Holy Blogging Bonfire, Batman! It’s another Blogging Council around the campfire!

BatChiefRobin: What are we going to do Batman? Blogging has become so popular they are setting up another Council!

Batman: Yes, Robin we underestimate the attraction of easy SEO and tribe marketing that blog engines can provide for small business and solopreneurs. Having a club where they practice only makes them stronger!

Robin: Holy Google search, Batman! How will we ever catch up?

Batman: You forget Robin we have the Bat-Computer on our side. Remember, the Bruce Wayne Foundation would be nowhere if it wasn’t for our social media marketing campaign.

Robin: Gosh Batman, you’re right. What would we have done if we had not taken that social media marketing class from lept Like A Blog?

Batman: Exactly right Robin, the Wayne Foundation is now secure and stable so we can continue our crimefighting. Let’s swoop in and greet the new council with open arms. Remember I am an honorary Chief. We’ll check in with our blood brother Chief Blogger and get the details of the new Council.

Robin: Maybe we should join to keep our marketing skills honed.

Batman: Good thinking, Robin. Make sure the Bat-top is loaded in the Batmobile. I see the first session is Tuesday, September 6 at 3:30 pm. Make sure Alfred gets it in the bat-calendar.

Robin: What should I tell Alfred about it?

Batman: Tell him to go to this batlink (Batman passes a QR code from his Batphone to Robin’s)

Announcer: Will Batman publish his post?

Will Robin comment?

Will Chief Blogger accept them into the new Council?

Stay tuned next week, same time, same bat channel. In the meantime you can check out the Tuesday Tribe Media Marketing Club by clicking here.

Holy Halley’s Comet Batman, it’s the Bat Signal Beacon

Narrator: On a seemingly quiet night in the seemingly quiet shadows…

Robin: Look, Batman! It’s the Bat Signal Beam!

Batman: Yes, Robin, something diabolical is at hand. The Commissioner knows we have our Social Media Marketing Framework in place. If he needs help he will tweet us.

Robin: But, Batman, we went through the class but remember? The Commissioner was called away. Maybe he doesn’t know how to tweet.

Batman: Robin, right you are, how did I overlook that. Whatever the situation, we must proceed cautiously! When we meet up with the commissioner again let’s make sure he signs up for the next series of classes from lept Like A Blog.

Robin: I’ll put the Twitter for Dummies in the bat belt just in case he needs a crash course.

Batman: Good thinking Robin, but the commissioner needs the full training course. We can’t have this kind of thing happen again. To the Batmobile!

Narrator: Will Batman and Robin fall into the trap of a sinister arch enemy? Will Robin donate his copy of Twitter for Dummies to the library? Will the commissioner sign up for this round of classes? Find out at next week’s classes at lept Like A Blog.

“Yes, Robin. You can now take the Social Media Marketing Framework class from lept Like A Blog in two weeks instead of four!”

“No time for that now, Robin, we have to get through!”

“Holy Hold Button! Any answer, Batman? Will we be able to get into the YouTube class?”

“Yes, Robin, we are in luck, thanks to our superior technology. I feel sorry for those less fortunate who may miss out on a grand opportunity to catch the next YouTube class starting this week (June 9).”

Announcer: “Will Robin be able to run the camera?” “Will Batman bring his collection of stuffed bats to make his YouTube video?” “Will Alfred get his finger caught in the clap board?” Find the answer to these and other bat-teries of questions at the next YouTube class starting June 9.

                        SCENE

        The Bat Cave

Batman: “Yes Robin, Apis Videre, a highly intelligent, busy marketer that knows the value of a moving picture is worth a thousand words a thousand fold.”

Robin: “Sounds like a riddle to me.”

Batman:”Quite correct Robin, but don’t be fooled by his tricky nature.”

Robin:”What should we do Batman?”

Batman:”I’m afraid Robin, there is little we can do. This little stinger is just too much for our Bat brains to handle”

Robin:”The next thing you know he will be sporting QR codes on his wings!!”

Batman:”Robin! That’s it! Yes, you better load the QR scanner app into the Bat-phone. You very well have found our only chance…”
