10 Reasons Why You Need Your Very Own HR Blog …And How To Get One Fast!
by Alan Collins
What ONE THING can you do right now to separate yourself from the rest of the pack in HR.
That’s easy.
Start your own HR blog.
Don’t know where to get started? Think it’s too tough? Or too time consuming? Then, read on.
I believe having your own HR blog is an absolute must if you want to take your HR career to the next level.
Your own blog allows you to showcase your expertise, gain instant credibility and enhance your HR career. I’ve experienced this personally with this blog and you can too with your very own blog.
It doesn’t matter where you are in your HR career right now. You can be a newbie just getting started in your first HR job. Or a 10-year HR veteran. Or an experienced specialist in compensation, labor relations, staffing or OD. Or an independent consultant, coach or contract professional. Or a vice president of HR.
It really doesn’t matter.
If you know the tricks of the trade, blogging can brand you and set you apart from the rest of the HR pack. And, the exposure you get from your blog allows you to be easily contacted by clients, potential employers, hiring managers, headhunters, and others who can help advance your HR career.
However, most HR folks get stopped dead in their tracks because they can’t overcome the obstacles that keep them from TAKING ACTION. Obstacles like:
- I don’t know what to blog about.
- I don’t know how to design a website.
- It seems so overwhelming and complicated.
- I don’t want my blog to look crummy compared to other HR blogs I’ve seen.
- I don’t have enough HR experience, skill or credibility.
- I might get fired if my company finds out I’m blogging.
- I’ve got a full-time HR day job and personal life…I don’t have enough time to blog.
- And there are 30 more obstacles I could add to this list.
And this is understandable.
There is information on blogging all over the internet — but it is overwhelming. And there is NOTHING out there specifically geared for HR professionals that tells them simply and clearly how to get started with their own HR blog.
And, there is definitely NOTHING available that teaches HR folks how to launch their own blog on the HR topic of THEIR CHOICE — in an area that they’re truly PASSIONATE about — and use this blog to enhance their HR career.
It’s true.
Absolutely nothing has been available…
...That is, until NOW!
