YES! There are plenty of ways and tools to market yourself, where you won’t see residual income. But using places like Twitter.com, or Vois.com is definitely a start.

It’s really nice to see that a number of things you mentioned are part of my day to day routine. And as for the comment that “you should never be finished”, you’re absolutely right, even if it does get a bit much when you’re still reading the news and networking at 1am! Still I’d always rather be doing that than sitting in ANY office at 3pm…

Hi Joanna – that’s the difficulty: making sure you keep the admin and marketing activities running even when you’re busy.

The activities that you mention often fall by the wayside during busy times, so I agree that it’s important to make the most of any quieter times. While they’re not ‘billable’, networking, blogging, CV updating etc always pays off and keeps the work coming in over the long-term.
