Up Your Monthly Unique Visitors
Two questions for you:
- How many unique visitors does your blog get each month?
- How long have you been blogging?
Today’s Listen is a seriously in-depth conversation with Benji Hyam, a startup marketing director who grew his blog from 0 to 35,000 monthly unique visitors in just 6 months. Benji is a big believer in doing user research to figure out what your target customers would actually be interested in reading.
Confession: This is actually a video, but you don’t need to watch it. You can easily just listen to it. So get comfortable, grab a pen, and take notes on this one.

When things change, identity can often become a problem for brands that were built around their founders. Today’s super quick video clip shows off their new look!
“Earn your leadership every day.”
