Wise words, Barrie. The niche comment is an interesting one. Most new businesses are advised to niche. In my early days I found that difficult because I didn’t want to close down any opportunities. I’d say I do have a niche now, but it evolved over time. It wasn’t planned - it just happened.
I like the idea of niche emerging … many of the folk I speak to have been pushed into narrowing their focus way too early, in one particular case just to make it easier for someone to put what they do in a box. I guess if taking a direction is a freedom, it’s good, if it’s a constraint then it’s worth loosening the definitional boundaries a little. Thanks so much for reading, Andrew. Hoping Spring is springing for you.
It’s tricky. When people start a new business, we often lack confidence and experience so take on board advice without knowing if it’s right for your own peculiar set of circumstances. I guess you have to try and be brave to move on if it doesn’t work. Easier said than done.
Spring is springing. Bath have a very big match at The Rec this evening - v Saracens. 2nd v 3rd. My voice may be hoarse tomorrow. Hope yoy and JoJo are having fun.
So true ... that's one of the reasons I love offering the Sessions ... being able to offer a counter-perspective can unlock some confidence.
Good luck tonight - I know long-standing rivalries demand that I should begrudge Bath's progress but I really admire their style of play and I am rooting for them to disrupt the old order. Bon chance.
We're in good form, thank you ... life is gently unfolding, jut how we like it.
This thing you offer is generous, kind and powerful. I wonder, do you have a collection of all the things you've learnt from the sessions. A little book might be in order.. "Lessons from..."

Coming from a Glawster fan that means a lot! Glad you re both in good form - you seem to be judging from your online musings.

Such a cool idea, Debs, thank you
