I had an interesting conversation about communication yesterday with one of my clients and it got me to thinking. Is there such a thing as too much information? Yes, there is. When someone asks you a question, answer it. Don’t launch off on a tangent providing history that goes back 10 years to answer a simple question. I’ll tell you why I say this. Time is precious. If you’re on a client call, for example, trying to provide them with a status update and they pose a question to you, answer it and move on. If you get too in depth, you’ve just opened the door to a whole bunch of problems. 1. The 2-minute status update call just turned into a 30-minute “I don’t understand what that is. Can you please tell me the all 20 steps you’re talking about” call. 2. There is information that your clients just don’t need to know. They hire you to be the expert so they don’t need to necessarily understand the entire reasoning for doing something or need to know every step you have to take to get them where they’re going. All they need to know is the end result. 3. It can quickly lead down the wrong path. I’ve sat on conference calls with clients and advertising agencies, where I would be writing copy for the project in question. The call was supposed to cover a specific topic such as the promotion plan for a new service launch. Someone on the call says too much and the call takes on a whole new direction. Now not only have you not covered the topic intended, but you’ve wasted time discussing something that isn’t relevant to the purpose of the call. 4. People digest information differently. Some people are more visual communicators than they are auditory. Hence, the reason why there are so many different communication channels. While I do talk to clients on the phone, I prefer email. As a writer, it’s much easier for me to learn what I need to know to write what I need to write. So do I need to talk to every client on the phone to complete my projects? Absolutely not. I have some clients that I have NEVER spoken to on the phone. My time is precious. So is your time and the time of your clients. Communication is the key to a healthy relationship between you and your clients, but tell them what they need to know and leave it at that. It’ll save a lot of time and heartache for all of the parties involved.

There actually are sites where you can do typing or data entry from home, that are not a scam. I paid for and joined this one site, that has given me extensive information on different ways to earn money by typing from my home computer. This site has several different sections. Each area provides detailed, step by step instructions. There are downloads included in the fee, that can make the process more efficient, and time saving. They have screen shots, and email support is available for any questions you might have. I’ve found when I’ve needed to email them, they have responded to me within hours or by the next day. The site is so extensive in the detailed instructions they provide, that I have not had to email them very often. But it’s nice to know that email support is available here if you need it. One of the sections has given me a beginning course in trying Affiliate Marketing. The site provides you with two companies, where you can sign up, and promote different products. They include a listing of classified ad sites. as well as a list of several safe lists you can join. As a beginner at Internet Marketing I would never have known what a safe list was, if it weren’t for this site. I wouldn’t have known where to find, web sites, products or services that I felt were worthwhile to promote if I hadn’t signed up. Other sections, give you information, on how to earn money by writing articles, proofreading, or by blogging. There is a list of companies that hire virtual or telecommuting workers that you can apply to. Following the steps they listed led me to other sites, and people who recommended other things, that I would never have known about, or even known what to look for in trying to find them on my own. While they don’t guarantee what kind of income you will make, they tell you up front that this is not a get rich quick scheme. They provide extensive detailed areas to seek out different ways of earning money from home. Before I joined this site, I decided to email the company, just to see if a person and not an auto responder would reply to me. Sure enough within a few hours someone did reply to me. I debated with myself for some time if I should spend that $49.95. What finally convinced me to take that leap of faith? Some people feel that anytime you have to pay money for some product or service that it must be a scam. But someone has spent time and effort putting together that information. When it’s as detailed and extensive as the information provided from this site, it makes sense that they won’t give it to you for free. After I made my payment, there was a problem with the way it processed through. I had paid my money, but was not immediately able to access the site. I got this sinking feeling, like, oh-oh, I think I’ve just been scammed. Well I was wrong about that. I emailed the support area and the parent company about the problem. Within hours two people wrote and apologized to me. The problem was quickly corrected, and I was able to access the Members area. I’m now very glad I joined this site. With all the detailed information they have provided me, I feel it is well worth the money I’ve spent there. I like it that someone is taking me by the hand and telling me, this is what the screen will look like when you get to this site. These are the areas you have to fill in. These are the steps you need to take. The Site is Scam X Certified, and they offer a 100% money back guarantee, if you’re not satisfied with their product within 60 days of signing up. I would strongly recommend this site, to those who are looking for a number of ways, to earn money typing from your home computer. With the detailed, step by step instructions this site provides, the screen shots, and the email support it’s been well worth the $49.95, that I’ve spent here. .virallinktracker.com/vlt/links/4886

