Are You Building a Business or a Downline?
A common mistake *A LOT* of affiliates make is to focus too much Energy on building their second tier and not enough on selling Their business on the first tier.I myself belive that two-tiered affiliate programs are overrated, If you have a website that PRE-sells effectively you stand to make Quite a bit more by concentrating your efforts on your first tier.Simply put, if you plan to make a living online and build a serious Source of income from affiliate programs, you cannot rely on others To sell products for you.When I got started I had this ‘great’ idea of applying to a few programs, Then signing a ‘motherload’ of sub-affiliates and reaping the benefits of THEIR efforts.Did it work?Ahem………… NO. I came to the realization that it is nearly as difficult to Sign sub-affiliates as it is to make direct sales. You cannot simply join A program and promote your team building link everywhere you go.* Remember between 95-98% of affiliates never make a profit!*Even if you sign a hundred affiliates under you, you still cannot make a decent living off of the commissions generated by their sales.The best way to generate a good source of additional income from affiliate Programs is to find a high

Do the successful novelists know what makes for their success in writing novels that sell?

Does Danielle Steele know consciously what sells her novels? Has she told anyone? What is her great secret of effectiveness, for she is the most successful living author on earth with over 500 million of her books sold. Yes, I read that as a fact somewhere, and I believe it, having analyzed one of her books.

Not only does Danielle Steele write exciting books but she has THE SECRET. It is not what current New Age Sales People try to tell you THE SECRET IS, which seems to be, THINK POSITIVE AND YOU WILL DRAW POSITIVE ENERGY TO YOU.

The secret for the successful novelist is:

CRAFT: CRAFT! CRAFT! CRAFT!

Not talent alone. Not writing good sentences. Not having a great writer's imagination only. Not being a celebrity and that is what sells your books. Not having media publicity and so that makes you a best-seller writer.

CRAFT SELLS BOOKS.

CRAFT IS THE SECRET OF EFFECTIVENESS IN THE NOVEL WRITING BUSINESS.

PR When Managers Take Control
Things can change fast!Tactics will probably no longer dominate the public relations plan. Instead, when needed, they’ll hopefully assume their properly limited role as the primary means for moving a publicity message from one point to another.But in their place, at the top of an organization’s public relations effort, professional business, non-profit, government agency and association managers will instead marshall the resources and action planning needed to alter individual perception leading to changed behaviors among their most important outside audiences. And then follow up by persuading those key folks to his or her way of thinking, moving them to take actions that allow their department, group, division or subsidiary to succeed.What a difference that’s going to make as managerial public relations is at last applied. The reason why is really the underlying premise of public relations: People act on their own perception of the facts before them, which leads to predictable behaviors about which something can be done. When we create, change or reinforce that opinion by reaching, persuading and moving-to-desired-action the very people whose behaviors affect the organization the

If we are honest with you, how could I possibly be smart enough or wise enough to give you and me one of THE BIG SECRETS IN LIFE?

How can anyone know what THE SECRET is?

Yet, let's take a shot at it. First, may I be bold enough to say that almost nobody under seventy knows what THE SECRET is. Fortunately, I am over seventy!!!

All kidding aside, what is the SECRET BETWEEN SUCCESS AND FAILURE?

Let us start with a premise: You have to look at the character of a person to evaluate whether they know A SECRET OF LIFE OR NOT. Are they:

developed beings, integrated and whole?
do they exploit others by lying to them or selling them a job?
do they prove they are successful by leading integrated lives?
to they practice what they preach and have positive results?
in their own sphere of influence with those they know to they make a positive contribution to their lives?
do those who claim to have THE SECRET also deal effectively with the NEGATIVES of life, THE GREAT TESTOR?

You can make your own list. These are the guidelines I have used in my life developing myself and interacting with other people of note.

Shall we add one more? Let's!!!

ARE THE PEOPLE WHO PROCLAIM THE SECRET MAKING A LOT OF MONEY OFF OF OTHER PEOPLE BY PROCLAIMING THEIR SECRET? Are they using money and prosperity as a chief measure to you that their secret works?

Here's the flaw in such reasoning.

A true to reality life principle works because it is effective. Does your Proclaimed Secret make lot's of money for the few or for the many who buy your hype and your product? Being successful for the few is just by chance out of the many. A few make it and many don’t. It's just like the guru phenom. The guru makes it and buys Rolls Royce's. The followers remain poor and inadequate sinners while the guru or pope is seen as glorious and realized. The One and The Many again. Don't think that because a few look successful that the many will also who also practice THE SECRET.

THE SECRET IS EFFECTIVENESS IN LIFE!

Did you know that? It's my secret. When I was in school and university I could almost always get the highest grades when I wanted to and studied hard enough. It was fun. It made me feel important. It gave me a sense of ego, that I am different and better than the rest of them.

