What Are American's Thinking? Why Would They Do This?

2006-10-03T17:00:00.000-07:00

I have some shocking stats for you about American's.

It blows my mind how single focused they are and how much they badly covet to WORK, WORK, WORK and then WORK even more, at what expense?

Is that how the rest of the world works? Is that how you work?

Look at the proof - Here are the stats so you can see it with your own eyes, so you know I am telling the truth about Americans.

Average Annual Vacation Days USED By Country:
42 days in Italy
37 Days in France
35 Days In Germany
34 Days in Brazil
28 Days in Britian
26 Days in Canada
25 Days in Japan

And are you ready for this...13 Days in the United States of America!

Americans, on average only take 13 days off for fun and relaxation. And most of the time, those days are spent at the in-laws house while the kids are playing in the $5.00 kiddie pool filled with hose water on the brown dried out lawn. (ok, that was a stereotype... Forgive me... but the point was made? Are you going to the in-laws again this year to sleep on the hide-bed?)

What is everyone doing? What are Americans thinking?

Did you know that people who don't take vacations are more likely to have heart attacks, heart Ailments, and other kinds of physical problems?

People who do take vacations are more likely to have a tan for a month, positive attitudes, souvenir T-Shirts from interesting places, and a happier and better disposition on life. Travel just makes people happy.

Let me ask you something?

--------- Are You at risk? ----------

The average American spends more time in their BATHROOM than they do on a beach or in a beautiful condo or cruise boat. (and I am not counting the hours you spend IN the bathroom WHILE you are on vacation).

** Has your "big cheese" turned down your vacation request? For the fourth year in a row?

** Has you wife or husband told you... We can just camp in the backyard again this year and save some money so we can get that new High Def TV we always wanted... Instead of going to Disneyworld with the kids...

** Think Vacations are too much money? I beg to differ, it is obvious to me, that you have not looked at my site and seen one of my FREE gifts you get just for becoming a Cashflow Magic Affiliate with me?

Did you see this yet? - http://mlbest.cashflow123.com

Then, get ready to get all your pent up frustrations out and do some serious damage to your boss... yep.. you know the one... the boss!

The one who tells you what to wear, what to do, when to pee, when to take a break, what car to drive, what house to live in, what time to get up in the early, early, early am, while the rest of the world sleeps, the boss who tells you when to go home, when to take lunch, when to go on vacation or NOT go on vacation :( .... do you know that boss?

The boss you work so darn hard to please so you put MORE money in THE COMPANIES POCKET, but sit there and take it in the .... well, take it in the chin, with lousy wages and hardly any time off.... Are we getting heated up yet here gang?

It is time to take our lives back.

It is time to give it to "the Man!"

Want to help me?

Come get your frustrations out and "BASH THE BOSS!" Friday is Officially (according to MICHAEL BEST) BASH THE BOSS DAY! (cheers outside my window)!

Yes, you can do this, you can actually have FUN BASHING THE BOSS and the Boss Will never know!

You might even be at work reading this, and if you are careful, you can bash your boss right there at work and they will never know!

How .... How do you bash the boss?

Are you a Boss reading this? Better check the office, if you hear laughter out there, they are bashing you!

Go to this website, and see if you can beat my high score.

Put on your boxing gloves and see if you can knock your boss into next week or your next fiscal calendar year!

I got a score of 88.3.... Almost a record score... You gotta see this, it'll crack you up. It'll make your day. It is "laugh out loud"

-- Increased Vacation Time off--Happy Families?--More Money in your Wallet--More Freedom?--More Time off at home?--More Sleeping in?

Extra Cash Walking Dogs

2006-09-20T14:09:00.000-07:00

One of the best ways to make extra cash that you have probably never thought of is walking dogs. More people today than ever before have dogs as pets. But the fact of the matter is that they do not want to take the time to walk them for one reason of the next. Some people do not have the time to walk their dog because they are always at work, and others are too old to keep up. So what do these people do? Simply enough they hire somebody that walks dogs. Anybody can get started in this industry with a little bit of money and time.

