Top Online Business Trends In 2022

Running an online business can be draining.

Especially in a global pandemic.

If you spent most of last year glued to the screen, working 13 hours a day, and wading through digital noise, you aren’t the only one.

2020 and 2021 were not kind to entrepreneurs.

But with a new year comes a fresh perspective.

And one big trend that we stand behind for 2022 is digital minimalism.

Digital minimalism means taking the time to look at how you’re running your business and think, “How can I best deliver to my clients/students?”

The “best” could look like rethinking your offers and seeing if they make sense in the context of your current clientele, clocking how much time you’re spending in front of a screen (and minimizing it), or simply ensuring that you’re making your processes cleaner, simpler, and more accessible for both you and your clients.

As female creators, our instinct is to add as much value as we can, create more and put as much out to the world as possible.

But today, the narrative is different.
Audiences now are all about quality over quantity.

And scaling back your digital elbow grease is one of the easiest ways to execute top-quality services daily!

So, if you want to hear our in-depth takes on the trend (and how you can apply it to your own business), as well as our input on several huge 2022 business trends, this episode is for you!
