I'm not sure what your intent is, but this might be viewed as web spam - by the blog sites, your customers and search engines - to your organisation's detriment. You might also want to check the recent legislation concerning fake profiles and identities online:

Generally, you only want one (honest) instance of particular content, and many links to this from elsewhere.

We're just exploring the issue of selling via social media after an interesting test by an experienced telesales manager. Don't think we've got as far as multiple blogging yet, but are unearthing some interesting aspects and related tools.
Try http://www.modernselling.com/forum/messages.aspx?TopicID=129.
As with all forms of selling (as opposed to marketing/advertising) though, I think Colin's point is well made, in that impersonal, advertising-style, content is going to be akin to those automated/recorded/scripted phone calls, or Dear Neil letters from Readers Digest and the like. Only 0.01% are going to welcome and respond to your message and you could well be annoying the remaining 99.99% - unless you're very careful. So you might well want to manage a multiple blog presence effectively, but not to the point of "fly-posting".
