It has
been over 100 degrees for most of the week
here
and it is awful for business, peoples' health
and
even our pets. Last night we got the first rain
of the
month, it poured for about 5 minutes and brought
a tiny
bit of relief. Oh, how I long for Autumn!

What's
Wrong With Your Promotions?
(c)Copyright
2007 Larry Johnson
How
many times have you been frustrated with your
promotional
efforts online?
Let's
face it...most folks working online are amateurs
when it
comes to promotion. They simply don't come
to the
internet prepared with the tools, experience
and
background in advertising and promotion.
The
learning curve can be pretty steep when it comes
to
learning to promote effectively. There is a wealth
of
information and resources available on promotion.
In fact
there are so many helpful sites and resources
that it
is very easy to become confused with the whole
process.
Searching
the internet for promotion resources
provides
you with lots of sites and gurus who will
promise
you the moon in exchange for your hard-earned
dollars.
I have
a desktop full of software and promotional items
that
for the most part go un-used. If I had the money
back
that I have invested in them, my wife and I would
be able
to vacation for two weeks in Cancun.
Finding
a few dependable sites and trusted webmasters
who
will act as a mentor in your learning process is
one
good tactic to consider.
Personally,
I have developed a small group of allies
online
that I can rely on to discuss problems, find
answers
and bounce my ideas off of them.
You
will discover that the old adage, "Never get in
a hurry
to buy or sell.", is still true today. You
can
easily run out of money buying this and that
amazing
promotional gimmick, software, service or
product.
There
is plenty to buy online, but there are tons
of fr*e
resources available too.
Here
are a few suggestions as you work through the
process.
-- Be
Organized
Set
aside some time each day to work on your
promotions.
Don't get caught up in surfing
the net
or other time-wasters.
-- Be
Observant
What
are other successful sites doing to promote their
businesses.
If it works for them, chances are it
will
work for you too.
-- Be
Creative
There
are lots of ways to promote. Not all of them
have
been used yet. Do some brain-storming each day
to get
the creative thoughts flowing.
-- Be
Determined
Working
online can be downright discouraging for many
who
expected to find the gold at the end of the
rainbow
just by building a site and throwing up some
affiliate
links.
While
the learning curve for learning to promote
effectively
online is a steep one, you can do it
with
some determination and with little damage to
your
pocketbook by being selective in the resources
you
choose to use.
Where
will your promotional efforts be one year from
now?
Will you still be doing the same ol' thing?
Or are
you now ready to put into practice a plan
of action
that will bring you some great results?

Quotes
There
is nothing so comfortable as money, -
but
nothing so defiling if it be come by unworthily;
nothing
so comfortable, but nothing so noxious
if the
mind be allowed to dwell upon it constantly.
If a
man have enough, let him spend it freely.
If he
wants it,let him earn it honestly.

The
Laws of Life
Law of
Mechanical Repair
After
your hands become coated with grease, your nose
will begin
to itch.
Law of
the Workshop
Any
tool, when dropped, will roll to the least accessible
corner.
Law of
Probability
The
probability of being watched is directly proportional
to the
stupidity of your act.
Law of
the Telephone
If you
dial a wrong number, you never get a busy signal.
Law of
the Alibi
If you
tell the boss you were late for work because you
had a
flat tire, the very next morning you will have
a flat
tire.
Variation
Law
If you
change lines (or traffic lanes), the one you were
in will
start to move faster than the one you are in now
(works
every time).
Law of
the Bath
When
the body is fully immersed in water,
the
telephone rings.
Law of
Close Encounters
The
probability of meeting someone you know increases
dramatically
when you are with someone you don't want
to be
seen with.
Law of
the Result
When
you try to prove to someone that a machine
won't
work, it will.
Law of
Biomechanics
The
severity of the itch is inversely proportional
to the
reach.
Law of
the Theater
At any
event, the people whose seats are furthest
from
the aisle arrive last.
Law of
Coffee
As soon
as you sit down to a cup of hot coffee,
your
boss will ask you to do something which
will
last until the coffee is cold.
Murphy's
Law of Lockers
If
there are only two people in a locker room,
they
will have adjacent lockers.
Law of
Rugs/Carpets
The
chances of an open-faced jelly sandwich landing face
down on
a floor covering are directly correlated to the
newness
and cost of the carpet/rug.
Law of
Location
No
matter where you go, there you are.
Law of
Logical Argument
Anything
is possible if you don't know what you are
talking
about.
Brown's
Law
If the
shoe fits, it's ugly.
Oliver's
Law
A
closed mouth gathers no feet.
Wilson's
Law
As soon
as you find a product that you really like,
they
will stop making it.
Doctors'
Law
If you
don't feel well, make an appointment to go
to the
doctor, by the time you get there you'll
feel
better.
