Creating Social Impact Podcast with Kat Luckock

Facebook Groups are by far one of the best ways to build a community of ready-to-buy clients and customers. That's exactly what my client, Rhian Mills, Founder of Rested Mama, wanted to do when she joined my Aligned Sales Mastermind in November.
Rhian already had a big following on her Facebook page, but she'd heard that engagement was better in groups as that's what Facebook was pushing these days - communities.
So she created a plan for attracting existing and new audiences to her new Facebook Group, and within a month attracted over 450 new members.
I wanted to share her experience with you, as the process she used is perfect for anyone wanting to build or grow their own Facebook Group in a short period of time.
We discuss:

Why Rhian decided to start a group and her initial goal
What her specific strategy was for growing the group and how you can do this too
What worked really well with this strategy?
What doubts/challenges/fears she faced and overcame?
What she learnt from doing it?
How to give incredible value that gets people results without giving away all your best stuff for free
Summary of Rhian's top tips for others thinking about using this strategy

S1 Ep30: The power of small with Masami Sato

We discuss:

How Masami got started building a giving platform helping business make small but cumulatively powerful giving to impact initiatives they care about
How the global pandemic (covid-19) has affected their business in 2020
What B1G1 is and how it could work for your business
What Masami means by the “power of small”
Masami’s top tips for movement building

Masami was born in Japan but her desire to expand her horizons took her on a global journey. She became deeply concerned about the inequalities and other challenges that existed in the world. Since then, she has endeavoured to create real WIN-WIN connections across all cultures, people and organisations to realise a different world.
She has been a serial entrepreneur since 2001, starting and running several commercial enterprises all aiming to transform the way businesses are operated today. And by taking a completely new look at the power of giving, she founded B1G1 (Buy1GIVE1) in 2007.
Masami’s approach to life is very different. She brings a new, almost upside-down strategy to everything she does. And she also radiates it through her writing and speaking. She has authored four books including, ‘JOY - The gift of acceptance, trust and love’, ‘GIVING BUSINESS – Creating the maximum impact in the meaning-driven world’ and ‘Better Business, Better Life, Better World’.
Masami’s career has followed her diverse talent and skills having been a teacher, translator, natural food chef (and a farmer!), author and award-winning entrepreneur as well as a mother of two teenage children. She is also a two-time TEDx speaker.

S1 Ep32: Getting started on social media with Kaeleigh Macdonald

Kaeleigh started as an entrepreneur, after starting her Unpregnant Chicken blog, as an outlet for her feelings of dealing with infertility.
She then transitioned into the social media management and marketing sphere helping fertility brands reach their target customers in a way that was supportive to the circumstances that brought them there.
Now, after 5 years of working in the fertility sphere, she pivoted again to work specifically with socially responsible companies.
In this episode we discuss:

How Kaeleigh got started from a place of passion
Why she decided to pivot to working with socially responsible business owners in 2020
The importance of being authentic and aligned to your values
What an “enthusiastic buyer” is and how to attract and engage with them on social media
Authenticity and boundaries...getting the balance right
Top tips for getting started on social media (Kaeleigh assures me there’s lots of business owners who are only just starting on social media)
Kaeleigh shares some great advice on how to convert followers in to buyers
How to show up as the expert in your field, even if you're just starting out (...and getting over imposter syndrome)
