By Debbie LaChusa Most marketing experts will tell you that you need select a niche or a target audience. That you can't just market to "whoever is paying attention" and be successful. Why is that? Think about it this way: if you are having a conversation with a total stranger, how do you know what to talk about? Unless you are able to find some common ground, the conversation will probably be short-lived. Because neither of you have an understanding of the other, you must find a way to make a connnection to involve each other into the conversation. The same holds true for marketing. You must make a connection with your audience if you want them to pay attention and stay around to find out what your product or service is all about. And, in order to make a connection, you have to know something about them. You have to know what problems they have that you can help to solve. You have to understand them. That is why it is so important to select a niche or clearly defined target audience. Because once you've selected a distinct group of people you believe you can best help, you can research them so you begin to understand them. Then and only then can you really communicate effectively with them. And that's what marketing is; communication. But once you've identified your target or niche, you must also be able to find and market to them. The first step in doing that is to define them more specifically. How? My suggestion is to ask yourself the following 10 questions to help develop a very clear description of your target. Then it will become much clearer to you where you can find them. You may need to make some educated guesses when answering these questions and that's okay. It's a start and you can always refine your answers as your business grows and you begin to understand your target more. As I go through these 10 questions, I'm going to use an example of a client of mine who is a life coach who wants to help adults who are childhood victims of maltreatment or victimization, improve their health and wellness. Why am I using this example? Because it is a clearly defined group, BUT these people do not wear a sign around their neck advertising who they are. So, they can be difficult to find and market to. Therefore, it makes a great example. You can apply these same 10 questions to your business or niche, regardless of what they are. They are universal questions that apply to any type of business or target audience. 1. What is their primary problem you can help solve? Our life coach needs to clearly identify the current problem her potential clients are dealing with as a result of their childhood maltreatment. That is the problem she can position herself to help them overcome. Is it relationship issues? Is it job issues? Be as specific and focused as possible. 2. Are they primarily male or female? Our life coach has identified her target as females. 3. How old are they? Our life coach says they are high functioning professional women. In that case, I'd say we're primarily talking about women between the ages of 25 and 45 years old. 4. Where do they live? What type of community or neighborhood; urban area; suburban area? Also, do you have any geographic limitations (real or self-imposed) regarding where you can market or deliver your services or products? If they are high functioning professional women, they likely live in a nicer suburban neighborhood or perhaps an urban area. Our life coach will need to identify where she believes the majority live in her area and whether she only wants to work with women in her immediate geographic area, or if she wants to do distance coaching. 5. What type of work do they do? And where do they likely work? Their type of business as well as geographic location. Professional women could be corporate professionals, doctors, attorneys, entrepreneurs or solo-professionals. Our life coach will need to identify the fields she wishes to focus on, taking into consideration the ones she feels include the greatest number of her target clients. 6. What is their socio-economic status or annual household income? High functioning professional women are probably enjoying financial success, making them of a higher socio-economic class. They probably earn a good income and enjoy the finer things in life. Money is probably not an issue. 7. How do they spend their leisure time? Do they belong to a gym or health club? Do they go to the movies or out to dinner frequently? Or, do they have young children and spend their time at elementary school functions, family picnics, children's birthday parties or weekend soccer tournaments? Our life coach may need to make some assumptions here based on what she knows about her target. Again, that's okay to start with. She can always fine-tune this later as she begins to understand these women better. 8. What is their family structure or home environment? This niche of professional women probably includes single women as well as those who are married and have children. Therefore their home environments may vary. They may have no support or family network. They may have strong family support. Or, they may be having issues with their family based on their past. Our life coach will need to keep this in mind when she selects marketing avenues and writes her marketing messages. She'll want to focus on what they have in common and steer away from areas of abiguity. 9. Do they belong to any associations or professional organizations? If our life coach selects one or several industries to target, she should be able to easily identify associations or professional organizations these women belong to. Once identified, these are excellent venues for networking and speaking opportunities. 10. What are their media habits? Do they read the newspaper or magazines? If so, which ones? Listen to the radio? If so, which formats do they likely listen to? Do they watch TV? If so, which programs do they likely watch? Do they spend time on the Internet? If so, what kinds of web sites do you think they are visiting? Where do you think they are currently getting their information about health and wellness? These are all potential places to reach your niche with your marketing message. Yes, again our life coach may need to make some assumptions. However all of these media can provide you with detailed demographic profiles of their audience. So if we're looking for professional women in a certain geographic area, we'll be able to find out if they are among the audiences for these different mediums. Answer each of these 10 questions to the best of your ability. Talk to current clients to get insights. Or, talk to friends or colleagues who fit your client profile to gain a better understanding of who and where they are. Once you build this target client description, you'll have a much better sense of where you can find them. The next step is putting together a marketing message that speaks directly to them and what they are dealing with. The more you understand them, the more you'll be able to craft a message that will hit home with them. That message will become your magnet, attracting the people who you can best help.

