I just wrote about a similar topic inspired by your coverage in Trust agents. I agree 100% and continually work to get the real world to transcend the digital world, not the other way around. We are all human beings living on this planet with one life to live. Who wants to live it constantly feeling the pressure of sell...sell...sell...No way! Building relationships is paramount to the success of any business. Social media just gives you a wider net. Ciao! Nichole @InnovateMarCom Always great stuff Greg!

We don't know each other but after reading your piece, makes me want to know you. Hopefully, that was the point. I'm often embarrassed to say that I work in the executive recruitment industry. This has to be the worst case scenario of "let me use you, slam, bam, pick-up check". Too often its bam, bam, slam, pick-up check. Our biz is introducing a private community in our niche later this month. It's one of 5 moving parts to our new business model. Your comments here are excellent foundational engagement points for us going forward. Thanks! Jim Baran Value Stream Leadership Twitter: LEANVSL Great post Greg.
