you are both very wrong. The piece is not too long, but , actually quite incomplete. I read it twice looking for certain important details and still don’t know how many suggars Odille and Greg had with their capuccino. Maybe in the next installment….

Personal branding seems to be an important consideration for everyone, especially if you are promoting yourself or your business on the social media platforms. If it’s good enough for the TV and movie stars to have people follow them on twitter why not everyone who is trying to create an impression?
I especially liked Greg’s tips on using Facebook and not to forget that what you say on Facebook stays on Facebook and the distinction between personal and business information on Linkedin.
Well done jwire and Odile and good luck Greg on your new business.

I enjoyed it

Personally I was very impressed, like the writer, in the first few seconds of reading.
I wish Mr Weiss much success not only in his venture, but also in helping others to succeed in theirs!

The distinction between FB and LinkedIn is something a few people just don’t get and so it was nice to get some pointers. Thanks for the tips.

Naomi

I agree with you 100%. I had the exact same thoughts and gave up reading after the first couple of paragraphs.
