Goal Update!

 Hey Y'all!

Previous Goal Update:

https://outlandadventures.blogspot.com/2025/02/goal-progress-report.html

This year we'd like to grow each and every one of our social media platforms, do more, and see more of this vast country!

2025:

1) Post daily on at least one of our social media platforms. 

Tuesday's and Thursday's will remain blogs and videos. 

Saturday's will be something quick and fun, like a picture of what we're doing. Monday is fan engagement posts, and Wednesday are currently anything goes. Sunday's are a question to our followers.

These posts can be on any, or all of our social media so be sure to check us out everywhere.

This is going really well, 100%!

2) Get more active on Instagram, add Amanda as a user to that account as well. -DONE!

After 3 month of posting semi regularly and seeing no growth we've dropped Instagram from our focus.

3) Work on Work Camp Resume, finish by mid- February. Apply for jobs ASAP. (This is dependent on Amanda's treatment schedule.)

100% and job secured for the season!

4) Purchase and use VidIQ, especially to aid in thumbnail and descriptions on videos. -By end of January.

Done!

5) Revamp and update Amazon Wishlist.

Done!

6) Visit 3 new states this year!

Nothing new yet, but we know for sure 2 we'll get already. We've also explored new areas in states we've been (like KY and OH).

7) Visit 4 new State Parks in 2025.

One down!

8) Complete 52 hikes this year (at least 1mi). We're already ahead with 3!

We haven't done any in the past week and a half, but we were ahead, so we're still well on track!

9) Try something new everyday.

Easy!

10) Get the drone up at least once a month, even if it's just to practice flying it around.

Fail. We've used it none.

11) Use the "good camera" at least 2x a month, get those shots!

0, total.

12) Complete a course on Digital/Social Media. (These will be free courses, and we'll update you on our favorites!)

We're both enrolled in classes. I just finished one through EdX. It's intro to Social Media for Business, but it had some relevant information and tips. I'm currently doing a course in Online Advertising and Social Media. Chris is going through a marketing course, and a programming courses on Stack Skills.

13) Become more involved in the Van Life community both online and IRL. 

The online side will be easy to do since we are posting more often! 

Work in progress, but we are growing and engaging more online. We also have talked with more people out and about.

We've surpassed 550 followers on Facebook, and just over 110 subs on YouTube!! 

IDK what we're doing "wrong" on TikTok, it just doesn't grow. I think potentially we need to engage with others more.

14) Connect with other creators, and van life brands. Make lasting connections and build relationships!

Work in progress!! We are making connections, slowly.

15) Friday's post just came to me! Post what we're grateful for from the week. May be one thing, may be a short list of things.

We skipped a few weeks but we're back on track, we have posted everyday but I'd like to be posting more, and getting more engagement.

Thanks,

The Outlands
