Is boycotting one brand of gasoline, say Exxon, a good way to lower gas prices?

Friday, July 3, 2009 21:44 | Filled in Other - Business & Finance

I got an email that declared if lots of people stopped buying gas from the couple biggest oil companies, they would be forced to lower their prices. After this happened the smaller companies would have to follow in order to keep up with the market. Would this plan work?

Also, if I stood on a street corner and told people this plan, singling out the brand name Exxon, would I get in trouble? Someone told me I could get sued or something.

Internet/Affiliate Marketing : What if I don’t want to create a website but instead email ads?

Friday, July 3, 2009 7:15 | Filled in Other - Advertising & Marketing

Where do you get the advertisements to email? I can’t put the words together very well because this is a bit confusing. ‘m assuming you get in touch with a company, they give you the advertisement and you distribute it via email. I am probably wrong, so if you know, please teach me, it would help so much. Thank you.
From my other question: What I really want to know is: Do you have to invest some amount of money at all to become successful in this business? I do have some money but it seems risky and i can never tell when a site is a scam or not. Do the guides that some websites offer really help? This info would be greatly appreciated.

Viral Marketing advice?

Thursday, July 2, 2009 6:19 | Filled in Other - Advertising & Marketing

In 2007 I founded a guidance organisation in my country. we done some work and got great exposure. by this i mean we were interviewed by radio stations and newspapers and were advertised on the front page of many newspapers. now we are launching a campaign to help the youth to build a successful future. included in this campaign we are selling guidepacks. in order for the campaign to be launched we will need to sell the initial 1000 guidepacks. so people/companies will have to sponsor the packs for the youth. sponsors will receive benefits one of them being their company logo in the guidepack telling the receiver that they sponsored it. how can we sell these packs to start the campaign using viral marketing tactics? everyday i read in our newspapers about crime and as my organisation did before, we will make a change. so please help with your idea or email me if you require more info at info@soulutionz.co.za.

Will you help me stop the Socialist’s from lying to American’s?

Thursday, July 2, 2009 4:27 | Filled in Politics

ALERT: Did you know there’s a “global concert” taking place tomorrow?

Yeah, we didn’t either. Until we got an email from the socialist-wannabe’s at MoveOn.org, saying, “On July 7th, 2 billion people will watch the Live Earth concerts for a climate in crisis.”

Two billion people? That’s hard to believe (in fact, news articles are starting to report that the “turnout” will be a LOT lower than anticipated). But MoveOn.org and their leftist buddies at Avaaz.org (which MoveOn co-founded) want to take full advantage of this audience to spread their propaganda at “house parties” around the world.

Why? So that then they can “take action” to advance their pro-socialist, anti-free market agenda — or, as they put it, “reverse Bush policies on climate change.”

So this Saturday, especially in America, leftists are going to drive their big SUVs to get together in electric-air-conditioned living rooms all over the country, watch the anti-capitalist concert on big-screen plasma televisions, sign up for email lists to discuss the “next steps” to take on their anti-American economy agenda, and start “seriously mobilizing people” to get countries to pass legislation that’s based on disputed and discredited “junk science.” They’ll even get a chance to hear Al Gore answer some tough questions like “if we don’t stop evil American capitalism, will the planet be destroyed next year or the year after?”

It’s amazing anyone takes these people seriously — but unfortunately, these people are the ones now in the majority in Congress.

Is there any way to counter the propaganda they’ll be spreading all over America — and the world — at these “house parties”?

YES — we’ve got an easy way for YOU to get the TRUTH out instead!

TAKE ACTION: Thanks to the support of groups like MoveOn.org and their allies in the liberal media, “Live Earth” has already enabled MoveOn to organize “house parties” in over 115 countries. We MUST do something to counter this “globaloney” propaganda — and now we CAN.

We can have our own “virtual house parties” all across America, and around the world — all at the click of the “Send” button!

There are several GREAT videos that show what utter BUNK the whole “man-caused global warming” junk science is — and the best thing is, they’re all available for FREE on the internet! You can watch them streaming online, download them to your computer to watch later, burn them onto disks and hand them out to everyone you know… or even actually invite them all over to your house to watch together!

Click here for a streaming video of one of the best one-hour documentaries ever done on this issue, The Greenhouse Conspiracy, which was released over a decade ago… and STILL has never been refuted!

The free RealPlayer from real.com is required to view. If you’d like to download this documentary to your computer, it’s available here in two parts:

Part one
Part two

Also, a group of scientists “north of the border” at the “Friends of Science Society” have put together a five-part documentary titled “Climate Catastrophe Cancelled: What You’re Not Being Told About the Science of Climate Change” and you can view or download all five parts (25 minutes total, in Windows Media or Quicktime formats) at their website by clicking here:

Finally, our friend Marlo Lewis, Jr., a Senior Fellow at the Competitive Enterprise Institute, has put together a specific, point-by-point rebuttal to Al Gore’s movie, An Inconvenient Truth, in the form of a FREE downloadable book, a FREE “YouTube” online video, and a FREE downloadable PowerPoint presentation, titled “Inconvenient Truths for Al Gore.” Get all three for FREE at the CEI website by clicking here:

Can you help us get the word out across America and around the world, to counter the wannabe-socialists at MoveOn.org and Avaaz.org?

Small Business with Big Marketing Questions - how to market successfully for my needs?

Tuesday, June 30, 2009 5:08 | Filled in Other - Advertising & Marketing

I have a small business doing Medical Continuing education. As the owner I have tried to handle all important aspects including marketing up to now. I’m at a point now where I’ve added to our website a job board, and will soon being adding email newsletters & featured ad space. I can no longer do a successful job myself, so here are my questions:

1.) If I’m paying someone commision only, what is the average draw they should receive?
2.) Is it better to hire someone part-time within the company or to try to hire an outside marketing firm?
3.) If hiring an outside firm, where do I find them, as I won’t have a lot of work to offer them.

Not sure it matters, but the business is “decentralized” so everyone would work out of their own space/home.

Thanks

Why people pay for email like icontact.com instead of hosting their own?

Monday, June 29, 2009 19:25 | Filled in Other - Advertising & Marketing

There a many software that you can install yourself and not have to pay monthly.

So why people would choose to make a monthly payment instead of just buying a software once and have the same features to send marketing mails?

What are the major difference?

i know there are marketing email companies like:iContact Constant Contact Benchmark Bronto Campaigner Vertical Response MailChimp Stream Send etc..

but there are also great softwares out there that does the same thing.

What i want to know is why people would just waste their money on a monthly service instead of just buying a software once and have the same service.

any input will be great.

thanks
