Today I'm sharing a special episode that I recorded based on my conversations with you. I get on calls with bloggers and almost daily. I see where so many of you struggle. In this episode, I'm sharing the five things I recommend you start putting into place now so that you can thrive in the ever-changing landscape of blogging and online business. The Importance of Adaptation in Business The business model for online entrepreneurship has undergone a significant transformation over the last six month. It's no longer just about putting content out there with the right keywords and hoping for the best when it comes to Google. Biggest takeaway of the episode: Today, it's about growing an engaged audience and effectively selling to them.

But with the right approach, they can be overcome. So here are the five things I recommend you start putting into place to find financial success as a blogger and online entrepreneur. Define Your Niche The first step to success is defining your niche. It's essential to narrow down your focus to communicate clearly the problem you solve. This specificity helps attract the right audience who are looking for exactly what you have to offer. Remember, when you try to appeal to everyone, you often connect with no one. Develop a Strong Personal Brand Your personal brand, or as I like to call it, your "vibe," is what sets you apart in a crowded market. It's about showing up as a human, connecting with your audience on a personal level, and expressing what makes you unique within your niche. Your authenticity is your greatest asset. Diversify Your Traffic Sources Relying solely on Google for traffic is a risky strategy. Diversifying your traffic sources can protect you against algorithm changes and other uncertainties. Platforms like Pinterest and Instagram are not just for sharing content; they're powerful tools for driving traffic and building your personal brand. Prioritize Your Email List Your email list is a goldmine. It's the key to developing deep relationships with your true fans and driving sales. Unlike social media followers, you own your email list, and it allows you to communicate directly with your audience without the interference of algorithms. Choose Easy Tech Tools In the world of online business, technology can be both a blessing and a curse. While there are countless tools out there promising to make your life easier, it's important to choose simple and effective solutions. Avoid expensive and complicated platforms that can lead to frustration and wasted resources. Updates on MiloTree and MiloTreeCart and MiloTreeFreebies I'm thrilled to share some updates on MiloTree and MiloTree Cart. We're transitioning MiloTree Cart to a more traditional subscription model, which will provide even more value to our users. Additionally, we're introducing MiloTreeFreebies, a new product designed to help creators like you grow your email lists efficiently. The Journey of Online Business I want to remind you that online business is a journey, complete with its ups and downs. It's a path of continuous learning and adaptation. I'm here to support you every step of the way, and I invite you to reach out with your feedback and questions. Together, we can navigate the ever-changing digital landscape and achieve our entrepreneurial goals. Thank you for joining me on this adventure. Remember, the key to success is staying informed, being adaptable, and always striving to connect with your audience on a deeper level. Let's keep the conversation going and build our online empires with confidence and creativity.

In episode 524, Megan talks to Lauren Woodger about why mindset is such an important element of building a successful business and 8 mindset hacks we can implement today. Lauren began "The Scatty Mum" in 2019 as a hobby blog to share allergy-friendly recipes when her daughter was diagnosed with multiple food allergies. In 2022, she took a leap and left her day job to focus on her blog full-time. Even though her daughter has outgrown her allergies, Lauren still understands the struggle of preparing meals for everyone. She's passionate about creating easy, allergy-friendly recipes that the entire family can enjoy. Lauren lives in Surrey in the UK, with her husband and two children. In this episode, you'll learn about how to cultivate a positive mindset as a blogger and entrepreneur, including prioritizing networking, becoming a more productive entrepreneur and celebrating your progress every day. Key points discussed: - Connecting with other bloggers: Build connections within the blogging community through social media, Facebook groups, and networking events to combat feelings of isolation and provide valuable insights and encouragement. - Celebrating progress: Track and celebrate your achievements, no matter how small. It is crucial for maintaining motivation and perspective on your blogging journey. - Invest in productivity courses: Transform your approach to work and time management by learning strategies such as backward planning and focus work sessions. - Limit comparison: Avoid the trap of comparing your progress to others'. It is essential for maintaining a positive mindset. - Concentrate on one main goal at a time: By focusing on a single primary goal, you can channel your energy and resources effectively. - Implement a timed daily schedule: Planning your day ahead can help you maintain focus and structure throughout the day. - Combat shiny object syndrome: Prioritize ‘focus work' in the morning and allocating time for administrative tasks later in the day. - Take breaks when you need to: Don't forget to do things that promote well-being, such as going for walks and listening to podcasts.

