The Best Blogs of 2011 – Think Splendid

This week we are continuing our ‘Best Blogs of 2011′ feature. This week’s blog, Think Splendid, is another absolute must for wedding and event professionals. The blog is written and owned by Liene Stevens who specializes in market development and strategy for the wedding industry and is an expert on the consumer behaviour of millennials, affluents and engaged couples. Below we have picked out our favourite 5 blogs posts of 2011 from this blog:

• Developing an Effective Publishing Strategy – this post looks at the importance of understanding what you want to gain from getting published on other industry blogs.
• The Future of Facebook and Your Wedding Business – a must read for those using Facebook as their primary advertising source. I was especially interested in the mention of Google possibly launching a Wedding Search Engine.
• Interview with Marcy Blum – I was lucky enough to see Marcy speak when I attended the Ideas Factory in Las Vegas earlier this year and here Liene interviews Marcy and asks some great and very relevant questions.
• Organizing Creativity – I love this post because it doesn’t matter how well organized you are there are always ways to improve what you do and new Apps to help you do it.
• Social Media Guidelines – Legal Considerations – there are many legalities regarding online and social media marketing and this blog post points out some of the thing you should be aware of.
