One thing I have started to do is find myself on Twitter less and less with the people I followed as part of the initial enthusiasm for Twitter as a marketing tool because I, too, don't like being hammered all day long on my computer with ads. I resent people that just used a social networking site as a broadcasting network.<BR/><BR/>I no longer try and push sales like that. If people like me they might visit my page, otherwise, no problem! <BR/><BR/>As for my mother she insists on supporting my online efforts and refuses free (but she is good with trades!) because she is another artist and believes in getting proper exchange for her time. She wants the same for me.Longfellowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11673340218299422858noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-571238967019462780.post-33858576880720426712008-12-08T00:34:00.000-08:002008-12-08T00:34:00.000-08:00Here here!

I would never add her to my mailing list though, that would be odd to me.

We found each other because we share a common interest--selling our creations online. I think my online buddies would find it odd if suddenly, I stopped talking about what we have in common and started talking about potential Not-So-Common interests.<BR/>It's not a hard sell--my artistic community signed up to hear me talk business. <BR/>Just my .02<BR/>~SadieSadieLouhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14036756718890380045noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-571238967019462780.post-36463821215566493652008-12-07T08:15:00.000-08:002008-12-07T08:15:00.000-08:00Thank you very much.

As I said when this was discussed at Lollishops (my alter ego Whimsy and Stitches), I am all for accidental marketing; the aggressive guerilla tactics many practice leave a very bitter taste with me.scribblerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01138514025107836624noreply@blogger.com
