Just this: If you are trying to give yourself a shortcut by not asking for your clients’ permission before you sign them up for your sales list, newsletter, or any other form of unsolicited information, you’re shooting yourself in the foot. So what does all of this have to do with being an entrepreneur, a copywriter, or a freelancer?

I’d say the biggest lessons I’ve learned, both on the job and now in my post journo career as a writer/illustrator/etc…, is to accentuate what you do best and what makes you unique. I have thrown most of my ideas out there in either book or blog form, hoping that I can profit from the implementation of those ideas.

To avoid the hypocrisy, whatever a person’s talk is, they should also be walking it or learning to walk it. Most of us teach what we needed or still need to learn ourselves. To have any sort of vision of the future, people must form an opinion of where we currently stand, and where we are headed. I agree with Marian.

I will say, though, that Ali’s post was coincidentally timed – though you’ll have to tune in next week to learn why.

Failure to pay as agreed is a particularly bad form of feedback, but I’ve often seen clients use it that way. I know many people look down on them, but the truth is that they usually haven’t put in the time to make it work right or learned how to make the system work for them. Do use sites like Elance.
