    7: Sharing your gifts with Claire Robinson of Basic Tech
    2023/04/09

    Claire Robinson never imagined she would be so focused each day on bridging generational divides. But it’s hard to imagine a more perfect fit. Although Claire started out working in Public Relations, her CV grew to include additions from tech giants Google and EA Games. Claire was also passionate about volunteering in South Africa and later Australia. But ultimately, it would be COVID that was the turning point for Claire and the start of Basic Tech. This education-based business focuses on empowering the senior demographic with the tech knowledge they need to be confident and independent in our digital world.


    “Overcoming mental blocks about your abilities, even when you have your own business can be particularly difficult. You've got to keep reminding yourself that you are running your own race and constantly reflect back on how far you've come.” Claire Robinson of Basic Tech


    What we chat about


    • Running your own race and dealing with imposter syndrome in the male-dominated tech space
    • The importance and power of networking as a business founder
    • Balancing altruistic passions with a profitable business
    • Working with a mix of one-on-one and group clients
    • Organising and raising money to start a business including utilising grants
    • The crucial act of making time for yourself to have fun when you’re a busy founder


    “I know that volunteering will always take precedence over money for me. So it's not always easy to find the balance again.” Claire Robinson of Basic Tech

    5: It takes a village with stylist Kerrie Carucci, Part 2
    2022/11/15

    5: It takes a village with stylist Kerrie, Part 2


    Kerrie Carucci, a leading Australian stylist, is back on the IMAT podcast sharing style and business wisdom. Based in Brisbane, Kerrie gives us a glimpse into the day in the life of a personal and editorial fashion stylist. Missed part 1? Go back and listen before diving into this episode.


    In part 2, Kerrie provides detailed insights (with no sugar coating) into the realities of starting and running a styling business. Kerrie explains how fundamental her support network, both professional and personal, has been in business.


    Kerrie discusses why it was so important to reframe what success is for her life and business. And we go deep on practical methods for managing the sometimes toxic but unavoidable comparison trap for small business owners using social media.

    “I'm under the firm belief, you can either do fewer things to an absolute, incredible level, or you do a lot of things that are just going to be okay” Kerrie Carucci

    What we chat about


    • How a corporate career offers transferrable skills into a creative business
    • Kerrie’s ‘pricing mirror method’ and how to use this same behaviour test for stying choices
    • The comparison trap as a creative in the fashion industry and practical tips to manage it
    • The role of support and business mentors for Kerrie
    • How Kerrie chooses to measure success
    • Kerrie’s journey to developing a decision-making and leadership style


    “If you are listening to this and you're thinking about making the shift, there's no reason to tell you that it's all going to be rosy 100% of the time, it's really not. You're going to have face-down moments, and you're going to question why am I even doing this? Is this really something that I am purposely driven by? Am I passionate about it? Is this worth it?” Kerrie Carucci
