Hi, Judy,

Got the link to your video on Twitter from David Meerman Scott. Thanks for posting…it was very informative. I’m gearing up to start my own PR agency again in a couple of months. I’ve done both the corporate and solo gig and I can say from experience…solo is the way to go! There is no salary amount you can attach to freedom.

Thanks, again.

Thanks for responding David. I happen to agree with you, although it’s quite the jump. It’s a mind puzzle of incredible proportions and takes a lot of courage. Just getting a taste of that over the last few years has convinced me. Sometimes the road less traveled can be cluttered with a monkey mind of doubt, calling for one to draw on every ounce of resilience and confidence – but the rewards can be so fulfilling.

Hi Judy!

Thanks for including my stuff in this video.

Going solo is the ultimate in security. Many people think having a job is security, but it is not because you could lose you job at any time. When you are solo with multiple clients, losing one does not mean losing your income.

Its sounds weird, but really — solo is the ultimate in job security.
