I love the quote by JD Rucker! It definitely confirms my belief that when it comes to my blog, myspace, facebook, etc, they should be great resources of information within my industry. When I first joined the online community, I looked at online networking, marketing, and promotions as a way to bring sales in. It's not to say that sales won't happen, but what I ended up doing was neglecting the creative process, spending my time badly, having the notion that the more time I spend online the more sales will come. But that is not true. I ended up spending all my time online. To me, every link, every comment, every forum, post was a sales. When really it's all about just being visual and doing my part. My part means that whatever social networking community I am a part, I must do what it calls me to do. For instance. I just joined indiepulic. I like it a lot, very easy to navigate. It doesn't take long to upload 8 new photos a day, leave comments in my groups, find a a few new friends to add, post a blog. After 20 minutes I am off Indiepulblic and off to the next thing. I also agree with using creative phrases when tweeting. I am un-following people as well. It has to be interesting enough for me to hold on to a tweet. Well I can talk forever about it, so I will commence now! Ren http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=5506758 Awesome article!! I love the quote by JD Rucker!
