Deliver 20 Times More Nonprofit Benefits with the Same Resources, Time, and Effort

In considering how to expand your nonprofit organization’s business model (who, what, when, why, where, how, and how much of providing benefits) to 21 times its current size, you should be guided by what will be easily understandable and desirable by your stakeholders (those affected by the benefits, not just the direct beneficiaries) . . . and where the adjustments will provide more effectiveness for the nonprofit organization.

SEO Has Always Been a Game at Beating “the Algorithm”: I remember working at a large SEO Agency for 5 years and working feverishly to get client’s websites ranked in Google. Over the course of those years we saw SEVERAL “algorithm” changes on Google’s end that really shook up the rankings on our client’s sites. When you think about it - when Google makes a change and websites suddenly lose their positioning, that could literally be tagged as “sudden death” to most businesses. That’s just one reason I’m a huge supporter of PPC Advertising. Read more »

Keeping Focused While Working From Home

I used to wonder how others did it; keeping focused to enable them to work from home. What I have discovered, are five steps, or tools, that can be applied on a daily basis to develop a solid career sitting at my own desk in my home. These tools, along with an exceptional marketing system and company with which to partner, have me on a pathway headed straight for success.

The most important aspect to address whenever starting any endeavor is identifying your ‘WHY’. That is your deep sense of purpose, the reason you are doing a particular activity. This is your time to dream big and start envisioning it and believing you will achieve it. Letting go of any feelings of guilt regarding gaining wealth or giving up hours with the children needs to take place as well. You will be able to schedule around that and have the most productive hours of work time take place during your children’s quiet time.

As a mom with three young children (ages 7, 4, and 7 months), a husband, and a home, I have realized, it is all about balance and having a positive attitude. Most days begin with the whirlwind of getting ready for school and making breakfast. I have found if I begin that day with 15 minutes of working time, I never feel the urgency to ‘get to work’. During that time, I answer emails that came in from the night before and check all of my lead generating media. That allows me to start formulating my plan for the day in my head.

The most important time of the day for me is my “Golden Hour”. There are no interruptions during this time and I only perform income producing activities. These may be answering leads, placing ads, or writing articles. I have prearranged a number of friends on a rotation to play with my infant son, of which most of this time he is napping. I make sure I am not busying myself with the many other household tasks that can stare me in the face, such as doing the dishes and laundry. My coffee is already made by this time as well.

What Do You Do And Say To Build A Successful Home Based Business

When I first started my home based business career, I was a pretty shy person. I was awful in talking to people. The thought of picking up a phone and calling a stranger horrified me. I used to literally sit at my desk staring at the phone for hours trying to sum up the courage to call the people. It was ridiculous, but my mind found a way to justify my inaction with one excuse or another. The problem stemmed from my lack of confidence. When I would call finally, I came from a place of weakness and desperation. I was spending every spare cent I had on leads and tools, and I HAD to sponsor a new rep soon or I would be out of money and a failure. That desperation and lack of confidence came though on the phone… and people took advantage of it. I came from a position of servitude, doing anything I could to please the prospect and keep them in the pipeline. This is a major problem with people new to this industry, but it can be quickly conquered with a little education. Read more »

Why Everyone Needs Title Insurance

Every day, buyers put in offers on Philadelphia Condominiums they would like to purchase. Such offers are usually contingent upon certain inspections such as a termite, mold, or home inspection. This is a great idea especially because purchasing a home-whether it’s an Old City Loft or a Rittenhouse Square Condominium-could be the biggest and most important purchase of someone’s life. But for some reason, no one ever seems as concerned about the condition of their new condominium’s title. Most people may not even realize that purchasing a home with a “moldy” title could end up causing you more financially, not to mention emotionally, than having to replace a roof. Read more »

10 Surefire Strategies for Marketing to Generation Y

They’re called Generation Y, Millennials, Echo Boomers, and Connecteds. By whatever name, this generation of youth born after 1977 represents more than 70 million consumers in the United States. They earn a total annual income of about $211 billion, spend approximately $172 billion per year** and considerably influence many adult consumer buying choices, so no longer are they the youth that will be seen but not heard — and marketing professionals need to take notice!

Generation Y cannot be reached through traditional marketing channels. Direct mail, print ads, and television advertising bounce off these powerful consumers like bullets on Superman’s chest. They are impermeable to the marketing messages that appealed to their parents and grandparents. Generation Y represents a massive group of influencers — the largest, and the most cutting edge generation in our history. Read more »

Find the Ideal Route: Determine What Benefits to Make 21 Times More Available

“If you ever plan to motor west, travel my way, take the highway that’s the best . . . Get your kicks on Route 66.” ? Bobby Troup

From space many places on Earth look pretty flat. From the ground more obstacles become apparent: Granite mountains loom in places where chasms divide neighboring areas. Both perspectives tell you something you need to know. The space view shows you the most direct route as the proverbial crow flies, while the close-up view shows you obstacles that are well worth avoiding where that’s possible. In this article, the broadest perspective, like that from space, is emphasized.
