Do you have a business?

Do you have a business, represented here, and if so, how do you market yourself socially? Do you worry about airing your opinions openly, or do you think that you are the brand, and if people don't like it, then too bad?

None of your busines.

I'm me - and my business is gambling. I'm not "GAMBLING" and I'm multi faceted.
I don't care much what people think of me - although I prefer to be liked... So my branding isn't necessary on a public forum.
However, on my business side - if I am representing my business I am representing my business.
On a forum- it is personal and not business.
Hope that clarified what I meant... LOL!
nice to see you N... -
Question: Do you have a business, represented here, and if so, how do you market yourself socially?
Answer: I have a business and I also do contract work. My business and contractual work is not represented here at BC. None of my blogs have anything whatsoever to do with my business enterprises and don't even refer to them at all in my blogs.
I "market" myself as a blogging tips blogger in the blogosphere. I have delete every follower in social networks when I discover they are actually internet marketers, who are focused on creating a relationship with me and collecting my email address based on the possibility of marketing either goods or services to me either now or in the future.
Question: Do you worry about airing your opinions openly, or do you think that you are the brand, and if people don't like it, then too bad?
Answer: I do not hesitate to air my opinions here, in my own community or elsewhere. My opinions have nothing whatsoever to do with my business enterprises. I keep them entirely separated. -
If you don't talk about business here, does that mean you keep it pretty much anonymous online?
I have to admit, a few years ago I used an alias and never gave out personal info or opinions online. I couldn't handle the two personalities, so I decided to give it up and be me everywhere. For better of for worse, being one person is a lot easier. And (for me) mentally healthier. -
Ha! Yes I do have a business which is completed unrelated to my blog as represented here at BC. When I say completely I mean completely.
I do however have another blog which is connected to my business,it is just not here neither do I promote it on twitter or the other social networks.
No I don't refrain from airing my views but I do try to be respectful.
