How he turned blogging into his business
Imagine you are working with new client and during your discovery meeting the business owner tells you they want to work with you to fix up their website, especially the area for to be used for blog posts.
The business owner shares their commitment to writing weekly content to increase awareness about their new product line. The content will be shared on their website, in an new email newsletter and on social media channels. You set up a nice space for the new content but after a few weeks you check back to find that nothing has been added beyond the original set of articles provided to you at the start of the project.
In a conversation with the business owner you find out that other pressing issues came up which diverted attention from creating the weekly articles.
In this Matt Report interview, Dayne Shuda of Ghost Blog Writers shares how his company helps business owners maintain their commitment to sharing regular updates with their target market. He takes a long term view on creating regular blog content for his clients. Dayne focuses his efforts into working with clients who want regular content created that can be used in various marketing channels but don’t have the resources to do it in-house.
