Starting a business can feel like staring up at an impossibly steep mountain when you're barefoot with your hands tied behind your back. You've got brilliant ideas swirling, but that gap between "what if" and "let's do this" feels like a chasm. If tech makes you break out in a cold sweat, or you’re juggling commitments, working with limited funding, or simply don’t know where to start – I see you. I was you. A few years ago, most of the tech I use daily was completely foreign to me. Vocalising your idea? Terrifying. Integrated platforms? Might as well have been rocket science. Social media strategy? I was winging it. But here’s what I discovered when I finally took that leap and jumped into the deep end: with a bit of courage and extra effort, you really can teach yourself almost anything. And what you can’t figure out? You ask for help. There's no shame in that – it's actually quite brilliant. Trust your intuition and what feels right. You don’t need to be everyone’s cup of tea – your customers will respond to authenticity. That’s exactly why I started this. I wanted to create the support system I desperately needed when I was standing on that cliff, wondering if I was brave enough to jump. I wanted to build something for people with incredible ideas who feel baffled by tech, or isolated in their entrepreneurial journey. Our role isn’t to do everything for you – it’s to teach you to fish. To share the knowledge I’ve gained through all the tumbles, face-palm moments, and wins. To help you feel confident enough to take that first step, knowing someone’s in your corner. What’s stopping you from starting? I’d love to know. Drop me a message – whether it’s tech that’s confusing, biz foundations that feel overwhelming, or just that general “where do I start?” feeling. Watch this space… our Follow the Pebbles community is launching soon – a space to ask questions and support each other. You’re not alone. Your idea is worth pursuing. Let’s make it happen.

Mastering the 3-2-1 BACKUP STRATEGY 🔒 It’s super stressful, but data loss happens to businesses of all sizes, but you can protect yourself. Here’s a simple process to follow… The 3-2-1 backup rule: - Keep 3️⃣ copies of your important data - Store them on 2️⃣ different types of media - Keep 1️⃣ copy off-site or in the cloud In practice, this might look like: 1️⃣ Original files on your computer 2️⃣ First backup on an external hard drive 3️⃣ Second backup in cloud storage (Google Drive, Dropbox, etc.) 🪨 Pebble Pro tip: Set a calendar reminder to verify your backups monthly. A backup isn't helpful if it's not working correctly! What's your current backup strategy? Is your irreplaceable business data protected? #PebbleCo #MasteringYourTech #DataBackup #BusinessSecurity #DigitalProtection #CloudBackup

Most entrepreneurs are spending 30+ minutes daily just hunting for files, with documents scattered across multiple devices and no clear structure. But here's what happens when you get organised: - 5+ hours saved weekly on file searching - Seamless collaboration with team members - Peace of mind with proper backup systems - Professional file sharing with clients The transformation doesn't require technical expertise—just the right guidance and a system tailored to how you work.

Challenging Ageism: My Dad's Remarkable Journey from Rock 'n' Roll to Digital Therapy In a world that often pushes older generations aside, my dad stands as living proof that age is just a number—not a measure of capability or relevance. At 84, he's not just surviving in our digital world; he's thriving. His journey to digital fluency shaped my approach at Pebble Co to make entrepreneurship accessible to everyone. Dad has always reinvented himself—from rock 'n' roll to television to computers. But after being edged out by younger colleagues despite his wealth of experience, he made a bold move: at 64, when most settle into retirement, he retrained as a psychotherapist. Twenty years later at 84, he's still practicing. The real transformation came when he embraced technology that initially felt overwhelming (sound familiar?). The breakthrough happened when we focused not on the complicated tech, but on how it solved his specific problems. Suddenly, complex systems became valuable solutions. Today, Dad runs his therapy practice almost entirely online. Video sessions have expanded his client reach beyond geographical limits. Digital scheduling eliminated administrative headaches. Online resources provide clients with support between sessions. His story isn't just about an octogenarian mastering GoogleMeet. It's about someone with decades of wisdom finding new ways to share expertise through technology, rather than being limited by it. Just to make things funny, he always refers to himself as a dinosaur so the pics is a funny fossil just like him 🤣🪨🦕 Maybe you're retired or thinking of it, but miss having purpose?
