Every month I write a goal post complete with my goals for the next 30 days and my lessons learned from the previous 30 days. I’ll link to this month’s post in the show notes if you wanna see my spill the tea on all my business shenanigans xobritdear.com/blog/8 While I was on vacay, I realized that I don’t actualize my potential. There are so many things I know I need to be doing, like drawing, but I make 50-11 sometimes valid excuses for why I don’t. The tyranny must end. If you’re like me and feel like you ain’t reached your potential yet, here’s what we, yes WE, gon’ do
Today, we’re talking about systems. The purpose of systems is to train yourself to be consistent using a template, pattern, or habit.
How often do you wake up, sit in front of your computer, with the intention to write, and nothing happens?
Setup a system of creation to help you write quickly. I use templates for EVERYTHING. I have a blog post template, a podcast script template, and a newsletter template.
The more you define a structure for your content, the easier it will be to create it.
Today we’re going to really dig into a topic that I see often and that’s blog launching. More specifically today’s question is: how can I launch a beautiful blog for free?
This is going to be the first episode in a 3 part series based on my free blogging 101 course #flourish30.
Let’s just start off by saying I Love this topic so much.
LET’S COVER SOME BASICS TODAY. To launch a BEAUTIFUL blog for free, you need three things in place: a blog platform, a schedule, and a few systems.
Today we’re going to talk about blog platforms.
No matter how long you’ve been blogging, there’s always a question of whether you’re doing enough. Today, we’re going to answer the question.
HOW OFTEN SHOULD I BLOG? Here’s the short answer: more than you think.
At the very least, you should be creating content weekly. Why? By establishing a weekly routine, you keep yourself firmly placed in your audience’s minds.
Also, blogging regularly gives you a set amount of posts to promote on social media.
SO, WHAT ABOUT ALL THESE PEOPLE TELLING ME TO BLOG EVERY DAY? When you’re just starting out, or you’re wanting to quickly build your brand, yes you (should) blog between 3-5 times a week. But let’s be serious.
If you have a full-time job, are a student, or are a stay-at-home parent, you may not have time to blog that often. Life is real. And, it’s hard to find a balance between blogging and everything else.
Today’s hot, and juicy question is: Brittany, is it necessary to niche when I first start out?
My answer is complex.
On the surface, yes OF COURSE YOU SHOULD NICHE. You make your life infinitely easier when you can focus on one, maybe two, repeated topics.
You can grow and audience faster. You research blog posts better. You can even monetize sooner by establishing a niche from the jump.
But let’s get real.
You ain’t finna niche.
Let me tell you why.
