Hey there, you wildly successful travelpreneur!
This newsletter is coming at ya a little bit later than usual but there was no way I wasn’t gonna send this one…
Why?
Coz this is the 25th issue! Can you believe it?
When I started this newsletter as an experiment, my goal was to send 25 newsletters. Half a year - that’s what a committed to.
Why 25?
Well, according to Khe Hy of Rad Reads, 25 is the magic number. Doing something for 25 consecutive weeks is hard but once you cross the 25-week mark, the process becomes internalized. But besides that, he believes that starting an email newsletter and sticking with it for at least 25 weeks will transform your life.
And I can now attest to it. This newsletter has opened the door for me in more ways than I could ever have imagined.
Opportunities
Connections
Invitations
Income
Fun
And now that I’ve reached 25, I can’t imagine stopping. So, it’s only the beginning of this transformation for my biz & life.
Plus, the positive feedback I’ve received from you dear readers makes me even more confident that this is the best business move I’ve made this year!
Psst...have you ever gotten a deal from an opportunity I posted in the newsletter? Or do you just enjoy the content? Hit reply to this email and tell me about it! Absolutely makes my day every time!
I love sharing exciting opportunities with you and knowing that my effort helps you becomethe wildly successful travelpreneur.
So, here’s to 25 more issues!
Here’s what you can expect for the rest of August:
9 August - answers to all your burning questions about pitching editors at magazines for commissions.
16 August - my 5-step pitch process to get your travel story published.
23 August - a breakdown of a winning query letter.
30 August - a surprise!
Additionally, I plan to host a free 5-day list-building challenge at the end of this month (if there’s enough interest). Starting and growing an email list for a travel blog is something I get asked about a lot but I only want to create this challenge if it’s something you actually want.
So, please go drop 🙋 in the comments of this post in the Wildly Successful Travelpreneurs Facebook Group if you’re up for the challenge.
I’ll share a link to the sign-up page next week.
