Facebook can be a tricky place for many people. There are a lot of etiquette issues that need to be considered and learned before you jump in. It can be an addiction that you will love or hate. The hardest part is getting over the initial frustration of learning something new. For those of you...

Traditional marketing is not working! Even what some consider nontraditional marketing is not working. Why? Immunity. Do you remember when you were a kid and you would get a letter in the mail?
