What will you say?

“What will you say” is a strange title for a blog post, but it will make sense by the time you have finished reading…


Have you ever played with Google Search, typing in different phrases to see what is being said about different topics? Every once in a while I will, in part for entertainment and in part for research. It can be quite an eye opening experience.
For example, when you type in the phrase “affiliate marketing is scam” on my computer it says there is about About 1,080,000 results or how about “affiliate marketing is a waste of time” ( I have heard that one quite often) according to Google there are about 1,690,00 results. That is a lot of unhappy people folks

Success Isn’t Everything

Success isn’t everything, and in fact, it only happens for a mere moment in time; then it’s gone, forever. If it’s the only thing you live for, your life is not going to be all it can be.
If you go to any sales training seminar, you’ll hear over and over again that you have to set goals, that you have to have a success-driven attitude.
You hear that success is everything. You need to concentrate completely on reaching your goal. Nothing can be allowed to get in the way: Not family. Not friends. Not sleep. Not recreation. Not health….
What a foolish way to live! If you give up all these to reach your goal, in other words, to win, you won’t have much 

Three Email Tracking Services for Marketers

Do you know what email tracking is? Email tracking is a way to monitor the email delivery sent to another person. For those of you in the know, I’m sure you have your favorite or best email tracking service or software, but to those of you who are not familiar with this kind of service then read on..oh and even though you might have a favorite, maybe one of these three tools will interest you.

I just read an article via a Alexis Kleinman who wrote an article back in February this year ( 2014) where she was horrified by a new “app” The application in question is a Google extension is  called Streak and when installed it lets you know when someone has read an email you sent in other words it is an email tracking system.  Streak is considered a productivity tool that you can get from the Google webstore and I have to say that it is pretty impressive! Some of its attributes are 
- keep track of status, notes and details of each customer.
- see every email between a customer and your team, right in your inbox
-schedule those crucial emails for the times when they’ll have the most impact
-and of course  it has the ability to track emails in your inbox. 
I have to say that while I can understand  a bit of concern, I am still trying to find out why it is horrifying
