When it comes to marketing the choices are clear: market to your reader. But the "where" to find your reader has changed as more and more of our lives migrate online. A recent article on how offline media is succumbing to the 'Net talked about a flurry of newspapers diving into online content, online ad placement, and online forums to push more of their feature pieces, reviews and editorials into a virtual medium. Even industry standards like the Wall Street Journal and the New York Times are moving more and more of their content to the website. So what does this mean for you? Well, it means that the lines between on and offline are becoming even more blurred. It used to be that if you had a few select publications that you were pitching you could contact their on and offline departments and possibly be considered for interviews or feature pieces in both of them; that's not the case anymore. Sometime an online feature means that you can kiss your offline exposure goodbye, so it's good to ask before you start pitching. Much of the online content is now pulled from the offline source, so while this could work in your favor, better to be certain if you have your eye on print coverage. That said, you might be better off being on their website, where you'll get lasting exposure. But media promotion isn't the only factor in marketing, in fact, there's a lot you can do without even heading into the media realm. Consider these ideas: * Craig's List: have you been on this site recently? If you haven't, take a few minutes and run through the listings for your city. It's a great place to promote yourself but be careful, the Craig's list people don't like a "salesy" type of pitch but prefer something more folksy and casual. If you surf the site for a while you'll see what I mean. You can use Craig's list to promote your event, your product, even your service, but they key is, don't look like you're promoting. Also, keep in mind that often regional media will surf this site looking for events they can cover, so get yours listed there now! * Virtual networking: it's not just for trading business cards anymore. If you're trying to gain platform or gain media exposure, heading on over to sites like http://Linkedin.com can be a good way to start your network and gain additional exposure. Also, sites like MySpace have gotten a bad rap as predator sites, but only a marginal portion of people on this site are there for nefarious reasons. While the MySpace age does tend to skew younger, there's virtually a place for everyone and every message on this site. Not a MySpace person? Try http://eons.com instead, this site targets the over 50 crowd and offers another great place to market your book and message. * YouTube: this site isn't just for singing pancakes; in fact, more and more authors are moving snippets of signings, speaking gigs or other visual promotion tools to this hot new resource. It's a great link back to your site.* Social bookmarking: have you been doing your social duty lately? Posting to sites like http://del. i.cious.com could really help to spread your message like wildfire. Sometimes a few sites is all it takes to start the buzz going in your market.* Consider the overlooked media: As the bigger papers are moving their content online and vying to keep readership interested, the smaller overlooked papers like The Bastrop Daily Enterprise in Louisiana and Arkadelphia Daily Siftings Herald in Arkansas are booming. Their readership is loyal and their papers always hungry for content. Have you poked around in the smaller regional newspapers yet? If you haven't, you might want to. You might find that while it's great to have an online presence, the further we get into Web 2.0, the more these publications are overlooked by pr people.The 'Net has opened up a bunch of opportunities both online and off, take your focus off the norm and start exploring some new territory, you might be surprised what it can do for your campaign! http://www.doctorinteract.com/blog/2989 ... /p/179504/ オークリー ジュリエット 靴 mbt マークバイマークジェイコブス バッグ oakley サングラス マークバイマークジェイコブス 財布 オークリーメガネ

Times have changed.A $2 Billion Indian mobile handset market is set to grow by over 60% in two years. Pretty dramatic. Nokia has 59% market share of the 60 Million user base. Cellular networks cover only 30% of the country, set to increase to 75% by 2006. Presumably 100% by the end of the decade? Contrast this with just 10 years back. I had to wait 8 months to get a set of business phone lines installed for my new company. How delicious it must feel to all those who have known and suffered under the old system!Development's strides are bold and broad. Satya Paul saris today cost as much as Armani jackets. A rapidly growing middle class breezes through the milestones that their fathers had to toil all their lives to reach. A phone. A watch. A TV. A car. A house. Vivekananda had said, "Arise, awake, and stop not till the goal is reached." 200 Million people are still living in abject poverty. That is 80% the size of the US population. How long will it take, before development's magic wand touches this segment, and lifts them out of despair?Long. The journey ahead is still very long. http://www.greenspeck.com/profile/ingeb ... ode/172770 トリーバーチ バッグ トリーバーチ バッグ miumiu バッグ トリーバーチ サンダル マークバイマークジェイコブス トートバッグ マークバイマークジェイコブス バッグ

