Two Addictive Business Tools You Will Love to Hate
@lizstrauss I’ll be there tonight for OCN.@chrisgarrett Love that you post you did on Causality and Correlation.
@squishythefish have you tried to Skype me lately?
This is the way we seem to be doing a lot of our Networking these days. Yeah, I know you know it is the way we use Twitter to keep up with friends and business contacts on a personal level.
The new kid on the block is Plurk. Different look, same basic concept. Being social online. If you haven’t signed up yet, you can join as My Friend. (It would be nice to up my Karma so I can get more cool emoticons.)
Both are actually great tools to network and keep in contact with current clients and help build your profile online. But Both have one inherent problem.
THEY’RE ADDICTIVE!
Even when you’re not actively Twittering or Plurking, just a lurker as I am quite often, you can get sucked in. Get more friends, see what they are talking about, see what is happening on the net, see who’s blogging about what, see what the newest fad is… Keep checking, don’t want to miss the next big wave of interest.
Redeeming Qualities
They are also addictive to the people you want to communicate with daily. The people online you care about. The clients you want to touch base with on a different level. Let potential clients see how you can help them through examples of how you help others. Just plain communicate.
These two Tools are really good at helping you keep in touch for Business, but you must be cautious not to get caught up in either too deeply to the detriment of the other things you need to do to keep your business growing.
