About Us
Hi, I’m Rachel, a former marketing exec turned small business coach. I launched Great Business in 2021 to fill a gap I saw in the entrepreneurial community. As a seasoned professional, I knew what it took to succeed in the business world, but I realized that many first-time founders were lacking the real, actionable advice they needed to get started. That’s why I created this site – to provide a supportive community and tangible resources for side-hustlers and small business owners just starting out.
I noticed that most business blogs and websites were offering generic advice that didn’t really resonate with me, or with the entrepreneurs I was meeting. They’d say things like “follow your passion” or “be innovative,” but they wouldn’t back it up with real numbers or examples. That’s why I decided to take a different approach. Every week, I break down the finances and strategies of a real founder, so you can see what’s working and what’s not. It’s not always pretty, but it’s real – and it’s what you need to succeed.
My goal with Great Business is to create a community that’s supportive, motivating, and most importantly, helpful. I want you to feel like you’re not alone in this journey, and that you have the tools and resources you need to overcome any obstacle. Whether you’re just starting out or you’re looking to scale your business, I’m here to help. Some of the topics we cover include financial planning, marketing strategy, and product development. We also have a weekly feature where we dive into the numbers of a real business, including:
- Revenue and expense breakdowns
- Marketing and sales strategies
- Product development and launch plans
