Case Study

Winning Clients Through Great Blogs

Can blogs help you bring in business?  Sure they can.
Franki's blog on style and fashion is called LifeInAVentiCup.  In addition to getting her interviews and products from nationally known luxury brands, LifeInAVenticup has made a major impact on our business.  The design and writing are first class, and a recent client told us the reason they hired us was because our personal blog proved we "got it" when it came to luxury products.
That client doubled our revenues for the year in just three months.
Note this was not a business blog, but just a labor of love that yields business results.  Franki worked on that blog for two years as a hobby, but this year, it paid off in a way that would have justified full time labor on the project.

3. Blogging can get you in trouble. Not only you but your teachers mights have blogs to so if you post something bad about them, you might get into trouble.

4. Some people take blogging as “a personal journal of their life". But they do not realise that their blog can be seen by everyone. So it puts them at risk of predators.
