I've seem so many of my intelligent clients lose 50 IQ points when I talk about technology and websites. It scares the hell out of them. I wish they could understand the power of the internet and the value of spending 30 minutes a day updating their website or blog.

All small business owners are busy. We need to make it as simple and easy as possible to use these social marketing tools to help them build their businesses.

Often, businesses need to walk before they’re ready to run with all this on-line marketing stuff.

Blogs are a good fit for nearly every business, yet lots of small businesses are slow to jump into blogging, or as we’ve seen with larger corporations, their blogging efforts are all wrong.

For businesses to really use blogs effectively, it’s gonna require a change in thinking.

Michael over at Remarkableblogger talks quite a bit about the thought, the strategy, that needs to take place in a business.
