Shockingly Effective Marketing

Mon, 12 Oct 2009 05:45:00 GMT

This is just plain effective. Shockingly effective.

Are you at the point you are sick to death of hearing about
social media?

Maybe you�re even wondering what the big deal is.

Well, I�ve got news for you�

I don�t blame you if you might be laboring
under the mistaken impression that Facebook
is some dinosaur of social media not worth caring about.

I used to feel that way too�until I saw this:

Watch This. Read This. You�ll Soon Understand

It�s shockingly effective.

And access to this may not last long, because quite honestly they
could be selling this for quite a bit�but more than that,
they could soon have everybody and their uncle DOING this.

Obviously they aren�t worried about it�because this
is being freely given as a gift.

Pretty cool actually, and it says a lot about the kind
of guys these are.

But aside from all the warm fuzzy feelings about that,
here are three reasons you should be leaping into
action to DO this for your business�

1. You can create a tidal wave of traffic generation
without spending a penny.
2. You can MONETIZE the traffic very easily, simply
by following the strategies they explain.
3. You will build such an unshakable presence online,
your competition will be scratching their heads,
trying to figure out how you outdistanced them
so fast�and so permanently.

I have to be blunt�you�d be crazy not to scoop this up and put it to work for you.
Especially since they lay it out all step-by-step. It�s so easy to follow, a total
non-techie can easily do this.

The Easiest Way To Generate Traffic And $$

OK, that�s it for now. I sincerely hope you�ll take the time to
watch this short video and grab the report. It�s worth everything to
your business and success.

Talk again soon,

Close to Any Big Dogs besides Thomas?

Sun, 11 Oct 2009 04:56:33 GMT

Know any Big Dogs? Like to to be close to one?

Think about this for a minute�

If you could spend some time with the
biggest �Influencer� in your niche, who
would it be?

And more than that, think about how valuable
it would be to your business to have them as
someone who is actually interested in what you
have to say.

Imagine for a moment how much impact this
could have on your business�and then multiply
it by five, or ten, or even fifteen.

It�s not a dream or a pretend fantasy. It can
be totally REAL when you do this�

Connect With Your Influencers This Way

I�m not kidding, this is like having an open
invitation to spend some time with the big dogs
of your market.

And the really awesome thing is, if you do
this the right way, you could actually end up
working with them or even having them promote
YOUR stuff!

Here�s How It Works�

This incredibly smart guy, Robert Grant, is going to
show you exactly how to do this. In fact, he isn�t
talking about theory here�he and his business
partner Ian David Chapman are already doing this
at an incredibly high level

Not only is Robert going to detail exactly how you
do this, he is GIVING it to you today�no
strings�no kidding.

Oh, and one more thing.

He is also going to tell you how to turn this
kind of rapport and relationship into (wait for
It) income!

Get the whole story here

I�m still shaking my head over how brilliant this is.

You definitely want to give this a few minutes to
see how this can work for you.

To your success,

Colm C. Maher 1 905 372 9111

P.S. If you do this the WRONG way, you can do yourself
more harm than good. So don�t rush off trying to do this without
hearing what Robert has to say.

I want Proof--How about You

Fri, 09 Oct 2009 07:56:22 GMT

I want Proof, How about You?

You know how folks are always saying their stuff
works like gangbusters�but they don�t have any
actual PROOF?

I hate that, don�t you?

But these guys really have my attention with this
because it erases any scrap of doubt�

Here�s The Proof

I swear my blood pressure went up ten notches
when I watched this and read their report�because
this is so freaking awesome my heart was racing!

Seriously, I don�t know why they are giving this
away instead of selling it, but they are. They
completely cover 10 ways you�re leaving a load of
cashola on the table if you don�t do this ONE thing
in Facebook.

I felt kinda dumb actually when I realized how
important this is. I had to ask myself, �Why in
the heck haven�t I been doing this?�

Don�t Be Dumb�Do This!

I mean just item #6 in their report is enough
to get your attention. But I don�t want to steal
their thunder�you really need to read the whole
thing for yourself.

In fact I printed the whole thing
out and have already gone through it three times
with a yellow highlighter!

See It. Read It. DO It�Now!

I seriously advise you to do this too.

If you don�t, you�re going to find yourself eating
the dust of your competition who DOES.

All the content Robert and Ian are giving away is
top notch, but in my humble opinion, this is the best yet.

