Welcome to another Sunday with yours truly and thanks so much for letting me be a small part of your day. :~) If you're new today, a warm welcome to you. I hope you'll enjoy the issue. It was a sad week in our little town. Once again, tragedy struck and claimed the life of one of our young people. And once again, it was someone my kids and I knew. Let me tell you, going to a funeral for a teenager really stinks. I'm sure some of you have had the same experience, so you know what I mean. Whitney was a 2005 high school graduate, attending college near Ft. Wayne, Indiana. She was the kind of girl that loved everyone and everyone loved her. Her mom is a teacher at one of the local schools and her dad is an assistant pastor at a church, so most of the town knows the family. She and 7 other college students, along with a teacher, were on their way back to campus Wednesday evening after setting up a banquet hall for scholarship night, when a semi-truck came through the median on the freeway and collided with the van they were in. 4 students and the teacher were pronounced dead at the scene and the other 4 were hospitalized with serious injuries. Whitney's older sister, Carly, who attends the same university, called her mom with the tragic news just minutes before a state trooper arrived at her parent's house. The poor woman was alone when she got word of her daughter's death. Her husband was on a missionary trip to Mississippi, helping rebuild after hurricane Katrina. My son's friend, Matt, who was Whitney's boyfriend of two years, had been planning a big surprise for her for yesterday. He was going to propose to her on what would have been her 19th birthday. Instead of getting engaged, he paid his last respects. The poor guy looked like he wanted to cry, but he didn't while we were at the funeral home. I was at a loss for words and all I could do was hug him. I told him to look around the room and he'd see how much she was loved by everyone. The whole thing was very heart-breaking. This is the third teen in 3 years that died in a car accident who was a friend of my kids. Once again the funeral home was filled with students and teachers saying goodbye to someone whose life ended way too soon. OK, I need to get off that subject. I'm getting teary-eyed again and it's hard to type. On the more pleasant side of life, I found a house that I love and I might buy it. The only thing that's holding me back from making the decision to do so, is the price. It's way more than I intended to spend. But the house is beautiful! It couldn't be any better if I had designed it myself. I'll let you know next week what I decide to do. It's time to let you get on with the rest of the issue. Don't forget to find the adcode below and send in your free ad for next week. I'll see you next Sunday. Until then, have a profitable week! Denise Sponsor Ad When you're tired of wasting time and money on Internet get- rich-quick schemes, and are ready to sit down and do a bit of work to see some real profits, then take a look at the opportunites available at http://www.mom-owned.com, and http://www.mom-owned.com/pips.html. In one day, you can have multiple streams of residual income set up. Do the work, and see results! Feature Article Marketing Magic: More Money in Less Time Copyright Christopher Enders Which is more precious: time or money? If you could have an ample supply of either, but not both, which would you choose? It's a tough question. If you choose money, you may not have the time to enjoy it. If you choose time, how will you get along financially? Since the dawn of the Internet, people have been looking for ways to have BOTH lots of time on their hands and lots money in their wallets. It seems like very few of us have broken that secret code that allows us to make a great living without giving up all of our precious spare time. Like a great magician, a great marketer never reveals the real tricks of the trade...those methods he or she uses to make a great living without sitting at the computer for 16 hours a day. Of course they want to keep their techniques a secret; they'd like to keep all the money to themselves, right? Just like magicians like David Copperfield want a monopoly on magic, Internet millionaires want a monopoly on success. So what about the rest of us? What are we supposed to do? Every day we're bombarded with business opportunities that either rip us off or simply don't work. But we continue to work at it, trying to find that one golden key to easy street. If you have found something that works for you, more power to you. If, like the rest of us, you're still struggling to make your big break, keep looking. Success is out there for people who take the time to sniff it out. Believe it or not, there are money-making systems out there that you really cannot lose with. Even if you fail at the system, you still make money. Best of all, these systems can be worked without huge time or financial commitments. True success systems are complete and turn-key. They bring you website traffic (even if you don't have a site yet), residual income, and lasting success without backbreaking work. Income systems really do exist that allow you to: 1) make a full-time income in one hour per day, and 2) completely eliminate the cost of online advertising and promotions. And, did you know that virtually all successful Internet marketers use the same powerful billing technique? There really is no complicated Internet success bible. If you can harness the power of a few very powerful, yet closely guarded techniques, you can succeed in almost any Internet business. Dig deep, travel far, and do some serious homework, and you'll find the goldmine you're looking for. --------------------------------------------------------- Author Chris Enders uses a billing software that allows small business owners to increase cash-flow, speed receipt of payments, and reduce bad debt by taking checks by hone/fax/Internet.

