Hey Guys,

I'm hearing this argument from opposing sides
one guru says

"You should build brand equity...it lasts more than quick sells,
its easy to extract money from people fast but it will affect
your followers loyalty and your market position"

Other guru says

"If you're not selling, you don't have a business...I make millions
with a 60,000 Facebook fan page while other guys have
1,000,000 fans and can barley break 6 figures...selling is
where the money is at which is why you're in business"

So what do you think? Do you think having a gazillion
fans on your social media sites are worth it?

Do you think you are better off focusing on direct
selling? (providing a product to the right people)

What are your thoughts?
