I will not let my sales figures dictate what I say on the blog, because the blog is what I want to say.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
If I said I was going to make a newsletter that made $2-$3 million a year, no one would question me. If I say, 'It's a blog,' everyone questions me.
It's bizarre to say all bloggers are sellouts.
I didn't really care about sales figures. I just wanted to get things off my chest.
While I love the medium, I've always been skeptical about the value of blogs as businesses.
I will not stop my blog.
Do I think there's going to be a business in blogging? Yes.
We all need to focus on our writing. Because the millions of readers out there don't care about your blog.
In sales, it's not what you say; it's how they perceive what you say.
I don't really know anything about sales figures, to be honest with you.
Each piece of content you create should lead your readers further down the path to purchase. Typically, sales and leads won't happen until a prospect has had multiple points of contact with you, so don't expect sales after a single blog post.
