7 Areas to Focus on During Your Mid-Year Blog Review [PLUS My Content Creation Workflow]

Hi Reader!

In my home town of Melbourne Australia, we've just re-entered another Covid isolation lockdown that is mandated to last 6 weeks. We did this back in March and we'll get through this again. But it also gives me pause to think about and recognise those who are doing it a lot tougher in these times.

I hope you're doing OK.

One thing I am grateful for is the timing of our upcoming July Content Sprint, starting next week: 13-19 July. Yes, my kids will be home, rather than at school, which makes things a bit more difficult, but I trust that the spark and energy I get from teaching and the interaction I have with other bloggers like you will far outweigh the inconvenient circumstances. I do hope you can join us.

Many bloggers do an end of year review. It’s a logical time to do an audit of your blog and set goals. I also think that periodically checking in on those goals and setting new ones is a good idea. This being halfway through the year it is a logical time to do just that. Here are my tips to guide how you're tracking.

In this live training I'll take you step-by-step through my content creation workflow - one that I use for blogging, podcasting, live video and even keynote speaking preparation.
