A constant stream of advertising is not going to make you keep your friends, but is rather going to chase them away. You need to give away about 80% good free value vs 20% hard sales, whether it is in your email marketing strategy, or in your sponsored tweets or other social updates, in order to keep your audience happing, while still getting the buy in you are aiming for via your internet marketing efforts.

Yes, it's more polite to be sociable when meet. So happy to see you here and hopefully this won't be your last visit. Nice meeting you. Marko,

Ethical marketing is what matters now, it takes time to have them separate true networking from promoting. Thank you for visiting. :-) Rohit,

We can't be online 24 hours/day, especially when blog-visiting is another passion of ours right? :-) Real time conversations are extremely important. Unfortunately even though I don't use scheduling sometimes but I still log in/out from time to time, causing the delay in replying too. It's hard to really tell when someone is really online or not. But I do make sure to reply no matter what. Late is better than not replying. ^^ Wonderfully shared, Jena. Jena,

That's another hot one going on there. Tweetmeme is one handy tool isn't it? Hope you like it. I didn't get to catch up with you on Twitter yet, different time zone maybe? It seems like easier to locate you at your blog. ha.. love the latest post with the pictures too. Thank you so much for dropping by, always! :-) Jannie,

I never had that much followers so unaware of the possibilities of people ignoring DMs but pay more attention on @mentions. I'll be sure to keep this in mind, double check with them just so they've read it. ^^ Very fine tips given, I'm grateful for your insightful comment. Do visit again. Gail,

Your approach is well planned and I don't have anything against that. :-) To have our posts delivered a couple of times more in different time range is acceptable, I'm ok with that too. Yes, always keep DM sociable. ^^ I truly appreciate your feedback, Mitch.

No more promo and sales pitch before you even get to know someone and what they like. Be sincere, at least. Thank you so much for the comment! Luci,
