Marketability, How to Become Good at It

January 11, 2012

Ever since the passing of the model T, the automotive industry has sold cars regarding everything other than fiction-the power, sex appeal, luxury (where would we be without "rich, Corinthian velour"), economy, and on and on. Automotive advertising, in fact, has historically been so persuasive that has not only shaped perceptions but created them.

The industry l am involved with and know most about, what l enjoy and do for a living write, teach, train sales staff to be the best they can be. I deal with owners, not always agree with them but at times l have too, rather sad if l don't.

Here are the areas you need to understand and become the best you can be at them, if you learn this then you can apply it to any industry you're involved with.

Know your product, Believe in Your Product and Sell with Enthusiasm.

These are the fundamental selling truths. If you don't know your product, people will resent your efforts to sell it; if you don't believe in it, no amount of personality and technique will cover that fact; if you can't sell with enthusiasm, the lack of it will be infectious.

Two Reason I Wouldn't Buy from Me.

Part of knowing your product is knowing all the reasons someone might want to buy it.

Beating Dead Horse meat.

Sometimes an idea, product, concept is just plain wrong.

The 80/20 Rule.

Focus on the interest, predilections, and tastes of your top 20 percent, and take the time to figure out what you can do to keep them there.

Know the Company.

Two key points are knowing, your customer's company. First, that knowledge can tell you something about the best overall approach. Secon, though the person you are selling to may have total authority and autonomy.

If You Don't know, Ask.

Most sales are not cold calls. There is some contact or connection which gets you thinking about a particular company in the first place.

Don't Be Misled by Titles.

Assume almost nothing from titles l used to think, for example that the head of General Motors International would be an important decision maker regarding GM's overseas operation. To my surprise, he had no decision-making authority, except in the broadest sense.

Apply these steps and watch how you become better at the way you Market your Product. Learn them and you will see results before your very own eyes. Marketing is all about one thing getting a bang for the dollar you have invested in advertising. If you're not making the phone ring, then you know your dollar has been wasted or invested incorrectly.
All the Best,

How to Rank Your Site on Top with Search Engine Results

January 5, 2012

Webmasters always want their website to appear on top of Search Engine Results. However, it is not as easy as it seems. Getting ahead of your competitors and achieving high ranks in Google, Yahoo or MSN required a lot of work. It is well-known fact that top positions in search engines result in a lot of organic traffic and return more revenues. Therefore, website owners are always ready to do everything to attain their desire Ranks.

To achieve top levels in all the main search engines, you need to understand the search and indexing mechanism of all popular search engines. Always remember, that there are no defined criteria to make your website on top of any search engines. You need to follow the basic guidelines set by them for a search engine friendly website. However, search engines experts suggest several tricks and tweaks that may help you in easy indexing of your site by search engine robots/crawlers.

The contents of your websites, META tags (Description and Keywords appearing on all pages), inbound links (links appearing on other sites but pointing to your site), and alternate text given on your images play a significant role in natural indexing of your site. You can expect better ranks only if your website is equipped with all the above-described things.

One more thing that is imperative for your site’s performance in search engines is the selection of right keywords and contents based on those keywords. Remember, if you are not targeting proper keywords, you may not get desired results. Therefore, to fix this issue, you need to do a proper analysis of your business domain and niche market along with keywords research before making any plans for online promotion of your website.

Usually, search engine tracks your site through two conventional mechanisms:

Links based tracking:
The success of your site in top rankings is determined by the number of links point to your site. If your site has lots of incoming links from another top-rated website in your niche, the possibility of success is more. Search Engine Submission, Affiliate Marketing, Directory Submission, Article Submission, Press Releases Distribution, and Blogs help a lot in achieving such quality inbound links.

Contents based tracking:
It's relatively a complex mechanism for tracking your website. It depends upon the relevance of META tags (keywords and description) with the contents of different web pages in your site. The freshness of contents on your website enhances your chances of getting indexed easily.

Apart from these two conventional mechanisms, you can also adopt other modes of online advertising like banner ad placements, paid submission, contextual advertising and social media marketing. These strategies are of great help if you want an effective interaction with your potential customers.

