"So you went from cutting hair for the boys at school to like working in a barbershop, to that barbershop closing down. And then you just thought, sweet, I'll just all have my own barbershop."
Jaedz didn't think he'd open a barbershop at the age of 19. But when opportunity knocked, he thought why not.
This is the rollercoaster story of a crazy 12 months, from opening up shop, having a crazy opening day, then basically having no customers for months, then cracking the code, making money, having to shutdown, and opening back up in a new space.
Jaedz shows us what that journey looked like, his mindset throughout, crafty ways he managed to stay afloat and ways he managed to make money, behind the curtains of the business with all the numbers (income, margins, how it all works), and how he's managed to create the brand he has today.
It's one of my favourite and best chats to date. I hope you enjoy this chat.
Listen Now. Enjoy.

Have you ever wondered how to run Facebook Ads? Professor Charley T (known as CT The Disrupter) tells all. Including a crazy story or two.
Episode 125: Fin (@barneybarnett01) and Charley (@ctthedisrupter) discuss how Charley spent over $500M on Facebook Ads, the reason Facebook groups was invented - because of one of his ad campaigns for 1-800-FLOWERS, created and popularised the 3-2-2 Facebook Ad Buying Technique, and turned his life around from being a junkie and addict, to becoming the 'Alex Hormozi' of Facebook Ads.
It's been a crazy ride for the guy. We just get to sit back and enjoy the ride too - in today's episode of Ellen Ave.

Made this episode to help you reflect on 2022 and set goals for 2023. This is the quick and easy process I used for my yearly reflection and annual goal setting. Hopefully you can use it too - this episode breaks it down into a follow along template with me as an example.
I say hi quickly, then about 5 minutes in I start to talk about:
- Going over what happened in your life last/this year, then highs and lows.
- Reflecting on moments from the past year
- Checking in with your life goals, and 5 year goals
- Ultimately setting your 2023 goals and planning for the year, using 4 key questions
Super stoked to be back with a new setup and really excited for the year ahead - hopefully you'll join me for a some business chat, good vibes, serious inspiration and value. It won't just be me - I've got an amazing guest list full of experts and people doing amazing things to help us learn, grow, and apply as well.

Is Hnry the accounting software of dreams for tradies/freelancers/contractors? Welcome to a new segment - business toolkit! There's so many different apps/services/stuff out there made to make your life (and business) easier. I'm keen to talk about them all - starting with Hnry, an accounting software for entrepreneurs.
Why I need an accounting software (for my new side hustle/venture of sorts)How I came across HnryWhat it does, who it's for, and how it compares (to Xero, etc)What it's been like!
Today I chat:
It's like Xero, but focused in on sole traders - tradies, contractors, freelancers, one-person-shows - however you wanna put it.
I've recently started using it (like literally 48 hours ago) for a new venture/side hustle I'm starting quietly. Seeing as you have to pay taxes and do accounting stuff for all the money you earn when you're not an employee, and I'm lazy, I decided on using Hnry based on cost and ease of use.No matter what I do, I can't write this without making it look like an ad - but it's not paid for or anything by them... although Hnry, feel free to slide into my DMs xx
https://app.hnry.io/r/FINLAY87980 - try hnry here i think you get something and I do too!
Enjoy the listen and have a good day!

This episode could be a hit or miss. So I was sitting in traffic, and to pass the time I jumped on a call with my mate who’s in his 20s and recently opened a barbershop.
Finding something that works, and adapting it for youThe three stages of mentors/people and how you can use those to position how you come across to people
He’s keen on starting a podcast to further connect with people, and allow them to connect to him and his brand - so he reached out to have a yarn about the space and bounce ideas.
Thought I would share 2 key concepts we yarned about on here today:

I tend to have some half decent business ideas or insights, but never seem to execute them well myself. But whenever I tell them to others, they always do REALLY well. So listen and steal my marketing and content plan for Ellen Ave. It'll work.
pivoting and changing podcast topics, how to do the decision making process and competitive analysis behind pivoting, creating a basic plan to market a podcast, how to create micro content, what micro content to make for a podcast, the concept of testing content and finding winning content
Today I jump on to discuss:Enjoy!
