How One Guy Turned a Small Idea Into a Huge Marketing Tool

by Paula Neal Mooney

In need of inspiration for marketing your website?

Read the story of how WheresGeorge.com began.

But be careful in implementing the same strategies...the jury is still out over whether this is truly a good thing or not.

Thanks a lot for your reply.

I did check out the website you mentioned in your comment at my blog. But it seems that the said code doesn't work any longer (maybe because its not for the new Blogger).

Anyways, I'm waiting for your real reply. Hope that you get the code; the one with which you made the Title changes in your blog.

Thanks!

About the Owner:

I am an old (85!) mail order man. Back in the day, I ran classified and display adsin publications such as Popular Science, Popular Mechanics, Opportunity Salesmanand Work Basket.

I designed a bookkeeping system for public bookkeeping and promoted it for aboutseven or eight years. One of the features of the system was how to advertise for bookkeeping clients.

Eventually, I took my own advice and mailed 1,000 cards to small Chicago businesses.This venture brought in 8 intial clients -- and I did no more direct advertising!

Some present-day entrepreneurs use a combination of internet and media adversiting. I've tried pay-per-click and decided there must be a better way.

I like newspaper and magazines that offer a combination of classified and online advertising.E-mail advertising is booming -- combined with SPAM, some groups you join will bring over 2,000 e-mails per day. There's no way you can read them all!
