Good Cookies Website Blog"},"content":{"rendered":"\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why a blog?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hello lovely people reading this, welcome to the first and real Amsterdam! Good Cookies Blog! I have to say it&#8217;s quite exciting to write a blog again. I did it before back when I travelled a lot, and I&#8217;ve also done it a few times for my other website kevinmooibroek.com.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But because I&#8217;ve been so busy with Amsterdam! Good Cookies, it was sometimes hard to find the time and simply do it. Luckily I&#8217;ve found that time again, because I think it&#8217;s SUPER COOL to keep you up to date on the ADVENTURES and experiences in our company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So what we&#8217;re going to do now is write a BLOG FOR YOU 2 TIMES A MONTH. At least\u2026.. that&#8217;s the plan and the mindset. But don&#8217;t hold us to it if we only tell you something once a month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">So what have you been up to?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We&#8217;ve experienced a lot over the past 2.5 years! What I experienced this week is actually quite funny. Of course you can already see a lot of it on our Facebook page,&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.twitter.com\/adamgoodcookies\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Twitter<\/a>&nbsp;or&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.instagram.com\/amsterdamgoodcookies\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Instagram<\/a>, which we&#8217;ve been doing for a few years now. But we also often get lots of questions by email, WhatsApp or Snapchat. (Yes, we&#8217;re on there too: AdamGoodCookies :)).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And the questions we get are often only answered for the people who emailed, texted or snapped us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So I thought\u2026. Hey, wouldn&#8217;t it be REALLY COOL to answer those questions in my Blog? So we&#8217;re simply adding this section to this Blog. But tell me, what kind of questions do people ask? Well, below are a few, one of which I&#8217;ll answer for you now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Questions<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>How on earth did you end up selling stroopwafels?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Where do you find the time to be constantly visible on Social Media, to export, write Blogs, attend Events, etc. etc.?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Why is Amsterdam in your brand name?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>How did you ever get started?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Have you ever had any real setbacks?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Right, these are some of the questions we get, which makes sense of course.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The question I want to pick out is the 2nd one above: where do I find the time to be present almost everywhere? If not online, then in person.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yes, I&#8217;ve asked myself that question too.. So I figured out how best to manage it. And the answer is actually very SIMPLE and a CLICH\u00c9. It&#8217;s PLANNING.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">SOCIAL MEDIA has lots of platforms that let you schedule posts. Facebook has this feature built in, so on a Sunday evening you can already write quite a few posts yourself. For example before and after the sports highlights on TV :).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You&#8217;ve already taken the photos etc. during that week, so you can just add them. The same goes for all the other Social Media platforms. Hootsuite, for example, is a very good one, and we use it too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So if you&#8217;ve already scheduled all these posts for 1 or 2 weeks, or for 3 days, you have much more peace and time to export and to be at Events. At Festivals\/Events you can then go LIVE on Facebook, or make a nice POST for Instagram, which you can combine with Twitter again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">All those experiences later come back in a Blog and\/or Newsletter, and so the circle is complete. And that&#8217;s pretty COOL, I can tell you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By the way, have you signed up for our NEWSLETTER yet? Then do so&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.amsterdamgoodcookies.com\/en\/contact\/\">HERE<\/a>&nbsp;and also receive a NICE GIFT for our webshop!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I&#8217;ve written enough for a first time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In 2 weeks, or maybe even next week, a new Blog about the adventures we have. And if you have a question or want to take a look behind the scenes, add us on Snapchat (adamgoodcookies).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Or email your question to info@amsterdamgoodcookies.com. Have a nice day and don&#8217;t forget to enjoy!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Cheers, Kevin Mooibroek, Amsterdam! Good Cookies, We Let People Smile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Next time, the following topics:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Personalised Tins<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Food Truck<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Question of the week<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Special Item!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Why a blog?
