Why are most corporate blogs mind numbing?
They're the products of committees.
Every post is the same.
Safe. Sanctioned. Sanitized.
No one owns the content, so it's uninspired and impassionate.
If you want to improve your corporate blog, find employees who love their work and ask them to contribute (if you can't, you have a bigger problem than a boring blog).
Give them one, simple instruction: You are not a committee.
Then get out of their way and watch what they do. You'll soon have a much better blog.
As Mark Hamill recently told the audience of Content Marketing World, "Follow your own inspiration. If you find something engaging, find a way to repurpose it through your own prism. Believe in yourself and trust your instincts."
You are not a committee.
