I began Simple Couponing in February 2011 with the purpose of teaching others what I learned about couponing and saving money on a grocery budget. My passion is helping others save money in any possible way through couponing
I have spent quite a bit of time re-evaluating whether or not I am accomplishing my goal through this blog. There is a lot of work involved in keeping things up to date. As a mother of two, it's been getting harder and harder to manage the site and keep up on other responsibilities. I have slowly faced the fact that I don't have the time to make the site what all I want it to be.
So....I have made the tough decision to re-focus my time and energy away from blogging and more and my passion which is planning and teaching couponing classes. I would still love for you to e-mail me anytime with any questions you have about couponing and saving money. Please contact me at loricarter@simplecouponingblog.com if I can help you in any way!
Also, I am still available for classes in the Indianapolis area. Check out more details on the classes I provide here.
Thanks for your understanding and your support over the last 18 months of Simple Couponing! I feel so blessed to have had the opportunity to know you.
I wish you all the best. I understand how difficult it is to keep up with 2 kids and a blog. I have enjoyed your blog, but I know you must do what is in your heart to be 100% successful. Best Wishes and hopefully a continued friendship! Love, Couponer's Corner.
ReplyDeleteI wish you all the best, as well. Blogging is tough, it's time consuming and can be demanding. If my kids were little - I wouldn't be able to give my all to a blog either. As CC said, you do have to do what's in your heart to be successful, but also, happy. And - just because you're 'giving up' your blog - doesn't mean you can't come back to it - maybe just in a different light. Maybe you'll find ways to fill your site with long-term content and just add that for now. Write that eBook! That could be passive income for you AND you'll get your knowledge out to others the way you desire. Stop by and say hi anytime - let us know how you're doing :). Love - Finger Click Saver
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for the encouragement! I will definitely keep in touch! :)
ReplyDelete*Hug* I completely understand. Running a blog takes a lot of time, especially a coupon blog. Best wishes for your new endeavors!!! If you need anything, let me know!
