Topic: Business Basics – Blogging
This topic focuses on the business benefits of maintaining a blog to enhance communication with customers and prospects and become a part of a larger community interested in a particular issue. You will discuss different types and means of communication, be introduced to the concept and characteristics of Web 2.0, and specifically blogs and the advantages they might bring to a small business as a low-cost means of multidirectional communication. Attendees will learn how to add different types of content and media to the blog, practice tailoring graphics to match your company image and gain an understanding of what is meant by blogging management and maintenance. You will leave the class knowing not only how to start a blog but also how to promote it and keep it alive to maximize the benefits for your business.

This program features “hands on” use of computer station, provided through a donation by Hewlett-Packard Corporation, and focuses on the business problem rather than the software. All software used in the program is free, open-source programs that students can use from home or with their small business.
