Hey hey! Welcome to Anthill Club. Here, we do the work that's necessary to get the life we dream of for ourselves. Ants don't dream (I think?), but they get shit done. And so we, too, must get our shit done. And over at The Side Blogger, we do it by: - having offers to sell, and then - creating content (posts and emails) that attracts the right audience for that offer To that end... some ground rules: ✅ Share what you're doing to move the needle (making a product, creating content, sending a newsletter, etc.) ✅ Share achievements (every eureka moment is a win. Even just 1 new subscriber is a win! Added a digit to your net income? That's a win! Sent an email? That's a win, too!) ✅ Do your dang best to finish what you say you'd do (life happens, but try your best anyway!) ⚠️ As for how much you share... you can be as transparent or as mysterious as you want. It's not really about *what* you're doing... but that you're doing something to move the needle. ⛔ If you're inactive for over a month, you'll be kicked out. ⛔ If you act in a way deemed uncouth, you'll be banned. Feel free to let me know if you, as a club member, notice any such behavior. 👉 Now, to prove that you've read all this, reply to this post, say hi, and tell us about your biz. 🤩 And then, feel free to create a new post with goals and/or achievements for this week. And continue to create posts every week :) ☑️ What's allowed in this club: → You can post anything related to your business and life that you can comfortably share. Your goals, achievements, and even ideas you think will help fellow anthillers... and, more importantly, help each other out whenever you can. ❤️ This is still new, so I'm counting on you to shape the future of this space that is actually useful to you and the rest of the anthillers :) Let's go! 😻

Everyone... help me choose. Do you want me to add a new post where you can add your goals for the week? Or would you like to just create a new post with your goals on your own time?

Feel free to tell us what your newsletter is about in the comments, and share a link to subscribe. And go over some of the replies to see if you find any of these useful to you personally, and if you do, feel free to subscribe :) === ⛔ Please do not treat it as a "follow for follow" scheme. Only subscribe to a newsletter if you personally find it interesting and helpful, and DO NOT expect the other person to reciprocate. That's not how an authentic relationship is born.

The past few weeks my site traffic has taken a big dip, I think mainly due to my Pinterest traffic declining significantly (for a reason I've yet to figure out). I've pouted about it for a few days, but my goal for the remainder of this week is to figure out how to adapt- make tweaks to my Pinterest strategy, create some fresh content, maybe create a new product for my subscribers.

So, since this super elite club is all about getting shit done, I want to highlight what I think is the most important thing: The stuff that makes your creation possible. In other words... Your income. I don't care if you started your business three minutes ago... everything you do should propel you toward making money. Even your service (your ability to help someone) relies on you being able to cover your living expenses first (and your general well-being, of course). So... question for you... How much do you need to make to cover your living expenses? Write that down in a post-it or something, and then stick it to a place where you can see it daily. Then do what you must to make that money. "What you must" in this case is your most important task. It is not creating your perfect logo (logos don't make money unless you're a logo designer... and if that's the case, well, my apologies... go make some logos..!!) It is definitely not taking the best professional-looking portrait for your website (heck... I don't have a single photo of myself on my site!) It is building your audience and selling to them. So, do something daily that will build your audience and make you money. And once you hit the amount you've written down in your post-it note, then you can go be fancy. ✌️
