Even down to the smallest of businesses. I chose my last acupuncturist because she was always posting easy to understand health-related articles.

Mostly because if the said property doesn't make a profit for them, they will shut it down. Kind of like what they almost did with Delicious. And […]

On one hand, yes you want to deliver awesome customer service. On the other, if you keep letting your customer be wrong, they'll walk all over you.

I just realized that they don't have a latest posts on the main blog either. Even the last 5 would be handy.

People grab photos and images off of Google Images all of the time and feel they can use them since it's "just for a blog post" or "just for a Facebook post."

On a lower resolution, you lose the person's entire profile if you scroll too far up.

This way, I'm at least getting something out of it - the peace of mind that I won't get stiffed later.

If your CRM tool allows you to add links to client notes, you could always link an important social media conversation that way.

Where? in the club Small Business @rich-brooks Who did you buy it through? If you have it on GoDaddy, you could put it through their auctions system. That way, when people are looking for social media related domains, they might come across yours.

Since they were bullied so much. :)

When I decided to do it, I also raised my rates, so I'm still getting paid what I used to and without the worry that I won't get paid at all.
