#how to build an email list from scratch

[illbearound]

MOST WANTED MAN

Hiiii! First of all, I want to thank you for all the love I’ve been receiving. I wasn’t expecting that at all. Everyone is so sweet!! So thank you, thank you, thank you! 🥺💜

Second, I’m still trying to figure out tumblr posting (I’m new at this , so I’m still learning how to navigating here). I've noticed that there's a character limit, so I might have to split some chapters and make the story a bit longer than I expected. So please, bear with me.

I have the story almost written (working on the last chapters, atm). And I still got a few things I want to revise first – grammar and punctuation stuff. Still, I have not figure it out yet when I will update it. I was thinking about do it every other three days but maybe that’s a bit much. Maybe I’ll do an upload on a specific day of the week. Or just post whenever. Idk I haven’t set that up.

At last, here it is the first chapter! I hope you enjoy it. Please let me know your feedback!!! (only if you want to, a heart is also very good!! ) 💕🫶🏻 Happy weekend!

Chapter One — Oranges and Familiar Faces

Madrid , February 2025

The city looks like a painting when she arrives. Terracotta rooftops glowing beneath low clouds, windows shuttered against a late winter drizzle. Rain taps softly on the car roof. The driver doesn’t speak, only nods when she thanks him. The hotel is made of pale stone and glass. Modern, but trying not to look it.

In the elevator, she watches the numbers change and feels the quiet stretch of panic that’s been building all week. She presses her hand against her stomach without thinking. She doesn’t want to admit she feels sick.

The room is fine. Clean, anonymous. The bed is made with perfect corners. A tiny desk under a high window. She doesn’t unpack, just lifts the most decent clothes from her suitcase and lays them over the chair. The rest stays in the case like a secret. Her phone buzzes but she doesn’t check it.

She opens the window instead. The air is damp, tinged with exhaust and oranges and something floral she can’t name. Somewhere down the street, music plays — fast, percussive, joyfully unaware of her.

She takes a deep breath. Her throat tightens.

It’s only a work trip.

She reminds herself of that like a mantra, like it’s supposed to mean something.

*

She had received the email last Saturday morning. She was on the couch in her sweatshirt, curled around a cup of tea that had gone cold. Outside her apartment, Paris went on living. Footsteps on pavement, a motorbike, the clink of glass from the bakery downstairs. Inside, everything had gone still.

Subject: Madrid Expansion — Selected Staff for Team Integration & Travel Itinerary

At first she thought it was a mistake. Or a bulk email. She read it twice. Her name was there, in the list. One week in Madrid. A full week.

She didn’t move. Not at first. The room felt like it had narrowed in around her.

The kettle began to scream in the kitchen. She stood too quickly, banged her hip against the table. Her hands trembled slightly as she turned off the stove. The tea didn’t matter anymore.

Julie appeared in the doorway, yawning, her hair in a sideways ponytail like a comic strip character.

“You’re up early.” she said, scratching her elbow.

Anna blinked at her, still holding the dry teabag.

“I have to go to Madrid,” she said “for work.”

Julie tilted her head. “Like… Madrid Madrid?”

Anna nodded.

For a second, neither of them said anything.

Julie crossed the kitchen, leaned against the fridge. “And how do you feel about that?”

Anna shrugged. “It’s just work.”

“That’s not what I asked.”

Anna sighed, looked down at the counter like it might give her the answer. “I don’t know.” she said finally. “There’s the chance I see him. Or the chance I don’t. And I honestly don’t know which is worse.”

Julie didn’t try to fix it. She just stood there, steady.

“You’ll handle it,” she said. “You always do.”

Anna didn’t believe that, but she didn’t argue either.

They’d met in university, at a party Anna had tried to sneak out of before she was even halfway through her drink. Julie had caught her on the stairs and pulled her back in with a laugh and a brash, charming “no way are you bailing on me, I just got here.”

Julie was the kind of person who filled rooms without trying. People leaned into her, wanted to be close to her. She was funny and bright and fast. And not in a showy way, but with a sort of effortless gravity. She was studying art history and was always covered in paint or glitter or bits of tape, like her life was made in collage. She told stories with her hands. She loved hard and forgave quickly. Anna had never met anyone like her.

They moved in together that spring and never really stopped. Even now, years later, they shared a flat in the 11th, though Julie would be leaving soon. She was engaged now, to Guillaume, her long time boyfriend. Steady, gentle, impossibly French but a really nice guy. Anna didn’t say it out loud, but the idea of Julie leaving scared her more than she expected.

So she listened to her.

At the airport, Julie texted her:

Julie: You should text him. Just let him know you’ll be in town.

Anna: Isn’t that weird?

Julie: He’d want to see you. But it’s your call. Just don’t overthink it. You’ve got this.

Anna didn’t text him. She opened the window in the hotel and watched the city instead.

*

Madrid is warmer than Paris, but not by much. The days start gray and end with a wash of gold on balconies. On the first afternoon, Camille, her coworkers, takes her to lunch in a narrow restaurant where the waiters speak happily. They sit at a corner table with red napkins folded like fans.

Camille orders wine. Anna asks for something lighter, an orange juice.

Camille raises an eyebrow but doesn’t comment.

They talk about work. Or Camille does, mostly. She’s effortlessly polished, with that subtle Parisian way of seeming completely disinterested while knowing exactly what’s happening. She’s in her forties, with a calm kind of authority. Red lipstick. Clean suits. Long earrings. No apologies. She isn’t quite a friend, but she is the kind of woman Anna quietly admired. Camille had the composed confidence of someone who'd long stopped worrying about being liked. They'd fallen into a quiet sort of companionship since Anna had started working in the office; a lunch here and there, an occasional walk to the metro when they finished late. Camille talked more than Anna, but it never felt like noise. She was curious, clever, a little cynical. The kind of person who asked how your weekend was, then actually listened.

“I almost married a chef once,” she says between bites of roasted fish. “He wrote poems on receipts and smoked in the shower.”

Anna laughs. Not because it’s funny, exactly, but because Camille says it like it’s the most natural thing in the world.

Anna smiles faintly "I thought Spain would be sunnier." she admits

"Spain is sunnier. February just doesn't care."

The week moves in blinks. Meetings. Introductions. Office tours.

The Madrid office space was slick and modern, all clean lines and filtered light. But the people were the opposite — tactile, warm, constantly offering coffee, food, compliments, stories. Anna spends most of her time trying to match their energy, knowing she never quite does. Camille thrives, even with her broken Spanish and ironic tone. She knows when to push and when to vanish. She doesn’t push Anna, but always found ways to include her gently, effortlessly. Anna smiled when she needed to, contributed when she could, and disappeared into herself whenever possible.

She walks through the city at dusk, letting herself get a little lost. The buildings look sun-worn and sturdy. There are oranges on the trees. The light feels closer than it does in Paris.

She doesn’t text him. But she thinks about it every night.

It’s Friday night. The restaurant is loud, full of weekend buzz and cheap wine and too much cologne. Her small group from work had planned dinner. A chance to relax, to laugh and to celebrate the successful week they had. They've got the weekend off before returning to Paris, and this feels like the perfect start, a night out in the last stretch of their time in Madrid.

Outside, the rain has quieted to a mist, fine and invisible until it catches the light. The street is narrow and damp, cobblestones slick with reflection. A row of motorbikes leans against a wall across the way, their seats glistening. A neon sign from a corner bar buzzes quietly in the distance, humming its way into the silence between them.

Anna tucks her arms across her chest, bottle of water cold in her hand, she’s too tired to drink tonight . Camille lights a cigarette, shielding the flame from the wind, the tip flaring orange before settling into a steady glow. Smoke curls up around her, mingling with the city air — exhaust, wet pavement, something faintly floral.

They don’t speak for a few moments. There's a comfort in the quiet, in the shared act of being slightly apart from the noise, of pausing without obligation. Camille offers her a cigarette.

Anna shakes her head. “I’d just embarrass myself.”

