a few additional points
> how many bloggers (per blog) needed?
> how are they recruited?
> how many resources do we need?
> what is and what shouldn’t be outsourced?

good practices and recommendations
> dos ….- long view, short term execution- up to date & fresh content- team rostering- invite partners- blog scheduling- 10-15 posts p.m.- varying types of posts
- news, exhibitions, video, radio clips, links, short blogs, market vision etc.
- constrained lists (10/7/5/3)- popular subjects- focus on your niche, talk to your
audience (build your community)- schematics work wonder- field experience

Page 55
good practices and recommendations
> don’ts - “infiltrating” social networks- writing too many visionary
articles and crash- selling your wares- bland, high level BS- 10-page articles (
installments)- b2c subjects (at all cost)- online squabbling or attacks- all rush judgements- diffamatary statements and
libel, mostly vis a vis partners- non personal images or that of
monuments (Big Ben etc.)- fretting because you don’t have
enough comments
