Business Blogging

The last week has been a major revelation for me - I have seen atleast two (one of them a pretty comprehensive success story) case studies where a properly put together, continously updated business blog & Online Networking thing - can prove to be an EXCELLENT business development resource - for the guy who is maintaining it AND for anyone who wants to employ/coordinate/discuss new things with the writer of the journal - you enter the table with a LOT of insight on the person's background, quality, experience etc. which makes it VERY easy to work together.

I'l do more stuff on my blog here on on these lines - instead of time wasting, lyrics writing and general bitching.

For starters:

Heres my little profile (i was about to write, 'Pathetic little' - but in business blogging - theres NO room for self depreciatory lines :0 ) on LinkedIn:

Il be updating it soon.

One really good line, which seems almost too simple, but is the LESSON OF THE YEAR for me, is here:

" The reason it seems that price is all your customers care about is...
... that you haven't given them anything else to care about."

I guess il print it on a Tee Shirt and send it to all our key salesmen or something - and for 'green' guys like me who think nothing about cutting prices left and right with utter disregard to anything else while making deals - i guess we cud tattoo this one across our foreheads.

( Heres the actual blog's URL with the full article http://sethgodin.typepad.com/seths_blog/2007/05/price.html )

So heres to 'better blogging' and 'giving my customers more' !! Cheerio !!
