Life in Philippines

Back to work

The Philippines have a strange way of celebrating Christmas a big build up, then a day of celebration and straight back to work. I do not understand the use of fireworks to celebrate Christmas, and to be honest find them most annoying, fire crackers and banger just serve to make a noise, disturb people and frighten pets and livestock.

I can only imagine it is some Chinese tradition but would have preferred that they restricted the noise to new year and provide some colourful fireworks.

My Father spent Christmas in hospital in the UK and the rest of my family celebrated at home.

Business wise, matters are quiet at the moment, but I will be starting a new campaign in a weeks time, in the mean time its a matter of just checking and updating websites in preparation.

Hopefully we will have a meeting with our lawyer this week to continue on with the great paper chase to relocate to Europe.

Life in the Philippines

Christmas is coming

Christmas is just over a week away and shopping is becoming a chore, with tricycles and cars clogging up the streets, the best way about town is by mountain bike, but I have noticed lately that air pollution is getting worse, there is a definite haze in the traffic areas. Last week I delivered my Christmas promotions to the local businesses and will see if they bear fruits in the future. Ben our dog is due for his annual anti rabies shot, but the vet informed me yesterday he is out of supplies, it seems that many more people are getting their dogs vaccinated these day, hopefully he will have new stocks next week. The vet confirmed my fears that when we move to Cyprus will be too costly to take the dogs with us as they do not have microchiping or suitable blood testing to meet European standards.

The first batch of carol singers made their rounds, but we are lucky that living in a gated community most are turned away at the gate. I am still not sure of what are plans are for Christmas , Jay and his grandmother are going to Manila next week but am not sure if they will return by Christmas Day, planning and organisation goes out of the window when living in the Philippines.

Business is quietening down for the holidays the only news in this area is the announcements of a change in direction for my veretekk business as it drops its affiliate program, which mean a drop in income from January, but a promise of more to come at ht end of the year.

Fully Automated Stock Trading

Auto trading stocks

I was reminded yesterday about a method of trading on the stock market with little risk, it involves using the worlds first fully automatic stock trading robot Cool Trade Pro. the program has been years in the making, I ran across it about 4 years ago but the price was to high for me. Basically it is your own home based stock broker which runs on your PC during trading hours and not only suggest stock and trades to make but enters and closes them for you.

It does not matter which way the stock market moves you can make money, no longer do you need to invest long term, there are three proven built in strategies which will cover every situation with out you having to analyse pages of information and charts, it is all done for you/

What more would you want, well the company now is offering the system for sale within the MLM market so that anyone can start earning money not only from using the software but also by selling it.

For the next six days there are some special offers which have been extended and offer some $7,500 in savings provided one moves quickly take a look at http://cooltrader.seriouswealth.net and you will see what I mean.

what Marketing Tool do you use ?

Advertising Tools

What are you you must have advertising/marketing tools that you use on a regular basis and how much are you prepared to pay for them.

Most people have their favourite tools such as Aweber for auto responders and Goto meeting for online meeting and webinar. Some people like to purchase domain names from one company and host with another, others use free hosting.

SEO consultancy services are important for some companies who may not have the time or resources to develop good search engine result strategies for their websites. There are some sites such as IBOtoolbox which offer free social marking and blogging and advertising services were subscribers can earn points which can be converted into advertising.

I myself prefer to pay for a complete suite of tools which are designed to work together but then I pay $55 a month for the privilege, about the same amount I would pay to use Aweber and Goto meeting. I believe I am getting great value for money, unlimited autoresponders ,webinar room. training,hosting including a dozen aged domains where I can add subdomains, an integrated social marketing and blogging systems incorporating smart RSS feed and more.

My question to you is what are you using, how much do you spend and what other tools do you feel are essential for advertising your business.

Sincerely,

Advertising Your Business

Is there value in Free

For a long time I have been preaching people to take care when signing up for something that is free, because there is little value in something that is free, usually marketers will entice customers with free offers, just like supermarkets, buy one get one free, sounds much better than 50% reduction.

I used to have a number of sites where I used to offer free leads, ebooks, software and even holidays for free and maybe I have suffered from being hoist my my own petard as these methods have proved to be largely ineffective.

Don't get me wrong in this worldwide economic downturn the word Free does attract a lot more people but the more discerning are aware of the catch. If you fill in contact details in a box online you can expect that someone will contact you to try and sell you something. so you must think carefully is what is being offered for free worth something to you.

One site I do like on the Internet is IBOToolbox, I have used it for a number of months and it has a few tools such as URL shorteners and a blogging system which can help improve your search engine results. It also allows you to advertise with banners and text boxes on its site for free, provide you remain active in a social way and this has helped my business.

Yes a few people have tried to sell me on their business, but I have my hands full with what I am doing, so I tend to ignore them, I look to help people to help themselves.

I am even now working on a project which I believe will change the online marketing arena forever, so watch this space.

Life in Philippines

Financial shock

This month my pension payment was reduced for some reason and caused a worrisome time. I was wondering is there had been a change in the UK to reduce pensions. It made be realise that I need to find an additional source of income to protect me in the future. Happily it has been resolved it was an administration error and after speaking to the UK tax office it will be corrected in the next payment/

I have not been able to afloat since moving to the Philippines so now I am trying my hand at virtual sailing in the Vendee Globe around the world race. Tactics and reading the weather are the keys to success, At the moment I am in the chasing pack closing in slowly on a group ahead who have run into lighter winds. I am hoping to catch the front of a new low pressure system to get me to the first ice gate off South Africa. The only problem being is that when I arrive it could be a windless area and many people being me will be closing on my heels. the highest position i have been is 100 but I dropped back to 130 due to a computer outage and am now clawing my way back currently in 109.

My computer outage was caused by a typhoon passing across Mindanao, thankfully only a few 100 people lost their lives compared to over a thousand last year as they had warnings to get into shelter. These typhoons are part of the change in global weather patterns and it is always the poor and ill-informed that seen to suffer.

Marketing Your Business

Do you have the right tools

Operating a business weather online or offline requires you as a business owner to invest time and money to become successful, there is no magic short cut, even someone such as Ed Mercer a Billionaire spends many hours a day on the phone talking to people about his business ventures.

Ed Mercers latest project is to create 100 new millionaires, he has done the hard part and researched the market and selected a product that will provide the best way of achieving his Goal of creating a new Guinness World Record. He has agreed to share what he is doing with 100 people and mentor them to success. If you believe you have what it takes, then why not join him.

Ed Mercer certainly know how to work offline but is surprisingly a novice when it comes to the Internet, however he has learnt that the Internet can vastly expand his sphere of influence so is making full use of lead capture pages, autoresponders, blog,conference rooms and social marketing systems to spread the word provided by a leading marketing company with a track record of success.

