yes. unless you are into spending endless hours on twitter and facebook, forget about it! If your into that kind of thing, then you can "fake it ’til you make it"
Greenashevilleblogspot.com, have you been to any of the classes? Or spoken to anybody who has?
If you want to learn how to pimp yourself on facebook and twitter this is the class for you. If you have a life, don’t bother!