Camille smiles faintly. “We’ve all done worse.”

Then Camille exhales and glances sideways. She smokes with a casual grace of someone who's been doing it since the '90s. “You’ve been a little strange this week,” she says. “Quieter than usual.”

Anna shrugs, watching a raindrop slide off the edge of a streetlamp. “I’m always quiet.”

Camille gives her a dry look. “You’re not always like this.”

There’s no malice in it. Just observation, casually dropped into the night like a coin into a fountain.

Anna’s eyes flick toward the building across the street. There's nothing remarkable about it, shuttered windows, a closed florist, some dark shapes that might be tables inside a café. But one door glows faintly, a soft amber rectangle in the dim. Seems like one of those expensive restaurants with ridiculous menus.

“I’m fine.” she says eventually, because it’s easier than untangling anything real.

Camille takes another drag. “You've been here before?"

It is an innocent question; light, casual, nothing loaded. But it catches her off guard. Because even though Camille doesn't know the history, the question lands heavy. Like it grazes something buried.

Anna doesn’t answer right away. Instead, she looks up again at the sky, pale and blank. Then down the street, where taillights smear across the wet stone. The city feels suspended, like it’s holding its breath with her.

“No.” she says finally. “But it's... familiar. In a way.".

Camille studies her. "Love thing?"

Anna's smile holds no humor. "Isn't it always?"

Camille doesn't press. Just nods, a small, almost imperceptible gesture. “We should get drunk.” she says lightly, as if to break the tension.

Anna huffs a small laugh. “Probably.”

And then, just as she begins to turn back toward the door, her foot lifting slightly from the ground, the door across the street opens.

It’s subtle at first, just a creak of movement. Her eyes catch it out of habit, not expectation. She’s not looking for anything. Not anymore.

But then, like a slow, deliberate reveal, he steps into the light.

Her body stills before her mind does. Her breath cuts short, like she’s suddenly underwater.

Kylian.

He’s there. Real. Present. Not memory or fantasy. Not the version she’s rewritten in her head a hundred times. He walks into the faint orange glow of the doorway with that same easy posture, the way he adjusts his sleeve with one hand like he's done it a thousand times. The rhythm of his movements unchanged. Unthinking.

For a split second, she doesn’t feel anything. No rush of emotion. Just a hollow quietness, like the air has been sucked out of her.

Then it floods in — the weight of the months, the questions left hanging, the sudden, cruel sharpness of the present.

Beside him, Étienne appears. The bodyguard, the driver, the trusted shadow; tall, composed, still somehow blending into the background. Just as he used to. He speaks to Kylian in a low voice, then scans the street, that same soft vigilance in his eyes, as though checking for exits no one else sees. She remembers the way he used to play French rap music from the stereo, tapping his finger lightly on the wheel. She hadn't thought of Étienne in months, and yet, there he was too. Like a ghost from the past.

And then, as if pulled by something unseen, Kylian lifts his head.

His eyes land on her.

Not around her. Not through her. On her.

The recognition is immediate. No delay. No question. Like he was expecting her all along, or maybe hoping not to.

For a second, neither of them moves. The city carries on around them. A horn in the distance, the rush of tires over wet stone, but here, in this stretch of air between them, time narrows to a point.

Kylian’s face doesn’t change much, but something in it softens. He says something to Étienne, too quiet to hear, and then takes a step forward.

Then another.

He begins to cross the street.

Anna doesn’t move. Her fingers tighten slightly around the bottle in her hand, but she doesn’t step back. Doesn’t breathe. She watches him approach, each step sounding louder in her ears than it should.

He isn’t rushing. There’s a carefulness to the way he moves, like he’s not sure if this is allowed. Like one wrong word could send the whole thing toppling.

Beside her, Camille straightens a little, glancing between them. “Is that–?” she begins, her voice low “Do you know him?”

Anna doesn’t look at her. “Kind of.” she murmurs.

Camille nods, sensing something in the stillness, in Anna’s posture. “I’ll give you a minute.” she says, already stepping toward the door, flicking her cigarette to the gutter without looking back.

And then he’s there.

Not close enough to touch, but close enough to speak. His presence feels too large all of a sudden. Too familiar. He smells like the same cologne. Wears the same kind of coat. And his expression, that small, half-smile, eyes flicking quickly to hers, it all crashes into her like a memory she's still grieving.

“Hi.” he says, quiet.

“Hey.” she answers, almost as softly.

The word feels simple, but her throat tightens around it. He looks at her like he’s still trying to understand the fact of her.

He blinks, then glances around, like trying to place this version of her in this particular streetlight. “What are you...?” he starts, then trails off. “I didn’t know–”

“I’m here for work,” she says quickly, the words sharper than she intends, too rehearsed. “They’re expanding. I came for the launch. Just a few days.”

She hears herself. The precision of it, how careful she sounds. Not casual, not surprised. Just... neutral. She doesn’t know why she phrases it like that. Maybe part of her doesn’t want to give him the wrong impression; doesn’t want him to think she came here because of him, for him. That would feel too exposed. Too much like something she used to do.

But underneath it, there's a flicker of something raw, a quieter truth pressing up against her ribs. That maybe she’d hoped for this. That maybe part of her had scanned every room for this moment, just like this, without letting herself admit it.

She watches his face, waiting for some reaction, a shift in his expression, some small sign of what he’s thinking. But he just nods, slow, like he’s absorbing it. And she can feel it all beginning to catch up to her now, the sudden nearness of him, the old ache unfolding in her chest like a bruise returning.

Kylian nods, then shifts slightly, tucking his hands into his coat pockets. That same half-smile plays at his mouth — crooked, a little unsure, like he's trying to land somewhere between familiarity and caution.

“Still drinking water at social things, huh?”

It’s such a simple thing. Barely even a real comment. The kind of line people toss out when they don’t know what else to say.

But it hits her like an echo from another life.

He remembered. The first time they met.

She glances down at the bottle like it’s just appeared there, like it’s someone else’s. And then the smallest smile pulls at her mouth, not quite amused. More like caught.

“I guess some things don’t change.” she says.

But they both know a lot of things did.

You Broke Me First

part 32

how the hell do I have 32 parts of this thing already

xx

Zoe stretched out in the king sized bed, reaching out for her phone to shut off the alarm.

She had ever intention of going into the office today. However, since she was at Cillian's, it was adding an extra 15-20 minutes on to her commute, as well as having to feed Scout and let him out before she left.

Before she could even consider hitting the snooze button, she heard Scout scratching at the door. She dragged the comforter off and got out of bed, unwillingly. She opened the door and was greeted by Scout, sitting patiently at the door with his tail wagging. The second she took a step forward, he leaped towards the stairs and raced down them, making a mad dash for the kitchen.

"okay, okay," Zoe said, following him through the kitchen and to the back french doors that opened up to the large, fenced-in back yard. She opened the door and Scout ran out, sniffing the grass immediately, looking for the perfect spot to go to the bathroom.

It was still early, and the sun had just come up. It was Zoe's favorite time of the day, when the day was still so new and perfect, the birds were starting to softly chirp, the sun wasn't too hot. The calm before the storm, the serenity before the chaos.

The home came with a deck, perfect for outdoor seating and a fire pit. However, Cillian hasn't purchased one yet. Zoe couldn't wait to have her morning coffee out there, and maybe build a fire and roast marshmallows there on chilly nights with Cillian.

Zoe retreated back into the kitchen and made herself a cup of coffee. She opened up the cabinet she designated for Scout's food, and took out a scooper and filled his bowl for his breakfast and gave him some fresh water. Scout was already at the door, whining to come in. Zoe let him in and he went straight for his food, ready for breakfast.

Okay, going to eat something quick, let Scout out after he eats, then go upstairs and shower quick and change, make it to the office and pray the traffic gods are on my side so I can have a spare 5 minutes to stop for more coffee, Zoe thought, mentally going through her to do list for the morning.

