Business Jesus And Sweet Tea: Heather Heuman Chats W/ Michael Stelzner, Nicole Walters & More On Social Media Marketing

Social media is ever changing and it does require us to consistently show up and be present. I'll be honest and say that that can be challenging when you're a solo business owner and trying to wear many hats throughout the day.  I like to see social media has something I can integrate into my every day and have it be fun vs. just something I have to do.  In today's episode, I want to talk about 4 things you can begin doing right now to stand out on social media.  These four things include :  1. Create 1 pillar piece of content per week that makes your audience smarter 2. Optimize your social platform by being consistent, responsive and engaging 3. Tag someone else of influence, or in recognition, when you’re being social 4. Have a clear call to action on how people can do business with you Let's chat in today's episode!

Work doesn't have to just be a place where people go because they have tasks they do and want to get paid. It is possible for work to be a place where people feel valued and want to contribute to the larger vision of the company.   When this shift is made, people feel cared for, trust and transparency are high and productivity changes.   Maybe culture doesn't feel like the highest priority on your list at the moment.   But I want to encourage you to listen to this podcast episode where I'm joined by Ron Harvey as he shares the fundamentals of a winning culture.

Are you tired of staying small in your business? Then it's time to stop playing small and step into the big plans God has for you and your business. You don't have to wear all the hats, particularly if there are keys places of your business that get left in the dust. I invite you to ask God to highlight places of your business that could use help. Maybe that means hiring someone to take over certain things. Or maybe there are areas that could use an extra dose of excellence as you walk in the marketplace.  Let's talk about it.
