~ The 5 Types Of Female Orgasms ~

1.) The Clitoral Orgasm

A clitoral orgasm is the most common type of female orgasm, and I'm sure you already know that a girl experiences this type of orgasm from clitoral stimulation, usually by your fingers, your tongue, or a toy.

This is the most common female orgasm. Most guys can give this type of orgasm to a girl, so it's likely that most girls you have been with have had one of these orgasms with another guy before you.

2.) The G-Spot Orgasm

A G-spot orgasm is a little more tricky. Some people call this an "internal orgasm", or a "deep spot orgasm", because a girl experiences it from stimulation on the inside of her.

Because of this she gets more of a "full body" sensation than she does from just a clitoral orgasm.

While G-Spot orgasms used to be a mystery, in the last decade or so the word has gotten out, and now more and more guys know how to give a girl these orgasms.

This the type of orgasm a girl is likely to have through penetration if she is with a guy who is good in bed. Special G-Spot orgasm toys have also now become popular with women, so more and more women are having these orgasms on their own.

These internal orgasms feel much better to a girl than a clitoral orgasm, so when a guy can give a girl this type of orgasm she'll automatically consider him to be pretty good in bed.

3.) The Simultaneous Orgasm

A "Simultaneous Orgasm" is when a girl experiences a clitoral orgasm and a G-Spot orgasm at the same time.

This is a difficult one to pull off for a guy, as it requires just the right finger and tongue technique, or finger and penetration technique.

But what's really tough is the TIMING. Even if you have the technique right, the timing has to be perfect.

Because of this it's very hard for a guy to give a girl a Simultaneous Orgasm. Girls who are experienced "self lovers" will have probably had this, but not often, because the feeling is not THAT much better than having the different types of orgasms on their own.

4.) Multiple Orgasms

"Multiple Orgasms" is when a girl experiences either Clitoral or G-Spot orgasms over and over again!

This is a very exciting feeling for a woman, and if a guy has great tongue technique or amazing stamina, he can usually give a girl Multiple Orgasms... and she will consider him to be GREAT in bed!

5.) The Squirting Orgasm

And that brings us to the "The Squirting Orgasm"... which is entirely different than all of the orgasms listed above.

The best way to understand what a Squirting Orgasm feels like for a woman is to think of your own orgasm.

Go ahead and think about what it feels like right now.

Now, imagine how it would feel if you had an orgasm... but NOTHING CAME OUT.

Like if you had the orgasm, but you didn't ejaculate.

Wouldn't it feel WEIRD? Even INCOMPLETE?

Well THIS is what the Clitoral and G-Spot Orgasms feel like for a woman.

But here's the thing:

If they have never had a Squirting Orgasm, they don't KNOW what they are missing.

They THINK a Clitoral or G-Spot Orgasm is the best feeling they can get. After all, it's the best they've ever had.

But then, they meet a guy who can give them a Squirting Orgasm... and...

"OH MY GOD!!!"

It's unlike anything else they've EVER experienced... and makes all other orgasms they've had in the past... seem like nothing!

And from then on, their sex lives are never the same.

Let me explain it to you in a different way:

Think about getting in your own car right now, finding an open road, then GUNNING IT with the pedal to the medal.

Always fun, right?

Well now think about if you got your hands on a Ferrari... and going and doing the same thing.

BIG difference, right??

That's what the difference feels like for a woman between having a Clitoral Orgasm and a G-Spot Orgasm.

But, the difference between the feeling of these types of orgasms, and the feeling of having a Squirting Orgasm...

Is like the difference between taking off in a Ferrari... and...

Getting In The Cockpit Of A FIGHTER JET... And Slamming On The Afterburners Full Force!

VROOOOOOOOOOOM!

What I'm trying to tell is that there is really NO comparision!

Ask any woman who has had a Squirting Orgasm, and she'll tell you the same.

Needless to say, a guy who can give a woman one of these mind-blowing orgasms isn't considered, "good" or even "great" in bed... no sir.

He's Put In A Category ALL His Own!

And that category is simply called...

The BEST She's Ever Had.

No matter what your "size", no matter how long you last, regardless of sexual experience, and even if you do everything else wrong!

