Selling Real Estate Using Twitter

By Jerome Pennix

At every real estate convention, boot camps, or seminars the issue of marketing comes up at least once if not a hundred times. Someone will mention Facebook (which is a whole different story) and this is always closely followed by a comment about Twitter. So... let's decide is Twitter worth it? If it IS worth it, how can investors best use it for profitable results? First, lets look at just what Twitter is and what it can do for your advertising efforts.

Twitter.com is a site where an investor can create a profile and become a "micro-blogger" Twitter is like a typical blog (aka web-log) in that it lets you say anything you want to say to anyone and everyone who will view it - with one exception. Twitter only allows a subscriber to express themselves--0 characters at a time. So it's a kind of like using you cell phone to send the world a brief text message. When you locate a profile of someone whose "tweets" you are interested in, you can "follow" them - whenever they post anything new, it will be visible on your Twitter home page. If anyone finds YOUR profile and follows YOU, then you will be alerted that someone is "following" you. Now that you are aware of the basics, let's discuss making this a powerful and PROFITABLE tool for you.

Because the old saying "Out of sight, out of mind" is absolutely true, you'll need to remain active with your "tweeting". You should be posting at a minimum, once a day. Find something to "tweet" specific to real estate - something that your "followers" will find useful. If you just start sending info about homes you have for sale, it probably will not get you as far as you planned. Think about it this way - when was the last time you opened and really read an email from someone attempting to sell you something?

If you give your followers something they can use or something they find interesting (even if it ISN'T about real estate) then you'll have a chance to keep their attention. When you gain their trust, they'll be more open to consider what you have to say when you want to offer them something you've listed.

Twitter, like other social networking sites, is a wonderful way to network and connect with people - just keep in mind that they are real people and desire to be respected and treated like real people. They aren't dollar signs. So connect when someone follows you, send them a short personal "tweet" letting them feel you appreciate them.

Remember that being real with people and giving thoughtful content is what Twitter is all about - the money will follow if you treat people like people and post regularly so that your Twitter marketing is consistently on the radar! The more you do this, the larger your following will be - and the larger your following, the better your chances of communicating with someone who wants to make a deal - which, of course, means a better chance for you to profit!

Keeping Up With Large Business

By Calvin Alexander

When you are running a smaller business, you can't afford to slash prices in the same way that the super sized retail chains can, so it is important to find a better way to promote your business. The holidays is a time of year when retail businesses especially feel the pinch of the tightening of the belt so to speak and as is evident by the larger retail establishments they are preparing for a much leaner holiday season.

There are a few things that the smaller business owner can do to reach out to customers and show then that their business is appreciated. Most of the ideas are extremely fun for both the customer and the business, while being relatively inexpensive.

To start with, try offering an early morning special. There are many things that you can do for the early morning customers that will make them feel appreciated and eager to spend money in your store. You can set out a table with coffee and bagels, offer a discount for shoppers during the first two hours of business and maybe even offer a promotional door prize for the first 20 customers. By doing this you are luring customers into your store, before they head out to shop anywhere else, therefore if they see a product on their list they will be tempted to purchase it in order to save themselves a stop during the day. This is a great way to increase your holiday sales and you will notice that people will be lined up outside your store before the doors even open.

Another great idea is to offer incentives to customers who spead a certain amount of money, or purchase a promotional shopping bag. You can even offer a promotional gift to customers who spend a certain amount of money in your store. Not only will these incentives have your customers spending more money in order to savve on their prioducts, but by purchasing a promotional bag they will be advertising your company whereever they carry the bag to.

All the promotions that you run during the holiday season should encourage customers to shop with you first and let all their friends know that they should do the same. This is the best way to increase your business sales during this holiday season.

Another Benefits of Search Engine Marketing

By Ricardo d Argence

In business, many clients overlook the real results that they're getting during Search Engine Marketing.

They look at they keywords, they see what they are paying for, but what they do not see are the many other factors that are affecting the outcome of their site.

When a site gets properly optimized, it is being transformed into a thought-out navigational pattern to information. This is the same pattern a search engine spider looks for. Don't forget, the easier you make it for a spider to index your site, the better your chances are for getting your site a higher placement in the search engine results page.

While W3C validation is something all sites should strive for, it is not required for better rankings. Does it help? Probably. Yahoo engineers have stated that whether a site is W3C compliant or not makes no difference to how it ranks. If it has relevant content, it will get ranked.

