I am doing some research on corporate blogging for a new client and came across the following very good article from Amy Gahran. Amy makes many fine points- some more obvious than others.
I am discovering that it takes a special organization to lower their guard, enforce transparency and understand that the Internet is an interactive (vs broadcast) medium.
Among the tips that Amy offers up:
Don’t overlook the “obvious”
Tell stories
Keep track of internal discussions
Don’t just write about your organization
Be open to suggestions from anyone
