The Restaurant Analogy for #ship30for30 writers (a thread):
Decide now what your *primary* goal is for this @ship30for30 cohort.
This will determine whether you're a Cook or a Restauranteur. 👩🏻🍳
Just as most people only eat 3 main meals a day, we have limited capacity for consuming content.
Get specific about what you're cooking up and who it's for, if you want engagement on your #ship30for30 creations.
Think like a Restauranteur, not just a Cook. 💡👨🍳 🍽
Addendum: Actually, think like a Cook 👩🍳 AND a Restaurant Owner 🍽
In #ship30for30 you’re likely working on your craft and techniques AND looking for feedback and data.
(Keep #writing!)
I'm taking part in #ship30for30 again! Turns out community, accountability and structure are good for #writing ✏️
My goals:
▫️ Publish min 3x a wk, either here @charclam on creativity and biz or at @GriefGritGrace on #Grief
▫️ Practice Twitter threads
▫️ Publish on Medium
I built an online gallery wall for The Grief Gallery @GriefGritGrace
Visitors can view the belongings of loved ones lost, and also share their stories thegriefgallery.softr.app

Support for importance of effective communication in public health at @WebSummit from epidemiologist @Dorry_Segev:
“We need to spend more time listening to health behavior campaigns that have worked.”
Yes for competence + communications!

I’m learning JavaScript with @shecodesio this week.
I have so much more awareness and appreciation for all the punctuation on our keyboards.
Especially the curly brackets {}
Don’t think I’ve ever used those before! 😀

Last week, I started learning HTML + CSS. Again.
I first learned HTML in 1999. CSS was still in its infancy, relatively.
The Internet has changed dramatically since then. So, I'm adapting. Learning to code with @shecodesio - let's see where this goes! 🤓

A thought exercise for #entrepreneurs: If your business was a restaurant, what kind of restaurant would it be? 🍽
Your answer informs how you market and promote what you do, as well as the buying behavior of your customers.

Afraid to show yr work in progress?
Consider: Bread doesn't look like bread until late in its creation. First it's loose flour, then crumbly dough, then a gooey mess.
Our work may currently look like dough, that's OK! All part of the process 🍞

Not a metaphor, nor an analogy. Maybe a poem, or lines from a very short play about #grief over on my @griefgritgrace account 💖

The premise of the Ship30 #writing course by @dickiebush @nicolascole77 is all about practicing in public. NOT common for perfectionists, but it is for the productive.

The customer journey for small businesses often includes these 3 steps: Find, Follow, Follow-Up.
Here’s more about each step of the framework (see thread 🧵)

2. Follow - Now that they’ve found you, how do they follow you to go deeper on the customer journey?
If you’re selling a high-end product, they may not be ready to buy right away. How do you keep in touch?
Is there a mailing list they join, a podcast or social media to follow?