Making extra cash walking dogs is quite possible if you put in the time to market your services. The biggest problem that people run into is that nobody knows about their services. So in turn nobody gets in touch with them about their services.

So as you can see the most important part of making extra cash walking dogs is marketing your services. Of course this is going to take a bit of money up front, but after you get a few recurring clients you will be well on your way to making your money back in no time at all.

One of the best places to market your dog walking services is in the local paper. Take out an ad that is big enough for prospective owners to see. Make sure that your ad is visually appealing, and that you also include pertinent information. Give owners the ability to contact you via phone or email. This way you are accessible enough to make the task of getting in touch easy. If somebody has to go through a lot of trouble getting in touch with you they will probably not even bother. In addition, you may want to include your rates in the ad if you think that they are competitive enough to draw in business. But if your rates are a bit higher than the competition you will not want to display them. Also, adding an incentive to call is also a great way to garner business. Offer a free walk or a discount of the first day; anything that will prompt prospective dog owners to get in touch with you.

Making extra cash walking dogs is more than possible if you market your services correctly. And if you can get in touch with a large enough base of customers making decent money is very easy.

If you want to make money walking dogs get started today. You may be the only person in your area that offers these services. Subsequently, you will have the market and profits all to yourself.

If you are more interested in making money without leaving your home then may I suggest a really easy and inexpensive way to get you started? I work this same business from my home and have had some really nice results in a short period of time. The system is called 3 Step Secrets and it is only $10 to join so you won't break the bank to get this thing started. It's really easy to follow (just do 3 steps) and you'll be on you way. As an added bonus you get me as your personal mentor so you will not be starting alone. Be sure to let me know what you think!

Seven Ways To Promote Your New Website

2006-09-19T13:41:00.000-07:00

Once you have built your new website, you don’t have time to sit back and admire your creation, the work is just beginning. Thousands of web pages are being added to the Internet every day and if you want your page to be visited, then you have to make special efforts to promote your site. No two sites are equal and there may be a particular promotion method that works best for you, however, here are seven methods that you can consider before launching your promotion campaign:

1. Get your site listed in the major search engines.

At the present time most Internet traffic is delivered by three search engines: Google, Yahoo and MSN. If you want “free” traffic, then your site must be listed in these search engines and it must appear prominently when someone makes a query using a keyword or phrase that is related to your business or your activity. Getting listed is not a big problem as the three major search engines use “spiders”(robotic programs) that scour the Internet constantly looking for new sites. The best way to be found by the spiders is to get a link to your site from a website that is already listed in the search engines. Ask your web designer, your hosting firm, your friends or business associates to link to your new site.

After a few weeks check to see if your site is listed in the search engines. If you are not listed then you will have to manually submit your site using these urls:

Google: http://www.google.com/addurl.html
Yahoo: http://search.yahoo.com/info/submit.html
MSN: http://search.msn.com/docs/submit.aspx

2. Distribute an Online Press Release.

In the offline world of business, whenever your company does something new you should let the media know about it by issuing a press release. The same goes for the Internet. Write a one page press release, around 400 words, letting the world know about your new website. Put emphasis on the aspect of your business or website that you think is newsworthy. The press release can be distributed through online services such as www.prweb.com . If you write a good release it will picked up by journalists, by blog publishers and webmasters looking for news.

3. Participate in Forums and Blogs Related to Your Industry

The Internet is becoming more interactive with each passing day. If you want to get known then you have to take part in this interactivity. Visit blogs and forums that are of interest to you. Learn something from them, and from time to time leave a comment. Don’t try to push your website or business, but add something useful to the conversation, and of course put your website’s address in your signature.

4. Write and distribute articles about your area of expertise

Webmasters and newsletter publishers are hungry for good content. If you write a 500-800 word article about a topic that is related to your business, then you can easily get it published on hundreds of websites around the net. As with your forum participation, you should not try to directly sell your business or products. Rather, if you offer good information people will begin to respect you as an expert in your field and will click on the link to your site which is usually provided in the author-information at the end of your article.