Zoe looked at her laptop sitting on the counter. Checking my emails couldn't hurt, she thought. She took a seat, opened up her laptop and logged in.

the first email was from her sister, which wasn't unusual, but the subject line was what caught her eye.

"WTF is this shit," Zoe read the subject line out loud, as she clicked open.

In the body of the email was a link to a Daily Mail article, and it made her stomach drop.

Party like a Shelby! Cillian Murphy Spends Time With New Lady as Peaky Blinders Cast Grabs Dinner and Drinks

Zoe read it 7 times, as if it was going to change in front of her eyes.

He told me he was working late. He was at dinner? Why couldn't he just say he was at dinner?

Zoe scrolled down, and saw photos of the cast, and in the background was Cillian and a tall blonde woman smiling at him. In other photos, she was laughing with him, putting her hand on his shoulder.

What is she laughing at? he's not THAT funny, Zoe thought.

Zoe continued to scroll:

Cillian Murphy might have been called to begin filming, but that doesn't mean the fun has to end. Murphy, 46, was spotted out at Harry's Bar in London. Joining him at the posh bar was the rest of his Peaky Blinders cast, including new cast member Lizzie Hughes, who joined the cast last minute for season six. Previously modeling for Versace in their latest campaign, she excited to spread her wings and jump into her role - and it seems like Cillian Murphy has no problem showing her the ropes! As previously reported, Cillian was recently dating Zoe Parker, journalist. They have quietly spit earlier this month, and it seems Cillian is back in the dating pool. Scroll below for pictures from the wild night - by order of the Peaky Blinders -

Zoe's heart was in her throat.

"First of all, all the peaky blinders references are annoying," she said out loud, to anyone who will hear her. She looked at Scout, who was by the door again. "It's corny, right?" she asked him.

Scout just stared at her, then back at the door. She rolled her eyes and let him out again.

"Second of all, who the hell is Lizzie Hughes??" She opened up a new tab and searched her name. Millions of pictures came up, with her mile long legs and green eyes staring back at Zoe. She clicked on a picture that brought her to her call card, that had her contact information for bookings.

managed by Hannah Woods, Elite Talent and Public Relations.

That's... odd.. Zoe thought. Maybe it's a small world?

Zoe went back to the article and took a deep breath, she was about to click through the photos.

At first they weren't too bad. All of them out, drinks in hand, having a good time.

But in every picture, Lizzie was there, right next to Cillian. In some pictures, he was leaning in close to her, assuming to hear her. At least, that's what Zoe wanted to believe.

As she clicked through, it seems like they all got drunker and Lizzie got more touchy with Cillian. She had her hand on his bicep, hand on his chest, hand on his back. Cillian... wasn't stopping it.

The pictures got worse.

They were all leaving, and bringing up the rear was Cillian and Lizzie, arm in arm. She was leaning heavy into him, and he was holding onto her tight.

Zoe slammed the laptop shut, tears in her eyes, face bright red.

These pictures are exactly like the ones of her and Cillian. She was so embarrassed, so angry, so hurt. This wasn't like him, AT ALL. She thought she knew him and he was better than this, was this NOT the Cillian that she got to know, the Cillian she opened up to, the one who she sat on the beach with all those days ago.

Am I that forgettable? She thought, letting tears roll down her cheeks.

She was interrupted by Scout barking at a squirrel outside. She glanced at the clock on the stove - she was running late.

Shit, she mumbled, wiping her tears. She got up and went upstairs, planning on throwing on whatever she could to make it to the office at a decent time. She couldn't think about this, not now... But she was planning on texting him when she got to work. And she planned on thinking about what to say the entire time before getting to her office.

xx

Cillian was sound asleep, with about 15 minutes left before his alarm would go off.

Hannah, however, was wide awake.

She had the key to his hotel room, and she quietly let herself in. Cillian was asleep in the bedroom, however his cell phone, wallet and keys were on the coffee table in the living room. Hannah walked over and grabbed his phone, entering the password and opening it up.

She knew the Daily Mail article hit in the US already, and she was certain Zoe would have said something to him by now.

Since the cast had a wild night last night, production for the day was delayed and Cillian didn't have to be on set until later that evening. This allowed him to sleep well into the afternoon, since they all didn't get home until about 4am.

Hannah opened up his phone and smiled, texts from the 2 people she needed texts from; Lizzie and Zoe.

Lizzie: Thanks for being so kind, Cillian! you're sound, looking forward to a good season! x

Hannah rolled her eyes. she left that one unread; he could see that one.

She took a breath and opened the one from Zoe; she was ready to go back and forth with her a little.

Zoe: Hey. I thought you said you were working? looks like you had fun last night. You could have just said you were going out to eat; who's that girl?

Hannah couldn't help but smirk. She began typing:

Cill: hi. didn't know i need to tell u my every waking move. went out to dinner. nbd.

Zoe responded almost immediately.

Zoe: ... you don't need to? I was just asking. I was looking forward to talking to you.

Cill: i know but i cant drop everything to talk to u. im working. i cant pick my schedule like u do. im busy.

Zoe: ... okay? is everything okay?

Cill: this is stressing me out. this schedule isn't working. how bout ill call u whenever im free. don't call me. i cant keep having my phone go off. just lemme call u. i luv u but u gotta let me work. please. Zoe: you're acting weird. can you please pick up your phone? I want to talk. Cill: i can't right now. ill call u later. everything im fine. im sorry. <3 u Zoe: i love you too...

Hannah was interrupted by Cillian's alarm going off. She quickly deleted the text message thread and placed his phone on the coffee table. She opened her work bag and grabbed some papers, making it seem like she was working or going over a schedule.

Cillian emerged a few minutes later, in sweatpants and a sweatshirt. He turned and looked at Hannah.

"I wanna die." Cillian said, squinting at Hannah.

"Welp, partying like you guys did last night will do that to ya," Hannah said, smiling, "Coffee?"

"Tea, please." Cillian mumbled, stretching his arms over his head. "What time is it?"

"A little past 2pm" Hannah said, not looking up from her papers.

"Fuck. I have a workout in half an hour, i feel like shit, and then we start at what, 5 tonight?" Cillian groaned, hand going to the back of his neck and rubbing it. Hannah nodded, confirming the start time. He sighed and made his way to the bathroom.

"I'm hopping in the shower, can you please text Zoe for me and tell her i'll call her later?" He yelled over his shoulder, grabbing a fresh towel and closing the bathroom door.

"Hannah laughed, biting her lip to keep the noise down. "Consider it done, Cill!" She yelled back.

"Consider it done!"

This is part two of Day 9! Find the prompt list HERE.

── ･ ｡ﾟ☆: *.☽ .* :☆ﾟ. ･ ｡ﾟ☆: *.☽ .* :☆ﾟ. ──

DAY 12 Prompt: Haunting Additional tags: angst, emotional hurt/comfort, the Satan and Asmo friendship is so important

Asmodeus’s D.D.D. wouldn’t stop buzzing. 

The vibration was tinny, resonating with some sort of metal within the polished stone countertop of his vanity. The sound wormed its way through Asmo’s eardrum, needling at some part in his brain that stoked irritation. All he could do was scratch at his temples, the pressure pulsing behind his eyes building with each new notification across his screen. 

There were so many alerts from FabSnap, from Devilgram, from TrickTok. Interspersed by emails about online sales, exclusive deals, brand sponsorships for his DevilTube page, it was easy to write everything off as shallow. 

The word was haunting him. His reputation was haunting him. His fucking D.D.D. that would not stop buzzing was haunting him. 

Asmo lifted bloodshot eyes to the mirror, disgust flaring in his gut at the sunken skin beneath his dull eyes. He ran a hand through his unkempt hair. He couldn’t remember the last time he hadn’t bothered to style it before leaving his room. Then again, he couldn’t remember the last time he had failed to catch a wink of sleep and then skipped classes the next day, either. 