By Daisy Wright Do you know anyone who is afraid of talking about himself, afraid to blow his own horn? I am not referring to a narcissistic person who believes he is the greatest thing since sliced bread. I mean someone who is reluctant to let others know about his on-the-job or personal successes. Talking about oneself tends to conjure up images of conceit, self-centredness, egotism and the likes. Its especially difficult when so many of us have been conditioned to believe that it is wrong to call attention to ourselves. On the contrary, its when we dont, that opportunities pass us by. A chance for promotion eludes us because we believe the boss already knows what we can do. I remember in grade school if someone started talking about himself and how great he was, we would tell him that self-praise is no recommendation. That expression taught us to wait for others to shower us with praise; to wait on others to give us permission to acknowledge our accomplishments. We become adults and we find it difficult to acknowledge the role we played in the success of an event or a project. We sit back and watch others claim our successes because we are too afraid to speak up. In fact, even when others commend us for a job well done, we become embarrassed and downplay our role by saying its all a part of the job. Taking credit for your accomplishments, in or outside the workplace, is not bragging. Its admitting to yourself that you played an important role just like the others on the team. If you dont take the credit somebody else will. Time and again I hear clients downplay their contributions because its all a part of the job. One man told me he had interviewed for a managers position last year with his employer, a leading telecommunications company, and did not get the job. When he asked for feedback, he was told that he did not sell himself well. In other words, he did not blow his horn loud enough. When I asked him why he did not promote himself in the interview, he said the director knew him and knew what he could do. Thats a passive approach to take during an interview. He was too modest and believed if he had called attention to his achievements he would have been labeled egocentric. Another client invented a safety product, which his company sold exclusively to a major home renovations company, and for which the company obtained a patent. When asked if he was recognized for the invention, he said No, because it was all a part of the job. He did not claim his success because he it was simply all a part of the job. To him, it was no big deal but to the company it was a big deal as it continues to reap huge financial rewards. I advise people clients and others who will listen that modesty has its place, but if they dont blow their own horns, no one will know they are coming. Its the candidate who knows how to blow her horn without being obnoxious is the one who will move ahead. So, the next time the boss asks to state what you have accomplished over the past year, be prepared to confidently blow your horn and claim your successes without appearing conceited.

