I wrote the title of this article a little ‘tongue in cheek’ because I think so many therapists and coaches are yet to tap into the amazing potential that blogging can offer for your business.
Many therapists and coaches I speak to give a variety of reasons as to why they are not blogging, such as
• I don’t have a blog
• I don’t have time
• I don’t know what to write about
• I’m worried my peers will judge me
to name a few…
I’d like to address these objections one by one.
1. I don’t have a blog
Well really, this is no excuse anymore because the installation of a blogging platform such as WordPress is so easy and cheap. If you’re not sure how to get started, either outsource the installation of the blog to a savvy teenager, or someone on oDesk.com or elance.com
