לעורכים בלבד: טיפים לכתיבת מאמרים (שיעורים מתוך האקסלרטור לפרוייקטי צד)

היי כולם,
כמו שהבטחתי, אני מצרף פה שני שיעורים מתוך ה-Side Project Accelerator שיעזרו לכם לכתוב מאמרים בצורה יעילה יותר ומהירה יותר, וגם ילמדו אתכם את העקרונות שהנחו אותי בכתיבה לאורך השנים.
כמה דברים לפני שאתם מתחילים:

השיעורים האלו הם לעיניכם בלבד, אנא אל תעבירו אותם לאף אחד.
השיעור הראשון הוא תיאורטי מאוד, אבל קצר וקליל אז ממליץ לצפות בו
השיעור השני הוא על כתיבה ומפוצל לכמה סרטונים קצרים על מנת להקל עליכם לצרוך את כל התכנים בו.
אשמח לפידבק כמובן, אבל בעיקר לשמוע אם יש משהו לא ברור כי אני ממש רוצה שתפיקו מזה את המירב :)
תהנו!!

Key Points

Work towards the goal of having more freedom, and make your decisions based on achieving that freedom
We are going to practice audience-driven product development
With every piece of content that you put out, ask yourself, am I a giver or a taker?
Decide on a format for your content, set up your routines and get yourself out there. Being a thought leader is mandatory for your side project’s success
To be succesful in this program, work on setting expectations and on perfecting “The Switch”

Assignment

The complete assignment can be found each week in the last section of the video. The weekly assignment should be finished before next week's lesson, on Monday.

This week's assignment is to complete the following:

1. Set your routine

Decide on a set time each week that will be for you to work on the side project. It should be at least 5 hours and hopefully in one batch.
Talk to all of the important people in your life and tell them that you are working on your side project.
- Tell them that you are in this course
- Tell them what you are going to be doing for your side project and what your goals are
- Commit to doing it
- Get them on board with it, and show them that you care about it

2. Your program goals this week

The goal for this week is to have 2 things ready:

A blog or website set up where you can publish content
A MailChimp account with a mailing list that you can start having people sign up to

If you don’t have a website set up already, we use WordPress and we highly recommend it. A self-hosted WordPress is pretty easy to set up but requires some technical knowledge. If you don’t want to mess with that then you create one without coding, super easily on wordpress.com. It’s cheap and quick to set up.

If you already have a blog set up then you can get a headstart on next week by writing and publishing a blog post.

Have any questions? Hit us up on Slack!

Yours Truly,
