16. Success Story
“Someone from
Florida found me on
Twitter, saw my
shop posting, was
on vacation in NH,
stopped into my
little ol' boutique,
and bought three of
my custom signs.
Ding! Crazy Twitter
success!”

“Listening is a
magnetic and strange
thing, a creative
force.
“The friends who
listen to us are the
ones we move
toward.
“When we are
listened to, it creates
us, makes us unfold
and expand.”

Professional Flirting
Think casual, natural, friendly.
Add a comment here, a thoughtful
observation there, share a joke,
“smile” through your
communications – online or in
person. Think LEVITY.
Social media platforms are
particularly ripe for these types of
exchanges. RELAX.
Spread good vibes. Enjoy life.

Freund says his interest in media is driven by a desire to communicate big ideas to people. "And to share those ideas with people over distances or larger and larger groups of people."
This, for the most part, is a one time investment.

Rules of engagement. You get to decide how people will play, BUT... You’ve got to give people a lot of leash. Living room rule in blogging – if you wouldn’t say it in someone’s living room, don’t say it yourself, and you’d be within your rights not to tolerate it...but it’s a slipperly slope, too.
