Imagine if you could lay out a visual roadmap that would streamline your brainstorming, research and writing so you can create more concise, compelling and consistent content.
Don’t just open a new document or note and start spewing your thoughts into it, then try to coax it into a story that makes sense.
There’s a better way.
No more
Picture this instead
You struggle to come up with compelling content ideas that captivate your ideal reader.
Creative mind map templates that help you generate more divergent, creative and amazing writing ideas.
Your research tends to be unfocused, which wastes hours of precious time and leaves you with a folder full of notes and ideas that are challenging to organize and make sense of.
A simple process to help you clarify the focus of your writing, so you can research your topic more efficiently and keep the information you’ve gathered better organized
You’ve fallen into the bad habit that many writers do: writing for an audience of “everyone,” which means appealing to no one.
A persona mind map template that will help you clearly identify your ideal readers and understand their challenges, motivations and aspirations – so you can laser focus your writing on them.
You hope to write something that will go viral, but very few people are paying attention to your writing.
With a clear, compelling audience persona at your side, you’ll be able to identify their challenges, motivations and aspirations – increasing the odds that your writing will connect with them at a deep level. The result? More likes, shares, follows and (if you’re selling something) sales.
You write without an outline because you don’t want your creativity to be constrained. But that slows down your writing process and results in finished pieces that aren’t as clear and compelling as you’d like.
With a well-designed visual outline, it will be easy for you to see these weak points in your thinking so you can solve them before you start to write. The result? You’ll be able to write better, more compelling content – faster!
You’ve captured dozens, even hundreds of notes in your personal knowledgebase – but it’s really hard to transforming all that knowledge and expertise into pieces of content.
You’ll be able to use mind maps to not only organize your thinking into crystal-clear visual outlines that give you complete clarity about what to write.

Most writers are stuck
They know they need to be writing on a regular basis. But they struggle to transform their knowledge and experiences into engaging content. The blank page stares at them and they feel like their creative muse has flown away.
There’s a different kind of “stuck” that also affects a large number of writers. They publish on platforms like SubStack, Medium.com and LinkedIn but just never get much engagement. They don’t know why. They just know it’s incredibly frustrating – and it causes many of them to give up.
What they need are better, more unique ideas. If they just recycle the same old ideas as other authors, chances are that their writing will be ignored.
