There's a dirty little secret about press releases that the media doesn't want you to know. The fact is, most of them travel directly from the sender’s computer to the reporter’s trash box. Or from out of the envelope into the "round file."That's part of the reason reporters don't like to be asked "did you see my press release." They probably did, but they threw it in the trash so they don't remember yours specificially.But you do still need press releases sometimes. (Like, when you have news.) So when you do, remember this.You may already know that every press release has a headline – a short title – and a lead, or first paragraph. What you may not know is that virtually nothing else in your release matters!The job of a release is to attract and pique the reporter to read on. Keep the “head” and the “lead” snappy – and short. Make them compelling, intriguing, and grabbing.(But still true, please. This is no time to emulate a supermarket tabloid. Do not claim, for instance, that famous stars are among your clients, just because the former quarterback of the high school football team uses your services.)To get the best chance for publicity from your press release,
Every television viewer has seen the infomercial spot showing the forlorn, wanna-be inventor, crushed, their idea being successfully marketed by another party. He did not get a patent. The answer offered in the commercial, contact an invention Submission Company, get a patent, market your product or opportunity to thousands of corporate decision-makers, get rich. This is the American Dream, is it not?One of the saddest aspects of my work as a new product development and marketing consultant is the whole area of invention submission firms. We see dozens of entrepreneurs every year: mentally torn, financially rocked, hopes depleted after their experience with the invention mills. In a number of cases real opportunity has been slaughtered. In many other cases the product or service offered would never be a realistically viable commercial opportunity, and any capable consultant would honestly advise such.Essentially these dream merchants are boiler rooms. After viewing the commercial and calling the toll free number, the inventor is contacted by a sales person. Submission materials are forwarded, promises made and costs are discussed. Many entrepreneurs do not have the needed investment monies

You must be wondering what can America's most wanted teach me! Well, you will be surprised. The story behind this person has far reaching lessons that we can all learn from and use in improving our lives and help in finding our dream jobs and careers.Well Stanley 'Tookie' Williams did not quite make it to the list of America's Most Wanted, but he was responsible for cofounding one of America's most notorious gangs in South Central Los Angeles, California, USA. He cofounded 'the Crips' gang, the deadly rivals and enemy of the bloods which have both run riot and damage to the communities involved. But would you believe it, this man went from being a gang leader to being nominated for a 'Nobel Peace Prize'! Is that strange or what? How does someone so violent, on death row at San Quentin prison, go from being a gang member to potentially receiving one of the most prestigious prizes known on earth - simply remarkable. A Nobel prize nomination is something very few men and women ever get to achieve in their lives. And that is the story of Stanley Williams, narrated in his book 'Life in Prison' with writer Barbara Becnel.I thought the lessons from his book were so significant and useful for peopl

A growing number of webmasters are discovering that Adsense is a significant and reliable revenue generator. And many of these webmasters realize the importance of targeting the highest paying keywords. They research high paying keywords by using lists which identify the search terms which pay the most per click. But even after all of their research and effort is expended in placing the high paying keywords on their websites, they are perplexed when they never make the money they expected to make. What is wrong with this picture?The problem isn't that they targeted the wrong search keywords. Instead, the problem is the lack of visitors to their website. The solution is a simple matter of optimizing their website's search navigation.The easiest way to think about this is to place yourself in your website visitor's shoes. How are your visitors using your website? Why are they even on your site in the first place? What are they looking for? Webmasters need to consider the basic habits of web surfers. When a surfer arrives on a page, their first tendency is to click on links which they find interesting. So the webmaster's game plan is to enable visitors on h

Letting people know about your business Web siteYou can’t set up in cyberspace and expect customers to just come to your business Web site. You have to let them know you are there. And, while there are people who look online, there are still plenty of others who are not as Web savvy as you would like them to be. For those folks, you need an offline marketing strategy to get them to your business Web site. This is where the postcard comes in. Put your Web address on an attractive postcard to create interest in your business Web site. Postcard marketing is uniquely compatible with online marketing:Postcard marketing is low cost. You can generate several thousand for a relatively small amount of money and they are inexpensive to mail. They are a low cost way of generating Web traffic.Postcards arrive at the home or business, in a place where a computer is readily available. This makes it easy to simply take the postcard immediately to the computer and enter the Web address.Postcards are small, and even if the customer is not near a computer, it is easy to slip into a pocket or purse. They aren’t awkward or annoying. It is just as easy (often easier!) to carry a postcard around as
