responders just exchange a small classified ad
to put at the bottom or top of each other's
autoresponder message. 4. Start a free tip line. Offer a free daily, weekly,
or monthly tip recorded on your voice mail. The
tips should be related to your business. Include
your ad for your web site or business at the
beginning or end of your message. 5. Exchange content with other web sites and
ezines. You could trade articles, top ten lists, etc.
Both parties could include a resource box at the
end of the content. 6. Offer to insert ads into your product package
for other businesses. Just ask, in return that they
do the same for your business. You should only
trade insert ads with businesses that have the
same target audience. 7. Offer a free daily class in your web site's chat
room. The class should be related to the subject

Business In 2010: A New Face of Marketing
The term "internet marketing" was virtually non-existent a short 8 years ago, now it is a growing phenomenon that is raking millions every year. Because of this expanding industry, the internet landscape it changing. Where are the changes going to be? I fully expect a growth in interactive end-user experiences - an online environment catering to the individual preferences of a singular visitor. I also foresee a massive change in the way we market online. A change could include "personalized" advertisements embedded so deeply into the product that the user does not realize it as an ad.

I step outside my back door and look at some large limbs lying on the ground. They are all dead. We've had the remnants of Hurricane Frances and Ivan come through here the past ten days.

Testimonials - FREE Quality Advertising FOR YOU!
Every business person who has any kind of product or service, and the merest
beginning of marketing sense, invites TESTIMONIALS.
These might be called "reviews" or "peer reviews" or "customer comments" but
they are all testimonials - a third party endorsement as to the merits of a
product which helps another potential customer decide whether they wish to
engage with this product or service.
Customer testimonials are a wonderful thing for the merchant/marketer, because
customers often pick up on benefits the marketer hadn't thought of, and their
use of personal words and phrasings can bring the product/service to life in a
whole new way.
Whenever I am asked by someone to submit a testimonial, I am always delighted.
If I like the product or the person involved, this is a wonderful opportunity
for me to pay back in kind whenever I can.
Because I always heed a call and have written many reviews and testimonials, I
learned that there are AMAZING BENEFITS in testimonials - you actually get much,
much more that you give on this occasion!

Pricing Strategies in Marketing
Price is an often overlooked marketing strategy, as many tend to focus on promotions or advertising. Pricing strategies, however, can have a large impact on sales and (more importantly) profit. The price is what your customer pays and/or what the end consumer pays for a product or service. In the case of products not sold directly to the end user, pricing is often described as "wholesale" and "retail." When the distribution channel is long (such as when there is a manufacturer, broker/distributor, retailer, and end consumer), multiple mark-ups can occur between the wholesale and the retail price.
