Blogging - a marketing tool

I am always looking for ways to better communicate with my audience and hopefully have them communicate back. Blogging is one form of marketing that should not be overlooked. Jay Conrad Levinson of Guerrilla Marketing says there are over 100 ways to market but that most companies are using less than five methods. Some companies use only one or two methods to market their company and then wonder why their response rate is so low.

For those thinking to start their own blog, I would recommend the following site. GobalaKrishnan.com is a blog that helps you start your own Internet home business. If you review his blog, he’ll link back to you and send you a ton of traffic. He is also a prolific writer so you will not be wanting for information.

A blog can be set up in minutes. However, to see results will take time and some dedication. It does allow for more informal communication and can be one of many ways to attract attention and interest in your company's products and services.

Whether you decide to blog or not, do review how many marketing methods you are using presently. Strive to implement at least one new method each month and watch your inquiries and sales grow.
