BLOGS FOR BUSINESS

Are you a small business owner? Entrepreneur? Mega corporation? Times of marketing are evolving as technology does. The blogosphere is getting so vast and large because it serves a fundamental purpose to gain more traffic in a creative way, which will then lead to your primary goal, driving sales. 

The internet is an explosion of information. So much that it is sometimes overwhelming. The importance of having a blog is higher than ever. Utilize it as a marketing tool for your business. It's the same with social media. Facebook, which started as a social outlet for college students to reconnect, is now a leading tool in business. Your business needs to create interesting content to attract more clients.

Which brings me to my next point, visual communication and design. You are bombarded with advertisements all day long, even if you don't realize it. (If you don't realize it, whoever posted that advertisement is doing their job RIGHT!). If you want to run your own business, you have to understand the basics of graphic design and how to create a graphic that will draw peoples attention because most people want to look at the pictures rather than read a long, dragged out essay. 

I found this really interesting infographic on the "Anatomy of Marketing". It really outlines the purpose of blogging and how it can truly benefit your business.

 Knowledge is power. You need to constantly reinvent your marketing strategies, even if your company has used the same old traditional techniques for ages. How do you utilize the web to market yourself?
