[22] Kat Luckock: unlocking the power of positive impact

Ethical Hour Changemaker Chats

Today on the Ethical Hour Podcast I speak to Impact Strategist and Business Coach Kat Luckock about how social enterprises and impact businesses can start to measure and communicate their impact.

As consumers demand more from the brands they buy from, businesses and social enterprises need to cut through the greenwashing and demonstrate their impact. Telling your impact story can be a powerful marketing tool, as well as an opportunity to attract more stakeholders and even investors.

Kat Luckock is a successful social entrepreneur who works with impact driven brands to measure and communicate their impact. Today she shares her advice on how to measure and use your impact as a business and marketing tool.

In this episode you will learn:

• How to set targets and goals for your impact
• How to communicate your impact story to attract customers
• Where to start when it feels overwhelming and you wonder if you're doing enough
• How to create your first impact report
• How to use your impact to attract stakeholders and grow your business
