#7 Whimsical Holiday: 2015 Goals Review

Welcome to the seventh post of the Createyou86 Whimsical Holiday Blog Series. 
We do not normally post blog series posts on Tuesday's so let me preface this post with saying that on December 10th i started a new job, and have been working pretty much non-stop.  I haven't even had enough time to do my own Christmas shopping.  Needless to say time has not been on my side when trying to release new content including these posts, and for that you have my sincere apology.

I wanted to take this time to talk about our goals that we had as bloggers for 2015.   

☆We wanted to have more visitors to our blog.  We are still a very small blog, and it depends on the post, and the day of the week, but we have definitely  seen growth in readers here at Createyou86, and we think you are all great!

☆ We wanted to create a FREE mastermind group which we succeeded at.  Feel free to join at Createyou86 Planning & Blogging Mastermind Group .

☆ We wanted to have greater social media, and brand  awareness.  We greatly exceeded our expectations with Instagram, Pinterest, Twitter, and YouTube.

☆We wanted to try new social media platforms.  One of our favorite things to do is try new things.  We really enjoyed learning all about Periscope, and trying it out this year (@Createyou86).

☆ We wanted to create a FREE Facebook group for bloggers specifically in the Northeastern U.S.  We have created a home for bloggers to share their wins, questions, praises, and frustrations.  Feel free to join at Northeast Bloggers Connect . We would eventually like to have blogger meet ups up, and down the East Coast.

☆We wanted to provide our readers with a ton of great product reviews.  We had so much fun testing, and reviewing new products for our readers this year.  We have Influenster, Brandbacker, and a bunch of other great independent companies to thank for those opportunities.  We look forward to more in 2016.

We have exceeded our own expectation this year, and we look forward to upping our game in 2016 for all of you. 

What would you look forward to seeing from the Createyou86 Blog in 2016?
