This is me when I was in high school. Sitting in class, cheesing with my friends and learning about hospitality and tourism. I’m still nerdy, but thankfully I have grown into my “nerdiness.”
Phew, now that we got that out of the way, let’s talk about how I can help you achieve your business goals.
But before we do that, let me tell you a little about myself.
A little about me
I am a millennial finance expert and self proclaimed money nerd. I founded this website in 2015 as a way to help combat a lack of financial education for 25-35 year olds. I have my bachelors in Accounting, and my masters in Business Administration.
My business started when I graduated from college with $30,000 in student debt. After putting together a plan, living on a budget, and working 70-80 hours a week, I was able to pay off the entire $30,000 in 10 months. Friends and family asked for help with their own financial plans and that’s where my business blossomed.
Since the start of WhitneyHansen.com, I have helped over 2,000 people pay off debt, take control of their finances and manage their credit responsibly. My business also gained the attention of Boise State University and almost two years ago, I brought my content and courses to students across campus. The class has become so popular that we are hiring additional adjunct to help support the growth and additional sections of the course. (The crazy thing is, this is just an elective for students!)
When I’m not writing, coaching others, or podcasting, I can usually be found mentoring other entrepreneurs, drinking coffee and traveling the world.
My highlight reel in a nutshell:
- Buying my first home at 19 years old
- Being a first generation college student
- Paying off $30,000 in 10 months
- Paying $472 for my masters degree
- The Money Nerds Podcast was nominated as an 8th Annual Plutus Finalist for “Best New Personal Finance Podcast”
So let’s talk about how I can help you.
Content Writing
One of my strong points is being able to take a complex idea and make it simple and easy to understand. My writing style is very conversational. so you might feel like we are sitting at a coffeeshop and talking about money.
If you are in need of content for your website with a fast turnaround time, and a unique voice and personality, I’m the gal for you.
I work with all budgets, big and small, and can help you make your campaigns shine with personality and education.
Sponsored Posts
One thing that personal and corporate brands sometimes struggle with is gaining exposure to a Millennial audience. Speaking to a millennial audience is something I’m very well versed in and do weekly through my social media profiles, blog posts, and podcast episodes. But sometimes, tooting your own horn isn’t always the most effective marketing strategy. That’s where sponsored posts come in. These posts live on WhitneyHansen.com, link back to your website, and have a direct call to action that helps support your marketing goals.
If you are in need of an article that highlights your product or service in an honest manner and reaches tens of thousands of people per month, than sponsored posts might be for you.
Speaking
Finding a dynamite speaker who can cut straight to the chase, with laughter, tears, or unforgettable knowledge is hard. Thankfully, I have became very well versed in teaching workshops, keynote speaking, and speaking to diverse audiences online and in-person.
I’ve worked directly with corporations to provide financial workshops for their employees, multiple conferences, high school students who need to learn how to budget for college, entrepreneurs who could use an extra boost in motivation, and even first generation college students.
If you need a speaker that has a refreshing perspective, powerful personal story, and actionable takeaways, I’d love to talk with you and learn more about your next event.
Podcast Advertising
Podcasts listeners are some of the best people! They tend to be highly educated, willing and eager to learn new things, and much more likely to try new products that have been recommended by a voice they trust. Podcast listeners are also much more likely to listen to an entire episode (as opposed to radio ads, YouTube videos, or Facebook Ads).
My podcast, The Money Nerds, is a great way for you to reach an audience of 25-45 year olds interested in fin-tech, personal finance, products and services that save them time, and personal development.
If you are trying to reach more people, podcast advertising is a great way to go. Together we create a 30 second ad to share before, during, or after the episode that highlights your brand in the best way possible without sounding forced or overly “corporate.”
Collaboration with other bloggers
As a blogger, finding personal finance experts to collaborate with that provide meaningful content that resonates with your audience can be like finding a needle in a haystack.
I work with other bloggers all the time to discuss guest posts, blog post swaps, speaking at summits, and supporting each other’s efforts.
If you would like to collaborate, please reach out to me.
