Today is Brag Basket day

By Small Biz Survival

brag basketEach Friday, I open the brag basket as a fun place to brag or promote yourself and your projects.

Last week, I bragged about getting some bloggy attention, and Phil bragged on his customer service webinar and the promo video. Congrats, Phil!

What will you brag about this week? You can brag on your business, your community, or your self. You can even brag on other folks, if you want. It’s fun, and you get a link back, not to mention applause from us.

You can leave a comment right now, or Twitter me.

The Brag Basket has no deadline, so don’t wait. Brag now!

    Hi, Sandra! Congrats not only on being featured, but also for trying something new! I know you’ll be making multimedia use of your materials, too. Great job!

    Kevin Kennedy-Spaien Twittered a big brag: he’s gone full time in new media podcasting consulting. Read his announcement, and wish him well!
