In this episode, we're going to talk about how to respond with confidence to 5 questions food bloggers get from friends and family that can upset us.
People outside our industry may struggle to understand what we do as food bloggers. It is not as evident as being a doctor or a teacher and so we might get more questions that seem ‘stupid’ when we tell people what we do. Here are some common ones and how not to let these questions get to you, but instead learn how to respond with confidence and patience.
Action Plan:
1 - "You're a what or what exactly do you do?" - Explain in simple terms what you do, so that a 13 year old can understand.
2 - “Do you make money? How do you make money? How much money do you make?" - If you’re comfortable with the question, answer again in an easy way to understand or gently change the subject.
3 - “How is your business doing?" - Respond positively and avoid getting angry over any underlying meaning.
4 - “How is your little blog doing?" - Nobody has the vision you have for your business. Do not let questions like these upset you. The only thing that matters is that you are passionate about what you do.
5 - “What do you do all day? Can you watch my kids? You must have so much time on your hands?" - Set clear boundaries and explain that you have a full-time commitment to your blog during the day. That remains your priority.
