A blog is an easy way for a business to market its wares and have conversations with its various publics, so business blogs are becoming popular with tiny businesses and with large corporations.
What do you need to know to get hired as a business blogger?
When you’re hired to blog for a business, you’re speaking for the company. Ideally, this means that you need to know something about the industry the business is involved in, or be prepared to learn.
Paradoxically, if you know nothing about the industry the business is in, you may be a better blogger than someone who knows the industry well, because you’ll be asking the same questions that the business’s customers ask.
