WHAT DO YOU DO?

We sell blog posts to companies that are too busy to write the blog posts themselves. We have more than 10,000 vetted U.S. writers. We are a business blog’s best friend.

 

WHY DO YOU DO IT?

To help small businesses and agencies look bigger by having a great blog, and to provide an opportunity for stay-at-home writers to do what they do best.

 

WHAT IMPACT ARE YOU MAKING?

Small businesses and agencies appreciate us a lot, and the writers really enjoy the positive, safe space we’ve built for them.

 

WHAT (OR WHO) INSPIRES YOU TO MAKE THIS IMPACT?

The little stories we hear from writers and from customers about how much we’ve improved things for them.

 

WHAT IS (OR HAS BEEN) YOUR GREATEST CHALLENGE?

Figuring out the right ways to grow.

 

WHAT WORDS OF ADVICE DO YOU HAVE FOR OTHER LEADERS WHO ARE LOOKING TO MAKE AN IMPACT?

Having ideas is the easy part. If you have a new idea, my advice is to get the idea out there in the world and see if it resonates with others in real ways. Then really listen. That’s when the magic happens.

 

HOW CAN OTHERS SUPPORT YOU OR YOUR CAUSE?

By going out and trying new things.
