    Franchises for Sale - To Buy Or Not To Buy
    Franchising is a business model where a franchisee gets the permission start a branch that uses the name and methods of the franchisor in exchange for royalty fees. It differs a bit from starting your own business due to the fact that you are using the proven business strategy of an established company. An article by the Financial Times concluded that sales by franchises in the U

    Autoresponders for Beginners
    Hi you may or may not know that your Autoresponder in your first few months promoting your service, product or opportunity, is the most important tool in your box!So, you have just joined your new business or taken on a new product that you would like to make you a few $ or a lot of $ on the net, first thing you must do is get yourself an Autoresponder.You can get t
    When I was listening to Jordan Ayan of SubscriberMail.com mention the importance of Relevant Content as it applies to email marketing I thought to myself that 99.9% of the so-called email marketers need to hear this.

    For years I have worked as a translator between the online world an Main Street. I have consistently tried to point out to online marketers - that they need to make their copy relevant to the mainstream business community. That their message should not be written for their (the marketer's) colleagues to read, but for people with traditional businesses to understand and see the values in, for them.

    In the beginning the email marketers relevancy test hit the "home run" wall. Every message was directed at companies large enough to have IT staffs just waiting for their otherwise indecipherable message. Back in 2000 at the Internet Expo in new York, I met a guy who was manning a booth for one of the important players (since gone broke, oops) - when he saw my press badge he was all over me.

    I asked him, as I looked at the spectacular booth with its flashy displays, who his company did business with. His response was typical - Fortune 500 companies. I didn't let him down but my first thought was that what they needed was 500 well sourced email addresses - not a million dollar booth.

    When you develop your email campaign, having a subject line that is relevant (and clever enough to get them to open it) and a message that is relevant to them, right then.

    Technology allows us to personalize our email messages. I'm pretty sure no one that any of us want to do business with is so out of touch that they think we actually wrote specifically to them.

    The Smallest and Most Damaging Mistakes Made by Sellers on eBay - Part 2
    How can a small mistake, be one of the most damaging mistake? I've labeled it as such, because they are considered minor to a lot of sellers. But if not planned on or thought about carefully, they could damage your chances of making a lot of money.For instance, when you go to an auction listing and see a Powerseller logo beside the userid of the eBay seller, what is one of

    Competitors and Local Code Enforcement
    If you are a small businessperson then chances are you have had a situation occur where another small business or larger competitor has used the local Government code enforcement officer to harass you. This is a common occurrence and it is unfortunate that they do not teach this at the SBA seminars.The good old boy network that occurs in most cities is alive and well in t

    Domain Name in Bad Faith or Intent?
    Registering a domain name with malicious intent or in bad faith is popularly called Cybersquatting in WWW. This is usually done for monetary reasons whereby one books a domain similar to a registered trademark or copyright of any known company and then tries to sell it to the concerned company at an exorbitant price.For example, if one registers a domain nike.net and then

    What is your company's message, does your email campaign build consistently on that message? It's trite but true - "what's in for me?" is still the key.

    When the message is not relevant - specifically to the particular recipient of the email - it doesn't matter how many bells and whistles it has, they will not read it, much less take action on it.

    I get lots of email from strangers, every day. I can sniff out the potentially relevant ones instantly, by their subject line, the words and phrases they use, and delete 99.9% of them. When I do open one, the first 2-3 lines are all I see most of the time, before trashing them and relegating the sender to the junk filters.

    That's what you're up against. Stay away from cute, stick to a relevant message that will get action. And if you don't know the people you're contacting well enough to have at least some idea what might be relevant to them - don't clutter up cyberspace.
