Bug Your Customers (They'll Love You for It)

Synopsis
Are you afraid to bug your customers with information about your products or services?

I understand. Been there. Still there sometimes. And in the past week I pushed my personal envelope around bugging customers, and the results were terrific. I received thank you notes from people who were able to register for the The Self Employment Telesummit because I reminded them on Saturday, Sunday, and Monday.

It scared the heck out of me, and some folks unsubscribed. That's cool, and that's their business. My business is to take care of the people I serve by delivering timely information in their best interest.

Are you taking care of the people you serve?

Great stuff, well worth keeping in mind. Sometimes we are too shy and can under serve our core audience by trying not to annoy the people who do not want our services anyway :)
