Hi Siddhika, you’re a bit late but I included you on the list 🙂

I haven’t started an ad campaign with Facebook yet so I don’t have any great tips for you. Maybe I’ll have something for you next year.

Have a great 2022!

Last year, I was struggling with Shiny Object syndrome big time! There was a time when I focused on growing my Youtube channel, Instagram account, FB account and Blog all at the same time… trying to implement new and latest strategies. Thankfully I was able to slow down before it consumed me! I hope it’s not too late for me to submit my link to the Pet Bloggers Journey 2022 – https://wagabonding.com/pet-bloggers-journey-2022/
I have a question for you – You mentioned you would spend 1000$ on FB campaigns and here I was under the impression that FB is saturating as a platform. Could you share a few tips (that worked for you) on driving traffic from Facebook?

Thanks for participating! My record-keeping is not the greatest. Keeping track of all the little expenses probably add up to a big dollar amount. I need to get on top of that. Thanks for the tip. Happy 2022!

Ahhh, you made it easily. 🙂 Thanks for joining us again!

Good point on getting an accountant that understands online business. I really need to find someone for better guidance.

I do know most of the tips you mentioned but am I implementing them? Nope. I’m not the most organized person.

Thanks for the tax advice. I hope you have a great 2022!

Here’s my blog post: https://ilovemychi.com/pet-bloggers-journey-2022/

I like how you have rewards for your accomplished goals. That’s a great idea!

I have an accountant that does my taxes and my best advice is to find one that understands online businesses. The first one I had just didn’t “get it”. The one I have now has saved me a lot of money. At your first meeting, ask him about what you can claim throughout the year and take notes.

You probably know all this but also, keep a file where you can easily get to it in your desk, to throw all the receipts that are related to your business. You can sort them out monthly if you want or just wait til tax time if you need to. And keep a file in your email too for digital receipts. Keep everything that can possibly be related to your business. You can always ask your accountant about it at tax time if you aren’t sure if you can claim it.

Thanks for writing a post for both of your blogs. I’m always interested to see what’s going on with you and the dogs.

Thanks Hannah! Yes, I updated the theme around the end of last summer.

I didn’t join Income School, I only participated in the Ultimate Warrior Challenge. I’m sure there’s lots of great information in their community but right now I think it would just be another rabbit hole for me to go down. 🙂

All the best to you in 2022!

Yes, I think getting out of California is the answer. Unfortunately, it’s not an option with both mine and Ali’s family here. I have been looking for another accountant to help me save some money on taxes. And finally, yes I plan on going from a sole proprietor to an LLC this year. We must share the same brain. Thanks for the tips. It reassures me that I’m on the right track.

I’m back with my second entry for Maggie Loves Orbit. https://maggielovesorbit.com/2022-pet-bloggers-journey/

Thank you again for organizing this. Gosh the last two years seems like we were in the twilight zone but I’m ready to write a new story for my life and get back into the swing of writing and connecting with the dog community.

Thank you again.

Your new puppy is the CUTEST. I’m looking forward to those stories. I always love to hear your goals because you have such a business mindset. Learning Facebook Ads is a great goal. I am sure you will be able to do that in no time.

I also LOVE the new look on your website. Was that completed last year?

Also are you part of Income School again this year? I took the course 2 years ago but the whole 2 last years was a derailment and I just renewed my community membership.

I’m really liking the new classes they have in there this year.

Anyway thank you again for putting this together.

Here’s one of my blogs for this year’s entry: https://dailydogfoodrecipes.com/pet-bloggers-journey/

Here’s to a great 2022
