It’s been a weird couple of weeks. Or months. Who can tell anymore?
(I’m kidding. Per my calendar, I haven’t left my house for almost six weeks.)
On the one hand, I’ve had a hard time coping with the COVID-19 crisis. Concentrating on work? While people are dying and the economy is collapsing? Yeah right.
On the other hand, I’ve had to keep busy somehow. So, by some divine providence, I’ve managed a full-time workload.
And, because there’s not much else to do, I’m also pushing forward with the 10 Bottle Bar. It’s been a pet project for years, but now I’m actually working on it! Not only that, but I’m lucky enough to have a few friends and major resources to get it off the ground quickly.
Exciting stuff!
Content Marketing for Southern Oregon Businesses
Here’s the thing:
I’m not the only person who has a lot of free time and a business to start (while the world burns). Many of us in Southern Oregon—Ashland, Talent, Phoenix, Medford—are in the same boat. We’re all killing time, wondering where our next paycheck will come from…
And if our business idea will actually work.
I think a lot of business ideas will work. I do digital marketing for a living. I specialize in content marketing (A.K.A. inbound marketing). And at this time, I’m willing to help others pursue their goals as well, on a pay-what-you-can basis.
Like, kinda.
Like, within reason.
Currently, I’m helping a friend start his online coffee subscription business. Locals, you must know Rogue Valley Roasting Co., right? Well, I’m a huge fan of their coffee (and I play D&D with the owner). Because we’re buds, I’m hooking him up with an inbound marketing plan and some content.
I’m willing to help others as well. Fair warning: Probably not for free.
The Limited Time Offer
So, if you lost your job, and if you have a business idea while quarantine is still happening, I may be able to help. On the cheap. I have no idea how long this offer will last. A month? Two months? Until there’s a working vaccine? (Ugh. Let’s hope not.)
Here’s what I will do:
- Help you understand the basics of inbound marketing.
- Develop a short content strategy.
- Create a 2-month marketing plan for your business.
I can do all this on a pay-what-you-can basis. We can get creative, too, if you’re short on cash. Think work trades, testimonials, etc.
I can write the content as well, but we’d have to negotiate a bit more on that.
Oh yeah, and if you need help with a logo, images, branding, or other graphical wizardry, we can call in the local designer Micah Kilimann, too.
The Rest of It…
Anyway, if you’re out of work, but you want to start your own hustle, hit me up.
If you have a bigger project, I know some other people who can help.
I hope you’re staying inside, safe, and healthy.