He had told himself it was an exercise in identity. If he purposely deprived himself of his perfect appearance, then he would be met with the pieces of him that remained behind the shattered veneer.

What he got was vibrating confirmation that all anyone wished to talk to discuss with him was his beauty and his influence. 

“You’re Asmo. You don’t do the hard work, you know?” 

And what if they were right?

A sharp rap on his door knocked him back to reality, the pain within his skull poking at his brain and making him wince.

One knock, then two. When he failed to answer, Satan’s voice called through the wooden panel of his sanctuary. “Asmo? Are you in there?”

Asmo shuddered at the sound of his name. Who was Asmodeus? Was he just an empty shell loved for its pattern and not the decaying hermit crab within? 

Satan tried again. “I can smell the fresh roses in the bath. Open up.”

Pulling himself up from his vanity chair, Asmo wrenched the door open, not bothering to mask his… Where did he even start? Frustration, exhaustion, anger, fear, pain? 

He settled for a simple, “Yes?”

“What’s wrong?” If Satan was taken aback by Asmo’s haggard appearance, he didn’t show it. 

“Nothing’s wrong.”

“That’s a lie.” Though Satan’s lips remained fixed in a stern frown, Asmo did appreciate the humor in his voice when he added, “You didn’t try to coax me into sharing a bath with you just now.” 

Asmo didn’t protest as Satan shouldered his way into the room. With his hands on his hips, his seagreen eyes took quick note of the dirtied makeup remover wipes still lingering by the bathroom sink, of the clothes from last night bunched into a corner by the closet. Concern overwhelmed Satan’s gaze as he accused, “You’ve been locked up here all day and you won’t respond in the house chat.”

The words bounced around Asmo’s head. Oh, Satan, how sweet of you to occupy your thoughts with ol’ adorable me~. Of course you can’t take your mind off me! I’m just too cute ♡! But, he didn’t have the energy to play it up. Instead, he deflated face first into the plush duvet of his bed. The movement pushed an anguished groan from his chest. 

The mattress shifted, Satan taking a seat on the edge of the bed. “Lying like that will leave imprints on your face.”

“I don’t care,” Asmo’s protest rose muffled and near indistinguishable from the fabric. 

“Asmo,” Satan huffed, though there was no impatience in the timbre of his voice, “Talk to me.”

Asmo considered it. Just for one moment. One moment where his stomach lurched and his temples throbbed and he spewed, “Am I shallow?”

“What do you mean?” Satan waited until Asmo had pulled himself up, hugging an embroidered pillow to his chest.

“Am I a shallow person?” The question scorched Asmo’s throat worse than the hard liquor he had switched to last night. Speaking the fear aloud was so much worse than letting it ferment in his brain. “Do I only care about image? Would you consider me someone to avoid putting the work in for anything?”

Satan’s expression was unreadable, much to Asmo’s disappointment. All his brother did was cock his head slightly to the right and ask, “Why would you say that?”

If Asmo had been hoping to bottle it up, well, Satan wasn’t going to let him. That simple, curious gaze lacking any judgment wrenched Asmo’s screw top open, the disturbed carbonation spilling out in a messy rant. “I offered to interview Zaramela for Devil Style because Lamiya said they aren’t doing a feature on her, even though she’s coming to our region. And then I thought, hey, this would be a good opportunity for Majolish to collaborate with Zaramela and release a new line for both party and casual wear that would appeal to both demons like, well, me, and demons like Levi!”

Satan hummed in understanding.

“But Lamiya and Marbas and Astia kind of…ignored me? And then, Astia told me that I don’t put in the work.” There were those words again. Asmo worried he was going to vomit everywhere, and it had nothing to do with his hangover. Burying his face in his hands, he lamented, “I feel like a loser.” 

The longer the silence stretched on, the less Asmo wished to lift his head. Was that embarrassing? Was he making a fuss about nothing? Was Satan going to agree with them? 

But then, Asmo felt a heavy hand pat his knee, and Satan spoke gently, “You’re not a loser. The people you surround yourself with are losers.” 

Asmo stilled. He spread his fingers, peered out at Satan from between digits. 

And Satan did not regard him with pity, or even sympathy for that matter. No, Satan lifted his hand away, tapped his index finger against his chin and considered, “Let me talk to Zaramela’s manager. Did you know they love cats? We met through an online chat group. They believe orange cats are superior to all, but I’ll overlook their ignorance and see if I can pull some strings.”

Asmo blinked. “Huh?”

“Don’t look at me like that.” Again, the irritation that flashed through Satan’s eyes was entirely void of any sort of commiseration. Really, Asmo should have known better. Satan wasn’t one to take Asmo’s feelings, ball them up and throw them away, but he also wasn’t the type to get into the nitty gritty mess that accompanied emotions. He was one to listen, to validate, and then to solve the problem. 

Asmo knew that Satan would never put his association on the line if he didn't believe in Asmo wholeheartedly. Such a show of trust spoke volumes, answering all his questions in one fell swoop.

The gratitude welled up in Asmo’s chest, pressing on his heart, and he thought he was going to cry. His bottom lip was trembling, his vision blurring as he started to sniffle. 

“Seriously,” Satan’s frown deepened. Pulling himself up from the bed, he made for the door. “Stop it. Why don’t you go talk to Levi about your ideas? I’ll let you know when I hear back from Kreos.” 

“Satan!” But Asmo wasn’t about to let him go that easily. He lunged forward, wrapping his technically little brother up in a tight embrace. “I love you so much ♡!”

Satan only sighed, though did not fight against Asmo’s arms. He allowed Asmo to hug him tight for a whole ten seconds before squirming away, not unlike a stray cat suffering unwanted affection. 

“Hey, Asmo…” Satan paused with his fingers hovering over the door knob. “Someone who doesn’t put in the work would never have been able to paint my nails. Don’t forget that.”

And Asmo thought that maybe, as Satan shut the door behind him, the affection wasn’t entirely unwanted after all.

His heart lighter than it had been in the last 24 hours, Asmo picked up his D.D.D., cleared all notifications without bothering to read them. Though the bright red numbers continued to tick up, up, up in the corners of his apps, he told himself that none of that mattered at this very moment. No, there was something he needed to do.

7:54pm - Asmodeus

Hiiii! Are you free right now?

7:55pm - Leviathan

Lol why does that sound like Mammon’s fail of a pick up line? Yeah, I’m in my room. Why?

7:56pm - Asmodeus

Yay! I’ll be right over! 😘

How to Build a Strong Personal Brand Online in 2025

In today’s digital age, your personal brand is often your most valuable asset. Whether you're a freelancer, entrepreneur, coach, content creator, or job seeker—building a powerful online presence can open doors, generate income, and create influence. In 2025, personal branding has gone beyond fancy bios and selfies. It’s about authenticity, authority, and consistency across platforms.

This guide will show you step-by-step how to build a personal brand online that attracts opportunities and earns trust in an increasingly noisy digital space.

Why Personal Branding Matters More Than Ever

The internet is saturated. Every niche is crowded. If you don’t stand out, you disappear.

But a strong personal brand:

Positions you as an expert in your field

Attracts clients, partnerships, or job offers

Builds trust and community

Helps you charge more for your time and services

Whether you're starting from scratch or refining your online image, a clear brand can be your biggest differentiator.

Step 1: Define Your Personal Brand Identity

Before posting content or building a website, get crystal clear on who you are and what you stand for.

Ask yourself:

What’s my mission or purpose?

What problems do I help people solve?

What are my values and beliefs?

What kind of audience do I want to attract?

This identity will influence your content, visuals, tone of voice, and positioning.

Pro Tip: A digital marketing consultant can help you craft a brand message that feels authentic and resonates with your ideal audience.

Step 2: Optimize Your Online Presence

Once you’ve defined your brand, your next goal is to align your online profiles with your message. That includes:

A professional profile photo

Consistent username/handle across platforms

A powerful, clear bio (who you help and how)

Links to your website, portfolio, or landing page

Focus on platforms where your audience hangs out—LinkedIn, Instagram, Twitter (X), YouTube, or your own website.