Properly naming page titles and file names is also quite important, and it helps the spider out immensely during the indexing. Google doesn't place much value on meta tags, at least not like it used to, but they're still a huge part of the picture. That being the case, don't exclude them.

Once the site has been coded the right way, it is time to use Search Engine marketing. This is used to raise traffic, and there are many different methods. There could be articles, press releases, blogs, feeds, and many other things. It's amazing what can be used to direct traffic to a website.

Here is where the collateral benefits of Search Engine Marketing begin to appear. Let's say that you have been doing a series of press releases where once a week, you talk about a new color of widget. In each press release you also list the other colors of widgets that you have for sale. Even after only the first release gets sent, you've already created a valuable In-Bound Link to your site for your Red Widget, but since you included the other colors of the widgets as well, they all pick up IBL's as well.

If you included phrases about the ways to use widgets, their colors, and other things, then you have also included keywords that you may have never though of. When you check to see what keywords are being used, you might actually be a bit surprised.

Now you've seen just a bit of the potential power that your website actually has. Every page will have it's own rank, and for this reason it's critical to ensure the optimization of every single page on your website.

One other thing that you should concern yourself with is geo targeting. This isn't something that has been implemented everywhere yet, but it scans your pages for addresses, and if you are a brick and mortar business, then having your address indexed by it's geographical location is very important.

In conclusion, the next time you start checking Google to see where your site ranks for it's keyword phrases, don't forget about all of the hidden keywords/phrases that are embedded in your site's copy. You would be surprised at how many of those forgotten about terms end up at the top of the pile....

In A Rush To Find A Provo Printing Firm

By Javier Kreis

I finally made the move on down to Provo, Utah to go to school from up north in Salt Lake City. It was my first time living on my own and, to be honest, I was a little nervous. My folks travelled with me to make sure I was set up right. They helped me get an apartment, and my good 'ol dad took me to the grocery store and hooked me up with all the goods.

It was both liberating and nerve racking. My folks travelled with me to make sure I was set up right. I wanted them there to help out, but I also was scared to be seen with them. I knew image was everything with kids my age.

On my first day of class the nervousness really set in. I was all alone on a big campus. I didn't know where any of my classes were and was lost. I thought about calling my parents but they wouldn't know any better than I would.

The next day was the first day of class. That's when the nerves really went nerve racking. Here I was, a skinny little freshman all alone on foreign campus with a bunch of strangers. Naturally, I got lost when I couldn't find my classes, I was late to other classes, and I was overwhelmed with a college workload. I felt like a imbecile. And the twinge of homesickness started creeping in.

Of course, I got home and hung out with my roommates and then procrastinated writing my first paper. By the time I got it done, I went to print. Hit the button, and to my surprise there was no ink in my brand new printer.

I left it sitting on top of my dresser at home - 45 minutes away. It was not worth the almost hour long drive to pick up some ink, so I decided to go out and buy some ink from the store.

I learned my lesson when it comes to printers, always be prepared and incase they fail, always have a backup. That is the thing about technology, what is supposed to fix a problem, usually is the problem.

This experience really tested my independence. It proved the fact that I could get by without my parents help. I am really looking forward to living on my own. I think I will grow up real fast this way.

What You Need to Look for in a Real Estate Agent

By Mike Boman

You will find agents of varying skill levels regardless of the real estate company. Some agents take their work as a job while others are real enterprising people looking for the next opportunity. The crucial thing to consider when choosing a real estate agent is to ask questions and pay attention to the answers provided. It is important not to rush the choosing an agent in that you want someone you know is working for you, aid to get you the most money for the purchase or sell of your home at the same time keeping expenses to a minimum.

Bear in mind that when creating a contract with the agent, you want everything to have a positive spin on it for you. We fully recommend that when an agreement is made with an agent, a timeframe be included after which you would have the right to review the whole situation and then decide whether to stay with the agent or choose someone different.

Though most real estate agents are honest, hard-working professionals, some are simply searching for prospective buyers and then offering some type of quick scheme. Any offer of moving things along extra fast for money should raise a red flag, while a qualified agent would know the right moves to sell or close the deal quickly and for the most amount of money. As a customer you have always the right to know exactly the things for which your money is paying.

In choosing the right real estate agent, you also need to investigate him or her too. You should take time to research the company the agent works for, and look at information for current listings being managed, and look at MLS listings on the internet of homes being sold.