Hitler in his book Mein Kampf pitilessly attacks those politicians who get offices by giving false promises, and who elseweise cheats the people of their true aims. Besides, he says that such type of government has no one who would take the responsibility for incorrect judgments or making mistakes in fields such as economy and international diplomacy. He says that if the mistakes are made, the officials only resign or are not reelected, and repeatedly refers to this idea as being feeble and having no merit. Then he states that it would not be unjustified to think that all elected politicians had a little sense of responsibility, but then continues and says that making an individual accept a position on an issue that is unfit to him can ruin the character of this person. According to Hitler book nobody would rise and say that he could not accept a position on this issue because of having no knowledge on this matter. Moreover, he condemns democracy because in his opinion it supports liberalism and provides too much freedom to the people and as Hitler believes with such freedom only chaos and internal problems can appear. Hitler roughly criticizes the necessity for electoral candidates to cringe to the masses every time the term of the elected official is coming to an end, or basically when the time of regular election comes. He furthermore condemns the weak methods applied by the electoral candidates to criticize the other candidates and to apply manners in order to stultify each other, reminding children who are playing a game. A child, states Hitler in his book, will change his or her views that are grounded on the necessity to do so, usually in reply to acceptance of other children and consequently to be compatible with what other children want and desire.

Finding hordes of traffic visiting your website is every Internet Marketers dream come true. Unfortunately most websites simply do not receive all the traffic they would like to. Even if you are happy with your traffic levels there are definite ways you can improve upon them. Review this list of top 10 Internet Marketing Strategies and decide for yourself what strategies you can add to your Internet Marketing success. *** Google Adwords & Beyond *** Good ole PPC. I’m sure you have heard of how Google pay per click campaigns supercharge your Internet marketing success what you may not know is there are other PPC websites than the highly expensive Google Adwords. * 7Search.com * LookSmart.com * AffiliateFuel.com However, if you are just starting out it’s best to utilize free Internet Marketing techniques to start with until your website generates enough cash that it pays you to do PPC. With that said let’s look at 9 more marketing options available to all Internet Marketers. *** SEO Your Website *** SEO sure isn’t what it used to be, but that doesn’t mean it should be abandoned. Don’t get overwhelmed in the area of SEO, but do make sure that the search engine spiders know what they are looking at when they arrive. *** Get Involved With Forums & Blogs *** Find PR3 or above forums and blogs which are related to your niche and get involved with them. While you can’t do blatant advertising on them, most allow you to provide a link back to your website. At worst this is another backlink to your website, at best those who are interested in what you have to say can explore more about your offerings with a simple click. *** Write Articles & Submit Them To Article Directories *** You earn more backlinks while position yourself as an expert in your industry. When writing articles I personally focus on the bum marketing approach where Google tells you what to write. You want your content to remain unique, but it’s easy to do that while writing for markets that are largely untapped within your given niche. *** Shoot Videos & Submit Them To The Video Directories *** If it’s true for articles it’s 100 times the case for videos. *** Use Social Networking & Bookmarking *** I’ll admit that this is an area where my own website marketing strategies can be greatly developed. And they will. To ignore Web 2.0 strategies when marketing your website is to risk sure death of your Internet marketing business. *** Use Automated Newsletter Services *** I’m sure you’ve heard that it’s in the list. You know what? Their right! Start building your Internet marketing list from day one for optimum success with your website. My own personal favorite in this area is Aweber. There are other similar services, just be sure to check how their customer service works before getting involved. In this area I’ve personally found none better than Aweber. *** Create Interactive Possibilities For Your Audience *** Someone has taken the time to visit your website. Treat them like royalty, not fresh meat to suck blood dry. Look for their opinions with polls and surveys. Encourage their involvement with contests and give-aways. Why not build your own website forum and encourage your visitors to submit their own niche related questions and comments? *** Link Your Blog & Website Together As One *** Search engines love blogs because their very nature leads to fresh content on a continual basis. Here’s one article marketing strategy I use with blogs. I write two similar articles. One for the website the other for the blog and then link the two together in some way. Those interested in reading the blog article will likely be interested in the website and visa versa. Do you think the search engines will notice your visitors bouncing from blog to website and back again? You bet they will, and you will be reward nicely because of it. *** Advertise Niche Related Products *** With all the above said, why not market affiliate type promotions if not your own creations? As long as you keep the information related to your niche audience your offerings will be seen as resources rather than annoyances. As you should see by now this is a list of far more than the top 10 Internet marketing strategies. Whichever you decide to use or not use, there are more than enough suggestions given above to propel you in the right direction of Internet marketing success.

