Or Subscribe On Your Favourite Device

Do you remember how lonely it was when you first started your business? Maybe you still feel that way! Well, if you didn’t already know, there are 70,000+ other solo and micro-preneurs in Australia that form an online community called Flying Solo.

In this episode of the Tradies Business Show, we chat with the editor of Flying Solo, Kelly Exeter.

Kelly started her writing career by completing a sports science degree! Not only that, but she then started her own graphic design business in conjunction with her husband, Ant (who she credits in the opening of her book, ‘Your Best Year Yet‘, and apologises to for being a “massive pain in the arse”)

Kelly has a blog at A Life Less Frantic and shares her insights and tips on:

  • working with your spouse
  • surviving today’s fast-paced lifestyle
  • overcoming fear and self-doubt when starting something new or growing a business and
  • recovering from the loss of 5 years of blog articles!

Nicole Cox

Whether you’re a plumber, electrician, builder, motor mechanic, landscaper, tiler, glazier, painter, carpenter, concretor or any of the myriad of trades and contractors that keep the world running, this podcast has been produced with you in mind. Your host, Nicole ‘Nic’ Cox, was born into a tradie family and has first-hand experience of the gut-busting, money stress and pressures that trade businesses can place on their owners and their families! Nic strongly believes in the opportunity that exists for all tradie business owners to create a flexible, financially secure business for now and for their families’ future. She interviews guests on a range of topics such as marketing, finance, human resources, legal issues, mindset, motivation, physical and mental health, industry updates and more! Nic loves a laugh and a good story, so tune in for a unique look at how to ‘get off the tools’ and break the cycle of financial hardship and stress to create the trade business you really wanted!
