As a blogger myself since 2010, I've come to learn how to keep everything I do very organized & easily accessible. One of my go-to blog & business tools has been, and will continue to be, Google Drive.

Most bloggers don't realize the functionality of Google Drive and how much it can benefit their blog or business. In this course, you'll get a behind-the-scenes look at how you can use Google Docs, Slides & Sheets for your own blog.

This course is broken down into 4 video lessons:

  • Lesson 1 is an Intro to Google Drive. You'll get a quick overview of the platform, learn how to access it easily, and how to organize it with files & folders.
  • Lesson 2 dives into Google Docs. I'll show you how to use the editing tools available to help you create gorgeous documents you can then turn into PDFs to share with your blog readers or clients.
  • Lesson 3 is all about Google Slides. If you are hosting a webinar or speaking engagement, custom Slides help you appear more professional and provide a visual aid to your listeners.
  • Lesson 4 wraps up with the meatiest of them all - Google Sheets. I'm a spreadsheet nerd but understand the fear that spreadsheets and formulas cause in many bloggers. You'll learn how to format Sheets and create your own comprehensive editorial calendar.

I was blown away that Kirsten offered this course for free! I've dabbled with Google Drive applications, but now I'm ready to dive in deeper. The in-depth example of how to create a blog editorial calendar was especially helpful. It really seems like Google Drive is a one-stop shop for all things blog-related. Thanks Kirsten for putting together this awesome tutorial!

Kirsten walks you through step by step how to use the different functions of Google Drive. I liked all the real life examples she used, especially in the Google sheets, so I could see how to use it. This class helped me organize my pictures and create a spreadsheet to keep track of my blog posts, link parties, social media, and finances. I would highly recommend it!

A very handy introduction to Google Drive. Just recently launched my blog and one of my struggles is trying to create an editorial calendar. Moreover, I'm happy that I don't have to create new google sheet for each topic, it's better to have them on all one sheet and just keep adding tabs. Also it's easier to track. Thanks

I'm not a blogger per se but I am a small business owner and I found this overview of Google Drive to be very helpful. The examples you show can be applied to any business. I learned several new tips that I can start using right away, especially with Google Sheets. (B-bye Excel!) Also your course is well planned and the videos and explanations are easy to follow. Thank you! :)

I totally recommend this course because it was focused on the practical application of Google Docs, rather than the theoretical uses, which tend to put me to sleep! I especially recommend the final chapter on Sheets. Thank you for your attempt to organize me! Let's see if it works! :)

A friend shared this opportunity with me and I am so glad she did. The old saying, "You can't see the forest for the trees", certainly came to mind while following along in this course. I have use bits and pieces of google docs, but not really realized the potential it had in helping me with my blog and social media outlets. Thank you Kristen!
