A tale of 13 cities.

It occurred to me today that I’ve visited 13 cities in 8 countries in the past year.

I realise this sprawled on my bed in a dark room in my Garfield shorts, thinking over the past year (drained from a day of walking).

From London to Tallinn, Helsinki, Pärnu, Belgrade, Sofia, Warsaw, Istanbul to Tbilisi and more.

It’s rather crazy.

And I did it all while running my business.

That’s probably the most places I’ve visited in a year.

I say this not to brag (well, a little).

But this does point to something I am here to help you with.

You don’t need to be tied to any one place if you don’t want to be.

You can work from anywhere.

Now, of course, you don’t need to. But it’s nice to have that option.

There’s one thing that gives me these options, and no, it’s not being rich.

It’s that I’ve prioritised location-independent, remote income.

And because that’s a priority, I’ve made personal brand-building a priority too.

A personal brand is basically having people aware of you around the world via the Internet.

And the way I’ve built this brand has been through writing.

When people know you this way, you can sell products and services from wherever.

It’s cool.

And here’s the other thing about this:

You don’t need thousands of followers.

You just need a way to charge people for things over the Internet (who already like your ideas).

It could be, for example, that you run a few online workshops through the year and make money that way.

Either way, an audience of people interested in what you have to say is key here.

This is who you sell your products to.

And it starts with creating content and being consistent with it.

If you’d like more choices in life, grow your brand with content.

AND - if you’d like help writing BETTER so your writing actually attracts fans, get your hands on Online Writing Alchemy.

Consistency + Knowing how to write well = a growing brand of people who like you and buy from you.
