Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Seal The Deal - The Secrets Of Live Selling REVEALED
Q: Is it just me or do you feel like you're driving in a sports car with the handbrake partially on, fear of going forward too fast, but holding yourself back a little?
The hosts relate to the tension between wanting to grow and managing the risks. They say they aim to grow responsibly and within their means, and suggest accepting a chosen pace while remembering that having many growth ideas is a positive.
Problem Shared, Problem Halved | Sara & Helen Solve YOUR Business Dilemmas
Q: I've been trading for two years and I still feel completely in the dark about my own finances. My accountant sends me reports and I'm not along, but I don't really understand them. I know roughly what's in the bank, but I have no idea whether I'm actually profitable or what my margins are. Is this just me or do most small business owners feel like that?
They say the owner needs to understand product costs, margins, profitability and other business expenses. They recommend asking an accountant or another numerate person for support, and suggest AI could help build a financial model if its answers are checked carefully.
Problem Shared, Problem Halved | Sara & Helen Solve YOUR Business Dilemmas
Q: I'm owed about 6,000 pounds across five invoices, and three of them are over 60 days late. I hate chasing because I feel like I'm being pushy, and I'm worried about losing the client, but I'm starting to struggle to cover my own bills. What do you think about late pays and how do you stop it happening again?
They say chasing payment is necessary, recommend contacting the client with empathy and offering a payment plan, and suggest stopping further credit while the debt is repaid. They advise pursuing a county court judgment only as a last resort and chasing as soon as payment becomes overdue.
Bitesize Business In Our Bonus Q&A
Q: My email list has 2,400 people, but open rates have dropped to around 14% and hardly anyone clicks. Is the list dead, or can I wake it up?
They advise keeping the list and improving the value and interest of the emails. They suggest using AI to brainstorm content, testing a new format, and analyzing opens, clicks and purchases to guide changes.
Bitesize Business In Our Bonus Q&A
Q: How can I let go and trust someone else with my work when handing tasks over takes longer than doing them myself?
Sara and Helen say delegation initially takes time because staff need training, but owners can free up capacity by accepting different approaches and focusing on the outcome. They recommend investing in employees so they can develop and take on more responsibility.
