    Advertising Splash/Squeeze Pages vs. Websites
    When you start out a home based business it’s a common mistake to start off advertising your website. If you have a website with lots of things for sale on it you'll probably just end up confusing your potential customer. They may or may not be able to determine what it is that's for sale. Here are a few reasons why it’s better to advertise a Splash Page/Squeeze Page vs. a Website.1. If you’re using Google Adwords to drive people to your site then you'll want to get sales for your advertising dollar. If you’re paying for people to come to

    The headline is the most important element in any sales message your company ever uses. It is the opening sentence you use in any sales letter, brochure, print ad, or on you Web site.

    The purpose of a headline is to grab your prospect’s attention. Your headline should zero in on precisely who you want to reach, your target market. For example, if you want to reach homeowners, put the word “homeowners” in the headline.

    The headline should serve as the ad for your ad. It should tell the reader immediately and clearly the essence of what you’re trying to say in the body copy. The headline needs to tell people what your big benefit or promise is. Your headline should appeal to the reader or listener’s self-interest.

    The two most powerful words you can use in a headline are “free” and “new.” You cannot always use “free”, but you can always use “new”, if you try hard enough. Some other powerful words to put in your headlines are: “last chance”, “revolutionary”, “just arrived”, “easy”, “announcing”, “bargain”, “compare”, “how to”, ‘last chance”, “offer.”

    A good headline explains how the reader, viewer or listener can save, gain, or accomplish something beneficial through the use of your product or service. How your product or service will increase his or her financial, social, or physical well-being. Or, if you’re taking the negative track, how your product or service will decrease the prospect or customer’s chances of personal, business, or financial loss.

    CCTV Security Camera Systems
    One camera does not a system make is the rule of thumb to remember when you consider what type of security camera system you need. A recent technological breakthrough that has been applied to home security systems is the CCTV system, or Closed Circuit Television system.CCTV camera security systems were initially developed to monitor commercial properties and public places, but have been adapted to home security systems in recent years. These days, it’s more prevalent than any other type of security system that might function without a TV. The difference bein

    Business Brokers and Valuations, a Comment
    Business Brokers often double as business appraisers. I see a real problem with business brokers and their valuations teams it seems like a huge conflict of interest to me. Many times the business broker sales person is also a licensed business evaluator. But the job should be done by a CPA or a non-involved “Certified Business Appraiser” and not the same Business Broker making the listing for the sale of that business.See: http://www.cpa2biz.comOther books on this subject I found relevant are:“A CPAs Guide to Valuing a Closely Held Business”

    De-Mystifying the Medical Billing Maze
    Medical billing can follow a very complex and strange process. For those who don’t or haven’t actually worked as doctors, or for insurance companies, the procedures can be quite opaque, but fundamentally it is quite simple.When a patient goes to a medical provider for surgery or to be put on medication, or simply to diagnose conditions the patient has been experiencing, there are certain costs for each service the medical practitioner provides to the patient. The provider records these costs in a form, usually a HCFA, or “hic-fuh,” which can be either electr

    Combine Your Yellow Page Ad and Web Site for Maximum Profits
    Combine Your Yellow Page Ad and Web Site for Maximum Profits Dr. Lynella Grant A Yellow Page Ad isn't Enough Any More An unquestioned "must" for any small business has been to run an ad in the Yellow Page Directory. Since most customers were local, that was enough to establish itself as "open for business." The annual Yellow Page ad represents the largest promotional expense for many enterprises. Yet, Yellow Page directory use is declining, while expanding segments of the public don't rely on them at all. Yellow Page advertising costs keep going up, and the complic

    It is important to remember, that when you’re writing a headline, your prospect is not buying a product or a service. Your prospect is buying the result or benefit that your product or service will provide to him or her. Always focus headlines on the benefit or result that your prospect will be receiving.

    A headline is most effective when you speak directly to the reader, one reader at a time. Your message must telegraph the benefits the prospect himself or herself can expect to receive. Your headline should never talk about “we” or “our.” Your headline must be written or expressed with “you”, the individual reader’s direct interests in mind.

    Here are few time-tested ideas for creating great headlines:

    * Feature a price in your headline.

    * Tell a story.

    * Feature a free offer.

    * Feature a price reduction or a reduced price

    * Feature easy or more attractive payment terms.

    To find the headline that has the strongest pulling power, you must test them. When you run a display ad, test your headlines against each other with the exact same body copy. You can check your results by using a differently coded coupon for each version of your ad. You can also, tell the prospects in your ad to specify a department number when they call or write. Or, you can ask the prospect where he or she saw or heard about your offe
