Can you think of how, not too long ago, you were able to control the entire flow of info that exists about yourself? You could, without a lot of effort, control just what people knew about you and how they could find out about it. Sadly, this isn't true these days. These days, people have many ways to find out whatever they wish to find out about you. This is hard for people who work "regular" day jobs offline. For people whose work is completely on the Internet, though, it's much harder. Now, an errant online posting could mean the difference between closing the sale and not closing the sale.

Can you recall when you were able to maintain the flow of information about yourself? It was possible that, without a whole lot of effort, you could control exactly what other people could know about you and the manner in which that information could be found. This is not true these days. Nowadays, people have numerous means to find out whatever they want to find out about you. This is bad enough for individuals who work off of the internet in "normal" jobs. For those who work online, though, it is even scarier. Your earnings could be entirely obliterated by even an off the cuff remark made in a tweet.

Thus,, what must you do? What's the master plan? The key to remaining successful and making sure that your reputation stays stellar both online and off is to be as professional as possible at all times. Read the tips below.
  
1. Ensure that every last thing you write down is spelled correctly and is grammatically correct. It doesn't matter if you're just composing a quick instant message to someone or writing your sales page. Spelling and grammar are essential. The last thing you need is for a prospective customer to find something you've written and see that it is riddled with spelling and grammar mistakes. It proves that you do not know what is what.

1. Ensure that every last piece of writing you craft has the proper spelling and punctuation. It doesn't really matter if you're just sending a a short text to someone or composing your sales page. Spelling and grammar are important. After all, you don't want someone to see something that is riddled with grammar and spelling errors, do you? It demonstrates that you don't have any idea about what you are doing.
  
2. Always answer your e-mails and telephone calls. Your responses and conversations must be civil and cordial and positive. Never allow an e-mail to sit unanswered in your inbox for over a day. Try not to leave telephone messages unreturned. Try to pick up your telephone by the third ring. These are little things but they will speak greatly about how dedicated you are to your job.

2. See to it that you reply to every last online message and telephone call. Keep your conversations and responses amicable, positive and polite. Never allow an online message to sit unanswered in your inbox for over a day. Do not leave voice mail messages unreturned. Each and every call must be answered before the third ring. These are small things but they will speak greatly about how dedicated you are to your job.
  
3. Accept negative feedback courteously and positively. The internet is full of people whose primary goals are to make you feel awful about yourself. Nevertheless, there will be some who have real issues about your project and how it is presented. Try to accept every last criticism in your heart and ask yourself if you are able to make the alterations that the person wishes to see without having it be detrimental to your project. Next, get in touch with the person with the problem and let him that you are going to fix it (if, indeed, you will actually fix it. If you won't, let him know that too). This demonstrates that you value all of your prospective customers, not just those who compliment you.

3. Respond to criticism with civility and positivity. There are constantly going to be people who would like you to feel awful about yourself. Nevertheless, there will, now and then, be individuals who have a valid problem with your product or how you're marketing it. Take every criticism or suggestion to heart and ask if you could genuinely make the improvements the person wishes to see without it harming your business. Next, you need to contact the person with the problem and let him that you intend to fix it (if, indeed, you will actually fix it. If you won't, let him know that too). This proves that you value your potential customers, not only those who compliment you.
  
4. Keep an eye on your social media! When you're in the realm of social media it's not too difficult to forget that you're not merely a random individual; you are representing your business. Tweets and Facebook messages that are overly informal may be suited for the person they are directed at. They could also be misinterpreted by someone who stumbles on to them as evidence that you're not serious about your reputation or business.

As a matter of fact, one of the better ways to make yourself stand out is to let who you are shine through your work. Still, at the same time, don't forget that you're representing your business, so try to keep your best face forward.
