Quick question for you.

What do you do when your audience ignores your content?

I know, it’s tough.

You spend hours brainstorming your next blog’s topic.

Then, you sit down for an extra day or two to write it.

You polish it until it shines.

Finally, you hold your breath and click “publish” on what you consider one of the best pieces of content you’ve ever written.

You wait.

A minute passes. An hour. A week. A month.

Nothing happens.

Your audience is ignoring you.

And that’s not the worst of it.

Because each week, you repeat the whole process.

Brainstorm. Write. Publish. Scratch your head when no one seems to care about your content.

When will this end?

Is there a way you can consistently and confidently publish content you’re 100% sure your audience will adore?

(Hint: there is.)

The Secret Behind Why Your Content Is Getting Ignored

(It’s Probably Not What You Expect)


Ok, if you’re doubting that you were “meant to be a writer”…

…it’s time to stop.

The truth is, I don’t believe anyone was born to be a writer.

In fact, no one was “born to be” anything.

We discover what we love to do and build the skills that allow us to do it better.

Sounds unromantic, but it’s 100% true.

The same is true with writing.

Anyone can work to become a superb writer.

So if you’ve honed and polished your skills for some time, and your audience is still ignoring you…

…it probably isn’t because you suck at writing.

 It’s because they’re not interested in what you’re saying.

Let it sink in, and it’ll make sense.

  • People don’t go online to read, they go online to solve a problem.
  • Reading is a necessary evil your audience goes through to get what they want.
  • If you don’t give them what they need, they’ll leave, no matter how awesome your writing skills are.

Make sense?

I mean, you wouldn’t read a 3,000-word piece on square-shaped onions if you don’t care what shape your onions are, right?

It doesn’t matter how well-written the content is.

Ok, let’s get this straight once and for all.

If your audience is ignoring your content, it’s not because you weren’t born to be a writer.

It’s simply because you’re not writing about the stuff they’re interested in.

Period.

Want to Dive into Your Audience’s Brain and Discover the Topics They’ll Adore?


I know, it sounds like the stuff of fairytales.

Imagine if you could do it.

Pick your audience’s brain to find out exactly what kind of content they want to consume at the moment.

I say “at the moment” because your audience is continuously changing.

They’ll love a topic one month, then completely abandon it the next.

What if you could always stay ahead and know what to publish to get instant engagement, shares, and hot leads?

The amazing news: there is a way to do this.

There is a way to:

  • Know what topics your audience is consuming right now
  • Get a constant stream of topic ideas they’ll love
  • Never wake up in the morning panicking, with no idea what you’ll write and publish next

So, are you ready?

Ready to go from having zero idea why your audience is ignoring your content…

…to waking up every morning feeling confident they’ll love everything you publish?

If you’re shouting “YES,” you’ve come to the right place.

Hi! I’m Julia McCoy, and I’ve Been Writing Hot Content for Over a Decade


I’ll be honest with you.

There’s a ton of techniques you can use to brainstorm content topics.

You can take the long route and experiment with every one of them until you find what works for you.

But if you want to take the shortcut, you can learn a powerful, proven-and-tested strategy from me.

Can you trust me to guide you in the right direction?

YES.

That’s because I’ve been crafting hot content for over a decade.

And the truth is, it didn’t always go well.

There was a time when I was like you: lost, confused, burnt out, publishing content my audience didn’t care for.

I didn’t stay that way forever, though.

I learned everything I could about content that works. I experimented with different techniques. I tried and failed countless times.

Finally, I landed on a strategy that worked. I built my formula and secret sauce for never running out of rave-worthy, shareable topics my audience loves.

Now, I’m not telling you this to brag.

I’m telling you to let you know that if your audience is ignoring your content right now…

…that’s totally OK.

We all start somewhere.

And with my one-hour workshop, How to Find Hot Topics with BuzzSumo, I’ll give you the formula I’ve perfected over years of writing hot content…

…so you can skip the guesswork and start crafting your own crave-worthy pieces today.
