I know it's been a while since I posted to this blog. I have been swamped with other tasks as I'm sure you can understand if you're also in the business of internet marketing. Blogs are probably the first thing to get put on the virtual back-burner in this biz, unless of course you specialize in blog marketing. Or it could be that I'm just not cut out for keeping up with an online diary. Well, I

Yeah, you heard me. Don't get me wrong. My email list provides my bread and butter. But man! What a hassle sometimes. Since I got involved with sponsoring the Easter JV Give-Away my email list has grown over a thousand new subscribers. That's great, isn't it? Actually it is. It means I'm reaching my audience more effectively.I had put most everything in place pretty well, utilizing my best

What would you most like to get out of BidMama? Here's a list of typical services you might find scattered around the web.Articles?Downloads? Software Reviews? Discussion Forum? Advertising?

I got an email last night from someone who reminded me of myself. Maybe, you can relate to this too? By the way, I hope the writer of that email doesn't mind my sharing this but the story sounds all too familiar and this is how it goes...Too much time, too much money, spent on this dream of online success with not much to show for it.I've mentioned before that my personal problem is staying

Hi Everyone! Just a couple things as I'm preparing for the transition to the soon-to-be BidMama site. I sent out the January newsletter to subscribers. However, I'm currently testing new email software and haven't quite mastered the functionality of the new system, including the importing of emails in my database. Soooo, if you're getting emails but you're no longer subscribed or you never were,

Everything about running your own business is time-consuming! Everything. I have been steadily working to roll-out the launch on BidMama.com all month now, and hope to see the reality of it coming together by November 1. This time, I have the help of a top computer programmer. So, I think the functionality BidMama provides will amaze everyone, including myself.My plans for bohemiattic are to keep

Affiliates, a popular topic with me lately, because I'm an obsessed woman on a mission. This post could go into my case study updates but there's been a new wrench thrown in for good measure.

One of my Adland Pro friends has begun an experiment which I think has idea buzz potential. There are 17,000 members at AdlandPro. It's free to join and advertise as well as participate in forum discussion groups. Here's a link to Kirk's forum for all the details on his experiment. Pass it on.

Well, there for a bit I went away on 'vacation' to Arizona (hidden link in title again- a couple caught the last ones). It was actually a roadtrip from Dallas to Tucson with our 4 kids piled in the SUV for a weeklong excursion including a fun-filled site-seeing agenda for each day. (Woo-hoo.) Everything was uphill.

I have been working hard at keeping up with the advice I've received via email. So, this means I have been writing articles to promote my Clickbank project. I took a slight detour today to check out the pulse on other auction formats, namely Overstock.I did a little research on Yahoo! auctions too but they aren't as up as they used to be. I guess you could look at this as good news for sellers in

Sounds sort of revolutionary doesn't it?I've been a little lazy today. Instead of promoting and networking, I fiddled and faddled with non-critical tasks. If I were the type of person to offer excuses, I might blame it on the near 100 degree heat, or the high pollen count, mold spores and ultraviolet rays we felt today in Texas, as well as, the fact that we haven't had any rain in forever.

Very interesting thing happened last night (Sunday). I'm on a mailing list for an Internet marketer who will remain nameless. This is unrelated to other marketing projects with which I'm currently involved. He sent out a safelist announcement to his members last night inviting them to send out postings to be emailed to his group, ie "Safelist". I participated with a posting, as well as in the

Wow! I have received even more feedback from my initial plea for help. I had chosen to take the greater part of the weekend away from working to spend with my kids. So, I have not sent any more emails out since my last posting. There truly are people out there who care, and this evening I met one when I received an email with even more advice that I'll be taking to heart. The first of which

I had mentioned in my last post that I'd give a few more free ad links. First, I wanted to mention that the advice I received from my experiment in my last post gave me two directions to begin with. One involves writing articles, which I'm working on. The second was to search out JV partnerships. There are a few guidelines in doing this and presenting yourself professionally. I have some

Hi again,Well, as a Clickbank newbie, I'm learning some interesting things about Clickbank. For instance, once you've submitted your product, you must first make a sale before you're listed in the Clickbank Marketplace. But they make this fairly easy, allowing you to purchase from yourself once. So, having done that, I come to find out that the Clickbank Marketplace is only updated once a week.

