2021 Podcast Plan

There will be two podcasts per month for Break Into Travel Writing.

Once a month will be an in-depth interview focusing on all things travel blogging and travel writing including social media, seo, monetizing, media trips, writing, productivity and more. The type of podcasts you’ve been listening to all along on the podcast.

The second podcast each month will share tips from my newly revised 2021 Ebook entitled 30 Days to Launch a Travel Blogging or Writing Career. This is an ebook I wrote several years ago and is the first tutorial my students in the Travel Writer’s Academy are given.

Beginning with day 1, I will share the entire lesson from the Ebook on the podcast. Each lesson will be short and sweet and come with a free pdf download worksheet. These are bitesize tasks that can help you get clear about your travel writing dreams.

30 Days to Launch a Travel Blogging or Writing Career EBook

The entire Ebook is available as a downloadable PDF and shares the step by step plan to go from aspiring travel writer to a travel writer or blogger with step by step instructions for each day & it can be found here: 30 Day to Launch a Travel Blogging Career Ebook.

The 30-day foundation course lays the groundwork needed to launch a travel blogging or travel writing career from the launch of your website to landing media trips whether those are group press trips or solo trips!

If you already have a website but are struggling to find your audience, build traffic and understand how to work with affiliates, this Ebook and podcast series will be super valuable to you as well.

What’s Next? I’m planning a conference focused on how to earn money as a travel blogger.

With everything still up in the air to a large degree as we as a world navigate covid and the vaccine and when travel will open and what it will look like, it’s been hard to make a final decision and pull the trigger on booking a venue.

I’ll let you know more about this as I begin to do more planning for the monetization conference. As soon as I set a date, I’ll let you in my podcast community know first and you’ll be the first to have access to sign up after my Travel Academy Members.

I hope 2021 brings you happiness, health, and travel. I know we are all antsy to get out there and especially travel to destinations that we may have had to cancel in 2020 or ones beyond a car ride away. Here’s hoping it happens soon and in 2021.