According to IHS, a common migraine headache, also known as a migraine without aura, is defined by the specific criteria found below.FrequencyThe patient must have at least five of these headaches.DurationThe headache, excluding attendant symptoms or prodromes, must last a minimum of four hours, up to seventy-two hours. Headaches that last over seventy-two hours generally require immediate medical attention in order to rule out other, more dangerous conditions. Pain DescriptorsIn order to be classed as a migraine a headache must include at least two of four different qualities of pain:1) The pain is one-sided; the headache is primarily on one side of the head.2) The pain is not constant; it throbs, pounds, or pulsates.3) The pain must be of moderate or severe intensity, to the point where the sufferer is inhibited in daily activity, potentially to the point of being temporarily disabled. 4) The pain is increased, sometimes only slightly, by routine physical activity like bending over, climbing stairs, or moving quickly.Side EffectsHeadache pain must be accompanied at least one of four common side effects:1) Nausea2) Vomiting3) Photophobia - sensitivity to light4) Phonophobia - sensitivity to soundSecondary ExclusionsAppropriate medical testing, such as a MRI or CAT scan, and/or a physician's exam must be conducted to rule out other conditions that may have caused the headache. These criteria have helped simplify the diagnosis of migraine for many. However, because migraines are historically associated with extremely high levels of pain, people suffering from moderate migraine may not realize that is what they are experiencing. http://viavio.net/index.php?do=/profile ... /ReggieFab トリーバーチ トートバッグ marc by marc jacobs バッグ oakley サングラス ポールスミス 財布 マークバイマークジェイコブス マザーズバッグ トリーバーチ サンダル

If you are thinking of taking up a new credit card, there are many ways to safeguard you get the best deal. Whether you're considering one of the major visa credit card issuers or a smaller company, the only way to make your loan work for you is to investigate the terms and conditions before committing yourself.Some people choose to take the easy option of visiting their local bank and signing up for the product most similar to the one they want, but, with a little research and planning online you can be virtually guaranteed of getting the product you want from one of the major visa credit card issuers other than your bank.Before searching out any new credit product it's advisable to list the benefits you expect from your card so you can get the best match around. For example if you're suffering from a bad credit history you may be looking to improve your credit rating or if you fly often you may want to sign up with a card that has an air miles loyalty scheme attached to it. Once you have made your list of priorities it's always a good idea to check out your current credit rating with one of the online credit checkers before applying for any card. This service is free and takes no time, with only a simple form to fill in to get the information you need. Knowing what cards are within your reach in advance is beneficial to the application process as major credit card issuers will check with companies such as Equifax before accepting any application, and a rejection will register on your credit rating in the same way an acceptance would.Once you are prepared for an application and know what you want from the product, the next step is to visit a credit comparison site to learn what products each of the major visa credit card issuers have within your remit. Comparison sites offer an independent means of research on most types of card, including those that are designed to build your credit rating and those for students. There are also helpful articles and in some cases even Podcasts relating to the products you are searching through so that you can be confident of knowing exactly what you're getting involved with. Reading these expert and third party opinions may take time out of the application process but will enable you to look at each product in the most even light. Cutting through the advertising and persuasive introductory offers, these sites and articles will make you aware of the pitfalls of credit cards as well as how to benefit most from the card you have chosen.Making applications for credit cards online has the bonus of an instant decision, which saves time on waiting for a postal application to be processed and returned to you as well as the hassle of visiting your bank. Although some people are still nervous of giving their personal details online, all of the major credit card issuers have invested in secure software, which not only processes your application almost instantaneously but also encrypts your details at the same time. This means that even if you've never bought or applied for anything online before you can rest assured your details are safe and irretrievable to third parties.Any type of credit card will only work best for you if you spend a little and pay back more than the minimum requirement. Ideally if you can repay the balance on time every month your credit rating will rocket, but since this is out of most peoples reach, consider how much the interest on your loan will be and how soon you think you'll be able to repay it. Major visa credit card issuers are looking for customers who are able to pay above the minimum, and will reward the usage of their product in this way. http://momomo1.betoku.jp/article/065246 ...

