Hi, I'm Hope
My journey into blogging started years ago, when "Live Journals" became a "big thing".
In the last 15 years, I've worked as an Event Producer for a national charity, running one of the largest conferences for television producers in the world. I was also a renaissance festival performer for about 4 years. But when my husband and I decided to start a family, I focused on my small event photography business. That is when I found blogging for business and discovered what a powerful tool it can be!
Since then, I have personally built 3 businesses through blogs, over 50 blogs for other companies and worked to create a programs that will help others build their businesses. Over the last 2 years, I have taught over 400 bloggers to build their dreams into WordPress reality.
I get how overwhelming it can be to learn the basics of blogging. That is why I developed DIY BYOB - to help others skip the frustration and jump right in.
You're too busy living a full life to spend hours on each step of building a blog.
You’re ready for DIY BYOB if:
- You’re tired of blog posts that promise you can start a blog in five minutes but are impossible to follow
- You’ve tried doing it yourself but got lost on step one
- You’re ready for clear, easy to follow instructions and videos that take less than 8 minutes to watch
- You want to build your business and know blogging is an important part of that strategy
- You’re a motivated woman, ready to share your knowledge with the world!
But Hope, I’ve tried to start a blog before!
Starting a blog on your own is hard. There is no one to ask questions when you get stuck and you don’t even know what to Google to find help.
DIY BYOB is different. It is a comprehensive, step by step course that SHOWS you exactly what to do with short videos.
You can keep searching...
Digging deep into blog posts and online guides, desperate for help with your questions.
Avoiding starting your blog for another month as you watch people who started their businesses after you pull ahead in the online marketplace.
Telling yourself that you’ll finally start your blog when you find ALL the answers.
or…
You can join DIY BYOB for one low price and have a blog up within hours!
