You may have noticed that my blogs have been displaying banners promoting a service called Blog4999.com. Blog4999 is the business of professional blogger, Jim Kukral, and as usual I like to find out a bit about the people that sponsor my blogs so I decided to ask Jim a few questions.
First a quick rundown of who Jim is -
I’ve been blogging since 2001, and have written, created and/or participated in over 30 blogs since that time. Some personal, most professional, and more importantly, all blogs focused on promoting either my own career or the various businesses I have been part of.
I am currently the publisher of ReveNews.com, the industry’s most widely respected group-blog focusing on the billion dollar online marketing industry. I manage and interact with over 30 of today’s top CEO’s, web gurus, and general web-trepreneurs who are icons of the industry, covering topics such as affiliate marketing, blogging, search engine marketing and more.
What marketing techniques have worked best promote your business?
Blogs4999 is brand new, but I plan to strictly use AdWords and blogs to push this one because of the cost and specific niche reach.
How you came up with the idea for your business blog offering?
It’s really all about price. Small businesses can’t afford to lay out 3-5k for a blog, they have much more important things to spend money on. I understand two main things about successful blogging and small businesses. #1, I understand how a good blog CAN make a difference for your business or career, if it’s done right. And #2, I understand that most small businesses aren’t made of money.
What makes it different from all the other hosted blog solutions?
It’s completely unique for two reasons. 1. I actually strategize, plan, build and host your blog, and train you. You really have to do nothing more except answer some questions. My strategy will tell you all you need to know about how you’re going to do it successfully, then set you up, then point you on the way to success. #2 reason it’s different. The price is only $999. There is not a blog consultant out there who will even do just the strategy for you for less than 2-4k. I’m offering it all, for one low price.
How did you get into blogging?
I’ve been blogging since 2001. An employee of mine at the time told me about his blog. I was intrigued because of one major thing. I loved the fact you could instantly publish. It removed the gatekeepers. It allowed anyone to push their thoughts online and share them. After a few years, I realized you could use this medium as a business, so I wrote an ebook called ‘Blogs To Riches’ in 2003, but it was way ahead of it’s time.
Thanks Jim and good luck with your business!