By Victor Epand As with anything on the internet, you'll need to do some research? Assuming you have not chosen an invitation/company already, you'll want to do some in-person research at your local stationery stores. Look at the large invitation company books, and be critical of everything: do you like the look of the printing? How heavy is the paper sample? How long does it take to place an order, and then how long before you receive a proof? How long between approval of the proof and delivery of the final invitations? Finally - how much will it cost for the invitation company to do everything you'd like? Can you choose which enclosures to include? Or is it a standard set? Once you have a good idea of what you like, you can either search for a dealer online for the specific invitation you like. When you find one, look for their policy page -- what are their policies for timing, delivery, ordering? Do they have a secure ordering site that's been verified as "Hacker-safe" by a reputable agency? Or do they only take orders by phone and fax? Some invitation companies, such as my own, are very small -- that doesn't necessarily make them any less reputable, but you might want to take some additional things into consideration: how professional is the site? Is there a binding contract (particularly if you're looking for custom work)? Again, you'll want to look into policies for timing, delivery, and ordering. With a smaller company, I would also suggest finding a phone number and calling and speaking with the owner of the company. Are you comfortable with this person, and their knowledge and level of professional service? If not, consider working with someone else. When it comes to the enclosure cards, you can always do them yourself. However, there are advantages to having them printed at the same time as your invitations. These advantages are that the papers will match exactly -- there won't be any difference between the color of "ivory" paper from your invitation vendor, and the "ivory" paper you pick up on your own. The fonts, spacing and overall look and feel will be more cohesive if you have your invitation vendor create the additional enclosure pieces, as well. Finally, I always recommend ordering a sample before you purchase, even if you must pay for it. There is nothing more valuable than being able to see for yourself if the paper is heavy enough, the type of printing is what you'd like, and the color is what you expect. All of those things are difficult to represent on a monitor. There are some that considering sending cute black & white postcards for wedding invitations. Just regular black & white postcards that can be purchased in retail store, and then they can write on the back. You can pick out what style of black & white that you would want. Go to a store that you might thing they have it and have them order them in bulk. It's unconventional and fun! There are a couple of things you should consider (if you haven't already), though, if you decide to go this route: First, because it's such an informal invitation, your guests will assume it's an informal wedding. If you want everyone to show up in black tie (or at least in business casual wear), you'll have to be pretty explicit about that in the invitation wording, or find a way to let everyone know by word of mouth. Then because you obviously can't include anything with the postcard, you'll need to have a way for your guests to respond as to whether or not they'll be able to come. If your guests are very internet savvy, then a web address (you'll need to set up a webpage to take responses) or email address ought to do the trick. If there are a lot of senior citizens on your guest list (not to stereotype, but many older folks are a bit techno-phobic), you might want to provide a phone number for your guests to call and rsvp instead. There are "1-800" phone number services out there especially for wedding responses...I haven't used them, but I've heard of them. It would be a nice gesture to provide a toll-free number for your guests to call and let you know, so they won't have to pay any long distance charges. Other than those two things, I really don't see a problem with the postcards. It's unusual that anyone would receive a hand-written invitation anymore, and that's a really nice, personal touch.

By Ken Marlborough Counseling helps couples to rediscover themselves and their love for each other. They arrive at this realization only after numerous counseling sessions. Family counseling or therapy is a method that deals with crisis situations when it is vital that the extended family comes together to support the couple undergoing the stress and strain. The problems in the marriage affect the family and the children. It is important for the counselor to advice the family so that they can deal with the stress with more understanding. Couple counseling and psychotherapy is a method of counseling. This is the most important type of counseling as it involves the couple directly. This counseling has to be done deliberately for the differences to be drawn out and resolved. It is the job of counselor to open up the closed communication channels, as this will help the couple to improve their relationship exponentially. Individual counseling and psychotherapy has to be resorted to by the counselor at times. This is of importance as the warring couple, at times, would not be frank about their relationship in the presence of the spouse. Group counseling and psychotherapy can be used along with individual and couple therapy. In this, the couple individually, as well as together, are grouped with others facing similar problems. There are various group discussions as well as lectures organized. This helps couples come out with their problems in front of others and to know that they are not the only couples facing such tension. The work of a marriage or relationship counselor is usually to help the couple communicate and develop feelings for each other. They help the couple to explore ways to stay together in a positive and fulfilling manner. Finally, if all of this does not work and the couple can not manage to solve their problems, the counselor can help them to have an agreeable and civil separation.

