If you are a dual career agent, you're a professional time juggler by necessity. You probably establish certain routines that work for you and increase your productivity. Being efficient at performing a task that is actually a complete waste of time isn't a win (well with the exception of that dopamine rush when you scratch that item off your To Do list).
For me, part of that routine is Tuesday is my Ask An Ambassador post day. Rain, shine, snow, at some point on Tuesday I'll find a topic to explore and knock out a post. My hope for each post is to provide some tidbit that can help others blog (an idea to explore, a tip on how I do things that might work for them, etc.). I have zero expectation these posts will bring me more business, there's nothing consumer facing about them and it's consumer facing posts that bring me business.
The gurus will tell you that there are certain days and times that are better for engagement, and that may vary by venue (LinkedIn vs. YouTube vs Instagram vs Facebook).
The reality is any day of the week and any time of the day can be a great time to blog if you are creating content with staying power (there are those evergreen posts AGAIN). No one finds a post about 55+ communities and then calendar matches the post date and goes...that was written on a Saturday, so it's not as credible as a post written on a Monday. Nope, they just want valid information that answers their search query.
There are many ways to make your blogging easier. Maybe it's a day of the week theme. Maybe it's a series of (fill in the blank) long tail home searches. Maybe it's a series of FAQs, or market reports, or holiday recipes, or...
Find what works for you. Give it time to pay off. It it doesn't, evaluate and see if you need to adjust. Repeat as necessary.
Until next Tuesday, just Ask An Ambassador if you need help,

P.S. No, we're not having tacos for dinner tonight :)