Enjoy!

P.S. If you�ve been thinking your email open rates are suffering

Social Media Marketing the RIGHT Way

A Real Health and Wellness Secret

Thu, 01 Oct 2009 04:10:15 GMT

A Real Health and Wellness Secret

There is an enormous secret across the whole spectrum of health care in all countries and that is the importance of glutathione in your body. Nobody talks about it, most health professional know only tiny bits about it and most know nothing at all. Some medical researchers know lots about it but their research writing is far too complicated for the average person. Glutathione needs somebody like Oprah to let people in on this great secret.

Why is glutathione so important? Glutathione is a major component of your immune system which has a lot to do with maintaining your health and keeping you free from disease. Glutathione levels in your body also has a lot to do with how well you age and how long you live. It can also have a lot to do with athletic performance. The impact of high glutathione levels can sound like snake oil because glutathione is in every cell of the body so it has a pervasive impact. When glutathione levels are low, you are on a downward spiral towards disease and death.

Dr Wulf Droge, the world renowned research scientist with a background in cancer, AIDS and Aging research, in his new book called "Avoiding the First Cause of Death" mentions high glutathione levels as one of the vital elements in living a long and healthy life. He recommends daily exercise combined with whey protein isolate as one of the key secrets to longevity. I believe the book is the scientific support for his personally designed product Immunocal Platinum. Dr Droge is not a self appointed expert in this field: he is the expert. Do a name search on Bing or Google and you will find over 250 published articles by him in peer reviewed medical journals---He is the Wayne Gretsky of published research.

Why is something this important not well known? Up until recently, there has been basically nothing the average person could do to raise his or her glutathione levels so simply knowing about glutathione doesn't help you much if there's nothing you could do about it. Now that has changed. There is a totally natural whey protein isolate powder called Immunocal that has been clinically proven to raise your glutathione levels. It's in the PDR in the USA and the CPS in Canada so it is a totally legit medical product that you don't need a prescription to take. It's a must have product for anyone who is proactive in managing their own state of health and wellness. More information at

Obesity and Health and Wellness

Fri, 18 Sep 2009 08:25:29 GMT

Obesity and Health and Wellness

There is a lot of talk in the USA about health insurance these days spurred by the spiralling costs of health care. Apparently, the cost of health care in the US is roughly double the European costs and American are not any healthier because of it. Change is definitely necessary in the health care system to fix this out of control system but that's not all.

More Americans are overweight than any other country on Planet Earth. I remember going to Florida 25 years ago and seeing all these old guys with beer bellies walkin along the beach. I felt really at home there because my beer belly was right in style.

Obesity is behind the health care crisis because obesity leads directly to diseases such as diabetes, heart disease and many other diseases. This increases costs. What's behind weight issues: the food industry. If you think taking on the health insurance industry is tough, the food industry is a lot bigger and tougher. The processed foods, snack foods and pops, fast food and fast food mega meals are all at the root of the biggest health and wellness crisis in America ever.

History records that the mighty Roman Empire fell because of lead poisoning. All the leaders of society drank their wine from lead goblets which essentially poisoned them. What happens when a society loses leaders early in life? It fades. Could the food industry being doing the job of the lead goblet makers in Roman times?

Are You a Potato Chip Head?

Fri, 11 Sep 2009 08:48:22 GMT

Are You a Potato Chip Head?

Potato chips are addictive and full of fat so why do we crave them?

Potato chips are so important to the junk food business, that they lend their name to the so called "potato chip marketing equation". These means that 90% of your sales go to 10% of the people. The second part of this equation also states that it's much easier to sell to an existing customer than sell to a new customer. This means in a nutshell, that people who are probably already overweight are being directly targeted via flashy ads on TV and elsewhere to eat more junk food which means they gain more weight.

As you consume real food the body automatically says "enough is enough, I want something different" For junk food, the chemical flavouring have been altered so they no one can eat just one. This is built in over consumption and is designed to increase sales and profits for the junk food business. Unfortunately, it means less quality of life and higher health care costs for the individual as well as the State.

To read more about the the Food Industry and health and wellness pick up of copy of Paul Zane Pilser's book "The New Wellness Revolution".

Next time you eat potato chips ask yourself, am I a target of "Potato Chip Marketing". Am I a victim?

