With that being said, don’t blog because your competitors are doing it. If the blog doesn’t communicate something useful to your audience it is a waste of your time. Ask yourself these questions before blogging; Does it provide the readers valuable information about your brand? Is it too informal and boring? Does it have a call to action?
Tell your brand’s authentic story through your blog. Customer’s testimonial are important piece of content for your blog. Because they are candid. They’re not made up by the marketers trying to promote their brand. They’re the words of people just like you.
