Something is pretty awesome about working online. It's the tools that I have discovered and am still discovering that have given me a fairly good web presence. They have helped me brand my name, several key words and develop a credibility where people buy our products online in many cases without talking with us.
Web Seminars and how to maximize presenting our business to individuals and groups.
Blogs and how to utilize them to better connect with our prospects and clients.
Search Engine Optimization and how to increase our online awareness for free.
Free Online Business Directories and how utilizing them can increase our exposure dramatically.
Something that I think we all deal with is how do we get new customers. Using all the offline approaches is great but we're living in a world that is moving at such a faster pace. Perhaps if we, (yes you and me) took advantage of the online services that are available to us we could join the race that seemingly many of the "big shots" in our industry are utilizing.
I don't know if you realize it but there is more than one way to get up to speed regarding techonology. When you here the word "technology" you might think of dollar signs. It doesn't have to be that way. I know when I first started using the internet back in 1991 I was scared to death. Everything was so complicated. Today things are so much different.
Every one of us can get in the game by simply exploring what's available. The best part about it is that it doesn't cost a cent to investigate. In a lot of cases some of the actual services are free to use. The service providers give their services away for free because the more people who utilize their "branded service" the more exposure they get.
Think about it. If internet exposure is good for service providers who are giving away their services for free, wouldn't internet exposure be good for you and me too?

Pastor Ced, It is an investment. I find there are no quick results. I associate blogging to gardening. From small seeds one day something BIG will grow.
