Don't get me wrong, "This" is great! Anybody who has used, read or posted to a blog understands the power of it. Millions of you out there are reading what I have to say right now. Although it is a little like playing for mosquitoes at an outdoor concert in the rain. I'm sure you’re out there, I just can't see you.
So how did we ever get along before blogging and social networking? Believe it or not, people actually used to go to trade shows and conventions. Just imagine, a room filled with potential customers all milling about looking for someone to talk to. The best part is that they are all there because they are interested in your industry. Heck, they may even be your competitor's customers. What a great opportunity to steal them away but how are you going to do that? Well to start with I guess you’ll have to be there so you can shake their hand. That's social. And while you are chatting they may introduce you to one of their associates. That's networking.
See how this works! It’s all very much like what we do online at a “Social Networking” site only we get to do the one thing that the internet has yet to provide: Shake hands.
Thanks very much for visiting today and come back soon for more good reasons to get out there and meet your customers.