I am an old potao chip junkie who is reforming. It's a bit like cigarettes and beer--it's hard habit to break especially watching the 8 o'clock movie without chips.

Chronic Illness Recovery Suggestions

Dr Bill Code M.D. was diagnosed with MS in 1996 when he was 42. He found little help from the conventional health system which basically told him to go home and rest. Luckily for him he was much more proactive than that and began looking at nutritional alternatives. In Dr Code's book "Who's in Control of your MS" ISBN 0-9737918-0-2 he discusses his journey with MS.

Based on his experiences, Dr Code suggests these 10 Top Choices for Chronic Illness:

1. Daily Omega -3 Fat Intake

2. 4000 IU of Vitamin D daily

3. One good Multi Vitamin/Mineral Daily (must contain folic acid, B6)

4. Use of digestive enzymes and daily probiotics

Sept 9/09 National Fetal Alcohol Syndrome Day

What are the facts about FASD?

FASD is the leading known preventable cause of mental retardation and birth defects, and a leading known cause of learning disabilities.
FASD affects 1 in 100 infants each year, more than autism, and downs syndrome, cerebral palsy, cystic fibrosis, spina bifida and sudden infant death syndrome combined.
FASD can affect anyone regardless of ethnicity, income or educational level.
FAS and FASD are not genetic disorders. Women with FAS or affected by FASD have healthy babies if they do not drink alcohol during their pregnancy.

Is any kind of alcohol safe to drink during pregnancy?

No. Any kind of alcohol can harm your growing baby. That includes beer, wine, wine coolers, liquor and mixed drinks. A 12-ounce beer, a 4-ounce glass of wine and a 1-ounce shot of liquor or distilled spirits have the same amount of alcohol.

Fund Raising To donate and get more information http://www.nofas.org/default.aspx

July 21 - NOFAS has kicked off a 50-day fundraising drive to raise $9,909 by FASD Awareness Day on September 9, 2009. Proceeds will go towards FASD awareness day activities and to increase outreach and support to FASD families.

Second Hand Smoke

Mon, 07 Sep 2009 06:47:27 GMT

Second Hand Smoke

A single cigarette can produce smoke for about 12 minutes and the person smoking this cigarette could actually inhale only about 30 seconds of this smoke. The rest is offered up to the rest of us to breathe. At $5.00 per package of 20 that's about 10 minutes of so called pleasure. At one pack a day that's $35 per week for just over one hour of real smoke. The health problems associated with inhaling of smoke are now beyond question but what about the non smokers who are in proximity to those that smoke?

Second hand smoke is all aound us, on the street, at work, in the park. It's very hard to avoid it even if you are just taking your dog for a walk. Considering second hand smoke contains over 4000 chemicals, this should be some cause for alarm because no amount of second hand smoke is acceptable. Some of those chemicals include carbon monoxide (car exhaust), ammonia (window cleaners), cadium (batteries) and arsenic (poison). That's only 4 of them.

In Canada, about 1,000 people per year die from second hand smoke. In the USA, 3,400 people per year die. There are many incidences of non smoking spouses dying as a result of the other spouse smoking. In addition, there are literally thousands of other medical complications that are caused by second hand smoke. Many of these complications with adults and children arise from smoking in the home since it is a confined space. According the the American Lung Association, toxity in the home can be 8x higher in a home where the parents smoke inside the home compared to parents who only smoke outside the home.

Eating and Time of Day

Sun, 06 Sep 2009 09:33:40 GMT

Time of Day and Eating

Researchers at Northwestern University. IL have published an experiment that seems to prove what some experts have argued for years: If you eat late in the evening, you will gain weight. This study with mice appears to confirm this opinion.

Researchers undertook to do the study because they had noticed that shift workers were often overweight. Could it be that a person's circadian system was being disrupted? The circadian system is well known to effect when we sleep, so could it also have something to do with what happens when we eat at odd times?

Research with mice seems to confirm that eating at the wrong time of day can have a big impact on your weight. This conflicts with previous studies that suggest a calorie is still a calorie no matter what time of day it is. This study suggests otherwise. The mice that were fed during the day, when they were supposed to be sleeping gained more than twice the weight of the mice who were able to eat as much as they like during the normal awake period at night. The wrong time eaters also gained more fat content.

