 &lt;p&gt;Over the past few weeks I've been working closely with one of my local real estate clients helping him generate LEADS for his &lt;a href="http://realestatelistingssudbury.com/"&gt;Sudbury real estate business&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;While spending some time with Terry I realized that a lot of first time Sudbury home buyers are sitting on the fence trying to decide if they should buy a house in Sudbury or just rent an apartment. To tell you the truth I&amp;rsquo;ve owned my home for so long and I&amp;rsquo;m really not that up to speed when it comes to renting VS owning your house. So I decided to do the math on one of &lt;a href="http://realestatelistingssudbury.com/"&gt;Terry Zuk&amp;rsquo;s Sudbury real estate listings&lt;/a&gt; so that I would have a better understanding of the economics and get a feel for what kind of leads we needed to generate for his real estate business.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;To say the least I was amazed at the results that came out of this quick exercise.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Check it out for yourself:&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Description: 3 bedrooms, 900 SQ feet, finished recreation room, all appliances.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;House Purchase Price: $134,000.00&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Down payment: $6700.00&lt;br /&gt;Mortgage: $127,300.00&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Monthly carrying costs:&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Mortgage: $472.21&lt;br /&gt;Taxes: $110&lt;br /&gt;Utilities: $150.00&lt;br /&gt;Insurance: $52.00&lt;br /&gt;Total: $774.21&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;With Sudbury apartments priced in the $850-$1500 range I know what I would do. Everything being equal I would definitely consider buying my own apartment. Throw in the low interest rates, no land transfer tax and the government energy grants and I really don&amp;rsquo;t think there is a better time to own your first home.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;So if you&amp;rsquo;re ready to jump off the fence.

(yellow&lt;br /&gt;pages, newspapers,magazines etc)&lt;p /&gt;The second question I then ask "are you sure that this&lt;br /&gt;advertising is working?&lt;p /&gt;And then I get the what I call the TROUT LOOK.I know&lt;br /&gt;it's goofy but I'm Canadian and it's fishing season.&lt;p /&gt;Unreal but true. Around 95% of local business owners I&lt;br /&gt;meet with have no idea whether or not their advertising&lt;br /&gt;is working.&lt;p /&gt;So why do they do it?&lt;p /&gt;I ask them and I get the same answer again and again.&lt;br /&gt;“I advertise in the Yellow Pages because all my&lt;br /&gt;competitors advertise there.”&lt;p /&gt;Let's be honest here, these hard working local business&lt;br /&gt;owners (many are friends and family) are being RIPPED&lt;br /&gt;OFF by an advertising industry that makes a fortune by&lt;br /&gt;convincing local business owners to buy advertising&lt;br /&gt;that will NEVER and I mean NEVER work.&lt;p /&gt;They hire, train and deploy a bunch of slick salespeople&lt;br /&gt;or highly scripted telemarketing staff that get local &lt;br /&gt;business owners to part with their hard eaned cash by &lt;br /&gt;using scare tactics like your competitors are there or &lt;br /&gt;by playing the RATE card game of well I'll give a huge&lt;br /&gt;discount off our published rates.&lt;p /&gt;It may be legal but in my mind it certainly is not&lt;br /&gt;ethical.&lt;p /&gt;Just because your competitor is advertising there it&lt;br /&gt;does not mean it's working and I assure you from our&lt;br /&gt;research that it's probably not.&lt;p /&gt;AND &lt;p /&gt;50% OFF something that does not work means nothing&lt;br /&gt;whether you paid $3000 or the huge discount rate of&lt;br /&gt;$1500.If I sell you a used car for 50% OFF and it does&lt;br /&gt;not get you from point A to point B will you call me&lt;br /&gt;up and thank me that you didn't pay full price or would&lt;br /&gt;you rip my head off?&lt;p /&gt;Listen I'm not saying there is anything wrong with&lt;br /&gt;advertising.Done properly with the video marketing&lt;br /&gt;strategies, systems and tools we use here at &lt;br /&gt;LocalAdPower.com I can GUARANTEE you will get a great&lt;br /&gt;ROI on your investment and not only will you see results&lt;br /&gt;you'll actually be able to measure your advertising spend.&lt;p /&gt;So the next time your Yellow Page or any ad rep walks&lt;br /&gt;into your local business make it clear  that you have no&lt;br /&gt;interest in what your competitor is doing or how mush of a &lt;br /&gt;discount your getting if you sign up today and that You&lt;br /&gt;will only ever pay for results –and that’s what determines&lt;br /&gt;what you are willing to spend.&lt;p /&gt;-Rick Comtois&lt;br /&gt; CEO &amp;amp; Founder &lt;br /&gt;Local Ad Power.com&lt;p /&gt;Author Info: Rick Comtois is the CEO &amp;amp; Founder of&lt;br /&gt;LocalAdPower.com a small online video marketing firm&lt;br /&gt;based in Sudbury.ONTARIO.Canada.

