It can be a struggle building a business…especially if you're not a marketing whiz…

We know, because we struggled too.

We're The Blog Squad - I'm Patsi Krakoff, (on the left), and my partner is Denise Wakeman.

We've been teaching the art and science of blogging to authors, speakers and entrepreneurs for several years now, but it wasn't until we took the time and trouble to properly brand ourselves that the lid blew off our business!

As so often happens in business, one small tactical change opened the floodgates to massive change for better or worse. In our case it was for better…much better!

After Denise and I got over our initial shock and delight, we suddenly realized that many - if not most - authors, speakers and professionals were unbranded…and working way too hard for the slim-pickins results.

Why bringing blogging and branding together
can result in your most powerful marketing tactic ever

Because blogging is part of the Web 2.0 revolution that's changing how everyone markets and communicates - from the Fortune 500 conglomerate to the individual freelancer - Denise and I knew that teaching small business owners how to do it right could really help them boost their business.

But we also witnessed a disturbing reality.

Many of the authors, speakers and entrepreneurs we talked with at conferences and on teleseminars complained that for all the money they'd spent and all the hard work they'd done polishing their USPs, following the directions of "gurus," optimizing their web sites, etcetera etcetera…nothing was really working.

On deeper analysis, we saw that overwhelmingly, these same entrepreneurs were "brandless." They might have a USP, but they had failed to make it apparent to the world, and therefore they stood for nothing against a backdrop of competition that did stand for something. No wonder they were struggling!

Because of our own experience, Denise and I knew we had found a "missing link" in most professional's marketing: proper branding.

And when combined with the world's newest and most powerful marketing tool - the blog - the results could be phenomenal. After all, we were living proof! When we discovered the power of blogs and branded our business, we grew our list of prospects ten-fold and tripled our revenues in two years.

Your brand and your blog - a true marketing miracle!

There's no denying that the blog is changing the way our world operates. Even governments are acknowledging that bloggers and the blogosphere are forces to be reckoned with!

Bob Lutz, Vice Chairman of General Motors, writes a public corporate blog and is one of a rapidly growing number of high-powered CEOs who recognize that blogs are a necessity in today's marketing environment.

Add Amazon, Boeing, Cisco, Cox Communications, Hewlett-Packard, Sprint, Xerox, Texas Instruments, and many other goliaths to the list of bloggers who (according to Technorati™) put up an estimated 120,000 new blogs every single day!

Many of these are small businesses...your competitors...and those who brand have a big leg up over those who don't.

Think of someone you know who has a solid, identifiable brand...and then think of someone you know who doesn't. Who would you rather do business with?

As any successful company or entrepreneur will tell you, success doesn't happen without a brand! (Where would Mark Victor Hansen and Jack L. Canfield be without "Chicken Soup for the Soul"?)

By now it should be clear to you why branding and blogging are such a potent combination for the small business pro, so I'll get to the point...

We're bringing branding and blogging experts together
to show you how to experience
truly exponential business growth

Meet Ruth Klein, who came to us with the idea of creating a teleseminar series sharing what we know about the power of branding and blogging.

Widely known as the De-stress Diva (thanks to her branding), Ruth convinced us that together, we could help struggling small business owners make an incredible difference to their bottom line…and perhaps prevent some from going out of business.

Consider the facts:

Fact: Approximately 60% of new businesses never make a profit, and go out of business in the first year

Fact: 9 out of 10 professionals don't have a clearly defined brand and aren't communicating well to a targeted audience of potential client

Fact: Thousands of business blogs are set up everyday, yet only a few of them succeed; those that do have mastered both branding and blogging

Fact: Branding and blogging are essential marketing tools online and increasingly, offline.

Freelancers and business owners are reporting that even people they meet in person now ask for their blog address to find out more about them.

Ruth Klein is the branding expert who can teach you everything you need to know in order to create your perfect, consistent, and powerful brand. She's published three books, been interviewed on TV and radio, in The Wall Street Journal, Readers' Digest and "O" Magazine.
 

And for building a blog that gets massively noticed by the search engines, other bloggers, the media, and your prospects and customers, The Blog Squad is your answer.

People pretty much know who we are, Denise and I...what business we're in, and what we can do for them (thanks to our branding).
 

Through our blogs, we reinforce our message of how to harness the world's best marketing tool, a business blog, to attract, sell and profit online.

Let us show you how to blend traditional marketing (branding) with new marketing (blogging) to take advantage of an unprecedented opportunity.