You can spend quite a lot of money if you purchase subscriptions on an ad hoc basis for example Aweber charge $19 a month for a basic system and this increases as your subscriber list grows. GoToMeeting costs $49 a month for a small room,

You can very soon find your costs mounting from $70-100+, as you add more items such as blogging systems, hosting and the like, so it makes far more sense to find a package that integrates all your tools in one place.which makes your business us easier to administer.

Making Money

Money Exchanges

The current financial downturn has resulted in many people having to tighten their belts and seek way of reducing expenditure. One area I have been looking at in the past month is the cost of moving currency from one country to another. Now I used to actively trade Forex in the past so know that financial institutions can make some good profits when buying and selling money.

I have in the past carried out monthly transfers via my bank where they not only charge 20 pounds for a standard transfer but also make money on the exchange rate as well. I carried out some research and found a company called Money Corp based in the UK who not only provide bank transfer free of charge but also have offer one the best rates for PHP which is good as the Philippine peso is growing stronger

Life in Philippines

Life Drifts on

Very little happening in the Philippines this past week, yes they are gearing up for Christmas a major celebration time for them. Traffic is busier in Dipolog city. They have been repainting the pedestrian crossings, not sure why because most motorists ignore them. Maybe one reason is the paint seems to wear off in a matter of days, and there are no warning signs or beacons so they are hard to see.

I learn something new yesterday as there was another 12 hour power outage and that is that the ATM's don't work unless the banks are open, it was a national holiday so banks where shut and it seems they do not have auto start generators. As I was not able to work online we decided to go shopping but that came to an end due to lack of cash. Oh the joys of being in a third world country.

Jasmin is still awaiting for a legal document to be processed, it would seem some documents went missing and we had to obtain a legal document from the post office to confirm it had been posted. We are now in December and if we do not receive some good news this month all out plans for next year are in jeopardy.

I have finally made contact with my Son after a three year gap, something was blogging wither his or my email address, his news was not good as he has been made redundant, and at the same time I have become a grandfather.

Life in the Philippines

Waiting for results

I am not sure that the saying no news is good news, is good, we are still waiting for final confirmation of Jasmin's annulment and this probably now means that we will not have the documents until January with a knock on effect which will delay our movement to Cyprus until the summer.

We have one piece of good news that one of the documents we need is Police clearance here in Dipolog and we have been informed that this can be carried out in Dipolog city rather than having to travel to Manila as we were originally advised, however now the requirement for this document has also been delayed so once more be are back in waiting mode.

One item that I have been actively pursuing is the cost of moving currencies between countries and I have come across a number of options to using banks, which on the face of it can save money. Most banks make a standard charge of around $30 to transfer money, which if you are sending a small amount can make up a high percentage of the cost. In addition to the fixed charge they also earn a margin on the exchange rate. By using an FX broker service you can save between 3-5% on the money you transfer. I have signed up with a couple to find out what kind of saving I can make of transfer between the UK and Philippines and the UK and Cyprus. But in these difficult times even a few pounds per transaction soon adds up.

Postal service has improved a bit, but once again late delivery of time sensitive documents has cost me money. This is a sad state of affairs and needs to be addressed by the Government.

It would seem that law and order is starting to breakdown in Sindangan, where we used to live, with crimes of murder occurring on a daily rather than a monthly basis, not sure if this can be blamed on the upcoming elections which are due next year, which always increases crime figures.

Dipolog City - House and Lot For Sale

Original Article @ Dipolog house and Lot for Sale

We had a nasty little surprise this week when we discovered we had not paid our property tax for the year. we had received the title to our property in August, which showed that Property tax had been paid for 2011 and we assumed that that we would be informed when we were due to pay the current year tax. Never assume anything in the Philippines, apparently in Dipolog City, the Tax falls due quarterly in advance and home owners are notified by the posting of a notice outside city hall. This is fine if you happen to pass city hall and see the notice, otherwise you are in the dark. We ended up paying interest, which having become somewhat cynical, we believe is another way of making money out of people, maybe they did mail a reminder but then in a place where mail delivery is also suspect that is not the answer either.

The good news however is we have paid the property tax for 2013 as well so that the purchaser of our house will avoid the problem next year.

Till the next time

Millionaire Mentoring

Millionaire Mentoring.

When I started out working online many years ago the first thing i did was to find a mentor to guide and assist me in setting up a business. It was an intensive course lasting some nine months at the end of which I had a product that I had produced and could sell. Nowadays there are supposedly thousands of ways of making money online, if you believe what you see online. But in my opinion personal mentoring is the best, because you can share in success and failure and get feedback on you progress along the road to success.

When you learn to drive, you don't just jump in car and drive, you find someone who can teach you, so why is that people spend hundreds and sometimes thousands on a business and don't seek help from a mentor who can guide them to success.

It is far easier to work with someone who has been there before you, notice I said work, because you will still need to work on your success, there are no free rides, but you will be guided along the way. One of the most difficult things is deciding what you need to do to start earning money and this is where Billionaire Ed Mercer can help you. You see Ed Mercer loves to help people, he has already created 35 millionaires and now has taken up a challenge to create an additional 100 millionaires from ordinary people, for a new world record challenge.

He has done the hard part in finding a business which has a great compensation plan and a product that is used everyday. He has joined this together with a marketing system which is attracting hundred of people, to create a business plan. Part of this plan has been to set up an active group of people from around the world,who are prepared to do what it takes to improve their lives and the lives of others. This group shares information and helps one another to the extent that information and advice is available 24/7 if members have a question relating to the business of making money online.

This expanding group of people work together under the mentorship of Ed Mercer and share in the success that Ed's business perception brings. It is a win win situation the group members start to create serious wealth and Ed Mercer can expand his philanthropist help to worthy causes

If you have a true dream you want to follow, Ed Mercer can make your dream come true, the next step is to request further information by completing the form at http://seriouswealth.net and you will be invited to attend the next available live seminar to discover if you qualify to be mentored by Ed Mercer.

Life In the Philippines

post office deliveries

The local post office in Dipolog city has been the bane of my life since I moved here at the beginning of the year. i do not know how many letters have gone missing but know I have lost quite a few important one. It all came to a head ten days ago, when I eventually had gathered proof that my mail was been interfered with. On the day in question my wife collected a number of letters stamped as been received up to a month before, but which had not been de lived.

One letter I opened was a time sensitive letter from my bank wherein they informed me that if I did not reply in ten days they would remove an amount of money relating to an ongoing fraud case from my account. I returned to the Post Office and read the riot act, advising them they were failing in their duty to deliver the mail. They offered many excuses, not enough workers, the weather,sickness. I would have none of it. I went as far as suggesting that they write to the Postmaster general and request the Post Office be shut down. I left a formal complaint with them.

