I'm as self-promoting as the next guy.
There was a time when self-promotion was considered so verboten, especially for authors.
I'm really bad at self-promotion.
Shameless self-publicity works, of course: living your life as a soap opera.
I'm good at marketing myself through the columns. But compared to other people I know, as far as networking and pushing yourself out there, I'm not very good at that.
The path to success used to be up and through an organization. Now the path to success is increasingly through self-promotion.
I probably should be thinking of better ideas on how to promote myself, but I don't really spend a lot of time doing it. I really don't know how to promote effectively.
