Social media is a good place to get feedback from your actual customers.

Definitely something that I need to remember – to find the customers and build a relationship with them, instead of spending all my time networking. Thanks for the reminder!

Ricardo, having made a lot of friends in the BlogWorld group, I understand why we want to talk to friends, rather than meet new people. It’s not easy, but I do work to balance the two.

Funny, I was just having this conversation with someone today... Thinking back on Blogworld LA I mentioned how I find it silly that some people hang out with the same group of peers that they see all the time rather than taking this event as an opportunity to meet and connect with new faces.

I find that such a shame.

And yes, I can see this happening just as much in the online space. In my niche (real estate) it's Agents connecting with other Agents. And though yes, that's a form of networking, it's not as effective as working to build relationships with consumers.
