Today, Glenn Dixon and I visited the Common Grounds Coffeehouse in Delhi, LA. We worked with owner, Barbara Thomas, to launch their business blog.
Providing rural entrepreneurs information about how to establish a Web presence (e.g. blogs, websites, etc.) is part of the Rural Entrepreneurship Initiative within the Louisiana Delta Initiative.
Part I - Glenn Dixon demonstrates how to access free blogs that business owners can use to establish a Web presence.
Part II - Dr. Barnes demonstrates how to setup a free blog using Blogger.Com and how to administer the blog including design and structure of business content about products and services.
Accessing Global Markets is key for growing rural businesses in Louisiana. The Louisiana Delta Initiative is coordinated by the LSU AgCenter's Delta Rural Development Center (DRDC) located at Oak Grove, LA. For more information about the DRDC, visit http://www.lsuagcenter.com/drdc.
My kitchen at Common Grounds Coffee House has every little "gadget" needed for making tasks easier from start to finish. Now add one more, a blog page...thanks to James Barnes and Glenn Dixon. It's amazing what a couple cups of good coffee are worth; time, expertise, patience hands on experience, one on one tutorial, usuable knowledge and the confidence that I can indeed maintain and benefit from my new business blog page. Thank you, gentlemen, for caring about my business and for the passion you have for your own. Barbara Thomas