She asked, "Does the sun rise in the North?" When my brother explained that the sun rises in the East, (and has for sometime), she shook her head and said, "Oh, I don't keep up with that stuff". . . . . . . And to think - SHE votes! ========== I used to work in technical support for a 24/7 call center. One day I got a call from an individual who asked what hours the call center was open. I told him, "The number you dialed is open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week." He responded, "Is that Eastern or Pacific time?" Wanting to end the call quickly, I said, "Uh, Pacific" . . . . . . He ALSO votes! ========== My colleague and I were eating our lunch in our cafeteria, when we overheard one of the administrative assistants talking about the sunburn she got on her weekend drive to the shore. She drove down in a convertible, but "didn't think she'd get sunburned because the car was moving". . . . . . . . . She ALSO votes! ========== My sister has a lifesaving tool in her car. It's designed to cut through a seat belt if she gets trapped. She keeps it in the trunk . . . . . .

The cashier multiplied 2 times 10% and gave us a 20% discount. . . . . . He also votes! ========== I was hanging out with a friend when we saw a woman with a nose ring attached to an earring by a chain. My friend said, "Wouldn't the chain rip out every time she turned her head?" I explained that a person's nose and ear remain the same distance apart no matter which way the head is turned. . . . . . My friend ALSO votes! ========= I couldn't find my luggage at the airport baggage area. So I went to the lost luggage office and told the woman there that my bags never showed up. She smiled and told me not to worry because she was a trained professional and I was in good hands. "Now," she asked me, "has your plane arrived yet?". . . . . . . SHE ALSO votes! ========= While working at a Pizza Parlor I observed a man ordering a small pizza to go. He appeared to be alone and the cook asked him if he would like it cut into 4 pieces or 6. He thought about it for some time before responding. "Just cut it into 4 pieces; I don't think I'm hungry enough to eat 6 . . . . . . Yep, he votes too. ========= Now you know who elects the politicians! Expert Advice Each week I'll publish some tips or advice.

You can cut down on those expenses by "upselling" to those new customers. For example, let's say you're selling a computer with a 15" monitor for $1200. You tell people they can upgrade to a 17" monitor for only $200 more. That's upselling! Your goal is to get more money out of the first sale. Below are ten upselling strategies you can use to increase your profits. 1. Deluxe Upsell - You could sell a basic product and tell people for a little more money they can receive the deluxe edition. 2. Money Upsell - You could offer people the rights to sell the product they are buying from you. You could charge an extra $30 for the reproduction rights. 3. Discount Upsell - If you're selling a product people may order again in the future like shaving gel, you could offer them a second can at a discount. 4. Time Upsell - If you're selling a product or service people subscribe to, like a magazine, you could tell them if they subscribe for two years instead of one, they can get half off the cover price. 5. Quantity Upsell - This is similar to the discount upsell. The only difference is you increase the discount by how many products they order. If they order 3 it's a 10% discount, if they order 5 it's a 15% discount. 6. Package Upsell - When you're selling a product you could offer similar products in a package deal. Tell people the other products are cheaper with the package deal versus purchasing them separately. 7. Affiliate Upsell - When you're selling a product you could offer someone else's product as an upsell. You would have to make a commission on the product in order to profit. 8. Free Upsell - You could offer a free sample or trial of your product (your first sale would be free) and then tell people if they order the full version right now they will get a discount. 9. Extra Upsell - There are many things you could charge extra for at the time of sale. It could be gift wrapping, imprinting, custom designs, etc. 10. Extended Upsell - If your product comes with a warranty, you could ask people if they would like to extend the warranty one more year for only $30. You can use one, or all, of these strategies to increase your profits at the point of sale. Use your imagination to come up with other upsell strategies, too.
