A Note from Mal Keenan
===================================

Greetings friends,
How's it going?

I don't suppose you happen to know if Google is in the midst of a "dance"? If you're wondering what a "dance" is, it is the web term for the process of Google reindexing all their search engine ranks.

Anyway I have seen a drop in some of my search engine rankings and I have heard that this can happen during the "dance". Or maybe it is just due to some changes I made recently, time to maybe undo them:-)

March on march on, that's what I say. What about you?

Til next time

Your friend in success

FEATURE ARTICLE - 12 Profit Increasing Tips For Ezine Publishers
===================================

By Ken Hill

1. Provide your subscribers with special offers, discounts or sales that only they are privy to.

This could include subscriber only bonuses for purchasing your product, a two for one sale, or you could sell your product at a lower price for a limited time to boost your sales.

2. Include a publisher's note or welcome message before you get into your ezine's content.

This will help you to add your personality to your ezine as well as help you to build up your subscriber's trust in you and your business.

Your publisher's note is also a great place to be self promotional by telling your subscribers of any special offers or subscriber only discounts you have running.

3. Use bonuses to get more subscriptions to your publication such as ebooks you've written, ebooks you have the resell rights to, a marketing course, or anything else that your visitors would find to be valuable.

4. Promote your ezine on every page of your site with a subscription box that advertises your ezine.

Ask for your subscriber's first name on your subscription box so that you can personalize your ezine with your subscriber's name.

5. Swap ads with other ezine publishers. This will give you an effective way to increase your circulation by promoting your ezine in publications that target the same audience as your ezine does.

Swap ads for at least three issues in a row and track your ad swaps so that you will be able to tell which ezines and which ads get the best response.

6. Purchase classified ads and sponsor ads in other ezines.

As with your ad swaps track your ads so that you can identify which ezines are best to advertise in and which ads are the most effective in increasing your subscriptions.

7. Submit your publication to ezine directories and announcement lists.

This will get your publication noticed by people interested in subscribing to ezines like yours. In addition most announcement lists will allow you to submit your ezine on a weekly or monthly basis which will give you ongoing promotion of your ezine.

Some directories and announcement lists to help you get started are: (Copy and paste the links below into your web browser)

8. Write your own articles that you publish in your ezine.

Writing articles will increase your credibility with your subscribers and lead to more sales of your products.

Try writing "how to articles" that show your readers step by step how to do something or provide your readers with a list of valuable tips.

After your articles place an advertisement that promotes your business, service or special offer.

9. Go through the articles you've run in your ezine and pick those that you feel best showcase your expertise.

Add a benefit rich resource box to your articles that entices your readers to subscribe to your publication and then submit your articles to article directories, article announcement lists, and to other ezine publishers.

Some announcement lists and directories you can submit your articles to are:(Copy and paste the links below into your web browser)

10. Use testimonials for your products in your ezine to increase your subscriber's trust in your product and to increase your sales.

Also increase the number of visitors that subscribe to your ezine by including testimonials for your ezine on your site from your happy subscribers.

11. Use your signature file to promote your ezine.

Keep your sig file to 5-8 lines that stress the benefits of subscribing to your ezine and use your sig file in all your outgoing email. This will give you an easy no cost way to promote your ezine and rake in new subscribers.

12. Recommend the products of affiliate programs you've joined to your subscribers.

This will help you to increase your profit while helping you to meet your subscribers needs. Only endorse products you have used and would whole heartedly recommend to your subscriber base.

GUEST ARTICLE - Willingness Pays Off
===================================

By Kathy Gates

When it comes to goal setting, and actually more importantly, goal achieving, there are numerous things involved. Like knowledge of how-to, and having the right tools, and the support of others.

But there's probably no more important ingredient in Goal Achieving than willingness.

Success, change, goal-setting -- they absolutely cannot be achieved without the willingness to do what it takes to make it happen.

As one author noted, "God provides ample food for the birds -- but he does not throw it into their nests!"

God has provided ample "food" (rewards) for you too. But you have to be willing to go out and put in the effort that it will require to get it. He's not going to send it to your door in a FedEx package.

Results only come from the effort of going out and getting what you want in your life.

Effort is a very individual thing. Think of the Olympic athletes. To reach that level of competition, they had to spend hours and hours of unwavering dedication to a specific sport. Now maybe you're not willing to go that far - or maybe you are - but it's your decision.

The key is that it has to be a conscious decision. You must be able to say: I am willing to (keep trying, working, asking, experimenting, learning) until I achieve (fill in the blank).

Or you might say: I am not willing to (whatever).

I can easily say that I personally am *not willing* to spend 8 hours a day bundled up in layers of clothing to ski down a snow covered mountain. No way. Uh-uh. Not going to happen.

On the other hand, I will spend hours at my computer learning a new skill, or organizing my home (I love to organize, so sue me!). It's what I love. It's what's important to me. That's a skill that I can pass along to others to help make their businesses and daily lives easier.

Again, the key here is what you are willing to do with your effort. You have a limited supply given to you each day. What are you willing to do with it?

Where is your effort-your energy, your resources -- directed each day? Where is your willingness to invest your effort each day?

Do you spend hours worrying about things over which you have no control?

Do you spend your day at a job you hate, yet not make any moves toward changing?

Do you wish for better relationships, but spend no time working on them?

Do you lament your weight and health, but make unhealthy eating choices over and over again?

My point is that effort must be in the right direction!

Thinking about it, and wishing it would happen to you, and hoping that someday your ship will come in are all mental wastes of effort.

Doing the same thing over and over and over and hoping that you'll get a different result if you just do the same thing one more time is a waste of effort.

You cannot - never will - get a chocolate cake if you use a lemon cake recipe -- no matter how many times you bake that cake! You will never get roses as long as you plant tomatoes in your garden. Won't happen. Uh-uh. No way.

If you focus your energy on the wrong things, in the wrong direction, you're going to get a result you don't want. Every time. Guaranteed.

Take a close look at your effort. Is it being spent on what's really important to you? Is it being spent on what you want to grow in your life?

We often live "on the fringes" of things. Take just one small thing in your life and totally commit to it - like doing the dishes immediately after dinner, or keeping up with your home files, or not snacking after dinner. Commit to it completely for one full month, and see how your effort pays off.
