How To Guide's Blogging for Business Success

Marketing is Now Officially in the Bag!

2008-02-05T13:17:00.000-05:00

Brooklyn, New York – [February 4, 2008] – www.TheSampleBag adds a twist on direct marketing including a brand new business opportunity!

The Sample Bag and its owners, Ellen Levinas, of How To Guide,and Renee Brown of Womens Avenue is now including a newly implemented business opportunity which is a tri-fold of direct marketing and advertising at its best!

The Sample Bag was created with the entrepreneur and consumer in mind, where individuals send in nicely sized samples and multiple offerings from other businesses that they are representing while obtaining spectacular advertising in the bag that will go out to consumers for one very low fee. Consumers benefit by getting a bag with multiple items in it from companies they might know, but also companies that they never knew existed. The Sample Bag and its owners decided to take this even one step further and is now offering a business opportunity where their representatives now receive a commission on bags sold, and many perks to help them along, including marketing materials, bonuses, contests and more!

To put it mildly the representatives of The Sample Bag gain a tremendous amount of advertising and marketing by being in the bag; being listed on the site, all while earning commission and bonuses at the same time. "As our site gained tremendous popularity since its launch in January, it became apparent to us that everyone could benefit even further by offering a wonderful business opportunity, and marketing and advertising all at the same time." Ellen said. "Consumers have no idea at what a great deal they are getting as well, as each bag is filled to the top with wonderful items that they can use for themselves, give away as gifts, etc. It is a super value for one very low fee, where everyone is extremely happy!" Ellen Levinas, Co-owner, www.thesamplebag.com

Bags are on sale all month long, but the first Sample Bag sale begins on February 7, 2008. The opportunity is there for anyone to pursue. Thus the more samples a person sends in the more bags they will be in, and the more bags a person sells the more money they will make, and not only from the sale of the bag, but also from their own business leads stemming from the "bag." However, the consumer also benefits greatly as they will never get a bag full of items like this one, for one extremely low fee! It really is "All in the Bag!" For additional information please visit: The Sample Bag

Founded in 2007, The Sample Bag is dedicated to marketing and advertising at its best, as well as customer service and guaranteed delivery of super Sample Bags to its consumers. More information about The Sample Bag can be found at www.thesamplebag.com.

Let's Talk About Recruiting and Sales!

2007-10-07T02:40:00.000-04:00

Did you know that it is statistically proven that if your name/site is visibly seen between 5-7 times by individuals, it is almost as if they know you? So how does this incorporate into recruiting and sales? Good question. Very simply stated is that if someone "knows you" then they will begin to trust you, and if they trust you, then they will buy from you, and/or join your teams.

Now we aren't talking about people that really know you, even on the Net, that is a given, if they have a reason to join a specific company, and they really know you, then they will most likely contact you. However, in the case above, persistence is the key to your success. Don't expect people to come to you to sign up for a particular company if they don't know about it. It is your job to promote, advertise, and keep doing it over and over again, until you can verbally repeat the ad in your sleep, if that's what it takes. :-)

Your mission, should you decide to accept it JIM, :-) is to steadily build a stream of trust within those groups that you advertise in. How? As stated above...keep pluggin away, eventually people will come to know you, and you will begin to see the fruits of your labor!

BACK TO BLOGGING BASICS

2007-10-03T19:33:00.000-04:00

Back to Blogging Basics

I have often heard the same questions asked over and over again, but in my humble opinion no question is a silly question! With that being said, one of the questions often asked by many is...
What is a blog? I say that this is a good question that deserves a good answer! The best way to answer this question is taken from a couple of sources.

Definitions of Blog on the Web:

Blog is short for weblog. A weblog is a journal (or newsletter) that is frequently updated and intended for general public consumption. Blogs generally represent the personality of the author or the Web site.
www.bytowninternet.com/glossary

A blog is basically a journal that is available on the web. The activity of updating a blog is "blogging" and someone who keeps a blog is a "blogger." Blogs are typically updated daily using software that allows people with little or no technical background to update and maintain the blog.
www.conceptwebsites.com/SEO/common-terms.htm

An online Journal.
matra.sourceforge.net/misc/glossary.php

A blog is information that is instantly published to a Web site. Blog scripting allows someone to automatically post information to a Web site. The information first goes to a blogger Web site. Then the information is automatically inserted into a template tailored for your Web site.
mason.gmu.edu/~montecin/netterms.htm

