Using Facebook To Build Your Wedding Flower Business

You already have a FaceBook account so why not use it to make some money? Social networking is a great way to get the word out that you make the most beautiful wedding bouquets that your Friends have ever seen. Whether you are selling them on Etsy, EBay or just locally, FaceBook can put you in touch with people who want what you have got. You can sell items for free on FaceBook Marketplace.People are always needing things or services and if you find the right people they will want what you have! You can join groups that introduce you to people with similar interests; you might meet someone who is interested in selling your handmade wedding bouquets in their Bridal shop. Social networking can help you make the right connections that can get your talents noticed.What makes FaceBook so great is that your friends also have friends which creates a viral environment. You get introduced to their friends and they may know someone who needs what you have. Word of mouth is a great marketing tool and FaceBook can get the word out that you really make some great bouquets at a great price.You should also make a MySpace page because many people use it too. The concept is the same as FaceBook with a different delivery. Make sure that your pages on both sites portray the image that you want to project and be sure to post some pictures on your profile page so that people can easily see what you can do. Add your business contacts and past customers as friends so that you will have a group that is interested in your business and can vouch for you.After you have your page looking like you want it to, make sure to keep your pages up to date and acknowledge people who write on your wall. Occasionally bring up what you do to others but don’t hard sell or spam them or your friends may disappear.

Smart Software

One of the blogs that I read is “Right Wing Techie,” from the CEO of Stardock. I didn’t really expect to have much in common, except that he and I are both software entrepreneurs.
Over time, I noticed that our views were remarkably similar. We are both socially on the left and fiscally on the right, a view commonly described as libertarian, despite the fact that we may not actually identify with the Libertarian Party.
I wonder if the software community is more homogeneous than it appears. Although the software industry tends to split evenly into the Republican and Democratic camps, this is only because the common values and interests of the industry are not espoused entirely by either group.
