Last Thursday on July 29th, the Blen Corp Family hosted our first Happy Hour/Mixer of the year. We invited our friends, colleagues and most importantly our clients for a drink and boy did we have a good time. Here are some pics from our fun filled evening!
Thank you to all who attended and thanks to our new friends who came in an effort to get to know us, we look forward to a long lasting friendship. To see more pics from the Happy Hour please visit our Facebook Fan Page at www.facebook.com/blencorp
Social Media is not a fad
Social Media has become the buzz word of the 21st century. Everywhere you go, it’s there, whether it’s tweeting, twitpic-ing, facebooking, blogging, getting Linked In it’s there all the time… non-stop. Yet everyday I get in my inbox another white paper on why I should utilize social media tools. I wonder why are we still trying to convince the skeptics? How is it possible that there are businesses, organizations, and individuals who are, dare I say it, still afraid? To be perfectly honest, if you don’t want to do it, then don’t, but understand this, your competition they’re definitely tweeting and facebooking away, and listening to the very conversations youwant to be invited too. That’s exactly it though, we now live in a day and age, where we don’t need to wait for an invitation or a green light, we can go head on and discover what best fits us, while making friends and even potential clients. At the risk of sounding like I’m “pitching from the stage” give social media a try, after all it’s free. If you are seriously considering a social media campaign and would like to increase your visibility on the web, whether it’s for your individual, organizational, or business brand give us a shout, email us at hello@blencorp.com and we can talk about your options. Until next time check out the link above it’s a video on Social Media.

I told you guys, I’d be blogging about the challenges and the advantages of what this new (not so new) web 2.0 world had to offer. So with out further a due let me dive right in. As you might have read in the previous blog currently @blencorp we are working on our digital marketing campaign, one of our efforts include our Google Adwords campaign. As most of you know Adwords is an online ad management system run by Google, it allows you to create an ad, assign a dollar value to your ads and Google will post your ads on the Google Search Engine. The one thing we failed to create parallel to our Adword campaign was a custom landing page for each ad. Read the rest of this entry »
It’s not a day that goes by that you and I aren’t either on a social networking site, discovering a new social media tool or reading up on the latest SoMe trends. I wonder what we used to do before the Social Media revolution? Things seem like they’re not fast enough, efficient enough and there’s ALWAYS room for improvement.
In a day in age where we can’t afford to be disconnected, how do we prioritize what’s vital in our marketing campaigns? Well first of all, we @BLENCorp are dealing with this same challenge right now as we speak. We have set out to make 2010 the “digital age” for our marketing efforts. But make no mistake, we are not out to SPAM you or bombard you and only become apart of the noise. Read the rest of this entry »
