Do you hunt for free marketing treasure like I do? Looking for free marketing opportunities is well worth the time. I hate to say it (because you are thinking you cannot do this) but a professional blog is one of the easiest and most valuable assets you could have in your marketing treasure chest. With the right process and content, you can point clients, prospects, professional peers, and others to really find out what you are all about and what you do.
There are many free blog sites, such as Blogger and Wordpress for you to join - just do a Google search.
Aw...you say...I can't write, I don't write, I have no time to write. Then, I have to mess around with figuring out the blog templates and process.
Me too! I find that writing posts for my blogs are often pushed aside and I never "get to it." One of the road blocks is the process of having to go on the Internet to my blog site, sign in, and use the template. The template sometimes goes goofy on me and I have to redo my work, then once posted I have to edit again and again to get it tweaked. It gets frustrating!
Maybe this will help me and perhaps you!! I discovered Windows Live Writer. You can write your posts offline and use it like any other software on your own computer. No glitches and no slow Internet connections. The choice to publish immediately or to schedule your post is very useful.
This is my first post offline for this blog and to be published through Windows Live Writer! Tell me how it looks!
In the next few posts we will work through how you can use your existing content for your blog and how to market your blog online. Stay tuned!
