Do you find it hard to explain your business in 25 words or less? Or feel like you’re constantly bumping up against an old guard in your industry who just aren't quite ready to recognise that the world’s changed?

Welcome business-builder, to another story of creating a business you love and all the crazy sh*t that happens when you do.

In the sharing of his business-building story Tom Maynard, Co-Founder of Amplify and I chat about:


Understanding the power of audience and influence, and trusting that where there’s an engaged community, money flows


The changed landscape of media


The challenge of scaling up and being responsible for people’s careers, while also being responsible for your own business growth


Making costly mistakes and the education it gives you


And why, when you’re ahead of the market, you just need to keep knocking on doors

We also spend some time talking about some of my own favourite topics;


Why brands and media businesses need to take a risk on content and not be afraid to get noticed


The recognition that creators are in fact media businesses, whether they have 1000 followers or millions


And why cultural shifts matter to all businesses

This chat is a reminder that you should always follow your instincts in business, and not be afraid to try something new.

A business podcast for the brave self-employed.

Growing your own business can be one of the most gratifying, wonderful, life-changing experiences around. It’s also scary as hell. This is a weekly podcast for the ones who have made the brave decision to employ themselves anyway.

We're for the full gamut of business experience - from Solopreneurs, Side-hustlers, Micro-business, Small Business, Medium business, Independent, VC backed, Bootstrapped and more - here for the real stories and priceless insights of it all, well beyond the PR headlines.

Join fellow business-builder Kim Kerton as she dives into the realities of starting something from scratch, helping you feel less alone in the lows and reminding you of the highs that make it all worthwhile. Hear real talk and raw feels from people right in the thick of it and feel seen as you listen.

Small business is tough - all business is tough - it will be one of the most intense things you'll ever do but it will also be the most impactful experience you can imagine. So surround yourself with a community of business owners willing to share with you their learnings, from those a few steps ahead, to many business milestones ahead, and even those just behind, and feel supported to build the business of your unique dreams. 

This is a podcast built to support you to build your own small business, to tackle the statistics and keep more of us in business for ourselves. To say thanks, you can support this independent podcast and small business by shouting your host a cuppa at buymeacoffee.com/unemployedpod
