Damn, I've been a member for 4.5 years with nothing to show. But that is ok! I've learned a lot through my failures and will be going at this next venture strong.

So, in all of my business I have started there was one thing I enjoyed more than anything else, and that was growing my social media presence. Social media just really clicks with me and I like looking at the numbers grow.

So I thought about starting a social media consultancy. Except, while you could make money in the long run it would just be creating another job for me. I wanted something that I could scale and eventually turn into almost passive income.

www.ivysocialmedia.com was born!

It is a blog about how to grow your social media presence. It is still in it's infancy stage right now with only 3 posts. The design could use a lot of work but I decided to just get the minimum information up so I can test interest. Previously I would spend hours on optimizing the website and making it look good only for it to be a failure.

Currently, I plan to market the website 2 ways. One being SEO (starting today). Only thing is I am a complete beginner to SEO so I will be learning everything from the ground up.

The other way is through using niche social media accounts. I currently have 3 on instagram that I started a long time ago but stopped for awhile
1. @freshentrepreneur (3681 followers): I post entrepreneur motivation
2. @exotic4cars_ (5127 followers): Post exotic cars
3. @greaterlifestyle (4119 followers): Post luxury stuff
I plan to start doing the same thing on twitter. But I currently have my hands full running these accounts on instagram.

I plan to monetize this by creating my own video course on how to use social media to grow your own business. I will create this once I have enough of an email list (500+)

I currently have 11 people on my email list.

To do:

-Optimize website for mobile since I am getting a lot of hits from mobile due to instagram
-Create an ebook to give away for email signups
-Create more content, I plan on posting twice a week
