    Unscrupulous Business Practices
    We have all probably experienced mysterious charges appearing on billing statements. When you try to resolve the problem you begin to wonder what the word “prompt” actually means today. The wonderment continues when you try to extrapolate the meaning of the word absolute in reference to privacy policies and “YOUR” account. Confusion and haze encircle the brain’s ‘gray’ matter and things get murkier. When you try to shake it off, you learn that hackers are not only operating on the outside of business, but on the inside.Dealing with bogus charges is like being on a wagon train and having to create a circle when under attack by the locals.

    Single Mom Manifests Big Business
    THE CIRCUMSTANCES:Single mother of 2 small children finds herself at the end of her marriage. NO post secondary education, no employment history for 5 years. No financial support. One day she witnesses someone painting a window ad onto a retail window and because of her curious nature, she begins to ask several questions: How long does it take to build a display like that (4 large storefront windows)? 3 Hours How much do you get paid? $500.00 To her astonishment she discovered a hidden secret:A PERSON COULD GET PAID VERY WELL TO COLOR!!This is what she knew for sure:Almost every business had a window and almost e
    Yes, it can be done. Here are 7 ways that a site can acheive
    increased link popularity without having to exchange links:

    Directory Submissions - Submit to the Open Directory and other
    sites like JoeAnt and Gimpsy. These are all human reviewed
    directories, therefore search engines will consider that your
    site must be of pretty good quality to be listed in them. Submission
    to these sites is free, but there can be quite a wait to get
    reviewed, since editors are unpaid volunteers. In addition to
    a link popularity boost, a listing in Open Directory will get
    your site listed in the other Open Directory powered sites
    like Google's web Directory, AOL's web directory and many others.

    Tips For Directory Submissions:

    Editor Check - Is there an editor for your desired category?
    If not, consider applying. For Open Directory, this can
    give you the power to add your site much more quickly.

    Link Title - Don't try any tricks to get keywords in your title
    if they are not in your company name. This will get your listing
    edited if the listing is approved or rejected outright. The
    title must be your official website or company name.

    Description - Again, don't try to insert extra keywords here,
    it could backfire and your description will be edited or your
    listing rejected. The description should be short and concise.
    Just tell what your website offers and give some product or
    service examples if appropriate. Again, keep it short!

    Be patient! - It may take weeks or months to be reviewed. If
    you've submitted before and are still not listed, try writing
    a polite note to the editor of the category to see if there
    was a problem.

    Paid Submissions - Paid submissions to quality directories
    and portals is also a good idea. It is well known that a
    listing in the Yahoo directory area will give you a good
    Google PageRank boost. Listing in the Yahoo directory area
    is $299, so skip this option if your budget is limited.

    Pay-Per-Click Search Engine Submissions - Google lists the
    results of many smaller pay-per-click search engines. This
    can help link popularity if your site is listed in these
    results for your important keywords and phrases. There are
    hundreds of these smaller PPC engines that offer a free
    advertising credit just for signing up. Take a jaunt on
    over to PayPerClickSearchEngines.com for a good list of them.
    Submit listings under all your important keywords and phrases
    and include keywords in your title.

    Affiliate Program - Having an affiliate program can boost your
    overall sales by letting other sites do the advertising for you,
    but did you know that this can also help link popularity? For
    some affiliate program services like Commission Junction or
    LinkShare, they use a special link to track clicks and sales,
    so these may not be effective since they do not contain your
    actual domain name. The kind of affiliate program I am talking
    about is the type that uses your domain name in the tracking URL
    you give affiliates to use. Something like:
    http://www.yourcompanyname.com/aff?64340
    As long as your affiliate program uses this type of link, then
    your site should see an increase in link popularity. Just make
    sure you offer a good incentive for affiliates so that they will
    add your link to their site. Even better, you can approve only
    related sites or sites with a good Google PageRank or Alexa
    traffic ranking into your program!

    Specialized Submissions - What type of site do you have? What do you

    PSA Public Service Announcement Strategies for Non-Profit Fundraising Events
    One of the best ways to advertise and tell people about your nonprofit fundraiser event is to get the local radio station to play public service announcements for you. Perhaps you may not realize this but radio stations are required by law to do so many commercials during the day that are public service announcements.Of course your group has to qualify as a nonprofit group otherwise they will not play them. Chances are you will not be able to pick the time of day that the public service announcements are played and there will be other nonprofit groups ahead of you in the schedule.Nevertheless, if a radio station plays your public service a

    Making Change Stick
    A while ago we undertook a study of 120 companies who had been through a ‘Change Programme’ of different types on behalf of a public body and what we discovered was that over 87% of the programmes had ‘failed’, meaning the programme had not been adopted by the organisation and it had not managed to realise the financial and operational benefits of the change.In analysing the organisations who had been successful, combined with our on-going work with manufacturers, the armed forces, the NHS and service sector businesses over the last 18 months, we found that the key to success could be summed up as:▪ The selection of the right ‘tools’etter, you can approve only
