It's sooo HOT over here right now

Hi Reader,

I flew from Dublin to Seville, Spain, this past weekend for a Spring marathon.

I spent four months training for the race.

I flew over a day or two early and took a day off afterward to recover.

It was a hot race… I drank about three liters of water to recover.

Seville isn’t the only hot place right now.

Beforehand, I scheduled a week’s worth of posts for LinkedIn.

I’m not looking for a new job.

I’m still working on my online writing business full-time.

But…

LinkedIn is hot for more creators and writers.

The reach and engagement over there are great right now.

In fact:

Try it if you’re writing online and want to connect with people in your niche.

Now…

I find returning to a writing routine hard after a few days off.

And that’s before factoring in tiredness after a marathon.

So, before I got on the plane…

I scheduled my posts a few days in advance.

Scheduling gives me a small window to write some new posts and articles.

I tried scheduling content out for a few weeks, but I like using analytics to edit content based on what’s working.

I also keep a content library of posts, articles, and other projects.

I can open up this library and jump in.

On the plane home, I spent an hour reviewing my notes in my content library.

I picked out a few ideas to expand into posts and articles.

That’s a lot to keep track of.

So, I built a system inside of Notion to manage my writing projects.

It’s easy to use and saves me hours each week.

Although I’m currently focused on LinkedIn, it works for any network, blog, or online writing project.

Medium, Substack, X, YouTube… you name it.

I recorded a short video course that shows how to set it up for your writing projects.

If you’re interested, here are the complete details of the offer (closes tomorrow).