Tips on How You can Increase Success with You're Blog Today

January 5, 2012

Blog marketing is not all that hard if you know what you are doing. However, if this is your very first blog and you are wondering how to get readers to it, then you are in the right place. First let me just say that marketing your blog is going to require patience, and being consistent. You will have to update your blog frequently if you want to keep readers coming back for more. We are all guilty of making a blog, wanting it to be great, putting only one entry into it and then never going back to update it again. I think everyone in the cyber world has done this at one time or another. Here are some great tips to use when trying to get your blog out there and get new readers.

Make sure that your blog has the track back feature. Let me tell you why. When you have the track back feature on your blog, you are allowing other people to link to your blog. Maybe someone has a post to post on their blog that is relevant to one of yours. They can use the talk back to your post, and send their readers to your blog so that they know what they are referring to. Another good thing to remember is that if someone gives you track back, it is a courtesy to return that to their blog if at all possible.

Having a Google account and submitting a site-map is almost a must when you are blog marketing. Doing so will allow Google to know how often you are updating your blog, and they will automatically know of any changes that you have made to it as well. Let Google get those new pages indexed faster and get them into search results much quicker than if you did not have the site-map. There is a certain way you have to do the site-map for Google, and they can explain that to you. Just know this is a significant step in blog marketing.

Exchanging links with authority blogs and websites that are in your same market is another great way to get the word out about your blog. The authority sites are going to have a higher page rank, and will also be listed high in Google search results. So do some searches and check those out and see if they are up to exchanging links. If they are not, you could always just add those to your blog roll. You do not need permission to do that if they are not into linking. However, in the world of blogs, most blog owners are thankful for all connections and are willing to return the favor.

You are going to want to be sure that all of your posts are formatted. Doing so will leave out any confusion for the search engines, and you will have everything nice and neat and all organized. The label tags are there for a reason when you are dealing with blogs. So using them and not leaving them out is a very good idea.

Tracking is another part of blog marketing that is so imperative. You want to be able to track your visitors and clickers to know where they are coming from. You want to be able to tell what keywords they searched on to find your blog and where they did their searching. Doing so will help take out all of the guess work when it comes to blog marketing. You will know what keywords are working, and which are not.

Allowing RSS feeds from your blog is also another great blog marketing tool. You are going to find that when you allow RSS feeds, your blog is going to end up all over the internet with a link back to it, and that is a real thing.  It's a wonderful way to get links to your blog with little or no effort. People that subscribe to your blog RSS feeds can then post your blog posts on their sites or blogs. Which in return gives you a link to their site or page that they have you on.

Blog Marketing is only as hard as you make it. Use these tips and get your blog out there and seen today!

December 24, 2011

Why Do We Age?

The fountain of youth - such metaphorical piece of the myth that alludes to immortality has been used over and over again on different forms of literature both in the past and in the present. Often the fountain of youth's classification as myth is challenged from time to time with some expeditions or travels that claim to have finally found the fountain's location. Nonetheless, this recurring symbol of eternal youth in most forms of literature and art verifies man's innate affinity with immortality.

In our contemporary setting, this longing for immortality is almost within mankind's grasp with the promise of better technologies and sciences shortly. However, to completely grasp and understand the means of acquiring eternal life or a very long life span in the very least, one must first see the process behind our aging. This question kept many brilliant scientists hell-bent on searching for clues and theories that may answer such relentless query.

Through the course of these scientific explorations in the realm of human aging scientists were able to come up with a term that refers to the human aging process - senescence. This term relates to a degeneration implication that manifests itself as people get old. Senescence is believed to be the result of a biochemical deregulation that is a natural component of life.

However, the effects of senescence vary among different species. Take for example a bat and a rodent, both of them are classified as mammals, and both are of the same size, but a bat generally lives longer than a rodent for the former can live up to 30 years while the latter usually have a lifespan of only two to three years. However, some animal species such as rockfish  turtles, and lobsters display a particular trait known as the negligible senescence. This characteristic enables these unique animal species to live through a longer period compared to other species. Some of these species can even live for an unbelievable span of 200 years.

Findings from extensive studies that were carried out by various scientists imply that this peculiar trait is a result of evolutionary and genetic factors that rule over these animals' life longevity. However, scientists still find it hard to assimilate this kind of trait to humans and the reason behind it is fairly straightforward: we humans live in an entirely different environment compared to those animals that possess the negligible senescence trait.

The best that we humans can do for now is first to determine the various factors that fuel the process of aging and to address these factors accordingly. One of the most obvious reasons or factors behind aging is stress. In a nutshell, the dynamics of stress only say that constant beatings and punishments that our bodies take from everyday tasks lead to hormone disturbance which can ultimately result in cell damage.

