About the book

I’ve been blogging for over 10 years and this book has been written to help you solve real problems, for real people and focuses on:

• designing a blog around your values, interests and time commitments;
• creating content, sharing your ideas and seeking feedback; and
• defining what you offer, your ideal customer and launching your Minimum Viable Product (MVP).

It aims to help current and aspiring creatives, freelancers, bloggers, flexible workers, business owners and side hustlers with limited time.

This book is not designed for people who have an existing business and want to create a blog as a menu item on their website to drive traffic, otherwise known as content marketing.

You’re going to be learning about how I’ve done the reverse–starting a blog, maintaining it through multiple iterations and big life changes (like moving countries four times and having two kids).

Over time, I’ve used it to test business ideas based on my original content and conversations with people around the world.

What started as an online expat travel diary and a means for me to remain connected with family and friends abroad, turned into:

• media requests;
• guest speaking opportunities;
• connecting with strangers;
• advocating for issues she’s passionate about;
• validating business ideas;
• creating a growing community; and
• making a positive impact.

This is the magic of getting your ideas out of your head and into the world!

By the end of this book, you’ll have a clear idea of:

• what themes your blog will focus on;
• how and when you’ll create original content;
• who your ideal customer is and how you’ll reach them; and
• what solution you’ll offer, launch and test.

Startup Blogging: Validate A Business Idea and Build Your Audience contains links to resources and templates to help you work through the exercises and action items mentioned in the book.

Feedback on Startup Blogging:

Part of the contents of this book were originally created and delivered by me as a conference workshop for an event in 2019.

The content has been carefully edited to focus on making it more digestible and actionable, encouraging you to startup blogging now and test your ideas over the coming months.

“I liked that the focus was on organic development of community and ideas instead of just social media marketing. I also like the periodic questions to consider what I wanted to do with the information.”

“Enjoyed the ideas for how to share your message or find out what resonates with people.”

“I love Amy’s generosity with sharing her knowledge and experience. Really great session.”

“Lots of useful ideas for starting and growing an audience.”

“(I enjoyed) the personal experiences of the presenter, interaction with audience, resource materials and focus on doing things for passion rather than just for money.”

“The topic is very interesting and well presented.”

“Very inspiring.”
