Thank you, Steve! I love meeting genuine people, don't you? I'll have to look up mr. Brauner. Sounds like a good guy to know. I try to be as transparent as possible as well because I believe people want, deserve, and expect to see “what's going on” more and more. (Or, who's behind the curtain)

Thanks Steve, your friend sound like someone I should connect with. I'll definitely look him up. I love people who are totally open like that. Nothing better than knowing exactly WHO you're dealing with.

Great article! Someone I have seen do a great job of bridging the online presence with offline marketing is @larrybrauner. He provides his phone number freely, and has great conversations. I know, because he was very generous with his phone time with me about a year ago

Hey, LaTara, glad you enjoyed it. I'm kind of like you, Linkedin wasn't my favorite, but there's a lot of value in the service if you give it a little time. You really have to set time aside to go deeper with it. I haven't seen very many functioning groups on Facebook because I don't think people use it the way I described in this article, but I'm sure it can work that way.

And the best tip I can give about creating a dynamic group on Facebook is to organize real people that you know who will support it online and off. If you get that element they'll do the recruiting for you!

Good stuff. Gotta admit LinkedIn is not my fave but I use it sparingly all the same for resume purposes. Twitter is by far my fav and is about 85% of my business. Facebook is a very very close second to Twitter because of the interaction I get from it.

I love what you had to say about creating content just for the folks who became Fans of my pages. I am not sure about creating the group thing because I have yet to see a very functioning one on Facebook.

Any tips for creating a dynamic group on Facebook!
