Jana O.’s Free ‘Capsule Blog’ Training

What if you could sign freelance clients on repeat… with just a small capsule library of blog posts?

There’s a smarter way to market your services with long-form content in 2025 — and it’s waaayyyy better than churning out endless posts or burning out on social media.

In this free training, content strategist Jana Osofsky teaches you her proprietary capsule blog strategy — 12–20 high-converting evergreen blog posts written to give people exactly what they need, to feel ready to hire you.

If you offer services online — and you’ve been wanting to write a blog that gives you real ROI — this is the best method we’ve seen to do it!
