Introducing Mentoring with The Blogger Course

I’m excited to announce that I’m offering a new service to run alongside The Blogger Course. One-to-one mentoring!

This comes after many requests from people on the course wanting a more focused, one-to-one program where they can work closely with me to grow and improve their blog.

Course members have access to a Facebook group where we’re all regularly chatting and sharing ideas, questions, opportunities and thoughts. We have regular chats and I’m always there to answer questions – but my new mentoring service will take things a couple of steps further.

I’ll be offering mentoring on a 6 session basis and I’ll only take on two new bloggers each month. This is because I want to give you 100% to help you on your blogging journey.

If you want to turn your blog into your career then I can help you fast track your way up the blogging ladder.

I’ve learned everything I know through almost 10 years of blogging and a career in journalism and social media marketing. The skills I learned through my career helped me to step up my blogging game and I’m here to share my knowledge with you. I want this mentoring program to help you skip all of those years of trial and error and get straight on with growing your blog.

I’m also an ideas person and I love making plans and projects to help you as a blogger. For me, nothing is more exciting than sitting down and saying, ‘Right, how are we going to double your traffic this month?’ or ‘How can we make your blog bigger and better than similar blogs in your niche?’ or even ‘How are we going to plan that epic adventure and ensure your blog can sustain your lifestyle while you travel?’

As part of this mentoring package I’ll be offering a blog audit followed by 4 initial one-to-one sessions spread over 4 weeks. After these sessions you’re going to have a lot of ideas and lots to do so I’ll leave you to it for 3 months to start actioning all these ideas we’ve come up with. We’ll have another session after 3 months to make sure you’re on track and then another in 6 months.

Our one-to-one sessions will be a one hour chat. The topic will be customised to your needs – this can be done however you feel most comfortable, whether that’s over the phone, Skype, Whatsapp, Facebook chat or email. Whichever platform works best for you!

After this chat I’ll put together your weekly action plan with how you’re going to do everything we’ve discussed. This plan will be broken down into a step-by-step manual for you to take away and do in your own time. It will simplify all of the tasks that seem so big and daunting and will make them manageable and achievable.

The kind of areas we can focus on will be:

• Finding your niche
• Growing your social media following and engagement
• How to work with brands
• Monetisation
• How to create profitable campaigns
• Affiliate income
• Blog design
• Content strategy
• Growing your readership
• SEO
• Photography and videography
• Your writing style
• Developing your brand
• Outsourcing

After our 4 weeks I’ll help you put together a one year blogging business plan to ensure your blog is growing and improving and you have actionable strategies to ensure you get to the level you want to be at.

The cost for this 6 month mentor program is £799.

This includes:

• Initial blog audit
• 4 x one-to-one sessions
• 4 x weekly action plans
• Unlimited email support for these 4 weeks
• Your one year blogging business plan
• 3 month check-in
• 6 month check-in

You’ll have the opportunity to ask me anything and anyone who knows me can tell you that I don’t hold back. I’ll share everything I’ve learned and I’ll adapt everything I’ve done to help you develop your skills as a blogger.

Please note that this mentoring package is only available to bloggers already enrolled on The Blogger Course.
