Unless you're Chris Hall and have more skill than god its a tough row to hoe without actively selling yourself and the image. <br /><br />The ultimate way not to waste money on unnecessary videos etc. is simply not to have the money to waste.

They are excited about being makers and they want to talk about it with people. The advice and opinion is priceless. David Weaverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17109753309357509609noreply@blogger.com
