Happy Friday one and all! Its been another busy week here at Northern Star Strategy Towers, and here are some highlights… 1 win - I got a lovely new lead magnet out for a client this week! We had a few tech challenges with this one, but we’ve found a way through and now it’s out in the big wide world ready to grow her email list. 1 learn - Again, this wasn’t a fresh learn and really more of a reminder to me. If you’re consistently trying with one approach and not getting the results you want, there is absolutely no shame in shaking things up and coming at it a different way. Thats what’s just happened with one of my lovely clients. Now it’s a case of keeping a really close eye on the KPIs so we can see if our new strategy is working 📈🤞🏻 1 goal - Next week I have some pretty big milestones for an important project for one of my clients. My goal for next week is to get everything ready for each of these milestones to ensure that we don’t just hit them, but that we smash them. No pressure then Jen… 😳 Have a great weekend everyone! I have a belated birthday celebration day out with some friends tomorrow (not for my birthday!), so I am very much looking forward to that! 🍜🥂🧉🍹 #launchandfunnelstrategist #weeklywin #weeklylearn #weeklygoal Pic of me from a photoshoot when I first set-up my business - one of the best investments I ever made! Especially as I’ve looked too frazzled this week to take a photo to share! 🫣

You don’t want to start another year without a clear plan that’s going to get you from where you are right now to where you really want to be. So come and join me in London on November 6th or Edinburgh on November 29th where we will get your 2025 strategy clearly mapped out. We will get clarity on that dream and then work out exactly what you need to do to get you there. It’ll be a day of deep diving into your offers, your financial targets and your sales & marketing strategy. It’ll be a busy but productive day so I promise to keep you fed & watered throughout. I’ll even throw in a cheeky glass of fizz before you head home so we can celebrate the year ahead 🥂 Let me know if you fancy Edinburgh or London and I’ll send you the details 🩷 #strategyday #planforsuccess #workonbusiness #2025planning

Happy New Year Fellas 2025 is here, and it's already in motion! 🚀 While many are still in planning mode, time waits for no one. Those goals you wrote down? They won't achieve themselves. As a designer with Dgazelle Digital, I've learned that the gap between dreams and reality isn't talent or resources - it's consistent action. The truth is, we often overcomplicate our journey to success. We wait for the perfect moment, the right opportunities, or complete readiness. But here's what I know: Starting imperfectly today beats waiting for perfect tomorrow. The year is already running. Your goals aren't going to chase themselves. So, what's it going to be? - That design skill you want to master - The portfolio you need to build - The career transition you're planning - The business idea you've been nurturing Pick one thing. Start today. Start small. But most importantly, START. Let's make 2025 the year of doing, not just planning. Tag me in your journey. Let's get on the trenches and grow together. 💫

Transform your events into landmarks of success by mastering Vision & Goal Setting! 🎯 Start by defining clear success metrics that align with your vision. Next, craft a detailed action plan to make your year's events not just memorable but truly impactful. The secret? Begin with the end in mind and reverse engineer your path to triumph. 🌟 What's one specific goal you have for your next event? 🚀 #EventPlanningSuccessTips #EventVision #GoalSetting2024

Run your race. Over the weekend, in honor of the Derby, we watched Secretariat with the boys, and ugh, I love that movie so much. Every time we watch it, I find something else to love about it. What resonated with me most this time was when Penny Chenery's dad says, "Let him run his race." I'm a big believer in the importance of repeated messages--the idea that if you keep hearing the same message over and over from different places, you'd better listen, and "Run your own race" keeps popping up in my life. Do I run my own race? Not enough, if I'm being honest, and I'd really like that to be different. I'll be the first to admit that I've always been a big compare-r, even as a kid, and when they say "Comparison is the thief of joy," they're not kidding. It's also the thief of living your own life, doing what you're made to do, and being successful in the way that means most to you. It can be hard, especially when we factor in social media, to keep from comparing yourself to other people and what they're doing. I don't need to remind you that social isn't real life (although I do sometimes need to remind myself.) So maybe you, like me, need the reminder to run your own race. Do what you're here to do. Do whatever your next right thing is. And if you find yourself overcomparing, spend some time getting back into why you're doing what you're doing, why you're made to do it, and what that means to you. Turn off your phone and take a brainstorm walk. Have dinner with a friend who energizes you. Do some big dreaming with a vision board. Get a mastermind, a coach, or someone you can rely on to help you run your race. Don't worry, we'll be back to our regularly scheduled ranch and beef content soon (our first branding is this weekend!) but in case you needed a reminder this morning, here it is: Run your own race. (or walk it, if you're not a runner. That's okay too.)

The middle-class 2024 wrap-up? Since yesterday, my feed is flooded with grand, rosy wrap-up posts where everyone is flaunting their achievements. Earning millions, getting tons of engagement, visiting dream destinations, and what not. I'm happy for them. But then there are people like me, who fall short of these standard "year done right" indicators. So, we do it our way. Here's how I'll remember (and flaunt) 2024: 🥂I optimized my LinkedIn profile, finally! I had been wanting to do this for so long but mustered the courage only last November. 🥂I overcame the fear of putting myself out there. God, I published my first post with my heart racing like a wild horse. But I did it. 🥂I started networking with people. It felt tough at first but became easier when I applied the same principle I use in real life:  building genuine, value-based relationships instead of superficial small talk-ships. 🥂I started commenting on posts. Earlier, I used to hesitate, thinking my comments were not half as good as those of the big names. But this year made me realize my opinions are equally valuable and share-worthy. This is my small-scale, not-so-fancy wrap-up that I'm grateful for. Here's to writing a grander, fancier post for my 2025 wrap-up!
