152: Adelaide's Go Getter Gals

Adelaide's Go Getter Gals are Caitlin Harvey and Chloe Reschke-Maguire. They are both known to this program because both of them are proactive in pursuing ventures and TALKING about them publicly.

We have met Caitlin before with her Feast On Foot business (walking food tours of Adelaide) which has a new offshoot, a dumpling tour. She also has a venture called Up In Smoke which taps into the current low, slow barbecue phenomenon and she has a chocolate venture which we won't be getting stuck into tonight, sadly, called Carpe Koko.

Meanwhile, we first met Chloe when she was the voice, the face and the energy of Yelp in Adelaide but she's recently struck out on a new venture, The Pop Up Co. This events company creates 'pop up' events that bring people together into quirky spaces for what Chloe calls, immersive engagement.

And that's what we're all about tonight so let's engage with each other immersively on topics of getting businesses underway and getting money more than hashtags.

We discuss

The key to successful business
The danger of looking at social media in a superficial way
Why we still single out 'female' business people as 'special'
Turning friends into customers or clients
Learning to value our work
Home delivery by Foodland
The best way to make yourself a valuable celebrity guest at events
