Today’s Monday Marketing Motivation was inspired by a gifted makeup artist, Cara Maccianti who shared this great Mashable blog on The Top Five Business Blogging Mistakes and How You Can Avoid Them (thanks Cara!)

Bodacious blog babe Josh Catone’s healthy web marketing advice is quoted for your spoonful of healthy marketing motivation:

“Blogging isn’t a sprint, it’s a marathon”

Blogging is not a short burst of effort, it a long distance medium!  Commit to blogging as a marketing investment to share information, educate, voice values and engage in ongoing social dialogue.  Bloggers don’t sprint, they run the distance.  They also blog because they CARE.  Blogging for bucks via sprint will not work.  Remember – Quick and dirty is always quick, but you always end up dirty. :-)

It’s not the tools that make marketing matter….it’s HOW we use the tools that makes all the difference.  A little blogging attitude adjustment to take on the distance for your organization is what will make a big difference.

Read the The Top Five Business Blogging Mistakes and How You Can Avoid Them article and commit to running the long run.