A short form for weblog, a frequent and chronological publication of comments and thoughts on the web. They usually include philosophical reflections, opinions on the Internet and social or political issues.
www.epolitix.com/NR/exeres/0CE8163A-7446-43D7-A038-91C95E078E97,frameless.htm

A public web site where users post informal journals of their thoughts, comments, and philosophies, updated frequently and normally reflecting the views of the blog's creator.
www.worldwidelearn.com/elearning-essentials/elearning-glossary.htm

Web LOG is a journal kept on the internet. This journal is often updated daily and contains all information that the person maintaining the BLOG (Blogger) wishes to share with the world. Also applies to websites dedicated to a particular topic and being updated with the latest news, views and trends.
www.optymise.co.nz/resources/glossary.asp

The name "blog" is a truncated form of "web log" according to Rebecca Blood's essay "Weblogs: a history and perspective." Blog is used to refer to sites that can best be described as mini sites or mini directories, populated with the site owner's personal opinions. Blogs are now popular for business use as well.
www.thewebdivision.com/glossary.html

A weblog or internet diary. Weblogs enable users to publish short comments and ideas instantly for other people to read. Blogging can be an effective communications tool for small groups of people to keep in touch with each other.
www.z2z.com/site01/itglos01.html

I think this about sums it up. In essence a blog is a journal or diary as mentioned, and can be an extremely useful tool to the many that own sites and/or use their blogs as a site. In my case, I am using my blog as an addition to my site, but the concept of both the site and blog is the same, that concept is business related, thus you have the name of my blog, Blogging for Business Success.

I WILL meet you at the top!

Sincerely,

Ellen Levinas/Owner

Do YOU Know What a Virtual Assistant Can Do For You?

2007-09-15T03:25:00.000-04:00

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE…

Do YOU Know What a Virtual Assistant Can do For You?

Brooklyn, NY – [September 15, 2007] – Ellen Levinas a Certified Master Virtual Assistant has noticed the recent impact that Virtual Assistants are now having on almost any kind of business that needs that extra helping hand without the overhead.

While employers continue to pay yearly salaries, vacation days, sick days, and insurance to their employees a new and improved method of assistance has become the new wave of the present and the future, that new wave is the Virtual Assistant. While the concept of Virtual Assistance is not new, we are now seeing more and more employers outsource their work-load to qualified VA’s in the hopes that they can find someone responsible, ethically sound, and trustworthy enough to establish a long-term working relationship, without the overhead. The sheer beauty of it is that everyone wins, assuming that you have found the right person.

In retrospect, the conventional way of having that face-to-face contact, and having someone at your beck and call at almost every minute of the work day has always worked; however, if you think about all the money an employer can save by hiring a qualified VA, particularly with all technology that is so readily available to us, like emailing, instant messaging, and/or simply using a cell phone, VA’s are there to help you every step of the way, just like a full-time employee would be, providing that an arrangement has been set between an employer and a Virtual Assistant. The other good news is if you don’t want that type of working relationship, then you just pay a VA per job! No insurance, no sick days and no overhead period. “Being a Certified MVA, has allowed me to assist individuals and businesses, make money, and save people money all at the same time! The beauty of working virtually is that everyone wins and benefits from hiring a VA to get the jobs done in a timely and efficient manner. VA’s and employers alike make wonderful use of our virtual world, taking it a step further into reality, it works wonders.” Ellen Levinas,
Owner www.howtoguide.us/VA.

If you are seeking a qualified and Certified Master Virtual Assistant, then contact Ellen Levinas to assist you, saving you time, and money all in one shot. Ellen has over 23 years of experience in various fields, including Administrative support, marketing, writing, and so much more.

Boasting hundreds of thousands of hits a month, and sending out over 20,000 bookmarks and postcards a year, combined with a weekly newsletter and Internet marketing makes this site stand apart from the rest! Not only is premier advertising available for less than you thought possible, but you are also introduced into their newsletter for added exposure that goes out to over thousands of local families per month.

