90 Days To A Flourishing Blog

Can it be done?

The last four months have been so jam packed with learning that I question whether I ever knew anything at all. I kid. Seriously though, I had started and failed at a lot of business ideas in the past. The following is a little rundown of why as well as my plan to knock it out of the park this time.

Skill acquisition

I had a long held belief that all you need to succeed is a really good idea. I mean, it looks like that right? Someone creates a product or service and BOOM, they have a thriving business. The customers are flowing. The money is piling.

There is a reason people got away with creating “business degrees”. There is a ton involved in the curation of success and it helps to have someone teach you. In lieu of going off to college, yet again, I took to a little self-teaching.

I gathered books, read articles, and watched videos for several months. I then crept out to the ledge of content creation, spread my wings, and began to fall. With style.

Falling is important. This is something I didn’t grasp in the past. I have to learn the skills, but I have to practicing using those skills too. This is part of the process. Perhaps I didn’t want to accept that it is a process in the first place. I wanted to push play and go. It doesn’t work that way.

Investing

Success requires an investment. In my case, I had to invest time and some money. Nothing crazy. Some simple upgrades in hardware and software that needed to happen anyway. A few of the books I couldn’t find for free. That sort of thing. And time, lots of time to read and practice.

I wasn’t willing to embrace this aspect in the past because I didn’t want to spend time and money on something that wasn’t going to give it back. This time, I realized it can’t begin to “give back” if I don’t give a little first.

The hard part

Here is the hard part. The work. Getting up every day and doing the work. The hours of research and writing. The hours more of SEO research and writing.

This time around I have made a crucial step which will make everything a little easier. I identified my audience. Not just a vague person that might find my content useful. A very specific person. She is so specific that I almost gave her a name.

It is this person I write to and for. It is this person I try to inform and inspire. This person is my audience.

It makes creating content more streamlined. There is less to figure out when you know exactly who you are writing for and why. Why. Why.

The plan

I built a blog about a year ago. For a time, I was publishing on it frequently. I got up to a few hundred visitors in one week. Which is nothing in blog world, but quite a bit for someone who had no idea what she was doing.

Now that I have learned a lot more about content creation, I am ready to give it all another shot. I have taken the following steps:

Rebuilt the website to be more pleasing and easy to navigate.
Started a consistent social media presence to help generate traffic
Recruited a little help from my inner circle
Laid out a 3 month content creation game plan and schedule

The goal, by the end of the 90 days, is to start seeing $300 per month in revenue through adds and affiliate links. If I can reach that goal, I will know that anything is possible.

I am writing about improving myself, traveling, making money, paying off debts, figuring out how to help others, and all the thoughts and questions I have along the way. Consider following me to see what happens next!
