	Hi,


		Tim McConeghy, Lord of Latex. Not bragging just explaining how I arrived
at this opinion. I've been on T.V., radio, newspaper, etc. and the only one
that got me gigs was a focused article on me in the local sunday edition.
Only one gig mind you. Unless the client is going to give you a 30 second
focus spot about you with none of their stuff mentioned then you are only
tertiary and none is going to remember you except those you physically hand
your card to. They could have some doofus handing out your card or sticking
it on windsheilds and I assure you it will all be for not.
		There is a connection between you and the prospective client and the
passing of the card is a, albeit weak, bond between the two. A side mention
like "CARS, CARS, CARS, PONIES, HOTDOGS ,and some loser doing balloons, THIS
SATURDAY AT MY RIPOFF CARLOT" is not going to drive your sales.
		Did I mention that a car dealer ship has the money to increase their
budget if it really mattered to them. Remember you are the best twister in
your socks.
