S2E28: Thank you, 2020
We all know that 2020 wasn't the best year, but it certainly had its fair share of great memories.
We have been with our podcast for 3 years, but 2020 was the official year we began running Fempreneur Secrets as a business.
Here's a tribute to our 2020
Listen to the Episode below:
In this episode, you'll hear about:
Our honest truth about running Fempreneur Secrets this 2020
Some of our future plans for Fempreneur Secrets
Here's a tribute to our 2020
After I recorded this episode, my team and I went through the year’s statistics to see how we can grow for 2021. As this was undeniably our very first official year, we did not expect a lot of big numbers. To our surprise, we had great results this year. While we honestly can improve in our revenue generation, we always remember our MISSION and seeing these numbers are truly inspiring for 2021.
420 Entrepreneurs Groomed
We didn’t want to leave our business future to chance. We went out of the way to reach out to organisations who wanted to support entrepreneurial movements. We were blessed with the contract to train self-employed persons who wanted to improve their business. Throughout the year, we have collectively groomed 420 entrepreneurs (men, women and others).
140 Hours Spent Training Entrepreneurs
The 420 entrepreneurs above spent more than 140 hours with us, gaining clarity in their business, planning a strategy for their digital marketing efforts and even learning how to collaborate with one another. We’ve also spent time flying from Singapore to Brunei to train qualified leaders in their companies to be better marketers with “intrapreneurship” skills within them.
5 Media Mentions
For a company as young as ours, we never anticipated having had multiple media mentions.
In March, we were interviewed by Borneo Bulletin and Progresif Radio.
In May, we were picked up by Singapore media, Detik (under BERITA Mediacorp) with our first TV Interview.
Just a few weeks after that, we were interviewed by Marketing in Asia as a feature on their online publication.
In August, we were picked up by Berita Harian, a local newspaper
While these are the 5 media mentions we had, I also had the opportunity to be interviewed on Podcast shows and Facebook LIVEs of fellow entrepreneurs in Singapore and the rest of the world.
15 Women Entrepreneurs Interviewed
As you may already know, we began our journey with Fempreneur Secrets Podcast. When lockdown or quarantine or Circuit Breaker was put into force in June, I began Fearless Fempreneur LIVE Show where I picked the minds of talented, skilled and fearless women entrepreneurs in Singapore and beyond.
I had a blast learning from each and every single one of them, no matter how long they have been in business. We did interview more than 15 women entrepreneurs, but these 15 were the ones whose episodes were published officially. The rest will be published from January 2021 onwards.
5 Webinar & Keynote Presentations
I must say, this was by-far the most exciting experience for me. Beginning Fempreneur Secrets, I knew I wanted to touch as many lives as I could. So, I didn’t pass off on any speaking opportunities. I began the year with 2 webinars done for Freminear and WEdu International. I had 2 private webinars which I can’t mention, and 1 Keynote Presentation for HultPrize Competition, Rajshahi University. That Keynote just took place last 25 December while we were resting for the holidays.
