Debbie Weil

This document discusses the importance and benefits of blogging for retailers and companies. It notes that blogging helps companies engage in online conversations about their brand, build community around their products/services, and share valuable content without overt selling. Successful company blogs discussed include those from Zappos and the 800-CEO-Read blog. The document encourages companies to adopt a new mindset for blogging, focusing on delivering value to readers rather than traditional marketing. Blogs are positioned as one tool for building social media presence and online communities around a brand.

Blogging and E-retailing Debbie Weil Author of The Corporate Blogging Book Oct. 20, 2008
[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],Let’s talk about… Hey, ask questions!
Does your brand need a blog?
Fear Why aren’t more CEOs and companies blogging? ,[object Object],[object Object]
“ We shop, therefore we blog” Example on page 66 in my book
800-CEO-Read blog Another example on page 66 in my book
Zappos.com blogs
Zappos on Twitter
Zappos CEO on Twitter He has15,081 followers and he’s following 17,573 Twitterers
Why do these e-retail blogs work?
You want to be #1 in the online conversation about your brand
What else?
“It’s the content (and the writing), stupid” 1. Simplicity 2. Unexpectedness 3. Concreteness 4. Credibility 5. Emotion 6. Story - from Made to Stick
Good blogging is good writing and good writing is storytelling… Read Andrew Sullivan’s essay, “Why I Blog” in Nov. 2008 issue of The Atlantic Monthly http://www.theatlantic.com/doc/200811/andrew-sullivan-why-i-blog
To blog successfully, take off your marketing or PR hat and adopt a new mindset… Deliver value without selling
Let’s define community From Seth Godin’s new book, Tribes**: “A tribe is a group of people connected to one another, connected to a leader, and connected to an idea.” ** Highly recommended
Blogs are one piece of the social media puzzle How do you use these tools to create community?
Get to know the tools. You’ll be ahead of the game.
- One in 5 U.S. adults has no landline - 49% of young adults (18 – 29) are cell phone only users Harris Poll April 4, 2008 Mobile
Parting Thoughts
This is a revolution
Walking the Talk How many of you have your own blogs? How many of you are Twittering?
