He found that way through marketing. |

Seven Steps for Creating Successful Marketing

| 1. Find the inherent drama within your offering.
After all, you plan to make money by selling a product or a service or both. The reasons people will want to buy from you should give you a clue as to the inherent drama in your product or service. Something about your offering must be inherently interesting or you wouldn't be putting it up for sale. In Mother Nature breakfast cereal, it is the high concentration of vitamins and minerals. |

4 Easy Steps to Finding Legitimate Work At Home Jobs
| |
| A few months ago, I was enjoying my morning bowl of cereal and going through my bills. I got nervous, went on line to check my bank balance and began to panic. I had no idea where I would come up with the money to cover everything. Earlier this year, I asked my boss for a much deserved raise, but unsurprisingly, with the state of the economy, he said no. This was right on the heels of not receiving a year end bonus. So, I decided to take matters into my own hands. I pledged to myself that I would start working only 8 hours a day instead of my usual 10. I would head home and spend 2-3 hours each night working on my own business. |

Sometimes Unintended Consequences Are A Good Thing
| |
| We’re all familiar with the “Law of Unintended Consequences.” My personal favorite is still the plastic whistles that were packaged with Cap’n Crunch cereal back in the ’70s. Blowing the whistle into your phone triggered a connection to AT&T’s long distance dialing AND by-passed their billing system. Free calls! Not exactly what Quaker Oats had in mind. (…and Ma Bell was not pleased.) |
