Welcome to the Booked Out Doula Blog where you are going to access world-class business resources and articles that exceed the value provided in most paid doula business trainings.
Why? Because for most doula certifications, business training is taught as a follow on from their doula course, it’s not the core component of what they do. Here at the Booked Out Doula, our specialty is business. We differ because we don’t just teach foundations for starting your business, we teach foundations for succeeding in your business.
Starting my career in business strategy in 2011, I have spent well over a decade learning and applying foundational business principles and strategies within all levels of businesses and companies, and these articles are to translate that knowledge into how you can apply that to your doula business to position your business to succeed.
