ARE YOU BLOGGING ALONE?

You have started fulfilling your dream by starting a

small business. It’s up and running, some people are

visiting your website and sales are happening.

But, something seems to be missing…

Sales aren’t increasing like you thought they would. You

are not generating new clients or customers and are

even losing some.

If you don’t turn this trend around soon, you may need

to think about closing.

“What if I put my expertise out on the information

super highway and start a blog. If people know

about me and trust my advice, surely they will

come through my website door at some point.

Blogging seems easy. All I have to do is find

someone to polish it up a little bit and the words

should automatically pull in my clients or

customers and drive some sales.”

Unfortunately,

that alone is a

poor blog

marketing

strategy!

You wear a lot of hats as a small business owner. Most people

choose a particular type of business because they have a

talent or dream that produces a saleable service and/or

product. Unfortunately, most do not believe they have the

talent required to market their blog effectively.

Sure, you know you have to create an

interesting, attractive website, and you

may even blog about you product or

services, but how exactly does that alone

draw people to your electronic door?

Blogging will draw people to your

business, but…

Unfortunately a blog will not do the job alone.

Other blog marketing efforts HAVE to be made.

First of all, who is going to read you blog

unless they know where to find it?

Some means of leading them to the

information has to be in place before you

blog.

Publishing

your blog is just

one piece of

that puzzle!

Someone is obviously

interested in the

services you offer or

the product you sell

or you wouldn’t have

gone into business in

the first place.

These people, these steady

clients or customers, are the

first people you need to reach.

You know what

type of people buy

your services

and/or products,

all you have to do

is let them know

it’s out there ready

for them.

Blogging can be a very effective tool… you just have to

make sure you add blog marketing to your overall small

business marketing plan.

If you do this, more people will find out who you are

and learn what you have to offer.