Now miraculously the post is working as it is designed I am getting a regular supply of mail again. so it seems they can do their jobs.

I question sometimes why it is difficult to get people to do what they are paid to do, I do not know how many times have walked into shops and watched staff chatting to each other rather than assisting customers or even worse texting or using mobile devices.

Perhaps I am old fashioned but I used to like to think that I was paid what I felt I was worth, If I was not being paid enough I could leave. Sometimes it was a matter of more than money, I would do jobs I enjoyed or once where I could learn and take on new skills. I have done a huge assortment of jobs in my life so far working for people, with people and for myself. I do not think I have ever been fired, I have always been the one move on. I have been lucky.

One of the most challenging businesses in my opinion is to help people earn money online, the the world of so called fast money, rip offs and scams. The truth is there is good consistent money being made online from Multi-level-marketing when done the right way with the right company. Multi-level-marketing is now being taught in colleges. If its good enough for Warren Buffet its good enough for anyone.

The basis of Multilevel marketing is building and duplication actions which sell products and services on which one can build commissions through multiple levels.

Finding something that works and can be duplicated is one of the secrets that people such as as Billionaire Ed Mercer has used in the past and is using now to create new millionaires. it is not rocket science merely common sense and anybody with a little bit of money, his guidance and advice can create serious wealth.

Life in the Philippines

Waiting on Bureaucracy

Having made our decision to leave the Philippines we are now in the hand of bureaucrats with regards to getting our paperwork in order and unfortunately here everything takes time which is very frustrating and is not making life any easier.

I am the kind of person who likes to get things moving and we have a tight deadline. The School year in the Philippines ends in March, so this is the earliest time we can move to Cyprus and will provide time for Jay to settle in prior to resuming his education in September which is the start of the School year. We have to register him in May so that is the latest departure date, to ensure he has a school placement.

The main problem is we need to formally adopt Jay, even though he has been living with us for two years and the authorities need time to consider this, in the best interests of the child. We know it is in Jay's best interests because a European education is far superior to what is available in the Philippines and most Filipinos leave the country anyway as the wages here are too low and they are better odd working abroad.

So for the next few months it seems I am going to have to bite my tongue and subject myself to what I see as unreasonable demands. Part of the problem is the Philippines is where we live, yes I have a UK passport but I have not lived there for 12 years so it seems crazy to ask questions in UK about about my recent past of which they have no knowledge. But here in the Philippines I am regarded as a foreigner and they expect that I have a home in another country, If I did I would not be living here now.

Another tropical storm has been working its way across the country this week, causing the using flooding and power outages which the locals just accept as a normal way of life.

How to Get Money

Return on Investment

How do people create wealth, well it does not matter who you are or what you do , you could be a billionaire like Ed Mercer or an ordinary individual working a nine to five job, but you need to find a vehicle which you can use to increase your wealth. Now at one time one of these vehicles was your home, however this was ruined by lenders lending more money than borrowers could reasonably repay, with the results that their loans exceeded the future value of houses and this caused the worldwide financial crisis which we are struggling to get out. There are however a number of other ways to get a good return on investment.

I do not recommend High Yield Investment schemes unless you are prepared to lose your investment, but they can work for some people but are very risky for the unwary. One business which I am involved with is a pre-launch Forex company and in fact you do not even have to risk $1, they give you $100 in seed money to advertise their new Forex trading system and until the company formally launches you benefit from any gains or loses the system makes, the latest trade last week added another 9% to my account which is now approaching $1,200. Yes it is an advertising ploy to attract people but if they join when the company launch there are monthly commissions available which could prove regular income of one or two thousand dollars all from zero investment. Even if the business never launches you have lost nothing but perhaps when it does it will have created some money to start you on the journey to greater wealth.

People look to the Internet to earn money and it is difficult to discern which are good and which are bad for a long time Zeek rewards was flavour of the month but the business was not sustainable and many lost money they could not afford to lose.

The secret to securing a good return on your investment is to follow someone who is trustworthy and has a track record of success and one such person is Ed Mercer who has taken up a challenge with Guinness world records to create 100 new millionaires in this time of recession. If you want to share with his success you should join him on his challenge and reap the rewards of his research. A word of warning however, you will need to be prepared to commit time, money and effort to build your serious wealth, it not a program for dreamers it is for those people who are prepared to do what ever it takes to build success.

How to Become A Millionaire

Qualities of a Millionaire

Many people have dreams to become seriously rich and live like a millionaire but few people have the drive and enthusiasm to turn their dreams into really. Self made millionaires are not born everyday and many like Ed Mercer had serious difficulties to overcome, however the formula to gain success is very similar, they all get their money to work for then, In Eds Mercers case one way was to purchase properties renovate them and sell at a profit, now of course at the moment this method will not work very well.

I do have a friend however that does something similar and that is to purchase properties near to colleges and universities, convert them to student accommodation and rent them out, because there is no lack students trying to better themselves. At the last count he has nine or ten properties and this is increasing his net worth.

Net worth is the way in which millionaires are measured, not the amount of money they are earning, one of the secrets of becoming seriously rich is to get your money working for you. You do not want to have cash sitting in the bank or in a box or jars around the house you need to get it to work.

You need to have money to make money, if you do not have money, you have to find a way to create what is called seed money say $1,000 to $3,000. This seed money can then be invested to create your money tree. You cultivate you money tree by reinvesting the money the tree produces to create more trees. Eventually you will have a forest. One thing you have to remember is not to stop investing or sell you source without replacing it.

I have talked about trees because trees are important for all of us to support life but in places around the world like the Amazon, Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines and other places in Asia. The local people are being encouraged to sell the land that they have lived on for generations to Companies who will strip the trees from the land. Yes the villages receive money but at the same time they lose their source and once the money is spent they are poor, However some of the loggers not only make the money from selling lumber but may use the land in other way raising cattle or replanting to earn more income.

So the conundrum for most people is how to get started on your path to becoming a millionaire and raise the seed money. Here are some suggestions:-

  • Stop eating fast foods smoking and drinking and put the money in a money tree account which earns interest.
  • Hold a garage sale and get rid of the clutter in your life
  • Downsize your car, or use a bike or walk.
  • Cut you grocery bill use unbranded products rather than popular more expensive brands
  • Replace credit cards with debit cards that way you cannot spend what you have not got, you could go further and only spend money where you can use a debit card this is stop you spending money on non essentials.
  • Every day drop all your loose change in a jar and bank it in your money tree account

Yes you will make sacrifices but by concentrating on the essentials you will be making progress towards your goal and perhaps understand what is the difference between thinking about being rich and actually becoming rich - Controlling you money.

