To hold myself accountable and motivated to keep pushing on in my business 2. To (hopefully) provide helpful information to others who are thinking about starting an online side-hustle and are looking for real information about how it can be…

Why Every Small Business Needs a Pinterest Marketing Strategy
In the past six months, I’ve become obsessed with Pinterest. Although I’ve loved using Pinterest for much longer than that!

How to Write Faster as a Freelance Writer
Believe it or not, the biggest challenge of being a freelance writer isn’t finding new clients. It’s finding time to actually do the writing. At least, it is when you also work full-time.
