2013 has arrived! I hope that each and every one of you has spent a nice, relaxing holiday season with your loved ones, and have come back to work ready to conquer this new year with ambition, motivation and passion – I know I sure have!
What you can expect from me in 2013
I’m not one for making new years resolutions, though I am one for planning. Planning my business and personal goals for the year, in order to make sure that I stay on target and reach my potential. Within my business goals lie, of course, my blog goals. In 2013 it’s important for me to continue to write and publish valuable posts that will take you even further in preparing and protecting your brand from the many online threats that loom about each and everyday.
So, if you’re wondering what you can expect from me here this year, the following is my 2013 blog promise to you:
My goal in 2013 is to provide you with the insight, tools and techniques that meet your brand’s very specific online crisis and online reputation management needs. I will continue to write 5 informative, entertaining and educational blog posts each week, on the topics of online crisis and issues management, and online reputation management.
In order to maximize on the things that matter to YOU, each month you can expect the following from my blog:
- A book review
- A monitoring tool review
- An interview with an inspiring professional or brand with a valuable story to share (podcast or video)
- Lessons from current crises and case studies
- A minimum of two Q&A Mondays a month
- Three insightful guest posts each month
- Friday roundups of awesome links worth your attention
- Publications, resources and tools created specifically for you
Please note: Each link to purchase will be an affiliate link, though all book reviews, monitoring tool reviews and guest posts are written freely with the goal of adding value and insight to your brand’s online crisis management planning. Under no circumstances do I accept payment of any kind for any books or monitoring tools reviewed on this blog or website.
I’m looking very forward to spending another year with you all here, and continuing our journey down the road of protecting your brand from online threats and attacks that risk jeopardizing your brand’s reputation and bottom-line.