Need help building a stunning personal website? Work with a website development team that knows how to make your brand shine online.

Step 3: Create Valuable, Branded Content

Content is the engine that drives your brand. To gain visibility and trust, post content that provides value consistently.

Content types:

Educational posts (tips, how-tos, tutorials)

Opinion pieces or thought leadership

Behind-the-scenes or personal journey updates

Video content (vlogs, reels, YouTube shorts)

Live streams or podcasts

Create 3–5 content pillars that relate to your brand and rotate them weekly. Consistency builds recognition and loyalty.

Want a content calendar made just for you? Hire a social media expert to create, schedule, and manage content tailored to your goals.

Step 4: Build Credibility Through Social Proof

No matter how great your message is, people want proof that you’re legit.

Ways to build social proof:

Testimonials from clients or peers

Screenshots of positive feedback or results

Interviews or podcast guest appearances

Case studies or before-after transformations

Press mentions or awards

Even if you're just starting out, document small wins and share your growth journey. It builds relatability and authenticity.

If you want your brand to be seen by media outlets or featured on popular platforms, collaborate with a PR and branding agency that can get you noticed.

Step 5: Network and Collaborate

Your brand doesn’t grow in a bubble. The fastest way to grow your audience and credibility is through collaborations and relationships.

Try this:

Engage daily with your niche community

Comment meaningfully on others’ posts

Join Twitter/X Spaces, Clubhouse rooms, or LinkedIn groups

Collaborate on content, giveaways, or interviews

The more you're seen associating with other credible people, the stronger your personal brand becomes.

Step 6: Offer Something of Value (Lead Magnet)

Want to grow an email list or attract leads? Give something away in exchange for contact info.

Ideas:

Free guide or checklist

Ebook or mini-course

Exclusive newsletter or training

Templates or tools

Place it on a landing page and promote it via your social content, website, and bio link.

Need a custom-designed funnel to capture leads? Let a conversion specialist help you design one that turns visitors into subscribers or clients.

Step 7: Stay Consistent and Evolve

Personal branding is a long-term game. It’s built brick by brick, one piece of content and connection at a time.

Stay consistent by:

Posting regularly (daily or at least 3x/week)

Keeping your tone and visuals uniform

Tracking your analytics and learning what works

Updating your message as you grow

Remember: You are the brand. People don’t buy logos—they buy people they trust, relate to, and believe in.

Bonus: Tools to Level Up Your Personal Brand in 2025

Here are some tools and platforms that can help you scale faster:

Canva – Design stunning visuals easily

Notion – Organize your content and planning

Buffer / Hootsuite – Schedule content across platforms

ConvertKit / Mailchimp – Manage and grow your email list

Linktree / Beacons.ai – Create bio links with multiple destinations

And if you’d prefer to outsource and focus on what you do best, a full-service branding agency can take care of everything from identity to execution.

Final Thoughts

In 2025, your online reputation is your resume, your storefront, and your personal marketing campaign—all rolled into one. Whether you want to attract freelance clients, grow a social following, or become a thought leader in your space, personal branding is the way forward.

Remember:

Be real, not perfect

Be helpful, not salesy

Be consistent, not occasional

When done right, your personal brand becomes your passport to opportunity, income, and impact.

If you're ready to craft a bold, unforgettable personal brand, visit Pradeep Digital Marketing and let the experts help you build it from the ground up.

Day 7 - Heresy

Steps walked: 17,889

Flights climbed: 13

Vehicles ridden: 0!

Points of interest visited: 3

Leonardos spotted: only Michelangelos today

Early pink rays of the sun started to reflect off the Arno and into our bedroom this morning as we woke leisurely, having no train to catch and no hotel room to check out of. It felt so luxurious.

As to the mosquito, she may have been accidentally killed by Dan in his sleep when he scratched an itch on his nose, but I did not wake up unscathed. My arm is a tapestry of bug bites, with a few more scattered throughout the rest of my body. My last count was around a dozen.

We took our time waking up and having breakfast and around 10 I opened my email to look for the confirmation email to visit the Galleria dell’Academia to see the David at 1. I wanted to see if admission to the museum was at 1, or if it was a more specific time to see the David and we could go to the museum earlier.

Surprise surprise, our tickets were for… *drumroll please* 10 am. I naturally started to panic. We scarfed down a few more bites, got dressed, and were out the door just over five minutes later to start the short 15 minute trek to the Galleria. We were both 95% sure that they would let us in, but there’s always that 5% that says “They’re sold out, and they won’t let you in, and you came all the way to Firenze to see this sculpture and cross it off your bucket list and you fucked it up.”

There was a huge line wrapped around the Galleria and our admission was for between 10 and 10:15. So I said if they give us grief, we made it here by 10:15 (barely a fib, we really booked it) and have been in line ever since. Naturally it wasn’t a problem. They were monitoring ticket entry times, but they seemed to be turning away people who were early. I don’t know what would have happened had we been three hours late. No need to worry though! We strolled in with the masses clamoring to see the David.

I half expected a massive museum filled with other untold treasures, the David tucked away in its own room at the end, but it kind of leapt right out at us immediately off the bat. Sure there were other pieces, including a bunch of unfinished Michelangelos.

As you can see from these pieces, Michelangelo was as gay as the day is long. His pieces are all “tortured slave” or “dying slave” or “slave who just hit his head on a cabinet”** but they all seem to me to be contorted in semi-erotic poses. Tortured, sure, but sexualized. I think it adequately represents how the sculptor felt about his own sexuality.

I tried not to look at the David as we approached it, for some reason unbraced for the experience. It’s hard not to, tho. It’s so big. We circled it and marveled and cocked our heads (no pun intended) and admired and circled it a few more times. I could have stayed there for an hour. The thought of leaving made me sad. This has been a bucket list item for me for as long as I can remember, and the whole experience sort of caught me off guard. Not only did I think it would be in the afternoon, but I also didn’t expect it to be one of the first things on display at the Galleria. There was no build up to it. I was just suddenly in a room with the David. And I didn’t want to leave it.

But leave we must. The rest of the museum wasn’t speaking to us. In fact, we desperately wanted to get away from all the horrifying medieval baby paintings (all with the same face of a washed up mid-30s white male comedian). So we headed for the Basilica de Santa Croce, that cool church we happened upon yesterday. We got tickets to go inside, swallowing our discomfort at giving money to the church.

I was immediately put off when they requested I cover my shoulders. Apparently my tank top is too inappropriate for the institution that displays a tortured corpse above all their altars. They had plastic shawls for people to cover their shoulders or wrap around their waist if the clothes are deemed too revealing but fortunately I had a top to put on over my existing top. Here’s how I felt about it:

Lots of tombs, lots of monuments. The coolest:

* Galileo Galilei. This made me mad. How DARE the church claim his body, build a monument to him, after they exiled him for blasphemy and heresy? He changed the world for the better. Expanded our knowledge and understanding of the universe. The church banished him. And now they charge people €8 each to pay respects to his remains???

* Michelangelo. Ok yeah he was religious. But he was so gay and the church is a homophonic institution. Also audacious to have him here.

* Machiavelli. Hilarious that he’s so celebrated. Such a dick. No qualms with him being here.

* Tribute to Leonardo. He’s buried in France but they’re very proud of him so fine.

* Tribute to Dante. He’s buried in Ravenna. I accept this tribute. Makes total sense. Especially considering the nature of his most famous works.

* Florence Nightingale. Huh? What? Wasn’t she English? Is it just because her name is Florence? Well guess what my friends. Her name is Florence because she was born here! Her tribute was too small. We have her to thank in part for sterilization of medical equipment.

Lunch time. Despite my previous insistence on only going to vegan restaurants Dan talked me into going to a nearby vegetarian place that was half restaurant half cafe half bookshop dontquestionthemath. Turned out to be great. Gnocchi and tortellini and both phenomenally vegan.