007. Are you trying to build a blog business while also juggling a full-time job? How do you know when to take the leap and start blogging full time?The transition to full-time blogger will look a little different for everyone and it depends on a lot of factors. If you have some savings stockpiled away, if you have a family and kids to consider, and of course, what stage your blog is at. You could probably say that Alex and I took that leap a little prematurely and it was definitely based more on feelings and desires rather than serious logic and rational decision-making. But it worked for us and it turned out to be the best decision we ever made.There were still doubts though, and those doubts and uncertainties were reflected in the faces of our families and friends when we told them we were giving up our full-time jobs. But we had to try it, and I can tell you that one of the biggest things to get right during this time is… your mindset. What we're talking about in this episode:What my transition to blogging full time looked like.The mindset shifts you need to consider during this process.How to use your personality type to your advantage.The possibilities open to you throughout the learning and growth process. Work-life balance??? Is that a thing??What my full-time blogger life looks like now.For additional resources and show notes, visit the episode podcast page on our website.Resources and Mentions:Start your first blog with our Free 5-Day Blogging BootcampEpisode 1: Our Story: From 9-5 to Over $100k/Month Blogging BusinessTutorial: How to Start a Successful Blog

Ever wonder how some bloggers make money blogging much faster than others? Even though it might seem fast, it usually takes time, consistency and a strategy. Personally for me, I have started and worked on multiple blogs and the most recent one is my most successful blogging attempt so far but it has been 4 years in the making! In this episode I share the 6 steps I follow on how to start a blog that makes money, the major mistakes newbie bloggers make (and how to avoid them) and the best ways to grow your income from blogging.

In this episode, I interview Nico Cerdeira, founder of Failory.com. We talk about how he built his content site to 3k in MRR and 50k searches through Google per month, the concept of validating ideas, and much more. https://www.chasepotential.com/NicoCerdeira

About Deboshree Dutta:My next guest on The One Percent Project is Deboshree Dutta. She is Group Product Manager at Paypal, Founder & CEO of RoomPlays and blogger with 150K Instagram followers. In this conversation she talks about:What is product management and how to access product success?How she built her blog Design Play took it to 150K followers?Her experience being an entrepreneur and building RoomPlays.Rapid Fire:One book or a blog that has made the most difference to you?Will say two books, one book was lean startup. I think that has been brilliant. From day one. From the time I started into product management all the way till I'm doing everything that I do even today, I treat it as a Bible and I'd recommend that to anybody who if you haven't read it. The other one that I really liked is by Arianna Huffington. It's called thrive and that is essentially about mental wellness, meditation, gratitude. It basically talks about how we define success only by typically just two pillars, which are like money and happiness or money and career success, but there's a third leg to this three legged stool, which is your mental happiness and I think her book speaks to me every day. I think it's I highly recommend if people haven't read it, I highly recommend reading thrive by Arianna Huffington.Hardest thing about your job?Patience. I think a lot of times we try to have these brilliant ideas, and we want to see them in action. But like I said, you need to bring people along with you and you need to work through the kinks. It takes time to make magic happen. So patience is something I'm learning to do to have.Your most favourite superhero?I don't have one. But I would say I love how I built this as a podcast. So every time I listen to one of Kendra Scott, or Kate Spade, or Reid Hoffman, or any of their journeys, and how they've gone from just giving it a shot, like not losing hope that has been that's really why I started replays, like learning from the humility and just for me that they are all superheroes, and I highly recommend how I built this if someone if folks are not listening to that podcast.Three ways to support the podcast:#1 Share the episode with family and friends on social media with #OnePercentProj using the share button on the site.#2 Take a few seconds to give us a rating on Apple Podcasts.

By writing in your own voice and adding your personal spin on a subject, it makes it much more interesting for your readers and can make you more relatable too. If your blog content sounds like everyone else's, it will be hard for people to connect with you. But, if you can stand out to people in some way, they are more likely to come back for more. Write about what interests you Do you actually enjoy what you are blogging about? If you don't enjoy what you are writing about, chances are other people won't enjoy it either. If you are struggling to put your interests down on paper, but you excel at creating videos, consider creating videos and sending to Fiverr or Rev to have them transcribed. Then you can format the transcription into a blog post and embed your video within your blog post. Now your readers have the option to read or watch your content. Know who you're writing for Keeping your ideal customer in mind, or who specifically you are trying to help with your blog, think about what they want to read about.

