		<description>Whoa. However, it is a serious post. I am happy to have found your blog, I&#039;m so tired of reading garbage from people who have really nothing to say, as the proverb &quot;A wise man speaks because they have something to say, a fool speaks because that they have something to say .... &quot;Anyway - decided, marketing is not evil. But there is an alarming trend in modern, especially with affiliate marketing and other sectors where I honestly think that people of what they sell. They just want money. We must fight!

		<description>Pure advertising campaigns are why so many people hate advertising and advertisers. They don&#039;t see that we benefit when we know which businesses are worth patronizing and which products are quality. 

I have got to get with you about Facebook.

		<description>Hi Gail
I came over to this article after your recommendation from a recent post you did that I commented on. I have bookmarked this page as so much information for this newbie to take in.  I am trying to put everything into place that is recommended but sometimes I am getting information overload, hence the bookmarking.  I am still building up my blog slowly and last week after my laptop crashed thought I would see a dip in traffic as couldn&#039;t publish posts or visit blogs to comment.  Back on line now and ystdy several people stumbled me and I saw a huge spike (for me anyway) in my traffic.  I don&#039;t even understand the stumble thing but it sure works.
After reading this post I realise why you can help so many people with their small business.  Not only are you passionate about it; you also are very experienced techie who knows what she is talking about.
I am so blessed to have found your site.  Also want to say thanks for your link to my site.  I don&#039;t know how to do that yet either but saw you have linked to mine in my dashboard info.  Thankyou so much.
BTW  I always buy from small business first and don&#039;t like dealing with the multinationals unless I really have to.  Supporting local business is a priority even though we have not had the economic downturn in Australia that the US has had recently.  Our mining companies have kept us afloat here.

		<description>Dennisyu! You are so correct. I become quite frustrated when I see business focus on one aspect as if this was the reason for existence and the total sum of its rise or fall. A holistic approach that incorporates all aspects of the business, including the whole of business recognizing that they are responsible for the marketing, promotion and service levels for their particular work area. Furthermore some of the more in tuned business also recognized that their is internal relationships that must be approached in the same manner as that of the traditional customer.</description>

		<description>I used to frown when I hear the word Marketing. I associate it with people who are persuasive to the point of harassment. My perception turned 180 degrees. Marketing people are great assets to companies because they are one of the key people to keep the company alive.</description>

		<description>It has been a long time since &quot;brochure-ware&quot; Web sites were the norm, but many businesses are still using them. As the economy continues to decline only those who really start understanding how to reach out to new customers are likely to survive. There is no time to waste.
