Prior to taking a Social Media
class, I would say why bother with blogging. There are so many out there, what
makes you so sure your will be read, or why even bother, someone else is out
there doing it already.
Then I learned what blogging
can do for a business, especially a smaller business. It doesn’t require a lot of money, just some
time and even a little creativity. Below
are my top 3 that event companies should consider when blogging.
1. Always make sure your content
is up to date. There is nothing worse
than old pricing, or items that are no longer available. It is so frustrating. Like many, I try to save time (and gas) by
doing a lot of research online. I don’t
always like to call the companies, but would rather look them up online.
2. If someone leaves comments
(positive or negative) or asks questions, be sure to answer and in a timely
fashion. There is nothing worse than being
left hanging and waiting. It could mean
the difference between choosing that particular company..or their competitor.
3. Depending on the nature of
your business, in my case events, I love to see pictures of decorated venues,
or invitations. Although I like to use
my own ideas, reading about others, and even better...seeing pictures will
often help me out. I am so visual!
What about you...what are your top 3????
