Bold Pick of the Week: You
Though it may not be apparent through my site, fear not, I have not abandoned my BOLD campaign. In fact, like all good campaigns it is a constant process. I am really excited to share that the Bold Pick this week is you. I realize that this is a very broad idea, so let me explain.
Remember…
When I first started my Bold Campaign and published the link on my various social networks I did receive some wonderful feedback and ideas. One of these ideas was to give guest blogging a try. This could mean someone writing a guest post for my site, or me writing a post for someone else. Either way, the guest post would serve two main purposes.
1) Similar topic discussion, different personality
Yes, it is your blog. However, to think you know it all (especially as an amateur like myself) is silly. Guest writing is a fantastic way to expand the insights your site can provide to your audience.
2) Networking!
A guest blog not only expands insight, it can also draw attention from a new audience. If the person that you’ve asked to write a piece for you has a following of their own, chances are they’ll bring a few of those followers to look at the piece they posted on your site. That’s an important start of expanding. It also benefits the writer, since they’ll draw interest from the existing audience of your site. It’s win-win and a great way to continue building your network!
Bold Pick…
I finally took that leap and decided to post a request for guest writers for “From M.E. to You.” I realized that with the month of May being as busy as it’s going to be with finals, traveling, etc. this would be a great opportunity for a guest post or two.
I have received a few responses and I am happy to announce that for the last three weeks of May, “From M.E. to You,” will be featuring various guest writers. All I can say is stay tuned – it’s going to be pretty sweet seeing what you have to offer.
