Common Sense PR Blog Part of b5 Media

A while back I announced that I'd be making some blog changes.  The day has arrived.

Drop by Common Sense PR and let me know what you think.

At the time I decided to launch a new blog, Jeremy Wright announced that blogging network b5 Media was looking for writers for a planned business channel.  I sent b5's Douglas Hanna a proposal.  The next thing I knew I was writing posts for the blog-to-be.

I'll be writing primarily for business managers and communicators.  I've found that quite often managers don't know how to get the most out of public relations, and communicators don't know how to get buy-in to communications plans.

Yes, there will be ads.  Yes, they will sometimes get in the way of the paragraph you are trying to read and they may do annoying things to attract your attention.  I'll try to keep the writing and visuals exciting enough to get you past the distractions.  Thanks to ad revenue, I may be able to get to some more conferences and events in the future.

For people who subscribe to feeds, the blog will have a full text feed available, so you don't have to leave the comfort of your feed reader.

Please drop by, subscribe, and let me know what you like and don't like.  Check out some of the other business blogs on b5.  I'm pretty excited about the possibilities for creating an information nexus for the business reader.

Thanks to my editor Douglas, the designer Scott, CEO Jeremy, and all the bloggers at b5 who have made me welcome.  It's been hard keeping this under wraps until launch day (everyone I told about this -- don't tell Jeremy I was a bad boy).

Update:  I realized I didn't mention anything about Mutually Inclusive PR.  This blog will continue, with a bit less emphasis on public relations/communications. I'll be migrating the content to a new server soon at www.ericeggertson.com, but will keep posts active on this Typad server for a while, to keep the links from breaking.
