The Boss Mom Podcast

Welcome AMAZING BOSS MOM We are so glad you found us because that means you have a burning desire to create something in this world...something that positively impacts people AND also makes you money. You are in the right place. Here at Boss Mom, we know all too well the challenges of raising babies and businesses at the same time and you need more than just great resources (which we have) you also need a strong support system (we have that too). Just like all moms you need a simple business because life is complex and you should never have to apologize for having a sometimes unpredictable schedule. You can build a really successful (and profitable) business in 15 hours a week, you just have to know how (and we are going to show you). We interview amazing ladies who share their struggles and successes as well as solo episodes where I guide you through our Nurture to Convert System designed to help Boss Moms raise their business and babies at the same time. I'm Dana Malstaff, founder and CEO of Boss Mom LLC, and I'll be your host.

Growing up and as a young adult, my dad was always telling me to "dress for the job you want." And honestly, I was always pretty resistant to it.

 

But years later, I've come to believe that this phrase is one of the most important phrases to live by and embrace as entrepreneurs.

 

In this episode I'm going to share why I changed my mind about this particular phrase, and how I think you can apply it to how you're living life and doing business.

Recently we unveiled the brand new Boss Mom Website, including a fabulous new resources page created to help you clarify which tools you need and when you need them, depending on where exactly you are in your business.

 

As your business, products and services morph and grow, the tools you need will likely change too, but figuring out how they should change and in what order you should start and stop using tools can be tricky to figure out.

 

In this episode I'm going to help you gain confidence in choosing the best tools for where you're at and help you feel good about the money you're spending, by breaking down six questions to ask yourself when making these decisions.

Facebook ads are something we all know we’ll need to use at some point in our business journey, but it can be really challenging to figure them out because we either don’t have someone showing us the way OR they just aren’t our jam.

 

Well, if Facebook ads have ever had you crying on the bathroom floor, you’re going to love this episode because I’m joined by the lovely Becky Burgess, owner of Splash Owl Media, a social media marketing agency specializing in Facebook, and she’s providing tons of answers to the loads of questions I threw her way (that I’m sure you’ve been wondering yourself too!)

In this episode I'm going to walk you through the 3 main things you need to know before creating your programs, and the 3-phase process you need to move through when creating your offerings.

In this episode I’m joined by Julie Ford, a certified coach, trainer and author of Creating Time & Energy, a workbook that supports “crazy busy” working parents so they can live more “intentionally full” lives and enjoy every stage before the kids leave the nest ready to live well.

 

Throughout our conversation, you’ll hear Julie share her unique journey through Boss Mom life, how she learned to roll with the punches and make lemonade from lemons, and how she’s funneling her passions into helping women just like you and me create more time and energy for the things that matter in life.

In this episode I'm joined by video and YouTube strategist Trena Little, whose passion is helping online business owners create a video content strategy that works for their business.

 

Being a busy business owner herself, Trena understands the importance of making video simple and painless, but effective and lasting.

 

I just love that she describes her Youtube videos as being her "sales team" and they do the heavy lifting for free (seriously, how cute is that?!)

 

By the end of our chat together, you'll hear it become really clear to me that I want to jump in with Youtube (pssst, Boss Mom TV anyone?!) and whether you're already doing video in your business or not, I know you'll walk away with some valuable tips and strategies to leverage Youtube in your business.
