The Time Angel

I always like to support local businesses and farmers’ markets.

We are proud to join the Scotland Loves Local campaign this week to celebrate Scotland Loves Local Week!

When we love local, we can create better places to live, work and visit. There are so many fantastic independent retailers in Angus, on our High Streets and in rural areas.

Where do you like to shop local?

Have you been feeling a bit stuck?
Here are our top 5 things to think about to help you fall back in love with your business:

1. Know your Superpower/USP/X factor
Why you and not your competitor? Do you remember your kick-ass attitude when you started your business? You just knew that you were the best in the industry, because …. Why? Why were you different: was it your techniques, your method, your personality, or your unique insight which set you apart from everyone else? Now flaunt it. Tell the world why you are different and why they should work with you. Find something that is unique and catchy.

2. Remember your ‘why’
Why did you want to start your business? What was the problem that you were passionate about solving? Can you remember the feeling of excitement, nerves and even fear of starting your business? What made you do it? It was likely not easy. What was the final deciding factor for you to launch your business? Remember those pain points you were set on solving solved for your customers and clients - they still need your help!

3. What are the results?
What do your clients experience once you have done the work for them? How do they feel, look or think differently after working with you? If you don’t know this, ask. Ask for honest feedback and you will be amazed at what they have to say about you. Use this feedback as testimonials for new clients too.
Remember - your brand is what others say about you when you are not in the room.

4. What’s in it for them?
Your customers should feel like VIPs when you deal with them. How can you better serve them? Do you respond to emails quickly, do you answer your calls, do you do the work and deliver it in the timeframe that you promised? Do you communicate processes, timeframes and delays to them? Do they feel like you care about them? If you serve your customers well and give them an all round experience, you will be in business for much longer than your competitor who is only in it for the money.

5. Do something nice
If you are struggling to get clients or not feeling of value, then help out a charity, help someone out or think about collaborating. There are no better endorphins than showing kindness to others. Who can you help today and make a difference in their lives? If you do it from a place of love, it will be all the more satisfying.

So next time you feel frustrated that you are not being appreciated, straighten your crown and celebrate yourself.
Fall back in love with your business, because the more you love what you do, and it shows, the more clients you will attract.

Get out there and own your turf! Do what you love, love what you do, be amazing and never forgot your own worth!

Some good advice from Johanna Basford here.

⭐️ BUSINESS ADVICE I thought about in a Kayak in Norway ⭐️ I set-up my studio pretty much straight out of Art School, 18 years ago. I’ve made some horrendous mistakes along the way 😩, but also learned some good lessons.

In my stories today I shared my top 5, but here’s a short version:

1. ☺️ Not everyone’s definition of success is the same. Financial wealth is some people’s idea of success, but it isn’t the only one. Pick yours.

2. 💪🏻 People at the top of their game are not necessarily more talented, better connected or even luckier than you. They probably just KEPT GOING.

3. 🍀 Luck is important, but you can make your own luck too. Take opportunities, say yes, ask questions… Make chances so good stuff can happen.

4. 💕 Listen to your heart / intuition / gut. Every bad decision I’ve made came from listening to my head over my heart. The logical choice isn’t always the best one.

5. 🤩 Be Nice and Work Hard. Your reputation and integrity matter. Build a great name for yourself and live up to it. AND WORK REALLY HARD.

Business isn’t all tough negotiations, aggressive pitching and cut throat commerce. It can be what you see here too. I’ve never thought of myself as a businesswoman, but here I am. Maybe you have an idea or a passion or something that could be A THING but like me, you don’t think you are a business person. I hope I’m the example that shows you that this doesn’t mean you shouldn’t pursue it.

Much love, Johanna x

Love your business – hate admin? What admin tasks would you prefer to delegate to someone else?

TO ALL OUR LOVELY MEMBERS - ACTION REQUIRED 🙏🏻

Your PBN committee are taking time out of their busy lives to do strategy planning day for PBN events and members tomorrow, Sunday.

Firstly from me, a massive thank you to all the committee who give their time voluntarily to run our network.
Deborah Hutchison, Kate Mason, Jan Deegan. Mrs Social Media (Magda), The Time Angel (Ali), Lynn Erasmus Van Vuuren, Caitlin, Rebecca.

We are putting together the space planning and schedule of events and would like to hear from our members on events you would like added in to the planning.

Firstly - spaces for events that our members ( or Perthshire business friends) would be willing to let PBN use for events. As our numbers have grown it would be amazing to use these spaces. This saves on PBN funds and promotes the business WIN-WIN.

Secondly, we want to grow our events list:-

1. If you would like to or are running your own event and want it published and promoted through PBN, please let us know in the comments below. Get it out there to all our membership.

2. If you are a business that would want to do a webinar to fellow PBN members let us know about this too.

3. If you are a member but haven't been to any events please tell us why? What would you attend?

We are so keen to ensure all our members feel valued with Perthshire Businesswomen's Network so please talk to us, send us information, interact with us, and let’s all support and promote each other.

We know the difference it makes feeling the support around you 🤗 👩‍💼.

If you are not a member but are thinking of joining - do it, be a part of something that builds your confidence and gives you support.

Excited to be involved again this season and to support the team on its SWPL1 journey.

MFC WOMEN WELCOME NEW SPONSORSHIP DEAL

Montrose FC Women are delighted to announce that the club’s management team will be sponsored by virtual assistant business The Time Angel and marketing/PR company 9016 for the next two seasons. The Time Angel’s Alison Gibb and 9016’s Robin Johnson became familiar faces around the club last season and wanted to cement their commitment with the new sponsorship deal.

“We are both impressed and inspired by the dedication of everyone involved with Montrose FC Women. We have enjoyed a good rapport with Craig and the management team from the beginning, so we are very happy to sponsor them,” says Alison.

Robin adds, “It’s not just the hard work on the pitch, it’s the inclusivity, kindness and commitment of everyone which sets MFCW apart. We are both proud to be associated with the club.”

Barry O’Neill, Director of Football said ‘We are absolutely delighted that Robin and Ali have chosen to sponsor the management team for the next two seasons. Partnerships like this are vital to the club. Without them, we simply couldn’t operate at the top level. It has been great to see Robin and Ali become so involved in the club over the last 2 seasons. Their passion is obvious, as they follow the team up and down the land each week. We look forward to our relationship flourishing over the next two years.
