Male bloggers tend to write rather technical lists and describe their experience in technical terms. This article is more personal and more descriptive. Writes Sandy Abrams:
I was curious to know what the tipping point was for Audrey from blogger to Mompreneur, as I've seen her name online and in national campaigns along with Getting Gorgeous co-founder Vera Sweeney. Audrey explains that where she is today is exactly where she had dreamed of being since 2006 when she made a decision to start blogging in hopes of monetizing at some point down the road. There was no manual for this job, no rules and no boss. Audrey says: "I wasn't blogging just for the creative outlet. I wanted to create something from nothing and build a business. In 2004, we had our first son and only a couple months later, I was pregnant again. I wanted to stay home with my kids but my husband's job was not completely secure so I wanted to build something that would allow me to work from home. I was fascinated with DailyCandy.com and I wanted to find my own niche."The road taken is often interesting and starts with a lot of work for free. Makes you want to join in, doesn't it? :)
