I found myself getting very thoughtful reading these comments, I like the
idea of trying to get rid of the impression of "replacement" that I might
be putting forward in my discussed contacts, especially when there is the
distinct chance of it being the webmasters that get the email instead of
business owners. Maybe what I need to do is concentrate on nailing down
exactly what my web developing strengths are, and focus on promoting those
instead of making general offers. (?)
