“It’s not about reaching the mass market, it’s about a small group of people that want to follow you” Bjork Ostrom on building a community

My guest today is Bjork Ostrom, creator of Food Blogger Pro (which he created while spending a year volunteering in the Phillipines – what!?), and which has helped hundred of food bloggers grow and monetize their food blogs. Bjork, along with his wife Lindsay, are the rare husband and wife team behind the popular and highly profitable food blog, Pinch of Yum. I met bjork a couple years back in Minnesota and he has been a great resource for books, business advice, and tech details. Plus he is an all around genuine and caring fellow. I’m sure you are going to learn a lot from this episode, especially if you like food or have an online business!

“Adventure is a long term story of progress, positivity, relationships and small decisions towards doing things that are uncomfortable” – Bjork Ostrom
