“You can make anything by writing.”
~ C.S. Lewis
When you started your business, what were the things you most looked forward to? I’m sure you can quickly come up with a long list of things you couldn’t wait to do.
Now let me ask you another question. Was writing for your blog anywhere on your list?
Unless you are a writer by profession, I’m willing to bet your answer was no.
Yet in today’s world, writing is becoming more of a necessity than ever before.
When you go into business today, you have to set up a website. And from there, they tell you to develop social accounts on places like Facebook, Twitter and Pinterest as well. And with all of that comes writing … a LOT of writing every single day of the week.
In today’s world, 1 in 4 websites are being built on a WordPress platform. Chances are your own site uses WordPress. And because WordPress gives you the capability of blogging or adding content in an easy way, writing is the one thing you should be doing.
Yet how do you fit that much writing into your already busy schedule? And more importantly, what do you write about?
Is it possible to find things to write about every single day?
Why The Right Words Have Power
What can you do with great writing?
You can change the world!
You can turn a foe into a friend by letting your words fall into place.
You can convince someone to buy everything from a penny gumball to a million dollar yacht.
You can change the course of history by establishing a new law.
You can create the greatest story every told, sharing it with millions of readers all over the world.
The world revolves around putting great words together to provide an inspiring message that reaches out and touches the heart of it proper recipient.
Yet outside of a professional writer, most never think much about it.
Consider these two writings:
It’s pretty obvious that one has the power to pull you in at a much higher level than the other. Yet ask most people in business to write something about who they are – an About Us page for instance – and you’re far more likely to receive the response on the left.
Why?
Because most business owners simply aren’t trained on how to write effectively for the online world.
The Difference Between Writing and Blog Writing
When you sit down to write a letter or create a brochure to hand out in a traditional manner, your writing style is more formal. You’ll have one contact with the person you are mailing to, and with that one contact comes the necessity to capture attention and provide enough information to evoke action.
A lot to accomplish with one small form of marketing, right?
Yet when you write in the online world, content is less formal and in much more abundance. A typical 5 year old blog can look like this.
Written on once per day would give you
365 posts per year or
1,825 posts in five years
500 words on average per post would give you
182,500 words per year or
333,062,500 words in five years
That’s a lot of posts! That’s a lot of words!
With that many posts and that many words, what do you write about? Can you really find that much to say every single day, year after year?

“After reading your stories, I realize most people don’t know how to write.
You bring anything to life and make me want more, and more!
I want to do what you do!” ~Theresa C