Furthermore, the degeneration of the hypothalamus, a gland that resides in your head, is also one of the determining factors of aging  The hypothalamus is solely responsible for setting the "traffic" of various hormones to other glands. Through the course of time, the hypothalamus becomes weary and tends to be inaccurate in releasing proper amounts of hormone to other organs in the human body.  It Leads to imbalanced hormone levels which cause damage to tissues.

External factors brought about by the environment are also some of the very viable reasons behind the aging process. Environmental harms such as pollution, radiation, contaminants coupled with self-induced stress, and poor nutrition inflict damage on human cells. Significant damage is instantly inflicted on these cells once they are exposed to such harmful external factors. Cells play a very substantial role in the process of aging because they contain valuable information for the human body's development. Whenever a cell reproduces or divides itself, it makes sure that the new cell is on the same level with the previous cell that it originated from. If that last cell received any slightest form of damaged from the previously mentioned factors, it would then spawn new cells that possess slightly deformed information sets. Then starts a trend of degenerated cells which leads to what is commonly known as the aging process.

Among these scientific theories that deal with the course of aging the Free Radical Theory tends to be the most popular among contemporary American health buffs. This theory suggests that extremely reactive chemicals, which the term free radicals refer to, are responsible for inflicting damage to the human body's tissues. In general, however, these free radicals are not altogether wrong for the human body for they also serve numerous purposes for the organ's development. But what is damaging to the human body, especially to the tissues, is the free radicals' ability to reproduce itself in excessive amounts. Free radicals are endowed with an extra electron which makes them more capable of stealing electrons from other molecules which they tend to do frequently. This act subsequently leads to a very dangerous cycle that can burn out the cells from constantly repairing damaged molecules.

With these various theories that try to decipher the process of aging certain medical solutions are also devised to combat the inevitable aging ritual. The most frequent among these medical solutions are taking vitamin C and vitamin E supplements to combat stress and to balance out the damage induced by free radicals in the body. Another useful method is to lessen your average intake of junk foods and to substitute it with healthier food choices such as fruits and vegetables.

One means to combat the toll of aging today is through the consumption of high-quality GenF20™ HGH or Human Growth Hormone precursors. The GenF20™ HGH supplement can help to increase energy levels that can make you a lot more productive by enabling you to perform more tasks efficiently. This supplement can also help to lower cholesterol plus help to improve brain, vision, and immune function.

These are only some of the capabilities of the GenF20™ HGH supplement in controlling the aging process. Nonetheless, the GenF20™supplement is, by far, the most advanced dietary supplement that can help with the course of ageing  These advances that were made in the light of combating factors that lead to premature ageing  can honestly give reaffirmation in believing that the fountain of youth that every man longs for is truly within reach.

Why l decided to review this business. The training is solid, what motivated me to write the article on creating a niche market, read it if you get a chance.

With that said NOW, you have a company who has the highest standards with what they promote and sell. I will leave you with this statement from the SellHealth.

It is this dedication to your success that positioned SellHealth (Formerly LeadingEdgeCash.com) as the world's # 1 sexual health and anti-aging affiliate network since 2003

Creating a Niche Affiliated Market That works!

December 10, 2011

I have been doing a lot of research on this topic, why it works and what effect it will have on your results for your efforts. The whole mission you should have in mind is making money with your products. The biggest mistake most of us all are making we promote way too many programs and have zero focus on any of them. I said most of us, not all of us. The fair statement, would you not agree, we all do it. Why most of all never make any money with affiliate programs.

So understanding what l have just used as a topic l would like to proceed to a more intelligent and efficient way of marketing our products in cyberspace. Big world out there not many postings, article, blogs, and websites get the attention they require to become money making sites. So what can we do to increase our potential for making a living with advertising on the internet? There are many factors we can do immediately to enhance our chances of this becoming a reality.

The most important step you as a marketer can do to choose 2 or 3 programs in a niche market, what is a niche market; it is a market that is entirely interested in what you are promoting. This market you have target have a credit card beside them ready to buy the products you are promoting, wow is this true, absolutely happens every second of the day somewhere on the internet. So how do we get and find these people with credit card beside them, we need to target this type of audience. By select the correct keywords, key phrase and understand who will be viewing your efforts.