By Paul Foley Is there any truth to the statement that muscle burns fat. It seems like there are a lot more fat people than there are muscular ones. Let's try and answer the questions if muscle burns fat why aren't there more people working on getting more muscles? One of the most common things you will hear if you go to join a fitness club is how working on building muscles will help you get rid of some of your fat. A common number is you hear is one pound of resting muscle will burn up to 50 calories a day. The problem is that unless you are getting aerobic exercise and alter the number of calories you eat everyday you are just not going to burn fat and lose weight. Muscle does burn calories which in turn burns fat, but not as much as you wold think. To determine how many calories a person burns at rest, scientists calculate a persons Resting Metabolic Rate, which is based on the persons amount of lean body mass. Each pound of lean body mass, which includes skeletal muscle, burns a bit over 13 calories a day at rest. Let's look at a175 pound man with 10% body fat. This man has 157.5 pounds of lean body mass and a resting metabolic rate of 2178 calories a day. What if he wants to lose weight. Let's look at two methods. With Method A, the man begins his muscle-building program and manages to gain one pound of fat-free bodyweight in one week, increasing his lean body mass by one pound of extra muscle. He continues this for a total of 10 weeks, and he gains a total of 10 pounds of muscle. His body now burns about 130 additional calories a day. At this point, if this man does not increase his initial daily maintenance calorie intake by 130 calories, he will lose 910 calories from body fat in a week. At this rate of body fat loss, it will take him about 27 days to lose a pound of body fat. So, the grand total for the amount of time it takes him to lose one pound of body fat is 10 weeks plus 27 days, which equals about 3.5 months! And, this assumes he didn't gain any extra body fat while gaining muscle. With Method B, this man could lose the same amount of body fat in a few days simply by reducing his daily maintenance calorie intake by 500 calories, and increasing his daily calorie expenditures by 500 calories. This should dispel the myth that muscle burns fat. We all need more muscle and less fat, but to get to that point we are going to have to eat right and get the proper amount of aerobic exercise on a daily, or at the very least, several times a week basis.

By [http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Carrie_Reeder]Carrie Reeder In need of some quick cash but dont know where to go? Look to an
online no fax payday loan lender to get you approved the same day for your
cash advance. In just a few hours, you can have your money wired
directly to your checking account for easy access. Online Payday Loans Approved Same Day With the internet, payday loan lenders have perfected their systems so
applications can be approved in a matter of minutes. With a no fax
application, you enter your basic personal information, along with your
checking account routing and bank number. Through their secure servers, cash advance companies can quickly
process your virtual form through their databases. If there are any glitches,
they can call you to remedy the situation. Easy Loan Requirements For Small Loans Payday loans typically extend for two weeks or less. With amounts
approved up to $1000, these small personal loans are designed to help you
get through a temporary financial emergency. So there are no credit checks, collateral, or asset requirements. You
just have to prove that you have a regular source of income, open
checking account, and a place of contact. And with a no fax process, you
dont even have to find all your financial documentation. Better Rates By Shopping Around While the average finance fee is around 15%, you can find better rates
by shopping around. For easy comparison, payday loan companies post the
loan fees as APR, what the loan would cost for the year. The other
option is to look at finance fees for each loan period. If you are willing to pay a little extra, you can get your money even
faster. Instead of waiting overnight for funds to transfer, you can have
money in a few hours. Easy Payments Automatic Just like your application was easy, payments are also quick. When you
submit your application, you also specify your repayment date.
Automatically your lender will deduct the payment amount from your checking
account. You dont have to worry about waiting for another bill in the
mail. If you do need to extend your payment, you can easily work this out
with your lender. By just paying the minimum finance fee, you can extend
your payment for another pay period. Carrie Reeder is the owner of [http://www.abcloanguide.com]http://www.abcloanguide.com. View her recommended sources for an online payday loan.

