Most people think that vitamin and mineral supplements are pretty much alike. This is partly due to the health food manufacturers grouping them in one or more pills. The truth however, is very different, and needs to be understood clearly.Vitamins are non-toxic (with a few exceptions) and overdosing merely means possibly "wasting" money, as the excess is excreted easily without damage. So, since vitamins are relatively cheap, by "overdosing" you...more
Logos are everywhere to be seen... rather, we can even call them omnipresent! Wherever we go, we find ourselves literally surrounded by logos. Be it our homes, office, restaurants, market, shopping malls, roads... you name it and it's there. Since the Industrial Revolution, there has been a sea change in the commercial outlook of the world.

Whether you are starting a new business or looking to attract new sales there are a few things you can't afford. Losing potential clients to your competitor and wasting money on ineffective advertising.Unfortunately, these things happen more often than not. So, why do some businesses do so well while others fail? It's not due to more marketing dollars spent. Instead a strategic plan was evoked to produce an effective advertisement.There are many important elements that go into producing an effective ad. First, let me start by saying that coming up with a great ad it isn't rocket-science.

It must exude value in its...more

Luke Jaten is "The Postcard Guy." Need information on his program? I have spoken at great length with one of his closest students. Here is the Postcard Guy report:If you are in any kind of a business, then you need leads. There is no way around it that I know of. The Internet is seems to be the number one way these days to try and conjure them up, but is it the only way? Luke Jaten offers a program that he has put together, blueprinting what he has done for his business, and many others, through the use of post cards, and direct mail.The course sales page that I saw was for around $500 available in installment payments as well.

It has worked for probably a hundred years or more, and will most likely continue for a hundred more.I am not an affiliate of Luke...more
