I had an odd week in which I did a lot of work but did not make a lot of money.

I’m now a consultant?

More than a few times in the last couple of weeks I have been asked questions or have had to direct someone in one of the following.

1. Blogs and getting one started
2. Social Networking
3. Online promotion

I’ve never given it much thought, but I guess I do have a little skill in doing those things. Sure, this blog isn’t that popular, but the other one is and I know what it takes to keep the readers interested and coming back. So there is that.

I did build a podcast from scratch to having over 3k listeners. Not entirely on my own, but I was part of the team that made it happen.

But I’ve never been huge on Social Networking above and beyond Twitter, but I know how it all works and I’m starting to play more on the Facebook and other things.

So, I guess I could consult on these. Too bad I didn’t make any money with the knowledge these times, but there is a really good chance that will change in the very near future.

Most of you have already friend’d me up on twitter and facebook, but if you haven’t, use the links on the right. I always follow back unless you are a spammer, so get to it!

   There’s worse things to be than a consultant

   I just need to figure out how to monetize that particular service.
