Its the penultimate episode of season 3 and its another guest episode.
Today l am in conversation with Krissy from the baking business lounge.
Krissy has diversified her business and this has been a common theme that cake business owners do when they realise they do not have to rely on one source of income, but can use their knowledge and skills to help others by becoming a cake business coach.
We spoke about finding confidence, going full time in the business, pricing and using fresh flowers on cakes.
Also in this episode l reflect on the month of May in my business and how it’s been a challenging time for aspects of the business. I also discuss what's trending (or rather the lack of a clear cake trend in May