We then discovered the Museo Galileo and looked it up and decided we had to go there. So our afternoon was spent looking at ancient sextants and astrolabes and thermometers and telescopes and microscopes. We even got to see Galileo’s literal telescopes. Like the ones he actually used to find the moons of Jupiter.

Then we stumbled upon a little glass display with a single digit inside: Galileo’s right middle finger.

This took me a moment to wrap my head around as you can see:

When his body was exhumed and moved to the Santa Croce where we saw it entombed, three fingers, a tooth, and a vertebrae were removed. One of the fingers is at this museum. No idea where the rest are. The gift shop was underwhelming. Sorry, dad. I wanted to get you a replica Galileo thingamabob for Yule but no such luck.

Our next stop was the museum next to the Duomo but it was sold out so we got our tickets for tomorrow. We meandered once more, saw a few dozen more incredible and ancient pieces of art, and went back to our apartment to have some wine before going out to dinner. We ended up setting chairs in our bedroom to look out over the Arno and our spectacular view as we enjoyed our wine, and at dusk a bunch of bats came out and started to feed so we watched them til dark. It was awesome.

Lunch was a 20 minute walk in a straight line to Il Vegano, a little hole in the wall that turned out to be outrageously flavorful and totally inexpensive. We got three entrées, one drink, and two desserts. <chef’s kiss>

On the way back to our apartment, night had fallen in earnest and we were serenaded by the outrageously talented buskers of Firenze, all thanks to the art mouth they live on no doubt.

Some thoughts about Firenze in no particular order:

* In the same way that the streets in Venezia were populated only by people, so too are these streets. The difference is that every once in a while everyone has to make space for a car fighting bravely against the pedestrian swarm. It’s hilarious.

* If I don’t have the river in sight, I lose all sense of direction. Put me next to the Arno and I know where I am. But once it’s out of my line of vision forget about it. I will lose myself among the winding, senseless paths and stare up at the 900 year old buildings and never find my way home.

* Oh yes, the apartment we’re staying in is in a 900 year old building. I wonder if the wifi was this bad back then. That also means it was here when Leonardo lived here.

* In Buffy, there’s a lot of demonic activity because Sunnydale is built on a hell mouth. Well I now have a theory that Firenze is built on an art mouth. It begets genius in art. It seeps out of the ground, the water, the trees. The buildings are imbued with an eternal wellspring of creativity.

* We had one set activity in mind for our visit to Firenze. Both of us wondered idly a few times “what will we do in Firenze? We have three days there!” Turns out it’s not enough time. We keep stumbling upon museums containing treasures and iconic artefacts and even historic corpses! (Or pieces thereof…) I could spend another week here and still not see everything I want to see. On the way to the tomb of Galileo we’ll discover the workshop where Michelangelo craved the David. How can we see it all?? We haven’t even left the historic district since arriving to our apartment.

**Dan named this one.

Blogging and digital learning

Blogging refers to writing, photography, and other media that's self-published online. Blogging started as an opportunity for individuals to write diary-style entries, but it has since been incorporated into websites for many businesses. The hallmarks of blogging include frequent updates, informal language, and opportunities for readers to engage and start a conversation.

What Is Blogging?

The word blog is actually a shortened form of its original name, "weblog." These weblogs allowed early internet users to "log" the details of their day in diary-style entries. Blogs often allow readers to comment, so as they became more common, communities sprung up around popular blogs.

If you want to create your online presence and share content you are passionate about, blogging can be a lucrative career choice. In this article, we answer, “What is blogging?”, explore its advantages, understand how you can start blogging and make money from it and share some tips for running a successful blog.

How Blogging Works

Blogging is as simple as obtaining a website and publishing original content on it. Tech-savvy bloggers can buy a domain name and build the website themselves. Those with less HTML knowledge can create an account with sites like WordPress that simplify the web design and publishing process.

Blogs are usually simple websites. Older pieces may be archived in separate sections of the site, and there may be a separate page with contact info or a bio, but the blog itself is usually just a single page that can be scrolled through—similar to the news feed on social media sites like Facebook. As with a Facebook news feed, a blog displays the newest content at the top of the page.

Pros and Cons of Blogging

Pros

Good for SEO

Maintains communication with customers

Builds rapport with customers

Generate alternate income

Cons

Time-consuming

Constantly requires fresh ideas

Payoff is delayed

Blogging in and of itself won't generate income

Requirements for a Blog

The good news is that starting a blog or adding a blog to your existing site is relativity easy and affordable. All you have to do is follow these four steps.

Set Up the Blog

There are free blog options such as WordPress and Blogger, but to retain control and a professional image, consider investing in a domain name and a hosting service. You can install WordPress or another content management system on your host if you don't want to create the whole site from scratch.

Add Content

Once your blog is up and running, you need to keep it active with new content to grow your business. Develop a set schedule for writing and posting blog articles. Create a content calendar so you always know what you're going to post.

Market

Like all other business ideas, your success comes from marketing and getting your message in front of your target market. Great ways to reach your market are through social media apps, email lists, and by reaching out to other bloggers, podcasters, and media outlets for publicity. Repurpose your blog content to promote your business across platforms, such as by using quotes on your Twitter or Instagram profiles, or by creating a video of your article to share on YouTube.

Add Income Streams

While your blog can complement an existing business, it's also a great way to add additional income streams to your home business. You can promote other companies' products and services in affiliate marketing. You can advertise or feed ad networks, such as AdSense, on to your blog. If you have a service business you're promoting with your blog, you can create your own information products to complement it. Or, if you have your own product, you can offer a service.

How to Use Resume Suite to Build an ATS-Friendly Professional Resume

Resume Suite is a 100% free, AI-powered resume builder designed to help job seekers quickly create professional, ATS-optimized resumes. Its creators built it to avoid the “freemium” traps common in other builders — there are no logins, no credit cards, no hidden fees. In other words, you get full access to every template and feature without a paywall. Resume Suite combines user-friendly design tools with AI writing assistance to make résumé building easy for everyone. As the developers note, it lets you build a “sleek, professional, ATS-friendly resume in minutes”. Whether you’re an experienced professional updating your CV or a student drafting your first one, Resume Suite provides professionally designed templates and real-time guidance — and all at no cost.

Step-by-Step Visual Guide to Using the Resume Builder

Follow these steps to build your resume in Resume Suite. We’ve included screenshots of the actual interface for reference.

Select a Template

Start by choosing a template from Resume Suite’s Template Library. The library (shown above) categorizes templates by style and industry — for example, “ATS-Friendly”, “Medical Assistant”, or “Customer Service” — and also highlights popular layouts. Click any template preview to begin. Each template uses a clean, one-column layout and standard fonts to ensure it’s ATS-compatible by default. In this free resume builder, selecting a template is as easy as browsing and clicking.

Customize Your Resume

After picking a template, you enter the editor. On the left you can change the design theme (for example, “ATS Contemporary” vs. “ATS Classic”) and color scheme. On the right you’ll see a live preview of your resume, where you can click into sections (like “Experience” or “Education”) to add or edit text. Resume Suite provides an intuitive, drag-and-drop interface, so you can rearrange sections or adjust formatting without hassle. The Professional templates are pre-formatted with logical headings (Summary, Skills, etc.), but you can easily rewrite any section. As the Resume Suite site explains, the tool offers “professionally designed templates [and] easy customization” so you can craft a job-winning resume in minutes.

Generate an AI-Powered Summary

Next, use the AI Summary Generator to create a strong opening paragraph. In the “Professional Summary” section, click the AI Generate button (highlighted above) and watch Resume Suite draft a targeted summary for you. The AI analyzes your job title and field to include relevant keywords and accomplishments. This is especially helpful if you’re not sure how to phrase your introduction. You can then tweak the generated text as needed. According to the site, Resume Suite “uses AI to guide you with personalized content, keyword suggestions, and professionally written phrases tailored to your job role and industry”, which is exactly what this feature does.

