Now, after saying all that, I will also be first to go on record to say that I have found MOST people on Internet to be extremely honest and helpful. And, that's just plain truth.

But, in any arena, you will find unscrupulous few that make it not only difficult for most, but appear to be majority. Online, however, THEY find YOU. Yes, one bad apple can "appear" to spoil whole bunch.

The names of perpetrators have been purposely omitted to protect their not-so-innocence. I've attempted to contact "middleman" on several occasions with "Show Me The Money" in my subject line (don't you just love fad slang)? No response has been forthcoming NOW, I'm getting about as much attention and respect as a Texas prisoner in solitary confinement ("Ma, did neighbors move?").

Once again, if you are willing to admit that this type of incident has, indeed, happened to you as well, and what your feelings are on it, "Can I Get A Witness?" A simple Amen will suffice. Now, if I can only find that other box of Kleenex. (sniff, sniff)

P.S. I still have a small problem though. My Uncle Guido has now threatened to break both my kneecaps, as well as both elbows for squandering a significant portion of family fortune on this well-meaning venture (gives new meaning to "tough" love).

Now, you and I both know what comes next. As such, please forward all cards, flowers, letters of sympathy, but most importantly, funeral expense contributions to kenny@kennylove.net. In advance, thanks for your support. I'm gonna need it...Uncle Guido is partial to a specially designed 35" DeMarini! Ouch! (sniff, sniff)

It also tells our prospective customers level/lack of quality customer service they can expect to receive if they choose to do business with us.

I was also extremely surprised later to discover on web site of a leading and very well known (and college educated) marketing expert, some tweaks that were, obviously, not tweaked prior to presentation of site to world. In fact, this particular individual was a "Journalism" Major in college, which makes my findings even more perplexing.

This "expert" has also appeared on national television, national radio, and in national business magazines instructing and coaching others in matters of business. I only wonder what clientele thinks upon discovery of obvious spelling and grammatical errors on site?

Below are actual grammatical errors conspicuously displayed on site:

===============================================================

1. "I have to telling people what I'm doing, have I finally felt first hand how important it is to build and market to you database!"

2. "The more people that are on your database, greater you chances are that there will be interested prospects..."

3. "The Web is a fount of information..."

4. "Do your television production costs practically exceed cost of sir time you buy to run your commercials?"

5. "What about cable schedule you bought just because you were enticed by row rates?"

6. "Send potentially clients appropriate holiday greeting cards..."

===============================================================

Can you spot obvious mistakes in each of above instances?

Let me leave just a piece of advice here...have NetMechanic.com review your web site for any misspelled errors. There is a link on site that will allow you to have it automatically perform a weekly review of your web site, then send you a detailed copy of report of its findings, along with suggestions for repair. This will save much embarrassment from having a customer point a mistake out to you.

As villains in "Capital One Credit Card" television commercials asks, "What's in *YOUR* wallet?"

As such, I'm certain you can imagine how relieved I feel upon receiving my weekly report from NetMechanic.com and notice that my site has nary a misspelt wurd en it. :-)
