DREAMING OF STARTING A BLOG?
Do you want to start a blog but get overwhelmed and discouraged by the technical aspects of setting up a blog?
Maybe you’ve read a few blog posts about starting a blog and it all seems like a complex jargon.
I totally get it.
In 2010 I was finishing up my bachelor’s degree in Horticulture: Floral Design with big plans to be a famous wedding florist.
I knew that I needed to be online for potential clients to find me. I wanted a website and I wanted to blog about all things wedding.
I signed up for a CSS and HTML class an intended on building my own site. I went to the first class and sat through it like a deer in headlights.
I just wanted a blog! I did not sign up to learn a foreign language.
It was confusing, complex, and intimidating.
I dropped out.
Never in a million years would I have thought I could go from being a wedding florist to a WordPress guru and blog coach!
I taught myself how to use WordPress and be techy and now I want to help you:
If I can do it, so can you!
"Kristie’s course is the main reason I can call myself a blogger today. I had been dragging my feet for some time and finally decided to give it a go.
The only problem was…I knew nothing about setting up a blog! Start and Shine is broken down into stop and go segments and is so very easy to follow.
Beyond her perfectly crafted course, Kristie is a wildly attentive resource if you have any questions and has given me the tools to grow.
If you’re ready to build your blog…Start & Shine is the way to go!"

LAUNCH WITH READERS AND FANS!
After you become a Rockstar at WordPress – we’ll tackle pre-launching your blog because blogging for no one is no fun!
One of the most depressing things for a new, excited blogger is to start publishing posts and nobody is there to read them.
Talk about a high to low.
It can leave you feeling like “I HAVE ALL THIS GREAT INFORMATION AND I PUT ALL THAT WORK INTO PUBLISHING IT AND THERE IS NOBODY TO READ IT!”
Then follows the thoughts: is this worth it? Am I not up to snuff? Am I doing something wrong?
That won’t happen to you!

HI! I'M KRISTIE
I created this course because I have watched so many people attempt to start blogging and quickly become discouraged. They get frustrated with the technical aspects of blogging and a lot of times don't know what to do next. Or, they are sad that nobody is reading their posts.
I don’t want that to happen to you!
Over the past few years I have worked with hundreds of bloggers getting started online.
In the process I’ve learned a lot about what it takes to get started, the pitfalls new bloggers encounter and how to gain momentum.
Let's launch that dream blog of yours!
I can't wait to see you inside the course and Facebook community.