Generate Relevant Skills

In the Skills section, click AI Generate to have Resume Suite suggest key skills for your industry. The tool will automatically list 6–8 skills (as shown above) that are commonly sought for your role. You can add, edit, or remove any of these suggestions. These AI-suggested skills help ensure your resume includes the right keywords that recruiters and Applicant Tracking Systems look for. Again, the AI is personalizing its output based on your background, so you get meaningful recommendations without brainstorming from scratch.

Resume Suite lets you download your resume as a PDF for free — there are no watermarks or page limits. You can also print or email your resume directly from the app. Because downloads are unlocked, you can revise and re-download as many times as you want. (In future updates, Word format downloads will also be available.)

AI Tools: Simplifying and Personalizing Your Resume

Resume Suite’s built-in AI features set it apart from basic form-based builders. Instead of writing every bullet or sentence on your own, you have intelligent assistants guiding you. For example, the AI Resume Summary Generator uses natural language processing to craft a concise career summary tailored to your field, saving you time and ensuring you hit key points. Similarly, the AI Skills Generator automatically identifies important technical and soft skills for your role, so you won’t forget to include critical keywords. In short, Resume Suite is an AI-powered resume builder: it “uses AI to guide you with personalized content, keyword suggestions, and professionally written phrases”.

Personalized Content: The AI analyzes your industry and experience. It suggests phrases that highlight your accomplishments and fit your target job.

Keyword Optimization: By tapping AI assistance, you naturally integrate relevant terms (like tools, methodologies, certifications) that match what employers search for.

Time-Saving Automation: Instead of staring at a blank page, you get helpful drafts instantly. This is especially useful if English isn’t your first language or you’re new to resume writing.

Overall, the AI tools make Resume Suite feel like having a writing coach. Whether you’re tweaking an old resume or starting fresh, the AI-driven features help you put together a polished document much faster than writing entirely by hand.

ATS-Friendly Resume Templates

An ATS (Applicant Tracking System) is software used by most companies to scan and filter job applications before a human ever sees them. It looks for keywords, standard headings, and simple formatting. According to industry data, well over 95% of Fortune 500 companies use ATS software in hiring. In fact, research suggests up to 75% of resumes never reach human eyes due to ATS compatibility issues. This means even a perfectly qualified candidate can be screened out if the resume is poorly formatted or misses key terms.

An ATS-friendly resume avoids these pitfalls. As Resume Suite’s help page explains, it uses “simple formatting, standard section headings (like ‘Experience’ and ‘Education’), readable fonts, and no graphics or tables”. These practices ensure the software reads every part of your resume correctly. Resume Suite’s templates are all designed with these rules in mind. They feature clean, one-column layouts, bullet-point lists, and familiar section titles, so your resume will “never [get] tossed by the bots”. The ATS-friendly templates also prompt you to include plenty of relevant keywords in your summary, skills, and job descriptions.

In practical terms, here’s what makes Resume Suite’s templates ATS-compatible:

Clean Design: Templates use a minimalist, single-column layout without images, tables, or headers that can confuse ATS parsing.

Standard Headings: The builder automatically uses conventional headings (Summary, Experience, Education, Skills) so the software knows where to look for information.

Keyword Prompts: Each section includes example text or prompts to integrate role-specific keywords (e.g. tools, certifications, action verbs).

ATS-Friendly Formats: You download resumes in PDF (and soon .docx), which are the most reliable formats for ATS systems.

If you want more details on ATS requirements, see Resume Suite’s ATS-friendly resume templates guide. It walks through best practices and shows sample templates optimized for applicant tracking. By using one of these built-in ATS resume templates, you greatly increase the chances that your resume will pass the initial screening and end up on a recruiter’s desk.

How Resume Suite Compares to Traditional Resume Builders

Resume Suite offers several advantages over older or more limited resume builders:

No Paywalls: Many builders will only let you download in PDF after upgrading or will watermark your document. In contrast, Resume Suite is completely free. As the company emphasizes, there are “no hidden charges or locked features” — you can build, edit, and download unlimited resumes without paying. They built it specifically to avoid those “freemium” traps.

AI Assistance: Traditional builders usually provide static templates and blank fields. Resume Suite adds intelligence: it gives you instant content suggestions for your summary and skills. This AI-driven help saves time and makes the resume stronger. The site notes it’s “one of the few AI-powered resume builders that is truly free”, so you get smart features without a fee.

Built-in ATS Optimization: Some generic builders focus on eye-catching designs that may not parse well. Resume Suite’s templates are all ATS-optimized by design. You won’t have to worry about stripping out graphics or reformatting; it’s done for you automatically.

Unlimited Flexibility: Because everything is unlocked, you can experiment freely — change templates, rearrange sections, and try different wording without limits. Many other tools only let you save or download a few variations unless you pay.

Ease of Use: Resume Suite’s interface is modern and intuitive (drag-and-drop sections, real-time preview), which many older builders lack. You can see changes instantly and adjust layouts with just a few clicks.

Overall, Resume Suite streamlines the resume-writing process. It handles the technical bits (formatting, ATS rules) so you can focus on the content. And it does this for free, which is rare among professional resume builders.

Benefits for Different Users

Resume Suite is useful for a variety of audiences:

Experienced Professionals: Quickly refresh your resume without rebuilding from scratch. The AI tools can reframe your years of experience into concise summaries and action-driven bullet points. You also get polished templates that make your accomplishments look their best. (With this builder, adding keywords for each new role is easy, helping seasoned pros stay competitive in automated screenings.

Students and Interns: Creating a first resume can be daunting, but Resume Suite is “beginner-friendly and ideal for students, recent graduates, or those with little work experience”. It provides sections for projects, coursework, and skills, plus AI suggestions so you don’t overlook anything important. The guidance helps inexperienced job seekers highlight their strengths and potential.

Recruiters and Hiring Managers: While not end users of the builder, recruiters benefit indirectly. Applicants using Resume Suite are more likely to submit clear, ATS-compliant resumes with relevant keywords. That means recruiters spend less time wading through poorly formatted documents. In fact, since over 95% of large companies use ATS filters, a candidate who uses an ATS-optimized template is more likely to reach the recruiter’s desk. In short, Resume Suite helps deliver better-formatted candidates to recruiters.

First-Time Job Seekers: Building a resume from scratch is simpler with Resume Suite’s step-by-step process. Even if you’re new to resumes, the templates and prompts ensure you include all key sections. The AI assistance fills in content starters, so you won’t have to guess what to write. This makes crafting your first CV far less intimidating.

By focusing on these groups’ needs, Resume Suite ensures everyone — from fresh graduates to career changers — can make a high-quality resume. It democratizes access to tools that were once only available through paid services.

Why White Label Text Message Marketing Is the Smart Move & How to Choose the Best SMS Marketing Platform

In today’s mobile-first world, businesses that fail to leverage SMS marketing risk being left behind. With an open rate of over 98%, text messaging is one of the most powerful tools in digital marketing. But for agencies, software providers, and entrepreneurs, the opportunity goes even further — by offering white label text message marketing, you can provide SMS solutions under your own brand, unlocking new revenue streams and deepening client relationships.

If you’re looking to break into the text marketing space or level up your offerings, choosing the best SMS marketing platform is the foundation of your success. In this blog, we’ll dive into what white label SMS marketing is, why it matters, and how to choose the right platform for your business.

What is White Label Text Message Marketing?

White label text message marketing is a solution that allows you to offer SMS marketing services under your own brand — without developing the software yourself. A white label platform provides all the infrastructure, tools, and support needed for SMS campaigns, but it can be customized with your branding, logo, colors, and domain.

This model is ideal for:

Marketing agencies wanting to expand services

Startups looking for a turnkey SaaS business

Telecom providers wanting to add SMS as a value-added service

Franchise networks needing scalable, branded communication tools

Instead of building from scratch, you get a proven system you can offer to clients — with your name on it.

