Here’s the thing, blogging about your business is self-promotion and is considered to be spam by some. However, if you let someone else promote your business through a blog, it is acceptable. Why? Because the readers will think that your business must be good enough for some other people to be promoting it for you. It is close to being a testimonial. Don’t you think testimonials are way more believable than your own words about your business?

Right Sage! In addition, people who write for a living can help the business owners make well- written and engaging blog posts. These writers have more time to examine and make sure that all posts are precise, educational, and informative. They can also make any boring subject or technical subjects appealing to the readers.

I make $20 for each 20 minute survey!
ReplyDeleteGuess what? This is exactly what big companies are paying me for. They need to know what their customer needs and wants. So big companies pay $1,000,000's of dollars per month to the average person. In return, the average person, myself included, participates in surveys and gives them their opinion.
