Welcome to
Imagine Your Reality Business and Social Media Coaching.
My name is Taylor Ellwood. I am a business and social media consultant, as well as a freelance editor and writer. Of course,
I wasn't always doing what I do now. If you'd like to know a bit more about me, let me tell you my story.
I first started writing as a teenager, and in college, at Penn State University, I decided to major in English. When I graduated college I worked as a baker for several
years, because I wasn't sure what I could do with an English degree. Eventually I went back to school for a Master's degree in English
at Clarion University. While there, I became interested in how students used the internet to do research for writing they needed to do.
After the Master's at Clarion I attempted a Ph.d degree program at Kent State University in Literacy, Rhetoric, and Social Practice, where I
continued doing research about how students used the the available internet technologies to research and learn. I eventually left the Ph.d program
when I realized I was doing it for the wrong reason: Namely to get some job security. I didn't like what I was doing, because academic work is
mostly focused theory, as opposed to practical applications. I'm a very practical person and I realized I needed to do hands-on work.
I moved out to Seattle, where I started doing Technical Writing for Boeing. What I enjoyed the most wasn't the writing, but rather
testing the technology and learning how it worked. I left Seattle after a year, because I found it had too much traffic, and it just didn't feel like home.
In fact, everytime I visited Portland I felt like I was home, so I ended up moving here, and doing some more Technical Writing for Nike, Intel, and United Information Technology. But I wasn't just doing technical writing...
Shortly after I moved to Portland, I met someone who was a coach and as I watched him teach a class, I realized I could do that to.
I started researching coaching schools and picked the Baraka Institute. In six months I was certified as a coach, and in April 2008, I started
my coaching business, which initially was focused vaguely on creativity and wealth.
Since then, I've worked with small businesses to help them understand integrate social media marketing and customer service into their
existing marketing and customer service. I've also been writing a book on social media, developing instructional videos, and offering
professional speaking and instruction on social media for business. On average I am doing 3 to 5 speeches a month on social media.
My passion for helping others succeed in developing their business extends to the
Imagine Your Reality Radio show,
which I use to interview other business owners about what they do and love. I also do the
social media coach radio show, where I
offer free tips and suggestions and information about social media trends and technology.
You can find me online at linkedin,
biznik, and twitter as well.
Thank you for your interest in Imagine Your Reality coaching!

All the best,

Taylor is an articulate and effective educator, who assists entrepreneurs in generating a linear plan of action to
grow their businesses. I recently paid for, participated in, and very much enjoyed one of Taylor's classes, covering available
online social-networking technology, and how to effectively harness and systematize it to expand and develop business via the
electronic medium. Taylor was well researched and well organized, taught from an outline, and re-enforced key teaching
points with relevant examples from his experience, as well as that of others. I learned a great deal from Taylor in a
short amount of time, as he also creates a very comfortable atmosphere within which participate and ask questions. -- Steve Chapman, Portland or
