so why blogs...in a nutshell
or the “you can miss all the other slides out
1. SEO - create relevant, timely and contextual content for readers AND search engines
     1. Frequency
     2. Tags/Keywords
     3. Sub-domain
     4. Links
     5. Multimedia

2. Direct - there’s no PR fluff or advertising in the way
3. Aggregates - all your social channels
4. Brand Building - they provide a much more effective way to develop a relationship with
   customer
5. Competitive Differentiation - in many cases, your competitor will NOT be doing it, even now
6. Relational Marketing - continual, open dialogue engenders trust
7. Exploit Niches - publishing relevant content is often quicker and easier than posting News
   via a CMS
8. Reputation Management - using the tools of the detractors allows a timely response to
   happen
9. Low cost - blogs are NOT expensive to build/design

hearing and listening are very different
create relevant, timely content
moderation
no different to a call-centre script
