A few weeks ago I posted about setting up a business plan. I noticed that someone had stumbled upon Piqulette trying to find advice on breaking even in graphic design. This inspired me to share a little bit about my goals and “business plan”. It has been a hectic few weeks, so blog posts have been slow, but I never wanted to let a week go by without a post (goal #1?).
One of my goals is to start helping people grow their business through the knowledge I have gained over the years of observing rather than trying to be in charge myself. Hopefully I learned enough in that time to help myself. And the way I am starting to help others is to build my reputation as someone who has that knowledge. Continuing to be the go to person, but now on my own terms.
This blog is one of the ways I am hoping to build up to that goal. I want my audience to understand my knowledge and learn about me. I want you to interact and help me understand what you want to hear from me! Listening to as much as I can to try to learn what my audience wants is another way. I will only be able to help people if I know what they need help with.
So I need everyone’s help with my goals too. Who are my readers? Why do you visit the blog? What can I help you with? What do you want to see more of? Do you think I am on the right track already? Leave me comments! All the time! On every post! I need you if I am going to succeed!
And since it seems everyone always thinks a blog post is better with an image, maybe I’ll try that. Since I am contemplating what you want from me (yeah – you reader!), this self portrait (and my awesome husband) seemed appropriate….
