Social Network Etiquette

At this second I am very upset that people would advertize their business on my blog post. I recently posted a video demonstrating a complete skin care regimen and how little time it takes to do each day.
I also posted this video on several other social networks. The other day I am notified that someone made a comment on my page so I looked. I could not believe what I was reading. At first she indicated that she was happy that someone finally had done a video like mine and how she liked it. But then she went on and introduced herself and her company. She is a skin care consultant and was promoting herself, her company and her products. This made me upset. We did this video to promote Bonita Botanicals and to educate people on the use of skincare. I do not think it was right for this person to go on and on about her own company. To me, this is very poor etiquette and should not be allowed. We work very hard to promote and market our skin care and it is so upsetting to have someone use our platforms for their own gain.

  1. I know what you mean. Cool video, by the way. Anyway, just recently I was on my cafemom page and recieved a friend request from a mom who seemed interested in being a friend. SO I accept her and all. She comlpements my page and everything. Then all of a sudden her "hi how are you's" became "so do you or would you like to work at home?" after I told her I didn't want to work at home my whole all her friedly posts and check ins just stopped. I should have known. I wasted no time deleting her off my friends list. I added you tomy blogroll! So I will be checking in! Lol ;-)
