    What's in Your Culture?
    What is the culture in your organization? When mistakes are made what is the first question asked? "Who's to blame?" or "What can we learn from this?"If the first question is "who is to blame," you may be creating a culture of fear and intimidation. The result of this culture is to stifle creativity and progressive thinking while fostering an environment where everyone plays the C.Y.A. (Cover Your A___) game.Failure to learn from mistakes results in crisis management because either no decisions are made out of fear of making a bad one, or bad decisions are repeated because no one kn
    Whether you are an experienced ezine/newsletter editor or a newbie trying to build a mailing list, there is one thing you all must strive for. That one thing is a professional looking end product.

    How many emails have you received that have so many spelling errors in them that you simply can't take them seriously and delete the email.

    How about the email that starts off Ok but you get to the third line and it runs on to the right, seemingly to infinity. BOOM...

    Delete It

    Even if you are care full about both of the above, you still have to watch out for the dreaded SPAM filters. Almost every email client has them and if you send an email with one of thier filtered words, BAM... there goes your email, right into the Bulk or Junk folder, never to be read by anyone. Even if they have subscribed to your list, unless they have whitelisted your "from" address you can still wind up in the junkpile.

    OK, you started out wanting to send a simple email to your list about a new offer and now it would seem that it will take over an hour just to be sure you don't look like an illiterate or have your email wind up in the junk folder.

    This is where your three best friends come to the rescue.

    They are Spellcheck, SpamCheck and Formatit

    I publish several newsletter and ezines, plus a few thousand mailing lists, (yes, I said a few thousand) and about 98% of my mailings get through to the recipients, have correct spelling and they are formatted to the readers email box.

    After I write anything I plan to send by email I use three simple, free online tools to insure this and it takes me no more than than five minutes.

    Here is how I accomplish this.

    I write my email or article, such as this one, in notepad and the first place I go is http://www.spellcheck.net/

    Once there, I copy and paste my entire email into their online spellchecker and I immediately get back a report not only showing me the misspelled words but offering suggestions for changes. Keep in mind that this program doesn't recognize certain words such as email, ezines, spam, etc. But as long as you know this and ignore these suggestions you will be OK.

    I make the required changes using their online tool and, voila!, my email has correct spelling and it only took a couple of minutes, faster once you get used to it. I can now copy this text back into my notepad and save the changes.

    Chicken Little And The Disintermediation Myth
    If Chicken Little were alive today he wouldn’t be running around forewarning us of the sky that was about to fall. He’d be too preoccupied alerting everyone about another potential disaster - which may in the end prove to be just as erroneous as his first prediction. Nevertheless, if the conversations around the office water coolers are any indication, he’d still get the attention of many nervous corporate omni-smarts. So what’s the new buzz? Disintermediation!If you haven’t heard the word already, you’re going to hear it ad nauseum.For those unfamiliar with the term; Disintermediation is a gr

    Online Writers, Online Articles and Click Thru Traffic Bondage Abuse
    Many Internet Entrepreneurs use informational articles to recruit traffic to their Internet Sites. This is becoming a very popular endeavor indeed. In fact it is growing like never before. Some watching this trend originally called it a fad and said it was peaking out and could not withstand the growth curve. Nevertheless time has shown it has and it is still growing too.Unfortunately, some folks are abusing this. You see at the bottom of each article they write, they have a by-line and on that by-line a link to their website. Yet once the reader clicks on it and goes to the website, they are blocked

    OK, I now have an email with correct spelling that should get through all but the most stringent filters. The next task is to format it to fit my readers email account.

    While every email client is different, almost any one of them should be able to read an email that is formatted to 58 characters per line, including spaces.

    That is where my Mailing List Manager seems to work best. So now I go to http://www.formatit.com/

    Basically the same procedure. I copy and paste my entire email copy into it and enter my desired column width. Click submit and there you have it. A professional quality email that is ready to promote my products.

    At the last minute, after proofreading this article, I decided to add one more item. That item is Proofreading.

    While I am a big fan of using swipe files for blurbs and bits of info and copying those into my work, I always carefully proofread the finished product.

    I have been seeing a lot of several common mistakes that I would like to warn you about.

    The most common is people using the word "loose" when they mean "lose" Example: "You won't loose money on this deal". While I try not to lose any money the only money I have that is loose is my loose change :-)

    The next would be the use of "aloud" when they mean "allowed". Example: "You aren't aloud to import any email addresses into this mailer". Hmmm.. Is it allowed if I do it quietly?

    Last, but not least, is the use of "coarse" instead of "course" Example: "Click here to get a Free Marketing Coarse". Sounds pretty rough and hairy to me.

    While there is much more to writing professional email copy, if you use these simple, free tools you will be well on your way to becoming a successful email marketer. I hope this information has been helpful to you.

    And I didn't even ask you to subscribe to my "Free Coarse"
