As part of our host of services, iMark customizes and sets up Blogs for our clients. We also provide blog writing services and intro to blogging and social media learning sessions. Naturally we inform all of our blog customization clients of the latter two mentioned offerings.
I have had a few clients scoff at the idea of having a professional blogger writing content on an ongoing basis for their corporate blog and that is okay. If you have the time, talent, and inclination, I encourage you to go for it yourself! In fact, we will coach and help our clients to make the most out of their blog, should they need our assistance; not only in the form of one-on-one learning sessions, as mentioned above, but also on an as needed basis (usually for free, as long as the client doesn’t get carried away!) and through the occasional tips on our blog and in our newsletters. In fact, here are some very useful blogging tips that we posted to our blog not too long ago, if you happen to be looking for a few successful blogging hints.
While some people and corporations are ready, willing and able to maintain a successful blog, it might not make sense for others. If you happen to fall in the category of OTHERS, then it of course makes more sense to hire an inexpensive yet reliable blogger than to go without a blog altogether. Or, as yet another alternative, hire a blogger to co author your blog. This way if you get swamped at work or temporarily lose inspiration, you will not lie awake at night worrying about the unkempt state of your blog …or maybe that is only me, but you know what I am saying!
In my next post, I will write some very good arguments in favour of making the leap to hire a blogger rather than attempting to maintain a blog on your own.