Once you have your seed money for you money tree Ed Mercer will be able to show you what he is doing to create 100 new millionaires.

Life in the Philippines

Bureaucracy in the Philippines

I have never known a nation like the Philippines for bureaucracy and I am sure most of it is to make money for the government and their cronies, Unfortunately at the moment I have a number of tasks to undertake before I leave the country which require dealing with government department.

Yesterday I need to get a simple police clearance, so I downloaded the form from the the National Bureau of Investigation and headed to the local office in Dipolog city, only to be told that as I am an Alien, I need to go to Manila some 1,000 Kilometres away. In a similar way there is no longer an immigration presence in Dipolog city so when my visa expires next week I need to travel some six hours to Cagayan Del Oro to renew it. Trying to get information and answers by email is virtually impossible.

I Compare this with getting information from Cyprus where I am planning to move to, with emails sent requesting information on Visa and residency questions being answered within hour of been sent and not requiring any travel. You may be thinking I am crazy to swop living in the Philippines where you can live like a prince on a few thousand dollars, compared to Cyprus where costs and taxes are higher, but there are a number of reasons no least being being able to qualify for a European passport for my Son to be wife and child. I do not wish to return to the UK as the weather is too cold, but can survive in Cyprus with hot summers and relatively warm winters.

The main reason however relates to lifestyle, it is a safer place to live as a millionaire and has good communications which is essential for me as I am working with billionaire mentor Ed Mercer and rely on the Internet to build serious wealth for myself and my family. Many people have dreams to be wealthy, but few really commit to the idea, I have discovered that many self made millionaires share Ed's experience starting life with little or no money and building a strategy to succeed.

Creating serious wealth

Earlier this year became involved with some HYIP investments as a test to see if they worked. I had never really trusted them as they where attached to payments systems which I did not trust. However I found a couple that were supported by Payza, so I used that as a marker because I have used Payza and it predecessor for a number of years. All was going well until Payza without warning down supporting Hyip systems, with the result I could not withdraw my money.

I lodged a dispute with Payza requesting them to recover the money I had in the investment, not expecting to hear anything, then yesterday I had a pleasant surprise when I was informed that the had recovered 20% which actually matched by start up investment so it was a good deal. perhaps I was lucky, but I no longer would recommend anyone to invest in HYIP systems unless it is with money they can afford to lose.

My Pre-launch Forex business continues to gain with a further trade in the last week breaking through the $1,000 level, not bad for a free account with a credit of $100. the account is being managed at the moment so it is an easy way to start building up some capital for when the company launches, there is of course no risk because there was no start up cost.

I am now focussing all my efforts on ED Mercer's 100 millionaire's challenge project, the program has to be seen to be believed, There are not many people who have access to someone of Ed stature, who can provide advice on how to grow your wealth. Is is a serious business far removed from anything you have seen or heard about before. Ed Mercer has achieved virtually everything he has set out to do, so there is no reason to believe he will not succeed with his latest challenge.

Life in the Philippines -Business

Operating a Business in the Philippines

I have been reviewing my business commitments and as I have mentioned in previous posts the Philippines is a hard place to operate business, not only are the margins small but people who live in the provinces are on low wages.

I know of many people who have set up local businesses operating resorts, restaurants and bars, but they struggle to earn a living and have to rely on income from abroad to make ends meet. Don't get me wrong the Philippines is great place to live and your money goes a long way, but if you need to work the rewards are not worth the effort.

Yes you can hire workers for very little cost but to have good results you need to keep on top of what they are doing. The pace of life is slow here and you need to set aside quite a lot of time to get business transactions completed and there is a love of needing lots of paperwork.

I have been setting up a business connected with Ed Mercers 100 millionaires challenge and that has been a challenge and an eye opener in itself. As an Internet marketer branding is very important and one point I always stress is if the company has a website it is important that they use an email address connected to the website but here many companies just use a yahoo address. Just yesterday I received a reply to an email sent over a month ago to the manager of a company official email address, she apologised saying that it was a new address and she normally used yahoo. Is this the way to run a serious business?

I suppose local people who operates business just do as others before them and know no better, but for those who have dreams of expanding or attracting business from overseas they need to make great changes in the way they work, including removal of corrupt business practices.

I was happy to start setting up a business here but for the past 18 months have been banging by head against a brick wall, I now see that the time has come to move to an area where business ethics and practices are more inline with my thinking so rather than complaining, I am going to vote with my feet and an put together an exit plan in line with my goal for building serious wealth.

Millionaire Mentoring to Create Serious Wealth

There are a number of millionaires who provide mentoring to business minded people, not only to build their wealth but also to educate them into how to handle money and the attention that wealthy people attract. So how successful is millionaire mentoring and where can you find a millionaire mentor.

Well I have been lucky to have come in contact with Millionaire Ed Mercer via his 100 millionaires challenge, and I find it refreshing that he has so much time to offer towards guiding and influencing people to achieve success. Mentors can inspire you not only to reach your dreams but to pursue goals that far exceed your dreams. Yes you do need to be trainable, disciplined and one hundred percent committed to achieve success.

I had in fact heard about Ed many years ago when he was concerned about environmental issues in Costa Rica, so I did a little research and it appears he has been successful in the past in creating 35 millionaires, although this new challenge is mind blowing his track record speaks for itself and I am sure he will succeed or even surpass his goal:-

"Ed is one of those magnetic figures that brings out the best in those that are looking for guidance," said John Woods, "and so very thankful that God led me down the path where I was able to connect with this talented individual who has taught me so much from an Entrepreneurial standpoint and in particular to being a Leader in this Industry … from Ed I have learned how important it is to help others as their success will eventually be returned to the originator many times over and a daily focus for myself with every great individual I am proud to call a Team Member!"
John Woods

Times are hard for many people not only in Europe and America but around the world and many people have found themselves thrust into poverty, now Ed Mercer does not give monetary handouts but instead provides advice and mentoring to help people pick themselves up and get back to chasing their dreams, People such as Kent Adams:-

"As a custom home builder, my family and I were hit very hard by the banking industry bust and real estate crash. In short, between 2009 and 2011, we lost everything. My business was gone. Our home got foreclosed on. My truck was repossessed as my two youngest sons watched. It was a nightmare. Last spring, I met Ed Mercer at the Summits Wealth Creation Conference in Richmond, and started getting personally mentored by him. Since then, I have been able to start several new business ventures, purchase our dream home for my family, and buy a Mercedes Benz. What a difference a year makes!"

Starting a Serious Business

Turning Failure into Success

Did you know that 85% of small business businesses fail in their first year and the two main reasons are lack of experience and insufficient capital. If you have considered starting your own business you will no doubt have searched online and come across many thousand of opportunities. some are good, some are bad and others just rip offs to get you money. So how do you choose, well look at the main causes of failure.

