“Next to doing the right thing, the most important thing is to let people know you are doing the right thing.” Talk about marketing… It is the case of “if a tree falls in the forest and no one hears it…” (I am paraphrasing). No matter what you think about doing good things and adding value, you have to tell someone about it and hope they do the same. Thanks for the great post.
Cheers
