Ask my girlfriend, Sandra, she will swear by my results. Rather than flapping my soft male boobs, she asks me to flex and show them off every time I take my shirt away. The betterment in my self-confidence level and opinions about my own masculinity is just beyond explanation."

Killing your own product

noreply@blogger.com (HmD) — Tue, 17 Mar 2009 14:18:00 +0000

Killing your own product; well that sounds completely ridiculous. Why would I want to kill a product that is selling well for me and which has made my business profitable. Why would I want to compete with myself.

Well, I can guarantee you that whatever product you make, sales will eventually flatten out during the end of the products sale life cycle. As competitors align and organize themselves, they will seek to "kill" your product and in most cases, when products die because of growing competition, it is very difficult to resurrect them as it may get lost in the sea of your competitors products.

So why should I kill my own product?

The simple answer is that you will be in control of your own destiny. I am not suggesting that you just take your product line out of stores, but you should make products specifically designed to replace your own product in the market. The new product should be better in all respects and more ingenious than any product competitors can even consider. This product should be created long before sales in the old product has flattened out. Preferably, you should have a fully developed new product when sales in the old product has started to increase. Promotion for your new product should begin at the point when sales for the old product is rising, because by this time, competitors and followers have released similar products. Your new product should be released close to point sales begin to flatten out. The later can be done earlier depending on the level of competition, but the trick is to be the leader and not the follower. You most be proactive and not reactive.

This simple concept will increase your chances of keeping your business competitive amidst waves of attacks by competing companies.

Practical Article Marketing Tips - How Do You Decide Who to Learn From on the Internet?

noreply@blogger.com (HmD) — Tue, 17 Mar 2009 14:00:00 +0000

Practical Article Marketing Tips - How Do You Decide Who to Learn From on the Internet?
By Jeff Herring

One of the most important questions you have to answer for yourself as you build your business is who are you going to listen to and learn from in Internet Marketing and Article Marketing? This is especially true now with so many marketers vying for your attention and screaming "me, me, me!"

I have found that there are 3 types of "teachers & trainers" on the internet, and only one type is always worth following:

Type 1 - Someone who has read a book or gone to a seminar on a topic, has never successfully done it, and is now going to teach you how to do it. I recommend my RLH response here: Run Like Hell!

Type 2 - Teacher has successfully done what you want to learn, is going to teach you, but is no longer doing it. Approach with caution: while you might be able to learn some good tips and strategies, you will be learning what got them where they are, not what they are doing right now to be successful. You won't learn leading edge new stuff.

Type 3 - Teacher has successfully done what you want to learn, is going to teach you, and continues to do what is being taught. With this kind of teacher you get it all: what got them to where they are, what they are doing now to continue to grow, and what are the new next steps and strategies to keep you moving forward.

This is the kind of teacher with whom I will spend my time and money. A great example is Alex Mandossian and TeleSeminar Secrets. TeleSeminars got him where he is today, he is my TeleSeminar Mentor and trainer to many others, and he continues to do TeleSeminars to build and grow his business.

My recommendation: Learn from and follow only those who have done it, are teaching it, and continue to do it in their own businesses every day.

This is why I created The Article Marketing TeleSeminar Club to train you how to build your business with Article Marketing & TeleSeminars: I've done it, I'm teaching it, and I continue to do it everyday, consistently bringing to the Club Members the leading edge strategies that I am using today to build my business with Article Marketing & TeleSeminars

You can get the Full Story on the Article Marketing TeleSeminar Club and come on board for half price for the first month simply by visiting http://www.AMTeleSeminarClub.com

Come join me and hundreds of members as we build our businesses together!

Rob presents Picking Stocks Perfect Timing To Sell Your Stocks posted at Picking Winning Stocks.

"While quite a bit of time and research goes into selecting stocks, it is often hard to know when to pull out – especially for first time investors. The good news is that if you have chosen your stocks carefully, you won’t need to pull out for a very long time, such as when you are ready to retire. But there are specific instances when you will need to sell your stocks before you have reached your financial goals."

Best Article Writing - Revealed - 6 Secrets to Explode Your Article Writing

noreply@blogger.com (HmD) — Mon, 16 Mar 2009 06:37:00 +0000

Best Article Writing - Revealed - 6 Secrets to Explode Your Article Writing by Sean R Mize

If you are looking for effective tips that can help you create outstanding articles, you will not need to look any further. In here, I will share with you some of my secrets that have taken my article marketing strategies to overdrive. So, read on!