Now you need to know who will use your products, what words are they using to search for your products they have an interest. Our job now is to focus on our products and understand what benefits it will have for the buyer. You need to play with different keywords and phrase and until you know your clicks and your ratio of conversions. It may take weeks before you finally found the correct combination of words that lead you to this audience, just like musician takes the time to find the right beats to make his or her song stand out to its audience. Once you have found the key phrases and words, you have now opened a new door of opportunity.

Understand this concept will certainly provide you with a dangerous combination of keywords your buyers are using to found you in cyberspace, is that not like music to your bank account. The most efficient way you can become magnificent with affiliated programs, stick to relate content that you believe in promoting and support to you niche market. It's not an accident it takes hard work to become successful her on the internet. I will provide you with some relevant articles that will help you understand this concept more effectively.

Who Is Shayne Stevenson Anyways?

December 7, 2011

As a young boy growing up in Canada, l can still remember watching Hockey Night in Canada every Saturday night.  Like most other children, l wanted to one day play for Toronto Maple Leafs.  At the age of nineteen, my dream became a reality. I had to be the luckiest kid in the world, or I thought at the time.

My hockey background went as follows; London Knights in the Ontario Hockey League draft.  Drafted in the first round, seventeenth overall to the Boston Bruins organization, at the NHL draft. To my surprise, l suddenly became a member of the Tampa Bay Lightning organization, when they used one of their draft picks to select me as their ninth forward in the 1993 expansion draft.

As you can see already from reading my resume, I was chosen in the first round of every possible hockey draft in North America.  Not bad for a kid who grew up in a small town of Aurora, Ontario at the time with a population of 10,000 people playing single “A” hockey.  Even after being a first-round draft choice and playing in the NHL.  I can honestly say, l didn’t make enough money to retire when l was finished playing professional hockey.

As a family, ask yourself this question: How could a first-round draft choice of the NHL not make enough money to retire on?  I can only say one thing is looking back now on my professional hockey career.  If the only l knew the business sides of professional hockey like l know it now, l would be worth close to $20 million dollars today. I want you as a parent, player to always keep this in mind at all times when reading this hockey manual that l personally wrote, so players and relatives have a concept of what they will face and all of the decision you will need to make. This manual is published and has been sold to me at many cold and lonely hockey arenas but the ones who did buy my manual had a much brighter direction on what to expect from all the different angles of professional hockey; Lawyers, General Managers, Coaches, and  Agents.  One of the biggest decisions you will ever have to make is who you pick as your son's agent.  The agent will have one aggressive goal, and that is to get as much money out of your child’s pocket. Real but also sorrowful, happens all the time at this level of the business side of professional hockey and all other sports.

I wrote this manual with the desire that l could prevent many players from making the mistakes l made as a Professional Hockey Player, as a player our careers are short due to injuries, politics and many other reasons that happen on a daily base in all professional sports.  So as l player you need to be able to avoid the mistakes l made, review my track record of draft picks.  No matter how high you go in the draft, you still need to know what l did not know as a player.

More information on the manual itself on how you will be able to own your copy, the manual is written has been sold at many local arenas and now, we will be publishing it on the internet within the next few weeks.  Why because this blog is new, still under construction and most of all, we want to provide you with logical information that will enhance your knowledge of the hockey business side at all different levels.

Using A Newsletter Can Be a Powerful Tool, For Your Business

December 3, 2011

We as business owners forget about the clients we already have in our database. One of the most powerful tools you can use with your already existing clients is sending out a Newsletter on the monthly basis. An excellent way of creating and developing a personal relationship with your customers. Even if it seems like a one-way relationship, it works.

A newsletter allows you to have a private discussion with your client that is personal and informative. It has proven to have the same effect as you dropping by your clients office and talking to them face to face. The only difference here is that your client can't talk back to you, but that is okay. They have now perceive that you are taking time out of your very busy schedule to be with them. I will tell you this; it works, and you get immediate results.

So you need now to ask yourself, how often should l send out your newsletter? The most effective for me is monthly. Why so often? You more than likely know how quickly your clients forget all about you and your company. If this is not a reasonable time frame, then, at least, send it out quarterly. So you need to write these newsletters, if your not a good writer, then hire someone to do the writing for you.

If you have several different departments, within your company, get each manager of each department to share information that will have an impact and interest to the reader. Display your products, have the picture of your team, hold a monthly contest, provide interesting information to the user and you will have a customer for the rest of your life.