This study should be some cause for concern not only for shift workers but also for late night snackers who can often consume a day's worth of calories in one bowlful of snack food and a pop/beer. The good news is that people who eat at the right time can definitely help themselves in maintaining weight levels or losing weight.

Drugs in Municipal Water Supply

Sat, 05 Sep 2009 05:19:39 GMT

Drugs in Municipal Drinking Water

Based disturbing evidence prompted in part by news articles from the Associated Press, some municipalties in the USA have voluntary tested their water supply. While much of what has been discovered shows that pharmaceutical drugs and presumably illegal drugs are finding their way into the water supply, the results show that these quantities are very minute. Pharmaceutical companies are obviously taking the position that the quantities are too low to have an impact on human health. What else could you expect them to say?

To quote form the Associated Press

" Chicago, for example, found a cholesterol medication and a nicotine derivative. Many cities found the anti-convulsant carbamazepine. Officials in one of those communities, Colorado Springs, say they detected five pharmaceuticals in all, including a tranquilizer and a hormone."

America cities which have tested the water and found no evidence of drug contamination are Seattle, Boston and Phoenix plus five other cities. However, the vast majority of America and Canadian cities have not tested their water. Should we be concerned, after all, these are very small levels? According to researchers,

Researchers are finding evidence that even extremely diluted concentrations of pharmaceutical residues harm fish, frogs and other aquatic species in the wild and impair the workings of human cells in the laboratory. Yes, we should be concerned.

What is BPA?

Fri, 04 Sep 2009 03:21:27 GMT

p>2. Health and Wellness: What is BPA and Why Should I Care?

BPA has been linked to heart disease, diabetes and liver disease. What does BPA stand for? BPA or Bisphenol A is a synthetic chemical compound found in my consumer food containers made with plastic. It includes products such as plastic bottles for water, juices, ketchup. It also includes plastic food wrap and plastic liners in food cans like cans of soup, peas, and tomato sauce to name just a few.

Who says its potentially very unhealthy? On Sept 16/08, The Journal of the American Medical Association found some preliminary evidence to suggest that BPA could be implicated in higher risks for heart disease, diabetes and liver disease. More study was definitely recommended. The FDA in the US is currently reviewing its policy and asking for an independent second opinion.

In Canada, BPA is classed as a "hormone disrupter" . As a hormone disrupter, as one might expect, it interferes with the hormone system of both humans and wildlife in a number of ways to cause problems in a number of areas such as genital tract, prostate weight, testosterone levels, breast cells. With tied in with the latest findings above, should be fair warning to avoid ingesting this chemical when possible.

Got Fat Friendly Friends?

Thu, 03 Sep 2009 02:30:46 GMT

Got Fat Friendly Friends

Time magazine recently ran an article quoting a study of obesity where it found that fat children that ate lunch with their fat friends ate more than they would if they were eating lunch with their skinny friends. It appears to be also true for partners in a relationship. If you are fat the chances are much better for the second person to be fat. It's almost as if your fat friends and partners give you permission to be fat. When fat people are in the company of skinny people, they often hold back because they don't want to be viewed as glutons. So if you want to be skinny hang around with skinny people.

Eat Your Tomatos

Wed, 02 Sep 2009 12:57:26 GMT

Eat Your Tomatoes

An important health food note from Agri Canada

Tomato skins and tomato products contain higher levels of lycopene than any other fruit or vegetable. Lycopene is an anti-oxidant with cancer-fighting properties. Clinical studies have shown that lycopene may actively inhibit the development of several cancers, including prostate, digestive tract, breast, lung and cervical cancers. Lycopene has also been shown to help prevent cardiovascular disease and other chronic diseases.

Lycopene is valued at about $100 per milligram in its purest form. With suggested daily dosages falling between 10 and 50 milligrams per day for adults, taking a daily lycopene supplement would be prohibitively expensive for most Canadian men and women. That's where the tomato comes in.

Ontario produces more tomatoes than anywhere else in North America, except for California. More than 500,000 tonnes of processing tomatoes are produced in Ontario annually, and there are more than 10 tomato processing plants located in southern Ontario alone. Currently, the skin of a tomato is peeled and discarded when tomatoes are processed. The amount of skin discarded each year in Ontario could create 5,000 kg of lycopene. Efforts are currently underway to fortify tomato products with lycopene extracted from tomato skins so that people can get greater benefit from the tomatoes they eat every day.
