Hey there fellow small business owner. Does the weather have you stuck at home? Thinking of the 1.83x10^5 things you have to do at the office? Forget them all.
Write. Yes, write.
Your website is in desperate need of fresh content. Remember that awesome thing that happend at the end of last month? Your future customers want to hear about it and how you can make it happen for them, too. Sure, fresh writing will help with search engines, but you’re not writing for Google. You’re sharing a story that will get your next customer saying, “these are my kind of people.”
You don’t need to pen the next great American novel. You don’t even need to get to page 2 on a Word document. 200 or 300 words can be more than enough to share the awesome that is your business. So get cracking.
Wait. What? You can’t update your website from home? You need to call us. Now.
Imagine four years out of high school… one person is over $50,000 in debt, without experience, and hunting for a job. The other is well into a career making serious money—and his employer is footing the bill for education. College isn’t the golden road to success we were led to believe and new options are on the table.
Signalfire produced three web videos promoting manufacturing as an exciting career choice for middle school and high school students. The two-minute web videos were produced in conjunction with Walworth County Job Center, Walworth County Economic Development Alliance (WCEDA), Lake Geneva Economic Development Corporation (LGEDC), Alliant Energy, and Wisconsin’s Dream It! Do It! Program and with cooperation from Brunk Industries and Yunker of Lake Geneva.

I have a confession. I love the gold mining shows on TV. They appeal to me because it shows that a bit of vision, smart planning and hard work, tossed in with a touch of luck, can produce rewards. What I love even more is that the same logic that yields success for mining gold will yield success in content marketing. How? Let’s look at some principles of gold mining.

People are creating and storing shopping lists, scanning product bar codes to compare prices, and accessing coupons and promotions all on their phones and in your store.
