Mack Collier på The Viral Garden har en intressant post som är lite av en “spark i röven” för att börja kommunicera med bloggare - How to launch a successful blogger-outreach program in one day.

Det är ett litet schema som berättar hur du, timme-för-timme, gör för att nå ut till bloggare. Väl värt att läsa.

Följ då gärna också reglerna som tas upp i The The Lost Art of Conversation, och börjar du blogga, följ gärna dessa regler, ifrån Robert Scoble:

Our rule here (at Microsoft)? Don’t be stupid. :-) I call it be smart. But, it comes down to not pissing off your boss… and working to make sure you align your weblog with the image that the company is trying to project.

My suggestion for those who want to write a business blog:

1) Read tons of blogs first. I recommend that you read at least 50 blogs for two weeks before you start. Get an RSS Aggregator. That’s a must. Learn how to use Feedster, Pubsub, and Technorati.

2) Show your passion for your company and your products. If you aren’t passionate about your products or your company (in a good way) then it’s probably best that you don’t write a blog that’ll be identifiable with your company.

3) Help other people share their passion (interview workers who you notice staying late to do something “extra special”).

4) Try to answer any concerns bloggers might have. But, be careful. Work with PR teams and marketers in your company so you know what their stance is.

5) Take some risks. But know the consequences.”