You can spend a few minutes each day developing information for your newsletter before you know it; you have enough original and refreshing information for your clients for that month. The most important key here is to have fun with this new form of advertising. Get your team involved with the newsletter and the rewards will be knocking on your door.

It's one of the most efficient ways of spending advertising dollars and being able to see immediate results from your clients. As you create and develop your newsletter, keep in mind to always try to found ways of improving what you already have. The best way to feel the efficient of your newsletter is by talking and listening, to what your clients have to say about each issue.

How do you do this, whenever you meet your clients, make it a habit to ask them directly their thoughts on the latest newsletter you sent. You can create a link on your newsletter to your website, where your readers can post a comment on your newsletter or run a contest for them to provide you with much-needed feedback.

All the Best,

Easy Fan-Page design

November 26, 2011
Long time marketer Justin Wheeler has just created a Wordpress plugin called Easy Fan-Page Design. This plugin allows you to create professional looking Facebook fan pages quickly and easily.


Creating fan-pages for fun or profit has never been easier.

Facebook is HUGE.. and it gets bigger on a daily basis. Vast and small businesses alike need an internet presence. It does not matter if you are a HUGE corporation or a small mom and pop shop... having a web presence allows people to connect with you quickly and easily.

Having both a website and a Facebook page is the BEST... but if you had to choose between the two, the Facebook page would be the better choice.

Small business would benefit greatly from having a Facebook page; they would be able to post daily specials, give directions and display hours of operation, are just a few things that come to mind.

Facebook fan-pages for schools, clubs, churches, etc. are all an excellent way to keep connected.

Once someone “Likes” a fan-page, every message, every link, every anything you post to your page shows up in your fans’ news streams so they—and all their friends—can see and click on it...so fan pages can quickly go viral!

When you have both a blog or website "AND" a Facebook page you can quickly post on the Facebook page about the new post you just put on your blog/website.. there we go with that viral thing again. Got to love how all this works together.

Now I don't want to get all tacky here, but I LOVE to talk about those Google Spiders... they love good original content.

If you were to post to your blog and then post that URL on your Facebook fan-page, those hungry Google spiders would crawl all over not just your blog but also all over your Facebook page. Are you getting the BIG picture here about how important it is to have a Facebook fan page?

Let me give you an example, My partner and I have a website, Tops in hCG Drops. We also have a Facebook fan page also about HCG liquid diet drops, they both work together.

Creating Facebook fan pages for yourself or others is a great way to put extra money in your pocket. Not only would you be able to build "Your Own Targeted List" but if you made fan pages for others, you would be able to charge them a fee to do so.

Most people think they don't have the time, or there would be too much to learn to create their Facebook fan page just don't tell them how easy it is to make GREAT looking Facebook fan pages when you use Easy Fan-Page Design.

Here is another pointer on how to earn money also do you know how to market/promote? Those same people who are too busy to make their Facebook fan pages are probably too busy to support it too. Offer to help them develop it for them for a fee and earn extra income from that as well.

Just another article all it is, nothing much

November 23, 2011

Just another article all it is, nothing much!!

What is “APSense” what will it do for you are some of the questions you have to understand, and honestly ask yourself? We are looking for leaders who have creative minds and understand the simple concept “Team Work” as in working as a team. Let’s be honest every “Social Media Business Site” promise features that no other site has! How many features can you produce that is different?

It's not a competitive edge is it, “NO” not at all. What is a competitive advantage is how you “Rank” this is an essential element in cyberspace, you get noticed. Not really a bad thing is it? APSense has this ability to piggyback your articles, marketing skills and making sure you also can be ranked highly if you follow our steps. The cost, knew you're were going to ask that! The cost is your dedication to APSense and making it your site that gets you your desired results. If this appeals to your marketing concept, then we are on the same page.

The reason l titled this article, Just another article all it is, nothing much!! I knew many would never understand the opportunity they have here at “APSense” the bang you get for your efforts and investment, if you decide to take advantage of some of the very smart marketing ways of getting you noticed in front of your niche market, is vital. We have that ability; if you provide the right keywords, key phrases when you submit your articles, ads and all you do here at "APSense. We have designed branding tags that are generic to your market.