When you give your girl this "Ultimate Orgasm"... you've done something that NO other guy has ever done before. From that moment, on she considers you the best she's ever had, period.

The mystery behind the Squirting Orgasm is just being figured out now. Just as the G-Spot orgasm is no longer a mystery, I'm sure 20 years from now everyone will know how to give a girl a squirting orgasm, and it will be no big deal.

But for now, there are just a few of us who are on the cutting edge of this sexual revolution, and we have a HUGE advantage over all other men. Now it's time for you to join us.

Rejuvenation through Yoga

Yoga helps in the rejuvenation of the body. Resistance, observances, posture and pranayam have a major role in rejuvenation. Practice of Yoga maintains the functioning of all physical and mental organs in their natural condition. It is needless to say that functioning of organs in their natural state is the key to good health.

The health obtained through artificial means cannot be said to be stable. Excessive use of medicines makes the organs not only sensitive but it also completely ends the chances of their functioning in natural condition. A medicine that is taken to control one particular disease gives birth to another disease. These physical ailments produce mental disorders.

Different yogic actions in Yoga – Asana, pranayam, austerity, mudra, bandh, shatkarma etc. are used to purify blood, nervous system and vital life. All faecal matter is thrown out of the body, which is the main cause of diseases and disorders. The chariot of life moving on the basis of good food, sleep and celibacy never deviates from the path of good health. Yoga philosophers had fixed the form of the first two steps of Ashtanga Yoga, namely resistance towards passion and observances, were actually the basis of healthy people and healthy society. Resistance towards passion includes not harming other creatures, truth, not stealing other's things, celibacy, not collecting unwanted things which will contribute in building progressive society on one hand and on the other hand, observances like cleanliness, satisfaction, austerity, study of religious books and deep devotion towards God represent the personal development.

It should not be understood that non-violence and other observances are not with the purpose of personal development. Finally, the acceptance of people maintains the discipline of the society. Non-violence and observances except celibacy are relevant to the society.

Whereas, cleanliness etc. are relevant to an individual. Saint Patanjali is claiming the observances as most important vows on this very basis. Patanjali's views are clear that the practitioner of Yoga should not follow nonviolence in the pretext of nation, time and circumstances. Although, nation, time and circumstances could be suitable with respect to cleanliness, austerity, self-study of religious books etc. The word ‘austerity’ used with reference to observances has a broad scope in Indian literature. Saint Patanjali has given a very brief concept in the form of kriya Yoga, self study of religious books and deep devotion towards God along with austerity which is an important part of it. It is clear that austerity is the final outcome of physical and mental energy and consciousness, not exploitation of physical organs. Saint Patanjali considers tolerating dilemmas as austerity. He says that a person has the capacity to bear two kinds of dilemma, namely logic at mental level and energy at physical level.

Indian sages have recognized the dilemmas coming up at physical and mental levels as thirst-hunger, cold-heat, happiness-unhappiness, loss-gain, fame-infamy, victory-defeat, etc. The capacity to bear these confusions is tolerance, which is known as the basic quality of personal, family, social, political, religious and spiritual life.

Austerity has been explained further in some religious texts. The factors of resistance towards passion and observances have been included in physical, verbal and mental types. Actually pretentious luxurious life style destroys the moral strength of a person at a very fast pace. A person who gets used to comfortable life style cannot imagine living without these comforts. A person leading a luxurious life feels handicapped in the absence of comforts and luxuries. The body becomes a bundle of diseases due to this tendency. At this point the nature appears to be an enemy. Austerity is the invitation to sacrifice luxurious life style that is away from the nature. Asana or posture is the most popular branch of Yoga to maintain a balanced physical structure. Saint Patanjali has given a very simple and easy definition of posture.

He says that sitting in a comfortable position is posture. Different writers have different views with respect to number of asanas. One of the interesting views has been expressed in Dhyanbindupanishtkar. According to him, the number of postures is uncountable. It is necessary to strengthen the nerves and muscles in order to lead a healthy life for longer time. The nutritional elements taken in the form of food reach different parts of the body through pranayama. In the absence of this, the body does not develop properly. Posture and light exercises strengthen our respiratory system. The yogasanas are successful treatment for various diseases. An easy and effective treatment for different types of diseases occurring in stomach, back, neck and knees is possible through asana.

