Kimberly-Clark Has A New Kleenex Blog

Add another Fortune 500 company to the corporate blogging list: Kimberly-Clark, owner of Kleenex, has a new blog called Let It Out.  The blog coincides with a new Let It Out marketing campaign by Kleenex.

So brand new it doesn't have a feed yet!  The design is awkward and there's only one post still, but let's give it some time to mature.  (Although I think Bill Green has a good question: "Why are blogs still launched the day the campaign is?")

Gary Bourgeault thinks the Kleenex marketers have done things halfway right so far - they now need to make it easy for all of us to really "let it out" at their new blog and site.

I'll add the Let It Out blog to the Fortune 500 Blog Project

I agree – my feeling is that they've rushed this to launch to coincide with the traditional campaign. Not necessary at all. I'd rather see them wait and get it done correctly off the bat.

To call it awkward is really being kind. I agree with Mark above, this has old school PR firm written all over it.

Though it does interest me for one reason. Other than with environmentalists, how often do you see people get passionate or upset about paper products? Almost never.

Thanks for this article. By now, this blog looks very professional. We have href="http://www.twenteverzekeringen.nl">learned a lot from them.
