Ask the wrong people or the wrong questions and you won't get valid responses. Of course, you're always going to get a few off topic responses no matter what. But hey, it's still better than guessing. :-) Warmest, Stacy Stacy Karacostas Practical Marketing Expert http://www.success-stream.com Hi Dave,

My advice is this: "Be careful who you ask." For many people (myself included, as witnessed by the big empty box beneath your post that states: "Leave A Reply"), give us an opportunity to express an opinion and we'll give you an answer about everything except what you asked. I got answers like: "I get what you're trying to say, but...". The problem with this answer is it doesn't tell ME what they "get", and then we're off into a laundry list of other things. Don't get me wrong; yes, ask! But beyond seeking to communicate your message clearly, remember that it's still YOUR message. (I was kinda shocked when I first read Steve Jobs never much cared what others thought of his concepts). On the other hand, asking those questions is a great way to invite people to look at your website, too! Just ask with sincerity, of course.
