		<description>Great post. Plus, your list reassured me that I&#039;m at least trying to do the right things to bring in new clients. Thanks!

		<description>Anne, at least you know they found you on the internet and this media works for you. Sure, we&#039;d love to know specifically where -- but we take what we can get, right? 

Kate, I am sorry to hear twitter didn&#039;t work out. With twitter, I focus on building relationships and getting to know people. Don&#039;t give up twitter just yet!</description>

		<description>Great post, but so far the only client that I have gotten from Twitter has turned out to be un-reliable. You have to be careful with Twitter.

		<description>Meryl, most of the time I consider my clients a gift from, well, the Universe or something. Sure, I&#039;ve got a web page promoting me and I play with social media and I answer ads, and when the phone rings the potential client says vaguely, &quot;I found you on the internet.&quot; I&#039;ve yet been able to pin them down much more than that, which is okay with me.</description>

		<description>You&#039;ve got some good information about finding obtaining clients.  Of course, there&#039;s always the business card fishbowl tactic at restaurants.  Clients-a-plenty.

		<description>Thank you, George. Yes, you may go out and play. I&#039;m proud of you for eating your veggies and I know your mama is too.</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;I think that as things get tougher, us freelance types need to be prepared to look under a few more rocks.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This list is all important in terms of what it is we should be doing on a regular basis.  If you are not doing these things, you are missing out.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Mom, I finished my vegetables, can I go outside and play now?&lt;/p&gt;
