So I was on a webinar with a few hundred senior living professionals last week and they did a survey. You know those surveys that folks who host webinars (me included) love to include?
Well one of the questions was how many people had a senior living blog. Great question!
I almost spit my Green tea, Chai latte at my monitor when the results were posted….
Yep. It wasn’t pretty.
Take a guess at what the number was?
Think it was 50%? 30? 25%? 15%?
If you said 9% you would be correct. Is that the craziest thing you’ve ever heard considering this is 2016?
94% of the senior living companies on the call didn’t have a blog. How is that even possible??
So I decided it was time was again to share a few resources to help you get up and running with your blog if you fall in to that 94% category.