Mobile Gyaan

GSM (Global System for Mobile communications: originally from Groupe Spécial Mobile) is the most popular standard for mobile phones in the world. Its promoter, the GSM Association, estimates that 82% of the global mobile market uses the standard GSM is used by over 3 billion people across more than 212 countries and territories.Its ubiquity makes international roaming very common between mobile phone operators, enabling subscribers to use their phones in many parts of the world. GSM differs from its predecessors in that both signalling and speech channels are digital, and thus is considered a second generation (2G) mobile phone system. This has also meant that data communication was easy to build into the system.

In india Vodafone, Airtel, iDEA, BPL use GSM Signaling.
Reliance GSM and Tata DOCOMO have launched their GSM services recently based on Dual License acquisition.
Cost of instrument is low but service cost is high.
Many options are available while choosing handsets



CDMA (Code division multiple access) is a channel access method utilized by various radio communication technologies. It should not be confused with the mobile phone standards called cdmaOne and CDMA2000 (which are often referred to as simply "CDMA"), that use CDMA as their underlying channel access methods. One of the basic concepts in data communication is the idea of allowing several transmitters to send information simultaneously over a single communication channel. This allows several users to share a bandwidth of frequencies. This concept is called multiplexing. CDMA employs spread-spectrum technology and a special coding scheme (where each transmitter is assigned a code) to allow multiple users to be multiplexed over the same physical channel. CDMA is a form of "spread-spectrum" signaling, since the modulated coded signal has a much higher data bandwidth than the data being communicated.

In India MTNL Garuda, Reliance, MTS, Ping, Tata & Virgin Mobile are CDMA signaling providers.
Cost of instrument is high but service cost is less.
Not many options are available for choosing handsets.


What is 2G ?

2G is current signaling, that is second generation of mobile service. This allows you to make basic phone calls, send SMS, Voice Mails and send receive basic emails.
Existing mobiles are capable of providing this service and service cost is cheap.
Speed: 10kb/sec

What is 3G?

3G stands for Third Generation of Mobile Service. This will allow you to perform more on your mobile phone.
- Global roaming
- Send/receive large email messages
- High-speed Web
- Navigation/maps
- Videoconferencing
- Live Television streaming
- Electronic agenda meeting reminder
- Lots of high bandwidth applications like Live Stock updates, view product and shop instantly, Streaming Radios Service.

You need to buy Mobile handset which is capable of receiving 3G service. These phones are little costly.
You will also need to subscribe to 3G service for high bandwidth service. 3G service is not cheap and requires you to pay cost for high data transfer.

Speed: 144kb/sec-2mb/sec

How I’d Hack Your Weak Passwords

If you invited me to try and crack your password, you know the one that you use over and over for like every web page you visit, how many guesses would it take before I got it?
Let’s see… here is my top 10 list. I can obtain most of this information much easier than you think, then I might just be able to get into your e-mail, computer, or online banking. After all, if I get into one I’ll probably get into all of them.
1. Your partner, child, or pet’s name, possibly followed by a 0 or 1 (because they’re always making you use a number, aren’t they?)
2. The last 4 digits of your social security number.
3. 123 or 1234 or 123456.
4. “password”
5. Your city, or college, football team name.
6. Date of birth – yours, your partner’s or your child’s.
7. “god”
8. “letmein”
9. “money”
10. “love”
Statistically speaking that should probably cover about 20% of you. But don’t worry. If I didn’t get it yet it will probably only take a few more minutes before I do…

