🧡Be TERRIFIED, but show up anyway. That’s the biggest lesson I’ve learned from a woman I am now humbled to call my friend, Lucy Millar. I first spoke to Lucy when she just launched her start-up. Just as the *Event* of 2020 gained momentum across the UK. 👑 Lucy has been showing up for her business day in and day out. She has treated marketing her business as an investment – making weighed decisions but taking on new challenges and learning curves with stride. Content marketing – “never done it, but let’s try.” Google ads – “Yikes, but can’t skip it” Social ads – “Gotta give it a chance.” Influencers – “Game on.” ❗What I’ve noticed sets her apart is that she doesn’t just dabble. ❗She has consideration for the conversion cycle, her funnels and lead times. She makes (or at least tries her damnedest) informed decisions. Her latest initiative is a crowdfunding campaign supported by Women's Enterprise Scotland. And yesterday, Lucy and Rùn Dog Food showed up again, despite gut-wrenching discomfort 🤢 (for the human, anyway). 📺They showed up on STV Group plc prime-time news to speak about the challenges female entrepreneurs face and the lack of support available specifically to their demographic. 🌟To every business person who shows up daily despite discomfort, stress and exhaustion – know you are an inspiration🌟 #ScotlandIsNow #SmallBusinessGrowth #StartUpNation #MadeInScotland https://lnkd.in/eU-c-FJi
