Your Baby Blog Might Make Baby Messes

 Revisiting (adapted from original post on 12/18/06):
Congratulations, It’s a Blog

So you have a new blog (or other social media play) for you, your company or your school.
Congratulations.

Treat it with care and love – because it might make a
mess before it gets its legs. Be patient.

When a baby drools, burps, potties or makes other messes, we don’t throw them in a corner and forget about it. The young child will probably cry, moan, learn to lie, go off to
school and lose their new jacket – do we trade it in for a new model? 

They can keep  us awake at night, altering our daily schedule just a bit   Do we throw the baby in a closet and ignore it?

You’re newborn blog won’t be perfect either. Might need to be okay with crap for a bit. You might need to alter your schedule too.  Be Patient. Be passionate in your work, be inviting to your audience, be patient with your efforts. Watch it grow.

You’ll be proud of the results if you endure.
