Lisa's Logic (publisher's editorial)
Hi there!
A warm welcome to our newest readers and a rowdy howdy to our regulars.
It's so wonderful to see your bright and smiling face!
Good day to you! I hope you had a terrific week:) Mine was busy,
but pleasant.
Thursday morning, I voluntered at the grade schools Book Fair. Our
book fair is very popular and the attendence is always high. I helped
children find the books they were interested in. While I was there,
a group of pre-school students came in to visit. They were read 3
books by one of the other volunteers. It was wonderful to see these
4 year olds' love of books beginning to bloom, indeed. One of the
things I've tried to do for my children, is instill the love of reading
that I have. I hope it carries on through to their adult years.
I have some exciting news. I finally threw away my dial up
connection. Woo hoo! I now have broadband. The company
I'm using is actually cheaper than what I was paying for dial up
and my phone line - combined! They specialize in rural users
who do not have DSL or cable available to them (like me). If
you live in the state of Kansas, contact me and I'll send you
the information. And in case your wondering how fast it is...
My dial up speed was 46.2 kilobytes. And that is the highest
it ever was. My new broadband connection was tested and
it was 1500+ kilobytes. Now that's fast!
Anyhoo, I've updated the resources page. There are a ton of
resources there, both free and paid. Oh and plan on being there a
while. :) Our article for today is written by David Callan. David
discusses marketing with classified ads. Very interesting article.
We have a new contest question, with new prizes. Be sure to enter!
You can't win if you don't enter.
Oh and be sure to play the fun game that my Dad sent me. Its very
addictive. http://n.ethz.ch/student/mkos/pinguin.swf
My high score is 321 - what's yours?
I suppose I should wrap it up and get this out to you. I know you can't
wait to peruse this edition of The Left Handed Times Sassy

Your article
Marketing with classified ads
By David Callan
You have all read them, offline anyway, in papers,
magazines and journals among other places. Well online
classified ads work the same way. You write a headline,
description and post some contact details for potential
buyers to get in touch with you. Offline classifieds would
direct people to a phone number while online classified ads
would contain your URL and an email address.
Offline you'll have to pay for almost all classifieds you
post, however online there are thousands of free sites
which will allow you to post your ad and of course there
are plenty of low-cost sites which will also except your ad.
Apart from the fact you can get free classifieds online,
online ads have a few advantages compared to offline ones.
The Internet has a much much larger audience than your
local or national newspaper has so more people can
potentially see your ad and act upon it.
You can post your ads online and you could have feedback
and sales within a very short time as usually people just
have to click on your URL for more info rather than make a
phone call or send a letter.
Ads that are placed online are much cheaper than their
offline counterparts, this is because space is not tight on
the Internet as it is in a magazine or newspaper.
A user looking for a particular product can usually
perform a search for a particular word or phrase from the
classified ad site whereas offline people have to manually
scan through the different categories.
A disadvantage of online classified ads to the webmaster
is that it can be quite time consuming to do especially if
you want any sort of success with them, which you obviously
do. However many good pieces of software are becoming
available which can automatically submit your ad to lots of
these sites, they aren't cheap but if you're interested try
doing a search for 'classified ad software' or something
similar on Google.com or Yahoo.com.
Let's get on to the good part, how to make the most out of
posting to classified ads. Stay specific, always post to
the most appropriate category or categories there are, this
way you'll be posting to an area where people will actually
be interested in your product, this is vital.
Remember especially with free classified sites that a lot
of other webmasters will be trying to promote their
products and websites with ads too so you'll have to repost
your ad regularly to stay near the top of the bunch, nobody
will even see your ad if it's at the bottom of another 50
ads, will they?
Now on to the actual copy of your ad, since few classified
sites allow you to post graphics you'll have to rely on
your headline to grab the attention of the people scanning
the ads in front of them. You can do this by using words
like 'free', 'secrets', 'how-to' and other words which will
make them curious to find out more. If you can, include
your keywords in your headline as some classified sites
will use the headline as the link to your site this in turn
will help you when the search engines examine your link
popularity.
Always target your market, if you sell a product for
webmasters mention 'webmasters' in the headline and body,
next you should mention what your product will do for them
(i.e. the benefits of it. - how will it make their life
easier).
I have read this in numerous places and now you're going
to read it too, the idea with classified ads is to generate
interest and not to actually sell anything there and then,
that's far to hard to do, you want to get the reader
wanting more information and you should give this to them
through your website or autoresponder. This is why your ad
body should always be short, concise and to the point, a
big long page sales letter will scare people off.
Follow the above few tips and you should see some results,
before you go I want to put this to you. Which is better
paid or free classifieds? Well for me paid classifieds have
always produced much better results, I think this is
because advertising in "Free Classified Sites" has now
become an almost automated task which means not many people
actually visit and respond to classified ads. Submission
spiders are wonderful creatures but aren't often interested
in clicking on your well-crafted classified ad.
Two of the best places where you can place fee based ads
which do bring results are AOL.com and Yahoo.com. Good luck.

Product Review
Letterhead4Email
Letterhead for email is exactly what it sounds like.
Letterhead for your email.
The software is a simple program that actually embeds
itself into Outlook - 2000, 2002 2003, or Outlook Express.
So when you send an email, the recipient never receives
the dreaded red X in the graphics. And every email you
send is branded with your information - your business
URL and/or logo.
L4E offers a free, 14 day trial. You download the
software, install it and your free trial begins. Use it for
14 days and it you don't like it, you simply uninstall it.
Also offered is unlimited text letterheads that you
create yourself, online. Oh and they have business
forms as well, free of charge.
If you have an email you don't wish to have a letterhead
in, there is a feature in which you can select none and
your outgoing email won't have any letterhead in it.
Cost? $58.00
Affiliate program - Yes
2 Tiered with 1st level earning 20% and 2nd tier, 10%.
Plus 10% for custom graphic orders.
Lisa Note: I have used L4E for a couple of years now.
The professionalism it allows my emails to reflect is
outstanding. Personally and professionally, I feel that
every Netprenuer should have letterhead. After all,
bricks and mortar companies do and now, online
entrepreneurs can too.