You’re an Idiot: Making Value from Reaction to your Screenwriting By Gordy Hoffman If you’re like me, if someone doesn’t like something about my screenplay, my very first reaction is always the same. You’re not as smart as me. If you knew what I knew, you would understand what I wrote. And you don’t understand what I wrote, because you don’t know as much as I do. About everything, in general. In short, life. You know, people. Planet Earth. If you really don’t understand what I’m doing in my script, my first feeling is I don’t respect you. I have contempt for you. I feel attacked personally, and with my feelings hurt, I want to denigrate your position, and while I won’t call you an idiot, basically the foundation of my exchange with you in the wake of you reading my script is you are, in fact, some kind of idiot. Someone once told me I can be right or I can be happy. Or you can be right, or you can get your screenplay produced into a motion picture. I have had this happen twice, and I can tell you if I had committed myself to being right about everything during the development of the screenplay, they would still be living as files in my hard drive. Any produced screenwriter will attest to this. Whenever a reader doesn’t get information from my screenplay, facts crucial to the function of the story, stuff I feel is so obvious that the only reason they could’ve missed it all is carelessness, I know I am responsible for the breakdown. Writers over and over complain about this, appalled that someone could miss something so blatant in the script. Two ways you can take this note. One, reader read poorly. Two, you have clarity problems. What is the constructive reaction? You have a clarity problem. You might get a note saying they don’t believe a character would do or say something, particularly dialogue or actions of a certain time period or profession, such as a cop, or a farmer from the 18th century in Russia. The writer defends the charge by citing historical facts, or stating they have seven relatives in law enforcement, or they grew up in Canada, and they do, indeed, talk like that. Well, it doesn’t matter. If your audience is distracted by your authenticity rubbing them as cliché or improbable, you need to revise. Screenwriting is compression and art. It’s truth, not a transcription. Where do clichés come from anyway? I recently got a reaction from an audience member to a movie I wrote that I had never heard from anyone EVER. My first instinct was to say to myself, well, um, that’s stupid, because EVERYBODY else thinks differently. This is another reaction I’ve run into quite a bit with writers. “Everybody else thinks it’s funny or realistic or a perfect movie or…” Who is your “everybody else”? Consider your sources, and keep your mind open. In the end, “everybody else” doesn’t exist. Notes on your screenplay are not a personal attack. They might feel like that. You have made an investment of self, and you love what you have created. It is you. But someone’s reaction to your writing is not a reaction to you. It is a reaction of the person who read your screenplay. Same screenplay, different people, different reactions. So the reactions are personal to the readers. Detach from the notes to the degree to which you can improve your screenplay. Their reactions are formed primarily from their lives, not your words. Which leads me to this. Do not embrace the extremes. Listen to the ends of the spectrum of opinions, but do not wallow there. If someone thinks your script is the worst attempt at screenwriting on record, take what you can, but do not stay with this, toss it off as something off and wild. If someone thinks your script is so awesomely perfect and beautiful that there’s really nothing to be changed, take what you can, but do not stay with this, toss it off as something off and wild. Let’s say you’ve offended someone. They think your choices about language or characterization or action are patently offensive, maybe immoral, bigoted, racist, or sexist, disturbing to the point of quit. Do you need to change something? Perhaps. It’s up to you. Know that you’ve offended someone. I have written disturbing material and I didn’t change it. But I’ve learned to sincerely respect that reaction and allow it to help strengthen my creative positions. Do not listen to hysterical advice about formatting, but if people say they found typos, that means you don’t respect your movie and you need look at your attitude to your work on story. Don’t ever question the credentials of your reader. We can seek the experienced and the professional, but in the end, to discredit notes because the reader is “not a screenwriter” or “some punk in a mailroom” or “the assistant fresh out of blah blah”, I put this to you. Where exactly do you think the studios come from? Do you know where the executives started? Do you know how Hollywood began? Who is sitting in the movie seats every Friday night across the planet? Screenplay consultants? No. Your audience. Seek their reaction. They are the flashlight that works. You can gleam the most incredible insights from any one who reads your screenplay, if you put aside your fight and remember the goal of production. We can’t wait for the “qualified” to tell us what’s wrong. We don’t have to. I don’t remember what the newspapers wrote about the movies I’ve written, but I do remember what the audiences said. The hell with right. I want to make movies, and I strive for that direction.

