Sound corporate blogging advice from Micro Persuasion:
PR instinct tells us to have
the executives – and only the execs – speak for the firm. But blogs
break down these walls. We can now hear from everyone inside the heart
of a corporation – if the company is willing to let them speak. I trust
companies that are willing to do this. Sometimes it’s the CEO, often
times it isn’t. Heck, customers could be the gut of your company.
Blogs are proving to be cutting-edge P.R. instruments, in that
nowadays, not only marketing and P.R. execs have the clout to generate
buzz needed for business, but even anyone from a company, or even
clients themselves.
The maverick CEOs – Mark Cuban, Bob Liodice, Alan Meckler and Bob Lutz
– they all blog from the gut. They’re naturals. Not every exec is a
natural, but there’s always someone in the rank in file who is. The
moral of the
story is, find someone who will blog from the gut whether they are at the top of the corporate food chain or the bottom.
Bottomline is that blogging from the gut means involves more emotions
and personal affiliation. Perhaps the best people to blog for
buzz are those who are truly passionate about their craft/field, those
who have the flow, so to speak.
Starstruck? Let's go star tripping.
