Yahoo answers:

Hi,
About 75% of websites that sell products and services have an affiliate program.

If you ever come across something you’d like to promote try doing this in search

site:domainname.com +affiliate
or
site:domainname.com +partner

some of the big affiliate sites are:
cj.com
linkshare.com
clickbank.com

but unless you have a good under standing on how to market the product, you may have a hard time making sales.

If your new to affiliate marketing there are many techniques you need to learn first.
Learn+Focus+Action= Success.

Poker Affiliate Programs?

I’m looking for any other poker affiliate programs that are set up like this one:

In brief, this one offers 50% rakeback along with 25%, 12 1/2%, 6 1/4%, 3 1/8%, 1 5/8%, etc on down of rake generated on each level. Not percentages based on income of sub affiliates. I know if there is one plan like this out there, there are bound to be others. Please supply a link. An affiliate link is fine but if you are directing me to your website that has all kinds of rooms listed please tell me which I should be looking at. Other non poker gambling sites affiliate programs that are similar would also be of interest. Thanks.

I have many different affiliate links in a few autoresponder lists emails that are being sent on a regular basis over a period of 6 months.

Thanks.

There is no way to tell. To many emails get sent to do that

Helen asks…

I want to start an affiliate site with merchants who don’t have a program… what software can I use?

I have a web idea that involves me listing products along a similar theme from a variety of merchants who I would find… however most of them probably won’t have an affiliate program. Is there software I can use to make it easy for them to join my site/pay me a percentage of revenues that I lead them to? I can find plenty of affiliate sites… but none that allow the affiliate to recruit the seller as I am planning on doing.

Yahoo answers:

Probably WordPress would work with one of their many plugins.

You can also check out these affiliate programs below.

Ken asks…

Can I be a part of more than 1 affiliate program on a site?

For example if I have a site can I put affiliate links from amazon, wal mart, gamestop, eb games, and best buy on one site, like list a product and allow customers to click one of the 5 links on that page depending on where they want to buy from. Is this possible? Is it allowed by all five of these sites that I listed above?

99% of affiliate programs generate for the new A, less than 1% of minimum wage

Jenny asks…

How do I identify real home business opportunity from a fraud? How to trust them with my money. List 10 best.?

I have cultivated keen interest on Home Business Opportunities and I always dream of setting up my own website and venture into the vast web of e-commerce.

With empty pockets and numerous bills at the end of every month I am left with no penny to spare. I joined an affiliate program and since then I my inbox is flooded with mails offering easy quick and fast money. The figures are too exaggerated and I wonder just how many people fall for it. I dont want to fall a victim of web scam, before I loose my hard earned cash.

You know many here people live on less than a dollar a day, so please I will appreciate very accurate and true opinion on which site to go to or do business with or even buy from in order to have a good home business opportunity and start running my life atleast achieve my life long dream of going for a holiday abroad. I like a site with less start up fees and easy to follow for a start. I dont have a website and it will cost a fortune to set up pls be honest

Yahoo answers:

Goto http://www.getyourebook.com for more information on home based business scams.

Yes you can set up a website for yourself, but realistically, you have to pay for the hosting and pay to promote it if you want to make any money from it.

Try http://www.getyourebook.com/sitesell for more info on how to set up a website even if you’re not technical.

Any genuine business involves some money down, but for an internet business it’s usually less than their offline counterparts.

Hope this helps

Lawn Chair Millionaire Home Business/MLM Program?

I have heard mixed reviews about the Lawn Chair Millionaire Money Making System. Investing in an online business/money-making system can be risky, anyone know anything about LawnChairMillionaire?

Thanks!

This put me off a bit: http://www.lawnchairmillionaire.com.au/
Sorry – I might have explained myself incorrectly.

I was looking at www.LawnChairMillionaire.com, which I though was dodgy.

www.LawnChairMillionaire.com.au seems to have been set up by someone in Australia telling people that the main website (.com) is a scam.

William asks…

Manager has suspended me for her mistakes; owner of business won’t return my phone calls…. HELP!!!?

I started a job at a chiropractic center in January, the 14th, to be exact. I “trained” for 2 days before I began closing on my own. I made a few mistakes, but quickly corrected them and continued learning the their way of doing things.

Within a week, my manager began asking me about appointments that were booked wrong- and basically telling me that I ruined her morning/or afternoon because clients were upset that their appointments were either at the wrong time or not on the schedule at all! I thought it sounded funny, because I’m very experienced with the software they work on- I’ve worked with it before at a previous job. I began keeping track of all the appointments I made and making sure everything was perfect.

