The comment I was typing to you just turned into a post on my own blog..."Trusting others may mean taking a bullet." In a nutshell, when we let a new member into our closed networking group, we must often sacrifice and try their services or product personally. Doing so has its dangers, but also a number of benefits...from immediate revenue to reciprocity to speeding up the group's trust-building process. There's a balance between caution and jump-starting chapter success. Hazel, I've also added you to my blogroll. Emile Paradis talks highly of you. Thank you for your insights. Jay F.
