When I learnt about today’s guests, the mother and daughter duo behind Bixby & Co, it came with a little story - see Annie, the daughter in the duo, had been listening to this very podcast while considering her next step. She was listening to the stories of business builders and simply thought “why aren’t I doing that?”

And now here we are, hearing about her incredible business. Which has achieved so much in such a short time just by getting started. So if you have a desire to start your own thing or a motivation to grow your current business to whatever level you want – you’re in the right place.  

In the sharing of their beautiful jewellery business, Bixby & Co, you’ll hear about:
Tapping into the energy that eggs you on in business so you can keep pushing forward
Allowing yourself to make some mistakes in order to get started
The importance of in-person customer feedback
Just why brand-awareness is so very important
What failing fast looks like in practice
Teaching yourself the skills you need to get started and refining as you grow
And of the little moments of magic that add up over time

These two and their gorgeous jewellery are a lot of fun, you’re going to love this business building story.

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
