Mini Blog Ahead Challenge for June 2017

Posted on by

Mini Blog Ahead #2

 
Our second Mini Blog Ahead is now open for Sign Ups!
This challenge is all about getting ahead in your blogging by upping your number of scheduled posts by 15 during the challenge.
This is great prep for vacations, emergencies, and just helping get through blogging slumps or busy weeks. Having posts ready to go so you don’t have to worry about them can be a huge relief!
 

Dates: June 15- June 30th

Goal: Schedule an additional 15 posts during the challenge.

On Day 1 of the challenge take your number of scheduled posts and add 15 to that. This is the number you need to have at the end of the challenge.

 Current Status:  I have 4 posts.
I met my minimum goal. I had 4 + 15 new ones = 19. I feel it is pretty weak, but summertime is fun time here at FUNdinmental.
 
I love doing these challenges. It motivates me to get ahead for those times I can’t or don’t feel like blogging. How about you?
