Business Bites: Being Weird Together

Kat

May 31, 2013

Being friends with other bloggers is totally awesome. I was reminded of this just yesterday when I had a lunch date with the gorgeous Emily of Fashion Foie Gras, who I met at the Cosmopolitan Superbloggers Masterclass. It's the same as when I hang out with Gala and Shauna (19 sleeps and counting!) because we don't have to worry about feeling weird wanting to photograph our outfits or document our hang-out, talking through the benefits of twitter vs facebook or discussing the latest internet drama. To us this is all totally normal behaviour!

Business Bites: Starting Over

Kat

May 24, 2013

I've learnt a lot about what it takes to launch a new business of late. Not so much with Rock n Roll Bride, which I kind of fell into by accident, but with The Blogcademy, the bloggers workshop that I launched with Gala and Shauna in the latter part of last year. Its actually really crazy to think how far we've come, the lessons we've learnt and the changes we've already made (to the promotion, the online presence and the curriculum that we teach!) but it's been really valuable having to do it so quickly.

Business Bites: Magazines & Mini Meltdowns

Kat

May 10, 2013

Yesterday Gareth & I hotfooted it to Brighton for a mini shoot with the inimitable Lisa Devlin for our magazine. Did I mention that I'm working - hard! - on the next issue right now? Oh yes, I am soooo super excited about it because I just know it's going to be even bigger and better than the last two editions. I'm actually taking the idea in a brand new direction and I'm super duper psyched to see what you all think about it! Onwards and upwards and all that...

Business Bites: Taking an Interlude…

Kat

March 1, 2013

Here are this week's links to keep you learning. Have you read anything great in the past seven days? I'd love for you to share your links in the comments (or hit me up on twitter). I'm actually taking a two week hiatus from Business Bites after this post because I'm off up a mountain with my family (Lord, give me strength). But I'll be back and fit to bursting with new goodies nearer the end of the month. I am genuinely looking forward to a proper holiday though (i.e. one that's not coupled with a work trip as well) and I'm sure I'll be raring to go as soon as I get back.

Business Bites: Strive to Learn

Kat

February 8, 2013

Compiling this list of inspiration and business snippets is one of my favourite weekly activities. I always learn something new - often many things! Always strive to learn and better your understanding of how to best run your business, whatever level you're at... In other news, I'm being interviewed by Exposure Radio at 1.30pm today. If you fancy listening in you can stream it live here (must not swear, must not swear, must not swear...)

Business Bites: We’re all Still Alive Right?

Kat

December 21, 2012

I would imagine that most of you are winding down for Christmas today, and that if you haven't knocked off already then today is probably your last day of work. HURRAH! But the internet has been awash with great business advice this week - I think everyone's thinking about next year and how they're going to make everything so much better! Assuming the world hasn't ended today (we're all still here right?) let's use this new age to make our 2013 plans. I'm personally so ready to forge into 2013 with renewed vigour!
