    You Do Judge a Book or Ebook by Its Cover
    Do you buy ugly books? Probably not. Book covers sell books. Ask any bookstore manager. Ask any successful Web site that sells books."Don't judge a book by its cover." We've all heard this saying before but the truth is, we all do it anyway.First impressions greatly influence how we judge people. Impressions are no less important when it comes to the items we buy.

    Those Wonderful Women Truckers
    Presently, there are about 8 million licensed CDL drivers in the United States. Approximately 4.5 million of these are active truck drivers. Professional truck driving, specifically over the road trucking, has always been noted as a field dominated by men. The rough and tough trucking life could only be handled by a real man . . . well, times are chan
    Email Aesthetics

    It`s an old, old saying, but it`s true: you only have one chance to make a good first impression. And in email, the first impression is always visual -- a consumer LOOKS/SEES before he/she READS.

    Imagine walking by a grotesquely garish storefront with all kinds of things hanging off the front porch, every floor painted a different color, and odd music playing through loudspeakers. Would you want to walk in the front door? No way! You`d assume that the owner is a kook, at best, or a deranged axe murderer, at worst.

    Did you ever have an ugly looking email land in your mailbox? You know what I`m talking about: an orange background and yellow borders, multi-colored text in all sizes from gigantic to microscopic, a message that looks like it was created by a crazed six-year-old? If you did, I bet you didn`t feel the urge to read it. You probably just wanted to delete it as quickly as possible.

    => DO`s and DON`Ts FOR ATTRACTIVE EMAILS

    -DON`T use COLOR fonts in your message. (Leave that to junior high girls who want to write about Britney and Justin)

    -DO use BLACK TEXT ON A WHITE BACKGROUND. (When you`re "speaking" in black-and-white, people will give their full attention to your message without being distracted by your color scheme.)

    Passing the Torch-Next Generation Leadership
    I don’t have a lot of memories of my Dad since he left the family when I turned six and passed away when I was only nine years old but there is one memory that seems to be burnt into my brain. It was a day when just he and I were together. I was only five years old and he decided it was time to teach me how to swim. We didn’t have a swimming pool; in fact, we lived out in the woods

    Product Creation Secrets – How to Create a New Ebook or Video per Month, Easy III
    Once you have decided on what niche you intend to write, write down a few possible topics. Then you should search the internet for other ebooks on your topics and find out if there are any gaps that you could fill. There is little point in writing on losing weight if there already a million ebooks out there competing with you. It might be more lucrative to write on the dangers of

    => GET HYPER" WITH EMAIL HYPERLINKS

    An "email hyperlink" is just techno-talk for a link in your email to a website, or email address. Sounds simple enough, and it is -- unless you try to contact a prospect on AOL who may not be able to receive "clickable" links.

    Don`t worry. There`s a "fix" for this: simply type mailto: in front of your email address (no space in between, and include the : )

    => ALWAYS USE SIGNATURE TAGS

    Today, it`s common practice on the Internet to tell people about your product or service with a SIGNATURE TAG, which is 3-6 lines of text (usually) that is automatically added to every message you send.

    If you`d like to add a tag to your messages, simply open your email program. Find the SIGNATURES TAB (located in the TOOLS/OPTIONS menu in Outlook Express). Follow the (simple) instructions for creating a sig file. Easy as pie...and the results will amaze you.

    Sincerely,