The two men were killed when their race car left the track, spun to a grassy area and collided with a retaining wall. The vehicle made a

Cable Tv has long been considering ways in which they could create an interactive experience for viewers. Most plans fell to the wayside and were not taken seriously due to lack of interest, as well as, a surge in more profitable sectors including digital cable, high-speed Internet, and telephony. Any interest that was given to Interactive Television (ITV) centered around shopping. Analysts such

Well, a million things have come up as is often the case: Step-sister's wedding shower, son's school play, SAT testing, trade show appearance, birthday celebrations for my sister, best friend, son, mother and neighbor, allergies so horrific that the doctor was convinced it was strep throat, and the list goes on.

Well, it has been a while since I have touched base with my readers. As you know, I have been super busy, but I did not realize that it had been a whole month, and for that I apologize. My hubby gave me a little challenge to raise money online for a project we took on. I accepted the challenge, and am pleased to say that I raised $2061.08 in 9 days of effort.

NEW YORK (CNN/Money) - Ohio residents selling goods on eBay would have to get a license and be bonded under a law set to go into effect May 2, although authors of the legislation vow to make changes before that date to exempt individuals.The Cleveland Plain Dealer reported that the law, signed by Gov. Robert Taft on Feb. 1, was meant to insure that auctioneers were abiding by the established

Going Postal The U.S. Postal Service forwarded a recommendation for a 5 to 6% rate increase to the Postal Board of Governors on Monday, said Postmaster General John E. Potter. The postmaster said the increase would be necessary unless there is a change made to a new law calling for the establishment of a $3.1 billion escrow account that affects the postal service's retirement system. Otherwise,

By Gary HendricksonOnce you've created the best possible title for your item, you will move on to writing your auction description. Here, you have more space to give a detailed description of the item you are selling in the body of your auction. While the photo and title are what get a person interested in your auction and bringing them to your listing, it's your description that is going to have

Ebay.com gets over 1.5 billion page views every month-that means ebay takes care of the single biggest problem all internet business owners face-traffic.With over 9,000 new users registering on ebay every day there’s not likely to be a slow down to your business-if you know how to get started.

No one will dispute the intense marketing power of partnering with the eBay platform for fast results. However, there has been some major debate over the usefulness of the eBay store feature since the recent rise in pricing for this selling option.

A Message from Bill Cobb Since becoming the President of eBay North America in December, I've spent a lot of time listening to you, our Community. There's a lot on your minds right now. I've been taking it all in and thinking hard about how we can make sure eBay remains a fun, safe place to trade, and a prosperous home for our many dedicated sellers. One of the issues I've heard a lot about is

Realizing that I'm due for a break in my day, I'm reminded of one of my all-time favorite business jokes which I'd like to share here and now with you. Hope you like it... Reasons to embrace change: Start with a cage containing five monkeys. Inside the cage, hang a banana on a string and place a set of stairs under it. Before long, a monkey will go to the stairs and start to climb towards the

Dear eBay Seller, Recently, we announced fee changes taking effect on February 18th and affecting certain optional listing upgrades on eBay.com, the subscription fee for a Basic eBay Store, and Final Value Fees on Store Inventory Format listings.

It's Wednesday, and I feel like a good ranting. Just to be fair I'd like to start off with some positives for using UPS. For one, they are generally more cost-effective on larger items--- when the packaging is yours. They insure items for up to $100 for no additional charge. If you use the mailbox services through their store locations, it is treated as an address not as a post office box (though

Just thought you might be interested to know that two days after posting record earnings and revenue, eBay sent out emails on Wednesday and Thursday noting that it is substantially raising fees. eBay has chosen to raise selling fees, which in turn will raise costs for buyers. This isn't the first time that eBay has upset "the community" with changes. Around this time last year, eBay raised fees

Ah... New Years! Time again for resolutions. Those things we set out to do and never resolve to actually stick with. Many New Years resolutions are made tongue-in-cheek (perhaps from guilt?), while others with good intentions. But both are lacking the conviction required to pull them off. Maybe, we'd do better to refer to our resolutions as goals and program ourselves to stay focused. I recently

I've been focused on the blog thing here of late. Mainly because I read an excellent article, "Why Marketers Should Blog". Blogs have been around for years but are quickly becoming fashionable, especially in the business and marketing world. This surge to mainstream acceptance is partly due to the ease recently attributed to blogging. Web logging has evolved from the first bulletins (we didn't
