USING SOCIAL MEDIA TO ATTRACT MORE CUSTOMERS

Whether you have been in business for decades or just starting out, defining your customer is crucial to business success.   Defining your target customer involves collecting basic personal data which includes demographics such as, age, gender, marital status, etc. However going beyond the usual demographics, will give you the competitive edge.  Getting your ideal customer to move from awareness to engagement: Social media can be used to create customer awareness. However, social media is about more that publishing content. Its more about engaging your audience and getting conversion.  Studies have shown that the average person will spend close to two hours a day on social media, which is why brand awareness is a key goal for businesses. Choose the Right Social Network to Engage Your Audience Targeting every social network without looking at each platform’s demographics won’t provide the results you’re looking for. Before deciding which platforms to...

Would you like to experience the supernatural in your finances, relationship and family life, health, or just about any problem?  Experiencing the supernatural is possible through prayer and fasting.  Research has shown that over 50% of Americans pray every day.

LESSONS LEARNT - MY EXPERIENCE IN MULTI LEVEL MARKETING

Multi - level marketing is a strategy that some direct sales companies use to encourage their existing distributors to recruit new distributors by paying a percentage of their sales; the recruits are known as a distributor's "downline" or independent business owners (IBO)   Over the years, having signed as an independent business owner with a few MLM companies I have gained some valuable experience and basic knowledge of the business to share on my blog.   Multi - level marketing   provides an additional source of income.  Success of the business is dependent on the input, effort or value being added. Based on my experience here are a number of pointers: Success of the business depends on people (distributor, referrals, prospects, customers).  People provide income by purchasing products, give feedback on the product or service and referrals for prospective customers.

LOVE IS

The more I experience and learn about love it becomes more evident that I don’t know much about true love or perfect love.   How about you? Love denies self and seeks after the good of others.  A mammoth task?  When the golden rule is applied, No.  Love is a fruit of the spirit.  It is not born out of emotions to which we are mostly inclined.   We must put aside selfish desires to truly love. The Amplified Bible, 1 Corinthians 13 describes perfect love.   The way it was intended. Love endures with patience and serenity, love is kind and thoughtful, and is not jealous or envious; love does not brag and is not proud or arrogant.   It is not rude; it is not self-seeking, it is not provoked [nor overly sensitive and easily angered]; it does not take into account a wrong endured.   It does not rejoice at injustice, but rejoices with the truth [when right and truth prevail].   Love bears all things [regardless of what comes]...

Hope for the greater good

Image
Loss, debt, hurt, pain, disappointment such is the cry of many … will we ever find hope? Disappointment crept into my soul when I reviewed the objectives that I had set for the 2016.    It’s March and thing were at a standstill.   Even though I had planned for a balanced budget by March the reality was far from the perceived objective.   Frustrated, I went back to the drawing board.   It’s time to Pray.  Will it work this time?   Is God really listening?   Is he really there?   When will I get it right?   What have I done wrong?   These were the questions that prevailed in my mind. In a desperate attempt to do something different (stupid to be more precise), I recorded the debts on sticky notes, stuck them in my Bible and left them.   God will take care of them.   A few days later I was gifted with a new book.   The Shack: Wm. Paul Young.    This book is a must read. Below I will disc...
