I know there are other blog topic generators out there, but I really preferred this one over the others.
It didn’t limit me to a single week’s worth of possible titles and it was seamless in its delivery.
The ‘Google This Idea’ button is another plus.
And think of it…you don’t have to limit yourself to your side hustle topics.
Use it to come up with new product and service ideas.
If you dabble in fiction, why not enter ‘Big Bad Wolf’ and see what ideas emerge?
Bravo to writer Gabe Arnold for generating this helpful resource for side hustlers who are working on their own copywriting skills–whether emails, blogs, or other promotional content.

Take a look at the 90-second demo of the Hemingway App, a convenient online tool to sharpen your customer communications before you post them. [Yeeesh, I’m going to run that sentence through the Hemingway App and see what it says. Results below.]
Benefit: Hemingway’s feedback sends you back to your copy to at least question his judgement. Can’t go wrong!
Plus, when you’re done, you can reward yourself with a trip to Paris or Cuba and retrace some of his haunts…okay, maybe not such a good idea.
There is also a $20 desktop version.
Happy writing.
More quality content from Copyblogger and Stefanie Flaxman.
Here is the link to the one-minute video curation. The image above is also linked.
It’s meant to give you an overview of the checklist items, but I encourage you to hit that ‘pause’ button to read the entire post.
Why no audio? I’m figuring if you’re looking at this on your phone in a public setting, you may not want to mess with volume controls. And the writer’s words do just fine without my commentary.
Why not just click to the post? Absolutely, but some folks might just want the device to guide them through the content.
This post raised plenty of points to explore and clarify. I have to better understand ‘featured images’ and the ‘more’ tag.
Hope this gives you a little help as you create your own content.
This content works for folks in all stages of their side hustles, so, by all means, pass this along.

Why do I silent video curation when you could easily read the post?

Seth Godin, a real wise guy, is also a very generous guy.
His April 19, 2018 post provides a link to his Unleashing the Ideavirus . (I realize ‘virus’ is an unwelcome word since last March, but hey, let’s look at it in a different context.)
And if you’re short of time, here is a summary of the book.
Enjoy. Hope you learn a little…or a lot.
Forge ahead!

More advice from Drayton Bird.
I have seen this advice for years. (And yet, Side Hustle Curator, your posts don’t show it…)
It seems counterintuitive considering many readers’ harried pace and scattered attention.
Some of Drayton’s theories why:
Check out his proposed ‘outline for an effective long fundraising message‘: [Seems this applies to product or service sales, as well.]
Here’s the link to sign up for his emails. Pretty sure you won’t be disappointed–funny and informative stuff.
Also, consider signing up for “Drayton’s 51 free helpful marketing ideas – all proven and easy to implement.”
From Drayton: “You’ll find all of them cost nothing or very little to do.
And I’ll wager if you try just three of them, you’ll see why they are so popular.”
Note: There’s no affiliation with the site. Just wanting to share good stuff.
I love that term.
Gotta say, Drayton Bird doesn’t just know copywriting. He knows marketing. And he knows straight talk.Â
Here is a Drayton post I enjoyed recently. He teaches a few writing/marketing lessons as he hammers away at some failed email copy strategies. Fun stuff. You’ll find the term (borrowed from advertising legend David Ogilvy) ‘flatulent puffery’ inside the post.

While reading The Do’s and Don’ts of Publishing on Medium.com, I learned about themanifest.com.
You can subscribe to their how-to guides, here.
A realization: It’s entirely possible that the more resources I send you to, the less you’ll need to check in here. While I’m not trying to steer you away, hey, if the destinations help you more than this blog, then I guess ‘mission accomplished’.
Forge ahead!.
I promise I’ll keep plugging, myself.
