YES to all of the above.
I experimented with Fiverr on my own and I've taken my radio voice and my ability to take your "crappy at best," web copy on your website and polish it up so good that even Ben Kinney himeself will want to buy your home.

I got a call from a prospect last week after she went to one of the RainCamp seminars. My name was brought up as a recommendation. 
So thanks Bob or whoever else named dropped me.
During the phone conversation, I was explaining what to do on Facebook for some marketing tips. Then out of the blue, she asked me, "How come you're not very BIG on Facebook?"
What do you mean? I asked.
She said, "Well, you don't really have a Facebook presence. You have less than 20 friends."
I explained that when you have a natural, page one presence on … (6 comments)

facebook marketing: Facebook adds Location Now. - 05/08/10 11:17 AM
Sometime this month, in addition to responding to the Privacy policy headaches that Sen. Shuman, Sen. Al Franken are demanding answers to, Facebook has side stepped some of these issues by doing the  shell game here.
Look at the monkey. Look at the monkey. Just like any cheap showman's act designed to distract you from the Facebook privacy nightmare they created last week Facebook is now offering "Location" to Facebook.
What does adding Location Mean? Let me give you an example. 
First marketer up to bat with this is McDonalds, the hamburger franchise. 
As if we had no clue where the … (30 comments)

facebook marketing: New FaceBook App: Do Not Disturb. Donations Needed. - 08/10/09 05:08 AM
I'm getting sick and tired of being attacked with all of these stupid Facedbook applications. 
No matter where you go, or what you read, there is a lot of BUZZ and evidence that suggest that Facebook is a great place to go and get visibility for you.
Just like ActiveRain has already helped many of us to be VISIBLE on Google -- the promise of FaceBook holds just as much promise and potential. Providing that we don't first drown in the gazillions of Facebook Time Waster Applications, first.
I know we all need play time, but every time I open up … (10 comments)
