Ok so now you are wondering what the heck the Best Damn Redirect is right?
I made this video earlier tonight because of how the Best Damn Redirect was the solution to a problem I had earlier this week.

2008, I can’t believe it’s here already. 2007 seemed to fly past at an astonishing rate, and yet so many things have happened to change the way I will be living this New Year. They also have a major impact on the goals I am setting for this year because I will be pushing the limit even more. The most important lesson I learnt from last year would have to be this. In order to achieve the goals you set you MUST keep continual focus and WORK on it EVERY DAY until you do. If it is truly your burning desire then let nothing distract you from it or take you off the path towards it.
How will 2008 shape up for you?
Have you set your goals and written them down?
Will you achieve your dreams and goals?
What action are you taking every day so you WILL achieve them?
Here are just a couple of the most significant goals I set last year and actually achieved ahead of time. Read the rest of this entry »
Unless you’re a real “newbie” online, or been living on a deserted island somewhere in the Pacific, then you will have heard the term “Blog”. You may even have a few in your own marketing bag of tricks. Blogging is something I use a lot to generate passive income streams.
Blogs have been around for a long time now, but it’s really only been within the last few years that online marketers have discovered just how profitable they can be.
Blogs can help generate a tremendous amount of traffic to your website(s), which means you are getting more eyeballs on your offers and generating more sales.

It has come to my attention that the Internet and what we’ve come to know as Information Overload have a whole lot to do with… breathing.
So much of the large load of information that come to us has to do with HYPE, and from this combination, I’ve coined the term HYPErventilate. Our only course of action is to take a deep breath and just Dive In. During your hard work of pitching it all to the curb, you’re in for a bit of heavy breathing. Lastly, when you’ve emptied the trash, you can then breathe easy.
We have all been dealing with the increasing information load for more than two decades. Here is a quote — not from our new 21st Century, but from 1990:
“Everything from telegraphy and photography in the 19th century to the silicon chip in the 20th has amplified the din of information, until matters have reached such proportions today that for the average person, information no longer has any relation to the solution of problems. Our defences against information glut have broken down; our information immune system is inoperable. We don’t know how to filter it out; we don’t know how to reduce it; we don’t know to use it.”

Information overload happens when you are attempting to learn too much, too fast.
What a statement for the 21st Century! I can just hear the groans — this is the INTERNET! Of course it’s too much, too fast! Because you are an Internet marketer, I am guessing that you just think that stress comes with the territory. But, does it have to? Let’s explore what we might be able to do to alleviate this.
A lot of the stress and apprehension, and our sense of overload that we carry comes from feeling our lives are out of control. We plainly feel overloaded. Is this a new thing? Is this a part and parcel of having entered a new century?
Ponder this quote, and decide for yourself whether or not this came from a post-Y2K speech:

You are wallowing in two things today: 1) information overload and the glut of just more stuff in your inbox, and 2) a true sense of blame for this electronic-world-gone-crazy that has so relentlessly dumped all of this in your lap. To be fair, however, from your PC, out to the multitudinous servers of the global highway… they are simply doing their job. However, are YOU doing yours? Much of this pandemonium and overload could be controlled with just one word:
FOCUS.
Whose fault is this? Again, to be fair, a lot of your overload may have to do with increasing spam. But most of it has to do with your avid interest in information, and perhaps your habit of signing up with way too many interesting, information-bearing newsletters, membership sites, and the like. Hmm? Really, just who is the real adversary?

Outsourcing is the purchase of goods or services that were previously provided internally. Generally, it is used for a broad range of information technology functions that are selectively contracted to an external service provider.
For most companies, outsourcing is an interesting option, but they are reluctant to explore this option. Many companies are not even aware of outsourcing possibilities.
The decision to outsource is a difficult one that many executives now face. Outsourcing is a difficult issue. The perceived advantages of outsourcing include better control of costs, accountability, and the ability to focus internal resources on more critical business tasks.

Outsourcing does not necessarily take away from your market share. In todays business world, a key factor in maintaining customers and acquiring new business is providing a quality product or service. Many competitors may also be able to provide high standards of quality in their products and services.
Outsourcing has become essential in the role of continuous improvement of any product or service one has to offer. Outsourcing allows you to benefit from the expertise of another company, without accumulating the expenses of new equipment, training, and the crazy world of non-conformances.
Now you may be thinking of what steps you need to get started on expanding via outsourcing. Well, the very first thing for you to do is to see if you have a good client base where you are.
