<p>That’s true for this blog, which is a collaboration of bloggers. The idea was hatched for some very practical reasons.</p>
<ol>
<li>Some of our clients have never blogger before and the thought of jumping off that cliff and blogging two or three times a week is daunting.</li>
<li>We all are time challenged, and often don’t have the time to blog two or three times a week, no matter our experience or motivation.</li>
<li>We can build our audience more quickly. We have a number of points of view, so will attract a larger audience.</li>
<li>We can gain inspiration from someone’s blog post and start a theme for the week.</li>
<li>Six or Seven bloggers all promoting the same blog to will attract readers more quickly.</li>
<li>It’s a fun project!</li>
</ol>
<p>Stay tuned for how we named the blog ..</p>
