We're Posting every week in 2011!
We’ve decided we want to blog more. Rather than just thinking about doing it, We're starting right now and will be writing a post a week on this blog for all of 2011.
We know it won’t be easy, but it might be fun, inspiring, awesome and wonderful. Therefore We're resolving to make use of The DailyPost, and the community of other bloggers with similiar goals, to help us along the way, including asking for help when we need it and encouraging others when we can.
If you already read our blog, we hope you’ll encourage us with comments and likes, and good will along the way.
We wish you much success in 2011,
The Friedman Group, LLC

A recent Denver Post article touches on a subject I've been grappling with for several years. It boggles my mind that people think an e-mail, text or tweet has tone. It's true. What we write and post in some fashion on the Internet, has a tone. Once we make peace with this concept it's important to consider this fact, every time we communicate with anyone. By now, I hope you've realized the Internet, and social media, is here and a force to be reckoned with. The article provides some good tips for better communication. (more…)

Take four minutes out of your day to have a look at this video describing the power of social media. This is why we formed The Friedman Group, but more importantly, it's why we need to stop thinking social media is a fad. It's time we took social media seriously. It's time we took advantage of all it has to offer, while recognizing there are things we need to be aware of, like guarding our privacy. Watch the video, then leave a comment letting me know your initial reaction to what you saw. (more…)
