More love -- from the newspaper

After my name appeared in the local paper last week announcing my certification, I received calls of congratulations from various colleagues and business partners in the area. But I also received some notes of congratulations in the mail from total strangers as -- I assume -- a biz dev initiative. And not from people you might associate with the industry my association represents or the nonprofit world: One was actually from a realtor. It came across a little huckster-ish.
