Blogging for business is much more than writing an update on the company or repurposing a newsletter. Not only can it improve your website’s overall performance but it can set you apart from your competition, positioning you as an organisation with knowledge, expertise and great service.
But what do you blog about? Who should author the content and how can you use content as a springboard to generating more leads and closing business?
