Not everything has to be a blog; I firmly agree with you there, Diane. So, I'll have to ask my SEO expert pals to check into this more. But here's what I found. Google did not find Sun Valley Book when I entered sun valley book and video. So, as of yet, we can't find you via google. (you can't be googled., oh no!) And when I went to my Yahoo search, I found your wonderful bookstore (I know it's wonderful; I've been there.) found it only in yellow pages. So, a girl has to know to go to yahoo group search to find the page. I'm afraid I didn't find it there either. I must be doing something wrong. -- oh. I found it by typing in exactly sunvalleybookvideo... will the site be listed at some point so outsiders can find it? That would be my concern.

Then you are a natural-made blogger! Welcome to the blogosphere. At the risk of shameless self-promotion, let me also direct you to an August blog of mine: "<a href="http://blog.harlaneditorial.com/2007/08/02/blogging-is-marketing/" rel="nofollow">Blogging is Marketing</a>" for some benefits and to "<a href="http://blog.harlaneditorial.com/2007/08/07/blogs-build-relationships/" rel="nofollow">Blogs build relationships</a>" .. Good place to start, but I have lots more. I have a feeling I'll be seeing you on the Web. A-ha! Then you are a natural-made blogger! Welcome to the blogosphere.

Questions! And the answers to those questions are the bottom line all businesses need to address: How do I connect, track and determine ROI... Great questions, Diane. I'm smiling because they are also the BIG questions. Tracking is the easy one. There are a few analytics you can use; today I signed up with Google analytics to begin tracking my site activity. So, yes. You can see how many come to the site and what they do while there. But now, CONNECTION... that's the word that answers "why" for me. Most small business blogging is done for the connection. We want clients to know us and we want to know them. And once you connect and link into the conversation surrounding your business, you naturally go higher profile. You gain name recognition. And, I'm just thinking out loud here, but I think that you connect with your customers on a personal level; your business pops up to the top of their personal radar; you're building relationships, you're participating in the conversation. You're visible Thanks for the thought-provoking questions. <blockquote>And you pose the biggest one of all: WHY would a busy businesswoman blog?.</blockquote> Questions. Questions!

Thanks for the thought-provoking questions.

And you pose the biggest one of all: WHY would a busy businesswoman blog?.

How would blogging connect to potential clients? What are the statistics of distribution or averages? How would I know how many hits my blog gets? Hows and whys???? Know you have some answers to these questions. Thanks, Diane How would blogging bring in a business profile? How would blogging connect to potential clients?

Very cool! And this would be a fascinating piece to base some leadership articles on. Certainly is a new idea that has not been mined (far as I know) by mainstream biz writers. Brilliant! And since I happen to know you have a magazine or two going there, maybe we'll see some of this in near future! Yes! Very cool!

That's when I discovered that The Deathly Hallows is an excellent leadership book. It teaches you tthat no matter how talented we might think we are, we can accomplish so much more by surrounding ourselves with even more talented people and helping them succeed. Pretty cool.
