		<description>I just had a conversation with a client yesterday who has been terrific about writing content and being on top of our requests. Still, it was wonderful to hear from him how difficult it is for him to come up with appropriate content and how different a mindset he needed to have when writing for the website, because of the SEO and the psychological conversion issues inherent with internet marketing. 

For most of my clients though, the paralysis brought on by analysis is due in large part because of an old-school mentality toward publishing - I&#039;m still working on the theory here - but it seems like the call for perfection that powers the publishing of printed collateral - 50,000 brochures are going to last a really long time, it better be right - really doesn&#039;t apply in this channel. My advice is always &quot;Get us something so we can get the page indexed in Google.&quot; It takes a bit of unlearning and trust to make that leap. To the well-trained ear, it simply doesn&#039;t sound right.

Doing what you&#039;ve done here shows one more time that making it happen is half the battle. Congratulations - I&#039;m a subscriber !!!</description>

		<description>Fabulous and delicious. Love the site and I&#039;m with you on the degree. But look at the bright side; those silly hats don&#039;t look good on anyone AND they leave you with hat-head. Good luck with the site and business and I&#039;ll be looking for your next &#039;chapter&#039;!</description>

		<description>Sandi,

At the beginning I think I even said, &quot;We tell people it&#039;s a lot of work, and they nod their heads, but at the end of the project they curse our name and tell us it was harder than they could have imagined.&quot;

So, with a whole lot of love I say: I told you so. :-P

BTW, great job on the content, I laughed, I cried, I tweeted.</description>
