Thank you so much for your comments! It’s funny, that even in business, and especially in advertising, the companies that resonate with us and touch lives get a payoff. Personally, Social Media opened the door to cultivate some beautiful face-to-face encounters and even develop some lasting friendships and partnerships. It works when we open ourselves up not for what we can get, but for what we can give. Thanks again Dr. Ada!!

Love your post Staci! Building relationships is key for everything. And you build relationships one conversation at a time. As you say, it takes time. But it’s worth it. Not so much in terms of business return, but in terms of touching lives and be touched by others. I love to “collect” friends and to see where relationships take me. My hope for Social Media is that the relationships started there can also translate into face-to-face contacts, since the more deeply “human” in us needs the mirror of the eyes to feel validated.

Thanks for sparking more conversations! I look forward to more conversations too.

Warmly,

Dr. Ada

Well said, In the old days when (not too long ago) when they mainly advertised on print there was no way to track. Only to Brand. Now its about that value. And that value is what truly creates success
