The Secret to Turning Your Blog Into Your Dream Job
WITHOUT millions of pageviews or hundreds of thousands of followers.
Or scroll down to learn how.
You deserve a successful blog.
How many blogs have you watched "blow up" into ultra successes while you're stuck in the same "meh" place? How many times have you hoped and prayed all your hard work would finally start making you significant money so you could:
Make a living doing what you LOVE
Have MORE time with your family and friends
Get personal satisfaction and validation
Quit your day job or contribute to your family's finances
Work from home on YOUR schedule
Experience the independence of being your own boss
It all feels like an unrealistic dream, but it IS possible.
There's so much to figure out, so much to try, and so much that seems like dumb luck.
Imagine if you could start bringing in significant money every month, even thousands and thousands of dollars that rivaled any “normal” full-time job. Imagine doing this in a way that's fun and doesn't feel like work. Imagine the feelings insecurity, overwhelm, and frustration melt away. Imagine getting to spend your time doing the stuff you love instead of stressing over all the stuff you "should be" doing.
Would be great, right? It turns out there’s a membership that can help you do just that…
Here's my story
I'm Tessa, creator of Food Blog Academy.
About a year and a half ago I was at a crossroads. I had just finished culinary school and also received my bachelor's degree and it was time to enter the "real" workforce, to find a career beyond my college job. However, deep down I knew I didn't want to get sucked into an 8-5 office job I didn't really care about. I wanted to turn my blog into my dream job, to earn a full-time income while doing what I love. I had written a cookbook and was making money, but not nearly enough to qualify as "full-time." I was utterly overwhelmed, insecure, and frustrated with my blogging success so far, even after years of doing it. So what could I do??
I tried blogging 5 times a week to get more traffic to more recipes. That only led to burn out. I tried writing recipes that popular blogs were writing. That didn't work, instead my readers were turned off because I wasn't being authentic. I even tried reading blogging books, going to conferences, and buying blog courses and products. That didn't work, instead the material only covered the basics.
Then I realized I had to start treating my blog like a business, I had to become the CEO and research and implement smart business strategies and tactics. I learned A LOT about what makes a blog successful and what makes a blog pull in thousands and thousands consistently every month. I started to transform my blog into a business step-by-step, creating my dream job in the process. It took a lot of hard work but it's been an incredibly satisfying and thrilling journey.
It's been just over a year since I quit that college job and took my blog full-time. Since then I've made nearly $70K, increased my traffic by over 140%, worked with a dozen paying brands, grown my email list by over 300%, and have gotten crystal clear on my blogging business vision and goals. My blog has virtually unlimited earning potential and makes money while I sleep. I set my own hours, work from home, and spend time doing what I love while getting paid. It is a dream come true.
Do you make these blogging mistakes?
1 - Spending hours and hours focusing on all the wrong things
Does this sound familiar:
-It seems like I’m doing so much everyday and barely scratching the surface.
-It feels like I’m always playing catchup and that there are never enough hours in the day.
-I never feel truly ‘off the clock,’ there’s always something to do.
2 - Getting caught up in the comparison and jealousy cycle
Do you say to yourself:
-It always seems like everybody else knows all the secrets except me!
-I feel like I’ll never measure up and that there will always be that blogger with more followers, views, or sponsors…
-Nothing is ever as good as I want it to be.
3 - Not treating your blog like a business
Do this sound like you:
-I feel out of my league when it comes to the “behind the scenes” stuff.
-I’m always overwhelmed and confused by the business side of things… I wish I could just stay in the kitchen.
-Am I even making the most of my blog?
4 - Doing what other bloggers are doing and trying to please them
Do you say to yourself:
-I am always caught up in what everyone else is doing.
-I feel like I’m never doing what I’m “supposed to be doing.”
-Everyone around me is doing the same thing.
5 - Believing you need hundreds of thousands of followers and pageviews to have success
Does this sound familiar:
-I check my numbers obsessively.
-I always feel like my stats will never be good enough. There will always be someone with twice as much.
-I think I should put off projects for the day I finally reach that milestone. I won’t be able to do anything without #____ of pageviews, followers, etc.
The cost of these mistakes is missed opportunities for growth and success. Missing out on brand partnerships, growing your traffic and following, and ultimately making more money.
Do you find yourself thinking...
I can do it all myself and with Google.
Sure, you can do it yourself, but at what cost? You'll spend endless frustrating hours trying to figure it all out and get everything down into one solid, organized system. There's SO much information out there it's positively overwhelming, and what will actually work for you? Plus, without a guided approach and exclusive community, you have nothing ensuring you're making progress in the right direction and being held accountable, while being continuously inspired and motivated. Why not give yourself the best possible advantage?
I don't have time.
The time you spend turning your blog into a business will be some of the most rewarding - emotionally and financially - hours of your life. The modules and lessons in Food Blog Academy are all available for you to follow at your own pace, on your own time. Just a couple hours a week is enough to start making a big impact. I'll show you how to work smarter, not harder, so you never feel burnt out.
This won't work for me...
If I can do it, you can. These are proven methods that have worked not just for me, but for other successful full-time bloggers. It doesn't matter if you blog about desserts or healthy vegan meals. You don't need any special expertise, equipment, or skills. You just need to be willing to commit to transforming your blog into a lucrative business. A little hustle with the right strategy goes a LONG way. Check out the testimonials further below.
I don't want to spend more money on my blog since it's not making enough already.
For less than your daily cup of coffee, you can create a life for yourself you may have only fantasized about. The money you spend on Food Blog Academy will pay for itself, I guarantee it. If you don't see any results, you can cancel your membership at anytime and I even offer a risk-free 30 day money back guarantee because I believe in this material so much.

Before when I tried to pitch brands I would get no response. After joining Food Blog Academy I was able to turn an offer to work only for product into an $800 opportunity thanks to the scripts included in the Working with Brands module.
