concerns? you’re not alone…
social media looks really interesting, but… I’ll never have millions of customers…
using new marketing tools sound great, but…
I will never write thought leadership articles….
reading what’s being said sounds useful, but…I’ll never have a dedicated staff to do it right…
I hear about new tools and networks everyday, but…
I just don’t have the time to stay current…