Hackers, and I’m not talking about the ethical kind, have developed a whole range of tools to get at your personal data. And the main impediment standing between your information remaining safe, or leaking out, is the password you choose. (Ironically, the best protection people have is usually the one they take least seriously.)
One of the simplest ways to gain access to your information is through the use of a Brute Force Attack. This is accomplished when a hacker uses a specially written piece of software to attempt to log into a site using your credentials. Insecure.org has a list of the Top 10 FREE Password Crackers right here.
So, how would one use this process to actually breach your personal security? Simple. Follow my logic:
 You probably use the same password for lots of stuff right?
 Some sites you access such as your Bank or work VPN probably have pretty decent security, so I’m not going to attack them.
 However, other sites like the Hallmark e-mail greeting cards site, an online forum you frequent, or an e-commerce site you’ve shopped at might not be as well prepared. So those are the ones I’d work on.
 So, all we have to do now is unleash Brutus, wwwhack, or THC Hydra on their server with instructions to try say 10,000 (or 100,000 – whatever makes you happy) different usernames and passwords as fast as possible.
 Once we’ve got several login+password pairings we can then go back and test them on targeted sites.
 But wait… How do I know which bank you use and what your login ID is for the sites you frequent? All those cookies are simply stored, unencrypted and nicely named, in your Web browser’s cache. (Read this post to remedy that problem.)
And how fast could this be done? Well, that depends on three main things, the length and complexity of your password, the speed of the hacker’s computer, and the speed of the hacker’s Internet connection.
Assuming the hacker has a reasonably fast connection and PC here is an estimate of the amount of time it would take to generate every possible combination of passwords for a given number of characters. After generating the list it’s just a matter of time before the computer runs through all the possibilities – or gets shut down trying.
Pay particular attention to the difference between using only lowercase characters and using all possible characters (uppercase, lowercase, and special characters – like @#$%^&*). Adding just one capital letter and one asterisk would change the processing time for an 8 character password from 2.4 days to 2.1 centuries.

Remember, these are just for an average computer, and these assume you aren’t usingany word in the dictionary. If Google put their computer to work on it they’d finish about 1,000 times faster.
Now, I could go on for hours and hours more about all sorts of ways to compromise your security and generally make your life miserable – but 95% of those methods begin withcompromising your weak password. So, why not just protect yourself from the start and sleep better at night?
Believe me, I understand the need to choose passwords that are memorable. But if you’re going to do that how about using something that no one is ever going to guess AND doesn’t contain any common word or phrase in it.
Here are some password tips:
1. Randomly substitute numbers for letters that look similar. The letter ‘o’ becomes the number ’0′, or even better an ‘@’ or ‘*’. (i.e. – m0d3ltf0rd… like modelTford)
2. Randomly throw in capital letters (i.e. – Mod3lTF0rd)
3. Think of something you were attached to when you were younger, but DON’T CHOOSE A PERSON’S NAME! Every name plus every word in the dictionary will fail under a simple brute force attack.
4. Maybe a place you loved, or a specific car, an attraction from a vacation, or a favorite restaurant?
5. You really need to have different username / password combinations for everything. Remember, the technique is to break into anything you access just to figure out your standard password, then compromise everything else. This doesn’t work if you don’t use the same password everywhere.
6. Since it can be difficult to remember a ton of passwords, I recommend using Roboformfor Windows users. It will store all of your passwords in an encrypted format and allow you to use just one master password to access all of them. It will also automatically fill in forms on Web pages, and you can even get versions that allow you to take your password list with you on your PDA, phone or a USB key. If you’d like to download it without having to navigate their web site here is the direct download link.
7. Mac users can use 1Password. It is essentially the same thing as Roboform, except for Mac, and they even have an iPhone application so you can take them with you too.
8. Once you’ve thought of a password, try Microsoft’s password strength tester to find out how secure it is.
By request I also created a short RoboForm Tutorial. Hope it helps…
Another thing to keep in mind is that some of the passwords you think matter leastactually matter most. For example, some people think that the password to their e-mail box isn’t important because “I don’t get anything sensitive there.” Well, that e-mail box is probably connected to your online banking account. If I can compromise it then I can log into the Bank’s Web site and tell it I’ve forgotten my password to have it e-mailed to me. Now, what were you saying about it not being important?
Often times people also reason that all of their passwords and logins are stored on their computer at home, which is save behind a router or firewall device. Of course, they’ve never bothered to change the default password on that device, so someone could drive up and park near the house, use a laptop to breach the wireless network and then try passwords from this list until they gain control of your network – after which time they will own you!
Now I realize that every day we encounter people who over-exaggerate points in order to move us to action, but trust me this is not one of those times. There are 50 other ways you can be compromised and punished for using weak passwords that I haven’t even mentioned.
I also realize that most people just don’t care about all this until it’s too late and they’ve learned a very hard lesson. But why don’t you do me, and yourself, a favor and take a little action to strengthen your passwords and let me know that all the time I spent on this article wasn’t completely in vain.
Please, be safe. It’s a jungle out there.

