We found a new way to advertise

BlueMonday — Wed, 25 Aug 2010 20:28:17 GMT

Hi all,

Just wanted to pass the word about inboxadvertising.com to my fellow biz owners. They were recomended to us by our neighbor (a restaurant) to try. We did and we really like the service. What they do is email marketing to specific zip codes. Not sure if this is an original idea, but we had never heard of it before. There pitch is that many, if not most, of your customers are local and therefore you should advertise directly to them via email. You use their email lists (if you don't have one), they design and send your email to thousands of folks in any zip you want and report the results.

btw - this is NOT a shameless plug for www.inboxadvertising.com. Our company is Blue Monday Studio (www.bluemondaystudio.com)...now THAT was a shameless plug!

Anyway, check them out. It worked for us.

I want to organize a non-profit website that serves as a pool for both little league sponsors as well as league teams. I'm almost finished with the website,whats my next move? I know I need sponsors but where do I look? small buisnesses in my community? I'd really rather shoot higher like honda,target,maybe even kellogs.

What can I post?

New Candy Store in IL

medellinx — Wed, 08 Sep 2010 21:44:35 GMT

Hi, I just recently started my own business in IL. It is a small candy shop located in a great location, meaning there is not another store like it in the vicinity, we have been getting great feedback and people simply like what they see.

I opened pretty much with my the savings that I had on the side, I saw an opportunity and took it. Since we have been opened since May, we keep seeing the revenue grow, most of the money that we are making we are putting right back into the store for new products and pretty much for advertising.
Since it's a new company it was expected a loss specially in the first year, at least that's why I keep hearing so most of the money that I am losing, I am covering it with my own paycheck from my daily job however since the holidays are coming and people specially here in IL tend no to take walks to the candy store too much during the winter I am expecting a decline in sales at least during the holiday.

My question is this? what would be my next step, it is getting harder to keep the store open using my paycheck the store was open as a sole proprietorship and i am not sure it it would be an option to get loans or where to even get one.

Thanks for your feedback.

New real estate franchise

ricardo7 — Tue, 07 Sep 2010 20:41:33 GMT

I plan to start a new real estate franchise based on a model of multiple personal franchises supported by one regional franchise in each state. The concept simulates a bricks wall working all together with coordination and impact image strategy. I have a great name and logo and main office location in Atlanta, GA. but need some advise of experienced pros in the field. Will consider a partnership or any interesting proposal.

Which one is better?

ApparelBrand — Wed, 28 Jul 2010 16:49:14 GMT

Im looking to start a quick business and get it up and running. I thought of two things:

-Getting into the vending machine business, but i thought i should try something new instead of the basic food vending machines. Thoughts of books, electronics, Dvds, stuff like that. PROBLEM: Where to place them.

-Buying a game from China or anything and putting it in any of the theme parks. Something interesting like a fun big maze, or something of that kind. PROBLEM: Which game to choose.

Which one is better? and will return more revenues faster?