1. Start with keywords. Keep in mind that keywords are your best friends when writing your articles as they help you easily connect with your target market. Before you start writing your content, I suggest that you do a keyword search first using either paid or free keyword suggestion tools. This is the easiest and fastest way to get the pulse of your target market and learn about the information that they are looking for when they go online. You will need to list down all the popular keywords and convert them to great topic ideas.

2. Go with interesting titles. Never underestimate the power of well-written and interesting titles as they have a direct impact on your success or failure in this endeavor. An outstanding article title has these elements; keyword-rich, benefit-driven, descriptive, short, and thought-provoking.

3. Write well. Of course you would want to give online users great reading experience so you can make them feel that you do appreciate the time they spend reading your articles. Avoid annoying them by making sure that your articles are well-written and easy to understand. Aside from using perfect grammar and the most appropriate words in getting your message across, it would also help if you can punctuate properly.

4. Empathize. One of the best ways to build rapport with your readers is to make them feel that you do understand where they are coming from. Make sure that you empathize with them when you are discussing about their pressing issues and make them feel that you are genuinely interested in helping them out.

5. Love what you do. It is virtually impossible to excel in this field or in any other field if you hate what you are doing. Treat article writing as an enjoyable task and don't force yourself when you don't feel like tapping on your key board so you will not sacrifice the quality of your copies.

6. Proofread. Don't post your articles online unless you are 100% sure that they are free from any error. Your content must not only be well-written but it must also flow smoothly.

Jack Schmidt presents There's No Bear Statue On Wall Street posted at SectorMatic Money Journal.

"You probably know that in terms of market trends, the Bull is the symbol of aggressive financial optimism and prosperity, and the Bear stands for the lean times. There’s a charging bull at the foot of Broadway on Wall Street, a couple of blocks from the New York Stock Exchange. This puppy weighs 7,000 pounds and is made out of bronze. That’s a lot of beef – uh.. figuratively speaking. The Wall Street Bull was a Christmas gift from a guy named Arturo Di Modica to the people of New York City following Black Monday in 1987.But Wall Street has no bear! True story. It turns out the bear is on the opposite side of the country on a lonely stretch of Highway 101 about 300 miles north of San Francisco. But more on that a little later."

Jack Schmidt presents Can You Really Travel For Free? posted at SectorMatic Money Journal.

"Getting away from it all should be a breeze, not a source of tension. You work hard, and you mind your money. Yet somehow there's not much left over for the fun stuff. Hey, even machines need regular maintenance. Have you ever stopped to think that you could get away to a glamorous tropic locale, dance the night away shipboard, or jet to a suave European city without paying a dime? Sure you have! There are ways of doing exactly this - efficiently, morally - and all you need is a little planning and the right kind of footwork. With a little activity, you really could travel for free, or even get paid while doing it."

Things To Avoid While Blogging For Businesses

noreply@blogger.com (HmD) — Wed, 11 Mar 2009 17:05:00 +0000

Author: Nate Rodnay

Corporate blogging is gaining momentum very fast these days. Business blogs are for providing information and news about the events and products of the company. In fact, a business blog represents the business itself. So, it is as important to be careful and clear on things can/can’t do while blogging.

Things to Avoid in Corporate Blogging:
There are few things that can be avoided while blogging on behalf a company –

Irregular content updates
It is very likely that the readers are always enthusiastic for new updates in the business blogs. They expect the blog to post about the current trends, latest products and services etc. Posting at long intervals will make the readers disappointed. So, it is good to avoid irregular or long posting intervals in business blogs.

Irrelevancy in content
It is very important to post only valuable information in a business blog. It is what the readers will be expecting from a business blog. The blog should give helpful and relevant information to the customers and other viewers of the blog about the products and services. It should avoid unnecessary content that can confuse the readers and destroy the credibility of the company.

Quirky titles for posts
Avoiding cryptic, vague or apathetic titles is always recommended. The title must be interesting enough to drive the reader to the article. The title or the headline should clearly represent the post precisely.

Flashy page layout
The appearance of the business blog should create a professional and decent impression on the business. Flashy templates with some clutter dominating the actual content might make a negative impression. The page should not be crowded with the unnecessary tools and widgets though some widgets like RSS feed and bookmarks can be used to provide easy access of the blog to the readers.

A business blog can help a business to interact with the target market or their employees itself on a more personal level while building the credibility. A small blunder here can effect the reputation of the business and it can be irreparable. Hence, it is very crucial to avoid the above things in order to maintain the credibility of the business.

