hello, jeremy
I live nowhere near Dallas. But if I did, I would call Jeremy over at TopGeeks every time my computer needed fixing. I have never met Jeremy; in fact up until about five minutes ago I had never even heard of him. But thanks to this blog post Jeremy gets all my future Dallas business, if and when etc.
[Insert new “Power of Blogs” thought here.]








It occured to me two days ago that a big part, maybe the main part, of what you’ve been crowing about has been other people’s blogs. I don’t know why it took me so long. And when it hit me, it felt like my idea.
And yet, the spamdexing at the bottom of their homepage makes me lose confidence in them almost immediately.
I’ll second that Ryan. And I do live in the Dallas area.
Yeah, they need to fix that…
If you lived near Milford Connecticut you’d use David Blaise at PC Service Technologies. My blog entry on him is here http://thesmallbusinesscoach.com/blog/2006/02/16/do-you-have-to-be-crappy-to-be-big/
But to expand your [new power of blogs post] I don’t live in Dallas, but my wife runs our company located near there and we’ve been trying to find somebody like him for years. Everyone we’ve found has been terrible to mediocre.
Now (assuming Jeremy works out) what you have is a blogger in Dallas who will have alerted a blogger in the UK who will have told a reader in Connecticut who emailed his wife [emailed his wife!?!?] who, without ever meeting any of these folks TRUSTS their recommendation to hire a business back in Dallas. Beam me up Scotty!
