Moving On Up and Trying Something New
It’s kind of hard to believe that it’s been just over a year that I started blogging with Denimology. Blogging was just something that sat on the back of my mind for so long, as a venture I might like to try as I love to write and share ideas with others, whether it’s to inspire or relate with like-minded people. I sat around and mulled over the idea for a long time because I wasn’t sure I could constantly produce enough content. The denim obsession was already a given, so when I saw the ad for new denim reviewers on a regular Denimology newsletter over a year ago, I didn’t even have to think twice in responding to it! And now, here I am, with no prior blogging experience just a year or so ago, with a full-blown blog that I’ve consistently posted daily content on and a brand new opportunity that’s just landed on my lap…I am now the Brand Relationship Manager at Denimology! Of course, I’m a little nervous, but it’s definitely one of those things that just feels right. Going into anything new is always a little scary, but when you just get into that uninterrupted flow that proves you’ve found a true passion, the fear just seems to melt away and there’s hardly a second thought. I am so excited to be a solid part of the Denimology team and be an influencer in all of this popular denim blog’s future ventures! I have had so much fun corresponding with brands and doing my best to represent them in the best way possible.
My life is already so super busy as it is, and adding anything new to it always even makes my mom (and me, sometimes) cringe a little. Believe me, I’d do it all if I could (sooo what about that cloning thing, scientists?). I always believe in living large, taking the bull by the horns, and always living in such a way that the question “what if?” will never be asked once everything’s said and done. To keep up with this new venture and even my 9-5 career, which is still running full blast, I think I might try something new here with my blog…instead of a daily post, I’m going to try posting three times a week on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, starting today! I’m curious how this will go for everyone subscribed and everyone who follows me…I never wanted to overload people with posts, but I knew as a new blogger it would be a good idea to run full blast like this in order to get the ball rolling and fill the site up with as much content as I could for Google rankings, gaining the right momentum and to engage readers (and, there’s just too many awesome things out there to share)! Some of my favorite bloggers who I look up to, who are on a level that I aspire to reach someday, post maybe once or twice a week. So I’m giving this a go, for two main reasons: to allow myself to dedicate more time to Denimology, and in order to spend more time writing and planning richer, more engaging posts on my own blog right here! I get a lot of stuff I’d love to write about every day, but one of my big goals for 2015 is to make it just a bit more personal.
So feel free to offer any thoughts…I am not really one for New Years resolutions, but 2015 has gotten off to an amazing start already, and I feel like it’s ready to try some new things and take some brand new steps. To everyone who’s been reading my posts and following me lately, I’m sending you a BIG FAT THANK YOU!
