Episode description

We’ve been getting some great questions from listeners, so we decided to host a Content Sells Q&A session every once in a while.

Today, your hosts, Suzi Dafnis and Michelle Falzon will be answering Olga’s question about finding images for her blog and website – including our top resources for paid stock images, free and public domain images and also how to create your own images.

We also answer Karen’s question about what to do if you’re not a natural content creator and Sandra’s question about pop ups  - we’re sharing what tools to use, what makes an effective popup and what you want to avoid so you don’t annoy your visitors (we’ve all had those annoying pop ups, right!).

And we’ve got some pointers for Amanda who has struggled with creating her customer avatar.

Seeing how other people solve problems that you may also have is a great way to learn and we hope you enjoy this Q&A episode.
