Power List Marketing is an opportunity that is intended to improve one's "list" in a short period of time. In internet marketing one's list refers to the number of leads or people whose information they because they had liked what they saw and entered their information into your site. PLM's primary focus is to help people improve traffic by setting up a referral based system using ClickBank strategies, to increase traffic.
One's list is certainly a valuable aspect of their internet livelihood but it is important to not overlook the quality of the leads. Traffic is the most important part of internet marketing but if it is of poor quality it does not really matter. Inundating people with email barrages does not excite people to join your business. In most instances it makes them want to run the other direction. Power List Marketing does have a strategy for improving the overall number of leads one may get, but does nothing in the neighborhood of qualifying, or insuring that these leads are truly interested in your business.
Power List Marketing employs a referral link click system that increases the amount of traffic one gets based on the number of people they refer to the system. Now, presently one can join PLM with a free lifetime membership. The only caveat is that they will attempt to refer others to the system. The example they use on their website is that by just referring 10 people to the program you could increase your number of views by 3,000 per month.
Power List Marketing is a decent system to improve overall traffic but it is not helpful when it comes to the personal connection which is vital in this industry. Most everyone I speak with is highly skeptical of any program online to make money, and rightfully so! I was one of them too. The most important thing for any internet marketer is personally connecting with each prospect. However one decides to do that is their own decision, but the list means nothing without a connection.

3 Tips For Managing Information Overload
Here are 3 tips you can use to better manage information as it is presented to you without losing your focus on your business.
Schedule Time to Review
Spontaneously reviewing any new information that comes across your desk is a great way to open you and your business up to continual distractions. The best way to manage information so as not to disrupt your productivity is to schedule a 'specific' time for its review. Whether daily, weekly or monthly you must stick to this schedule like any other work related task you plan to complete at a designated time.
Use What You Need
When reviewing any information you may have accumulated identify only useful information that may serve an immediate purpose. Avoid the temptation of altering your current business approach just to make better use of information you may have just received. Use only what is applicable to your business at that point in time!
File the Rest
Unless judged totally useless categorize and file any information you judge as having useful potential at a later date in time. Whenmarketing on the internet you need to plan on and expect your business to continually evolve. With that said you will have accumulated a file of 'reference' material that may serve to be very useful in the growth and evolution of your business. Any other information that appears to serve little purpose should be discarded.
Information overload is something everybody working online is subjected to and if you allow it to become a distraction it can hurt your business. The problem is that too much information is being delivered to you too quickly leaving youfeeling overwhelmed and confused. The solution is to selectively 'ignore' this information and 'select' a time when it is best for you to review it. The 3 tips we discussed above show you how to better manage information by 'scheduling' time to review and file any useful information and discard the rest. By doing so you now have a reference file to which you can turn when you find a need for the information found within.
Why Use A Web Presenter For Your Site
There are over 1,733,000,000 Internet users around the globe and over 235 million searches done on Google a day. The Internet has become rich pickings for companies wishing to market there products, services or ideas to a global audience. With so many businesses now online, it is a critical decision for the company, to be first found, and second to keep the user on the site long enough to capture there attention and get them to carry out a call to action, whether that be buy a product, sign up for a newsletter, or join a forum.
One of the most influential ways to capture a user, is through video and especially a web presenter. It has been proven that visitors to a website, normally have a very short attention span. Seven seconds to be exact. This means the website owner, has seven seconds to captivate there audience before they leave, or worse leave and purchase from a competitor. By the use of video on a site, the customer is naturally drawn to the image, and will pick up more than 30% more information than if they just read just content on a site.
Web Presenters Capture The Attention
One way to capture the customer is by the use of a walk on web presenter. Walk on web presenters are usually professional actors/actresses or for a special touch some webmaster will take the role of web presenter themselves. Usually all that is needed is for the web presenter to walk on from either the left or right hand of the screen and deliver a short welcome message and brief introduction of the site pointing out the key features.
Web Presenter Video Tour
Another idea is to use video as a marketing tool for a companies products and services. This can be either in the form of a direct advert about the company offering a walk through of the store, interviewing staff members and even the owner of the business or a instructional/how-to-video solving an every day problem, for example changing a car battery. This engages the user without it feeling like there forced into a sale.
This can be seen as a daunting and difficult task for the business owner, but it need not be. A video production company can outline the steps needed to product a successful video, and help with scripting, editing, filming, casting and more. Some will even distribute your video content.

