Marketing to yourself instead of your target market
Picture yourself as a business owner with a problem. You have a problem because your company, which has been successful in the past, has been experiencing a downturn. If you are a business owner you probably do not have to use much imagination because this business owner is probably you.
When you begin to analyze the reasons of a downturn in business it is very easy to blame the economy. “All businesses are doing bad, just look at the economy!” I hear this one all too often. But what if we thought different? What if, instead of blaming the economy for our business downturn, we embrace it and actually use a slowing economy to our benefit? What would it look like for your business to be thriving in a down period?
That is exactly what I have been coaching business owners to do. In fact, I think that now is a great time to start a business. You heard it right. Instead of blaming external factors, how about we embrace them!
If the economy has changed, that’s perfectly ok. If your business is suffering now, the market has somehow changed. My question to you is what have you not changed either your marketing plan or your entire business model to keep up with the change? If you are not marketing to consumers who need your product or service then in the long run, you are really only marketing to yourself. I for one am willing to bet that you will not be able to purchase enough from your company to stay in business. Why not change?

MLM Is Not Gambling Or Sin Because Of This…
By Lou Casali
Multi Level Marketing or Network marketing is closely related to gambling, but it not a devilish sin as gambling if you perform too high; however, it has an element of moral value that is not there in gambling at all.
Let use explore on how and why?
There is one winner and many losers in gambling.
Similarly, there is one big winner and many small winners in network marketing and of course there are some that do nothing more than purchasing the membership kit.
The one that gains the big winner label is the one that makes the most money like in a gambling system, but here there are not many losers, but there are many tiny performers. Many tiny commissions from the down line form the Lion’s share.
Perhaps the winning person in MLM is he who managed to receive his share, the Lion Share, because he started early and created many down lines very early. Rather than suspecting the system, he worked to make the system good beyond doubt. He was not ready to listen that he cannot!
Again, he is just the one in the thousands, where others are still in the system arguing if they can become rich and were not becoming rich at all because they were making tiny sales and tiny recruitments.
What made him different from others was that he knew working is the only way to become rich. He worked harder than those below him. Thus he gained his multiple tiny shares of those below him and his reward of continuing to be different and hard working than others was the sum of all tiny shares from many sources equaling riches!
How MLM is different from gambling and how it is related to the concept of gambling?
- Gambling does give life changing money, but at the expense of 100 losers.
- You take the lunch off the table from many people to make yourself better in Gambling.
- They starve, but you are overfed in Gambling.
- They loose, you win in Gambling.
- Gambling is total rip off, strip off!
- The more number of strip-offs you make, the more money you win.
But network marketing is lot better than gambling and it is not a sin like gambling for many reasons below:
-Network Marketing does give you life changing money, but with the contribution of the percentage of the earning of many 100 down lines.
-You DO NOT take the lunch off the table of your down lines, but you get a reasonable share from their lunch.
-Two shares is enough to serve you a meal
-When you get 4 shares you spend it on clothing
- When you get 6 you spend it on mobile phone bills
-When you get 100 you feed your home.
-When you get 1000 you land up to the so called luxurious level.
The beautiful thing about network marketing is every time you eat your share, someone have found an answer to their hunger and they are giving you the royalty money to you for having introduced them to the system.
You donate money to god because you believe he guided you. Your down line donates a share to you because you guided them to the system.
The money you get in network marketing is a token of thankfulness. It is good money. It has happiness in it.
You get your money after someone has fed themselves. You do not let anyone starve in network marketing like gamblers to.
Every share has a moral virtue to it.
The numbers of shares that you receive matters in network marketing.

Build Your Internet Business With Google
By Eugene Ye
When thinking about launching or expanding your small business, it would be in your best interests to consider using Google to help you along. They aren’t just a search engine anymore, and with their many options and versatile tools they are able to go head to head with Microsoft in many areas. Google now has many services that can effectively assist you in operating and directing your business in an online capacity. They are able to offer you online advertising through AdWords and monetization of your content using AdSense, get your site indexed faster using Webmaster tools, and even encourage you to create a blog using Google’s Blogger. Or you can build a website using Google Website. For those of you that are uninformed as to what direction Google has headed, you may want to consider taking a few moments and read this to catch up. It may be helpful, especially if you have a business.
Building your Internet business with Google is perfect for those looking for a way to engage in full time employment as well as those just wishing to make a supplemental income. The cost to do such a thing is rather inexpensive, when you pay only for a domain name and web hosting fees per month. The steps are relatively simple and easy to understand as well. So let’s start at the beginning.
You’ve got your site up and ready to roll and now you need ways to attract traffic and make some easy cash. Google offers two advertising programs named AdWords and AdSense that can generate an influx of traffic and cash your way. AdSense can help you capitalize on your site’s profit potential with contextually targeted ads, and it allows you to customize the ads to enhance the overall appearance and user friendliness of your site. AdSense will also track and provide online reports of different formats that prove successful.
With AdSense, you are allowed to choose text or imaged ads for your site that are applicable to your viewers and your site content. Most times, the ads are so precisely matched to your viewers that they will find them valuable. The Google’s AdSense automatically matches ads to your site’s content, and each time a viewer click’s on the ad you earn money.
Another way to generate traffic and possible money to your site is to get your site indexed faster using Webmaster tools. With Google’s Webmaster tools, you are able to improve your site’s visibility, and you’re also provided detailed reports about how often and where it appears on Google. It will show you how Google crawls and indexes your site and diagnose problems with accessing it.
Your sites have been indexed using Webmaster tools, and you’ve added AdSense applications to your site. Now you need to blog using Google’s Blogger. If you don’t have an account with Blogger, create one now using the most popular keywords associated with your site and it’s context. Make sure your introduction post and profile information is creative and catchy enough to attract viewers with links to your website. You may even wish to post some examples or articles of the context related to your site along with the links to further entice traffic. Again, you want to make sure you use top queries to draw traffic, and you can find them using Webmaster tools.
Website building using Google sites can only benefit you and make your life much easier. You don’t want your site to be lost with the never ending occupants of Google’s Sandbox, and if your site is creative, maintained, and updated regularly it won’t be. The process is not as confusing as it sounds, and with dedication and time you will find your way to a successful moneymaker.