What makes this site so special is a question that is always asked to the owner of ArlingtonParent.com, Bianca Landis, “It is not really that the site itself is all that special; however, the hard work and effort put forth to make this site a success for parents, local families and businesses alike, was always my passion. Since I have four young children of my own, having a community that comes together, holds different types of events, and in searching for necessities and/or luxuries quickly and easily, is something that I need and needed to do on a daily basis. Therefore, it only made sense to me to have all of this available to anyone who needs that extra helping hand, that in itself is pretty special, as it helps everyone out in the long-run.”

For quite a small fee per year, you too can list your businesses, schools, retail stores, work at home businesses and more! Know that this fee is not a high price to pay for premium exposure at its best, as compared to magazine ads, newspaper ads and the like. Along with that you can also list on the sites calendar of events and local perks section at no charge throughout the entire year. Sponsorship, and non-for-profit packages are also available.

KIDS' CLOTHING LINE REFLECTS PLAYFULLNESS AND INDIVIDUALITY

KIDS’ CLOTHING LINE REFLECTS PLAYFULNESS AND INDIVIDUALITY
Mom Develops Passion and Talent Into Successful Business

(Coeur d’Alene, ID) July 15, 2007 - With a flair for creative kids’ clothes, Roslyn’s Closet has grown from a homegrown t-shirt shop to a nationwide boutique line. The line of whimsical children’s onesies, t-shirts and hats breaks the mold of cookie-cutter clothing and highlights a child’s uniqueness.

After only ten months in business, the Roslyn’s Closet line is now carried in eight boutiques and on Crisp’s own Internet site, www.roslynscloset.com.

Jodi Crisp, owner of Roslyn’s Closet and work-at-home mom of two, started out making cute designs for her own young children to wear.

“I wanted my kids clothing to stand out from the crowd and also say something about who they were,” Crisp said. “Fun clothes are a great way to show off their little personalities.”

That was the beginning of a clothing line she soon started giving to friends as gifts, and it quickly grew into a thriving venture.

Crisp, a former elementary school teacher and self-proclaimed “doodler,” creates all of the designs herself. Many are hand-drawn in a style that Crisp says, “captures the sweetness and innocence of childhood.” The pencil-colored designs highlight such classic kid identities as princess, cowboy, peanut and silly monkey.

The Roslyn’s Closet line also features Crisp’s clean “circle” designs in a variety of colors with initial monograms or common phrases such as “big brother,” “happy,” and “loved.”

Crisp says she sometimes feels she is working two full-time jobs, one as mother and one as business owner, but the rewards are worthwhile.

“As a teacher, art and children have always been important to me.” Crisp explains. “I’ve been able to combine those passions and use my talents to build a business at home around my family.”

As Roslyn’s Closet approaches its first anniversary, Crisp continues to create fresh designs and plans to place the line in more children’s boutiques.

Your guests are invited to go there, this is public as well, where ads are placed for people to come to your party. Therefore, you can actually sit in your pajamas and sell your items. Why run to someone’s home party, or even do your own at home, when you don’t even have to leave your seats! Proven and tried by thousands, the online party is here to stay.

Never say Never

2005-04-26T02:26:00.000-04:00

Well, another day another dollar??? Well we hope so don't we. :) The best advice that I could give anyone is to not give up. Once you give up, you are lost soul wandering about not really knowing which way to go. Now that doesn't mean you can't change things around, but don't give up on what you're doing, be it in business or in your personal lives. My motto has always been, "Never say Never" and it remains as such until today. Once you say I give up, and it will "never" happen, all hope is lost. Have some faith, and keep on trucking!

Until tomorrow,

Sanivel

Sanivel Intimates is committed to providing consumers with quality lingerie, gifts, and excellent customer service, its goal is to provide both men and women with intimates that are fashionable, fun, and low cost, with no skimming on the quality of the items that they offer.

Brooklyn, New York (PRWEB) April 22, 2005 - - Sanivel Intimates, a leading lingerie online store recently went through a new and improved site change which includes a new line of men’s intimates, and gifts. While other online lingerie stores charge large sums of money for their lingerie and intimate apparel Sanivel Intimates still remains humbly priced to allow consumers to purchase quality lingerie for half the cost. http://www.sanivelintimates.com

Comparable to the name brand lingerie being sold on the Internet, and in brick and mortar locations, Sanivel Intimates is a quality e-commerce store providing a consumer with stunning products for both men and women, and excellent services including free shipping with a purchase of $50.00, and a free mystery gift with two items purchased. Combine that with an opportunity to partner with Sanivel Intimates as an affiliate for free, and you have a very exciting place to purchase your intimates, plus a free business opportunity for anyone that is interested.