And lastly before you start search for a real estate agent, remember that you the customer and you need to remind youself about that. The real estate agent you choose will be making thousands of dollars for handling your property purchase or sale so you need someone that is dedicated and willing to work hard to make positive things happen. And it is a part of his or her job to contact you regularly but you also have the right to ask for a status report.

Historically Whitening

By Cody Scholberg

There's long history with teeth-whitening. It is as old as civilization itself. Smiles have typically been a priority because it is a side of communication amongst humans. If you don't clean your teeth regularly, the smile pays the price. So of course, it is not unheard of for archaeologists to always find teeth-whitening methods around the world. There are many ways that people have used to keep their teeth-white including:

Using aged urine Using baking soda Using special species of twigs Toothbrushes

The Toothbrushes An Old Friend

Using a toothbrush is a very old tradition. People started using them in China over 500 years ago. Before that, they used something similar to a toothbrush. About 5000 years ago people started using a certain kind of tree to clean their teeth. They would take twigs from this tree and fray one end. With the frayed end, they would flatten it and use it to brush their teeth. This is still a very common practice in parts of Africa and the Middle East. These twigs have an antiseptic property and are very efficient as a teeth-whitening product.

Discovery Of Germs

Historically, Europeans were behind many people in the world and that they had no regard for germs whatsoever. In other parts of the world, it seemed like people knew they existed before they were actually identified. However, when they were discovered in Europe through a microscope, Europe change dramatically. Are one marks the beginning of the victorian era as a time when there was an extreme focus on keeping everything clean. This was not necessarily something that was involving one area or the other. In embraced every area. This is where teeth-whitening products got their start in modern European culture.

Toothbrushes Get A Second Chance

Plastic started to be developed after the discovery of crude oil in the Middle East in'08. Along with using this for gasoline, there was also the development of plastics. Toothbrushes were no longer made with animal hair and bone or wood. They were now being made from nylon. However, these were not the soft bristles that we know today. These were very hard and would often make the guns bleed. It would take almost 20 years before a softer product was developed. In the meantime, they were commonly used to apply teeth-whitening products to the teeth.

When It Comes To Success Of Your Event, The Right Venue Matters!

By Michael Nielson

Organising and coming forth with a corporate event now requires strenuous work, and effort. There are multitudes of factors that must be considered without which, there are likely chances that the event would fail. These factors include the qualification, and number of people attending the event, the kind of seating that suits them, the size of venue required, the material that would be given as visual aid, the managerial decisions, and finally the various services available in a venue. Correct decisions regarding all this is indispensable for the success of the event.

First and the foremost consideration in organising an event is the budget. It is critical to decide your budget, so that you do not face any financial problems later on. Contemplate how many people you are going to invite, accommodation that you require, catering, decorations, and the length of your conference. With imaginative and resourceful management of your budget, you can pull off an impressive event in a splendid venue.

Selection of a befitting venue is indeed the most important factor. Depending on the event, you have to decide where you want to carry it out; your choices can be convention centres, hotels, conference centres, resorts, boats, restaurants, or retreat centres. The location of the event should emulate the theme of your event. It is essential that the venue is located in a secure environment, and necessary arrangements are made to prevent unauthorised entry.

Very often, you would be inviting guests to the event who are coming from far off areas. If that is the case, it is essential to hold your event at a venue that also provides accommodation facilities. Furthermore, make sure that the venue would be able to accommodate all your guests who are in need of a room for the night.

Some other factors to be considered for an event include the time, date, and length of your event. There must be ample time at hand, so that the administration team of your project is able to plan the event successfully.

The success of an event requires one to provide certain necessary facilities to its participants. In order to help, a venue that helps with this should be chosen, so that the burden of getting projectors, visual aids, stationary, food, and others is left on the venue management. All of these are necessary for an event to go smoothly.

All these things are vital for the success of your event. Check whether the venue, along with conference room, also has break-out rooms or not. Be sure that the staff members of the venue are professional, and helpful. Choose a venue with a good reputation, as it will reflect upon your own organisation.

With changing times, it is vital that one keeps up with the flow. The choices available for the holding of an event are myriad. However, this is not an easy decision, and should be based on calculated decision-making. That will surely lead to a successful end!

Global Freedom Comes From Understanding Culture

By Bob Proctor

What can change your life? One word: culture. Culture is the predominant set of beliefs and values of a group of people-most notably in our families, our workplace and our nation.