 Do you spend money on Yellow Page ads?&lt;p /&gt;  Do you buy spots on the radio?&lt;p /&gt;  Do you use ValPaks?&lt;p /&gt;  Do you buy space in the newspaper?&lt;p /&gt;  Probably you use these methods… one or all of them.&lt;p /&gt;  However if you are like most business owners, you might as well be  taking the money and flushing it right down the toilet.&lt;p /&gt;  You'd have more fun blowing it in Vegas.  And at least you'd be having  fun (until you see the credit card statement).&lt;p /&gt;  We know one guy who is spending $34,689 a year on Yellow Page Ads and  when we asked him "exactly how much of your&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;traffic comes in from Yellow  Page ads" he had no answer other than "well we think it works."&lt;p /&gt;  It sure is a pretty ad :-) … so many pretty colors… so beautifully  designed… so freaking useless.&lt;p /&gt;  Of course if you are going to shell out $35k a year, you'd better at  least pretend in your own mind that it's a good investment.&lt;p /&gt;  The same thing happens with radio spots, newspaper ads, classifieds,  local or regional advertising.&lt;p /&gt;  You buy those spots because, well, because that's what people do, and  because you are used to doing that.&lt;p /&gt;  It's "the way things are done."&lt;p /&gt;  What are you getting for your hard-earned money?&lt;p /&gt;  Maybe something, maybe "F-all" (probably the latter).&lt;p /&gt;  But you don't know because you aren't using measuring or testing  techniques.&lt;p /&gt;  You literally have no way of knowing if your advertising efforts are  working or failing other than guessing.&lt;p /&gt;  That's why we call it hunting blind in the dark. &lt;p /&gt;  You are just firing into the darkness and hoping you hit something.&lt;p /&gt;

 &lt;div&gt;especially when there’s so much chaos.&lt;p /&gt;  Here’s what I mean: Everyone and their brother is promoting Main Street&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;Marketing Machines, which is quickly becoming one of the top product&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;launches of the year.&lt;p /&gt;  The problem is, it’s a Legitimate Course.&lt;p /&gt;  Why is that a problem? Simple – launches have a tendency to create so  much buzz in the market&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;that they can blur the REAL message. Then, before you know&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;it, public forums are complaining about the HYPE, instead of talking  about THE&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;PRODUCT.&lt;p /&gt;  Which is a shame. But the creator of Main Street Marketing Machines,  Mike&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;Koenigs, has an interesting solution.&lt;p /&gt;  &lt;strong&gt;For SEVEN (7) Hours today, he’s going to do a LIVE, High  Definition Web &lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt; &lt;strong&gt;Cast and answer questions about Main Street Marketing.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;p /&gt;  Which is VERY cool, because you’ll get to hear Real-World experiences  from&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;several Main Street Marketing Machine Graduates – people that are out  there&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;working with Small Businesses. And you’ll hear the real-story: Their  struggles,&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;their concerns, and their solutions.&lt;p /&gt;  &lt;strong&gt;And, it’s totally free. No Opt-in, or anything.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;p /&gt;  Check it out:&lt;br /&gt; &lt;a href="http://www.mainstreetmarketingmachines.com/live-webcast/cmd.php?af=33413" target="_blank"&gt;http://www.mainstreetmarketingmachines.com/live-webcast/cmd.php?af=33413&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p /&gt;  It starts at 10am Pacific, 1pm Eastern. (Sorry for the late notice –  Mike JUST&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;decided to do this. But, I’m glad he’s willing to be so flexible and  committed&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;p&gt;to helping people make a rational decision.)&lt;p /&gt;  Thanks!&lt;p /&gt;  Rick&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;"FREE Local Advertising Manifesto&lt;br /&gt;Reveals The 9 Customer Power&lt;br /&gt;Advertising  Secrets Your Yellow&lt;br /&gt;Page Rep Doesn't Want You to Know"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.LocalAdPower.com"&gt;www.LocalAdPower.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