In today's episode, Mark Podolsky, the Land Geek, talks to Leslie Samuel, former university professor and creator of becomeablogger.com and interactive biology blogs. His passion for education has led him on a mission to change the world one blog at a time. With a simple message of creating content, inspiring others, he is changing the world while building a solid online business. When he started to do research for his biology blogs, he saw that the other biology blogs were boring and made him yawn. He remembers getting his start with 400 people until he was able to build his community to 15,000 to 20,000 people a month. In the last month alone, he was able to get 95,000 to that blog and he hasn't even touched his blog for years! His blog gave him the chance to teach what he wanted to teach and it eventually landed him a job as a professor. To build his blog, he says he used a combination of a number of different things. He put his videos on YouTube, the number two search engine in the world and leveraged that platform. He also said he was specific with the way he came up with titles for his videos. He says when people need information, they search and once they find content, if it's good content, they'll subscribe and start looking for other videos. Eventually, YouTube is going to see that and start recommending your videos as you're searching. He also did “Strategic Outreach” where he approached other sites and bloggers in the same niche and formed alliances with them. This created a ripple effect for him. Essentially, blogging is about creating good content, putting it out there, making sure it's written from a unique angle, and getting the right people exposed to it. When asked what good content was, Leslie says it depends on your target audience and having an understanding of who you want to reach. It is content that helps a specific person accomplish a specific goal or overcome a specific struggle but does it in a way that resonates with that person. When identifying your target audience, Leslie suggests that you have to know exactly who you are trying to reach. The narrower that niche is, the better and it is because if you know exactly who your audience is down to a tee and you create content that's just for them, when the person finds you, they will know that the content you are creating is just for them. Make a list of questions that your target audience may have and start answering those questions by creating your blog post, which may consist of content, videos, or podcasts. Help your target audience accomplish their goals. Knowing and understanding the language they speak is also important. Leslie also makes sure he has written content. He even has someone transcribe his video so that he could have written content that Google will send a ton of traffic for because it's indexing the written content. Choosing the medium that resonates with your audience is important. Monetizing your blog can take the form of affiliate marketing. This entails signing up with a company that has a product or service for sale, featuring the product or service on your website, and getting commissions from those sales. Then eventually, you can start creating your own products such as a course or an ebook. Getting a person's email address is difficult but Leslie says that once you have their email address, you can start nurturing that relationship with them. In that relationship, once people get to know you, trust you, and see you as an authority in whatever niche you're in, they're more likely to buy from you. Building an email list is one of the most important things to do when building an online business. Email marketing is not dead, according to Leslie. He still thinks it's one of the most effective way to drive sales. He says it's more effective than social media and just about any other that we see out there. This, combined with webinars, are Leslie's way of promoting his blog. Webinars with a good email follow-up sequence make sales go through the roof. On getting exposure and traffic, being in all the social media networks may not be the solution. He suggests that you pick one and master it. Choosing one social media network and focusing on it is effective and that is how you can make an impact in the noisy world we live in. When asked if Mark had the Best Passive Income Model, Leslie said it was the Best Passive Income Model for Mark. TIP OF THE WEEK Leslie: Read No Excuses by Brian Tracy. It doesn't just go through the psychology and all that stuff but it also gives you actionable steps you can take. For me, the book was a game changer. Mark: Learn more about Leslie and go to becomeablogger.com where he's creating a ton of value. Thank you for listening to the Best Passive Income Model podcast.

Welcome to episode #183 of Six Pixels Of Separation - The Twist Image Podcast. I worked my new Olympus PCM digital recorder to the bone at Andy Sernovitz' Word of Mouth Supergenius conference in Chicago this month. Saul Colt (who definitely is The Smartest Man In The World!) was kind enough to introduce me to someone who I have been following (both their Blog and on Twitter) for many years. Liz Strauss is a fireball of insight and knowledge about the digital channel and building real relationships for brands. She has a very successful Blog (named Successful Blog) and is widely regarded as one of "go to" people for brands working the online channel. Her wildly successful conference, SOBCon, happens every year in Chicago, and she was kind enough to spend some time talking about these digital channels and how they help to connect business. Liz was my first victim (errr... I mean, "guest"!) from the Supergenius event. Enjoy the conversation...
