		<description>Love this post! 

FYI: There are some great articles on developing your brand at Go-To-Market Strategies, www.gtms-inc.com/tips. My favorties are:

Branding: Perception vs. Reality
http://www.gtms-inc.com/tip_brandperception.htm

and What&#039;s Brand Got to Do with It?
http://www.gtms-inc.com/tip_whatsbrand.htm

There are so many articles there, and I should mention their templates are VERY affordable. I also like the the site is woman-owned. 

Again, great information. Thanks much!</description>

		<description>Another great E-newsletter source is www.myemma.com. It is user friendly and the customer service is outstanding. I&#039;ve been using them for a year now and I couldn&#039;t be happier!</description>

		<description>This is great advice. My favorite part was where you mentioned that people need to cherry-pick their target market and advertising opportunities. I think this is so true. People can &quot;create a blog&quot; or &quot;place an ad&quot; but unless they go about reaching their actual loyal customer base it might just lead to empty traffic and a high bounce rate.</description>
