Today is our three year anniversary! I shared this picture at our one year anniversary and wanted to share it today-these are some of the people who have been here since day 1! I wanted to thank everyone who has helped bring this vision to life. Many don’t know our story but Twin Cities Collective was originally started by someone else as a blogging group but when she moved out of state I reached out to become the new leader. It was small at that point and inactive and I rebranded as TCC in December of 2016. We launched the website and podcast in early 2017. In late 2018 I merged my business into TCC & it has grown to over 15k followers and 3k fb group members in 3 years!! We’ve done 25+ events and have so much more in store! Thanks again for all the support! Please keep telling your friends to join let’s keep making this community filled with awesome people! #twincitiescollective
Can’t believe summer is almost over! I’m headed to the State fair this Sunday (anyone else!? Comment below so I make sure to look out for ya!) which is usually one of my favorite but also most dreaded times because it means summer is almost done. It’s very bittersweet! But in other news today I was featured on the @andelin_app where I talked about my opinions on the state of social media, the future of Instagram and so much more. Search Legacy Matters on the podcast app to listen! 📸: @mplscraftmkt #twincitiescollective
Someone asked me yesterday about income and I just said “I don’t even know how many income streams I have-I just have a ton”. (I’m definitely not a millionaire lol) In today’s world, you can get income in many ways, including side hustling or having multiple jobs or (for me) passive income selling products online. While this quote has a bunch behind (I recommend googling it!) starting to think about how else you can start to make more money is a great first step on your entrepreneurship journey!! #twincitiescollective
I’m so excited-we don’t do giveaways often but when Amazon Studios reached out and asked me if I wanted to go to the screening of their new movie “Brittany Runs a Marathon” with a Q & A with the lead actress on August 27th, I was so excited. Then they sent over an awesome prize pack-and they said I could give away some more tickets!! Swipe to the left to watch a clip from the trailer. I love this trailer so much because I can 100% relate to the character-I trained for a 5k a few years ago and am always working on improving my fitness and her story (based on a true story) really looks super inspirational! You will win a ticket for you and a friend to come to this exclusive screening & Q&A plus win a prize pack! HOW TO ENTER THE GIVEAWAY. 1. Follow this account 2. Like this post 3. Tag a friend who you want to see the movie with! Winners announced Friday! #twincitiescollective
Community: a group of people living in the same place or having a particular characteristic in common or a feeling of fellowship with others, as a result of sharing common attitudes, interests, and goals. Both of these are the dictionary’s definition. I sat down yesterday and started writing my TedX talk audition piece which is happening the end of this month. The topic is on local community and overcoming challenges around loneliness and isolation, which I’ve heard many in this group talk about. It made me think back to why this group is so important to not just me but to all who have been part of it. This is what keeps me going-the people the feedback. Sometimes I feel like I’m too inside it and I need to take a step back and put up boundaries around my emotions which are tied directly to that. Instagram at the end of the day is just a tool-but people are people. They are living and breathing and have their own thoughts and emotions also. We need to talk about the way we treat others and how to spread the vibes we want to others. As we head into our 3 year anniversary our goal remains the same: build an inclusive community for those wanting to build a business or brand online, but connect offline. Let’s leave some kindness on the internet today k?? New online challenge launching next week-signup for our email for details!! 📸: @lauraalpizar #twincitiescollective #twincitiesbloggers
“So what is Twin Cities Collective?” This is the number one question I get, pretty much any time I meet someone with a vague knowledge of the group. It’s a hard question to answer because it’s a lot of things for a lot of people. My answer is usually: it’s a community and a resource. The community aspect involves our Facebook group and Instagram, as well as our events. The resources includes our services, our online resource guides and our workshops podcast and education. TCC is the culmination of what I wanted to exist in Minneapolis and I knew that if no one else was going to create it, it was a task I was willing to try. And the demand is obviously not just in my imagination. Without your support none of this would be here! As we hit 3 years of running TCC as it is today later this month, just wanted to say thank you for your support!! #twincitiescollective #twincitiesbloggers 📸: @angeladivinephoto
Minnesota represent! I love being from this amazing place! Many people ask me if I could replicate TCC in other cities and honestly I don’t think it could work! Our community is so full of creatives with a huge metropolis that’s actually more like a small town where you tend to run into the same people all the time at different events. We love connecting and our winters bring us together due to lack of outdoor options. What’s your favorite part about living here? 📸: @sixforgood via @baublesandbobbies #twincitiescollective #twincitiesbloggers
One of the biggest lies the world tells you is “If you build it they will come” the popular quote from the movie Field of Dreams. That is not true in 2019. With all the noise that’s happening and the more people launching their own products and services, getting your message out there is soo important and it’s something you have to keep talking about to get people to notice and to care. One of the top business books I recommend to everyone is “Building a Storybrand” by Donald Miller. I highly recommend it because he talks about if your message isn’t clear you won’t get the sale. Period. If you are struggling at all with explaining what you do and why people should buy, read this book. I struggle with it and have to constantly remind myself that people don’t know my business the way I do. I have to tell them, through visuals, stories and through other people. So in that vain I’m gonna list off a few things we have on our website you may not know about! ✅location guides: we have local guides to Coworking spaces, event spaces, photo/video studios and conference/meeting rooms ✅: business/blogger directory: add your business for just $10. ✅: free hashtag guide for local hashtags ✅: online courses for Instagram and podcasting ✅: weekly podcast with interviews with local business owners ✅: stock photography shop (all photos $10) ✅: local networking group guide ✅: blog with new posts every week ✅: events & workshops ✅: free Facebook group ✅: our services (by @jennaredfield) including brand photo and video, Squarespace web design and social media strategy coaching. I haven’t mentioned some of these in a long time so you may not have heard of them. Take a look at our website to find all of these along the menu. I hope you get a chance to read the book I mentioned but if not check out his podcast interview on the “Online Marketing Made Easy Podcast with Amy Porterfield” it completely changed my life. What’s your storybrand message!? #twincitiescollective #twincitiesbloggers
