298. Do my first episodes still hold up?

“Mostly yes!”

When I reflect on all the exciting things happening with the podcast, not only am I incredibly grateful, but it’s also really fun to look back at how it all started. So in this episode, I’m re-listening to my first handful of episodes and asking myself, “Do they still hold up?!” I thought before listening that I had a pretty good idea of what I said in these early episodes, but I actually kind of surprised myself sometimes!

Listen in as I share the details on what has stood the test of time… and what I have a new way of thinking about. Here’s a preview:

Stood the test of time:

  • 3 important things for your Instagram
  • Email signature
  • Directing people to a contact form on your website
  • Getting a Google Business Profile
  • Instagram caption ideas & social media schedulers
  • Automation ideas & endorsement for 17hats CRM
  • Profit First cash flow system

I have a new way of thinking about:

  • Some of the resources I created and mentioned in the early episodes
  • Business email accounts
  • Importance of styled shoots
  • Watermarking photos

 

I also share my episode plan for the year, in case you’re curious!

And in the UGlu Hotline, hear a tip for transporting framework in a personal vehicle.
