“I want to make a course around a 100 day content challenge” I said.
“No one is going to do that” They said back to me.
“But I did it.” I said.
“You’re not like other people.”
This was a conversation I had on Saturday with an awesome person who was helping me with my marketing. This compliment made my day, but it also made me shift my plans for the course I wanted to create.
I’m on day 106 of my 100 day content challenge. I've decided to go for 1000 days. (posting six days a week, spending at least 100 minutes on content. If i miss a day I’m set back 7 days) and I’m at the point where I’m ready to help other people. Part of my goal for this next year was to create a content course, but this Saturday I was reminded that products don’t need to be perfect, they need to be useful.
I’m ready to create something useful right now.
My plan is to create a seven day free content challenge by the end of the week and begin working on a 30 day challenge which will be done by the end of the month.
This morning I created a customer persona and a sales funnel. If you’re interested in seeing my notion board and what that looks like I’ve linked it here. Inside if you click where the work is done you can see the structure of my customer personas and sales funnel.