Benefits of White Label SMS Marketing

Brand Ownership You keep full control of your brand while delivering high-value services. Your clients see your name — not a third party’s.

Speed to Market You can launch your SMS marketing offering in days, not months. No coding, no development headaches.

Recurring Revenue Most white label platforms let you set your own pricing. This gives you predictable, scalable income with high profit margins.

Client Retention When clients use your branded SMS platform, they become more reliant on your services, which boosts long-term retention.

Key Features to Look for in the Best SMS Marketing Platform

Not all platforms are created equal. When evaluating white label SMS solutions, look for the following must-have features:

1. Brand Customization

Ensure the platform lets you customize the interface, domain, and email notifications so it fully matches your brand.

2. Campaign Automation

The best SMS marketing platform will offer automation features like drip campaigns, auto-responders, birthday messages, and appointment reminders.

3. Contact Management

Your platform should make it easy to import, segment, and manage contacts. Look for features like opt-in forms, keyword triggers, and list segmentation.

4. Two-Way Messaging

Modern consumers expect real-time, two-way communication. Choose a platform that supports conversational SMS.

5. Compliance Tools

TCPA and GDPR compliance is essential. Make sure the platform includes tools for consent management and opt-outs.

6. Analytics & Reporting

Detailed reporting helps you and your clients track success. Look for click-through rates, delivery stats, and response rates.

7. Integrations

Check if the platform integrates with popular tools like Zapier, Shopify, HubSpot, or CRMs. This adds value and makes adoption smoother for clients.

Top Use Cases for White Label SMS Marketing

Here are just a few ways your clients can use your SMS platform:

Retail: Send promotions, discounts, and flash sales

Healthcare: Send appointment reminders and patient follow-ups

Real Estate: Promote open houses and property listings

Restaurants: Send reservation reminders or loyalty updates

Gyms/Studios: Class reminders, schedule changes, or membership promotions

With so many verticals benefiting from SMS, your market opportunity is massive.

How to Launch Your White Label SMS Business

Choose the Best SMS Marketing Platform Do your homework, request demos, and test the features. Look for reliable support and transparent pricing.

Set Your Pricing Strategy Decide how you’ll charge clients — flat monthly fees, per message, or tiered pricing.

Customize the Platform Apply your branding, set up your domain, and tailor the UI to reflect your company.

Market to Your Audience Leverage your email list, LinkedIn, or existing clients. Highlight the benefits of SMS and show real-world use cases.

Offer Onboarding & Support Help clients get started with templates, tutorials, and onboarding sessions. This boosts adoption and retention.

Final Thoughts

The demand for SMS marketing is skyrocketing — and savvy businesses are tapping into this trend with white label solutions. By choosing the best SMS marketing platform, you can quickly establish yourself as a trusted provider, grow your brand, and create a recurring revenue stream.

Whether you’re an agency owner or tech entrepreneur, white label text message marketing is a smart, scalable business opportunity. Just make sure you partner with a platform that delivers reliability, features, and flexibility to support your growth

Automate Anything with Ease: A Beginner’s Guide to n8n Workflows

Imagine sipping your coffee while tasks run themselves—emails get sorted, data gets transferred between apps, and reminders are sent out—all without lifting a finger. Sounds dreamy, right?

Whether you're a solo entrepreneur, freelancer, content creator, or just someone who wants to do more with less effort, learning n8n for Beginners: Build Automations from Scratch!! is your ticket to unlocking that superpower.

But what is n8n? Why should you even care about it? And most importantly—how can you use it without needing to be a coding wizard?

Let’s break it down, the simple way.

What is n8n?

n8n (pronounced “n-eight-n”) stands for “nodemation”—basically, node-based automation. It’s a free, open-source workflow automation tool that helps you connect different apps and services together. It’s kind of like Zapier or Integromat, but with more control and flexibility.

Here’s what makes n8n stand out:

✅ Open-source (so it’s customizable and free)

✅ Powerful workflow builder

✅ Connects to 200+ apps (and growing)

✅ No-code/low-code platform

In other words, it gives you a visual playground where you can build automations—without needing to be a tech genius.

Why Automations Matter (Especially in 2025)

Time is your most valuable currency. In 2025, with the explosion of digital tools and platforms, we’re constantly switching between emails, CRMs, spreadsheets, Slack, Discord, social media—and the list goes on.

Manual work slows you down.

Automation helps you:

✅ Eliminate repetitive tasks

✅ Boost productivity

✅ Scale your business or operations faster

Now imagine setting up workflows in minutes that save you hours every week. That’s what n8n delivers.

Getting Started: Is n8n Really for Beginners?

Short answer? Absolutely.

Even if you're new to the world of automation, the n8n for Beginners: Build Automations from Scratch!! course guides you step-by-step in a super friendly, visual way.

You’ll learn:

✔️ How to install and access n8n

✔️ How to design your first workflow

Each step is a node in your workflow, and you can drag, drop, and configure them with a few clicks.

Here’s the typical workflow logic:

Trigger (an event like form submission)

Actions (do something based on the trigger)

Conditions (set filters or logic)

End Result (email, message, file, update, etc.)

And voilà—your automation is ready!

Why Choose n8n Over Other Tools?

Hospital Management System Development for Multi-Speciality Hospitals

Running a multi-speciality hospital isn’t just about saving lives. It’s about coordinating departments, managing data, and ensuring patient satisfaction—all at the same time.

That’s where smart hospital management system development comes in. It brings everything—appointments, billing, diagnostics, pharmacy, records—into one connected platform.

In this blog, we’ll explain what a custom hospital management system should look like, the problems it solves, and how Idiosys Tech, a trusted web development company in Kolkata, builds reliable digital solutions for hospitals that want to modernize.

  Why Off-the-Shelf Software Doesn’t Work

Hospitals are complex. Your outpatient flow is different from inpatient care. Your surgery unit doesn’t work like the pathology lab. Most ready-made tools miss these nuances.

That’s why hospital management software development needs to be custom. It must reflect your departments, staff roles, and workflows. Only then can it truly reduce errors, speed up processes, and improve patient care.

What Every Hospital Management System Should Have

Appointment and Registration

Let patients book slots online. The system checks doctor availability and confirms instantly. Everyone gets reminders so no one misses an appointment.

Health Records

All patient history, lab results, and prescriptions are stored digitally. Doctors access this from any department. That’s what a good hospital management system software delivers.

Billing and Payments

Track consultations, room charges, tests, and pharmacy bills. The system generates invoices, processes payments, and handles insurance claims without errors.

Inpatient and Outpatient Flow

From admission to discharge, every step is logged. You’ll always know bed availability, pending surgeries, and discharge timelines.

Inventory and Pharmacy

You won’t run out of stock or keep expired medicines. The system sends alerts and tracks every medicine from receipt to issue.

Lab and Diagnostics

Doctors can request tests. Lab techs get notified. Reports are uploaded once ready. No delays, no lost forms.

Doctor and Staff Access

Each user has a dashboard. Doctors see appointments and records. Nurses get task lists. Admins monitor everything.

Reports for Admins

Want to know how many patients visited last week? Which department made the most revenue? A smart hospital management system gives you that data instantly.  

What Happens Without a System

Departments Work in Silos

Labs, pharmacy, and doctors don’t share updates. It leads to delays and confusion. An online hospital management system connects them all.

Patient Records Go Missing

Paper files get lost. Emails are missed. Digital records stay safe and available 24/7.

Billing Gets Messy

Manual calculations are slow and error-prone. Software automates everything.

You Waste Inventory

Without tracking, medicines get overstocked or expire. Inventory modules solve this.

Admins Are Overwhelmed

Without automation, staff spend hours on tasks that should take minutes.

Why It’s Worth the Investment

A smart hospital management system software saves time, cuts errors, and improves care. But more than that—it prepares your hospital for the future.

You don’t just fix daily issues. You also:        • Reduce paper and manual work        • Make data-driven decisions        • Improve coordination across teams        • Give patients a smoother experience
