Blogging can change your life in so many ways. Let me tell you how it’s changed my life. <Hashtag blog your dreams!>
I wrote a book, Wow Words on the Web
You all know I’ve written an Amazon bestseller … maybe what you don’t know is that it started as a simple little blog post. I’d written a bunch of blogs that I was determined to repurpose into a book. But it only formed about 50 per cent of my book. So I wrote some more to finish off the book and how I use that “new” content as posts on my blog.
Created a new income stream
The book, which was edited by an incredible woman Jacqui Pretty who worked her magic, has gone on to become so many other products, including an online course, blogging workshops, speeches and presentations, membership bonuses, free downloads, guest posts and so much more. It’s allowed me to create a stream of income.
Started another productised blog
Part of the story that makes up Liz Campbell is The Divorce Diary. This is my next book but has started as a blog and community first. It’s a business women’s survival guide to separation and divorce because when I was going through my own journey there nothing out there to help women like me navigate divorce and run a business at the same time. It’s one of the hardest things I have ever done and my business almost went down the drain. This blog and the processes associated with it will help millions of women (and men) all over the world.
Allowed me to live my dreams
I want to change the world one blog at a time. That’s the reason I started running how to blog workshops and speak on the topic a few times a week. I know how therapeutic writing is and how blogging as a content marketing strategy can raise your profile, create the business of your dreams and allow you to live life your terms. I know this because I’m doing it.
Travel the world
Next year, I’m heading to Italy to live and work for three months … blogging has allowed me to do this. In the next 6 months I’m setting my business up so EC Writing Services is run by a mini- Liz (that’s actually my sister) and I’m taking my workshops online. This is something people have been asking me to do in the last few months.
You can do this too! I know you can. It’s amazing to see the transformations that happen when business owners graduation from my “How to blog and boost your business half-day” workshop and join me at my Word Styling 2-Day Intensive Writing Retreat.
One woman is now planning to leave her full-time job to be in her business full time…and she starting with a blog!
Blog your dreams people! Think bigger, stand taller and live life on your terms.
