What should I blog about?

By Tara Ingalls, owner Tingalls Graphic Design, LLC

I'm often asked by clients what I blog, tweet and post about in social media. Here's a short list we refer to on a daily basis:

• support your clients! post news clips or accolades of your clients

• share industry tips & tricks; be the first to comment on a new technique

• introduce new employees or promotions in your company

• help others by posting a simple solution to a common problem

• note customer's FAQs

• boast your company's successes, milestones, vision, mission

• share client testimonials; When you say it about yourself it's bragging, when they say it about you, it's proof!

• create original thoughts on industry trends- link to articles, videos, or content in your industry

• engage your audience by posting a "question of the day"

• remind people how your different from your competition

• give referrals; connect your clients to each other

• post good deeds; community service

• say thank youI hope this was helpful in generating at least one or two new ideas.
