=====================================
Summer Doldrums
by Bob Osgoodby
=====================================
Warm-weather months are a fun and busy time. It's time to cleanup
the barbie, plant your flowers, and maybe take a trip to the
beach. The cold weather is gone and the lazy, hazy days of
summer are upon us. It just seems that so many things have been
added to our plate, we have little time for anything else.
But wait! Does that include the business you have worked so hard
on during the winter? Unfortunately for some it does. It's like
the race car driver, who speeds around the track and gets a lead
of his competition, but then decides to coast the last few laps.
Guess what - he is going to be passed.
A lot of people virtually take the summer off from their online
business, and this is an opportunity for you. While they are
taking 2 steps back, you can leapfrog over them and get the
customers they might have gotten.
This is not a new phenomenon, and is as old as the web itself.
Online business typically slows down during the summer months.
But who is slowing down? It is usually those who work the web
part-time in the evening. Now when it gets dark early, this is
easy. But when the days are longer, it seems there just isn't
enough time to do everything else, and also take care of
business.
If you are serious about developing your online business, you
must have the discipline it takes to continue. It's awfully easy
to think you'll get it done tomorrow, but unfortunately, your
customers will not wait for you to get motivated.
Rose Hay <http://teamvisionary.com/members/RHay>
sums it up
beautifully in her ads. She says "Remember, an Opportunity
Doesn't Go Away, It Just Goes To Someone Else." How true -
here
is someone who has her act together, and will capitalize on the
inaction of others.
Now is the time to renew your marketing efforts. Can you combine
those lazy, hazy days with a renewed effort? If you can, the
lost opportunities of others might just come your way.
Might you slow down a bit? Sure, if you do it right, and
remember your short term and long term goals. Maybe you should
investigate advertising in publications you hadn't tried in the
past. You should consider running multiple ads with different
copy in the ones you are already using. How about using an
auto-responder in those ads. This will ensure you get back to an
inquiry right away, and you can do the follow-up at your leisure.
Why not put a form on your website(s) to handle inquiries?
Through the use of checkboxes, you can immediately categorize
your potential customers requests. By using a mail package such
as Eudora, you can automatically respond with a "canned"
response that is tailored to their request.
Will some of your prospects also be running at a slower speed?
Of course, and this is why you must redouble your efforts.
Don't forget that thousands upon thousands of new prospects get
web access every day. They are hungry for information, and might
just be looking for the type of opportunity you offer. These
"Internet Newbies" are like a fertile field that you can
harvest
during the summer. Bitten by the prospect of earning money on
the Net, they are viable candidates that you will lose if you
don't vigorously pursue them.
I know that with press of things we have to do it is easy to
slack off. Much of your competition will succumb to those
"Summer Doldrums", and if you take advantage of their
inactivity,
you just might be pleasantly surprised at the results.

-YOU
DESERVE IT-
DON'T DO MORNINGS
Tom had this problem of getting
up late in the morning and was
always late for work. His boss
was mad at him and threatened
to fire him if he didn't do something
about it.
So Tom went to his doctor who
gave him a pill and told him to
take it before he went to bed.
Tom slept very well, in fact, he
woke up before the alarm went
off. He had a leisurely breakfast
and drove cheerfully to work.
"Boss," he said, "the pill actually
worked!"
"That's all fine" said the boss, "but
where were you yesterday?"

6.) HOT BIZ TIP
__________
"Why do my Fonts looks Weird
on my Web page?" By Dianne Reuby
=============================================
The only fonts that will display correctly on your web page are
those which your visitor already has on *their* computer.
In other words if *you* use a beautiful fancy font called
'Sheer Elegance', and your reader does not have that installed
on *their* computer, they'll see something completely
different. Maybe even a complete mess. So Fonts that are
usually installed with Windows are a fairly safe choice for you
to use.
Times New Roman is usually the default browser setting.
Georgia and Courier New are two other serif fonts (with those
little tops and tails to the letters).
Sans-serif fonts (without the tops and tails) usually include
Arial, Verdana, Trebuchet, and Comic Sans.
Impact! is a very heavy sans-serif type suitable for headlines.
All this will make sense when you see the example I've created
at my Website at <http://www.firstwebbuilder.co.uk/nc.html>
Dianne Reuby is the co-author of 'First Website Builder'
at <http://newbieclub.com/builder>

A warm welcome to all of our New Subscribers.
First of all, we now have ALL NEW
SIZZLIN' SUMMER ADVERTISING SPECIALS.
So, check it out at:
http://www.online-exchange.com/advertising.htm
I have so much to tell you this week, I just
don't know where to start. As I stated a couple
weeks ago, MarketingTrendz was on the verge of
expanding. We upgraded our server & got some
new domains to begin our expansion. Both
myself and Sara have been working around the
clock just to get everything in place and uniformed
before we even begin the expansion. It sure has been
tons of work, but it feels great to get so much done.
Some of our sites have a brand new look too.
I would like to invite you to tour our new sites.
It will only take a few minutes of your time, and you'll
never know what you might find. If something is of
interest to you, just bookmark it and that way you
can come back to it whenever you want:
http://www.ezinetrendz.com
http://www.parentstime-out.com
http://www.scaminator.com
http://www.scaminator.com/cobra.htm
http://www.online-exchange.com
Yes, that's right. The OnLine Exchange site has
a whole new look. So make sure you visit that one, too.
Also, as I mentioned in a lengthy editorial on Monday,
we are preparing to launch our BizOpp Exchange on
July 1, 2002. So we need all businesses who would
like to submit a listing to hurry up and do so now,
while there are top listings available! It is only
$50 for a 6 month listing. And your business will
get TONS of exposure:
