Flesh Eating Spiders And Other Marketing Horrors

[caption id="attachment_69" align="alignright" width="231" caption="Don't Get Caught In The Web of Marketing Horrors"][/caption] After a friend was bitten by a spider, I decided to do some research to find out more about the spider. I came across a website that decided to create a marketing message that focused on fear based selling and over the top lies. To emphasize the fear based factor, the website was illustrated with pictures of spider bite 'victims' that had huge holes in their skin from where the small spider bite supposedly turned into a flesh eating monster. One photograph caption went way over the top by stating that the victim of a horrific spider bite ...

Why You Can’t Budget For Success

For a better tuning please call: Ray Meinhardt, Piano Technician 218-631-3451 ====================================== Although the heading was centered and bold, it wasn't an effective headline ...

Stretching The String: Five Tips To Maximize Your Marketing

[caption id="attachment_55" align="aligncenter" width="100" caption="Maximize Your Marketing Dollars"][/caption] "I know I need to market my business in order to grow my business, but right now I can't afford it."

They are hanging on by a frayed string that will break at any moment, resulting in any chances at a successful business to come crashing down. But it doesn't have to happen that way. Instead of focusing on what they don't have and not doing anything to market their business, struggling business owners should focus on making the most of what they do have. If you are ...

[caption id="attachment_52" align="aligncenter" width="300" caption="Create Amazing Sales!"][/caption] "Yeah right!" I thought to myself as I started to turn off the TV after hearing that the show was about a dancing horse. I couldn't imagine watching a documentary about a dancing horse and its rocky road to success. I was very skeptical but curious enough to see if this horse could actually dance. After all, the truth is sometimes stranger than fiction -- and a real life dancing horse beats a fictional talking horse. I was amazed to see the elaborate venue set up for this horse. The audience was dressed as if they were attending an Opera, and the venue was ...
