Brewing Up a Blog Post: From Idea to Ink (or Pixels!)
Ever wonder how a blog post comes to life? It's a bit like crafting the perfect cup of coffee at CoffeeHouse 29 one of our local shops here in Colorado – a blog post is a blend of inspiration, careful preparation, and a dash of spontaneity.
This morning, I decided to document the process of creating this very post, and it's been a surprisingly enjoyable blend of ideas that's kept me entertained all day while creating this new landing page and bonus workshop.
Here's the behind-the-scenes look at how this post came to be, and how you can apply the same 'CoffeeHouse 29' approach to your own blogging:
The Idea Spark: It started with a simple thought, much like ordering your favorite latte. "I want to create a blog post about making a blog post." From there, we, that's me and my AI assistant Sage over in Gemini, we started brainstorming. It was a bit like a lively conversation at a corner table at the back of the room – a bit random, a bit insightful, but ultimately leading somewhere.
It started with a Vision
The Blend of Ideas: Sage and I then began to refine the idea, focusing on the steps I took to create this post. It was literally a back-and-forth, refining and adding details, just like a barista carefully adjusting the ingredients of a signature drink.
The Real-Time Snapshot: To show you just how organic this process was, I've included a 2-minute screen recording of our chat session from this morning. You can see the evolution of the idea in real-time, it only took minutes. Wave video here. Wave is a great platform for creating simple video landing pages. My Affiliate Link
The Practical Brew: The beauty of this process is that it's not about having a perfectly planned script. It's about letting the conversation guide you. So, here's the takeaway:
Start with a simple idea, like ordering your favorite drink.
Let the ideas flow, like a conversation at a coffee shop.
Capture the process, like taking a snapshot of the moment.
Turn it into a blog post, like serving up a delicious brew!
It's about finding the flavor and the relatable moments in the everyday. And who knows, maybe your 'post about a post' will turn into something quite remarkable and bring something magical and new into your life. From here, the Landing Page was created along with this post in one afternoon, Subscribe for Updates.
Now, let’s talk about brewing up something even more special, let's talk about co-branded products!
Just like collaborating with your favorite barista to create a custom drink, I want to collaborate with you to create custom-branded products. Instead of focusing on 'selling' a book package, I want to invite you to collaborate on creating something truly unique for your business or organization.
Imagine having a custom-branded notebook, journal, planner, or even a collection of promotional items that perfectly represents your brand and resonates with your audience. And the best part? It costs nothing to get started. Co-Branded Landing Page.
If you love this idea and see the potential for your business or non-profit, you can buy me a virtual coffee! If, for any reason, you don't feel it's the right fit, I'll happily plan to buy your coffee when we next meet in person.
