Marketing with Newsletters
We all know how difficult it is to find new clients. When we have them as clients we have to do everything we can to keep them and provide them with great customer service.
What we need to do is develop a 10 touch plan so that we can be in contact with them at least ten times a year. Often we think that we have sold them our product or service and they won't need us again. There is always going to be staff turnover, executives leaving the organisation and joining other companies and as long as we stay in touch, more business will follow. I recently returned from speaking in Sydney and this was as a result of a CEO selling his company in the UK and taking a senior position in Australia. By staying in touch he hired me to speak at the company in Australia.
So we either have to be with them face to face, on the telephone, by email, or the easiest way to keep in contact is by newsletter. I like to produce the electronic newsletter as the costs are minimal and I can see all the statistics of how many people open the newsletter, unsubscribe or link through to the website. (I've always been driven by ratios; I feel they are so important in selling)
Publishing a newsletter is a cost effective way to build your loyal customer base. You keep your clients updated about your business, latest offerings, as well as new products and services. It keeps you and your business visible
Good information gets distributed. So, a newsletter is a means of viral marketing, your clients will pass it on to their clients and before you know it the telephone will be ringing from new clients that you never even knew existed. When I sent out my first newsletter, I received a call the next day from someone who had been forwarded my newsletter and this resulted in a number of talks and training days with that company..
Here are some tips for producing your newsletter:
* Always ensure that you have a main article that provides information that your readers will find valuable. Your articles form the body of your newsletter. They should be informative and arouse the interests of your readers. Articles should be well written, and checked for spelling and grammatical errors. Your readers will be appreciative of the fact that you have given much thought and preparation to your articles. I always try to add value with good practical information.
* Keep abreast with the current developments of your field. Your readers want to know what is new and what is hot.
* Within your Ezine, throw in links to related articles that you have written or been featured in when appropriate.
* Offer testimonials from satisfied clients
* Give real life examples and show how you've helped clients
* Case studies always position you as the expert in your readers' minds more than you coming out and saying so.
* Jot down eight questions your clients have asked you in the past
* Answer each one in a short article, as there may be many other clients who have the same questions in mind.
* If you have been to any industry conference workshops or seminars where you've picked up some helpful hints, share these with your readers
* Offer a list of your top five to ten tips on a certain subject
* Recommend books or resources and offer reviews on some of these books. By the way, take a look at my new list of recommended books at http://tinyurl.com/s6j67

Customer Review: Great product and provider
I had ordered one of these from another company - came in damaged and that was their last one. Eventhough I paid a bit more for this one, it came in on time, undamaged and worked great. We were able to wirelessly broadcast our Christmas services to an overflow area. Considering the price of the product, it worked very well. A slight flicker here and there but better otherwise great. Thanks!
Customer Review: VGA splitters
Imagine you have $100. If you have to give it to only one person, that person gets $100. What happens if you must distribute the money to two people?
I have not actually purchased this item so throw out the rating, but based on the reviews I see a pattern of blurry video due to VGA "Y" cables. FYI: Non-powered VGA "Y" cables are always terrible. They result in very poor video quality due to the fact that the same amount of power in the signal must be split to multiple monitors. Each monitor puts a signal load on the line. This is demonstrated by the reviewer that states, "The vga Y cable they include seems to increase the issues". 100% of the power turns into 50-50.
A powered VGA splitter such as the SIIG VV-S40012-S1 would work much better in general for this application. It's an amplifier.
I am not stating that the issues mentioned by other reviewers of the Grandtech GWB-4000 would be completely resolved by the aformentioned VGA splitter, but I am simply passing along some hopefully helpful info should you consider making this puchase.
The biggest drawback for me is the 2.4GHz operating frequncy. It would interfere with my wireless network.

