Social Media has become a place to create wider and deeper relationships – both personal, and business. By keeping in touch with everyone you meet you are able to maintain some level of friendliness.

Many of us Facebook and Twitter users have become acustom to reading about other people's professions, and talking about our own. There has been debate about what is appropriate when it comes to "selling" our products and services online.

One of the benefits of being active on sites like Facebook is seeing other people's needs expressed, and then being able to offer suggestions about where they can get help – or who to hire for their need.

But what do you do when you see someone asking another person for help online, when you have the same profession?

For example, Gina needs a plumber. Ed is a plumber. Gina publically asks Ed what his rates are on Facebook.

What would you do, if you were a plumber, and you see Gina's request on Ed's Facebook wall?
