You won’t have everything figured out from the start when building an online business, and in today’s episode Nadine is joined by Niamh Delaney, from Niamh Team Virtual, to discuss how to create an online freedom based business.

Niamh Delaney is a virtual assistant coach who helps ambitious women leave the nine to five and build online businesses that offer freedom, flexibility, and sustainable income.

Nadine and Niamh explore what it really takes to build an online business, from choosing services and deciding whether or not to niche, to understanding what being fully booked actually looks like behind the scenes.

They also go into personal branding, showing up online, maintaining long term client relationships, and recognising the difference between growth phases and maintenance phases in business.