In every era, there are certain damaging aspects in one's culture that have hindered many to become rich in their financial and personal lives. Imagine, only decades earlier, discriminations against groups of people were justified and left to fester in national cultures throughout the globe. Where would we be without world changers like Martin Luther King, Jr., Mother Theresa and Amelia Earhart today?

It would be an easier life to not challenge paradigms-however wrong we may know it is. Fortunately for the rest of us, the examples of courage these heroes made let us know that it is indeed possible to make a difference; furthermore-use one's culture as a step up to global freedom.

Take a moment to think about this: What paradigm impacting a particular facet of your culture do you want to see changed? Perhaps it's the idea that to become rich in the present state the economy is next to impossible and you must work twice as hard to make money. Look inside you before you begin to judge your circumstances. Tap your potential and set forth to conquer the global market-anything is possible.

Write down the goals you want and all the ideas you associate with it. If it is to build wealth in an international level, it might be international jobs, to earn money online and make money on the internet. Is there a sense of resistance inside you? Are you comfortable with the idea that you can make money using innovative, and possibly riskier methods? You are uncovering your paradigms and correcting them to be in alignment to your goals.

You can either be a victim of the culture you happen to be in; or you can use this to bring you to a higher level in life. The income opportunities that are open when you start to make money on the internet are beneficial not just in a financial sense. It can also improve your quality of life. When you earn money online, often times you will find yourself working from home. Working from home means you get to have more time for what really matters-your personal well-being and your family.

Look at all your options and choose the path that will give you a better quality of life. It may not be international jobs or income opportunities from the internet like we've discussed. It does have to be exciting for you and fuel your passion to build wealth regardless the sometimes negative paradigms and attitudes that you will meet along the way.

The culture you have now may be big-but your heart and attitude will create space for you to be a success. Remember, you can change your life; but more than that, you have the power to change the world.

Provo's Best Auto Insurance

By Calvin Patel

You may think you are the most cautious driver in the roads of Provo but you can still meet an accident anytime. You are not exempted from this unfortunate event, after all. Even if you have your full concentration while driving, any reckless driver may just ram your car and injure you.

Aside from being a very defensive driver, the best way to prevent bigger damages resulting from a vehicular accident is to get a Provo auto insurance. If he cannot totally avoid a mishap, he must be financially prepared by getting a car insurance coverage. He should get one from the leading insurance provider in Provo, Utah. This is the Bear River Insurance.

Bear River Insurance can guarantee one the urgent service he may need after an accident on the road. It is the most financially stable insurance provider in Provo. It has been in the business for three decades and it can still certainly last longer with its fiscal stability.

This company can give different types of coverage. Nevertheless, if one prefers a something that will surely give him full support and services after an accident, comprehensive coverage should be it. This promises to cover all the costs of the car's damage and the medical bills as well. For more explanations, one can easily contact any Provo auto insurance agent.

Under a comprehensive coverage, not just collisions are covered. This type of coverage allows you to lay claims for damages due to theft and natural disasters. This is, definitely, the type of coverage that can secure you and your car. The premiums may be high but it is worth the service that you get.

Bear River Insurance will be very glad to credit someone with some deductions on his premiums if he is found to be a very safe and responsible driver. They also get assured with these types of drivers, knowing that they will not be releasing money too often for accidents caused by their client.

You even lower the premium rates more. You can do this by limiting your driving within Provo and its surrounding counties to reduce your mileage and, consequently your premiums too. The insurance company will naturally think that you face less risks of an accident because you drive around less often.

The importance of having Provo auto insurance is something that has been embedded in the minds of Provo motorists. However, they seem not to make too much fuss in choosing which the best coverage is. Although there are other providers, they seem to be one in saying that Bear River is the best option, a fact proven by its many satisfied insurance holders.

Selling a Home Read This Helpful Information

By Jules Hagey

When it comes to selling a home, particularly in the current real estate market, you really need to put effort to do everything to be able to stand out from the competition. Your home needs to offer something special as there are many homes available now. This would ensure a fast sell and a good price.

Home in Disrepair

We greatly recommend that you try to research on properties under sale in the same geographical location to look at condition and price.

You need to make sure it is in excellent condition as a part of getting your home ready to sell. In order to get the best price from your home, try to repair all the needs to be repaired and you might even consider upgrades.