5. Submit your site to directories related to your website’s theme

In addition to the major search engines, you should look around and find directories that list sites in your field of activity. For example if you are a web designer, then you would want your site listed in directories of webmaster resources. To find these directories make a search online for something like this: “pet supplies directory”, “pet suppliers directory” and you will find strategic places where you can add your link. Just substitute your field for the term “pet supplies.”

6. Exchange links with complementary websites

One of the oldest forms of promotion on the Internet is the trading of links between two websites. Make a search for websites that are related to yours and propose an exchange of links with each of these sites. The process works faster and more efficiently if you place a link for the other site before requesting a link to your site.

7. Use paid advertisements

It takes time for some of the promotion methods to pay off. If you want to start doing business immediately, then you will have to pay for online advertising. The most effective way to do this is to participate in Google’s Adwords program. The small advertisements that you see in the right hand column of the Google search results pages, and the advertisements that appear on many websites are placed by advertisers who pay each time someone clicks on the link. Go to http://adwords.google.com to learn more about this program.

If you use a combination of these seven methods to promote your website, then you will be more than satisfied with the results.

There's money to be made on eBay

2006-09-16T09:21:00.000-07:00

Seller's Market

Garage sales and flea markets are so 20th century. Today, if you have stuff to peddle, sell it on eBay. You'll be joining thousands of other like-minded citizens who seek to make money selling their wares on the popular web site. Since everyone is hip to the online selling gravy train, you'll need to make your items stand out in order to make more money on eBay.

Size up the Competition

Before listing your items for auction, check out eBay's Completed Items listings. Here, you'll see what products are up for sale, their prices, and how they are presented. You might also get a better idea on how to title your product to produce a higher price.

Don't overload the auction site with items. You will make more money on eBay auctions if you sell a few items at the same time rather than overload the auction site.

Describe Your Wares

You have limited space for product information so make your words count. In the auction title, avoid words such as "Look," or "Wow." No one types in these words to do a search; use words that potential buyers will likely use do search for your product.

Be generous with information in the auction description. Include any product details that buyers will find helpful. Remember, a picture is worth a thousand words (or maybe a thousand dollars!). A good, color picture is essential to catch the eye of a buyer.

Shipping News

Don't tack on too high shipping/handling costs for your auctions. While your aim is to make more money on eBay, sky high shipping fees may turn off buyers. There's always another seller who will give them a better deal.

Promote Your Wares

To help make more money on eBay, it helps to advertise your auctions on a personal web page. Or, run an online store with links to your eBay auctions. Send emails to subscribers notifying them of upcoming auctions.

eBay Auction Support

eBay provides sellers with several tools to help them navigate the auction process. Automated listing tools allows sellers to post additional listings without going through the "Sell Your Item" process every time. With eBay's Turbo Lister, you can sell your wares without having to visit the web site - and it's free.

If you are selling a very expensive item, it may be beneficial to purchase an auction upgrade from eBay. These upgrades generate more potential buyers. However, the cost of auction upgrades will eat up the profit on lower priced items.

The Right Stuff

Having unique, high quality items is another way to make more money on eBay. Estate sales are great places to find specialty items such as antiques, vintage clothing, and jewelry. You may also find a few nuggets from liquidators who purchase discontinued or last season's merchandise from manufacturers and retailers.

The bottom line is to make money and have fun doing it...this is not a J.O.B. Your mindset will play an important role in how well you do in your eBay business. Both positive and negative!

Does eBay Work For Stay at Home Moms

2006-09-04T12:10:00.000-07:00

or do stay at home moms work for eBay?

If you are a stay at home mom you may be getting the urge to do something more with yourself. You may want to make a bit of money while staying at home with the kids all day. One of the best ways for any stay at home mom to make money is by using eBay.

This may sound a bit far fetched, but the fact of the matter is that thousands of people have turned eBay into a full-time job. And to take this a step further, there are many people who have become millionaires by using eBay to buy and sell items. If you work hard at it, you can be next in line for the profits that are being made on eBay everyday of the week.

