February 1st – Blogtipping

Hat Tip to Easton Ellsworth, the contagion that started BlogTipping.

Sara_1Blogtip #1: Sara Scott
Author: Three guesses and the last 2 don’t count:-)

Lovin’ it for:

  • Great start! Sara launched her blog…what…a week ago? Already she’s commenting on other sites and has a growing community
  • Good use of imagerey to impact the story.
  • Transparency. Admitting she’s new and hungry to learn is a great start. We’ve all been (and are still) in the same space there.

Tippin’ it for:

  • Keep the rhythm going. Think of each trial and test as a stepping stone to improvement. I’m excited to watch your efforts grow and elated you’re adding your voice to the conversations

Maria BlogTip #2: The Tenacious Marketer
Author: Maria Lopez

Lovin’ it for:

  • Love the title! Think Maria will take a stand on certain items? This should be fun to watch
  • Use of multiple tools. Already seeing video, audio (Maria left a great message here earlier) and other cool tools
  • Already a multi-blogger (also at Follow that Lemming) Not sure if it’s a form of A/B testing or if it’s going to be two distintive sites…but you have my attention
  • A spirit of experimentation. I can almost sense that Maria lives by a "Mistakes are Tuition" attitude

Tippin’ it for:

  • Link out to other blogs when relevant. This will not only extend the conversation out, but invite those authors in. Remember Blog Posting Mantra # 4

ConnieBlogTip #3: Blog @bilities
Author: Connie Reese, Mike Chapman, Melissa Anthony

Lovin’ it for:

  • The tagline: Helping companies and their stakeholders join the global conversation. Amen!
  • Team is the Theme: Three busy bloggers working together in engaging conversation.
  • Generous linkage out, extending the conversation to other bright spots

Tippin’ it for:

  • Did I miss it, or is there not a link from the blog to the company site (anthonyBarnum PR)?

Find Your Social Media ROI

I hear it from a lot of business owners: “Where is the ROI with all this Social Media?“ If this is a question you ask yourself, maybe we should work together a bit more. We can work together solo, or via a professional learning community. Find and increase your ROI. There is a “there” there.

    Many thanks for the blogtip, Mike! It is much appreciated. There is a link to our company site on the blog; it’s under that RSS icon we hope everyone will click. :-)
    This is a great idea of pointing to new voices, and I pledge to start some blogtipping of my own.

    Mike, this is a great idea. I’ve only been watching your blog a few weeks so I didn’t see that you did this monthly. Great idea. Thanks.

  • http://thetenaciousmarketer.blogspot.com/ Maria Lopez

    Wow! Thank you for tipping your hat my way. Greatly appreciated! I’m still working on the overall tone and content for both sites. As the saying goes, some things get better with age. Thanks again!