 &lt;p&gt;IF you learn how to use them (we'll show you how in a minute) they  can be highly effective.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;But you gotta change the way you think.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;You are careful in so many areas of your business – the building,  the supplies, your inventory, your hiring, lots of other places.&lt;/p&gt;

 &lt;p&gt;How do we know?  Because we talk to local business owners every day –  smart guys and gals, masters of their business or profession – and they  act like we have come in from outer space. &lt;span class="Apple-converted-space"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;The vast majority of business owners don't know one bit of this and  the few who do have ignored it and gone back like a beaten dog to the  old familiar ways of advertising.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;

 &lt;p&gt;Do you use ValPaks?&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Do you buy space in the newspaper?&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Probably you use these methods… one or all of them.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;However if you are like most business owners, you might as well be  taking the money and flushing it right down the toilet.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;You'd have more fun blowing it in Vegas.  And at least you'd be  having fun (until you see the credit card statement).&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;We know one guy who is spending $34,689 a year on Yellow Page Ads  and when we asked him "exactly how much of your traffic comes in from  Yellow Page ads" he had no answer other than "well we think it works."&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;It sure is a pretty ad &lt;img class="wp-smiley" src="http://localadpower.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif" alt=":-)" /&gt; … so many pretty colors… so beautifully  designed… so freaking useless.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Of course if you are going to shell out $35k a year, you'd better at  least pretend in your own mind that it's a good investment.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;The same thing happens with radio spots, newspaper ads, classifieds,  local or regional advertising.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;You buy those spots because, well, because that's what people do,  and because you are used to doing that.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;It's "the way things are done."&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;What are you getting for your hard-earned money?&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Maybe something, maybe "F-all" (probably the latter).&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;But you don't know because you aren't using measuring or testing  techniques.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;You literally have no eay of knowing if your advertising efforts are  working or failing other than guessing.&lt;/p&gt;

Brings in new customers, repeat customers and generates  referrals.&lt;br /&gt; 2. Makes you more money than you spent (profits!)&lt;br /&gt; 2. You can PRECISELY MEASURE RESULTS of the advertising.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Well ain't that obvious?  Not really…&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Here's the kicker.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;You probably think "sure, that's right" about the first one.  You  know the purpose of your ads is to bring in new customers, repeat  customers and generate referrals (duh)&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;And you know the whole idea is to make more money than you spend  (duh)&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;But do you know how to measure the results and be able to tell down  to the penny exactly how well your advertising efforts are paying off?&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Now your eyes are starting to glaze over, aren't they?&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;If you are like most business people we meet day in and day out, you  are "hunting blind in the dark"&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Till then, be well&lt;/p&gt;

 &lt;p&gt;This is absolutely essential.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;If you are going to play a sport, say baseball, you have to know a  few fundamentals before you can even get in the game.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;You must know bases, positions, how to throw, how to run, how to hit  and the rules at a very minimum, right?&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;So here are the fundamentals of business advertising.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Once we've talked about this I'll show you how to apply it into your  offline and online marketing&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;I put it into an acronym called&lt;span class="Apple-converted-space"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-indent: 0px; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 16px;"&gt;Most  business owners focus on products and price.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-indent: 0px; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 16px;"&gt;If  their product is the same or almost the same price (and you should  never campaign on the basis of price, which I explain in other posts)…  one business will probably do better than the other one.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

 &lt;p /&gt;  &lt;div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span style="border-collapse: separate; color: #000000; font-family: Times; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal;

 &lt;p /&gt;  &lt;div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span style="border-collapse: separate; color: #000000; font-family: Times; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-indent: 0px; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 16px;"&gt;I  decided to go get a cup of coffee in each.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;p /&gt;  &lt;div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span style="border-collapse: separate; color: #000000; font-family: Times; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-indent: 0px; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 16px;"&gt;Same  price and basically same location.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;p /&gt;  &lt;div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span style="border-collapse: separate; color: #000000; font-family: Times; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal;

letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-indent: 0px; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 16px;"&gt;In  the one with no customers, the employees were dour and hardly said a  word.    The two customers that were in there looked like they were  reading poetry.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;p /&gt;  &lt;div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span style="border-collapse: separate; color: #000000; font-family: Times; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-indent: 0px; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 16px;"&gt;In  the crowded one, they smiled at you brightly, asked you how your day  was going, and gave you a little chocolate ball with your coffee if you  wanted one.  People were yucking it up at the tables.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="border-collapse: separate; color: #000000; font-family: Times; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-indent: 0px;

font-size: 16px;"&gt;If  I were writing a CSA for the second Starbucks, I might write something  like "We lift your spirits with a smile and a great cup of coffee."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;p /&gt;  &lt;div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span style="border-collapse: separate; color: #000000; font-family: Times; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal;

letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-indent: 0px; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 16px;"&gt;Most  business owners have the idea that if they could just find that better  mousetrap people would knock down their door to buy it.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;p /&gt;  &lt;div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span style="border-collapse: separate; color: #000000; font-family: Times; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-indent: 0px; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 16px;"&gt;Now  that could be true to a certain extent, but have you ever tried to  invent a better mousetrap?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;p /&gt;  &lt;div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span style="border-collapse: separate; color: #000000; font-family: Times; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-indent: 0px; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 16px;"&gt;Obviously  I don't mean an actual mousetrap, but whatever would be the "next big  thing" in your particular business… the brand new product or way of  delivering service.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;p /&gt;  &lt;div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span style="border-collapse: separate; color: #000000; font-family: Times; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-indent: 0px; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 16px;"&gt;First  of all it's nearly impossible to build a better mousetrap no matter  what your field.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;p /&gt;  &lt;div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span style="border-collapse: separate; color: #000000; font-family: Times; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-indent: 0px; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 16px;"&gt;And  if you focus on that it's very difficult to ALSO focus on building your  business.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;p /&gt;  &lt;div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span style="border-collapse: separate; color: #000000; font-family: Times; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-indent: 0px; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 16px;"&gt;But  there IS a way around this.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;p /&gt;  &lt;div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span style="border-collapse: separate; color: #000000; font-family: Times; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-indent: 0px; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 16px;"&gt;Using  this way you can build a better mousetrap AND build your business.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;p /&gt;  &lt;div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span style="border-collapse: separate; color: #000000; font-family: Times; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-indent: 0px; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 16px;"&gt;You  focus on what I've been calling the CSA or Customer Satisfaction  Advantage.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;p /&gt;  &lt;div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span style="border-collapse: separate; color: #000000; font-family: Times; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-indent: 0px; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 16px;"&gt;You  take the wonderful products or services you already offer and then  spend quality time discovering and honing what it is that you do and  what the most important benefit of it is to your customer or client:  then you have a better mousetrap.  Or the same mousetrap but one which  people can relate to better.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;p /&gt;  &lt;div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span style="border-collapse: separate; color: #000000; font-family: Times; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-indent: 0px; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 16px;"&gt;You  help them see that they can't – or don't want to – live without you.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;p /&gt;  &lt;div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span style="border-collapse: separate; color: #000000; font-family: Times; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-indent: 0px; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 16px;"&gt;For  example if you have a health food store, you don't just sell health  food.  Anyone can do that.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;p /&gt;  &lt;div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span style="border-collapse: separate; color: #000000; font-family: Times; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-indent: 0px; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 16px;"&gt;What  you sell is feeling good about yourself because you are eating well.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;p /&gt;  &lt;div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span style="border-collapse: separate; color: #000000; font-family: Times; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-indent: 0px; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 16px;"&gt;Because  you are using the right supplements.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;p /&gt;  &lt;div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span style="border-collapse: separate; color: #000000; font-family: Times; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-indent: 0px; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 16px;"&gt;So  for example every Tuesday at noon, you have a little morning health  food seminar.  Doesn't have to be a big deal, just 15-30 minutes, but  people are invited to join you, have some tea, try a sample of a  product, and get some great information about how to eat healthy.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;p /&gt;  &lt;div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span style="border-collapse: separate; color: #000000; font-family: Times; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-indent: 0px; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 16px;"&gt;Give  them a sample and tell them all about it.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;p /&gt;  &lt;div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span style="border-collapse: separate; color: #000000; font-family: Times; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-indent: 0px; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 16px;"&gt;"New  Health Tuesdays" you could call it, or something even better.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="border-collapse: separate; color: #000000; font-family: Times; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-indent: 0px; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 16px;"&gt;The  whole idea is to increase the value of having a customer relationship  with you.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span style="border-collapse: separate; color: #000000; font-family: Times; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-indent: 0px; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 16px;"&gt;When  you do that you have actually built a better mousetrap.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;p /&gt;  &lt;div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span style="border-collapse: separate; color: #000000; font-family: Times; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-indent: 0px; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 16px;"&gt;Something  which will build your business the rest of your life and build great  connections with your customers who will stick with you for life.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