For some strange and evil reason school systems foster this approach by giving better grades to the few over the many. They foster competition and egocentricity. It took me awhile to realize that getting the best grades was a false measure of life. School and the educational system is not the real world. The academics who run that system are in retreat from the real world, unless an occasional professor gets out there and invents useful things and services that working people truly need to better their lives.

If you can be EFFECTIVE in life in various ways then you put your mouth where your words are. Do your words fall on shallow ground, like the educational system of artificial rewards and punishments? Or do your words fall on fertile ground of hard work, commitment to excellence and positive results for the whole team and not just its leaders?

This is a general essay about the quality of life and how to live its real issues and solve them positively. Now we take the focus to writing as a serious endeavor.

WRITING THE NOVEL OR SCREEN PLAY AND SUCCEEDING AT IT

We can give you no magic formula here but we can take a strong position in the right direction that has worked for us.

THE SECRET IS EFFECTIVENESS IN LIFE AND IN WRITING

We don't care so much what you have to do to get there, but you should do almost all your actions to problem-solve effectively.

YOU MUST PROBLEM-SOLVE REAL PROBLEMS AND CREATE PRODUCTS AND VALUES OF EXCELLENCE TO PROVE EFFECTIVENESS IN LIFE.

THE SECRET IS EFFECTIVENESS.

Effectiveness is when what happens consistently is what we intend to happen. When the scientists produced the first atomic bomb they were not sure from their physics knowledge what would actually happen. Would the chain reaction of splitting atoms form a reaction in all matter and almost instantly destroy the world? Or would the bomb explosion be localized to only the radioactive materials in the bomb itself. The bomb worked and now physics as a valid body of truth is confirmed forever. It is not just theoretical but practical. The scientists produced what they intended to produce.

In any field, ask how can you become effective and solve at least some of the problems in that field?

In writing the novel it is the same situation as in physics. Can we produce the bomb? Can we create something that can almost instantly kill millions of people and end life on earth as we know it? Shall we try to prove that humanity can indeed do this? No, because the proving would kill the scientists as well. No one wants such pragmatic knowledge at such a great price!!!

Can we then in a lesser field prove what makes for a successful novel?

Do the successful novelists know what makes for their success in writing novels that sell?

The secret for the successful novelist is:

CRAFT: CRAFT! CRAFT! CRAFT!

Hospitality Promotional Products: Customer Appreciation at Its Best!
Creating and maintaining customers is the key to success in the $460 billion dollar hospitality industry.One way to create and maintain customers is to offer hospitality promotional products. They are a cost-effective medium that say, “We appreciate your business.” Customers want high levels of service and the hospitality industry is all about service – quality service to its customers.When choosing a hospitality promotional product you need to think about your industry and target market. What travel agency do you think creates and maintains more customers? The one that hands out a business card and thank you note to customers who book a vacation or the one that gives out disposable cameras & mini-photo albums with their customized message and logo imprinted on them.The latter agency is the one that expressed appreciation by its thoughtful hospitality promotional product. Any customer getting ready to go on vacation would find great value in receiving a disposable camera and a mini-photo album. Do you think those customers would come back again? Do you think they would tell their friends about this agency? You bet they would!The possibilities are virtually unlimited in creating hospitality products that f

Real Estate Bird-Dogs: How To Invest In Real Estate With Zero Risk
Both financial experts and investors unanimously agree on the remarkable benefits investors reap if they invest in real estate. Asset appreciation, higher profits, and interesting tax benefits are some of the main advantages of being a real estate investor. There are countless instances of people who make it BIG in the real estate business.With the right business strategy and thoughtful research of the market, anybody can make huge profits from their real estate investment. People invest in real estate for a number of reasons. For many, it is a profitable alternative to the volatile stock market. Besides, the risks associated with real estate investing are relatively less. To invest in real estate with practically zero risk, you can recruit real estate bird-dogs.Real estate bird-dogs ensure minimal risk thereby saving a good deal of your money. Typically, real estate bird-dogs are the ones that help prospective investors to invest in real estate by helping them find profitable deals.The best part of recruiting real estate bird-dogs is that you are required to pay them (generally in cash) only if you purchase the fixer-upper. In other words, you recruit them to do all the legwork involved to successfully invest in real

Hate Your Job? Here's How It Often Leads to Getting Fired
Ever been fired and it was a complete surprise? If you have, it shouldn’t have been. You missed the cues. Whether you created it or the company decided it, you lost control of your career. Frequently those two are intertwined, and if you don’t dissect the experience, you may recreate it.A Gallup poll found that 77% of Americans hate their jobs. To me, that’s not a surprising discovery because most people, before they begin their job hunt, don’t do the examination to learn what their perfect job is. And after a few years -- or sooner – disillusion and distaste set in. This, combined with fear of change, creates what they wanted: to be outta that lousy place. In other words, if you don’t tune in, you’ll tune out, and then you’ll be gone.Do you dread Monday mornings? Do you frequently disappear into your office grumbling about your stupid boss? If you’ve lost respect and enthusiasm for your company, your attitude is going downhill fast. Next you don’t care about your performance and you start slacking, rationalizing with “I don’t care.” Because you don’t. You start doing the minimum just to get by.If you don’t notice what’s happening, over time, your company will. So the constant refrain of “I hate my job” -

