Vote how SMA-UK & SMA-EU must help members?

[Andy AtkinsKruger]

OK I started another thread on this with an open question! Let's try and get some more specific feedback via a poll.

The reason I think this is important for both SMA-UK (http://www.smw-uk.org) and SMA-EU (http://www.sma-eu.org) is that:-

Debate has been all about how the organisations are run - which is important - but we also need to talk about what they should DO!

[I, Brian]

Isn't industry awareness the key issue?

[Andy AtkinsKruger]

Is that not, at least in part, covered by reputation?

[I, Brian]

Reputation for doing what??

And that's the point. :)

I figure a basic free factsheet for small businesses would be starter - distributed from the site, and also from business advice groups sych as Business Link here in the UK. Naive small businesses seem especially prone to accept telesales from companies, who promise everything, but deliver nothing. IMO, that's one place where a representative body in SEO needs to stand and make a clear distinction for the unwary.

Maybe that's something I can help with? If Barry or Ammon or Mike give me a shout, I could possibly work on a basic draft for development as an eventual leaflet.