 &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="border-collapse: separate; color: #000000; font-family: Times; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-indent: 0px;

 &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="border-collapse: separate; color: #000000; font-family: Times; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-indent: 0px;

 &lt;p&gt;If you are in business just to help yourself, you may make some  money today and you may make some money tomorrow, but there is  definitely a ceiling on how far your business can develop and grow.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;I live in a very remote area outside of a mountain town in Northern  California.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Within 10 miles of my house there is only one small grocery store  and one restaurant.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;For the last 20 years, there have been 4 owners of the little  grocery store and 5 owners of the restaurant.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;None of the previous owners have been able to make a go of either  small businesses.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;In the last 5 years however, both businesses have taken off and are  doing great!&amp;nbsp; There are customers at both of these businesses  constantly!&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Now in the last 2 years, "economic conditions" around our neck of  the woods have been very bad as in most places.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Our house values have dropped by as much as 60% (I know mine has for  sure because I checked with a broker).&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Shops are closing in town every day.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Now during that time these two little stores have been going  gangbusters.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;What do you think is the difference?&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;What are these businesses doing differently?&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;How are they surviving and thriving while almost every other  business is flat or going down the tubes?&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;I'm going to make you wait for this and think about it.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Tune in tomorrow and I'll answer the question.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Meantime get ALL the answers to campaigning your local business:&lt;/p&gt;

type='text'>Local Business Marketing Mission Job 1</title><content type='html'>Last time I was saying that most business owners make the mistake of  limiting their marketing efforts to making money.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Making money is obviously the point of being in business… but "what  kind of money?"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What do I mean by "kind of money?"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well there's money that comes in once and money that comes in over  and over again.&amp;nbsp; Which would you prefer?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Most people focus on getting a "sale."&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They think in terms of "having a sale" or "running a promotion."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I want you to think differently… after all if you can go to the  effort of making a sale wouldn't it be nice if the same effort paid you  over and over again?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Instead of a "promotion" I want you to think of what you are doing  as a "campaign."&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The purpose of a campaign is to build a relationship… one which has  as its goal to win your customer's lifetime business and loyalty.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If your marketing or promotional activity succeeds in changing the  way your customers think about your business, product or service as part  of their life and integrated into their world…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And they really see you and your business as valuable to them…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then you have created a real business, not just a sale.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The difference between a real business and a sale is that a real  business doesn't go away tomorrow after the "Christmas sale."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The effect of this kind of marketing – focused on your customer and  your relationship with your customer – is that you have not only someone  who patronizes your business, but someone who believes in you and your  business and will spread the word to others.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This results in more profits for you and a great feeling of why and  how you are in business.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Spend time with us, get to know us at &lt;a href="http://www.localadpower.com/"

type='text'>Traditional advertising sucks</title><content type='html'>Traditional approaches to advertising suck… why do I say that?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Because what most local business owners have done is simply to be   the  slave and monkey to their yellow pages rep, their newspaper sales   rep,  the radio rep.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Don’t be a slave and don’t be passive.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now is the time to go on a crusade for your business.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The difference is that in a crusade campaign you are actually trying    to convert people – to your product or service.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you are simply trying to make money, you are only doing a small    part of what you can be doing.&lt;br /&gt;Making money is great, but as you’ll see, the purpose of Local Ad    Power type advertising is not just to make a few bucks, but to generate    lifetime customers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lifetime customers… customers who keep coming back, keep referring,    believe in you and what you do and are converts to your business and to    you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is a whole different way of seeing things.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It’s actually a big responsibility to your customers or clients.&lt;br /&gt;You are making an oath of delivering true value to them, and they   are  becoming loyal to you and your business.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is the way to create a true lifetime business, not just a    temporary one.&lt;br /&gt;“Live well, do well and be well”&lt;br /&gt;- Dr. Max&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1'
