What a great idea Linda. I do get tired of reading ads on the forum. Hope you have a happy holiday!!

Thank you April. Happy holidays to you too!

So correct, Linda. One thing that bugs me most is getting invitations that are actually just a marketing spiel. It certainly flavors my perception when everything I get from an online "friend" is an advertisement in disguise. Rose

Hi Rose, I think many just do not understand the value of developing relationships BEFORE you start spewing out about your business. I love getting to know people and also learning about what they do... but it turns me completely off when someone invites me to be a friend with a big long advertisement included. There is time to learn about each other... and a much better way to build respect and loyalty, don't you think? Thanks for your comments!
