Manta tip

This is a very good tip:
Use Your Invoices for Marketing
If you send your customers an invoice in print or electronically, use the invoice to promote your product or service. This is also a valuable touch point to thank your customers and prompt them to learn about other things you offer. Some effective messaging for your next invoice might be; "Thank you for your business. Give us a call to learn more about our frequent shopper program."

Cyber Monday

Well today is the day, it is cyber Monday. Millions of us will go on line today and for the rest of the week and buy..buy...buy. We are now talking sales into the billions and growing. The key is people have changed and that thrill you use to get going shopping has been changed into a big time management hassle. So more and more of us just click and click and a few days later a package arrives at your door. Simple easy and yes a time savor. I write this because if you have a web site and want to sell items to the general public you should strongly consider e-commerce. You can sell just about anything on line and people might just buy it. So if you want to try e-commerce we can help you get started. Do not be fooled by those this is so easy a caveman can do it ads...it does take time and effort but once done it is a potential big money maker for you.

New blog post on Joe's blog. I wrote about what to put on your new web site:http://ping.fm/iQ8YB

What should you have on a web page?

I am often asked Joe what do I need on my web site and I look back and say, what do you do best in your business. I start with who are you, what is your history, what products and services do you offer. What makes you different from the rest of the pack. I also say have a good contact form and also add a blog, add a facebook fan page, add an e-mail capture form to start to build your own list of prospects.There is much more of course but this gets the grey matter turning and now you are on your way to knowing what you are going to put on a new web site.

I just read that firms are looking for digital sales people! ..m I think that is me;)

Two new blog entries on my blog. One is a tip of the day and another is about Google Adwords. http://ping.fm/98vjB

Google Adwords do they work

I recommend trying Google Adwords to get you highly placed in the search engines fast under select key words. You must watch it closely and change and adapt fast but if you do that then you can get some significant traffic to your web site.
I can guide you, manage it or just help you set it up for a fee and let you take it from there.
The more you use Google products like Adwords, Adsence, Blogger the better you are to Google!!

Manta tip of the day

Always Measure Your Marketing
It's essential that you have a clear understanding of what works and what doesn't. The easiest way to figure this out is to ask where prospects heard about you. Then you can evaluate the cost of that channel vs. number of prospects reached.

If you are needing a web site or want to upgrade your current web site, we offer a $100/mo plan that allows you to pay over time.

Do you have a need on your web site that could be zip code enabled? In other words type in the zip code and find the closest distributor.

Would you like your current web site to show up on a mobile device? We can help you.

A new blog posting about Flash and you might want to read it: http://ping.fm/s1HNv

If you have a flash web site read this

Recently we encountered some problems with our web sites that used some flash animation and the reason was Adobe had updated its Flash and made a booboo or at least a small one. We quickly shifted away from the program we used and used one that did not use Flash. I would say tens of thousands of web sites across the country experienced the exact same problems as we did.

Just a few days ago Adobe said it was giving up on its Flash for hand held phones. What is next you ask? I think Flash as a product will be dropped and not supported in the near future.

If you are using a Flash web site, please consider shifting over to an HTML CSS supported web site in the near future. Google has often said it does not spider Flash web sites easily thus the rankings may be downgraded. A professional HTML web site is easily supported by all the browsers and search engines so switch soon and when you do, give Rossini.com a chance to write your next web site.

Rossini.com announces the release of www.missbscafe.com if you are near Louisburg Kansas drop in!

Internet routing glitch kicks millions offline
:::Threat Rank: Medium

The seemingly indestructible Internet relies on a few backbone systems to keep traffic flowing smoothly. Sometimes, one of those systems blips -- and millions of devices get abruptly kicked offline.

That's what happened Monday morning, when a software glitch in the Internet's wonky sounding "Border Gateway Protocol" created a ripple effect that crashed data networks around the world.

The outage appears to have originated early Monday with Juniper Networks (JNPR), a company that makes router hardware for large networks. A set of updates to a core Internet routing protocol triggered a software glitch in some Juniper's routers. When those routers crashed, key Internet pathways went down with them.

Time Warner Cable (TWC, Fortune 500), one of the largest Internet providers in the United States, suffered a short but widespread blackout. "We appear to be recovering from a large but brief internet outage affecting most of our service areas," the company wrote on its customer-service Twitter account.

But Time Warner's problem most likely originated even further upstream: Level 3 (LVLT), a so-called "tier 1" network and one of the key Internet gateways in the U.S., got caught in the crash.

What to do: If you are still experience connection problems, contact your Internet Service Provider for more assistance.
