Hello folks,

This is rather a continuation of the Query emails I sent a few days back.

Looking over the responses prompts me to ask this -

If most of my commerce will involve commercial software users shouldn't I really expect to expend more effort/money reaching out to commercial software users versys FOSS users - shouldn't I?

Let's take as a given:
Reading/posting to OO.o only mailing lists, forums, blogs. In other words generally active in the extended OO.o community. Participation within a broader selection of FOSS projects. Those projects which I would expect to also use in offer ing services.

OK - but I'm thinking at this moment of the question - Is that alone going to get me to the largest numbers of perspective clients?

Leading back to my first question then - Where should I be putting my personal capital of time and money to reach those individuals/firms looking to engage someone doing my type of business? (Type of business: Support in conversting from MSO to OO.o - Custom development of office automation processes for SOHO/SMB.)

I have a few ideas on this, but before putting mine up could I ask what others think about this.
1) Am I thinking clearly here, or am I just 'wrong headed'.
2) What channels are people looking towards to get out the message - to the commercial software user world?

Thanks

Drew
