Lynn, hi! Thanks so much for following! I plan to pick up with more posts here in a few weeks…
It’s hard to believe pulseonparenting is over a year old! Even more astonishing is the 73 posts that seem to have come out of nowhere (and yes, some actually did). Knowing most blogs peter out for lack of content I feel so lucky and grateful to have more topics in mind and in rough draft as well. My blog is a source of joy to work on.
However, I am going to take a partial hiatus. Short ditties will still be published but less often for the next month, or perhaps until the end of this year. The reason is I need to research and begin what I have been putting off since starting my blog and that thing is as out of my comfort zone as performing a lobotomy: Marketing.
My personality and background couldn’t have prepared me less for advertising and networking. But after finishing the book Growth Hacker Marketing by Ryan Holiday, I learned those traditional marketing tactics may become obsolete in this online world. And I feel encouraged that even a novice as myself can use the basic tricks of a “growth hacker” (someone who injects marketing into a product) to jumpstart an online commodity.
Wow, I actually tried the word “commodity” in a sentence (I’m more comfortable with the word “commode” so this is a baby step in the right direction…). But I have so very much to otherwise learn about “getting it out there.” Know how much I appreciate all of you who are following “pulse” now and hope you will continue to…your support means the world to me. As a heads up, I plan to contact some of you in the near future to ask for feedback and hope that in the course of your busy schedules you can give me a couple minutes of your time. Please also feel free to “comment” on this post if you like!
“See” you all again soon!
Our newest family addition, Dakota. Our daily hikes help me clear my head, fill my lungs with fresh air and prep me for the next writing adventure.
I am going to miss reading these but I understand it is time to try a few new things. That has been in my mind quite a bit lately as well 🙂 Good luck in your new adventures and if you need anything give me a shout I would love to help you in any way I can. Good luck!!
Lynn, hi! Thanks so much for following! I plan to pick up with more posts here in a few weeks but came to the realization I am not savvy with search engines and key search words and all that and I need to be if people want to find my blog. So I’m taking some of my writing time to learn more about getting better exposure and learning the craft of blogging.
Thank you for your well-wishes and support…could I ask you a couple questions? First off, what posts here on pulseonparenting did you like most? What kinds of topics would you like to see explored here? No hurry on getting back to me.
Know you are on my mind a lot and sounds like you have some future exciting plans!
