I like your posts that offer sound business advice, but it's your Sunday posts that really make this blog strong. Becoming a better business relies on becoming a better "you." Please keep up the great work! Geoff Skip,

It's a bit of a mansion in a 10' x 10' world and it says success before you even view one image. Also, in a sea of trade show clutter, this booth will look like an island of calm serenity. If Dawn is looking for top tier brides she's all there. Regarding topics, I have one I'd like to see explored. Blossom Publishing is experimenting with a new hybrid of direct mail and online experience called pURLs (personalized URLs). Idea is simple: instead of asking your direct mail to drive prospects to "make the call" ... ask it to do something far easier -- take a trip to an online "give-and-take" encounter prepared especially for that prospect. Then use carefully crafted "landing pages" to learn about your prospect, show them things they say they are interested in seeing ... and eventually do work for them if you are a match to their wants and needs. What I"m wondering is if other photographers have experimented with this type of promotion yet ... and what their experiences have been thus far. Like Twitter and Facebook, this is uncharted waters in January of 2010. But surely their must be some adventurers who already have some "pearls" of wisdom to share. First off, wow, great booth.
