1. Choose one specific group of people to target
It’s lovely to share holiday snaps, your grocery shop and your dad’s 60th birthday, but you need to think about your ideal follower. What does
Niche down to blow up!
2. What is your uniqueness?
What do you want to be known for? Choose one main thing to focus on, and do it slightly differently to everyone else. You don’t have to come up with something that no-one else is offering or re-invest the wheel (TOO HARD!!). Add your own voice + personality to differentiate your brand.
Some epic examples to get your creative juices flowing:
- @DepthsofBeauty
Beauty blog (+ now online magazine) focusing on natural products only to de-tox your makeup bag.
- @VanDerPop – cannabis products + education targeted specifically at women to reduce the stigma.
- @EmmaKateCo – travel blogger + stationary maker, specifically focusing on whimsical aesthetics for ‘dreamers and wanderlusters’.
3. Stay laser-focused
People need to know what to expect when they engage with your brand. For example, on my account @thefitfoodieblog, I wouldn’t post fashion advice or makeup tutorials, because I want to be known for nutritious, healthy recipes. Filter ALL your content through your content topic to avoid losing followers and position yourself as an expert.
4. Bring the value
What can you offer your audience? From experience, I now that motivation, inspiration, recipes and simple nutrition information serve my audience best. ALL my content fits into those categories. I’m giving them HELPFUL content that they can use. If they’re going to spend time looking at your content, it needs to serve a purpose.

these past weeks have been such a ride! From a trade show, to a little adventure up to Toowoomba, from my first time in beautiful Western Australia to back home to launch our 2019 planners, a whirlwind visit to China, and then this morning, waking up in Paris. I’ve captured little spontaneous moments as I best could, via stories, but now, I’m really catching a breath and can’t wait to better share more of the stories lived, and these moments in between. Starting here, in the gorgeous Margaret River with dear friends, @sceenrymag @oncewaslost.co x
