Blog Branding

If you’re blogging as part of a corporate strategy, you need to make sure you are consistent with your branding, otherwise you will lose credibility, preeminence and yes sales. As an Exponential Growth Strategist, I help people get extra-ordinary results by doing out-of-the-ordinary things leveraging exponential marketing strategies on the Internet as well as in business.

Blog Branding: How Important is it?

That depends. It depends on why you are blogging in the first place. If it’s just a fun thing you’re doing, then it doesn’t much matter, but if it’s to make money or reinforce a service or product you’re selling then it is VERY IMPORTANT.

Without spending heaps, you can get really cool stuff done by professional web designers like KillerCovers.com.

I guess the only point I want to make today is that if you want to be taken seriously, you just have to LOOK the part.

The reason I say this is because without proper branding, you’re going to lose people ONCE they get to your blog – within seconds, people get a feel for it and either stay or click away.

You only have seconds to make that FIRST impression.

Make sure it’s a good one!

Cool Websites: TimeTicker.com and TimeZoneConverter.com

I remember when I first moved to Australia and needed to call back ‘home’ how tedious it was to figure out timezones… Now the situation is reversed, Sydney is home with friends and clients all over the world, but the time zone challenge remains – Here is a GREAT website that INSTANTLY solves the challenge!

TimeTicker.com

Need to know INSTANTLY the time somewhere else in the world? Well, just go to www.timeticker.com, click on any area of the world voila! you get the local time right now

It’s also handy for figuring out that pesky “Greenwich Mean Time” you keep seeing on Bloomberg, BBC and CNN  but have no clue how it relates to your particular time zone.

TimeZoneConverter.com

www.TimeZoneConverter.com is ideal when you need to know the time it’s going to be IN THE FUTURE for your colleagues and friends overseas. It helps make sure that your conference calls and webinars can be attended by people at ‘reasonable times.
