Up In My Business

Episode 173: Blogging Has Never Been "Dead"


Listen Later

Summary

In this episode, I'm getting into something I see come up again and again: Your ideal client may not even know that your service can help them, and that's a real problem worth addressing. I share a real-life example from a volleyball game where a woman was troubleshooting her shoulder pain by cycling through chiropractic, acupuncture, and MRI recommendations, never once landing on the solution that might have actually helped her most. I also revisit why blogging is absolutely not dead. In fact, it's one of the most powerful long-term tools you have, especially as AI search pulls directly from your website content. If you're not publishing, you simply won't show up... period.


What I Talked About

  • My personal update on the Google Ads course I'm developing and the mental blocks I'm working through around it
  • A quick business update: I'm not taking new clients right now outside of pre-booked website projects
  • Why your ideal client is searching their symptoms, not your service — and what that means for your content strategy
  • The real reason blogging will never be dead, no matter what anyone tells you
  • How AI search results like ChatGPT actually work — and why they depend entirely on your website content
  • A story from my inner circle about a client who found her pelvic PT through a symptom-based blog search
  • Why writing to your client's symptoms and lived experience matters more than leading with your service name
