Do You Close Sales In Your Underwear?

Saturday, June 28th, 2008

The headline caught my attention: “Former Blog-Basher Patrick Goldstein is Blogging.” But what does that have to with underwear?

Mediabistro, a website for writers, recommends that he blog in his underwear.

So this got me thinking. Why not? As long as you aren’t video blogging, no one will know, right?

Yes, that’s true. No one may know, but you are writing your business blog so you should maintain a level of professionalism about it. One thing that attracts people to the idea of starting their own business at home is the temptation to work in their underwear. But, if truth be known, you will be much more productive if you don’t. Just because you are working at home doesn’t mean you aren’t working. You will be a lot more motivated to keep your mind on business if you dress for business. But if you must … underwear or not, just blog. It’s good for business and that’s why blog-haters are now changing their minds and joining our ranks.