Dream Lovers
Dream Lovers
A 1986 Hong Kong variation on Somewhere in Time, with Adrian Lyne-style snazzy visuals contributed by director Tony Au, and music that sounds like Tangerine Dream outtakes. Chow Yun-fat and Brigitte Lin Ching-hsia (The Bride with White Hair) are a strikingly glamorous pair of star-crossed lovers. Apparently they were an item in a past life, during the Qin dynasty over 2,000 years ago. When they meet at an exhibition of terra cotta soldiers unearthed from the Qin emperor's tomb, the past merges with the present. (The flashback scenes mark Chow's only big-screen appearance in traditional Chinese garb, although he played several period roles in his apprentice phase as a TV idol.) The storytelling is anemic, and the finale a major letdown, but you may be satisfied just gazing at the stars, and at the lush period sets and costumes. Movies don't come much prettier. --David Chute
Customer Review: Wonderful movie! Pick up original for less at...read more
Great movie but talk about price gouging - 50 bucks for a dvd! That's totally ridiculous and without any extra features! I'm going to pass on some valuable info to my fellow Hong Kong movie buffs. Do yourselves a favor and visit www.Goodwillco.com - they are a terrific Canadian distributor of original HK version dvds. "Dream Lovers" is only about $7-$8 USD. Most of their HK titles fall within this price range. "Hero" now at theatres starring Jet Li, Maggie Cheung, Tony Leung is also available for this price. Their service is outstanding. You can pretty much find any title at their website with original Mandarin/Chinese audio and subtitled. Don't buy any American studio dubbed or edited versions. Boycott Disney and their subsidiaries such as Miramax/Dimension films until they show respect for Asian cinema. They are buying HK catalog titles and butchering by editing and English dubbing. Disney is also purchasing HK titles to keep in storage without release. By doing so, Disney can keep the original studios from releasing these titles and have a monopoly on the catalog. Talk about DisNazi tactics! Visit the Web Alliance for the Respectful Treatment of Asian Cinema to sign the petition to Miramax. Over 13,000 signatures have been collected.
Customer Review: not for the "Sleepless and Seattle crowd"...
...but if you like an intelligent, artful, thoughtful, and (unthinkable if this were to be re-made by Hollywood) profoundly rewarding cinematic romance, this is the film for you. So what if the attire and sets are a bit 1980ish? Unlike forgettable Hollywood knockoffs, Tony Au's background in costume and set design-- much like Zhang Yimou at his best-- reminds the viewer throughout the film just how powerful color, sound, and imagery can be. The star-crossed lovers theme, echoed over 20 centuries, gives the film a transcendence seldom found in any "romance." Aside from a rather pathetic attempt to mimic a young Leonard Bernstein on the podium, Yun-Fat Chow gives one of the most nuanced performances of his career (and demonstrates that he doesn't have to just pull a trigger and crack wise to convey screen persona). Brigitte Lin is stunning as Yuet-Heung, Chow's centuries-lost lover reincarnated. And Cher Yeung gives what I hope was an award-winning performance at *some* film festival *somewhere* as Chow's girlfriend of 8 years who suddenly finds herself supplanted by a 20 century-long "dream" of love. Her visceral emotional pain is at the core of this film, and her final sequence is perhaps one of the most devastating portrayals captured on celluloid within this genre. "Eight years or two thousand...it's still love": that line itself captures the simplicity as well as the uncompromising profundity of the film. Well worth the price of your purchase, whatever that may be.

Customer Review: Almost perfect
I tend to like most of my purchases, and this controller is definitely one of them.
It's ergonomic, heavy (thus stable), highly sensitive, and has a nice feeling in the hands. Battery life is acceptable, and its layout goes well with many games. Basically it has what I want from a good controller.
I'd been exclusively using this controller (I had two different ones as well), until I got an Xbox 360 one. Due to built in support in "Games for Windows" products of the xbox controller, I unfortunately stopped using the Logitech one.
Unless you're going exclusively for GFW titles, for a different price range, and this is still the best choice I know.
Customer Review: Excellent Product
This controller does exactly what it says it can do. I am very pleased with this product.
