10/18/06 13:29:44 Jan_*Who_can_t_get_on_the_puter*: When she sees how well she's been promoted, she send fiery little darts, and kudos my way, and I feel all good inside, because I'm not only MARKETING my business, using the voices of my network (word of mouth) but also promoting a friend's product.
10/18/06 13:29:54 Jan_*Who_can_t_get_on_the_puter*: sends*

10/18/06 13:31:09 Jan_*Who_can_t_get_on_the_puter*: Promoting your friends in your business promotions, not only builds your business but increases theirs.
10/18/06 13:32:17 *Ginger-DocUmeant: and this is all part of your marketing plan?
10/18/06 13:32:20 Jan_*Who_can_t_get_on_the_puter*: You could charge for those services, but in reality, you're gaining ground there - because if someone is looking for Orgasmic Cappuccino Brownies they are going to find them ON MY WEB PAGE... It became a key phrase and brought an unsuspecting client to my
10/18/06 13:32:42 Jan_*Who_can_t_get_on_the_puter*: Business promoting both Gloria's brownies (or Liz's as the case may be)
10/18/06 13:32:51 Jan_*Who_can_t_get_on_the_puter*: And My business.
10/18/06 13:33:08 Jan_*Who_can_t_get_on_the_puter*: Because the unsuspectingly landed on my page.

10/18/06 13:33:57 Jan_*Who_can_t_get_on_the_puter*: Maybe not - but the promotion worked because they will notice that I'm a marketer - and they'll remember that little ploy that got them there.
10/18/06 13:34:21 Jan_*Who_can_t_get_on_the_puter*: And if they like the brownies, they may come back to see what else I offer.... Probably NOT orgasmic, but it works.
10/18/06 13:34:30 *Ginger-DocUmeant: lol
10/18/06 13:34:51 *Ginger-DocUmeant: if not pretty darn close!

10/18/06 13:35:55 *Ginger-DocUmeant: besides networking on the biz marketing plan what other modes should we consider?
10/18/06 13:36:16 Amanda_Hamm: nope, you did a good job explaining it all I think
10/18/06 13:36:26 Jan_*Who_can_t_get_on_the_puter*: LOL
10/18/06 13:37:26 Jan_*Who_can_t_get_on_the_puter*: Any concerns?
10/18/06 13:37:38 *Ginger-DocUmeant: see question above Jan
10/18/06 13:37:54 Jan_*Who_can_t_get_on_the_puter*: Lita, I know I hit on your business design...
10/18/06 13:38:49 Jan_*Who_can_t_get_on_the_puter*: I would recommend - PR Promotions, Building Business through Traffic (as with networking), and promoting resources...
10/18/06 13:39:02 *Ginger-DocUmeant: PR?
10/18/06 13:39:15 *Ginger-DocUmeant: like bumping shoulders?
10/18/06 13:39:29 Jan_*Who_can_t_get_on_the_puter*: Press Releases, ARticle Marketing, Bumping Shoulders, Talking, Etc...
10/18/06 13:39:55 Jan_*Who_can_t_get_on_the_puter*: Intense exchanges of SALES.
10/18/06 13:39:57 *Ginger-DocUmeant: Article Marketing
10/18/06 13:40:06 *Ginger-DocUmeant: what if I can't write?
10/18/06 13:40:21 Jan_*Who_can_t_get_on_the_puter*: Article Marketing - placing yourself in a position of knowledge and self promotion.
10/18/06 13:41:02 Jan_*Who_can_t_get_on_the_puter*: Oh -- well, Ginger, in that case, call me, I'll write for you, charge you a 'nominal fee' and sell your business with link dynamics through article marketing.
10/18/06 13:41:28 *Ginger-DocUmeant: cool
10/18/06 13:41:42 *Ginger-DocUmeant: is that like ghost writing?
10/18/06 13:41:44 Amanda_Hamm: and just what is the nominal fee?
10/18/06 13:42:01 Jan_*Who_can_t_get_on_the_puter*: Another means of getting that Article Marketing is to do Interviews with writers, to promote their business, while scavaging a link to yours.
10/18/06 13:42:08 *Ginger-DocUmeant: and what IS Ghost writing anyway?
10/18/06 13:42:47 *Ginger-DocUmeant: Good ? Amanda.
10/18/06 13:43:05 *Ginger-DocUmeant: Wow, that's a good idea Jan!
10/18/06 13:43:08 Jan_*Who_can_t_get_on_the_puter*: Ghost Writing is writing for another person, for a price, and not putting YOUR name on teh document.
10/18/06 13:43:32 *Ginger-DocUmeant: Oh, is that expensive?
10/18/06 13:43:42 Jan_*Who_can_t_get_on_the_puter*: A nominal fee can be almost anything --- in my case - a 250 word article is $25.00
10/18/06 13:44:21 Amanda_Hamm: not bad at all, a well spent $25 for sure, considering it is lifetime exposure correct?
10/18/06 13:44:30 Jan_*Who_can_t_get_on_the_puter*: Yes.
10/18/06 13:44:40 *Ginger-DocUmeant: what about a 600 word article?
10/18/06 13:45:12 *Ginger-DocUmeant: I think that is what most article hosts want.
10/18/06 13:47:29 Jan_*Who_can_t_get_on_the_puter*: $60
10/18/06 13:47:46 *Ginger-DocUmeant: cool, thanks Jan
10/18/06 13:48:07 *Ginger-DocUmeant: do you submit them for us too?
10/18/06 13:48:16 Jan_*Who_can_t_get_on_the_puter*: Essentially, if I'm writing it to GIVE AWAY RIGHTS, I'm not going to sell it for nothing.
10/18/06 13:48:24 Jan_*Who_can_t_get_on_the_puter*: I can - that costs extra.
10/18/06 13:48:32 Jan_*Who_can_t_get_on_the_puter*: $5.00 per submission.
10/18/06 13:48:44 *Ginger-DocUmeant: wow that is worth the headache!
10/18/06 13:49:06 Jan_*Who_can_t_get_on_the_puter*: IT actually takes me about 2 minutes to submit..
10/18/06 13:49:13 *Ginger-DocUmeant: lol
10/18/06 13:49:19 *Ginger-DocUmeant: would take me hours!

10/18/06 13:52:01 *Ginger-DocUmeant: any other good marketing considerations we should list?
10/18/06 13:52:21 *Ginger-DocUmeant: What about buttons, plugboards, print ads? Do they really work?
