It’s the 20th of the month, and you haven’t sent out your monthly newsletter yet. You panic and eat half a package of the new Candy Corn Oreos, and while they’re delicious, you don’t feel any better and you still have to find content for your email.

This was a fantastic read! I agree, blogging definitely makes coming up with email content much easier. I email my list 3x's a week and I normally release blog posts 2x's a week. This is perfect for the content that email my subscribers. I just email the my 2 blog update's, and the 3rd email is usually a link roundup of other relevant valuable blog posts I've come across for the week. BAM! Content done! :)

Thanks for sharing this post!

Marci, just a note incase you're reading this. I tried to leave you a comment on your site but it says there is an error that I need to fill in name and email. I did that twice and got the error twice. Just thought I'd let you know.

Thanks for letting us know, Denise. I'll look into that. We've been doing some clean-up on the site lately so it's possible you just hit us at an in between moment. Again, thanks for the comment and for the heads up!

Hi Marci,

I love your style of writing - it's open, honest and informative. That's the first thing that struck me as I read about blogging. I've read and written on blogging, given talks on blogging and what I love about it is that everytime I read an article on blogging, I read something new.

I've been remiss of blogging these days myself so thanks to your article, I've written a list of articles that I'll start pulling together. Consistency is key, I completely agree.

Thanks for the reminders for us regular bloggers and great information for newbies.

Take care,

Denise

Denise, thank you so much for the positive comments. I am new to blogging (just 7 months or so), so the positives are very fresh to me. I've become a huge fan of blogging as a marketing tool. I'd love to see a couple of your articles.

Love the detail this went into. Most people just say give quality content and leave it at that. Becoming a trusted source is the most valuable but also the hardest.

The detail that Marci put into the post is my favorite part as well, Mark. I'm with you - it's not often you find articles with actionable advice. Thanks for the comment and for reading!
