It's really easy to fall into the trap of overworking & not getting the results you want.
I worked the 80+ hour weeks for years to reach the elusive "6-figures per year" goal.
But when I found out I was pregnant with my first son in 2018, I realized that I needed to figure out a way to leave my 9-5 job and go full-time in my business.
So I created a SIMPLE solution that my ADHD brain could understand & implement...quickly!
For the past 5+ years, I have taught this method to thousands of people, retired my husband in early 2022 from his 9-5 job & consistently work <15 hours/week while making 6+ figures.

When I found Steph, I had already spent 8 months searching for how to grow from an unprofessional blogger to a professional, recognizable business in my industry.
No one seemed to offer that 'secret sauce'—the guidance you need when you're trying to grow, but don't have enough time to do it all yourself or the money to hire help.
When I saw a bundle that she hosted, I immediately thought, 'This is the woman I need to learn from.'
And I was right!
Steph provided exactly what I had been searching for all year but couldn’t find anywhere else.
She’s been the missing piece I needed to take my business to the next level!"
....with some fun surprises mixed in 😉

How do you thank someone who stopped you from giving up on your business and helped you discover your true purpose?
For years, I was held back by a missing link that I couldn’t identify—until I worked with Steph Blake.
She helped me find it in a Mastermind where we shared our businesses, fears, and mindsets in a safe, supportive space.
Despite never having met Steph before, the experience was transformative. I’ve worked with countless coaches and invested significant time and money without seeing results, but none understood my mission and passion like Steph.
She grasped my "why" almost better than I did.
What makes Steph unique is how much she truly cares. She listens deeply and finds the simplest, most effective strategies to help you start or scale your business.
Thanks to Steph, I now believe I can build the business I’ve always envisioned. The outcome exceeded my expectations.

"Pinterest trends are nothing like trends on TikTok and Instagram. They're more like Google trends." - Heather Farris
In our latest episode of The Simple Business Show™, I had the pleasure of speaking with Heather Farris, a remarkable entrepreneur who turned her career from accounting and bookkeeping into running a thriving Pinterest marketing agency.
Heather's journey and strategic insights provide invaluable lessons for anyone looking to leverage Pinterest to grow their business.
Heather's professional path is anything but conventional. After completing her degree in business with a focus on accounting, management, and finance, she faced a challenging job market post-2008.
Discovering blogging and Pinterest in 2016, she quickly grew her blog's traffic using Pinterest, eventually pivoting to offer Pinterest as a service.
Her deep understanding of Pinterest as a user became her competitive advantage, leading to the creation of a full-service Pinterest agency and an educational membership program.
In 2019, significant changes in Pinterest's algorithm drastically affected many blogs' traffic, including Heather's clients', yet it was also a turning point.
Heather adapted by offering Pinterest education, sharing her tried-and-true strategies. Her commitment to consistent, foundational tactics enabled her to create a sustainable business model that's been life-saving and potentially life-changing financially.
Heather emphasized the importance of developing a solid keyword strategy and using Pinterest’s Trends Tool—crucial for understanding what your audience is actively searching for.
Keywords should be used strategically across your Pinterest profile, pins, and the content you create, ensuring your material appears in relevant searches.
Importantly, Heather advises thinking of Pinterest as a search engine rather than a social platform, designed to park your content where your audience can discover it when they need it most.
Many people mistakenly believe Pinterest is only for personal use, like planning weddings or finding recipes.
Heather challenges that notion, highlighting that businesses are behind the content people engage with on the platform. From lead magnets to service pages, any content that provides value can find an audience on Pinterest.
Heather recommends pinning daily but notes it’s far less time-consuming than maintaining a presence on Instagram or TikTok.
By scheduling pins in batches, leveraging Instagram content through Pinterest's new integration feature, and focusing on quality over quantity, businesses can maintain an active presence with minimal effort.
