Prepare For A Strong Last Quarter!

Happy Wednesday friends!

I hope you had an amazing long weekend!

As we start moving toward the last quarter of the year I want to remind all of you that it's not to late to still start the blog, invest in yourself and your social media, or find a side hustle! START NOW, JUST START!

Timing is never perfect for anything and the more time you waste waiting for the perfect moment it’s just never going to happen because the timing will never be what you want! With that being said I would love to help you in your blogging journey or in your social media presence! Why not end 2021 strong and know that you put your best foot forward and invested in yourself and your business to start the new year off strong!

I have 2 spots left for clients this year through the end of 2021 and would love to help you show up on social media for your audience!

Let’s talk a little bit about how I can help: With my social media clients I help create a content calendar for the time we are working together, schedule posts, create graphics and content, help establish highlights and stories and the list go on! For my blogging clients: we look at your blog and see how we can improve it and make it a main call to action on your social channels, we work together to establish brands you want to work with and how your can get their attention along with the partnership opportunities you have once you have a blog space!

1 Year Self-Employed! We Made It!

Happy Wednesday, friends!

This week is another huge milestone and one that probably means the most to me!

Today is the one year anniversary of me leaving my 9-5 office job to pursue my dream of working for myself. This is something I never thought would be possible and just a dream that I would talk about but never truly pursue. To leave the comfort of a consistent paycheck is the scariest thing I’ve probably ever done to be honest!

2020 taught us a lot of things and there were a lot of things that accumulated to help me make that decision to leave. I thought if not now then when? When would I take the leap and bet on myself? So after everything we went through in 2020 I got the push I needed and just did it!

It helps that I had the support of my husband and my business coach and my friends and family but I knew even some of them thought I was a little crazy, but here we are 1 year later and I wouldn’t give this rollercoaster up for anything!

No the journey hasn’t been easy AT ALL but all the blood, sweat, and tears have been worth it and will continue to be worth it as I continue to build my brand and my business! I’m blessed that I can work from anywhere at any time. I’m grateful that this year so far I’ve been able to take mental health days when needed and a 7 day vacation with my family without worrying about using all my PTO or what I’m going to come back to once the trip is over. I’m so happy I can have lunch with my dad or take the day off when my mom has the day off, all things I couldn’t do before. I now have the FREEDOM to live a life that I want and am proud of!

I have a long way to go but in the one year I’ve come so far! I make more than I did at my full time job, I live a life that I create and even though it’s the hardest thing I’ve ever done I’m so proud I took this step instead of just talking about it the rest of my life! In this first year I also built a course to help other women like myself build a blog that they could monetize whether for a hobby or make it a career! If you want this to be your narrative too sign up for my waitlist HERE to be the first to know when my course is coming back!

I can’t thank y’all enough for being there for me on this ride! It’s just the beginning and I can’t wait to see where this journey takes us, because I’m taking y’all with me!

Celebrating Lifestyle with Laramie- 5 Year Blog Anniversary

Happy Tuesday, friends!

This week we have two blog posts going live and we’re are celebrating something super special today! 5 years ago today I launched Lifestyle with Laramie. I could have never imagined that five years later I would be where I am today!

I started my blog as an escape from my 9-5 office job. A place to talk about everything I enjoy from fashion to travel to everything lifestyle. I slowly grew to take on paid brand partnerships and invested in myself. I hired a business coach, I took mastermind classes and webinars. I’ve built a course and products and things I only ever dreamed of.

I quit my job a year ago to pursue this full time and I couldn’t be happier! I’ll talk move about that story and all about that next week!

I’m so thankful for all of you! Whether you have read my blog posts, purchased products, or commented or liked my posts I can’t thank you enough for all your support and kindness over the years! I can’t believe I’ve made it to this point and I can’t wait to see where this continues to go!

Creating A Dream Blog You Can Monetize

Happy Wednesday friends!

Thank you so much to those of you that I’ve seen sign up for my blogging course waitlist! I really appreciate it!

I’m working on some updates in the course and am so excited to reveal it and open the doors to y’all! This course is a labor of love. When I started my blog almost 5 years ago it was HARD WORK! It was not easy to figure out and there wasn’t a course out there that walked you through how to create a blog and the fundamentals of blogging and how it could benefit you. I spent hours upon hours researching and trying to find the answers I thought why not create a course that could help other women create that dream blog that they could actually monetize? That how Building A Blog You Can Monetize came to be!

I would love to answer any questions you might have about the course and how it could benefit you and your business! Be sure to sign up for the waitlist HERE!

The Benefits of Blogging

Happy Wednesday friends!

Let’s talk blogging and all the benefits that blogging offers!

So many people don’t realize that blogging has tons of benefits when it comes to brand partnerships and your audience.

First off it’s so important to have a website/blog if you are an influencer or even a small business because if you are growing an audience on social media you also need a platform you own: your website. This will help reach more people and house everything for your brand where people can always find it. What if something happens to your social media? Then what? You need something that you actually own and control.

Having a blog will also help if you are an influencer and looking to expand your brand partnership offerings by offering blog posts along with social media posts. This is a great tool to help as brands love having blog posts to corelate with social media posts.