Property Photographs

Your real estate agent should take many quality photographs of your home for posting on MLS. Put some things in the storage if needed and be sure to keep the home uncluttered. Other tips include:

- You should keep the toilet seats covered. Take a photo of the master bedroom because it is needed unless the other rooms are significantly larger or different. Make sure your family members are not in the photos of the home and also watch out for reflections in mirrors. You should take photos only of the positive features of the home like the swimming pool, fireplace, etc. Do not include the small closets and the hallways. Have the dining table set beautifully. The living room photo needs to make the room look large so if you have a lot of furniture, put some in storage. Also make sure that the front and back property are also included, especially water features, pools, built-in grills/fireplaces, and gardens. Try to use descriptions to enhance photos.

Getting More Opportunities for Marketing and Advertising

When it comes to selling a home, you will need to consider several marketing strategies. Consider the following:

Invest in color postcards and mail them, for out-of-town buyers and potential buyers in your neighborhood. Multiple color flyers that have some of the best photos of your home really work great when distributed to potential buyers that will come to open house or to view on a scheduled tour with the real estate agent. Consider having videos added because virtual tours get attention. Consider having new advertisement that are done weekly. Open houses should only be held on Sundays or Thursday evenings to get a greater number of visitors to your home. Have your agent get feedback from people that have gone through the home, allowing you to make repairs, changes, or upgrades accordingly. If comfortable, shoot a self-video of you telling people about the property or giving a tour and then post it on a video site like YouTube.

Always consider a good rule when selling a home is that with this currently being a buyer's market you need to set the asking price at least 2% lower than the asking price for the most comparable home. If you find that the price is simply lower than what you are needing then perhaps you should sell your home in the future. It is a huge mistake to list your home at a price that will get no movement.

Is Copy Writing Important To Your Online Business?

By Kevin Thomas

A list of factors that go into the success or failure of a business would be tough to compile due to the sheer volume. There are scores of reasons why a business will achieve or fail and with online businesses, there are even more additional complexities present. This is due to the multifaceted component associated with online ventures such as dealing with a stiff pool of competition in the search engines regarding traffic driving. Then, even when you do drive traffic to a site you will need to turn the traffic into a paid customer base. There is good news here: it is possible to succeed when you employ effective copy writing to drive your business' success. Copy writing often holds the key to delivering the missing elements that can make or break an online business.

Copy writing is a term that is thrown around a bit too loosely and it's important to understand what it really means. Copy writing is not just any website content you have. On the contrary, copy writing is geared specifically to be promotional. The purpose of copy writing is to get somebody to make a purchase or take another desired action. High quality copy writing will draw people in, get their attention and keep them engaged, leading them the whole way towards taking a specific action that the author or business owner intended.

Content such as reviews, testimonials or product and service details is meant to be informative. It's secondary information that people are looking for and interested in, but it's not selling anything directly. At most it's making a soft-sell by giving people more confidence in what you're offering, or by merely informing them as much as possible so they can make an accurate judgment if they are interested.

As most will note it is the copy writing that serves the important purpose of making a strong push for a sale. It is not just an informative process as much as it hints strongly at the notion of taking deliberate action. It leads people into doing exactly what needs to be done, how to do it, and it also provides clear and detailed reasons on why their immediate action will be so beneficial to them. This will allow you to convert a lot of customers since you are putting them on a psychological spot that aids in their decision making.

There are a great many business owners that take a complete hands off approach and think people will figure their business plan out and then make the decisions needed to become customers. To say this is a bad idea would be a severe understatement. In fact, it is a complete and total fundamental misunderstanding of how things work in online businesses. Poorly designed websites will not lead to good sales. The same can be said of any website that embodies awful copy writing.

Copy writing can prove to be the clear link between a product or service and consumer or prospect. Copy writing can bring the two together and present everything out in the open. You can either hope that a soft-sell approach delivers enough to get the job done, or you can seek out sales in an active manner through copy writing. Such writing delivers the effective difference between passively watching a prospect walk out the door vs. convincing the prospect to make the person an offer that can't be refused. As the owner of an online business you need to highlight all of the business' strengths and benefits. Copy writing is the means in which you can do this and the end result will be more sales and conversions.

Most individuals embody a short attention span and this creates the requirement that they need all things laid out directly in from of them. When I buy a product, what exactly is it that I would be receiving? Is there a reason that I should buy your product instead of some other company's wares? What exactly are the benefits with working in association with your organization? If I take action immediately, what do I get in return? What is it that I will I be missing if I opt not to make this purchase? These are the common questions that people will seek answers to. This is what copy writing has the potential to deliver.

