  • E90: From leaving college after 5 days, "A" star student, Zoe, talks leaving college after 5 days to Entrepreneurial success at 22!
    2024/10/21
    In this week’s episode of the School Run Podcast, Jane and Liv sit down with 22-year-old entrepreneur Zoe Clough, the founder of Elevated Socials, a rapidly growing social media management agency. Zoe’s journey from leaving college after just five days to becoming a business owner with an employee at the age of 22 is nothing short of inspiring. Zoe shares the pivotal moments that led to the creation of her business, including how a small moment of support from her dad, a fireman, who shared one of her social media posts, gave her the confidence to pursue her passion. Starting her career as a content creator at a local beauty business, she quickly realised she had a knack for social media management. This experience laid the foundation for her to start her own company, Elevated Socials, where she now helps other businesses grow their digital presence. Key Takeaways: • Zoe’s Path to Entrepreneurship: How dropping out of college led Zoe to discover her true passion for social media and content creation. • The Power of a Support System: How a simple act of encouragement from Zoe’s dad on Facebook helped her believe in her business potential. • Growing a Business: Zoe’s journey from a one-woman operation to hiring her first employee, and what it’s like managing a small but thriving social media agency. • Lessons from a Young Entrepreneur: The challenges and rewards of running a business at a young age, and the importance of taking risks and following your instincts. • Advice for Aspiring Entrepreneurs: Zoe’s tips for anyone looking to break into social media management or start their own business.
