		<description><![CDATA[ by Miriam Ellis Work on the web serving clients for awhile and you'll meet them all: the absolute delight, the steady worker, the brilliant entrepreneur, the total flake, the miser, the nut and, yes, the crook. With good people skills, you can work successfully with many personality types, except for that last one - the guy or gal who is getting through life by ripping people off and who will one day phone or email you, benefit from your services and then refuse to pay you for them. I feel lucky that in nearly a decade of working in web marketing, we've attracted just a handful of crazy clients and only one genuine rip off artist. There was the client who was perfectly lovely by day, and then at night would send me totally bizarre and angry emails. I had to eventually suspect alcoholism with this unfortunate soul. There was another very strange client who sent us a photo of a construction worker to put in her logo and then flipped out when we delivered the finished logo because it had a construction worker in it. Wow, that was a weird one! We quickly refunded her money and ran away. Neither client, needless to say, appears in our portfolio; nor will the website of the worst-case-scenario bad guy who booked my time and then failed to pay. Chances are, sooner or later, this will happen to you and I want to recognize and dignify your experience by sharing my own, plus three options for handling this lousy experience. The Emotional And Financial Strain Caused By Being Ripped Off Yes, it hurts your wallet, you feelings and your pride when someone steals from you

		<description><![CDATA[ by Sage Lewis Financial services companies are the symbol and essence of reality instructors. Their compliance departments lock down communication to extreme degrees. These institutions serve as good reminders of all the people in our lives telling us what we can't do. Check out our small business news site.

		<description><![CDATA[ by Miriam Ellis Almost everyone with an interest in Local Search is trying to get a message through to the large minds at Google, in a variety of ways. The message concerns the real-life effects of inaccurate data in Google's One Box, 10-pack and Maps on the public. While a major percentage of Internet users have grown to trust the Google brand and will take Google's local data at face value, few will understand that Google views its own local applications as a wiki, community project. Let me explain why this is seriously problematic