The bottom line is that copy writing really can make or break your online business. Without high quality copy writing, you're just another website amongst hundreds of millions that doesn't stand out from the crowd. People may find your site, but they'll quickly leave as they ponder what you're all about and why they should care. However, with copy writing when you have people at your site, they are yours for the taking. You can quickly convince and convert them, bringing in a great deal more sales than would have occurred otherwise. You can either hope that your hands-off, soft-sell approach works or you can seize the reins and pull the sales in with copy writing.

Reasons To Take Your Company Public

By James Scott

There are several reasons why a company would decide to go public; here are some of the advantages. Liquidity is a popular reason for going public via OTCBB or IPO, many global lenders and private equity groups will lend against stock collateral. Private companies lose time jumping through hoops with various FICO driven line of credit and lending programs with outrageous interest rates while a public company can strategically offer stock for sale or collateral. Run a solid company with growth and a sea of content stock holders and you've got your own cash register to grow your company.

Another popular reason for going public is to offer stock options to key employees which creates and retains loyalty while reducing cost of compensation. There is no better way to have employees go the extra mile day in and day out than rewarding them with a piece of the company. Stock options are also a way to attract those prized executives that are in demand.

Having a public company allows massive buying power from the perspective of growth through acquisition. Find a company that is the perfect strategic alliance and buy them with company stock. This method of expansion has served the interests of top tier companies since Standard Oil.

What about those companies owned by an individual or a close knit group of entrepreneurs who are getting up there in age and need to start thinking about an exit strategy? Public companies demand higher sale prices and sell faster because of the flexibility of the structure. We could go on and on about the advantages of going public.

Start-up companies wishing to investigate this concept of fundraising you may want to consider the OTCBB, this is a solid and regulated formation to trade your stock publicly with stock holder confidence as opposed to a lesser trusted option called Pink Sheets. For corporations with some age and capital and IPO may be the best way to go, though this process is expensive and can take more than a year, it's worth it for the right companies.

How To Keep Clients Happy And A Commercial Property World

By Cody Scholberg

Keeping a tenant happy means you have a tenant that renews their lease. This means that this tenant is profitable. The primary concern of a commercial property manager is ensuring that this happens.

What To Expect From A Commercial Property Manager

Signing leases is not the only thing a commercial property manager will be expected to do. In many ways, the job includes a number of realty duties. Commercial property managers are expected to show the advertised property to potential tenants and explain pricing details. They will also amend the lease and explain leasing options. As opposed to a residential property manager, commercial property managers typically need to know more about the legal documentation. Part of the legal documentation comes from the city or state. The other part comes from insurance companies used by the renter and the commercial property itself. A CPM manager must also understand the importance of working with staff.

Working With Tenants That Do Not Pay

Just like with residential property, it is common for commercial property tenants to be late with rent payment. Of course, all property managers will seek to collect as soon as possible. However, when you are dealing with a larger corporation has taken residence in your property, this takes a different angle. For example, the payment may be delayed due to corporate cash flow issues. Although there may be a repayment that happens very quickly, it could take up to four months for these errors to be corrected. In the meantime, you may have several late payment charges. However, keeping a long-term commercial client happy involves being able to dismiss these charges periodically. Of course, you would never want to damage a commercial clients reputation by posting an eviction notice on their front door.

Commercial Property Managers Need The Right Education

Having a number of skills is important to a commercial property manager. There are so many variations with in the field and they need to be prepared for the unexpected. They also need to have experience with the jobs that they are assigning to others. For example, a commercial property manager can be overcharged if they do not understand how the service floors. They will also have trouble assessing the outcome of a situation that arises with a customer. A common example is plumbing. However, there are many points within a foundation of knowledge that a commercial property manager needs to understand. These ideas are valuable and are most often taught in graduate level business management courses.

Is Making Money On eBay Dead?

By Jason James

The banning of the sale of digital products on eBay has led to many online marketers abandoning the use of eBay as one of their revenue streams. Changes of terms and conditions, and ever increasing fee charges, have had a similar effect too. Still, flexible marketers are finding that, by adapting their approach, eBay still represents opportunities for making money online.

Smart sellers found that while the direct sale of digital products was no longer possible, there is a way to work around it. What they did was to put one or more digital products on a CD or DVD and physically ship it out to customers. In addition to having gotten around the ban on digital products, sellers were able to capitalize on the fact that physical products have a greater perceived value than digital products.

