Get Your Foot In The Door Through Consignment
by Kevin Nunley
http://DrNunley.com
It is hard to get a product in stores. Retailers have limited
display space and don't like to make room for companies
with only one item.
Consignment can help you get your foot in the door.
Because the retailer doesn't have to pay for your product
until it sells, they don't have money tied up in inventory.
On the down side, store managers won't push consignment
items as hard as they will items that have to be paid for in
one or two months.
Your first product may have to be especially good, carry a
great price, and have eye-catching packaging to get
attention tucked away in a back corner of the store.
Once your product starts to sell, switch to 60 to 90 days
payment. Later you can jump up to 30 days. By then your
product will have become a proven winner and you will
have earned your place on retail shelves.

Traveling Abroad? Stay in Touch Without Paying Too Much
by Paul Nisenbaum
http://www.GlobalPhoneWiz.com
Did you know you can rent a global cell phone for as little as
69 cents per day? And pay as low as 39 cents per minute to call
the USA or Canada?
Yep, it's true. If you have ever traveled internationally, you
know how expensive it can be to call home. Those who spend time
traveling abroad for business or pleasure still need to stay in
touch, but traditional cell phones don't always work for this
purpose. Global cell phones are a better choice, but there is a
lot you need to know before you buy one of these phones or sign
up for service. Plus, some plans have free incoming calls!
Global cell phone costs vary around the globe, because even with
the increasing popularity of cellular phones and technological
advances, different countries have different cell phone
standards. There are many different cell networks around the
globe, and some countries have limited cell access or no access
at all. Knowing the right questions to ask and following the
advice of an expert can save you a lot of money.
For example, one international cell phone rental company may have
access to local rates in England, whereas another company may
not. Being aware of little facts like these can save you $2.00
per minute.
But let's face it. International cell phones, rates, satellite
phones, and global calling rates just aren't subjects that most
of us know much about. Thankfully, there are people out there
who DO know a lot about this and are willing to lend us novices a
hand. We just have to be willing to do a little research, find
some help, and ask those pesky questions.
For example, when traveling to Europe, to Israel, to Japan, or
on a cruise, is an international cell phone or satellite phone
your best option? Should you just get a calling card? Should
you buy or rent the equipment? Well, it all depends on your
specific needs and circumstances. Talking to an expert and
telling them about your needs is the only way to get the best
rates.
So how much can you save? Well, when traveling by ship, callers
often end up paying $8-12 per minute for ship-to-shore calls.
However, asking the right questions can save you a lot of money
on these rates and many more. Believe it or not, you can pay as
little as $1.75 per minute. And all it took was getting the
right advice.

Using Email To Mine Your Database
by Kevin Nunley
http://DrNunley.com
A good prospect database can be the key to riches. This is
especially true if you can divide your database into key
groups. You might have different lists of people who buy
several items at a time, people who always respond to lower
prices, and people who need a certain item replenished from
time to time.
A while back I talked at length with Internet veteran Rob Bell.
With programming chops like I can only dream about, Rob
figured out a way to interface autoresponders with web
site forms and a database.
When someone visits his site ( http://webcontactpro.com ),
he uses forms to get their info. This data is automatically
plugged into a database. He can sort for particular kinds of
prospects, then broadcast an email sales letter carefully
tailored for that specific group.
One especially simple way to get this effect is to offer not
one, but three email newsletters. Direct each one to major
groups of customers. Describe each on your website and
ask visitors to subscribe to one or more. You can be sure
those who do are very interested customers who are now on
a list targeting at least one of their major interests.