Social Bookmarking Traffic Results
The results of the social bookmarking experiment I have been carrying out are materialising. There have been some surprising results and some results that have restored my faith in the browsing public. I have been pondering whether or not to release the results as I do not want the spammers to tarnish something that is still relatively pure. But as you can see I finally decided to go ahead and publish.I have mentioned before that I have been looking at social bookmarking as a way to drive traffic to websites. The idea behind social bookmarking is that you share your favourite bookmarks with others, the idea being that if you found these links useful then others might too. Some social bookmarking sites also allow visitors to rate the usefulness of your bookmarks, this allows the truly useful bookmarks to become the most popular. So in theory spam should be removed by natural selection. To carry out my experiment I created three articles. Two of these articles were good well researched pieces, whilst the third was self promotional spam, but not too obvious. I posted these articles to twelve social bookmarking sites and then waited for the results. The results

CRAFT IS THE SECRET OF EFFECTIVENESS IN THE NOVEL WRITING BUSINESS.

That's how we see it from this end. I have a university masters in English Literature, and another one in Psychology, but neither university taught me how to write novels. They taught me how to analyze novels. They taught me how to analyze people, not how to construct great characters.

Yet now the world is different in the new century. There are a lot of writing craft courses and books out there. We have utilized a lot of the best in making our huge collection of over 2000 writing tools and helps. We did it to learn how to write effective novels ourselves. We pass on to you, also a writer, the same writing craft tools and prompts that we are using ourselves to improve and make dramatically effective our own novels and other things we do like articles and podcasts.

CRAFT KNOWLEDGE USE IS THE SECRET OF EFFECTIVENESS IN WRITING A SUCCESSFUL NOVEL.

Don't believe me. You want to just sit down and write, like one editor at the Writer's Digest Forum maintains? Well, go ahead, do it your way. You will do it your way, anyway. But if you want to become effective as a writer and stand half a chance at success, you will learn your craft from beginning to end.

Be sure and study well the fifty leading writing craft books that I have. Be sure and take some creative writing courses to see how little the instructors know about writing. Read and analyze all the great novels you want to, and still fail to understand how to write an effective novel. Mine the blogs on creative writing and drown in the ideas of failure express there by so many people.

No, yes, if you want success, make sure your writing at its final stage is effective writing. If it does not demand to be read by readers then it is not effective writing and it will never be read because you DON'T HAVE A GOOD STORY, and YOU DO NOT USE EFFECTIVE CRAFT KNOWLEDGE TO TELL YOUR STORY.

I have 100,000 words of my novel. I have 350,000 books sold in eight languages. I have one a best seller, The Dream Cards, at 110,000 copies sold in eight languages around the world. This is no bragging. This is reality testing. I am trying to write well because I love writing and because I want to be successful in real terms at it.

My latest research? It is my podcasts which got 63,000 listeners in the first year. During that same time the podcasts that got me the most listeners was the Prologue to my Jesus Novel at around 4000 listeners. A number of other podcasts are almost up there with this number, such as my Loving Laurie podcast.

Yet the top one is The Prologue To The Jesus Novel. I put it there to get response, to test the market. I put this podcast out in two parts to get public response from strangers. Could I gage the interest in the subject matter, and would people actually listen in large numbers?

This is the testing of EFFECTIVENESS.

EFFECTIVENESS FOR A WRITER IS GREAT STORY WEDDED TO GREAT CRAFT IN WRITING IT.

We stand behind our comprehensive collection of writing craft tools. We were astounded that only one writing craft book had a large collection of writing tools and the others didn't. We were astounded that our writing course instructors did not give us writing tools but simply readings from novels and memoirs to comment on, and also made banal comments on our own work. Ho-Hum!

If you want EFFECTIVENESS in life, learn the necessary craft that goes with your field. If you want to be a successful lover, don't just go for experiences. Go for quality. Go for excellence. Learn from the best teachers who know their love craft. Learn! Problem-Solve! Create Excellence.

To do this you have to be effective in life, do you not?

We wish you all the success possible to you in life!

Article writing and submission is one of my favorite ways to gain traffic to my web pages. The nice thing of course about article writing is that I can create individual web pages to send each type of article reader to. For example, if I have an article about a tightly niched theme – I can send that reader to a squeeze page that is just as tightly targeted.

Houses fall apart. All of them. And unless you're handy with tools and lumber, chances are you'll have to call in a professional.
