Celebrating Your Wins, E-Commerce Basics and a Beer Quiz
Welcome back to the Couples Inc. Podcast! On this episode, we talk about the importance of celebrating your business wins. Design and web guru Katie Cooper-Bussell checks in with some ideas for selling your stuff on your website. We wrap things up with Jodie quizzing Glenn about beer. Thanks for listening!
Here's the BuiltIn article Jodie refers to.
The honey beer bread recipe is easy, even if you've never baked bread before. Delicious.
The article’s author gives three main reasons to celebrate your wins:
improves your mood and boosts confidence
it helps you stay focused on your goals
it fosters creativity and productivity
Add to those reasons a few Google AI pulled from the internet that also apply to your team:
· Boosts Motivation and Morale
· Creates a Positive Work Culture
· Enhances Team Cohesion
· Provides a Sense of Progress
· Improves Communication and Collaboration
· Increases Productivity and Retention
Now that we know the why we should and why we might not be celebrating wins, let’s discuss a few ways you can infuse some celebration into your business.
Let’s start with how you as a couple can honor these wins.
- On Friday night date night, Glenn and I will often toast to the past week and acknowledge some of the good things – professionally and personally
- Some people find gratitude journaling effective; but they might not always include work. That could be a good thing to add to the list of life events you are thankful for.
What about for your team?
- Team recognition like a special lunch can be a nice way to celebrate
- You can honor individuals with a recognition program or employee of the month
- Encourage others to call attention to team members who have had a win
For your business
- Share those success stories on your webpage or on social media
- Were you featured in an article or win an industry accolade? Frame that thing!
