One of the most rewarding things that I’ve ever been able to do because of the blog is I worked on a campaign with GMC where we actually drove along the world’s longest yard sale and purchased items to furnish a habitat house.

It was responsible for about 5% of our sales, our blog content. A voice said, “Master, you’ve got mail.” Did anyone else install that?
