As someone who has known Cori for several years, I’m happy to promote this one day webinar you may be interested in attending:

Social media is great, but it’s not the only game in town, and it’s getting increasingly hard to get “seen”.

After creating huge success in her own business, Cori Josias has decided to share a strategy which has generated more sales than ever for her as a coach.

On Wednesday 9th at 5pm UK, she’s running a webinar called “Why Visibility Is Not the Problem and What To Do Instead.” (More dates are available).

A lot of businesses know they should be posting more on social media, but creating good content consistently takes time that they simply don’t have.

I’ve been working with a small, keen teen in India who have been fantastic at supporting me with my social media video content. They’re currently building a service to help take creating content off your hands by producing engaging videos and social content, while managing the posting, to help keep your online presence active and growing without you having to constantly be behind the camera.

If you think this could be helpful to you, let me (Suzanne) know and I’ll put you in contact with my team. suzanne@advantagesofage.com

Now Let's Build the Next Version.]]>https://www.getworkdone.club/p/youve-got-your-business-this-farhttps://www.getworkdone.club/p/youve-got-your-business-this-farWed, 15 Jul 2026 09:13:29 GMTYou’ve proved you can build a business. But perhaps it’s not delivering the financial rewards, confidence or freedom you hoped for.

Many business owners reach a point where working harder is no longer the answer. The business that got them started isn’t necessarily the one that will take them where they want to go next.

In this free one-hour masterclass, you’ll discover why this happens, how to recognise when your business needs redesigning, and how other founders have deliberately built the next version of their business.

Whether your goal is greater profitability, more confidence in your decisions, or a business that better fits your life, you’ll leave with practical insights and clear next steps.

You’ll learn:

  • Why many businesses become harder to grow after the first few years.

  • How to recognise when you’ve reached a natural transition point.

  • A simple way to think about designing the next version of your business.

So Why Does It Feel Like It's Working You?]]>https://www.getworkdone.club/p/your-business-works-so-why-does-ithttps://www.getworkdone.club/p/your-business-works-so-why-does-itMon, 06 Jul 2026 08:33:09 GMTI keep having some version of the same conversation with clients lately.

Different sectors. Different models. Different revenue. Different ambitions. But the same thing underneath.

They have clients. They have revenue. They’ve built something that works.

And now they’re asking a harder question.

How do I make this work better for the next stage? Not how do I start. Not how do I find my first customer. But how do I stop being busy with work that isn’t taking me anywhere? How do I earn more without just doing more? How do I spend less time firefighting and more time building? How do I make the business support the life I want instead of eating it?

(I’m digging into this properly in a live masterclass on July 15th — more on that below.)

I’ve thought about why this moment keeps showing up.

Most businesses start by responding to opportunity. A customer asks, you help. Something sells, you offer more of it. A referral comes in, you say yes. You build a reputation, a network, a way of working, a list of clients.

Nothing wrong with that. It’s how good businesses get built.

But over time the business turns into a mix of deliberate choices and things that just happened. The client type you kept because they paid on time. The service you kept offering because it brought money in. The pricing you set back when you had less confidence. The marketing you still do out of habit. The tasks only you do because at some point that seemed easier.

Eventually the business outgrows its own first draft.

Same passion, different business

One client built a walking-tour business around her love of local history. It started with one route around the 1908 Olympic site in west London, one ticket link, and a willingness to try something she cared about.

It grew into a real business. More walks. An email list. Repeat customers. Corporate bookings from companies wanting something different for their teams. Revenue climbing steadily.

But growth brought its own mess. Corporate clients paying late. Walks nobody booked until the last few days. More admin than she’d signed up for. A creeping sense that the business was running her, not the other way round.

So we dropped the vague question. Is this working? Obviously it was.

The real question: what’s working well enough to build around?

Which tours actually made money? Which clients brought the best work? Which parts gave her energy, and which created pressure for no good reason? What could be simplified, automated, or just stopped?

She cut what drained her. Doubled down on what worked. Made room for the parts of the business she actually enjoyed.

Her income from the walks is now about ten times what it was when she started. Not because she worked ten times harder. Because she got deliberate about what deserved to grow.

Effort isn’t the same as traction

Another client left a City job to build a consulting business. He had clients. He was earning. He was also networking constantly.

“I was networking my arse off,” he told me.

He did all the sensible things: met people, followed up, helped, shared ideas, kept conversations alive. But a lot of the work landing in his lap wasn’t the work he wanted to build around. Early-stage founders after a chat. Smaller jobs that didn’t use his best skills. People who ate up time without ever becoming real clients.

The bigger, better-paid transformation work he actually wanted just wasn’t showing up the same way.

The problem wasn’t effort. His activity was producing exactly what it was built to produce. His networking, his marketing, the story he told about himself, all of it was attracting work he’d already outgrown.

So we mapped it out properly. Who were his best clients right now? What were they actually paying him to solve? Where had they come from? What made those jobs different from the ones he didn’t want anymore?

Then we looked at the work he wanted more of. The gap was obvious. He needed different conversations, different rooms, different language, a sharper way of positioning what he does.

Working harder at the wrong activity doesn’t create traction. It just gets you more of the wrong activity, faster.

📍 Live Masterclass — July 15th 10:30am - 11:30am BST
You’ve Got Your Business This Far. Now Let’s Build the Next Version.
For business owners with clients and revenue who know the current version of their business isn’t the one they want to keep building. You’ll leave with a clear read on what’s actually making you money, what’s quietly draining you, and what to change first.

Not broken. Just outgrown

Here’s the question I keep coming back to: what in your business did you actually build on purpose, and what just happened while you were busy making things work?

That’s not a criticism. Getting a business to the point where it has clients and revenue takes courage, persistence, judgement, and a lot of learning the hard way.

But the version that got you here isn’t necessarily the version that gets you where you want to go next.

The answer isn’t always more marketing, more networking, more content, more hours. Sometimes the most useful thing you can do is stop and actually look at the business.

What’s genuinely making money? What’s eating too much energy? Which clients are worth building around? What could you drop? What needs simplifying before you grow? What would make this thing more profitable, more sustainable, and honestly more enjoyable to run?

My work with clients usually comes down to three things. Clarify what’s actually happening. Simplify what’s making money and making sense. Multiply the parts that deserve to grow.

That’s what I’m covering, live, on July 15th 10:30am BST: You’ve Got Your Business This Far. Now Let’s Build the Next Version.

This is for owners who have clients, revenue, and proof the business works, but know the current version isn’t the one they want to keep building. You’ll walk away with a clearer read on what’s working, what’s gotten needlessly complicated, and what needs to change first — plus a straight answer to the three questions above, applied to your own business.

Not generic growth advice. Not a demand to work harder. A real chance to step back and decide what the next version of your business needs to be.