In the last quarter, the public spent 950 billion on retail goods, and 3 percent of those sales were online.

More and more people are discovering the convenience of online shopping, and internet sales are about to explode. This business makes shopping available from over 700 of the stores you shop the most. Stores like: WalMart, Sears, Target, Home Depot, Borders, Macy's, Bass Pro Shops... You and others can also book travel on your site from airlines, cruise lines, hotels, auto rentals, and resorts.

Then if friends refer friends to your site, you will earn commissions from their purchases too, from now to eternity
Does owning your own business seem a little scary? It need not be. This is an online business in which everything is done for you: no hiring or firing, no head-spinning accounting or bookkeeping, no collections, no inventory, no quotas, no income limits. Plus, it this site is open 24/7 with worldwide distribution.
A guy named Jeff writes that he wanted to give out a bunch of restaurant gift certificates. He bought them on this site, and his cost for 20 certificates worth $500 was only $40. Jennifer regularly ordered 10 computer ink cartridges from a leading office store for over $209. She purchased the same ink cartridges from this site for $44.95.
So you can earn big commissions just shopping and inviting others to shop free on your site. But if you want to earn even greater dividends, you can market this online business to others. But don't even think about that now. Think of all the profit you can earn buying and selling online. Okay, I know you're going crazy wondering what the name of this incredible win-win business is: it is ZamZuu! Better get used to hearing that word. You're going to hear it more and more in the next decade.
Men Prefer Bad Girls,true?
This post was triggered off by something I heard on the radio last evening on my way back home. A lot has been said and many a storm has brewed over several cups of tea and coffee on what men and women want – not just in terms of each other or in a relationship, but in general. And, I for one, don’t have an answer yet. Don’t think any one of either sex does. There’s way too much oestrogen and testosterone on television for anybody’s good to make such a decision.
But to return to the discussion on radio, that, in turn, led to this post – do men prefer bad girls? Now this is as random as it can get, considering we’re not defining the term ‘bad’. Sundry men called in to say they’d prefer ‘bad girls’ because they’re ‘more fun’.
Yeah sure! And might I ask, what their idea of ‘fun’ is? The excitement and thrill of doing ‘naughty’ things that ‘stuck-up’, ‘good girls’ wouldn’t do, like taking off on a bike to an unknown destination till the cops come after you? They say they get along better with the ‘bad girls’ — you know “great minds think alike” and all that; they’re an impulsive lot, don’t care much for a relationship and yet give the boys a good time. Whatever their idea of ‘fun’, this lot of men believe only ‘bad’ girls are good for them, as the cliche goes.
As Donna Summer’s critically acclaimed number goes:
mister, do you want to spend some time, oh yeah
I got what you want
you got what I need
I’ll be your baby
come and spend it on me
Then there is the shameless lot that prefers a ‘bad girl’ as a girlfriend but would like a ‘good girl’ for a wife. And that’s the quintessential middle-class Indian guy for you. They desire the undesirable, they hanker for the forbidden fruit but when it comes to making choices, Mommy dearest will pick the ripest, prettiest, can’t-say-no-to fruit of the lot. They are the hypocrites who want the best of both worlds. And then as my colleague Tarun says: “Mature men don’t go for ‘bad girls’.” These are the ones that give gyaan on ‘responsibility’ and such like when they talk of ‘settling down’.
Unlike MJ, they aren’t man enough to say:
I’m Big, I’m Bad-
Come On
(Really, Really Bad)
You Know I’m Big, I’m Bad-
You Know It
(Really, Really Bad)
But they want the ‘bad girls’ to liven up their lives just before they settle to a life of unadulterated, blissful domesticity. Really in this day and age, is there such a categorisation of good and bad? Or do you just do it? You know, go for the kill?
Maybe it’s time they think beyond just sport (no, I don’t mean football) – the good, the bad and the ugly part of it. Be the metrosexual man and own up, step out of the closet and talk about what you really like about the ‘bad girls’ apart from the ‘fun’ part of it.
Tell us, if you have the… oh, never mind.
