The Business with Baking - Relationships and Baking

It's no lie - working for yourself is a full-time job, and sometimes that "full-time" can be closer to 24-7 rather than 9-5. 👀 That's why keeping an eye on the health of your business as it relates to those most important in your life is simply - good business.

Hey - business ownership is hard, and it can also feel lonely. But we don't think it has to. Using effective communication strategies, time management tools, and business boundaries is a recipe for relationship success - or at least put you on the path in that direction. 


Voicemails

  • Voicemail 1 (Text) - "While not official, it's likely that I will be moving my business within the next year once my husband finishes up PT school. I still want to keep growing my business here and invest in the community for as long as we stay, but I know this town isn't our long-term home. I'd love to start a group, but am worried about all the people that are local to me now becoming that dead weight you talked about once we move. Would you recommend starting a group now? Or would it be better to start in our new place where I will be starting to build a client base all over again? I'd love your input on the best strategy to make this effective! Thanks for all you guys do."
  • Voicemail 2 (Call): - Missy in NW Ohio - No conversions on her new website. What gives?!
  • Voicemail 3 (Call): Marjie - Handling spam comments on Instagram. To delete or not delete?
