Do businesses need to blog?

Join me at 7:30 a.m. this Thursday at the North Hennepin Area Chamber of Commerce’s Business Connections series (at Edinburgh USA) to talk about the business of blogging.

The topic of the talk is “Does my company need to blog?” and we’ll discuss:

  • The business case for blogging, or publishing a regularly updated set of articles, news or information about your company
  • The most common blogging tools — WordPress, Blogger, TypePad, etc.
  • Strategy first: How to decide what you want to get out of your time
  • Social Media Integration: Make your blog work double- or triple-duty by cross-posting your content on Twitter, LinkedIn, Facebook, etc.

And much more!

If you have any specific questions you’d like answered and are planning to attend, chime in below. I’ll make sure to include plenty of time for Q&A.
