It’s easy to fall into the trap of emailing off four, five, or more guest posts quickly and then expecting to see your work on the blog of your choice the very next day. If in doubt, a polite email to the site owner may be in order. It’s perfectly acceptable to email your contact and ask about the status of your post.

One friend refers you to someone who only has an email address, a generic address like annepottertherapist@mail.com. Would you search online for Anne Potter before writing her an email? Compounding the problem was the president giving me an @comcast.net email address. It’s too expensive.&# Stacy – YES!

I’d like a website, but I’m having a hard time justifying the expense.&# Something doesn’t necessarily have to be expensive, but I believe it has to *look* like it was done to quality standards for that perception of “expensive&# – which many people equate to grounded, established business.

What we get from that expense isn’t tangible. Some experts may want to tune in and adjust your strategy now and then, or check in to see how you’re doing and where they could suggest tweaks that create even more impact, but even that doesn’t need to be a monthly expense.
