Thank you for the pick up DK! My comment on Mack’s post apparently set me off on a pro-corporate-blog rant. It isn’t for everyone — and clearly, most companies firmly believe this because they do such a half-hearted job at it — but it’s a step forward.

I just left a note over at Church of the Customer on a related point — that companies need to adopt a ‘blogging culture’ before they can adopt a ‘vlogging culture’. Brands communicating with customers via video on their own (or other) sites, on a systematic basis, without overly glossy production value… like living in the future, isn’t it?

Thanks again –

You bet, Stephen! I used to call Corporate Blogging Clogging because so many companies wanted to abuse it for marketing spin. I’m honestly weary of companies who do not blog and avoid the ones that do it terribly.

Once companies realize that transparency is more important than perfection, they’ll recognize the power of blogging to create relationships with their customers and prospects. And that, of course, will lead to profitability!

good one DK,

agree with you majority of today’s businesses are yet to understand the power of blogging, engaging with customers and understand what it can do for them.

clogging yes the future looks promising
