My Talk Show Today is about my pink slap by ebay!

We appreciate your participation in the eBay Community Forums. We are writing
to let you know that we removed the following post.

My personal goal as a small business owner is to spend a bit
more time with my existing customers from previous
transactions and to sell to them direct. I think a goal
of $100 direct is a reasonable goal for me and that not only
saves me the entire FVF, BUT, it also tests my marketing
abilities.<br><br>Does anyone else want to set a personal
goal<br><br><br>Does anyone have any tips?<br><br>Here's
my tip. This past week a few customers who bought from me
and wrote me back they were very happy and satisfied, I
would like to write them a little note thanking them for
their compliments and their satisfaction. I'm going to
let them know about the benefit of shopping direct with
me and how if they feel comfortable with my previous
performance, that I would appreciate continued word of mouth
and their future business and I will work hard to
continue to excel beyond their expectations.<br><br>I am
thinking I might ask some of my very best customers if
they would be interested in carrying some of my business
cards to give out to a few friends. I am small, I am more
like them than I am some big business. I think they will
relate to me<br><br><br><b>I AM GOING TO TRY!!
