Unfettered's Stay Informed Goes Serious?

The following post is a live-linked re-print of Unfettered!'s Stay Informed - Sixth Edition

In this edition of Stay Informed we get serious and right into the meat of using Social Networking to Develope and Establish your internet presence and build quality relationships guaranteed to seriously work for your business.

By now you've probably heard all the buzz on branding or selling yourself and not business opportunities, but what is selling yourself? No, it doesn't mean you literally 'pimp' yourself and sell your virginity on the internet or anything sick like that! It's more about relating with people much like I just may have with my lame, sick and twisted sense of humour!

Taking a closer look, if you have a specific area your able to field yourself as an expert in(as I personally am with Social Networking), it won't be long before other people start finding you who either are also experts or are seeking to learn or buy from you. Either instance is good: If they are in the same field and truly professional, you should easily be able to hook up and begin working on ways to help each other....whether it's through exchanging links or information or just by talking about each other, it's all good! And if it's just an interested party looking to learn or buy from you(or both!), well I believe thats pretty much self expanatory! ;-)

Now, here we are on Unfettered where I can see we all share at least a few things in common. We are all people(obviously!) who are using the internet and social networking and have some kind of a business we are promoting. Some of us are even bent on building this network to a status of being a grassroots movement of sorts, people helping people and such....real people celebrating life and enjoying freedom of choice and speech! And our core interest is Quality networking and making friends.

Lets take a look at last weeks Unfettered contest and profile spot winner Mariangie Gonzalez for instance. A quick search of her name on any of the three major search engines and you will instantly find it proudly displayed in social communities all over the internet where she's doing an astounding job of presenting herself as an expert in the field of holistic pet care. An avid aminal lover, she has wanted to work with animals since childhood. After attaining her degree in Animal Science & Pre-Veterinary and a stint in the Horticulture and Landscaping arena because of her background in the Agricultural Field, she found herself wanting to be at home more with her family where she offically launched her online business in 2004.

More importantly, shes cool, fun, engaging and I suspect if asked she'd be more than willing to help you however she's able! And she also informs me that this very Tuesday marks the four year anniversary of her business, way to go Mariangie and all the best for your future which is sure to be filled with many great things!

"The world is realizing the power of natural care, herbal remedies, whole foods all over again and I am proud to be there to offer an alternative for our pets. Our pets can't go online and search and buy their own care products but if I can do something to provide their owners with alternative products and education, I feel I'm doing my job."

In other news, some really gruff looking dude was seen asking some of the most intesifying, burning, passionate questions you could ever hear as ANYONE looking to grow their online exposure. If you can shed some insight on this amazingly brilliant and thought-provoking inquiry you may just unlock the sacred time constrained secrets of diversion and unadulterated elevation.

We would also like to highlight the efforts of site administrator Cheryl Baumgartner. Her tireless work and unwaiving support has without a doubt had a very significant impact on the overall quality and inviting feel of the site. On the other hand, some ugly bush dude is a little disgruntled with all her contests, mainly because he has to keep cranking out these super-awesome newsletters to keep up with her....

The thought for the week is to not take notice that I forgot to include last weeks thought, which would be a whole lot easier if I didn't just bring that up. Sheesh!!

Get in on This Week's Profiling Spotlight Contest, get to know some great people and have a few laughs on us, and hope to feature you next week, till then.....

I'm Garnet Nagy, containing my laughter and desperately trying to keep a straight face.
