blogwrite_2.gif That’s according to a survey conducted through WordBiz Report (delivered to 13,000-plus subscribers). In addition, 45% of respondents say they are unsure of what to write about. 18% question if the content needs to be edited or pre-approved. 15% wonder who would be responsible for the content. In response to these concerns – and others – I’m offering a BlogWrite teleseminar on Wednesday October 20, 2004 from 1:00 – 2:15 PM Eastern. Dial in (or order the audio CD) to find out how writing a business blog can be quicker and easier than publishing an e-newsletter…

and yet equally effective in generating leads and building a relationship with your target audience.

We’ll also cover:

– how you can minimize the time it takes to maintain a blog

– How to handle the editing or pre-approval process your organization might insist on

– How to develop editorial guidelines and a corporate blogging policy

– How to convince a skeptical boss that blogging is effective and can have a measurable ROI

– who in your company or organization should be blogging

– what writing style and “voice” are appropriate for your blog

– defining an audience for your blog from the media and analysts to prospects and current customers

– what topics will most engage your audience

– how you can measure the return on your blogging efforts

– how a blog fits in with – or replaces – an e-newsletter

Again, the details…
