So bad you should STAB them with a wooden stake!
So bad you should make them into furniture. (I always kind of wince when someone does that with good or ok books. Furniture made from books is kinda of cool looking, but I'm only OK with it if it is made from really bad books.)
Dear god, promoting myself is making my brain hurt.
It's good; I'm getting a lot of help, but I feel like someone beat me upside the head all morning!
I'm also trying to conquer the asking for people to say nice shit about me squick, and the telling the world how awesome I am squick.
Whew. I need a shower and food. And to get up off my ass for the first time since 8 am. This is like running a marathon, and I still need to write about 10 pages today. Good thing I have tea.
Doing the promotion and the networking can be very exhausting. One thing I've found is that the passive promotion isn't as strong in getting new clients as the active networking. Talking directly to people, getting a card into their hands, or having a current client recommend in person is golden. Always make sure your happy clients have a handful of your business cards so that they can hand one to a new interested party when they are busy talking about the great job you've done.
I still suck at promoting myself.
