It's Not Personal, It's Business..Wait, I Mean It's Not Business It's Personal....


I've recently had some seasoned bloggers look at my "newbie" blog to get their opinion on how I could help it and what I could do to improve it and they were SO helpful! Ladies, you know who you are and thank you. But one suggestion struck me and I really didn't know where to go with it. It was suggested that I focus on my content because it is unclear if this blog is personal or business and that I should focus more on the business aspect and only bring in a few personal details. Hmmmm... I understand where she is coming from, but I have to either disagree or find a happy medium with that. I think people who are first time goers to Walt Disney World and are perhaps looking to find a travel agent to help them in the planning of their trip might have more confidence in me because my blog is on more of a personal level.

If I were your travel agent and booking you a trip to Alaska, but have never been there myself, would you feel confident in booking with me? Especially when I would have to go back and find out answers to questions that could be simple? I mean, yea, I would hopefully know more about cruising itself, especially if you were a first time cruiser. :) Most questions you can ask me about the Walt Disney World Resort I can answer on the spot. Without calling the non-toll free number, without waiting on hold, and without getting a different person each time.

So I think that at the end of the day...this blog is going to have to be personable, not necessarily personal. But you'll get a lot of "me" in my business, and I really do want everyone I book to have a fantastic vacation. So please, ask me questions, that's what I'm here for!
