Well here is where you’re missing out on extra profits.
You just got someone to open up their wallet and […]

Yes, we’re all fans of the “top 10″ lists. Here is a list of top 10 landing page mistakes marketers and business owners make and how to avoid them.

Word on the “street” is that Googles’ new PPC landing page algorithm is more targeted towards those spamy sites giving you hundreds of links to other sites. This is somewhat true.
After running through keywords we target, I’ve noticed that those keywords that we target but never use on the site fell by more than 8 spots […]

Buy it at Amazon
This is an excellent book for marketers to read. I’d even “position” this book as one of the best marketing books out there. Today, when there is so much “fluff” out there and things being repeated and re-sold in books, you come to realize how much you appreciate a fresh thought. This […]

Did you know that 9-40% of typical online merchants’ sales come from the affiliate program, yet many ignore to perfect it. Could it be that we don’t want to spend too much time on affiliates or maybe we just don’t know how to?

Have you noticed that it’s much easier to critique and make suggestions to the marketing projects of someone else’s creative than your own? Problem is … when we spend too much time working within our industry, it’s difficult to get out of the box and get a fresh look at our marketing creative.

I am not a fan of motivation speeches “Make mistakes, strive harder, work hard, if you fail it’s great…” This post is not about that!
What I mean when I say make mistakes is … if you are doing some sort of advertising, you’re using your educated opinion and knowledge in marketing to structure the ad […]

Have you noticed that most companies use multiple images on their advertising materials, website, billboards, etc? No, that’s not the “1 Image Rule”. It’s what I call … “Confuse the sh*t out of a prospect” strategy. Here is what I am talking about…
