Should I blog my journey to online success or failure?
First of all, I just want to say I'm absolutely loving this forum. I don't think many people (some clearly do of course) realise just how powerful some of the info is in many of the threads created.
Secondly, I think I should make something clear. I'm not an IM or copywriting expert. I just got PM'd about helping someone with their sales copy, which made me chuckle.
However, my strength is that I am a 'perpetual student'. That is, I am always studying and reading books. Whether it's Bly's 'The Online Copywriter's Handbook', 'Triggers' by Sugarman, or Jeff Walker's 'Product Launch Formula' or whatever.
I'm glad I enjoy studying. My understanding of others leads me to believe that by being a willing student of the experts, I'm already ahead of the game.
However, I haven't developed any product to be sold online as yet. Why? Well, up until this point, I wasn't sure if I wanted to.
You see, I love my offline job.
No, honestly, I really do.
I make a comfortable income. I don't lack anything at all. I enjoy what I do, and most of all I enjoy the fact that what I do benefits others.
I'm not trying to be all soft and namby-pamby with you here, but there's nothing like helping others. I'm sure most of you have experienced that. If you haven't, what are you waiting for?
With that all said, and in spite of the fact I don't think I'll ever give up my offline job, I'm real serious about taking a stab at this online stuff in my spare time.
It's not that I think it looks particularly easy, or that I think I have the silver bullet to achieve online success...
I'm just, I suppose, tempted.
So, what I was wondering was, do you think I should blog my journey?
I know blogging can take hard work effort, but I'm not really thinking of producing a blog which will make me money. I am thinking along the lines that blogging what I'm doing and how I'm getting on, could be beneficial to others.
What do you think? Is there a negative to this I am missing, or should I just spend my time more wisely?