LCD vs. CRT Monitor Comparison

noreply@blogger.com (HmD) — Thu, 05 Mar 2009 15:04:00 +0000

Author: C. Deveraux

Text and images (scans of census records) are crisper and sharper and the LCD monitor is easier on your eyes. Monitor's size: Traditional monitors are similar to a TV because both of them have the CRT (Cathode Ray Tube). That is the reason for its bigger size. It therefore occupies more space at the desk. It is also heavy.

However, LCD monitors have thin flat screen. Therefore occupies very less space and is lighter than the CRT monitor. LCD monitors can be fixed even on wall. Display Size: Even though the display size of a CRT monitor is calculated diagonally, the actual display size is smaller. For instance a 17" CRT monitor will actually have a display size of only 16" However, the display size of 17" LCD monitor will have 17" display size. Resolution: CRT monitors can show different resolutions. The resolution can be changed as required. LCD Monitors will have Native Resolution and therefore has a fixed resolution. The best resolution will be the native resolution for that LCD monitor. Viewing Direction: A CRT screen can be viewed from all directions. And from different distance. But LCD monitors cannot be viewed from all directions. LCD monitors can only be viewed straight. Therefore its viewing direction is limited. If viewed from other directions the colors will change and sometimes the vision will be unclear if not viewed straight. But in recent years the new LCD monitors have improved on this defect. Radiation Emission: The radiation emission in CRT monitors are higher. This will not be visible normally but it will affect eyesight and may cause head ache. Long term use of these monitors may even affect the eyes adversely. LCD monitors do not have this type of Radiation emission. Therefore LCD monitors are good for the eyes. Price: CRT monitors are priced very cheap. However they consume more power. LCD monitors are priced higher, but they consume less electricity. Though the electricity consumption is not very significant for personal use, it is very cost efficient in big organizations with many computers.

Monitor

Text and images (scans of census records) are crisper and sharper and the LCD monitor is easier on your eyes. Dot pitch: This is the space between dots and is measured in fractions of a millimeter, e.g., .25mm. The smaller the number the better because the dots are tighter. Many manufacturers don%u2019t even list the dot pitch anymore and you probably won%u2019t be able to tell the difference between a .22 and .27 pitch anyway. So, if you like the monitor then don%u2019t worry about the dot pitch. Passive-matrix vs. active-matrix: Do not buy a passive-matrix monitor. I seriously doubt you%u2019ll even see one for sale, but%u2026just in case. Having said that, there are some new passive-matrix technologies that are worth buying. If the monitor isn't TFT (a type of active-matrix), look for CSTN or DSTN (the latest passive technologies). Brightness: How bright is the picture, expressed as cd/m (I have no idea what the units mean). Look for a brightness level of 200 cd/m or greater. Again, if the monitor specs don%u2019t list this value (not all do) be sure you can get your money back. If the lighting in your office (kitchen table) is subdued the brightness factor won%u2019t be as important as if you have a lot of sunlight streaming in. Don%u2019t pay extra for extra brightness unless you%u2019re worried about bright sunlight. Overall, the contrast ratio will have a bigger impact on picture quality. Monitor's size: Traditional monitors are similar to a TV because both of them have the CRT (Cathode Ray Tube). That is the reason for its bigger size. It therefore occupies more space at the desk. It is also heavy. However, LCD monitors have thin flat screen. Therefore occupies very less space and is lighter than the CRT monitor. LCD monitors can be fixed even on wall. Display Size: Even though the display size of a CRT monitor is calculated diagonally, the actual display size is smaller. For instance a 17" CRT monitor will actually have a display size of only 16" However, the display size of 17" LCD monitor will have 17" display size. Resolution: CRT monitors can show different resolutions. The resolution can be changed as required. LCD Monitors will have Native Resolution and therefore has a fixed resolution. The best resolution will be the native resolution for that LCD monitor.

CRT

Speaking of easy on your eyes, there isn't any glare, and the flat screen means no distortion. By the way, even those expensive old-fashioned flat screen CRT monitors have some distortion. Monitor's size: Traditional monitors are similar to a TV because both of them have the CRT (Cathode Ray Tube). That is the reason for its bigger size. It therefore occupies more space at the desk. It is also heavy. However, LCD monitors have thin flat screen. Therefore occupies very less space and is lighter than the CRT monitor. LCD monitors can be fixed even on wall.
