Using CPR In Your MarketingBe Consistent, Persistent, and Resistant to any negative thoughts when you don't feel it's worth your while. I call it the CPR for marketing! Keep consistent with your goals and creating positive thoughts. Be persistent with the life of your service and/or product and show that passion to others. Resist anything or anyone who hinders or stands in the way of your progress. Resist and let go so that your energy can be funneled into more satisfying routes.Here are some free and easy ways to incorporate marketing goals into your schedule. The first collection is Web sites at Yahoo.com and Topica.com that allow you to join lists and then post your promo/ad to the list. These list messages go out to hundreds of subscribers and a great way to let people know who and where you are on this ever-growing highway of information. There are other lists on the Internet as well, but we'll concentrate on these two for now. You need to become a member of Yahoo and Topica first and then you can join these lists and search out others aimed toward your niche. Read all the rules each list requires of you and if you honor them you'll gather new subscribers to your newsletter/ezine and increase hits to your Web site. This is just a short list to get you started and then you can expand at your own pace.

You join these lists and then send your articles out along with a resource box about yourself and/or your newsletter/ezine and Website. You aren't paid for these articles but it's proven to be a profitable road in advertising. Write about what you have a passion for and send them out!
