I had previously mentioned how traditional businesses could use blogs. Small Business Trends now reports that one in ten small businesses in the US are planning on using blogs in their marketing strategy.
As a micro-business, I have no doubt about the value of blogging, especially for free-agents. Most business blogs seem to be in IT-intensive fields but they can also work for more traditional businesses. Two examples – Landfair Furniture in Oregon and The Lincoln Sign Company .
Like e-mail, I think that blogs will become ubiquitous in the near future as the Early Adopters have already moved to blogs.
Are there other examples of more traditional small businesses using blogs? I know about the consultants, writers and techies, but what about companies with less than 100 employees who are blogging in order to have real conversations with people?
