People think in stories and narratives – not in data and facts. Is your business taking advantage of the storytelling abilities online? In this audio series we cover the four “C’s” of building a business narrative: Content, Characters, Crowd, and Capitalize.

Here are five social media strategies recorded last week during my daily audio updates on Utterli. (Utterli is a free voice recording service that allows you to record a message using your cell phone and then post that message to the web). .

I have three quick tips to help you schedule your business blog posts. Listen to them here:

1) Post once per day.
Don’t try to be a super hero and post five times a day. One piece of content is good enough for a business blog.

2) Schedule your posts ahead of time.

No need to write each time you need to make a post. Block out large amount of time and use the auto posting feature in Wordpress, Blogger, or Typepad.

3) Spread the workload.
Get your entire company involved in creating blog content. It is a lot easier to have five people each post once per week than one person posting 5 times per week.