If we all had a mutual goal in mind, to understanding that success is not a given unless you win the “Lottery” we know the real meaning that it takes effort, dedication and direction that is obtainable within our abilities. We can only do what we understand and have the potential to create it, and then promote it in a “Professional Manner." The key to taking control of our financial rewards marketing on the internet.

The secret is in the mirror, why do l say this, my dad told me this once. You want to see the problem, go to the bathroom, but l don’t need to go l said. He looked at me and told me you're missing my point; you will see the problem in the mirror. Yep, he was right; it was me and my outlook on life and attitude. Never forgot that day, learned a lot from him.

Learn what we have here and the rest is to person you will see each and every day you see that person in the mirror. Then one day you will see wow, this article helped me see the light. Then you are on your way to success and what it is success means to you. Only you know why you’re doing it. All the matters

A Very Old Story-But With a Moral We Can Use

November 22, 2011
I'd like to suggest we all take the time to read an old story titled "The Emperor's New Clothes."
I think we all remember this one. The Emperor commissioned an outfit from a group of scammers. These scammers would pretend to sew on this beautiful set of clothes whenever the emperor was around. They convinced him it was the most beautiful outfit in existence.

He decided to wear these beautiful clothes while parading through the streets of his kingdom. The adults of course not wanting to offend him or thinking that perhaps the clothes were so regal that they couldn't see them, oohed and oohed over the emperor's outfit until finally a small boy who did not know any better stated the obvious. He just said, "The emperor is naked". That one statement made everyone face reality.

All too often, we see the same thing in internet marketing. Many people are buying "the emperor's clothes". We see people jumping into these opportunities only to find out that what they thought they were getting was only in their imagination.

We see people jumping on this new e-book or that new marketing plan and when you take away the hype and get down to bare bones, what do you have? It's time someone said "The emperor is naked" so people can face reality and stop joining in the fantasy.

All the Best,

Well November is here and October is done!

November 4, 2011
A new month and new goals for all of us to achieve, we all have ambition and determination to achieve our financial goals in life. I have read many books, but one always stands out for me, written by Napoleon Hill, in his book “Think and Grow Rich” he speaks about the mastermind plan. The mastermind plan is about duplication and getting results done. Having a group of minds developing and sharing concepts, ideas and making them all grow without boundaries.


Without boundaries, what key phrases to have! The opportunity to achieve what the minds have created and the ability to take action on your new found opportunities. We all have this ability, but to accurately, efficiently and have the determination to achieve your dreams is a step most of us never achieve. Why is that? We all get distracted by our mind, thoughts, personal surroundings, obstacles in your life has an effect on this creative thinking.

Working as a team, creates a very positive atmosphere, motivating one another to achieve the goals that were written to be performed and reap the rewards of success. The internet has become so competitive with so many unrealistically affiliated programs that promise you success without any work involved. No recruiting, no sponsoring, no need to get your family involved, etc., etc. We all have read countless, splash pages, landing pages that lead you to that promised land of milk and honey.

So what is my point for taking the time and writing this article if it has no direction, solution or meaningful information that will enhance your abilities and talents. The point is “Marketing is an Art,” how you rank, promote, showcase your first impression is the most important step you can achieve. Why l created the “APSense Blog TO support WRITERS WITH TALENT,” who share information that would help us all achieve success by helping one another out.

Everyday l read article after article, view sites, blogs, forums and most are just after one thing them self’s why many do not stick to the dream that was written. When you have support from a team of winners, you will always be reminded of how to get where you are going if you get off track. I will promote, your articles as l have always in the past, APSense is now Ranking 3,400, let’s get under 3,000 before Christmas. How do we do this, understanding how rankings are determined by the World Wild Web?

Creating Backlinks, leaving comments on blogs, following other blogs, understanding how the “Bounce Ratio” works within the spiders that crawl your site and provide you with a score. The bounce ratio, good and original content is an important bloodline in your success for page ranking, SERPs, and indexing your articles. I would like to post at least four articles a day on the APSense Blog from different members. Items that our readers, followers will benefit from reading and sharing our knowledge so we all can benefit from our efforts.

Thank you for taking the time in reading this article, if you got this far! Now all you need to do is applying what you learned and found useful from this article. Do your homework, not a get rich piece, just one that will make you a lot of money when you follow these steps.

But l have written many articles on this subject, review what l have writing on this topic, check the groups l created and you will understand one thing. I did it because if you become successful, then l got my prize l helped you become successful.

All the Best,