How to increase Synchronicities in your life!

This is a rich & lengthy subject, but I've highlighted some key points below, & will be sharing more with you in future series' :)


1. Raise your Vibration! The higher your vibration, the more likely you are to experience synchronicities and ride the loving current of universal flow, receiving magical blessings as you go!

How do you raise your vibration? There are numerous ways to do so on physical, mental, emotional and spiritual levels, which I'll be sharing more about in future issues.

For the purposes of this article, I'll nutshell some examples...

Love is the highest vibration in the universe; hence love for yourself, others and your world will ALWAYS raise your vibration. And gratitude can help open your heart to more of that love.

I cover 10 ways to raise your vibration in the Vibrational Manifesting Guide section of my Miracle Mind Manifesting Program.

Essentially, the happier and more love-filled you are, the more aligned you are with your true nature and Source, and the more open a receptor you are to synchronicities and blessings and receiving in general, which is key!

One powerful way to raise your vibration is to work energetically to anchor in high pure universal energies of love and light.

I guide you through a process for doing this in my ‘Earth Light' meditation (that also comes with the Intuition Zone Program), which grounds love and light frequencies through your being.

2. Another way to increase synchronicities in your life is to believe in them more, and keep your eye out for them!

Understanding the illusory nature of reality, that everything is energy, can open you more to everyday magic!

You are a spiritual being having a physical experience. Reality is not the solid world you believe it to be. Magic and miracles are WAY possible! Energy is malleable. Reality is a trick of the light.

There is love, insights and wonders that want to be gifted to you from higher realms if you open and allow, and start to take of the blindfolds of consensus thinking that can limit the WONDER and MAGIC of each moment!

3. Know you loved totally and unconditionally by the source of creation, whatever name you hold for that. Know that this loving infinitely intelligent source wants the very best for you in every moment! You are the only one that can stand in your way, and the limiting beliefs, thoughts and feelings you hold that can block the love and success you desire and deserve.

You are loved more than you will ever know!

And you deserve whether you believe it or not, so BELIEVE IT!

Know that you worthy of all good things, and open to receive! :)

Some of the main core limiting self-beliefs that we hold are covered in the Belief Buster Kit, along with how to clear them of course, including the Belief Buster Meditation that rids them at a subconscious level.

4. Set goals. Ask for what you want. Write out a wish list. Affirm your intentions. Say your desires out loud or silently in your mind before sleep and/or on waking. In whatever way you like, affirm your desires to yourself and the universe.

The Vision Sheets section of the Miracle Mind Manifesting Program contains a procedure for setting goals aligned to your heart's desires.

When you set goals and specify desired outcomes, and visualize these, stepping into the shoes of that future you (which you can do with the Manifesting Blueprint meditation as part of the Miracle Mind Manifesting Program at this link), you set the ball in motion and the universe will start arranging things for your benefit! :)

You create your reality – do your bit with the power of your heart and mind by visualizing your dreams regularly, clearing limiting beliefs that stand in the way, and feeling the outcomes richly and tangibly ahead of time to call them into existence in the present.

5. Have FUN! Fun throws of the shackles of denser energy and negative states, elevating you to higher happy realms where flow and synchronicities abound!

Fun attracts positivity like iron filings to a magnet. It is the antidote to stress, struggle, tediousness and seriousness. When you are having fun you are open and sharing of who you are and ride on the current of spontaneity and joy. What brings you fun, happiness and joy? Commit to more of it in all areas of your life.

6. Start awakening to and decoding the ‘magical messages ' present in your everyday life!

I cover this in the Decoding Inner and Outer Reality section of my Intuition Zone program at: www.intuitionzone.com

It includes lots of examples, and a looks at the various ‘message platforms' in day-to-day life, as well as specific examples of signs and metaphors, and what to look out for.

Just as night dreams are rich in symbolic meaning, so is your waking reality!

It is essentially an illusion, a sea of vibrating energy that appears very solid, but is not at all!

When you understand the nature of reality at a deeper level, you realize it can be a vehicle through which you can receive insights, nudges and opportunities.

