a) How to Determine the Name of Your Product as a blogger

How can i determine the name of my product as a blogger? (Assuming this was your question)

Just like i refered to this tutorial at the begining as a life experience. It is going to come out of how i experienced it as a blogger since 2009.
To be sincere with you, for over a decade plus now, i never had known my product not until i might have blogged for years. In fact, sincerely speaking, my products have been determined by my experience as a blogger.

My blogging practices do finally determine the name of my products. Simply put, you will eventually define your products through your blogging experiences as time goes on.
Most times, and almost in all cases, my products do come out of my blogging topics for years.

Which means, my only secret is converting my blog topics into tangible blog products to sell to my loyal blog readers and visitors.

And from experinece, this had proven to be my best method of creating products for my customers. And it leaves no hassles when it comes to how you could be able to thinker out your products name.

That was well spoken right! But let me ask you, what if it took you many years of unending blogging before discovery your products/services through your blogging practices, will you be able to wait till those years?

No doubt about it, that is the reason why 95% of bloggers do quit before the twelfth month of their blogging career. Though, your blog content may be the determinant to some of your products/services as time goes on, it should not actually be the case.

The idea in 2020s blogging practice is to treat your blog as a business, start scaling and write less.
Create a blog with the intention of targeting wider scope within your Niche. Do not specifically Niche down exactly to avoid lacking content as time goes on.

Your blogging Niche should be broader to enable flexibility and ability to see wider areas for expansion which could make it possible for you to create products and services touching wider aspect of problems.

To determine your products/services do the following:

i) Treat your blog as a business from day one:-
(Become a middle man between products/services and the consumers. Which means; write to review products or services using affiliate links, ad, sponsored posts to guarantee monetization)

ii) Stop writing and start scaling:–

(It does not matter the fluency of your grammer, what matters is how you convey the information at hand. So, Target some products/services while writing your blog posts.)

iii) Finally at the long run, your blog contents will determine certain products/services as an added advantage to the two determinants above. But it should not be the bases of your determinant, remember, we are writing less and scaling most.

b) What is Newsletter?

I can’t quite understand what Newsletter means, please friends, what is Newsletter? (Assuming this was your question)

The name is an indication that it is something you can broadcast just like you do for information that is coming as news either from magazines or newspappers.
Now, i know your question could be, do we go about blogging about news which in actual sense is one of the difficult blogging niche to involve yourself in? Because, blog targetting news are not ever-green niches which implies that you must have to update your blog contents each and everyday in your life. Quite a difficult task to participate on.

Then, what do we mean by Newsletter?
This is a regularly distributed publication, that is normally sent via email, which contains news, updates, and other information about a particular topic or organization.

USERS OF NEWSLETTERS ARE:
— Businesses.
— Non-Profits.
— Government Agencies.
— And Individuals.
These people uses Newsletter to keep their subscribers informed about new products, services, events, or other relevant information.

DURATION OF NEWSLETTER:
— Daily Newsletter (Can be sent out on a daily bases).
— Weekly Newsletter (Can be sent out on a weekly bases).
— Monthly Newsletter (Can be sent out on a monthly bases).
— Quarterly Bases (This kind of newsletter can be sent on quarterly).
These duration depends on the frequency and volume of information being shared.

Newsletter are often used as a marketing tool to engage with customers and build relationships, but can also serve as a valuable source of information for subscribers who are interested in a particular topic.

COMMON TYPES OF NEWLETTERS ARE:
— Company Newsletters.
— Industry Newsletters.

Every experienced blogger and internet marketer will tell you that, email list is your bank account.
With this, it does not really mean that, it is your actual bank account but, it is what determines the efficiency of your bank account.
These are the subscribers who believed in whatever you give out to them in your blog and decided to subscribe in order to be a member of your community.

These subscribers were willing to give out their email account for you to be able to send them Daily, weekly, Monthly or Quarterly newsletter just like we discussed above.
Through these process you were able to accumulate enough email list from them, and these are people you can be able to sell your products to, whenever you deemed neccessary to do so.
That is the reason why they are refered to as your bank account because, these are individuals who can buy and re-buy and can equally refer their families and friends to buy from you anytime the needs be.

These email list can be accumulated by the process of having a form entrance within your website which serves as a gateway to entry into your email list.
