About Big Ideas Rural

The Regional Experts Show is a podcast for service-based women building ambitious businesses from regional Australia. I'm your host, Tori Kopke, and I work with you to attract better clients, build offers that aren't tied to more hours, and create a business that works with your life. You don't need a city postcode, a massive local market, or 100,000 followers to build something big. You need the right strategy, a strong point of view, and the confidence to become the expert people think of first. This is The Regional Experts Show.

   From hobby to proud business owner, with Emma Bennett

   Emma Bennett spent years calling herself a VA, charging by the hour for admin work while quietly doing the job of an operations manager underneath it.

We get into the six-figure year that foll...
