Jim - I have not had the experience of your marketing presentation before - and I'm poorer for the lack.  This was brilliant, colorful, insightful and informative.  More importantly I was fascinated with the subtle call to action in your closing narrative.  My hat's off to a master - and I have learned a great deal in a very few minutes.  Thanks ...

This is a great article and I just looked at one of your hyper-local blogs and it is beautiful.  I have written 6 blogs in August, and I was happy with them, as a start.  They are coming up on page 1 and so I feel good about that.  However, your tables, which I always send to buyers, are a great idea to post, and I still have to figure out how to put pictures in next to the text and next to each other.  I will call you at some point to find out how to do this.  Excellent blogs!
