If you're too busy to promote your business, then stop here.
The INTERNET is Real Estate. If you're not using IT to promote your business, you may be out of it (business) soon. The X,Y generations are our CLIENTS now. Or, will be soon. You know what they use to find their DREAM HOME? Yes, that's right, THE INTERNET. Thus.... blogging comes into play.
I've been a member of ACTIVERAIN for well over 3 years. I've LEARNED 75% + of what I know about blogging from ACTIVERAIN. I've "invested" plenty of time learning, and if you WANT to learn, you've got to do just that. LEARNING doesn't just happen. YOU make it HAPPEN. And it DOES take plenty of time.
Below are some tips on WHERE & HOW to start Blogging
1. JOIN ACTIVERAIN. ActiveRain is FREE for "Member's Only" posts. To MAXIMISE your business/exposure, you really want to be a RAINMAKER. RAINMAKER accounts do cost ($29.00 a mo), but they also get your posts out to EVERYONE/Consumers. That is the idea, isn't it?.
2. Read ACTIVERAIN GUIDELINES, as this can keep you out of trouble. Pay close attention to PLAGIARISM, aka STEALING (this is the biggest problem with blogging). Go check out the ACTIVERAIN MANUAL. But don't just go there, go THROUGH the manual. It's a MOUNTAIN of INFORMATION
3. REGISTER for Training Classes (online!).
4.START BLOGGING! Write a post. DO IT! Your first post could be an introduction: About you, the company you work for and your expertise. From there on out, write about your area, local events, whatever you think the consumers looking to buy in your area WANT to READ.
5. Last but not least; BE YOURSELF. Let the consumers see YOUR personality. Write how you speak.
