Last week, Patty Farmer invited me to be her guest on the NetworkingCEO online radio show. We talked about the importance of promotions, choosing shows to participate in, and what to give away. Patty also shared some of her experiences, including a story of what can happen when you don’t qualify the people who enter your drawings.