What kind of experience do you have that can build a business, if you are a salesperson them maybe select something in sales and marketing, or maybe you have a talent that can be turned into a business, you can make or sell online. You could consider an MLM but you need to research them thoroughly and they can be quite restrictive in what you do.

Next how much money do you have to invest and this is in my opinion where many fail. Every business needs money to start off, so take off your list all the so called opportunities that are on offer for free. The other fact is that the more money you lay out to start of the more you will be committed to make your business work. Most people can spend $50-100 and not even miss it so they are not bothered about success or failure. At the other end a franchise business will cost you hundreds of thousands of dollars and you will work hard to get a return on your investment over a number of years until you are in profit.

Now times are hard at the moment and I would suggest you choose a conservative mode. If you are serious you need to raise around $5,000 to building your business. You can build success, it is money you cannot afford to lose, so your are more likely to take your business seriously and do what ever it is you need to do to be successful. You probably do not want to commit the full amount initially but hold some back to cover contingencies.

Getting started is always difficult, it part of the challenge of living, you need to remain focussed on you goals and as you start earning money feed some back to continue growing your business. It also helps to mix with other successful people, for some reason some of their success rubs off on you.

Better Home based Business

Communications

Have you ever wondered why the human race can speak, well it is so we can clearly communicate with one another both socially and in business. Good verbal communication can greatly increase business success. One only has to look at the growth of mobile phones and tablet PC's which enhance communications no matter where you are.

Business communications is best done face to face, as it not only allows you to talk and listen but also provides feedback information on who people look and react during questions and answers. To some extend VOIP videoconferencing has extended what i regard as the prime mode of communications when building a better home based business.

Face to face communications also allow you to hand over and share documents during meetings and again get instant feed back ,if you send information by email, chat or SMS you cannot be sure that anyone reads it.

there is a definite art in attracting people to a capture page when advertising your business it must have the best mix of information and text so nowadays many business use video's to promote what they are doing and then provide a form for interested people to receive more information.

Many business's use autoresponders to reply to queries, however once again there is no way of knowing if the message will get through or even read, so the most successful way is to call the person on the phone and speak to them in person. this may take a lot of time when people have voicemails systems, so one may use other tools such as SMS if the call is to a mobile or even using Skype VOIP system where one can connect and send chat messages as well. but at the end of the day using the phone will always have the best result.

I am a project coordinator with ED Mercer a Successful Billionaire who spend up to 8 hours a day on the phone and has little use of computers, even when he is running his present project to create a 100 new millionaires from ordinary people who have the commitment to do something with their lives.

Advertising Your Business

Advertising Tips

Anyone who operates a business knows that advertising is essential for for business success, but few small businesses can afford the high cost it entails, so imagine having a business that is built on a duplicatable process that includes advertising and mentoring.

The more money you have in your advertising war chest the better level of customers you will attract, if you use free advertising services as many home based businesses do you will have very low quality leads when you have a larger budget and start advertising in papers magazines and radio programs the quality of your leads grows exponentially.

The content of your ads is also an important point according to David Ogilvy who wrote a book Titled Confessions of an Advertising Man.

"Unless you campaign is built around a great idea it will flop"
Witty slogan just do not cut it consumers are much more interest in true facts. The more factual information you cam pack into you advert the better will be the result.

Now I am working with Ed Mercers on his 100 Millionaires Guinness world record challenge and at the moment we have approaching a $50,000 advertising budget for your benefit. The deadline to share in this co-operative, is Sunday so you need to get onboard soon

The advertising budget has been built in less than 30 days of test promotions of Ed's Millionaire mentoring and provides $50,000 to spend this coming month for the benefit of all those who sign up at by Sunday Night

Do you have what it takes to earn a million or more then check out Ed Mercer because he will be your personal mentor to guide you to success

Do You Have Whatever It Takes

You cant live on Enough

When you ask people how much money they want to earn quite often they will reply with just enough to live on. The problem at the moment is living costs are increasing and wages are not keeping pace so your standard of living is falling.

Occasionally you meet someone who has a dream, I spoke with one yesterday and this is what he said :-

"See the thing is, I want to unite this world and stop wars. From there we can find ways to convert salt water into fresh water, cure cancer, solve the food crisis.. Everything can be solved if we work together. But I honestly need money.. Lots of it.. That's why I was drawn to Ed mercer and his goal. It would please me greatly for helping Ed be happy with his 5th record, but I am still a little confused and need just some help to get my foot in the door.

You know.. Someone to have faith in me in these horrible times.. If I coulda taken out a loan I would have for college (that's why I'm not going college this year cuz financial problems) but I still hold fast to my dream because someday I will accomplish it. But I have no one who will see what I can do. People just look at my past and see that I'm not worth their time.. Just like the scholarship committees..

I'm not looking for a hand out.. I just need a little help.. I will pay them monthly. Well a small pay.. But cuz I work at an elementary skool and they don't pay much"

Now here is a person who has a dream and belief that he is in this world to make a difference. Yet he is only earning some $300 a month, now I had seen a program on something called "group funding" so I gave him a link and he went to it and checked it out

Later he came back to me and said

"Wow thank you. This might actually work. I may need some help with people liking it. Cuz it says that I need to post/tweet and raise money for it to tilt."

You know what it made me feel great as well to help someone who has enough to live on start on the path to reach his dream of becoming a millionaire and helping others.

Whatever it Takes

Do you have what it takes to succeed

It really amazes me with all the opportunities that abound that so few people succeed in creating serious wealth. Do you know who is to blame, no not not your sponsor, not the company, not the products. Its YOU.

Take a look at successful people, they are always seeking ways to increase their wealth to fulfil lifetime ambitions of helping other people or other projects. They research projects and then apply themselves 100 % to the task to get their money working with a good return.

Now one thing that holds most people back is they complicate matters. It like asking directions from someone if you are lost and rather than following the path provided which will take you to your destination you think you know better and go off your own way and get lost.

I see this happening on a daily basis, now some people are borne leaders and some are followers but at times a leader will become a follower in areas where someone else has better knowledge knowledge or expertise. I used to manage and lead a team of international adventure racers covering 500-1000 miles in 5-10 days using non powered transport, trekking, kayaks etc. Generally the best qualified person in a particular sport led that particular leg. It was very important to following instruction to the letter as mistakes could result in death and we were often in remote areas of the Jungle.

Determination is another trait of winners no matter what stands in you way you need to do whatever it takes. It took me 3 years and thousands of dollars to officially cross the finish line of an adventure race.