To save time from having to package, label, and ship every CD or DVD you sell, the best thing to do is to use a fulfillment company. Basically, you provide them with a stock of raw materials and the customers details, as they come in at a later date, and they take care of the rest for a flat fee. For each disc that you sell, you could easily make a few dollars in profit.

Turning digital products into physical ones also allows you to include various bonuses and upsells on the discs that you ship out. Just think how much more a trust a customer will have in you when they receive their purchase and find that you have included a previously unannounced bonus with it. They will then be much more likely to follow the links through to your website or squeeze page that you have included and will likely to turn into a long term buying customer.

Another way of making money on eBay is to enter the dropshipping business. Instead of keeping stock or selling something that you own, doing dropshipping will allow you to sell products which belong to someone else, kind of like affiliate marketing. Having decided upon which of the many dropshipping companies to use, the rest of the process is easy to follow through. You simply list one of the dropshipper's products on eBay and, when it sells, submit an order to the dropshipper for that product, providing them with the customers details as you do so. The great thing about this business model is that it doesn't cost you any money out of your pocket. You only pay the dropshipping company's cut out of the proceeds of the sale.

You can virtually sell anything through a dropshipping company on eBay. You'll find companies that sell small items like cell phone accessories, all the way up to large items such as pool tables. Since you are paid a cut of each sale, selling larger items would give you a larger profit margin. However, smaller items are more in demand, so you will probably sell more of them. No matter what you choose to sell, make sure you do the necessary research in order to find a reliable company to work with.

Choosing A Columbus Water Damage Restoration Company

By Bob Milderman

No matter how old or new your home may be, you could have water damage occur at any time. A leaky roof, a broken pipe or a heavy rainfall can cause the damage. It can be a big hassle to deal with water damage. You will need to find a water damage restoration group and file an insurance claim. In Columbus water damage restoration companies can help you to deal with all of these matters.

Not every water damage restoration company has the experience needed to restore your home and furnishings to their former condition. You will need a company that has a trained staff as well as one that knows how to clean up the mess and restore everything to the way it was. If you have family or friends that have dealt with a company before, call them and ask for a reference.

You are going to want a company that can both help you with the taking care of the damage and in dealing with your insurance company.

The type of damage that has occurred will determine the steps that need to be taken for restoration. Water damage that results from a broken water main is much different from repairing damage caused by an overflowing sewer line. While the former will require careful steps to dry and prevent mold growth, the later will require disinfection of your home to prevent diseases.

If water damage restoration is not done quickly and correctly, further problems can and will develop. Mold, viruses and bacteria may grow and cause problems in the health of your homes residents. Unclean water that has filled the home will result in the need to remove and dispose some of your furniture. Floor coverings and even wallboard may have to be removed and disposed. The professionals will know what you will be able to keep and what must be replaced.

Many water damage restoration companies have their own insurance adjuster that will handle the claim directly with your insurance company. This can take a lot of the stress of a bad situation away.

Not all water damage restoration companies are the same. Some do not have enough experience to restore your home to its former condition. Others may not have the experience needed to deal with your insurance company. They may not be willing to wait for the insurance settlement to pay for the restoration charges. If you have time, ask for references from your friends and family.

Advantages of Posters in Marketing

By Anthony Tang

Poster printing is a highly impactful and cost effective means of promotion. It is especially well known in the film industry and other parts of the performing arts industry; however, even small and medium sized companies can make use of this proven method.

It is a known fact that sometimes organizations have to adjust their overall budgets just to accommodate their marketing campaigns. If your company is stuck in such a situation, and you can not risk venturing into big budget marketing, you can always look forward to poster printing as an advertising option. They can be designed to attract the local audience and can reach target customers at an affordable cost.

Multiple viewings of an attractive poster can create a very impactful recall of the brand and its offering in the viewer's mind. But poster printing should be of good quality and the poster should be placed at a strategic location so that it strikes the eyeballs of more people and with greater frequency.

Another benefit of posters is that they can be used for both small and large advertising initiatives. Posters can be developed keeping the target audience in mind, for example, for an ad campaign focusing on school students, posters can be designed with pupils in mind and can be put up at focal points near schools or places frequented by students.

The layout, the message, the place of printing and the area of the poster's display are some of the important factors to be considered before preparing to print poster for a campaign. All these aspects contribute towards the fruition of a campaign and in turn translate into the business' success in the market. Hence careful planning and execution of the entire poster printing and displaying operation is critical for getting the best value out of this initiative.

