Blogging about Sage ACT! and Database Marketing

by Susan Clark on September 3, 2010

You would think that after a whole summer of writing (the Sage ACT! Quickstudy Guide and the Swiftpage QuickStudy Guide) that it would be easy for me to write blog posts, or Twitter feeds, or updates to my Facebook and LinkedIn accounts. But sometimes it is like the cobbler who makes no shoes for her own children.

I was talking with a client yesterday about the discipline of marketing. It was easy for me to give her lots of ideas on what she could tweet about and it got me thinking about a 5-minute hour-glass timer that I bought from Pottery Barn a while back. Really, your tweets and updates to Social Media should not take any more time out of your day than the time it takes the sand to reach the bottom of the timer. That wouldn’t be so painful.

So I got out my timer this morning, and decided to test the theory. OK. This took me five minutes (maybe 7 after I edited). Now turn it over again and let my social media world know what I am up to. Then I am off to helping a client sync her Sage ACT! database to her HTC phone and then a bit of online training this afternoon.

Looking forward to that 3-day weekend.
