184 – Let Go and Grow A Thriving Business with Julia Watts, Sample Room

Planning, Sales & Marketing

Do you ever feel like your business COULD grow if only you would stop doing ALL the things? 

In today’s episode, you’ll meet HerBusiness Network member Julia Watts.

Julia is the CEO of Australia’s Leading Pattern Making Business — Sample Room.

She has been part of our network for over a year and recently joined our Marketing Success Mastermind.

Julia has a sizeable business that she’s been growing consistently over many years.

In this interview, she takes us through the trajectory of:

  • Starting
  • Growing
  • Plateauing
  • Scaling

… her business from zero to a seven-figure business.

She also talks us through the mental shifts she took to step into the CEO role and let go of the tasks that kept her busy with unimportant work.

You’ll hear Julia explain that while she’s not afraid of setting and hitting financial goals, letting go of roles that she’d outgrown in her business proved a little more challenging than she thought.

You’ll see why even if they’re wearing all the hats at the moment and they’re feeling exhausted and overwhelmed, you too can start to let go and thrive in your business.

Ready to grow and scale YOUR six or 7-figure business?

The HerBusiness Network is currently accepting new members. But only for the next few days.
