It’s frustrating right?

You’re knocking out tons of good blog posts, and people are liking them.

Social media shares are on the rise. Traffic is steadily growing.

You can feel the momentum building.

But something is missing, and it’s the thing you need most.

No one is taking action and subscribing to your email list or engaging with your content.

So what do you do?

You could do something drastic like stop your content marketing efforts all together.

Maybe you could adjust who it is you are targeting with your content.

Or the easiest option, just give up – online marketing isn’t for you.

Chances are, none of these things are the answer.

Before you run off and start changing everything about your content marketing strategy, sit tight.

You can make amazing strides in your blog conversion rates with just a few tricks.

Any of the following ideas can help you build your email list and increase engagement on your blog.

If you use a blog to promote your business you’ve tapped into one of the most effective online marketing strategies available.

Blogging lets you get in front of potential customers who may be interested in your brand that you can’t find through traditional marketing channels.

Having a quality logo is just as important for your blog as it is on your main website. You should put your logo on your blog, as well as on any other online (or offline) assets and materials you use to promote your brand.

Take a look at any of the top brands in the world today, and you will quickly notice how important it is to uniquely brand yourself and stand out from the crowd. This is called “brand saturation” and means that people will be able to find your logo and branding in several different locations and platforms.

If your brand logo is not what you need it to be, you may want to consider using any of the professional design tools or services below. No matter if you already have a great logo design, or are simply looking to expand your collections of online designs and resources, check out our list of seven hand-selected design tools.

1. TailorBrands

We all make mistakes.

Sometimes these errors are minor, but other times they are grave. You need to learn how to avoid these mistakes.

Launching your own business is no easy task. As someone who has helped multiple startups to get off the ground, I know this process firsthand.

Things don’t always go as planned. Research shows that 90% of startup companies fail.

Sure, everything looked good on paper. You found the perfect name for your startup, but you hit some speed bumps along the way that you may not have been prepared for.

If your most recent business venture didn’t work out, it’s nothing to be ashamed of.

I get it. You poured your heart and soul into this project. The failure seems tough to overcome, especially if it cost you some money.

But your story doesn’t need to end here. You want to be an entrepreneur. That’s why you attempted to launch a business in the first place.

Don’t just accept defeat and try to get a standard nine-to-five job like everyone else out there. I know plenty of people who couldn’t get their startup off the ground.

You have two paths from here. You can either quit or move forward. Don’t fall into the group of entrepreneurs who quit.

I’ll show you how you can take that failed launch and turn it into an advantage that will move you forward. Here’s what you need to do.
