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…
