How Bido.com Got My Link
A couple of days ago Art from Bido.com contacted me to see if I would be interested in being the guest speaker for their live chat that takes places during today’s live auction of the domain name knoxlanding.com.
Art took the time to email me a few times and then followed up with a phone call this morning to confirm that I was attending. He was also smart enough to ask me to put up a blog post and link to Bido which I have done.
All that to say that simply by asking Bido got a link that they might not have otherwise gotten. Two things to keep in mind from this exchange is:
1. Look to people you naturally associate with for links (could be customers, clients, partners, friends, and other people that you may have offline relationships with).
2. Don’t be afraid to ask (Art took the time to email me personally a few times and then he made sure to follow up by phone making it much more likely that I would do what he asks).
All in all, great job Bido and I look forward to chatting in the chat room today at Bido.com from 1-2 PM EST. If you have any questions for me then head on over there and jump on the live chat. I will answer almost any question you have but here are some of the questions that Art provided that may be asked:
