  1. Hey Monte! Found your blog after seeing your question on the Marketing/PR Innovators' Group on LinkedIn regarding charging for the creative with a social media client.

    I have no idea, myself, but was intrigued by your crayon story, so sensing a kindred spirit, I have now found your blog, which I will enjoy following! I'm lovin' the whole social media landscape, and am convinced it's a 'learn as you go' frontier at this stage, which is exactly what I'm doing - exploring, poking, prodding and figuring out how it helps my business!

    BTW, the 2nd of my 3 "day-I-walk-away" fantasy careers is being a crayon sidewalk artist in Paris - If my knees will just hold out a little longer.

    :) mb, who still doesn't understand what the big deal is about coloring inside the lines.
