I've just watched the Louis Theroux documentary on the manosphere.

Have you seen it?

I've been hearing about it over this week and decided to see what it's all about.

Now that I've seen it, I'm confused but also not surprised and somewhat disappointed.

It's true that to get more views, you need to be controversial. That can come in many ways and in this case being rude, misogynistic, exist, in fact anything wrong or bed seems to count.

Some things I did agree with, others not so much.

I do agree with creating your own life, following your own dreams but I feel these guys on the programme were, in themselves, confused and actually only playing up to the camera - do as I say not as I do scenarios.

Success is not all about the money.

I'm still trying to unravel what I've seen but let me male this clear - we are all individuals who have a place in society. You need to understand your identity and live by your values.

Your beliefs run your world - you can change them, if need be, based on evidence.

These influencers seemed like the only thing was to make money regardless of their own views. It didn't matter what they said so long as the content was controversial enough to get the views.

It is worrying that these people are role models and don't take any responsibility to the outcomes they are creating, so long as they're making money.

Their content encourages purchasing, what is questionable, especially when what they sell goes against what they say. Confusing?!

One said that you have to be good at selling but morals and values still have their place. Surely?! Or can you see the comparison with sales people you know?

Carry on the conversation....

Something I've noticed becoming more prominent these days is the requirement to have some kind of sustainability policy within your business before other businesses will even look at you.

Have you noticed this?

Do you have one?

In the corporate world, they call it CSR, corporate social responsibility.

Don't worry, I've got you covered.

In ProsprHub, not only do you get a safe and non-judgemental place to find solutions from your peers and get the accountability you need, you can also tick those boxes for CSR.

Our members support each other thus creating a community that align with the triple bottom line - people, planet, profit.

We involve the community of business owners, we are philanthropic, giving to local charity each month and we plant trees for the environment.

All this is included in your membership.

Be careful what you say to your potential customers.

Last week I had to buy a new tyre for the car. I'm not sure how but I managed to get a slow puncture, which I tried to see how long it would last - not long as it happens.

I was speaking to an acquaintance and the subject of the tyre came up. He mentioned a person who could help so I thought, great a trusted referral.

I got straight in touch. The quote came in. I've got to be honest, I was shocked! 😮

I expected the quote to be a little more than I found earlier as he was a mobile fitter, convenience with a price tag.

However, it was over £100 more, which was a 65% increase in the price. I responded that it was that much more and the reply shocked me even more!

He said I needed to be wary of cheap quotes as usually they scam you with tyres that may not be brand new, a part worn tyre and not run flat.

The quote I originally has was from multiple internet sites for high street names plus others, all were in the same ballpark.

I do my homework.

The product he was offering was not a premium product, it was the exact product I wanted and could be supplied by everyone else.

The only reason for the uplift, as he said, would be that he's mobile and you pay for convenience.

In some ways, I cannot agree as his overheads are a lot less than a fixed shop but it is more convenient.

He lost a customer that day and any other day in the future because of the way I was treated - I didn't feel welcome because I dared to highlight the anomaly.

I train in customer service and the way that was handled, in my opinion, was poor. He didn't even try to negotiate and felt justified in his pricing.

What do you think?

I'd love to hear your thoughts.

The importance of a small win.

When you're focusing on achieving your goals, you may lose hope or feel overwhelmed by the task ahead.

This means you actually lose focus and begin to procrastinate. The goal then seems to get further and further away with you feeling less happy with yourself.

The spiral begins, the direction of travel being downward.

It also means you're trying to do too much. Slow down, take a breath and review what you're doing.

Start to chunk down on the goal in question and make the task smaller.

Just now I was talking about the small wins with a client. He was talking chopsticks!

He's never used chopsticks before and the opportunity came up at the weekend to try.

Boom!

Success! OK, he didn't become proficient on his first go but he did make progress and more importantly, didn't go hungry.

He felt fabulous!

The quick win.

That quick win leads to more confidence. That confidence growth leads to more focus. That focus leads to achieving the new smaller task you set yourself.

That small win turns into the big win.

That goal is now within reaching distance all because of the small win. Try it now, surprise yourself, become more confident and more focused.

You've set your goals, now what?

You believe you can take the action needed to reach the outcomes wanted but then you stall.

Being alone brings the doubts, can I actually do this, am I doing the right thing, will this work?

The spiraling begins, the direction is down.

However, being a member of ProsprHub right now brings complimentary access to my accountability Zoom group where you will get the help you need to reach those outcomes. (Q1/Q2 2026 - standard price £125 per month).

The monthly subscription to ProsprHub is just £1 per day which also includes charity donations and tree planting to cover your CSR.

Having a coach in your pocket increases your chances of success but, be quick as spaces are limited.

Comment, message, DM, make it happen.

Working IN your business is one thing, working ON your business is another.

We are responsible for ourselves as there's no one else to turn to. That's why you need to set goals and follow through.

I'm not going to go through the goal setting process here but what you can do for accountability.

Again, it's better to be part of an accountability group as we are our own worst enemy and, given half a chance, we will not follow through!

Each week/fortnite/month you should be reviewing your performance - what have you done in that time, what issues are you having and how are you addressing them, what objectives do you have for the next period and what steps are you going to take.

Write it down, that way your brain understands action needs to be taken. Join ProsprHub and you'll get accountability via the app, but if you need more, I can help!

Are you ready to grow, in yourself and your business?

Comment, message, DM, do what you need to do to progress in 2026. Make this year count.

As a small business owner, as well as being a lonely place , you probably don't have a CSR policy in place?

A what, you may ask?

CSR stands for corporate social responsibility. That means you positively impact society within your operations which can include planting trees for sustainability and the giving to charity which improves your brand image and helps community.

At ProsprHub, we give to charity and plant trees each and every month as part of your membership.

This means that whilst you are a member, you are fulfilling your CSR without even thinking about it.

The charities are local, the trees are in the UK. It's a win win situation with so many other benefits.

If you're a business in Essex, join us now in this private members club, comment or message me for your invitation.

It's not for everyone but could be for you.

You know that feeling, getting to a certain point and unsure what your next move is?

It doesn't matter what stage your business is at, once you reach that certain point, the business stalls and remains stagnant.

The fact that you're alone in the running of your business doesn't help either. In fact, it makes it worse. It highlights the isolation and the feelings of loneliness.

You need support. You know your business, that's clear, you just need someone else to give you the nudge, to build up that confidence to carry on. After all, giving up is not an option.

How about a community ready to support. A group of people who can tell their story, who can give a piece of advice that helped them, an experience that gave you the knowledge you're not on your own and one that satisfied your business CSR requirements.

ProsprHub is the answer.

However, it's not for everyone. It is invite only, so very selective and being limited in numbers means it's your very own private members club, bringing the advantages that goes with one.

Comment or message me NOW and let's chat. It's your chance to build a community that you feel part of.

PS membership is open for Essex based businesses only

Being in business is a lonely place, no chats by the water cooler, just you and four walls.

It affects our mental health and if you're not careful, it can lead you down a path to depression.

That's why with membership to ProsprHub, we have monthly meet-ups, a safe and non-judgemental place for you to interact with fellow business owners. We also link up with other communities like today, walking and talking in nature.

The ProsprHub community is about connection and experience and it's all included.

To save your sanity and gain clarity within your business, apply now to join. It's invitation only and limited in numbers. Think of it as your private members club.

Message me, comment, friend me, anything you can to get that chat with me to join.
