You know what they say, first impression matter… and that isn’t any different for social media! When someone stops by your platform, you have a matter of literally seconds to impress them or convince them to keep scrolling! And, one of the biggest mistakes that we see people making is NOT optimizing their bio in a way that will make viewers want more! Optimizing your bio is your chance to speak directly to the person you can help, tell them why they need your help, how you can help them, and then direct them to sign up or purchase the thing you offer to help them! It can feel overwhelming, but you just have to go back to the basics! So, grab your phone and pull out the ol’ bio! Let’s dust off the cobwebs and make it sparkle! ✨So that first line… WHO YOU ARE (your name/title)- This is the name field on Instagram, and it is separate from your user name! ✨WHAT YOU DO- This is your chance to tell the people exactly who you help and HOW you do that! ✨WHO YOU SERVE- Just in case your ICA (ideal client avatar)

⚠️ WARNING- Not another diet episode ⚠️ This time of year has most of us setting some unrealistic weight loss goals that will likely turn out to make us feel worse about ourselves. But, it is time to STOP doing this to ourselves...and that’s what this episode is all about! The Boss Ladies are joined by certified weight loss and life coach - Kwavi - to talk to us all about how much our mindset plays into our health and waistlines

We all know that girl on Instagram… she’s running an amazing business that is clearly her passion, her life seems perfect, and she’s raking in the dough! And, I’m sure we have all thought “if only I had more ____ I could be doing what she’s doing”, “she just got lucky”, or whatever other lies we tell ourselves to feel better. But, there is a lot that we don’t see her doing… that no one does. Running a successful business doesn’t come from luck (or Instagram followers). Behind every successful entrepreneur, there is a healthy and balanced regimen of habits that happen every day behind the scenes. If we don’t start changing the way we look at our business, and how we work on and in it, nothing will change! So, what are some simple things that you can start implementing today to take your business to the next level and increase productivity? ...We’re going to share our faves… in no specific order!  ⏰ Decide and Commit to Creating HABITS ⏰Time Block ⏰Batch Your Tasks ⏰Set a Timer For Tasks ⏰Get Clear on Prioritie
