My magic combination has been Facebook and LinkedIn. It’s those semi-regular updates about projects that have resulted in some great work for me. You never know who’s watching!

So Blogger isn’t the only one who hasn’t caught up. ;o)

Lori, leaving a sort of open invitation to clients on your social networking page is a good idea. I’ll keep it in mind… If I ever get into that kind of thing. I tried MySpace a while back and was disappointed, so I’m admittedly skeptical about social networking as anything other than a big black hole for my time.

We Brits are a bit crap at this sort of thing but I like the idea of reminding the world what I’ve bee writing about lately – and therefore can write about.

I couldn’t see a “Tweet this” button on the article, which I thought was a bit ironic, given that it was about social media. I’m going to anyway – it’s perfect for sharing.

I’m still not that into social networking. Just not my thing!

However, when my articles are published online, I include a link on my Facebook page, which I think reminds clients that I’m here and constantly working.

I’ve been thinking of doing the same on LinkedIn. Just haven’t take the time. Your post is a good reminder that I need to do it.

It is true – not all bloggers are writers, even if some of them think they are. LOL Mostly I follow great people who are also great writers. They’re inspiring.

Very interesting article. Just ask is clearly what most people want you to do. Just ask for the sale, is my favorite. In a lot of cases my accounts seem to like for me to “just ask” for payment on invoice. 🙂 I think the list goes on and on.

Here’s a note of thought: Having a blog does make one a “writer”. However, having a blog does not mean one knows how to “write”. Thanks for being a writer and for knowing how to write! I enjoy reading your blog because your words flow with what I call: logical ease! Again, thanks.
