How to dominate your industry in 5-Steps without spending a fortune, with Tracy Angwin.

Wondering how to elevate yourself above the masses in your industry and stand out as THE go-to person for big brands, the media, and (of course) hordes of keen customers? Well, this week’s guest, Tracy Angwin of the Australian Payroll Association, has done just that. And in one of the most boring (as she admits) industries going around – Payroll! (I’m falling asleep just typing that word…).

Tracy explains exactly how she went from being just another cog in the giant corporate machine to demanding 4x her previous consulting fees and being hunted down by national organisations such as TAFE and retail giants to educate people about her area of expertise. 

How did she do it? Tune in to this week’s episode and find out, as Tracy reveals all under Timbo’s relentless grilling.
