Do You Really Believe in What You Do?
"Mark Brimm, You have written a thought provoking piece. I will bookmark it and show it to a member of a new project we are starting. It started just because we all have an interest and passion about a hobby that will turn into a business. We also see a real need for this service and an increasing demand for this product.

An Open Letter to Marketers Who Abuse Social Media for Selfish Gain
"I understand the author of the piece, but I don't see a conflict between a rational self interest and market your services in a proper way. As an experienced purchaser I agree that marketers and salespeople have a tendency to abuse social media, but they are welcome to contact me and I could teach how to do it in the right way! They have to understand the trader principle."
