Bree James - smiling and happy

HELLO

Thanks so much for being here, it’s really nice to meet you. So, you want to know a little more about me…

My personal values mean everything to me. I live and die by my integrity, my honesty and my ever-present entrepreneurial spirit. I’ve always been a business owner, long before I ever realised I was. From selling AVON at the age of 10, through to owning and operating one of the largest and most successful regional publishing companies in Australia, I’ve got a wild entrepreneurial spirit and I just love it.

In reality I’m a solutions finder, I see a problem and I build a business that solves it. Simple as that. This has led me towards all kinds of adventures in the entrepreneurial world. Today I manage a busy publishing company, an entertainment company, a marketing company, a personal development company all whilst ensuring I am living a big life, and being the best mother, wife and friend I can be.

In amongst all of this,

I’m also a travel writer and blogger, sharing my family exploits in very cool locations including Bali, Hong Kong, Japan, Singapore, Italy, Germany, South Africa and of course Australia. This underpins my philosophy to life which is all about “giving it a go”. I’ve inherited a truly adventurous soul, with a strong desire to live the richest life I can.

This approach to life and business has now manifested into books, a speaking career, blogs and partnerships with some pretty extraordinary people. But I still feel like I’m just getting started.

What drives me forward

is my desire to help people to have the best life they possibly can. My biggest passion in life has always come from helping people. My favourites are Small Business owners, Parents, and Parentpreneurs (the crazies that do both!), to be brave, bold and brilliant. I do this by helping them to grow highly effective teams and or families, establish what is important, to get more things done, discover their inner brilliance and most importantly-the courage to give more things a go.

Integrity means everything to me, so I thought I’d share some of my skills so you can see what my strengths are.

STRATEGIC BUSINESS SKILLS

  • People and performance management – I have employed staff aged 14 – 60 years old. I really enjoy getting the best out of people and see the value in a diverse team. 
  • Team & company culture – It’s the way people feel about the work they do, the values they believe in, where they see the company going, and what they’re doing to get it there.
  • Business Strategy – I have systems that help set clear direction, implement action, and reach goals to help a business succeed now and in the future. 
  • Marketing – I have owned a marketing company, I enjoy strategising campaigns, websites, and digital marketing that converts. I have decades of experience in traditional and digital marketing. My brands have several social media pages and groups, Podcasts, online courses, and more. 
  • Creativity – The creation and development of ideas comes naturally to me. I approach creativity from every which way you can, and more, hence my ability to envision is one of a kind.
  • Problem solving – I enjoy looking for solutions where others only see problems.
  • Branding – I have helped build hundreds of brands with skilled graphic designers.
  • Copywriting – I’ve owned a parenting magazine for over 15 years, printed nearly 4 million copies, written several books, countless blogs, and pieces of copy for print, tv, and digital. 
  • Sales – I’ve sold over $7 million worth of advertising, and created sales processes and strategies for everything from school enrolments and dentist appointments, to retreats and event tickets. 
  • Community building – I’ve built a following of over 72,000 parents over a 15 year period. I know what it takes to acquire, nurture, retain, and engage a community.
  • Leadership – I’ve led diverse teams with diverse skills for over half of my life.
  • Business planning – Creating a vision of where a company is going, and what it will take to get it there is one of my favourite things to do.
  • Event management – I have held over 350 events in Australia and overseas for 5 to 5,000 people. As a musician, speaker, performer, and events coordinator, I understand the intricacies of executing a successful event. 
  • Content planning – I believe the key to sustaining  great content is planning. My companies produce hundreds of thousands of pieces of content annually through audio, video, blogging, print, socials and so much more.

What others have to say

Kate ChristieFounder and Managing Director Time Stylers and Best-selling Author of “Me Time”

“Bree James is one of those rare speakers who has a wonderfully appealing charisma which helps her to engage any audience in seconds. I recently attended an Author’s Retreat in Bali where Bree James was one of the keynote speakers. She is amazing. Bree is the content Queen on media; what publishers do and don’t want; how to differentiate yourself in their eyes; how to generate endless ideas for content; and then how to manage that content. Bree has a lovely, open and generous style - she is warm and very funny. I would highly recommend Bree for your next event.”

Sarah StandenFounder and Managing Director of InkByte Communications

“We engaged Bree to deliver a facilitated training workshop which exceeded expectations both in terms of the attendance she attracted and the feedback from the audience. We immediately received emails and messages from attendees thanking us for her engaging, informative and entertaining presentation. We would recommend Bree James to any group, conference or business seeking an engaging and impressive speaker or facilitator.”

others against.”
