LOVE the things I can do for clients with Studiopress! Take a look at this http://bit.ly/aKc3Hq Look at it thru PicLens! Talk about IMPACT!

A freelance outsourcing company actually delivering quality work on time would be busy 24/7! Seems no one wants to work...hard! An idea?!

Hired a "freelancer" to get some work done over 2wks ago, allowing for delays, I thought a 4 day completion cushion would be enough! Wrong!

OK that's it! Vistaprint has gone down for good! What a system! Free stuff, then charge 100 bucks to get it delivered in less than a month!

Memorial Day! Let's remember those who've paid the ultimate price in the name of freedom. Veterans hate war! But tyranny & oppression more!

Happy Memorial Day to my fellow veterans! Especially to fellow Disabled American Veterans! Kind of an exclusive bunch, huh? Remember!

It's 4:40am & I'm calling it a night! Working on a client's marketing campaign! LOVE what you can do with Studiopress themes & images! Wow!

Mentioned a well-known direct response marketing guru's name to a prospective client today & he said, "Who?" Sometimes we assume too much!

Remember when "Alternative" music actually was? I mean, at the end of the dial? Now look! Now think about inbound, "new media" marketing!

Finally got home. Dreary night, cold & wet! Typical for Ohio & great for ducks! The nice thing? I'll wait 5 mins & the weather will change!

TuffGuy is like my kids used to be! He wants to go out not realizing it's cold & rainy. He's relentless! So, I'll let him learn for himself!
