Guest Post by Ashley Wilson, Freelance Writer  How to Provide the Personal Touch in Five Easy StepsIf there's one thing that suffers under automation, it's how cold and impersonal technology can be.

The Scoop on Keeping Your Small Business Customers Happy and Engaged
Small business owners and savvy marketers know that in order for your promotions and sales efforts to be most effective, you should know as much as possible about your potential customer; what their habits are both online and off, their income, commute habits, communication preferences, etc.