To is a homophone. I know what you’re thinking

Finding inspiration when you are writing is often a haphazard affair. When you are physically ready to write, nothing comes. When you are pumping gas, an epiphany! Writing on the Hoof It happens to me all the time. I work all day writing a wide variety of pieces for the various sites I own. Sometimes it goes well. Sometimes it does not. Around midnight, I lay down to go to sleep. Just as I am about to nod off, bang! The ideas start coming. It is like a flood. So, do I get up and start writing? Do I go to sleep and trust I will remember in the morning? Personally, I compromise and jot down my thoughts in a journal. In the morning, a review of my notes usually kindles the fires of my memories and off I go. As a person who writes one a wide variety of subjects, I can’t tell you how valuable I find writing journals. I carry one with me all the time and it usually lasts a few months before it is full. Without it, I can only imagine how many of my random thoughts would never have made it to paper. Frankly, thousands of dollars in fees would have been lost. I use writing journals in two ways. The first use is as an epiphany note pad. Whenever and wherever I am, I can jot down this and that as it percolates in my mind. No, I don’t take a journal on dates! The second way I use a journal to help my writing is something I call writing on the hoof. Living in San Diego, there are lots of places to go for hikes. When I use the term hike, keep in mind I consider taking the garbage out a hike. Regardless, the act of walking is one that helps clear my mind. Perhaps it is just the fresh air, but I can feel the tension leave my body and thoughts begin to flow. As you might guess, I drag my journal with me to jot down those thoughts. In fact, this very article came about from this exact process. If you write frequently, I highly recommend you get some exercise and take a journal with you. You might have the epiphany you need to finish your masterpiece. Rick Chapo is with NomadJournals.com - makers of blank journals.

When making money with articles, you need to find the perfect keywords to make your niche sites a success. However, many times it is expensive to utilize paid keyword search tools. For this reason, some new marketers may prefer to try and find their keywords for free. One of the best ways to do this is to use the free Yahoo Search Marketing tools that you can find on their website. First, go to the Yahoo website and choose Search Marketing under Yahoo Advertising Solutions. Scroll down to and click on Sponsored Search. You will see a section that says “How many searches can your business get?” where you will type in the main keyword of your decided niche. This will bring up a list a of words that have your niche subject in them and tell you how many people searched for that particular word the previous month. To get an idea of what the competition is like, take each word that had a substantial amount of searches and input it into the Yahoo search engine using parenthesis. This will give you a good idea of how many people search for a particular keyword and how many sites you will be in competition with for the top spots on the first two pages. This will of course take a lot more time than a paid software program and it may not give you all of the great ideas that a program might. On the other hand, it will be free and give you extra funds for other parts of your website. If you can do this for free on your own, search engine optimize your site on your own, and write your own content, then the only thing you will have to spend money on is a website URL and web hosting. This is a great idea for those who have little to no start up cash, a lot of time on their hands, are quick learners, and can wait for the profits to start coming in (which will pretty much be pure profit). However, if you prefer to go the easy route and utilize a keyword generating software program, you can find many online. Some are more popular than others and have been a proven way for people to dig up valuable keywords for their niche sites.
