Hi Everyone

Well, it’s been a while! Thanks for following my blog in the past. It’s been dormant for quite a few years now. I had another baby (she’s now three) and life got in the way of writing. I think I lost my confidence a bit after another rocky post-natal period and I needed to take the pressure off myself.

I did miss writing and creating though. Thankfully, through various means, I’ve been writing again. 

The Story So Far…

Discovering CrossFit had a hugely positive effect on my mental and physical health and given me so much more confidence in myself. I now know that, despite turning forty in a few days, I can learn new things and also be pretty good at them sometimes!

I’m now part of the team at CrossFit Woodford, liaising with members as well as running their social media feeds. This involves a fair amount of copywriting which has been fantastic as I’ve wanted to start writing again for years. I’ve learned a phenomenal amount and have decided to merge my love of writing with my social media skills. My new website is RachelBergSocial.com and I’m blogging over there, now. As well as the blog,  I’m in the process of creating a detailed online course for small businesses.

Whilst it’s not ready for launch yet, I thought I’d let you know about it here in case you’d like more info once it’s launched properly:

If you relate to the text below (from my new site), maybe think about popping over to the new site and leaving your email address. Then you’ll be the first to know when the time comes!

“You’ve worked so hard to build your business and you’re rightfully proud of it. You know your market inside out and you’ve established who your customers are and what they want. Your products are bang-on. 

But there’s a fly in the ointment.

You’re noticing that your competitors are upping their Instagram game and it’s making you panic. You don’t want to be left behind or lose business to those who are more social media savvy than you. I mean, you know how to use Facebook and Insta for stalking exes and seeing what the Kardashians are up to, but when it comes to getting your business message out there… well, it’s just not happening.

How do you make your stories stand out?

How do you make those cool pictures with words over the top and how do use the right words to attract customers rather than just followers? What are hashtags actually for and how do you make your Instagram highlights look fancy? And what about IGTV and Video?!!

My online course will equip you with the confidence to take your Insta business account and make it a true reflection of you and your brand. You won’t need to hire anyone to manage your account for you because you will be an absolute social marketing rockstar by the end of it!”

Have you got a dream? A business idea or a skill you’ve often thought about but never had the confidence to take the first step? Head over to my new Instagram account for a healthy dose of motivation and empowerment, because If there’s one thing I’ve learned in recent years it’s that you’re never too old to learn something new. There’s absolutely no reason why you can’t achieve what you want if you’re prepared to work hard, get creative and have faith in yourself.

Exciting times ahead! I hope you’ll join me on my adventure.

Love

Rachel