Pittsburgh Tops Cleveland For 12th Consecutive Time

By Ross Everett

The Pittsburgh Steelers have been playing the Cleveland Browns for longer than any other team in the National Football League, dating back to'50. And while it hasn't been quite that long since the Cleveland Browns won a game against the Steelers it may be starting to feel like it. On Sunday, Pittsburgh won for the twelfth straight time dating back to 2003 as they topped Cleveland by a final score of 27-13. The defending Superbowl champions improved to 4-2 while the Browns fell to 1-5.

The good news for NFL betting enthusiasts who took the +13' with the Browns as a road underdog is that they managed to cover the pointspread by the slimmest of possible margins. Betting against the defending Superbowl champion is a long standing handicapping concept, and this season at least its worked like a charm-the Steelers have only covered one of their first six games. Cleveland, meanwhile, evened their NFL pointspread record at 3-3 on the season. The Browns have covered three straight after dropping their first three both straight up and against the spread. The 40 combined points went OVER the posted total of 37'. Pittsburgh has now gone OVER in four straight after starting the season with two UNDERs while the Browns evened their NFL totals mark at 3-3.

Pittsburgh dominated the game in virtually every statistical category. They amassed 28 first downs to 12 for Cleveland, held a 543 to'7 total yardage advantage and a 36:46 to 23:14 time of possession advantage. Most of the post game talk from both sides was about a controversial spot in the first half where the Steelers were given a first down on a short yardage play when it appeared that they didn't make the required yardage.

After the contest, Derek Anderson spoke of the frustration of continually coming up short against the Steelers. The Browns have only one once in ten games since Pittsburgh moved into their new home at Heinz Field:

"We're not trying to lose every time we go out here. We put tons of hours in and ... it's frustrating. Every single week, it's frustrating."

Steelers' tight end Heath Miller said the team is happy to be where they are at this point despite not playing up to their standards:

"I think we haven't played our best ball yet and that's pretty comforting. We've gotten a few wins here without playing our best."

The Steelers will host Brett Favre and the 6-0 Minnesota Vikings next Sunday. After a bye week, the Steelers will hit the road to play another undefeated team as they take on the Denver Broncos on Monday, November 9. Cleveland will host the Green Bay Packers this Sunda. They'll head to 'The Windy City' to face the Chicago Bears the following Sunday and then have a bye week.

The Process Of Brochure Printing Then And Now

By Allan Reeves

As marketing tools, brochures have never failed to register an impact on clients' minds. They can be circulated by hand or by mail to clients, or can just be placed on cash counters of stores. The need for brochures and their printing has led many printing services firms to dedicate themselves to this market. There have been many revolutionary transformations in brochure printing in recent decades and the internet along with digital technologies is fuelling many of them.

Previously, computers were hardly involved in the brochure printing process, which took several days, involved in working with film negatives or plate-making machines and required multiple test prints, rounds of fine tuning etc. Even in design, the clients could not offer detailed inputs and the printers mostly took care of the design task, working with a restricted set of pre decided formats.

Nowadays, the client himself can do the entire designing on a computer, and the brochures can be created in a much shorter timeframe than they could be some just a few years ago. Delivery of final prints in large quantities in a day's time is possible now, thanks to improvements in technology.

A vital aspect of brochure printing is that it entails important elements like formatting, content, and use of graphics. The digitisation of the printing process has radically transformed these aspects, providing a plethora of options, including higher quality full-colour printing, advanced and complex layout options, and content-building packages.

Clients these days most of the times favour colourful brochures and digital brochures amongst the latest types of brochures offered by printing services companies. Such brochures are fit to be distributed for a medium or longer period of time. But when it comes to brochure distribution in huge numbers, but for a restricted time span, then dazzling but brief brochures that undergo a brief print run fit the bill perfectly. To develop such brochures, nothing can be better than off-set printing, as a good number of prints can be created in a short time span, though it takes a little more time for all the pre-printing tasks in this technique.

Alongside the improvement in the standard of printing, ancillary services are now provided by most brochure printing firms as well. These include distribution, direct mailing, designing, and a lot more.

The internet has radically changed the scenario, with customers now visiting websites of printing companies and placing online orders after selecting designs and colour specifications from the comfort of their office. Hence, brochure printing has evolved a lot in recent years, and is about to undergo even more innovative changes in the coming years.

In Truth, technology makes life easy, most particularly in business sector. Brochure printing grows more competitive, thus, make use of technology the most out of it and be imaginative as you can.
