Making Solo Business simple (enough) to keep going growing.
Solo Business means the business direction, decisions, and delivery are all done by one (human). True. A Solo Businesses is still a Solo Business, and can be an even better Solo Business for working with other (humans) for specific pieces and projects. Here, we make our special Solo Business (Human) available to play a part in a piece or project in your Solo Business.
Sometimes simple enough is enough to move forward.
We’ve written this love letter sales page service of simplifying to some (enough) more times than we’ll say aloud, and still it felt too same same and too different to be kind to your mind (yes, there’s too same to turn off and too different to turn us off…we’ve learned not to do both).
So instead, we decided to do as we do here and make it weird 🤭
And as we also do, we make it clear and let you in on a little of the thinking behind it for you to know (enough) of the thinking behind it.
We’ve pulled the bottom to the top and the (typical) top to the FAQs.
If you too find it kinda refreshing to know what to expect upfront, then we may just be a good fit in working together.
And one more thing…
…we’re not selling anything here.
You have to buy in before you buy to work with us.
Okay, a short story to show enough to day, ‘hey we are are the kinda weird that works and we’re the kinda different that works in ways we can’t put our finger on’.
Below you can book or buy.
Before you do, we suggest walking around the website for a bit. Maybe starting with the Podcast or pulling up and penning your ideas onto one of our Articles (that’ll make more sense when pop over there) and then, when you have bought into the idea the way we work with words to lighten your 🧠 learning curves and to grow your thinking behind your Solo Business, then come back here to pick your preferred way forward.
“Truth time. In the beginning I bought a bunch of stuff that was bundled and packed into containers of courses, communities, and all the things in between. With time and (too much) money I realised I was buying a promise of hope and when it come to making the promise practical, doing it in an 8-week self-paced community supported lifetime access offer felt good for in the beginning.
Chasing the feeling of feeling good didn’t move my business forward, and soon I found others who were saying the same.
So, business by business, we worked together to find a way it could (it can) work which has led us here, the place and space where the confidence that it’s possible and practical for Solo Business to be a part of something bigger is only but growing from here.”

Your 🤟 Options
OPTION 1
“Honestly, if I’d known how long it would really take to get where I before I started, I’m pretty sure I wouldn’t have started. But, where i am now and what I know now is more than what I thought would’ve thought possible.”
—words uttered almost two years after deciding to begin in business.
Solo Business Mentor

OPTION 2
“I could have totally done this myself, but I hadn’t. Now it’s done, I can see why I knew I had to do and why I kept putting other priorities before it.”

Solo Business Thought Partner
Thinking 🧠 🧠 🧠 🧠
Doing 🧱
A heads up, a thought partner is not for the faint hearted. With that said, if you’re already in Solo Business and you want to work with a fellow Solo business (human) who hold their own sense of sense while working with full awareness of you growing your own sense of self through (actually) building out the thinking behind you Solo Business (maybe for the first time), nutting out or navigating something specific, or talking the tough talk about realities you want to realise aloud with someone ‘who knows’, the our Solo Business Thought Partner option is for you.
“I’m so sick of talking about what I need and what I need to do because when I’ve gone to do it and it’s done (blah!). No one can tell me what I’m supposed to do with it now that I have it!”
—the frustrated feels that come flying at us when we share aloud that we (actually) can grow the thinking (e.g., business model) behind Solo Business and (actually) can walk Solo Business through where each part lightens the Solo Business 🧠 load in the day-to-day directing, deciding, and delivering.
OPTION 3
Solo Business Projects
Thinking Range from 🧠 to 🧠🧠🧠🧠
Doing 🧱 🧱 🧱 🧱
Solo Business Projects are where we always suggest starting. Each Project is so small it’s doable. Little by little in the space and place that works with the way you work, you can grow your own thinking behind your Solo Business by leaning on some of our knowing or building our your own with the builds we’ve made buildable.
“A group of us that started in business around the same time we were (and still are) often met with confusion or screwed up faces when we uttered aloud that we wanted to grow our business to be a Solo Business. ”

So often (too often) Solo Business has been crowded in with small and micro business, freelancing, all the prenuers and more. While they can overlap or be close business cousins, they’re not the same as Solo Business.
We believe the key sign of a Solo Business is:
Regardless of the business registration type, a Solo Business is an entity that’s directed, decided, and delivered by one (human) who makes at least one product or service of their own making available for purchase.
We also believe and buy into the idea that Solo Businesses are a bee’s dick (yup, a real metric to measure) away from leading the way business plays a part beyond the business.
And while we can work with other business types, it’s takes different resources to shift our focus of ‘all being done by one in Solo Business’ to other ways of working in business.
If you are keen and curious to see if we can work together and what that could look like, please call on 0447 030 962 or email kathy@littlelanguagematters.com.au

The ‘we’ is me (Kathy Rast) and Little Language Matters*
The thinking behind this is a kind to the mind way of keeping front of mind that I (Kathy) am a part of my Solo Business.
It seems small and it is on the surface, but’s out back is we’ve (both in our business and the businesses we work with) have grown in ways that were practical until they were.
We get it and believe you will too as you grow your thinking behind your Solo Business.

Two points.
Language works because in a clear context. The context we’re working in here is Solo Business.
We couldn’t turn it off if we tried (And we’ve tried), which means here that we lighten some of the thinking and some of the doing by applying the language lens both in the processing, preparing, and packaging of each Solo Business resources (aka products and services).

Yup. On the blue business moon we may meeting a regularly returning client in the working wild.
Questionable Questions
“Everything moved forward when we started to move away and unsubscribed from the conversations continually telling and selling the ‘how to’ and ‘what to do’ in business and instead really sat with the idea that maybe we have most (if not all) of what we need now and that we can work (better) with what we already got. The difference was it just needed to be a simple enough to keep going.”
