As you may know, I have decided to start my own web design business. As part of my corporate strategic planning, (it’s only been a week, and I’m already beginning to talk like a first-year business student, or worse, a marketing student), I set up a new website: www.rubicondesigns.net.
This website has existed for less than 2 weeks. Today I received an email from a company in Romania asking if there was any additional work that I could pass their way. I also received an email from a hosting company in the States asking if I would like to join their affiliates program. And these were emails from real people, not automatically generated spam. I know this because I replied to them, and got a proper, human response.
