I can attest from experience that publishing a regular blog to properly showcase your brand value, even before you have it, is a most cost effective approach in time and money. For blogging to work, you need to do it consistently and frequently, at least once a week, or the value evaporates. Find potential partners. Populate your team.

I have to admit when I first walked through the doors of the Los Angeles Convention Center to attend Blog World I asked myself why I was wasting my time. Yet “another networking event”. That’s when it occurred to me how foolish I was to be diluting the value of any conference and especially this experience at Blog World.

Find events, conferences, mixers, networking groups, meet up groups who would find value in hearing your insights. In an excel sheet put the name of the event, link to the event, event organizer and event theme. Now study the event organizer. Blogs and Forums. Search Engine Optimization (SEO).

Because market is such a broad topic, I’m restricting these lessons to PR marketing (as opposed SEO, SEM, product marketing, etc.). I worked with an entrepreneur who was to appear at a startup networking event where he was to talk about his company’s plans. You’re reading their press releases or blog posts.

Evening events in Orange County require about 2 hours of round trip drive time. It has to be a pretty good event for it to be worth attending. Some events, like a recent Tech Coast Angel event at UCLA are really worth it. But some events you dont get quality attendees and then its a drag to drive that far.

By far the most popular post on this blog is 32 Questions Developers May Have Forgot to Ask a Startup Founder. While it’s a messy topic, I’m going to try to lay out some of the additional questions that developers should be asking a Startup Founder around the performance requirements of the application. Is SEO important?
