Lloyd,
Do you know the readership of that site?
I am all for producing useful content to draw attention to your business. But be sure that the content is going where your customers are.
If you are working B2B, there are many publications that cat…
As a former shop dog, my advice is to show how to retrofit existing cabinets as much as installing in new.
Custom cabinets can be built to accept lighting systems, but adding them to existing or "ready built" can be a frustrating challenge.

I manage social media for Laguna Tools among others. Their booth, 5634, is not far away, I'll have to drop by and see what you have!
Jenna,
Just as a tip, always mention you booth number when discussing trade shows so we know where to stop by!

John,
Excellent points!
I will be presenting two professional seminars at IWF this year: one on common plastics in the woodshop and one on adapting Lean Techniques to custom shops.

So if Black Beaver builds custom high end furniture for example, I would be providing information to customers on w…
$99.99 for that set from Eagle America. Watch for sales, I think I paid about $70
This is pretty good. I can see it being effective in smaller shops where a 40+ foot machine is too big and cost too much. Speaking of cost, any idea on how much a set is?
Carol,
I use a few different methods. Facebook is mostly reserved for my personal stuff, but the lines there are getting blurred as more vendors and magazines are "friending" me there. :)
I use Twitter to broadcast new items on my website, or arti…
Social Media is how marketing is being done today. Members will share how they are using social media optimization, social networking and other online tools.
My shop is in a detached garage on my personal residence property.
I do deduct the proper percentage of taxes and interest as well as electrical, but don't go much further than that. I try to write off as much as I can, but when it comes to the IRS…