Awakening to this can be magical, illuminating, and transformational, especially when you become more adept at decoding these messages!

Become a detective of your outer reality! Unveil and unravel its secrets!

I LOVE listening to the ‘whispers' and decoding the hidden meanings and messages inherent in the situations, people and circumstances I attract.

Even the title of a book someone's reading next to you on a plane, email subject lines, overheard snippets of conversation, a song that comes on the radio, advertising headlines, a flyer that crosses your path etc., can all hold relevance.

Life is not just some random set of experiences separate from you.

As quantum physics now proves, you and your world are inextricably linked!

Understanding the communications in your world is not only fascinating and illuminating, but for me has been totally LIFE-CHANGING!

The insights and messages I've received with an intuitive path have led to the manifestation of success, abundance, and living the life of my dreams.

I have had countless magic moments and wondrous synchronicities and opportunities by opening my eyes and mind to the metaphoric nature of reality and the gifts and guidance there-in, which I explore fully in the Intuition Zone.

Decoding reality is what makes life so magical to me, and an exciting journey of investigation and discovery!

Engaging this new dimension of guidance will enable you to take your manifestation to the next level and CATAPULT the Law of Attraction to new domains, because it will help guide you rapidly to what's in your highest; to brightest futures and dreams-come-true!

11 Things That Annoy Decision Makers

Selling in today’s highly competitive business world requires more effort and energy than ever. However, there are certain things that can work against you, especially when you sell in a B2B environment.

Sales people do a variety of things that annoy decision makers and prospects and prevent them from moving the sales process forward.

Here are a few things that irk decision makers.

1. Sales people who can’t articulate their value proposition. Far too few sales people can adequately and clearly state the value that their product(s) or service offers. Forget what your marketing department tells you to say. Instead, speak in terms that matter to your prospect and help them see—within 15-30 seconds—how your product, service or solution will benefit them.

2. Sales people who call to “touch base” or “check in.” Decision makers are far too busy to talk to people who don’t have a genuine or valuable offer to consider. “Checking in” is no longer a viable sales strategy. You need to ensure that you are providing some type of value in EVERY interaction you have with a prospect or existing customer.

3. Sales people that go overtime during sales calls and presentations. Most decision makers spend the bulk of their day in meetings and have little tolerance for sales calls that go into overtime. Respect your prospect’s time and strive to finish every meeting early or ahead of schedule.

4. Sales people who misrepresent themselves to executive assistants in order to get connected with the decision maker. It boggles my mind that people actually believe this strategy will help them close a deal! Yet, it happens every day. A better approach is to befriend the EA and enlist her help.

5. Sales people that ask basic questions that could be answered by a subordinate or a quick browse through the prospect’s website. I made this mistake a number of years when talking to the President of a mid-sized business. Instead of asking high-value questions that were strategic in nature I focused on details that could easily have been answered by a Regional Manager—which, not surprisingly, is where I ended up getting shunted to.

6. Sales people that deliver a canned pitch, presentation or proposal. I still can’t believe how many reps launch into a canned pitch instead of adapting and tailoring their presentation to each prospect’s situation. Of course, this is usually a result of doing little or no research prior to the meeting.

7. Sales people who leave a long and rambling voice mail message with little or no value. “Hi Mr. Prospect, it’s Derek with No Claim Insurance. We specialize in helping businesses like yours reduce their insurance premiums. We have been doing this since 1978 and our client list includes companies like…” You get the idea. A VM with little or no value will be deleted within seconds.

8. Sales people who claim their solution is “easy” to implement. Nothing in business is easy anymore and pretending otherwise just reduces your credibility. It is far more effective to tell people up front what will be required and follow that up with exactly how you will help them integrate your solution into their business.

9. Sales people that use outdated closing tactics. “Would you prefer red or black?” “If I could show you how my product will save you time will you buy it?” I shudder every time I hear someone use a tactic that was developed in the mid-late 1990s. Times have changed. Prospects and decision makers are smarter, wiser and using tired, manipulative closing tactics only alienates them.

10. Sales people that waste time trying to “build rapport”. “Hey, I see you fish; I fish too. Where do you like to fish?” Gaaaaag! Do you REALLY think a busy decision maker wants to talk about his fishing excursions?