I am now learning how to create serious wealth learning from an expert Billionaire Ed Mercer, and what he and his team say I will do without hesitation because I know that success breeds success.

Do You Want To Be Wealthy

Do you want to be wealthy?

Did you know that you can get whatever you want if you think about it in the right way and commit to getting it. How you think about it matters, but commitment is essential to achieve your goal. The more specific you can be the better.

It is just not good enough just to think "I would like to be wealthy" or even " I would like to be wealthy". Keeping saying an affirmation "I will be wealthy is better".

But when you commit to be wealthy, the universal laws of attraction will start working for you and you need to start homing in with the details what exactly you want to achieve, why you want to achieve it and commit yourself to a date when you will achieve it.

I am lucky to be working with Ed Mercer a Billionaire who right now is setting out to create 100 millionaires from people like you and me, within the next 18 months. He has done the hard work by identifying a method which he can duplicate a hundred times or more. Focussing on but a single goal and doing whatever it takes to get there.

The question I have for you today is are you ready to commit to being wealthy and to follow the path to success, by doing whatever you need to do to achieve success in your life, if so check out Ed Mercer's site.

Do yoo know the sevret of wealth

What is the difference between a millionaire and you ?

The answer is their attitude to money. You see how you manage your money, is a vital step in becoming wealthy, yes I know there are a few that inherit or win millions, but I am talking about the ones who go out and and make a mint from nothing.

You see there many people who claim you can make thousands by doing this or that business, if it was that easy millions would be rich, but they are not. Because they have not researched and got a proven system and they are not been mentored by someone who was achieved their goals multiple times.

I am lucky to be working with Ed Mercer a Billionaire who right now is setting out to create 100 millionaires from people like you and me, within the next 18 months. He has done the hard work by identifying a method which he can duplicate a hundred times or more. Focussing on but a single goal and doing whatever it takes to get there.

The path to success has been laid out with simple instructions to follow. The first question many ask is "will it work", and the answer is yes, he has already created many millionaires before and has a number of Guinness Book of Records entries to prove it. So knowing that the answer is "it will work" are you prepared to risk your hard earned money to succeed yourself. If you want to develop a millionaire mindset, You will do what you have to do to get mentoring from him, just listen to what Ed has to say:

Life In the Philippines

Life in the Philippines
On the Up and Up

For a few weeks now I have been planning a major improvement in my Lifestyle, my net worth has been under attack as goods and services cost more and exchange rates and investments have lost value. So it it time to take some action.

I rediscovered one of my business books which had been stuffed in a box in cupboard until we find some bookshelves and its a book about mastering the inner game of wealth. One chapter which I re read during a recent power outage is about how your mind conditions you to be poor or wealthy and is the reason why if you get a big windfall, you will blow it all away. But you can prevent this and recondition your mind to accept wealth.

Now I have been content with my life having been retired for over 12 years and been able to do what ever I wanted. But now I have extra responsibilities and I need more money to further improve my lifestyle and the lives of others around me. so I have taken up a challenge to become a millionaire.

I am working with a Billionaire Ed Mercer who is in the process of turning 100 ordinary people into Millionaires for an Entry in the Guinness Book of World Records. He already hold 4 other entries for helping people.

Ed has partnered with a marketing company called Veretekk, where I'm am a volunteer trainer who have built a duplicable system to create wealth no matter who you are.

There are less than 200 positions left in the core team so you will need to act fast

People are being placed according to time stamp

Get involved right now and get people placed under you:-

Life In the Philippines

Life in the Philippines

The Olympics is winding down to a closure, and what a scene it has been, Great Britain punching above their weight to maintain a third place in the Medals tables, with fabulous Television program and recording of every sport. You cannot me moved by the stories of these athletes who have been pursuing their dreams for the past four years or more, putting their lives on hold in the quest for gold.

Now is the time for reflection, some will retire, others will plan to return to higher things in Rio and a new breed will be encouraged to take part. that is the Legacy of the Olympics.

I too have been reflecting on my own life and see now is the time to move ahead with my life in the Philippines. I want to improve the lifestyle of the people close to me. It is the time to take on new challenges and set up plans for the next few years ahead. My net worth has suffered this year with worldwide depression eating away at my assets, so the time is right for action.

I have joined with a new group of entrepreneurs, who have dreams similar to my own, because the power of team is greater than that of the the individual members. We are being being led by a Billionaire who holds a number of Guinness Book of records, with the aim to create 100 millionaires from ordinary people like ourselves.

I invite you to follow me over the weeks and months as I take on my own challenge and one of my goals is to to attend the Next Olympic games in Rio at sit on Copacabana beach to watch a new breed of British sailors win gold.

The Winning Team

Why coaching is important to success

The Olympics has somewhat taken over my life at the moment, as a former athlete I know what it takes to get to the top of your sport, years of training, hard work and chasing down goals. It is very similar in becoming successful with a home based business. coaching or mentoring is essential to success. When you look at the UK rowing, sailing and cycling teams these close knit teams have laid everything aside to plan for the 2012 Olympics. Nothing is left to chance each athletes has a goal and the path to that goal was planned in detail. According to French magazine Equipe the secret weapon of the cycling team is "a round wheel" but the details are more than that. Personal hygiene is important in the smallest detail from washing your hands to how you sleep, even going as far as travelling with your own pillow.

I firmly believe that to be successful you need to pay attention to details and so I am joining a team which is setting up to bring success to the little man. I have committed myself financially and know that I have to play my part by writing good content which will be used to promote the teams lead capture pages. Make no mistake this is going to be a team effort and we will be paying attention to detail to ensure success for ourselves and all who follow our lead. We have a winning system and the mentoring to take anyone to the top. watch out for details coming soon.

Marketing Your Business

Marketing your Business
Systems

One important aspect of any successfully business is having a system or systems that can be followed, if you look for example at MacDonalds, when you start a Franchise business, everything is laid out for you, your logo's, look and feel of your outlet, your menus, your stock, advertising, accounting. All you have to is follow the system and within a few year you will be in profit. Online businesses usually have systems as well, with a sponsor providing guidance, because they usually get some form of commissions from introducing you. The problem is all to many sponsors do not take the time to learn the business systems, so they can help others, they are only interested in getting signup's. If the business systems are not good this will often result in new recruits dropping out.

Before you market a business online you need to have a good knowledge of what it is you are selling and how it works, that why successful companies run training webinars. I continue to go to webinars and present my own, as there are always changes going on in the marketing world, and you need to be continuously informed.

One of the challenges at the moment is a worldwide shortage of money and lack of job security, so many people are seeking ways to earn an income online, and they need to get a quick return on any investment they make. Now there are systems for doing this , but many of them can be high risk, so you need to take care and check out the underlying systems.

