How to Blog for Your Small Business

Blogging for your already existing business is very different than blogging as a business. So many of the resources available on blogging are meant for those interested in “getting rich” or making money from the act of blogging. For businesses — whether brick and mortars developing an online presence or those that sell online already — the purpose of blogging and the goals they hope to reach are very different. Blogging is a means for greater brand exposure, brand positioning, expert status and increased traffic.

In this presentation, I show you how to develop a business blogging strategy that is right-sized, smart and appropriate for your business. We’ll cover:

  • How to define a true purpose for your blog
  • Finding and defining your audience and their needs
  • Creating an editorial vision and plan that serves your purpose and audience
  • How to set realistic and measurable goals for your blog
  • How to pull it all together to create a sustainable and long-lasting blog presence