Although it’s possible, it’s more likely he (or she) wants you to get to the point of the meeting and the reason for your call. True rapport happens when you demonstrate that you respect their time, understand their business issues AND can offer a solution to those problems.

11. Sales people who misrepresent their offering. If you took everything some people said at face value, their product could cure all of life’s miseries and every problem a business faces. But we know that isn’t reality. Unfortunately, many sales people still feel compelled to overstate the capabilities of their solution in an effort to capture the deal.

Hopefully, you aren’t guilty of irking your prospects with these. Once you instigate the irk factor, it becomes much more difficult to move the sales process forward.

6 Low-Cost Marketing Strategies

Small businesses must be extra imaginative with their marketing efforts in order to attract customers and get them to open their wallets. Even more challenging is that most entrepreneurs have shallow pockets and shoppers are being more selective as a result of the sluggish economy and volatile stock market. The following are six proven low-cost marketing ideas that help small businesses increase sales and generate referrals, ultimately helping you build your cash cow, while spending very little

Get Out and Walk
Next time you walk down a street with high foot-traffic, pay attention to storefront windows underutilized. Approach the store owner and offer to pay a small fee to advertise your business in their window. Imagine, you pay $50 per month for a location that costs someone else $2500 a month in rent. This idea also works in reverse. If you’re the store owner with great window visibility, approach other entrepreneurs and offer them an affordable advertising opportunity.

Special Deal Today Only
The next time business is slow, try sending out an email to your prospect list that reads, "Please call me. I have a special deal I can offer you if you call me today. You'll be glad you did! (978) 000-0000. Thanks, Sharron." This method really works. Prospects call because of the urgency you create using such a short deadline and to make sure they don’t miss out on a worthy opportunity. Be careful. You’ll lose credibility with your prospects if your offer isn’t aggressive enough, i.e., 10% off won’t cut it!

Under Your Nose
Are your vendors doing business with you? Why not? Here’s a short list of the prospects you should contact within 48 hours of reading this article, your: accountant, attorney, plumber, electrician, daycare provider, housekeeper, greens keeper, mechanic, realtor, friends, family, minister/priest/rabbi, etc., dentist, physician, gynecologist, nail technician, hairdresser, Mary Kay Consultant, marriage counselor, coach, personal trainer, financial advisor, etc. If you and your vendor are not a match, he or she probably knows someone who should be doing business with you. All you have to do is ask your vendor to provide some word-of-mouth about you. At minimum, ask to display your business cards and flyers at their office, or to mention your business in their customer newsletter. Take a moment and make sure people in your immediate circle understand what you’re selling.

Customers on the Fence
Before you send off your next proposal, call your prospect and tell her the proposal she requested is ready. Tell her you'd like to forward the proposal, but before you do, ask her what time tomorrow would be convenient to discuss the proposal. Remember, always set up your next appointment before releasing any information.

Charge at Least Five Bucks
Always charge a fee for all your event marketing efforts. Fee-paid seminars and workshops almost always generate more participants than free events. The fee does two things. First, when you charge for something, there’s an implied "value" built in. Your prospect will believe they "get more" when they pay, versus not paying. Second, when a prospect pays you, they’re showing a commitment and are now a more qualified prospect and more likely to show up. Don’t just take my word for it; test it. It’s true.

Stimulate Customer Senses
Do you think the smell of fresh baking bread flowing throughout the grocery store or music playing is by chance? Absolutely not. Retail businesses have been going out of their way for years to stimulate shoppers and keep them browsing. Stimulating the senses works outside of bricks and mortars too. For example, let’s say you're a business development expert and you're getting ready to mail your quarterly newsletter on white stock. Instead, try a red or pink-hued paper. Or, if you’d prefer to remain conservative, use a white textured stock. Another example: There's nothing worse than the smell of a disinfectant used in a doctor's office. Try burning vanilla candles in the waiting room, they’ll help sooth your customers while they wait. If your business is notorious for long waiting room times, fresh baked cookies work well.

Remember, the more comfortable we keep our customers, the longer they’ll stay, the more memorable experience they’ll have and the more they’ll spend, or pass on positive word-of-mouth. When you’re planning your next marketing activity, remember to stimulate your customers’ senses, including eyes, ears, nose and mouth.