By Ryan Lance Jeffery Hello Friends, In todays issue we will deal with the prophetic significance of identity. Did you know that you cannot truly understand who you are without knowing your place and role in prophecy? You may say, "how can one make such a statement?" Its fairly simple. Jesus left us an example. He came to a proper knowledge of himself through the revelations of prophecy. You can do the same thing. Do you believe that you are alive in this segment of earths history by coincidence? No friend, you were born by providence! This will give you a sense of purpose beyond your mere name. SELF-IDENTITY Speaking of names, in Bible times parents did not haphazardly give their children names. Often they would study the childs character and seek God before giving a name. For every name carried significance and preached a sermon in itself. Names corresponded with some vital endowment of character. For some time I heeded the silly suggestion to alter my name on the internet by using Lance Ryan instead of Ryan Lance Jeffery. Yet, to alter spiritual identity is something of far greater crisis. Understanding your place in prophetic history will help you appropriately respond to the world from Gods assessment and counsel. Christ devised a method whereby we can bypass our surface identity; determine who we really are and what we should be doing. How exciting! Now, let us find where we are in prophetic history. THE GREATEST WEALTH OF PROPHETIC SIGNS Gods Church displays the greatest evidence of where we are prophetically. Let us parallel the experience of the early apostolic church and recognize how that history is now repeated! During Pentecost, the spirit of God was poured on the disciples to proclaim the truth about Jesus. In the second chapter of Acts, Peter gives a prophetic discourse to the Jews. By reading below the surface we recognize this is not a sermon to the common people. Peter is speaking to the devout men who were in attendance at Pentecost. For Acts 2:5 reads, And there were dwelling at Jerusalem Jews, devout men, out of every nation under heaven. Remember the prophecy of Daniel 9 allotted 3.5 years for the gospel to be specifically given to the Jews after the death of Christ. We will review this shortly. In Acts 2 Peter proved prophetically and historically that Gods own people crucified Christ. This was not preached in a spirit of condemnation! Many of the devout men of the Jewish nation were deceived by the higher learning of their day. The Bible records their heart anguish as they received this truth in the following words, WHAT SHALL WE DO? Now when they heard this, they were pricked in their heart, and said unto Peter and to the rest of the apostles, Men and brethren, what shall we do? Acts 2:37 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. Acts 2:38
UPSTANDING CHURCH MEMBERS REBAPTIZED? Peter told them repent and be baptized. Is it possible devout men would need to repent? This is what the scripture says. Look at the warning in vs. 40, 41 And with many other words did he testify and exhort, saying, save yourselves from this untoward (crooked) generation. Acts 2:40. Then they that gladly received his word were baptized: and the same day there were added unto them about three thousand souls. Acts 2:41
On the day of Pentecost the 3,000 were devout men who belonged to Gods true church. God had a plan to save his church. What is Gods plan to save the church of today? Let us continue. GODS INREACH RESCUE PLAN Read Acts 1:1-15- Jesus has left and he told his disciples to go into the upper room. They studied the Old Testament prophecies that apply to the Messiah and proved to themselves that Christ is indeed the Messiah!
Acts1:17- Judas was a part of a ministry. Who started the Ministry? Jesus started a ministry, for the express reason of saving his church (the devout men, his chosen, etc.). Therefore, Christ instructed his disciples, But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel (Matthew 10:6). Here is a quote from a book on the life of Christ entitled, The Desire of Ages: The burden of Christ preaching was, THE TIME IS FULFILLED, and the kingdom of God is at hand; repent ye, and believe the gospel. Thus the gospel message, as given by the Saviour Himself, was based on the prophecies. The time which He declared to be fulfilled was the period made known by the angel Gabriel to Daniel. SEVENTY WEEKS, said the angel, are determined upon thy people and upon thy holy city, to FINISH THE TRANSGRESSION, and to make an END OF SINS, and to make RECONCILIATION FOR INIQUITY, and to BRING IN EVERLASTING RIGHTEOUSNESS, and to SEAL UP THE VISION AND PROPHECY, and to ANNOINT THE MOST HOLY. Dan. 9:24----Desire of Ages pg. 233 CHRIST MISSION WAS FUELED BY PROPHECY, IS YOURS? By 27 A.D. the ministry of Jesus was active at the exact time prophecy foretold. Consequently, the Jews had seven years left to accept Jesus as the Messiah. The Jews were Gods chosen people when Jesus started his rescue ministry. In Acts 1:22-25 they chose Mathias to be a part of the original ministry of Christ to replace Judas (the crooked treasurer). WHY DID JESUS START HIS OWN MINISTRY? Why did Jesus start his own ministry when he could have submitted to the duties of the organized church? Was Jesus an offshoot? No friends, he was an in shoot. After the fame of Christ was broadcast all about, he returned to a Sabbath service in his hometown of Nazareth. During service he read from the prophecy of Isaiah. The bible reads in Luke 4:17, And there was delivered unto him the book of the prophet Esaias, And when he had opened the book, he found the place where it was written, The spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised,. After reading, Christ passes the book back to the minister and everyone stared in amazement. In fact, his testimony was so catered to the time he stated, THIS DAY is the scripture fulfilled in your ears (Luke 4:21).