Who does not want a Low Interest Credit Card? And if so what stops you from getting one? A Low Interest Credit Card is one that goes with a low interest for a long period and other charges and fee, like the one for balance transfer are also low. Understanding the relevance of such charges therefore is required, particularly when each credit card company makes a different offer. It is important not to jump into conclusions. Your decision needs to be prudent, and one taken after making a comparative study among some credit cards that suit your requirement. Special attention has to be paid on the terms and conditions, and also you have to look out for hidden charges. On the internet you can find a number of credit card sites which will make your search a lot simpler. The informative articles you find in such sites shall enlighten you on aspects you were ignorant about, and also provide you the list of credit cards, along with the incentives they offer. You can even apply for the card on these sites after you make your choice. Certain Low Interest Credit Cards will hike their interest rates once the introductory period exhausts. In case your card does not hike its rate, or if it offers a 0% introductory rate, here is your chance to clear debts. You have to be wary of the fact that in case of a 0% card, once the time expires the new rate may be quite high, which is undesirable. The advice is to pay attention to the standard interest rate as against the initial benefits. If you are under the burden of the credit card balance, switching from a high interest card to a low interest one is the way out. This switching offers a temporary relief which aids you to turn things in your favor and help you attain financial stability, just with a little thoughtfulness. You have to keep in mind that credit card companies prefer those with good credit records, and ones with poor credit history will find it difficult to get a low interest rate credit card or 0% introductory offer, leave alone rewards and discounts.Someone who wants a Low Interest Credit Card to consolidate his debts will have to keep in mind that, such cards may charge high annual fee, transfer fee etc. The add-on cards, ATM withdrawal and cash advance may also cost you dearly. In case the low or nil rate of interest is only for a set period, be prepared for a reversion to high rate after the period expires. There are cards that offer 0% introductory rate and low rates later on, and some cards charge low interest on cash advances and such other benefits.So as to reap the benefit of rolling over your high interest card with a balance to low interest one, you have spend some time on research. Never forget that the ignorant one is always taken for a ride. Your effort must be to clear your debts during the 0% introductory period. Even the relief from the burden of minimum repayment for a period can also make a lot of difference. Low Interest Credit Cards have programs meant to help people who carry a balance on their cards. These cards help them in making purchases, or in case of a balance transfer. http://tweet.dkdjabar.com/blogs/viewsto ... -big-bliz/ miumiu バッグ トリーバーチ バッグ オークリー　サングラス oakley radar クロムハーツ リング トリーバーチ 財布

As with all other business opportunities, conducting research is essential. When you partner with eBay, you are essentially becoming a merchant of sorts, using the site to reach a larger market. As a merchant, you should be able to answer two basic questions: what will you sell, and where will you buy? For all the obvious reasons, you want to provide a unique product, hopefully filling a market need. The key to success is to find a profitable niche where you either can dominate the competitors or one where you have no competitors at all.I'll say that again: The key to success is to find a profitable niche where you either can dominate the competitors or one where you have no competitors at all.There are two main types of sellers on eBay. There are business sellers and garage sellers. Garage sellers, as the term implies, are those who sell various personal knick-knacks on the web, much like in a garage sale, albeit to a larger customer base. As a matter of fact, the items are usually pre-owned, and many ebay sellers base their their whole business on garage and estate sale finds! Of course, some garage sellers just want to get rid of some of their older property. Business sellers, on the other hand, are those who operate on eBay for the primary purpose of earning a profit. While still a minority, many people are being added to this category everyday. Some have earned so much that they have found keeping their day job unnecessary! To attain this level however, you will have to keep a few things in mind. First, treat your eBay venture like a legitimate business. The trick to making money with an eBay business is to simply treat it like one. It might start off as a hobby or a sideline, but you should very quickly get serious if you want to earn significant amounts. You may want to create a business name, open separate bank accounts, and accomplishing the