Reply Tamar Weinberg December 17, 2009 at 11:26 pm Janie, I’m not entirely sure – I think it really depends on email marketing tools. My focus is more on the humanness of the business versus the tools of the trade. The tools help, but at the end of the day, it’s about the relationships.

They hear about tools, put forth a miserable effort, and are either too busy or just lazy. Just do it while giving back to the community as well. Have you read The New Community Rules ?