The ideal business should be like a Franchise, a system that works, but that can produce a profit in a matter of weeks rather than years, so let me know when you find one.

Marketing your Business

Marketing your Business
Advertising

Yesterday I attended a webinar from T. Harv Eker, about the changing face of business as it seems that you need to choose carefully what you do, and aim to make money in five years and then sell and move on. This is a completely new mindset for me as I have looked to taking up to 3 years to make a profit, whereas the trend now is to return a profit within the first year.

One important aspect is the need to fully understand the business and opportunity you are going to promote and advertise, you can no longer rely on copy and pasting company provided sales pages to do your online selling you have to write your own advertising copy.

Many people do not know where to start, if you ask them to write about their business, so I generally recommend they start by writing about themselves and why they became involved with the business they are promoting. Having introduced themselves with one or two posts, they then need to start writing about the products and services they are providing.

One way to do this is to take the stock sales page and then rewrite it taking out the hype and buy now pitches and just supply one link in the signature area. As knowledge of their business grows they can expand into other areas, like providing answers to some common questions or features of their products.

You need to put yourself in the place of a potential customer what kind of questions do they have, what goes into products, what are the main features of your service, how does using the product or service benefit your customers.

Marketing your Business
Advertising

I continue to be amazed that people join opportunities, social groups, websites etc and then do nothing. I even wonder why most of them even bother to fill in the forms to sign up.

Perhaps one of the reasons is that some sites do not provide enough information about their product or service until they have captured your details, so that you can be added to an autoresponder which will pummel you into submission until you either take action or unsubscribe yourself.

One of my main businesses is the provision of a suite of marketing tools that costs $54.95 per month which includes everything you need to successfully market your business on the Internet, however people still sign up and do nothing, despite the fact that I include step my step instructions ,both in written and short video clips on what they need to do. Whenever there is a system update, it is added to the instructions.

The latest addition to the tools is a collection of blogging templates called VerePress, which can collate information from friends in Veretekk and other social groups such as Twitter and Facebook and Youtube. You can fully customise the look and feel from your back office in Veretekk hosting, to meet your needs in marketing your business. I just wonder how many people will make the effort to subscribe and use it.

Without marketing you will not make sales, and even with the best marketing system in the world you will not succeed unless you use it. Yes there is a lot of automation which can help you spread the word about your business, but you still need to write or get someone else to write your advertising copy, before the automation can be switched on.

I always recommend taking time to learn the basics including learning how tools work so that you can then uses them to market your business. You see, with a home based business model, I get to choose my pay, when I get a raise and how hard I would like to work. When building a business in the beginning, it is extremely important to work as hard as you can with "productive work" as opposed to "busy work".

Marketing your Business
Creative Writing

I do not know what it is about Internet marketing but the same questions are repeated time and time again in various forums about items such as back linking and no matter what answers are given, the question is raised again and again.

I have come to the conclusion that very few people are interested in the answers, perhaps they post to the forums to get backlinks.

When someone asks me for help in marketing their business I usually start with a test project. I discuss with them how they are marketing, what kind of keywords they are targeting and then show them two tools which I use every day a classified site and a simple web page builder. I then ask them to create 1,000 classified ads and 500 single webpages to promote their business

The creative writing project needs to be completed for the following reasons.

  • To learn how to build backlinks
  • To learn creative writing for the Internet techniques
  • To prove to me they can follow instructions and are prepared to put in the time and effort to market their business
  • to get into the habit of being able to write blog posts on a regular basis.

Some people are gifted and able to write thousands of words on a subject, but most can't. I for one like normally like to write as few words as possible, but this approach does not work when you are writing for the Internet. Few people will read your beautiful crafted classified ad, so do not try selling or use pictures, what you need to do is provide information in answer to what people are searching for. Now search engine spiders are avid readers and will follow all your links seeking more information, the better the quality of the content, the more often they will return and the higher your site will rank.

One method I use is to precis an article or document, rewriting it in my own words, some people use spinning software to rewrite information but I prefer to avoid this as you tend not to read the article so you are not learning yourself. As time passes you will often discover that a news or article headline will be just the thing that will spark your creative writing for your next blog.

Top SEO Results Tips
Marketing your Business

Many people starting a new business online are at a loss as to what to do to get their new site selling xyz widgets to the top of Google and other search engine. One of the most common ways is to use pay per click(PPC), however this can soon ramp up costs especially on a competitive area.

Now we know that providing good content is one of the keys and backlinks is another, so we need to meld these two area together in order to maximise our results. Hopefully before you started to build your website you did some comprehensive research about xyz widgets and have a list of keywords that you are going to use for marketing your business

The best kind of back link to build is one that comes from a site with a low Alexa ranking or high page rank, which also contains information about the keyword in your link. Of course the keyword must have content on your own page.

The strategy I use and advise others to use is to place a thousand classified ads and build five hundred one page websites linking into the site I wish to promote, now this might sound like a big task, but by the end of it you will have built a solid foundation for your business and also improved your keyword writing skills.

You can also build back links by putting a signature block on any blogs you post, so that when you share them on social sites more links will be built, by what I call silent marketing of your business

Today I am going to explain about some new features of the V2 marketing system which you will find quite useful for marketing your business. the first one is an internal messaging system which you can use to keep in contact with your friends or with any of the social or business groups that you belong to.

One of the main problems that face many people is keeping in touch with their contacts, yes you can use email, but it might not always get through. I have used Skype for many years, as its instant, however as your organisation grows it can become a distraction, with alerts of new messages interrupting what you are doing.

Veretekk messaging provides a great solution you can send a message to friends or groups on veretekk, and they appear under the message section of your dashboard. At then same time an email will also be sent out to recipients, also with a link back to the site or group. This belt and braces system ensure your message get through.

The second feature is a video upload area, now video is a great enhancement for marketing your business, not only can you share your favourite Youtube videos but you can make and upload your own. The video section of of your dashboard and profile allows you to select and display a variety of videos with diverse sections on marketing, just for fun, opinion, politic, training and instruction and software demonstration. its a great place to share and learn.

Always remember when making friends with fellow veretekk members you are enhancing and building backlinks to your blog, as one of my friends say:

Network marketing is a wonderful idea for entrepreneurs to think about when starting or looking at a particular business model. The benefits of network marketing gives people the ability to start a business from the ground up with very little overhead or investment on their part without the need to hold inventory. This of course means that there is no need to carry or ship products to customers. Network marketing allows the customers of a particular company the opportunity to become distributors who spread the word about the company's products creating the perfect model for any home based business.

Marketing Your Business

Productive work is what will make you money for the long term. Busy work is a waste if time which has no guarantee. Of course in the long term, that so called Òbusy workÓ might pay off; yet, in the start of building a business from home it is crucial to use the phone and talk to real people and have actual conversations to build rapport and trust. This is the key to building a successful home based business.

