Speed Blogging: Post in Under 20 Minutes
Since one of the most common complaints among our clients is "I don't have enough time to blog!" I'm experimenting with speed blogging this week. Everything I post will be done in under 30 minutes, to prove it can be done. (This post will be done in under 20 minutes because I want to get out the door and onto the tennis courts...!)
How to do this:
- Keep a notepad open and when you have an idea for post, write down the main points
- Keep a list of links that are relevant to the post, any other sites, places you visited where the topic was discussed, books you read, etc.
- Post directly into your blogging software, link, and save as a draft.
- Keep lots of royalty free images in picture folders for the topics you usually write about.
- Insert an appropriate photo, edit the post, save, and publish now.
Time elapsed since starting this post: 8 minutes.
Who says they don't have time to write on their business blog? For me, it's the fastest marketing tool I've every used. Heck, I even had time to start a load of wash so I'll have clean socks on the courts...
