Atlanta, GA (PRWEB) December 30, 2005 -- Should you blog for business? Christopher Carter of ArmsteadsPorch.com says it is a must and an easy way to communicate with your customers. “We sell gifts and unique home products, but so do many other sites. We offer the difference of excellent service and the outlet for our customer to communicate with us on how we are doing”, says Christopher, webmaster and co-founder of ArmsteadsPorch.com. “I use the our company’s blog to do more than just sell our gift items, but also to entertain and offer a forum for our customers to respond and voice their own opinions.”
Armstead’s Blog (www.armsteadsporch.com/armsteadsblog.html) is the name of the blog site for ArmsteadsPorch.com and has resulted in many sales over its two year history. “I offer blog-only specials with coupon codes as well as sneak peaks to upcoming product offerings. Alongside, I will also offer my opinion on any number of current events, as well as exciting topics as where my underwear is made” offers Christopher. “I enjoy the creative outlet the blog allows and the chance to connect on a more personal level in an industry that is not known its personal touch.”
The blog is a two-way communication as well says Christopher, “I have had some interesting replies to some of my blogs, some that have been negative, but regardless it gives a chance for the reader and sometimes customer to have an open forum as well. This is also another reason why we must give the highest quality service since they have a forum to talk back.”
Blogging for business seems to be catching on, but those that began early are already saying that blogging is a not only a revenue source, but more importantly a public relations opportunity.
