			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Stamp out ugly marketing emails! </p>
<p>A properly formatted email message will be no more than 65 digits<br />
in width including spaces. This is especially true with text<br />
emails.</p>
<p>Remember even if you send an HTML email, the recipient might be<br />
receiving your messages as text only.</p>
<p>If not formatted properly, what appears great when you send it<br />
may come to them as one long string of text without sentence or<br />
paragraph breaks, or it may have some very long and very short<br />
lines in it.</p>
<p>Some folks have a problem formatting emails and get frustrated<br />
trying to do it.</p>
<p>Solution; Use email formatting software that does it all<br />
automatically in a few seconds. I give away a free email<br />
formatting software at a link below.</p>
<p>It works great! Just write your message in the software text<br />
window, or copy/paste your prewritten message into the text<br />
window from notepad, or another source where your message<br />
is in text (.txt), format.</p>
<p>Then just choose the width you want and click FORMAT. It&#8217;s that<br />
quick and simple.</p>
<p>Now that your email is properly formatted you can copy/paste it<br />
into your autoresponder, email compose, notepad, or wherever.</p>
<p>This blog post is formatted at 65 digits as an example. </p>
<p>No contact info is required to download the free software found<br />
in the left column at the link below.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Think Like a Merchant</p>
<p>Web Marketers just as any business owner will do better keeping<br />
costs down and maximizing profits when they adjust their thought<br />
process to see things through the eyes of a merchant.</p>
<p>The thought here is that most web marketers do not come from a<br />
business owner background and thus primarily think as a consumer<br />
does instead of as a business owner.</p>
<p>There is a big difference between the mindset of a merchant and a<br />
consumer and it can make a big difference between success and<br />
failure.</p>
<p>As consumers, we typically look at a product and make our<br />
purchase decision on a desire (I want one of those!), or a value<br />
basis. Is it worth this price? Can I get it cheaper elsehwere?<br />
What&#8217;s the value of service or support?<br />
 <br />
Once they&#8217;ve decided they need or desire a product consumers<br />
primary thoughts are to buy instantly on impulse because they<br />
believe the price is fair just as it is, or may shop around for a<br />
better price.</p>
<p>How much it costs as opposed to how profitable it can be is the<br />
primary value purchase determination.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s pretty much the same thought process we all go through when<br />
shopping for non web business related products.</p>
<p>How profitable can this be instead of how much it costs is the<br />
first thought of the merchant.</p>
<p>When a person with a merchant mindset looks at a product the<br />
first thoughts are; How much money will I make if I purchase this<br />
product? Can I buy these wholesale? Do I get PLR, resell, or<br />
master resell rights? Does this product have an affiliate program<br />
that can be profitable for me? Will using this product increase<br />
the profitability of my web site, my blog, etc.? Will this product <br />
produce web traffic or leads? Will more people opt in to my list?<br />
 <br />
Just having a desire is not a good enough reason to buy for<br />
business purposes. Price, though an important factor, is not a<br />
primary consideration for the merchant.</p>
<p>The timing of the purchase is as soon as the merchant can answer<br />
these questions above and some more below. They may need to do a<br />
little market research, or they may just know it&#8217;s something that<br />
can produce profits for them.</p>
<p>The merchant may not even want the product for his own use.<br />
Again, first and foremost isn&#8217;t use, but profitability. If using<br />
the product can be used to produce profits then it gets further<br />
consideration.</p>
<p>The merchants thought process is about return on investment (ROI).<br />
Additional questions for the merchant include;  What marketing<br />
strategy would I employ? How can I best market this product? What<br />
will it cost to market this product?  Does this fit with my<br />
product mix or would I offer it as a standalone?<br />
 <br />
Basicly the big question needs to be answered; Does time and<br />
effort expended along with promotional expenses and price of the<br />
product make this product a worthwhile investment?</p>
<p>We&#8217;re all consumers at times, making &#8220;smart&#8221; purchase decisions<br />
are important in all areas of our lives, but success doing<br />
business requires looking at all business related<br />
purchases through the eyes of a merchant.</p>
<p>Think like a merchant!</p>
