3 Steps to Powerful Collabs & Partnerships

Season 1, Ep. 660

Hello and welcome back to the show - it’s Doone here - your host and Hype Girl. In these Friday episodes, we have a co-host joining us, Josephine, and every week we will be checking in to talk about what’s current and trending in the world of business with tips on how you could leverage that and what’s coming up inside the Facebook group.


This week, we have an exciting episode that’s all about leveraging the power of collaborations and partnerships to grow your business. I’m really of the opinion - and we constantly hear this on the show - that forming strategic collaborations and partnerships can be a game-changer for your brand. It opens new doors, expands your reach, and provides resources that might otherwise be out of reach. So, if you’re ready to learn how to create and sustain valuable partnerships that can propel your business forward, you’re in the right place.


We love this opportunity to chat with you directly, so don't forget: if you want us to explore something in more detail in the coming episodes - join us and drop into the group! You can find it linked in the show notes.


Let’s get into it, this is the weekly Hype Girl chat.

    Hello! It’s Doone here, your host and hype girl.I am so excited to bring you this special mini-series on the pod that is centred around failure. The next three weeks we are going to be diving in and reflecting on some of our favourite episodes that are all about embracing failure and turning it into your greatest asset - because we’ve all been there. Failing is literally just part of the journey whether we like it or not. For the first episode of the three-part series, I’m joined by Caroll Lee, Founder of Provenance Meals. Provenance Meals is a convenient solution for health-conscious people that don't have the time or energy to cook, designed by wellness experts and health-supportive chefs. In this episode we cover her journey to launching a second business and what she learned through the first time around, the power of starting small and building slowly, and advice for founders who are just getting started. If you have a story to share all around failure, we would love for you to share it in our Facebook Group. Come in, join us, and be a part of the conversation. Alrighty!
