If you’ve been wondering if blogging is the right tool to deploy to build your business, ask yourself if the following objectives are on your buzz-building wish list:
- Build community among your ideal clients and customers;
- Make friends and influence people;
- Earn Page One rankings for your name or company name on Google;
- Reinforce your expertise as an expert;
- Invite and convert fans into ezine subscribers efficiently;
- Influence fans to become customers more readily;
- Save valuable time delivering information one-to-many;
- Invite new opportunities to be of service, participate in joint ventures, speak, and grow your influence;
- Showcase the success you help contribute to others;
- Contribute to revenue generation.
Based on my experience since September 1, 2007, blogging has proven to be a powerful way to enjoy all of these benefits.
For those of you who are completely new to blogging, take heart. You don’t have to be a “techie” to blog. Yes, there is plenty to learn, and you’ll learn what you need to learn one step at a time. Rome wasn’t build in a day. It happened brick by brick. The key is to get started because great rewards are waiting, provided you are ready to rock and roll. I’ll share the nitty-gritty details at tonight’s event. See you then.
