I know you may be thinking that you don’t have time to write blogs and that there are more important things to do. That may be true, but the best thing about blogs is they don’t take much time to create because you’re just writing about what you already know!

One stop shop
Potential customers visit your Website to peruse (and purchase) your products. By adding a blog component, customers can also gain industry insight and stay up-to-date on what’s currently driving an industry from a provider’s point-of-view.
Address the issues