At this point you may be wondering how eBay can make you money. This is something that a lot of people have on their mind. Using eBay to make money is quite simple. You will list items for sale, and then wait for other people to bid on them, or purchase at a predetermined price.

But in order to get started with this you will need to have items that you can place for sale on eBay. There are a few ways that you can go about getting these items.

1. To find items to sell on eBay you may want to become a regular at garage sales and flea markets in your area. At these events you can buy items for cheap, and then turn around and sell them for a large profit on eBay. This is one option that a lot of stay at home moms opt for when looking for items that they can sell on eBay

2. Another option to consider is making your own products, and then listing them on eBay. For instance, some people make crafts such as candles and then list them for sale. You may not think that there is a large audience for this type of thing, but there are many people that make a lot of money doing just that.

3. Stay at home moms can get their start on eBay by selling items that they have laying around the house. Chances are that your garage or attic is full of junk that you no longer use. But just because you think that the items you have are junk does not mean that somebody else will. By just selling items that you have in your home you may be able to get your start on eBay. And with the money that you initially make, you can then in turn buy more items. Pretty soon you will notice that your profits are growing.

EBay is a great way to get started in an internet business but it is not for everyone. You can put in some very long hours not to mention numerous trips to the post office and office supply store (for shipping supplies).

A better way to do business on the internet is to leverage both your time and money with a proven system that is easy to start and very inexpensive to operate ($10.00). Visit my resource box below for more information.

Tips For Promoting Your Home Business Web Site

2006-09-03T14:11:00.000-07:00

Traffic on the freeway is bad. Traffic on the Internet is good. With over 60 million web sites on the Net, you need a solid strategy for steering customers to your home business web site.

Search Engines

Search engines are the yellow pages for a home business web site. Over 80% of Internet surfers use search engines to find information on the web. To get the most traffic to your site, list with the big search engine players Yahoo, Google, and MSN. Smaller search engines also get results from the big three so you'll be covered in case customers visit less popular engines.

Looking Good

Your home business web site can be simple or complex but it must be functional and attractive. Make sure your site does what it is supposed to do - provide customers with concise, useful information about your product or service. Be wary of making things too complicated. The site should be easy to navigate or customers will look elsewhere.

Your home business web site should also look professional, not cheap. If you aren't design savvy, spend money on a good web designer. The investment will pay off by attracting more people to your web page.

On-line Ads

The Internet has many sites where you can list your home business web site for free. To guarantee the greatest exposure, place your ad on several (20 or more) sites and repeat the process every month.

Banner advertisements can be as effective as TV spots in increasing customer awareness of your business. A banner ad should be direct, i.e. promote a benefit of rather than just the name of the product or service. Try participating in a banner exchange program such as LinkExchange that connects your home business web site to other company sites that have similar customer bases.

Affiliate programs offer an excellent opportunity to promote your home business web site. Affiliate businesses post links to your web page on their sites. You pay them a commission or set fee based on the amount of traffic sent to your web site. Pay arrangements vary and can be based on the number of people who visit your site or the number of customers who purchase your product.

Bloggin' It

Bloggers are the hot new information medium. Getting them to write about your home business web site is an excellent way to gain exposure to potential customers.

Technorati Blog Directory provides a listing of blogs by industry. Do your research here to determine which blogs might be interested in writing about your business. Send a short, personal email to a few blog writers describing your web site and asking the blogger to write about it. Offer the writer something in return, for example, free product or a link back to his blog on your web site.

Off-line Ads

Cruising Down the Highway

Your car is a moving billboard for a home business web site. Window decals and bumper stickers are inexpensive ways to get the word out about your web site. Spend a few extra dollars for a personalized license plate with your web address.

Old Media Standby

Regardless of what the bloggers say, people still read the printed page. Run ads in the classifieds of large and small papers, trade magazines, and free weeklies. Your choice of print media will depend on the product or service offered and whether you do business locally or nationwide.

