This is so true. I find that joining social networks is a great way to build the relationship. Especially with a site like Facebook – you can make it fun as long as you don’t overdo the applications invites.

i think that you have said it all here Sharon, relationships are a very personal matter. I too have come into contact with other writers and bloggers that I would call friends and I value the advice and support that I have received over the last 22months of my online life.

Sharon, I love how you find ways to get personal even when you can’t meet in person. No excuses.

Making friends with your clients makes life much easier. They are quicker to pay invoices, more forgiving on accidents and mistakes, and more willing to recommend your services to their friends and peers.

I consider myself very blessed to have clients that I’ve bonded with. This Friday I have invitations to a birthday toast/roast for one client, and dinner with another. Not sure what to do, but it’s a great feeling to be connected with the people you work with.

Exactly, Yvonne, which is one of the reasons your Weekend Writer’s Cafe is so great. There’s a lot of online glue there.

Thanks, and the same to you, Rebecca. It’s like the water babies: Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.

@Jen: that was beautifully put. While it takes more time for these relationships to develop, they are just as valuable as other relationships.