CHRIST MINISTRY BEARS THE PROPHETIC STAMP When the church recognized his mission was designed for them, there was a change in the audience. And they said, is not this Josephs son (Luke 4:22). It was Christ who declared, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel (Matt. 15:24). Yet, he was known as a carpenter at his home church. Besides, Jesus did not have a degree in theology. Who gave him license to speak? Jesus knowing their hearts said, No prophet is accepted in his own country (Luke 4:24). CHURCH RESPONSE TO CHRIST MINISTRY Lets see how happy the church was when the truth entered the service: And all they in the synagogue, when they heard these things, were filled with wrath, And rose up, and thrust him out of the city, and led him unto the brow of the hill whereon their city was built, that they might cast him down headlong. But he passing through the midst of them went his way, (Luke 4:28-30). Jesus escaped, for according to prophecy he had a couple of years left before he was to die. Notice this point. Jesus symbolizes the truth. In John 14:6 Christ declared, I am the way, THE TRUTH, and the life: A church today who crucifies the truth represents a modern day type of the crucifixion of Christ. Will you be innocent of the blood of Christ? Now we have greater understanding when we read Luke 4:18- Where were the poor? In the church. Where were the broken hearted & captives? In the church. Who needed recovery of sight? The church. Satan had the Jewish nation captive. They used to be able to see. THIS DAY IS THE SCRIPTURE FULFILLED IN YOUR EARS Do you really want to be like Jesus? Jesus started a ministry recognizing a 7 year scope where the eternal destiny of his fellow church members would be decided. 27-A.D to 34 A.D. contains a modern day parallel for the church today. 27AD-------31AD----------34AD WE REPRESENT ISREAL WHEN CHRIST WALKED THE EARTH The trials of the children of Israel, and their ATTITUDE just before the FIRST COMING OF CHRIST, illustrate the position of the people of God in their experience before the SECOND COMING OF CHRIST- Review and Herald, 1890, No. 7 From this prophetic principle we can deduce that whatever was happening in Gods Church from 27AD to 34AD will be happening in Christ Church Just prior to him coming. The signs declare Christ soon coming. Thus, we can learn rich truth from a study of the activities that took place from 27.A.D to 34A.D. This is key for you to understand the remaining portion of our study. The bible is written in parallels format so that we can recognize Satan in all his disguises. If you recognize the parallel and take up the ministry of Christ, God will use you to help rescue his church. Today 34 A.D lines up with THE NATIONAL SUNDAY LAW (close of probation for Gods Chosen)
(For new subscribers unfamiliar refer to www.greatprophecy.com for a detailed study on the mark of the beast). The prophecy of Daniel 9 delineated what the Jews had to accomplish by 34 A.D. Here are the highlights from Daniel 9:24-27 SEVENTY WEEKS ARE DETERMINED UPON THY PEOPLE AND THY HOLY CITY. 1) To finish the transgression
2) To make and end of sins
3) To make reconciliation for iniquity
4) To bring in everlasting righteousness
5) To seal up the vision and prophecy
6) To anoint the most holy. What they had to do by 34AD we must do by the National Sunday Law. Here lies a problem. This message is not being preached. Dont worry Gods going to fix it. Jesus faced this same attitude with his own church even though they only had seven years left for their eternal destiny to be decided when his ministry began. Jesus is now in the most holy place. Our seventy weeks are about up. There are devout men today being led astray. If Satan can shut down Gods truth, millions will be unprepared. CHIEF WORK OF SALVATION NO LONGER LIMITED During the time of Christ God had chosen the Jews as his primary vehicle to teach salvation to the world. For Christ said, Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews (John 4:22). Today salvation is of Gods true people. According to Revelation 14:6 Gods people come from every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people. Do you know Gods chosen vehicle for spreading the gospel according to prophecy?

In order to discover what name belongs in the mystery blank you will have to familiarize yourself with the prophecy of Gods modern day Jews blank . have been chosen by God as a peculiar people, separate from the world. By the great cleaver of truth He has cut them out from the quarry of the world and brought them into connection with Himself. He has made them His representatives and has called them to be ambassadors for Him in the last work of salvation. The greatest wealth of truth ever entrusted to mortals, the most solemn and fearful warnings ever sent by God to man, have been committed to them to be given to the world; CALLING ALL GOOD MEN AND WOMEN I ask again, are you one of these people? God could very well be now calling you to be a member of his official rescue ministry for the last days. In our next issue we will examine how Jesus instituted a plan to save his church and how you can follow the same plan. Have a blessed week, Ryan Lance Jeffery
