Love Those Telephone Solicitors!

Hey, I'm just like you! I absolutely go spastic over these unwanted, bothersome calls -- at least I used to! Here is how I've learned to make lemonade out of these lemons: It is FUN, so EASY, and you just about have a captive audience, as they really don't know where you're going, and they will listen to you! The first one I ever did went like this: The gal said, "May I speak to Mary Wilkey. . .

Methodical Backwards Marketing

Backwards, I say, because you first start where you want the customer to take action. You have to ask yourself how you want the customer to respond and work backwards from there. For maximum effectiveness, do not mix methods. In most cases, include only ONE of the following in your advertising, online and off: Your website address. Your toll-free phone number and/or home phone. Your email a. . .

Getting Pumped!

"Hype, hype, hype, and more hype," I thought as I found a seat at a recent weekend's motivational seminar. "It makes my backside tired." Not being a "morning person" anyway, I was still groggy from having forced myself to roll out for the fifty-mile trip on a dreary, rainy, foggy morning. To make matters worse, I'd overslept and gotten lost en route to the Radisson Hotel at the Cincinnati Airpo. . .

The Lemonade Stand Mentality On The Net

Remember the old days when you were a little kid? You wanted to make some extra money during the summer months and so you decided the best way to do it was to open a lemonade stand either in front of your parents house, or on a good street corner not to far from parental supervision. Ok, so you set up your stand, making some makeshift table and sign from materials you had handy at home. Free of. . .

Patience

How many a man has thrown up his hands at a time when a little more effort, a little more patience, would have achieved success? ~ Elbert Hubbard Were there some way to accurately tabulate the statistics on the answer to this question, I think it would be a mind boggling figure. The reason I have come to that conclusion is plain and simple. Human beings in general have very little patience. Th. . .

What Is The Meaning Of Life?

What Is The Meaning Of Life? by Robert Taylor The purpose of life is that which you give it. Its meaning is different for each and every one of us. My definition of the meaning of life is very likely not the same as yours. You may agree with some parts of what I consider to be the intent of life, however it is unlikely you will agree with everything I propose concerning this matter. Some will. . .

The Las Vegas Cash Machine

Not too long ago I bowled the "High Roller" tournament in Las Vegas at Castaways Hotel & Casino, and it was interesting to say the least. No, I didn't walk away with the $100k first place prize, but I did get a learning experience I'll never forget. Speaking of learning experiences.

Subscribing To An OptIn List!

Has anyone been misled about subscribing to an optin list? Most people know that when they subscribe to a newsletter or any thing else, that occasionally you will receive other offers. Most of us who publish newsletters spend hours trying to get the article just right, editing all the ads we receive and a hundred other things.

Wouldn't it be nice if some of those ads you receive in your email everyday were true? Some like this, you can make a million dollars This year, just click here. OH Boy would that be nice. I have been marketing different things on the Internet for 6 years now and I have not come close to that. Don't fall for any of this. Making money on the Internet is very hard to say the least.

Just Wait Until Next Year!

I was born and raised in Illinois. We seem to have a special saying here in Illinois, if you are a football fan or a baseball fan you already know what it is. At the end of the ball season, you will hear Illinoisans saying just wait until next year. The reason being here in Illinois we very seldom have a winning team. The die hards never give up. When the ball season starts again they just kn. . .

Are You Feeling Like You Failed?

I spent a long day yesterday getting my newest site built and uploaded. I then worked into the night promoting the new site http:. . .

I have probably been taken in as much as anyone by the scam artist. I could have got down in the mouth and worried for day's. However I didn't do that. When you live as long as I have you know these bumps are coming. Instead of getting all down in the mouth because someone got you, look at it as a learning tool.

Rowing Against The Current!

This past weekend, I was completely remaking one of our web sites for the third time. Just can't get it to look like we wanted it. First the gif files refuse to work, finally I got them working and some of the pages do not load. Sitting here at this keyboard I am getting very disgusted. I finally just sit back and start doing some thinking. I started thinking, that marketing on the Internet is . . .

The Secret to a Prosperous Life, Online or Off - Part 2

My next discovery/conclusion was that, if I'm ever to succeed in accomplishing my income goals online (or off line, for that matter), I need to first of all decide EXACTLY what I want out of life and what kind of income I'm trying to establish to fulfill those dreams, so that I can conjure up a concrete mental picture of it.

Not knowing beans about computers-or the Internet-or marketing, really, I plunged ahead. And for a then-53-year-old grandmother, all three entailed a giant learning curve. The comp. . .

CAN'T NEVER DID ANYTHING!