Working at Home for Stay at Home Moms

2006-09-02T10:01:00.000-07:00

Avoiding Home Business Scams

2006-09-01T12:53:00.000-07:00

How many times have you heard about a great home business opportunity? Probably more than you care to remember. But to go along with this how many of these home business opportunities ended up being a scam? Again, probably quite a few. Hopefully, you were never the victim of any of these scams. But unfortunately there are others who probably fell for these “opportunities.” The fact of the matter is that these scammers would not be wasting their time if they were not making any money. And as long as people continue to get mixed up in this business, these scammers are going to stick around to trick more and more people.

The best way to avoid a home business scam is to thoroughly research each opportunity before you move forward with it. This means doing much more than simply reading a bit about it online. You may get lucky and end up with a good home business opportunity, but chances are that you will not. Not only will you want to read what is available on the site itself, but you will also want to search for other information as well. Check with third party review sites and on message boards and forums. You may find out soon enough that a certain company has been reported as being nothing more than a scam.

You may also want to check with the Better Business Bureau if you are thinking about getting involved with a home business opportunity that you are not sure of. They will be able to tell you if they have any complaints on file. If they do, you will want to avoid the opportunity at all costs. But if it appears that a company is doing business the right way, you can continue your research.

Before you decide to do anything, attempt to get in touch with the company that you are interested in. Can you get them on the phone? Do they respond to your emails? If you cannot even talk to a company before you start, there is not chance that they will be around when you need them. This is one test that you can run early on in order to ensure that you are dealing with a reputable company. If you do happen to get an employee on the phone ask them questions in order to get some feedback on the company. Anything that will give you better insight into the home business opportunity is a good question.

Overall, home business scams are all over the place. Do your part in putting them out on the street by not falling prey. The best way to do this is through extensive research and questioning.

Work At Home Industry Is Booming

2006-08-31T12:59:00.000-07:00

More people leave the office grind behind to work at home.
Whether downsized, outsourced, or sick and tired of cubicle
"box-in syndrome", more people are earning their living by
working at home. The work at home industry is booming
with a diverse lot of income earning opportunities. People of
all skill and education levels can find a niche in this market.

Telecommuters

Technology has enabled former office rats to do their work
at home. Armed with a computer, fax, and telephone,
employees from back office data entry to management staff
are able to perform part or all of their jobs at home. The
telecommuting option is appreciated by workers as it allows
them more freedom and control over the work day and
more time to spend with families. Companies find that this
set up often improves employee morale and productivity.

Net Work

Earning money via the Internet has become an increasingly
popular option in the work at home industry. Chances are
you know someone who sells merchandise on eBay. Many
online merchants are working out of their homes. The
Internet offers a wealth of opportunities for writers to earn a
living at the keyboard. People with an Internet-based career
often start on a part-time basis while working their regular
office job. Once their "web job" takes off, they escape the
office grind for full-time work at home.

Home Base

Another option in the work at home industry is a
home-based business where you go out in the field to
provide services for customers. This is a wide open
opportunity - think of any product or service that people
need and, viola, you have a business. The senior population
is exploding. Start an elder service that helps seniors with
light housekeeping, grooming, and transportation. Two
career families and busy folks in general equal a business for
you running errands such as shopping, chauffeuring kids,
and picking up dry cleaning.

You can strike out on your own with these home-based
businesses or buy a franchise. Franchises offer a brand name
people know and trust along with marketing support from
the headquarters office. Start up costs can be out of reach
for a lot of people, however, there are hundreds of franchise
options in the work at home industry that will fit with small
budgets.

Scam Alert

The Internet and print and broadcast media are full of ads for
great-sounding work at home opportunities. Sadly, the work
at home industry is full of scam companies that advertise
high income home-based jobs. Some ads are specific while
others are vague and keep you in the dark about the exact
nature of the pie in the sky venture.

Remember, if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
Do your research before you plunge into any work at home
opportunity. Talk with others who are working at home.
Check out franchises or Internet opportunities with the
Better Business Bureau. Despite the scam artists, there are
thousands of options in the work at home industry and one
of them will suit you.