While the latest trends, fashions, and styles change from year-to-year, and from season to season, lingerie remains the center of romance, intimacy and fun no matter what the latest fashion trends are, but why spend a fortune on it if you don’t have to. It is the goal of Sanivel Intimates to capture the sense of romance back into people’s lives without having people spend tons of money on it in the process.

The Daffodil Principle

2005-04-23T12:28:00.000-04:00

Several times my daughter had telephoned to say, "Mother, you must come and see the daffodils before they are over." I wanted to go, but it was a two-hour drive from Laguna to Lake Arrowhead. Going and coming took most of a day - and I honestly did not have a free day until the following week.
"I will come next Tuesday," I promised, a little reluctantly, on her third call. Next Tuesday dawned cold and rainy. Still, I had promised, and so I drove the length of Route 91, continued on I-215, and finally turned onto Route 18 and began to drive up the mountain highway. The tops of the mountains were sheathed in clouds, and I had gone only a few miles when the road was completely covered with a wet, gray blanket of fog. I slowed to a crawl, my heart pounding. The road becomes narrow and winding toward the top of the mountain.
As I executed the hazardous turns at a snail's pace, I was praying to reach the turnoff at Blue Jay that would signify I had arrived. When I finally walked into Carolyn's house and hugged and greeted my grandchildren I said, "Forget the daffodils, Carolyn! The road is invisible in the clouds and fog, and there is nothing in the world except you and these darling children that I want to see bad enough to drive another inch!"
My daughter smiled calmly, "We drive in this all the time, Mother."
"Well, you won't get me back on the road until it clears - and then I'm heading for home!" I assured her.
"I was hoping you'd take me over to the garage to pick up my car. The mechanic just called, and they've finished repairing the engine," she answered.
"How far will we have to drive?" I asked cautiously.
"Just a few blocks,"Carolyn said cheerfully.
So we buckled up the children and went out to my car. "I'll drive," Carolyn offered. "I'm used to this." We got into the car, and she began driving.
In a few minutes I was aware that we were back on the Rim-of-the-World Road heading over the top of the mountain. "Where are we going?" I exclaimed, distressed to be back on the mountain road in the fog. "This isn't the way to the garage!"
"We're going to my garage the long way," Carolyn smiled, "by way of the daffodils."
"Carolyn, I said sternly, trying to sound as if I was still the mother and in charge of the situation, "please turn around. There is nothing in the world that I want to see enough to drive on this road in this weather."
"It's all right, Mother," She replied with a knowing grin. "I know what I'm doing. I promise, you will never forgive yourself if you miss this experience."
And so my sweet, darling daughter who had never given me a minute of difficulty in her whole life was suddenly in charge - and she was kidnapping me! I couldn't believe it. Like it or not, I was on the way to see some ridiculous daffodils - driving through the thick, gray silence of the mist-wrapped mountaintop at what I thought was risk to life and limb.
I muttered all the way. After about twenty minutes we turned onto a small gravel road that branched down into an oak-filled hollow on the side of the mountain. The fog had lifted a little, but the sky was lowering, gray and heavy with clouds.
We parked in a small parking lot adjoining a little stone church. From our vantage point at the top of the mountain we could see beyond us, in the mist, the crests of the San Bernardino range like the dark, humped backs of a herd of elephants. Far below us the fog-shrouded valleys, hills, and flatlands stretched away to the desert.
On the far side of the church I saw a pine-needle-covered path, with towering evergreens and manzanita bushes and an inconspicuous, lettered sign "Daffodil Garden."
We each took a child's hand, and I followed Carolyn down the path as it wound through the trees. The mountain sloped away from the side of the path in irregular dips, folds, and valleys, like a deeply creased skirt.
Live oaks, mountain laurel, shrubs, and bushes clustered in the folds, and in the gray, drizzling air, the green foliage looked dark and monochromatic. I shivered. Then we turned a corner of the path, and I looked up and gasped. Before me lay the most glorious sight, unexpectedly and completely splendid. It looked as though someone had taken a great vat of gold and poured it down over the mountain peak and slopes where it had run into every crevice and over every rise. Even in the mist-filled air, the mountainside was radiant, clothed in massive drifts and waterfalls of daffodils. The flowers were planted in majestic, swirling patterns, great ribbons and swaths of deep orange, white, lemon yellow, salmon pink, saffron, and butter yellow.
