Hey there, my fabulous listener; welcome to episode 217 of the Small Business Made Simple Podcast. 

Thank you for lending me your ears today – I know you have lots of choices, so I sincerely appreciate me being one of them!

If you’re enjoying this podcast – I’d love you to take a screenshot and share it on your socials and tag me in it.  How cool would that be!

Don’t forget you can get the show notes for this podcast at www.socialmediaandmarketing.com.au/217

Before I get started on today’s episode – how did you go with last week’s episode? Episode 216? I chatted about business and marketing boundaries.  So many interesting conversations I had after that episode went live in DMs, emails and over wine with business friends too!  Setting Boundaries – you knew!  If you didn’t listen into that one – then once you are finished here – slip back there for even more small business made simple GOLD!

Oh, and can I ask a favour?  At the moment, I am collaborating with some amazing Australian thought leaders to do the first-ever BIG small business survey.  We want to amplify the voices of small businesses heading into 2023 to see what’s holding you back, where the biggest opportunities lay in your opinion and what you’d like to see done differently.  If you could take 5 minutes of your time to fill it in, I would be so grateful.  Additionally, if you leave your email (you don’t have to), you will receive of $500 worth of freebies from the 5 of us doing it.  My freebie is all about your marketing strategy and is exclusive to this survey – so worth doing just for that!  Here’s the link: https://bit.ly/SmallBizSurvey2022

Thank you for doing that.  Feel free to pass this on to your friends/family/audience if they are a small business too.  It closes this Sunday – 20^th November.

But onto today’s episode.

Holy crap, have I got a guest for you!  Today we are talking about web 3, NFTs and 21st-century tech with Nicole Brant Zawadzki – Nicole BZ!

A die-hard fan of all things creative, connection, and community BZ weaves her passions with her expertise empowering business owners and CEOs to make their dreams their reality. BZ has worked across the globe and industries and is currently obsessing over web 3 and making NFTs the next big thing in your business.

I can’t wait to share – so let’s get into it.

Ps – if you’ve been listening for a while, you will know this is a subject matter I have gone deep on this year – personally and professionally.  If you haven’t heard my solo episode on this topic – check out episode 175 – www.socialmediaandmarketing.com.au/175

Ok, now let’s get into my chat with Nicole.

INTERVIEW WITH NICOLE BZ

Now, did that chat make your heart race or head spin?!?!  I loved it and honestly couldn’t wait to share it – it jumped the line a bit so that I could bring it to you earlier than scheduled!

I’d love your feedback and thoughts- head to my Facebook group Like Minded Business Owners or DM me on Instagram or LinkedIn or email jenn@jenndonovan.com.au – I’d love to know your thoughts on what are big futurist topics.

As always, if you want to chat about setting boundaries or perhaps even a chat about showing up more in your marketing, book a discovery call with me http://bit.ly/Discoverwithjenn and let’s do that together.

Otherwise, let’s chat in my Facebook group – Like Minded Business Owners.  If you’re not a member, come join!

See you next week on the podcast for episode 218!

Please head over to https://bit.ly/SmallBizSurvey2022 and do the survey – and share if you can – the more numbers the better the stats we will have and the bigger difference we can make.

But in the meantime, let’s hang out on social and get social on social – you’ll find me on Instagram, Facebook and my fav LinkedIn.

Oh and before I go, do you have a subject you’d like me to chat about on the podcast or a guest I should interview?  Please get in touch – DM me, or email jenn@jenndonovan.com.au – thank you!

But whatever you do,