Life in the philippines

Life in the Philippines
Tropical storms

Once again this week a tropical storm has been hanging around the Philippines, with the result that there tends to be heavy rain in the evenings, just when I settle down to catch up on the latest news on TV.

The satellite systems sold here have far to small a dish to receive a good signal when it rains and it is something that the providers need to address, it also effects cable suppliers in the provinces as well as virtually all content is bounced of satellite at some point apart from local channels.
I have subscribed to Expat TV which allow me to watch programs from the UK on my computer and I starting to think that I might ditch my satellite, as the Internet is not effected by the weather, unless of course the power or phone lines are damaged by falling trees.

Last week I had a meeting with the local electricity supplier and they agreed to take up my complaint about how they calculated my deposit with their Board. A number of other items were discussed, including their website which is still under construction, as they have a vacancy. I made a suggestion that is they removed links from the site to pages which were not complete, visitors would have a better browsing experience.

For some time now I have been searching for ways for people to be able to improve life in the Philippines, and yesterday when out for a visit to the beach we stopped off at a restaurant in Dapitan city, where a business presentation was being held. As we finished our lunch, I asked for an information pack, as it maybe something that I could build as a local source of income.

How Too Productively Work your Home Business

There are different methods and strategies which people use when building a home based business. Some use email marketing as their primary method while other people spend time writing articles much like this one. These two methods set out for long term results and are not as productive as using the phone, holding small business conferences (on or offline), or introducing a person face to face about your products or services.

Marketing your Business

When you have a business which you want to market online, it is naturally assumed that either you have in depth knowledge of your business, or you are delegating this task to an advertising department or agency.

I talk to many people during the course of a week and it never ceases to amaze me, the number of them, who have little knowledge of the products they are selling. One conversation that often springs to mind was speaking with a gentleman, who signed up to use one of my marketing tools and I asked him how his business was doing and he replied that he had been working online for about a year but was having trouble getting traffic and had made no sales. I discovered he was selling Quickbank products, on delving a little deeper it turned it turned out that one of the products was a traffic generator which seemed somewhat ironic. I asked him if he used any of the products himself and he said an emphatic NO.

One basic point about marketing your business online or offline is you must know your product. Relying on the content and samples provided in sales literature, which hundreds if not thousands of other people use is just is not good enough. When marketing your business, You need to be able to provide your unique insight, which is why some people are more successful than others.

Far too many people think that to earn money online all they have to do is post a few adverts directing people to an affiliate page and the money will come rolling in, if this was so we would all be millionaires. The way you earn money on or offline follows the same formulae Time + Effort = Money or to put it another way you earn money from the time and effort you put into your business. A traditional business needs start up capital as it is very difficult to run a business if you have no seed capital to get you going.

The cost of setting up an Internet business is much lower, but it is not free despite the many free offers you may see, to make money you need to invest money and put in time and effort to earn more.

The basic advice I gave to this Gentleman was that to to go back to the drawing board and find a product or service that interested him, or he had knowledge about, research this niche for money earning product and keywords for marketing his business and then build a blog to include a lead capture box and to provide updated information about his niche on a weekly basis with links to his business sales page.

Marketing Your Business

Top SEO Results Tips
Marketing your Business

Some time ago I researched information about Dipolog City and found sites for both the region Zanorte and the City itself, however the information on the sites had not been kept up to date and one site was missing altogether, perhaps it is been revised. How can a city attract visitors and investment when information is not up to date. One glaring example was the electrical supply situation where no mention was made about the fact of a major upgrade that is at present underway. I gleaned this information from a private site that suggests it supplies news on a daily basis but was last updated in October.

I have today revisited my research and the site that was missing is now up an running, operated by the tourist board, however it is does not have an English version of news which surprises me. I think the site is still under construction as many link do not work. The Local electricity supplier site is still also incomplete but is slowly being updated, hopefully this work will be completed soon, as it could be a good source of information as to when planned maintenance is being undertaken.

When you are marketing a business online it is vital that your website is kept up to date and the same goes for public information sites otherwise your visitors will disappear.

Commercial sites must have a constant supply of fresh information, for example details of special offers, prices changes, sales or even changes in personnel and management. An easy way of supplying this information is to write a daily blog and then connect the feed the the index page of your blog, this will ensure visitors including search engine robots will keep coming back for more.

Until the next time

Original Article @ Veretekk Internet Marketing Business

Marketing Tools

What kind of marketing tools do you need to market your business. One of the most important is an autoresponder, because email is one of the easiest ways of getting your message across to your potential customers. In its simplest form it will send out an automatic reply to mail received by a particular email address, such rudimentary autoresponder are included in hosting packages and with free email systems such as gmail ( by using the vacation feature). Many reverse marketers use there simple systems to promote there business to everyone that send them mail.

One of the most popular autoresponders is Aweber but it can also become an expensive investment as your client list grows yes you can start for $1, but the normal fee is $19 a month with a limit on 500 subscribers, rising to $49 for 5,000 and $69 for 10,000 subscriber.

Constant contact fees schedule start of as free but then charges $15 a month for 500, $50 for 5,000 and $75 for 10,000 subscribers.

Increasing costs however is not the only problem, both of the above systems expose your email address, to the possibly of being shut down for spam complaints, even if you are not sending spam and your ISP will shut you down

so what is the solution, well Veremail is a POP email system. Your Veretekk username is your email address with all our domains (40 of them at this writing) as the root domain for your username. I.E.: david-ogden@veretekk.com , david-ogden@blastomatic.com , david-ogden@vereconference.com, david-ogden@webcatch.net, you get the idea right? So unlike all the other Autoresponder / email publication services (Aweber, Getresponse, Constant Contact, Email Aces, and 123response and a lot more to many to list) none offer a POP mail account to go with your system. You have to wonder why.

Email systems that incorporate list building, subscription forms that incorporate mass mailing and sequential mailings (autoresponders) often get many spam complaints. Please pay attention, as this lesson is very valuable.

The spam complaints follow to the senders return email address. Your email address. If you are using a Gmail, Hotmail, Yahoo, etc. you will loose that email address. If you are using AOL, Comcast, Road Runner, TCT, or any other email address associated with your ISP you will get your ISP account terminated.

At Veretekk your email address is selected from one of our domains and runs from our servers. If we get a complaint, we have the resources and proof that your email is a verified opted in email and the spam complaint is not legitimate.

Your Veremail system is fully integrated with a host of other tools, including blogging, social connections conference rooms, work groups and marketing portals for an all in cost of $54.95, no matter how large your mailing lists are.
