Marketing Tactics That Hurt

By , September 6, 2009

It’s obvious that  marketing scams are a bad way to do business. But what about marketing techniques that are not scams, but insult the intelligence of your prospect? What’s the point in doing that? Indeed, do such techniques even work? That’s a good question.

You probably receive a number of emails every week, or possible even every day, offering you goods and services. Some of them come from people you know and trust and some may come from people you don’t know. So how do you react if those emails appear to be one thing, but in reality are actually another?

Here’s an example: how do you feel if an email advises you not to buy the latest product release, but further down the email they provide an affiliate link for you to purchase from? Do you realize that there’s a chance you’ve been pulled into it? Do you feel good that the marketer said one thing, but appeared to do another?

You see, good customer service is important after a sale, but it’s just as important before the sale too. So if you are an internet marketer and you’re tempted to copy some of the techniques and tactics you see in your own inbox, it might be worth thinking twice. Those big marketers have huge mailing lists and if they upset a lot of people there’s still going to be a lot of people who might be interested.

In other words even if big marketers do badly, they can still make a lot of money! That’s not necessarily the best model to copy. For starters, you might need a list of hundreds of thousands to make it work…

While it’s important to be aware of consumer behavior, that’s not a recommendation to take advantage of it. Marketing emails pretending to be concerned about a prospect don’t cut as much ice now as they used to. In the future I hope they’ll cut even less ice. And the good news bad news limited quantity email can only be used so often before your subscribers will see the pattern.

Treating your subscribers like intelligent human beings might not make you as much money today, but you’re far more likely to grow your business in a sustainable way and not have as much ‘churn’, or subscriber turnover. Remember that the best marketing technique is the one that makes a customer and keeps a customer.

So don’t think of your subscribers as a disposable asset, think of them as your best asset – one worth nurturing and protecting.

The Hunt For Delicious Precious Bedding

By , September 6, 2009

In some parts of the world, a second bed sheet is placed on top of the sheet that covers the mattress. This second sheet is referred to as a “top sheet.” When this top sheet is put in use, the sheet directly on the mattress is referred to as a “bottom sheet.” A sleeper lies between the two sheets. Blankets, comforters, and any additional bed covers are put above the second bed sheet.

When I shop for new sheets I always look for the ones with a thread count of at least 300. This is what olympic queens are like.

Bed sheets are available in two types: flat and fitted. A flat bed sheet is nothing more than a rectangular-shaped piece of linen. A fitted bed sheet features four corners with elastic bands around the edges and is used as a bottom sheet. A reason for using a fitted bottom sheet is to prevent it from slipping off of the mattress while the sleeper moves around on the bed. A unique method of folding and tucking while making up a bed is referred to as “hospital corners,” and this is typically employed when the bottom sheet is flat as opposed to fitted. This is what extra long twin sheets are like.

Bed sheets have historically been white, but in modern times many different colors and patterns are available. The quality of bed sheets is often conveyed by the thread count. The thread count is the number of threads per square inch of bed sheet material. Usually, the higher the thread count, the softer the sheet is. Common materials used in making sheets are cotton, linen, blends of cotton / polyester, silk, wool, rayon, and others.

The type of fabric that you select when buying your sheets will make a huge impact on your comfort level. And with so many materials available, you should think hard about what type of sleeping experience you desire. The most popular choices are cotton, flannel, and silks and satins. This is what sheets are like. What about you? Are you a cotton person or silk? Do you want a frivolous thread count, or will 250 do? Think about your options carefully before you shop for bed sheets and then enjoy your choice.
