You can be a Gran and Grandad and still be ahead of the game.</p><p>I have a background in marketing, have been blogging for just over three years This year I will be 62. My two sons age 32 and 29 don't blog. I teach referral skills to business people of all ages, working with BNI and online with Ecademy and I find that 60+% of my audience are only just waking up to blogs and their power to raise an individuals visibility ad credibility.</p><p>My current task is to explain Twitter, but thanks to David, I at least have a manual I don't have to spend time writing.</p>Paul CleggMon, 02 Feb 2009 14:57:28 -0000http://www.blogmarketingacademy.com/how-to-explain-blogging-to-granny/#comment-1173131<p>I recently experienced this when I visited my parents who I hadn't seen in a few years. Back then I had one blog and it was more of a hobby blog. But Now I blog several places, run a community for bloggers, and spend my time reading blogs. This was hard for them to get. They are both businessmen/women though so I brought it to their level.</p>ses5909Sat, 13 Oct 2007 13:10:45 -0000