necessary paperwork to establish your venture. After that, give it your best shot. Offer great products at low prices, back it up with excellent customer service, and you have a recipe for success.Second, specialize. You can't be an expert in all the categories in eBay; you can't possibly understand the value of EVERYTHING ON EARTH! To be successful, you should concentrate on just one or two areas, and focus all your energy on those areas. Become an expert in your chosen areas, and the chances of making good trades (and therefore making more money) exponentially increase. Third, learn to communicate well. Napoleon used to tell his secretaries, "Be clear, be clear, be clear!" You must follow the same policy. Learn how to write auction listings that accurately describe your product, and don't neglect to include all relevant details, such those involving shipping and handling, return policies, etc. Not only must you communicate well, you must communicate in a timely manner. Try to respond to all questions promptly and courteously, and try to be in touch with your winning bidders from the start of the transaction to its close. This, along with a profitable niche product, is the secret to making money with an eBay business. http://cinecloudfilms.com/index.php?do= ... ewhajimari miumiu　靴 トリーバーチ バッグ mbtシューズ 販売店 mbt靴 マークバイマークジェイコブス マザーズバッグ オークリー　サングラス

What is Guerilla Marketing and how can you use it? Guerilla Marketing is the use of avant-garde marketing techniques intended to get greatest results from the smallest amount of resources, which let's face it; in today's economy plays an important role. Today, guerrilla marketing is a non-traditional, low-cost, and highly effective marketing endeavor, which when used properly can reap huge rewards for the diligent user.To further your career or business, it is imperative that you market in ways that are new and unique in order to catch someone's eye and get ahead of your competition. The first step into the guerilla marketing zone is to think outside the box. What does that mean? Don't do what everyone else is doing. Here area few ideas to get you started:1. The use of podcasts has become very popular in the past years, so why not use them to broadcast your business, book or product, helping to expose it to a lot of people who may have never seen it before. Make sure that you plug your website and where they can purchase your products.2. Check out your library system! Why not go to your local library and see if can do a free speaking engagement there in exchange for a percentage of your sales of product after your show. Libraries are in dire need of funds. Additionally that will help you align yourself as an expert in your field for future marketing purposes.3. A very easy and free way (free is for me!) to get your name out there and seen is to write reviews on every product your own, have used, read or CDs you have listened to. Then post the reviews on places like amazon.com and barnesandnoble.com. Amazon and Barnes and Noble will no longer let you put a two or three line sentence / bio at the end of each review that has any personal information so don't go there. Recently they changed their policy and will take down all of your reviews should you do this and they find them. However, you can post your URL in the Real Names attributes. When you post your reviews, put your vanity email address inside your "real name." While those sites won't allow you to post your URL, if your URL is part of your "real name," they don't say a word. Check out amazon.com and look for one of my reviews. This is what you will see: "Jaci Rae raeofhope@jacirae.com." (Don't use a real email address or you will end up with a lot of spam. That is my website, but the email address if fake.) Why is this an important step? Because people will read your reviews and you get your name out there. Most consumers are Internet savvy and if they are interested in you, will check you out.4. Junk snail mail. Why not use it to your advantage? When you receive junk snail mail, many times inside with their ads they have kindly sent a pre-paid envelope. Why not put your brochure, business card or a letter inside announcing your product with a note that says something like, "Since you were kind enough to send me your information, I am returning the favor. " Also, inside of all the bills you have to pay do the same. I have gotten business doing this.With a few ideas of your own and a little leg work you will be surprised at what your efforts will yield. A very important part of the guerilla marketing process is the business side. The trick is that if you want different results and what you have been trying in the past always turns out the same, then you must do something different! Guerrilla marketing is what you need to do differently. Go after your audience with fervor and diligence, but think outside the box to get the results you desire and the exposure for your product that you need. http://www.hanniu.org/cp.php?ac=news&op ... imo-shoes/ オークリー　レーダー miumiu キーケース mbt サンダル オークリーサングラス トリーバーチ 靴 marc by marc jacobs バッグ
