Hey Reader!

Have you ever felt that gut-wrenching moment when you realize you’re locked out of something really important? That happened to a client recently when she discovered she didn’t fully own a couple of key digital assets, including her domain!
​
⭐️ This week’s episode comes from a personal place — making sure you truly own your digital assets, so you never find yourself in a bind.
​
As a small business owner, the foundation of your online presence begins with owning and understanding six critical assets. Here's what we dive into in this episode:

👉 The Importance of Owning Your Domain Name
Your domain name is non-negotiable. It’s your business’s unique online address. Ensure it's in your name, not someone else's.
​
👉 Hosting Control
You need full control over where your website lives. If you’re on WordPress, platforms like ICDsoft get the Jenny B thumbs up.
​
👉 Full Website Access
Make sure you’ve got the keys to your digital castle. You need administrative access to manage change on your page.
​
👉 Securing Your Email Accounts
Your professional email is an extension of your brand. Don’t let anyone else hold the reins.
​
👉Social Media Ownership
Who’s the admin of your Instagram, Facebook, and LinkedIn pages? Spoiler: it should be you.
​
👉Your Visual Identity
Keep all your logos, brand photos, and style guides within arm’s reach. This is your brand’s essence.
