Arrested, Questioned and Convicted: Chartrand’s Legal Affairs

Recently, James had a little run-in with the law.

It all started innocently enough, with his weekly feature post at Copyblogger discussing personal branding prison.

So far, James had managed to stay out of jail himself, and life was looking good.

He managed to work in a post over at SmallFuel Marketing, giving away some valuable trade secrets on how to get more business with blog commenting.

There was no sign of judge or jury yet, so James just kept on writing. The Pen Man was on the loose, and he gave SmallFuel another post that asked, “Do you know why people buy from you?”

If you don’t, you’re in trouble.

Well, trouble was what happened around that point. Twitter big dog that he is, James (innocently enough) befriended a lawyer. (Hey. They’re really nice people. And useful, too!)

One thing led to another and the next thing James knew, he was facing more law than he knew what to do with.

The challenge? They wanted his hide. The answer?

He gave it to them. Check out what James had to say in his defense in his latest guest post over at Build a Solo Practice.