Each different-colored variety (I learned later that there were more than thirty-five varieties of daffodils in the vast display) was planted as a group so that it swirled and flowed like its own river with its own unique hue.
In the center of this incredible and dazzling display of gold, a great cascade of purple grape hyacinth flowed down like a waterfall of blossoms framed in its own rock-lined basin, weaving through the brilliant daffodils. A charming path wound throughout the garden. There were several resting stations, paved with stone and furnished with Victorian wooden benches and great tubs of coral and carmine tulips. As though this were not magnificent enough, Mother Nature had to add her own grace note - above the daffodils, a bevy of western bluebirds flitted and darted, flashing their brilliance. These charming little birds are the color of sapphires with breasts of magenta red. As they dance in the air, their colors are truly like jewels above the blowing, glowing daffodils. The effect was spectacular.
It did not matter that the sun was not shining. The brilliance of the daffodils was like the glow of the brightest sunlit day. Words, wonderful as they are, simply cannot describe the incredible beauty of that flower-bedecked mountain top.
Five acres of flowers! (This too I discovered later when some of my questions were answered.) "But who has done this?" I asked Carolyn. I was overflowing with gratitude that she brought me - even against my will. This was a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
"Who?" I asked again, almost speechless with wonder, "And how, and why, and when?"
"It's just one woman," Carolyn answered. "She lives on the property. That's her home." Carolyn pointed to a well-kept A-frame house that looked small and modest in the midst of all that glory.
We walked up to the house, my mind buzzing with questions. On the patio we saw a poster. "Answers to the Questions I Know You Are Asking" was the headline. The first answer was a simple one. "50,000 bulbs," it read. The second answer was, "One at a time, by one woman, two hands, two feet, and very little brain." The third answer was, "Began in 1958."
There it was. The Daffodil Principle.
For me that moment was a life-changing experience. I thought of this woman whom I had never met, who, more than thirty-five years before, had begun - one bulb at a time - to bring her vision of beauty and joy to an obscure mountain top. One bulb at a time.
There was no other way to do it. One bulb at a time. No shortcuts - simply loving the slow process of planting. Loving the work as it unfolded.
Loving an achievement that grew so slowly and that bloomed for only three weeks of each year. Still, just planting one bulb at a time, year after year, had changed the world.
This unknown woman had forever changed the world in which she lived. She had created something of ineffable magnificence, beauty, and inspiration.
The principle her daffodil garden taught is one of the greatest principle of celebration: learning to move toward our goals and desires one step at a time - often just one baby-step at a time - learning to love the doing, learning to use the accumulation of time.
When we multiply tiny pieces of time with small increments of daily effort, we too will find we can accomplish magnificent things. We can change the world.
"Carolyn," I said that morning on the top of the mountain as we left the haven of daffodils, our minds and hearts still bathed and bemused by the splendors we had seen, "it's as though that remarkable woman has needle-pointed the earth! Decorated it. Just think of it, she planted every single bulb for more than thirty years. One bulb at a time! And that's the only way this garden could be created. Every individual bulb had to be planted. There was no way of short-circuiting that process. Five acres of blooms. That magnificent cascade of hyacinth! All, just one bulb at a time."
The thought of it filled my mind. I was suddenly overwhelmed with the implications of what I had seen. "It makes me sad in a way," I admitted to Carolyn. "What might I have accomplished if I had thought of a wonderful goal thirty-five years ago and had worked away at it 'one bulb at a time' through all those years. Just think what I might have been able to achieve!"
My wise daughter put the car into gear and summed up the message of the day in her direct way. "Start tomorrow," she said with the same knowing smile she had worn for most of the morning. Oh, profound wisdom!
It is pointless to think of the lost hours of yesterdays. The way to make learning a lesson a celebration instead of a cause for regret is to only ask, "How can I put this to use tomorrow?"
