Thank you Frank for all you do to help our community. Your amazing knowledge of advertising has helped me grow my business. Thank You!

If you are like me, then you HATE to fish. You love to CATCH fish. I have never caught so many fish as I do when I go out fishing with Bear. The last time we went fishing together (a few weeks back), we caught 45 fish. So much fun!

I have been working with Dominic for the last month or so and am impressed by his calm and pleasant demeanor. His education based approach to financial planning is refreshing. He teaches without talking down to me.

Great input Frank. I disagree with your statements, but sure glad you took the time to share your views.

Chamber events are great for putting faces to names, but the words we speak at the chamber is NOT searchable on the internet. Unless your chamber is taking dictation and posting every word on the net, I'm pretty sure Bear's points are correct.

Blogging takes less time, the article is indexed forever, and you are able to make better connections with potential customers...

I guess now is not the best to time ask if I could borrow your truck to do some hauling?

Yes you can teach an old dog new tricks!

Wow what a great service Ed Bejarana provides! In just two days my new site,
Twitter/ franksfriends,com went from zero followers to over 1000 and more arriving as each hour goes by. This is great to help me build my business and make important business and social connections in the marketing and advertising venues throughout the local, regional and national marketplace. It helps me to sell advertising and serve clients far and wide!
I am a senior business owner and am also employed by a major media company in Oregon State. I sell advertising to small, medium and large accounts for the NW Senior & Boomer News.
I knew I needed to discover the value and the “how to” on blogging and business building through Twitter, Face Book, Linkdin and other social and business blog sites. Ed became my lifeline!

Just this morning I got a call from my blog line via my twitter account. I have had excellent results with business folks calling for information on NW Senior & Boomer News and about advertising requests.
As a member of the East Portland Chamber of Commerce I met Ed, and he became my internet teacher, mentor and guru!! Ed has patiently taught, cajoled, and assisted me in the perils of teaching an senior dog new tricks. I recommend Ed Bejerana of Zenith Exhibits and suggest you write Ed today at Businessblog.net and get a very special treatment, Learn at your pace with great resuts. This old dog recommends Ed Bejerana if you need an affordable blogging coach or site built for your personal or business needs. Call today, you will be glad you did.

Hey Bear,

Actually, the number of people who die from the flu (in the US) every year is over 36,000. However, there are some disputes over the actual number because "the flu" is is usually NOT the cause of death, but complications brought on by the flu.

Because of my Asthma, I worry about going to public places with large crowds. So the Swine Flu has modified my habits a little. I shake fewer hands at chamber meetings, avoid shopping malls during busy hours, and touch fewer items on the shelf at the store.

Whew. Just finished the shoot out between ACORN and Glenn. I put off going back to work--just so I could witness it live. Virtual standing-O Glenn. You the man.

The normal talking points from those on the left when getting their butt kicked is to deflect with personal attacks. The way you treated your guest should be used as a training video for ALL future conservative speakers.

I believe is the greatness of America and feel eventually those on the left will face the anger of every American. While the elite left wants to try and make fun of Joe six pack, the truth is we out number them. Seeing you perform a verbal tap dance on their idiocy will inspire the quiet majority to speak up.

Keep up the great work Glenn. Please!

Thanks Ravi. I love your description "captivating your tribe". Do you mind if I use that in my classes?

Hi Bruce,

You wouldn't. Use Twitter as a business news wire or direct mail marketing tool. Write new content on your business website or blogsite and promote the article on Twitter. I'm sending tweets from my blog sites and seeing a three fold increase in web traffic.
