THOUGHTS OF THE DAY



Make the most of today. Translate your good intentions into actual deeds.
-- Grenville Kleiser


Most people give up just when they're about to achieve success. They quit on the one yard line. They give up at the last minute of the game one foot from a winning touchdown.
-- H. Ross Perot.


PRODUCT/SERVICE REVIEW

Here's where you can find wholesale products to sell online...

The 2 biggest questions you must have answered if you want to run a profitable internet business are..

1. What do I sell?

and

2. Where do I get it?

It doesn't matter if you sell on eBay, Yahoo stores, or your own website. Finding hot products to sell is something you'll always have to do for your business. I know companies who spend hundreds of thousands of dollars each year just to source products.

You don't have to do that.

A company called Worldwide Brands will handle the heavy lifting of product sourcing for you and let you concentrate on growing your business.

If you don't already know who Worldwide Brands is, let me tell you about them...

Worldwide Brands is the top product sourcing company in the world. They have the world's largest database of genuine, factory-direct, drop ship and wholesale suppliers. Everyone in their database has been personally contacted and pre-qualified.

They also do educational presentations for eBay Live, host Product Sourcing Radio, and are the Official Product Sourcing Editors for eBay Radio.

Early this year, they unleashed the OneSource tool and immediately gave online sellers the ability to use the same wholesale and drop ship suppliers that big name department stores, eBay Powersellers, and eCommerce store owners use.

With OneSource you get:

* Instant access to millions of products and thousands of drop ship, light bulk, liquidation, and import VERIFIED wholesale suppliers that you can use to source products to sell for a profit.

* Detailed demand, competition, keyword, and pricing market research.

* A lifetime 100% money back guarantee.

* 100% FREE customer service and hours and hours of free online education material.

Take a look at OneSource here:

www.worldwidebrands.com

Right now, they are offering a limited time $30 discount to OneSource. The discount will only last until the end of November, so you need to move fast to take advantage of it.

I can't recommend this product enough if you're looking for wholesale products to sell. It's a great place to find wholesalers & dropshippers who have products you can buy and sell for a nice profit.

Even the 'Dean of eBay University' recommends it to you. Click here to see what he had to say about OneSource:

www.worldwidebrands.com

EBay University instructor Janelle Elms said...

"They're the only legitimate sourcing company that I'll recommend to the eBay University students."

And Andy Jenkins, who has done over one million dollars drop shipping items, had this to say...

"There's a whole army of people behind this database. It's the first place and usually the last place we look."

Make sure you get this powerful product sourcing tool for your online business.

Thanks.

More Great Article Writing Tips

It is very important that you pay attention to the way that you write your resource box. Keep in mind that your resource box is the way that you will introduce yourself to your reader.

Don't just put a list of links to your websites. Let them know who you are and give them an idea of what you can do for them. Include one link to your web page or product that is most likely to be useful to the reader and if you can include some anchor text that will entice them to click through and see what you have to offer.

When you have finished writing your article make sure that you proof read it at least twice, then set it aside for a day or two, so that you can go over it again when you are in a different frame of mind. That way you can view it as though you were the reader and this can help you to get a better prospective.

If you would like a second opinion ask a family or friend to read through it and see if they suggest any changes. There are also services that will proof read your articles for you. Try doing a search for "article proofreading service" and you will find several.

So you have finished your article, now it's time to make the most out of it.

You don't want to waste all of your hard work by just submitting it to one directory. You will want to submit it to as many directories as possible.

You can do this yourself or you can spend a few dollars on an article submission service or software that will submit your article to multiple directories at the same time.

By submitting to more than one directory you can get better results from your article, because it will be seen by many more readers.

After you run your spell checking software, it is a good idea to go back and reread your article again.

Unfortunately your spell checker is not perfect and can lead to unexpected errors. For example, the words "form" and "from" are both legitimate words. But if you wrote an article that said, "Take fifty FORM your advertising budget and use it to place an ad" your spell check wouldn't see anything wrong.

It doesn't know that you meant "take fifty FROM your advertising budget and use it to place an ad". Spell checkers are convenient, but they are not always perfect. That is why it is important to read through your article at least once after you spell check it.

Writing articles to promote your product or service is a great way to increase your sales. When you are writing to promote something you must first ask yourself several questions, so you don't write an article and then have to figure out how you can relate it to your business.

Determine what you want to promote. How you want to promote it and then you can begin to write your article.

The basics in writing the article are much the same, no matter how you plan to use it. It should be written to present the positive attributes of your product or service without being obvious or making it sound like a sales pitch.

Remember readers are looking for information because they want to learn something. If you provide them with good information they will be more likely to click on your link and see what else you have to offer.

Great Blogging Quick Tips

Another good way to get traffic to your blog is to join forums that are on the same subject as yours.

Being a frequent participant on forums can not only increase the traffic to your blog it can also provide you with links back to your blog, which will help your search engine ranking. Not to mention the fact that it can increase your chances of being seen as an expert, plus help you sell more of your products and make you new friends too.

Forums very often have a signature box that appears on all of the posts that you make. In your signature file you can add you blog address and a brief advertisement to entice readers to click through to your blog.

To find a list of forums that are related to your topic just do a quick search like this, forum + "your topic". For instance if you are looking for dog related forums your search term would be (forum + "dog"). This will return a full list of dog forums that you can pick from.

If you want to increase the revenue from you blog you can do this by adding Adsense ads to it. These are ads that are put on your blog by Goggle and you get paid every time someone clicks them.

You just apply to Google for an Adsense account (www.google.com/adsense) and they give you a small piece of code to add to your blog and the ads show up automatically.

If you are using Blogger they already have an adsense option in the dashboard settings under template. So all you have to do pick the type of ad to show.

With Wordpress and some other blog software you can find Adsense ready templates (often free) that you can use to easily incorporate the ads into your blog. Just do a search for; blog template + "adsense" and you will find some great options.

Another good way to get income from your blog is to promote affiliate programs from it.

This means that whenever one of your readers buys one of the products that you are advertising from your blog you will receive a commission from the sale.

Promoting affiliate programs is the next best thing to having your own product to sell. There are many places to find products to promote. Two of the top affiliate market places are Clickbank and Commission Junction. Clickbank has a huge variety of digital products with a higher commission rate while Commission Junction carries more physical goods.

Another great place to look is at Associateprograms.com it is an affiliate program directory.

Even when your blog is up and running and you have good steady traffic to it, do not think that your readers will just keep on coming back to your blog if you do not post regularly.

Blog readers can be very fickle and the best way to keep them is to give them new things to read so that they will keep coming back.

The next thing you can do is find a way to keep in touch with them. You can do this by adding a contact from to your blog, so that you can capture their email address so that you can send them a little note to let them know that you have added a new post.

There are different ways the you can do this, but one of the easiest is to use an autoresponder service like Getresponse.com or Aweber.com that will allow you to assign your blog feed to an autoresponder which will send out a message every time you post to your blog.

Video is everywhere these days so why not use it on your blog. With all of the tools available it has never been easier to add video to your existing blog or create a complete video blog. Vlogs are increasing in popularity very quickly and it is a great new way to share your thoughts with your visitors. Plus increase the value of your blog.

It's pretty simple to add video to your blog once you have created one. All you have to do is upload it to a video hosting service like Youtube or Metacafe and use the code that they provide to embed the video on your blog. Most video hosting services have easy to follow instructions.

If you don't have your own videos you can also share videos created by other people on your blog. Just be sure to keep the videos on topic with your content.
