Real Business Magazine Article
Posted by Paul Woodhouse at March 22nd, 2007
Whilst I’ve hardly had more mentions in various publications than hot dinners (and to be fair, if they were literally hot dinners, not only would most be cold by now, I’d also be discernibly thinner), I have had a bit of a sampler.
I’m not actually mentioning the last piece in Real Business Magazine for the sake of mentioning it, but for the freelance chappie who wrote it, Jonathan Holt, putting the stuff that wasn’t used in the article on his blog. Not only that but he was decent enough to send me a pdf of the article to boot. It’s always nice to be thought worthy enough to pad out an article, but I also appreciate the contact afterwards. I particularly love the fact that he’s given the piece more of a dimension on his own blog.
Maybe it’s just my limited experience, but I tend to find freelancers far more interesting and approachable as journalists and individuals than those on staff. They also seem to be actually researching a topic as opposed to churning out some guff related to one.
If only the same could be said for yours truly.
