@atlantarobin  Have not had this problem Robin, but I am glad you posted the topic.  It is wrong that you are put in such a bad position.  I would think “rules are rules” and should not be broken, no matter how “clever” you are in trying to get around them.  Looking forward to hearing what others have to say!

@atlantarobin and everyone else:

Solicitations are not allowed here, but networking is.

Check out the Club Rules for more details if you’re not sure.

If you feel that a post is too spammy you can Flag it by clicking on the Flag button at the top of each post.

If you want to draw my attention to it, you can private message me w/a link to the thread.

If you’re getting repeated private messages from someone and you feel it’s all promotional, you can unfriend them and then they can’t send any more emails to you. You can also let me know about that as well and I’ll have a private chat.

If, however, you’re having a conversation with someone through PMs about business, it’s quite possible that what he or she offers will come up. You can politely decline and let them know you’re not interested.

Now that we all know how it works, let’s get on with sharing great content, helping each other out, and building our small businesses.

Not to put too fine a point on this, but unless you need to talk to me directly about this, I consider this conversation closed.
