Does anyone remember years ago when a company

called x.com arrived on the net scene and was

offering $25 to open an account and $10 for

all referrals who did? I was afraid it was

a scam so only told maybe ten people and it

turned out not only was it REAL, they became

paypal. Some of the people I told who really

had the drive and contacts made thousands.

 

well, there is another one and I have checked

it out as far as I could get into TO check out

and I do believe it is legit AND the best part

is you do not even have to give your banking

info if you do not want to fund the account-

so, I tried to send a solo out last night but

for whatever reason could never get it to LINK

to ME - there is a *invite a friend* option so

if you are interested, email ME and I will send

you the invitation.  send it to jantd@charter.net

Well, once again I get what I want for my

birthday! I get Madison on Sunday night and

get to keep her til Tuesday. She was so happy

when her Mommy let me tell her that SHE was

my b-day present, lol. Since turning two in

January, she has turned into a real jabberer

like her Mom, her Aunt - and, okay, okay,

her grandma!  :-)

 

She is so awesome, of course I am not at all

biased, it is just fact. *smile* She was on

the phone but kept playing in between *stories*

and when I asked her once what she was doing,

I could just imagine her rolling her eyes when

she answered, "Hello- I am talking to YOU,

Gramma" like duh, silly old lady, lol.

 

I am not sure if it is the even number or what

but for some reason, turning FIFTY FOUR does

not sound as bad to me as 53. The kids think

it is funny that I am a '54 model AND turning

54. But then again, look how much longer it

will take the '88 and '92 models to be the

same age as the year they were born, lol.

 

In lieu of flowers and candy, you can all just

send me a dollar. With 2000+ doing so I can

finally get a computer born in this millinnuem.

Who's Visiting Your Website and What are They Doing There?

 

Have you ever wondered who is visiting your Website and

what they're doing there?

 

Although it's never a good idea to speak in generalities

when it comes to people (after all, we're all unique

individuals), there are a few basic personality types –

and certain common behaviors or characteristics that you

can use to your advantage when it comes to creating your

next Internet Marketing Campaign.

 

Let's start with the personality types. Based on the

"Social Styles" type of personality classification,

you'll find:

 

Analytical. People in this classification are logical,

detail and task-oriented. They want facts.

 

Expressive. People in this classification are supportive

of others, expressive and outgoing. They tend to go with

their feelings.

 

Amiable. People in this classification are loyal,

dependable, consistent and hardworking. They like to dig

until they ferret out all the available information.

 

Achiever. People in this classification are go-getters,

driven, forceful and practical. They make decisions

quickly and don't want to waste time.

 

So how do you design your marketing campaign to meet

the needs of all these different personality types –

especially when you're just starting out and money

is tight?

 

The best way is to come up with a plan ahead of time,

and provide information in the ways that it will be

best received by the different personality types.

 

Still confused? Here are some things to keep in mind

that will help:

 

Remember your marketing campaign goals. What do you

want your visitors, prospects or customers to do?

(Give you their contact information? Make a purchase?)

Make sure that whatever tactics you're using will help

you achieve your goals. And from there, use tactics

that will do one of these three things:

 

Attract visitors to your site. Attraction methods can be

anything from articles to videos to blogs to Podcasts.

It can be using social media sites to your advantage

or creating a following among readers of your Blog.

 

Convert visitors on your site. This means get your

visitors to take whatever action you want them to take.

It could mean signing up for your newsletter (giving

you their contact information), buying a product or

attending a Teleseminar.

 

Retain their loyalty. Once you've converted them,

you want to keep them happy and coming back for more.

You retain customers by offering an ongoing newsletter,

providing some type of customer loyalty program or even

keeping them involved and engaged through social

networking sites.

 

The more you know about who's visiting your site and

what they're doing there, the easier this becomes.

 

There are plenty of ways you can "spy" on your visitors.

For example, if you have a Google account (and if you

don't you should – they're free and they offer lots

of goodies), you can sign up for Google Analytics.

 

It's free, and it will give you lots of very valuable

intel about visitors to your Website – such as how

people are finding your Website (search engines,

direct search and referred from other sites.)

 

It will tell you what keywords visitors used to find

you, what pages they visited, how long they stayed –

even what page they were on when they left.

 

By knowing this information you can increase your

ROI (Return On Investment) for any Internet

Marketing Campaign.

Positive Quotes

 

Genuine security arises from actual, first-hand knowledge

that one is both capable and worthy of achieving happiness

(through conscious, responsible action) and, once having

attained it, that he deserves it.

 

-- Michael J. Hurd () American Motivational Speaker

 

 

and

 

From long familiarity, we know what honor is.

It is what enables the individual to do right

in the face of complacency and cowardice.

It is what enables the soldier to die alone,

the political prisoner to resist,

the singer to sing her song,

hardly appreciated, on a side street.

 

-- Mark Helprin () American Novelist and Writer

Hi Jan, when you have time take a look

at this anti-virus system.

 

Along with Norton this is the other one

I use and have not had a virus, trojan,

or any of that stuff in years.

 

They claim that this is also the one

the government uses.

************************

 

Good morning Jan,

 

I have enjoyed your emails over the years. I have a list

too so know how difficult it is to get a newsletter out.

PLEASE don't ever give my email address to anyone to use.

I would prefer not to get advertisments other than what

is in your newsletter. I have nearly 4000 people on my

newsletter and they would be extremely upset if I sent sp^m

to them and most would drop off the list. I do not want to

be removed but please don't send this kind of thing to me

anymore. Let us know in your regular emails what is

available.

 

Thank you - I hope your day goes better than you expect,

Mary Findley

>> hello, Mary

 

I am so sorry, it does SEEM like I gave your email address

and all the others in the database but that is not so - if

you notice it went to ISSUES@RIMDIGEST.COM as a GROUP,

none of the addresses were shown or given and after I sent

the email out I found out that only individual addresses

that were sent to COULD sign up by invitation to EACH

separate address.

 

I totally understand and agree with your concerns and have

NEVER shared the subscriber addresses and would not.

 

I am mentioning it in the issue today that I have to send

one on one with the address of their choosing if anyone

wants to do so or at least see it.

 

Jan <<

 

just think, you can have your feedback in this

section with a link to you or your biz, hint, hint.
