As a business owner, my mind is constantly being pulled in many directions.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If you're also a business owner, I'm sure you can relate. We wear a ton of hats! How do you keep it all organized??⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Start thinking of your brand as a person.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
You can kind of picture them, right? For instance, maybe your brand is a person who is very friendly and vivacious; they are going to get the job done for you. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
They're going to be fun along the way. They're friendly and witty and going to be your cheerleader. They're optimistic. They're going to help you realize your vision and also make sure that you're not stressed out during the process. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
And then on the flip side, what words would you NOT want someone to use to describe your brand?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
In our case, we considered what emotional attributes we want associated with our brand. Some of those words are happiness, calm, confidence, and joy. Yes, some of these may seem like no-brainers that everyone want's associated with their work, but when you name them as integral to your brand, these words guide you when you write sales copy, onboard clients, tackle your visual brand, and more.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

As you build your website, your main focus is likely on the launch—which is good!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
But here is what happens: You spend all of this time building a beautiful website. Then you heavily promote your website. This drives traffic to your website, but how do you capture that interest and keep talking to your clients once they leave your website?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
With email subscriptions!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Create an email Welcome Sequence to keep the interest the folks visiting your website. If they don't convert into a client right away, your emails will continue to build their trust in your expertise that may later convert into a client. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I get it, it's hard to keep all of this straight. That is why I created 3DayWP to help walk you through all of these steps. We'll walk you through how to write a Welcome Sequence AND how to set it up so it'll run auto-magically ;) Follow the link in my bio to learn more!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

As you build your website, your main focus is likely on the launch. Which is good!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
But here is what happens, you spend all of this time building a beautiful website. Then you heavily promote said website. This drive traffic to your website, but how to you capture that interest?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
With email subscriptions!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
My advice to you is to create a Welcome Sequence in order to grab the emails and keep the interest of those visiting your website. If they don't convert into a client right away, your emails will continue to build their trust in your expertise that may later convert into a client.

As an entrepreneur, you eventually have quite a few resources up your sleeve. The ones you found while you were trying to figure out how to make it all work. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
is one of those resources for me. This platform is actually a tool meant for getting content of all kinds from clients to service providers like me. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
But a cool trick I found it to use it to write your own website words because they have a really great template in there for a starter website that is going to show you where your content is going as you're writing it. It's worth checking out!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

I wanted freedom. I wanted the freedom to make my own schedule that would allow me to have a better work-life balance. I set out on a journey of entrepreneurship and soon my hours began to fill up. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
But then I notice something, my freedom also started dwindling away. Once again I was attached to my weekly hours. While I was extremely grateful for the work I was getting, I knew there had to be a more efficient way.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
That is when I decided to ditch the hourly model in favor of an appointment model.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Want to see why it's the best decision I've made for myself and my business? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
