I think in order for us to move some of our 90 Mind strategies forward such as the website, social media, vendor demos that we will have to consider these duties to be a paid position (1099).
I feel that we can recoup a large part - if not all - from vendor fees.
And I'm not really looking to hire some third party who we then have to supervise (questionable whether it solves any problems or just creates new ones).
Obviously I can manage the blogging part, start an email newsletter. But at some point I know that I can make a lot more money doing this for myself so efforts tail off.
If you think this is an area to explore - paying some members for services - then we can discuss further.
As I said I'm not interested in supervising third party social media consultants and from what I've seen most don't understand the market at all.