This week I was accused of shorting the drawer 2 days in a row; come to find out she miscounted a roll of dimes as “40″ rather than 50 on 1 day (yes, a huge deal was made about it) The second day she missed several rolls of coins and I had to point it out to her that day as well! This past weekend 3 people were booked for 1 appointment; when I asked who they spoke with- they all replied with her name. She blames me even as I type this, saying I should have made sure that everything was in the system correctly.

She asked if she could put me on probation yesterday, and told me not to clock in and took my key. I told her “No, because the mistakes happening around here aren’t from me. ” I was told that “probation period” is admitting fault. Is it?

She told me that this is a “work at will” state, and that she owes no explanation for letting me go. She has several clients who have written horrible reviews about the business online and her name comes up in quite a few of them! 2 of the reviews should have proved to her that she messed up the booking or what-not. Even then, she tried to connect it back to me.

This business is a franchise; I was told to call “Franchise Corporate”… I have to find out about it.

What would you do???

HELP!

***I know I have options; I’d just like to know the opinions of you kind people out there.***
I have called the owner several times and left a voicemail. She said she was on her way today w/the checks only for her husband to show up. At this point I’m at home and not being paid.
Thanks for the answers so far…. not looking too good, but I do appreciate the response.

Yahoo answers:

I would say the owners have already picked their side and it is not you. Find another job and post your review of your job and company.*

Steven asks…

ADT experience and reviews please?

I just got an ADT system installed with a 2 year contract. I shopped around and did a lot of research on equipment and prices.., and found they used good equipment and had reasonable monitoring prices. I figured ADT was in business for so long they would be a good company. Plus I got an awesome deal. Unfortunately, I just started reading online reviews. Scary. A lot of people pretty angry at ADT and complaining of bad systems, failures in protection, horrible customer service and rip offs. I’m in Northern California.. is there anyone out there who has had a good experience with them?

Yahoo answers:

Any company that has the majority of the customers will have bad reviews and I find that only bad reviews show up on the internet because they want to vent.

Just make sure you use your alarm when your away and at home and once a month, test it with ADT. Give them a call and tell them what your doing. Then see how long it takes to get a response when you make the alarm go off. The commercials are done by actors and response times are too fast. So don’t rate their response time in milliseconds like the commercials. That fast is impossible.

ADT put In your system and if your unhappy after the contract, you can use anyone to resume the alarm system. I assume it works thru the phone line

Maria asks…

Nancy asks…

Basics of setting up online shopping site?

i know nuts about starting/owning a business, so really hope someone can give me pointers..

Im looking to start by selling female clothings and accessories, maybe with some men’s as well and actually i did think of selling all sort of knick nacks like say decorative ornaments etc..to increase variety.. does more variety = higher potential for sales? or it is better to start by sticking to a theme eg if its clothes then its clothes, dont sell watches or handphones

Just a simple home based one, low costs, cos im not sure how i would do.. so really expensive shopping cart or webhosting systems etc are completely out.. i am also targetting local customers first; i live in singapore

Trust. How can I enable customers to trust me if my site is new? ie i dont have good reviews from customers yet (this is if im not using ebay)

Im not aiming at anything big for now, I just need to know what is the most basic and important thing I need to know/have to start and run it.

thanks!

Yahoo answers:

Set up a pay pal account. Its the best way to do it low cost. They only take a commission after you make sale and get money. You don’t make anything, they don’t cost anything. Put the button link on your site. Make little thumbnails of your products and that link to an enlarged image. You can do this free on http://freewebs.com, but if you get alot of visitors, you may run out of bandwith for the month. Then you have to wait til it is reset to open your site again.

Internet Marketing Tools: Yahoo! Answers

Posted by on Sunday, 14 March, 2010

William asks…

is there any company that has been using internet as a major marketing tool?

Especially in hyderabad

Yahoo answers:

Google, Yahoo ect. Everybody and their overseas brothers.

Charles asks…

Who’s a good web host if I want to start an Internet Business?

I’m thinking of starting my own business and would like to use the internet as a marketing tool. The two primary things I would need from a host would be a) a good search engine keyword system (in other words people could type in “mowing”, “dallas”, “texas” in Google and find my business) and b) options to pay the business online using a credit/debit card. Who’s a good web host for this?

Yahoo answers:

Hello,

You’ll have to split the task at hand into two manageable chunks. The first one is to find a good Web host. The second is to either understand and learn search engine optimization (SEO) or hire an experienced SEO specialist that will do that for you.

A good Web host will help you with installing all the software that you need to get your business going including your Website, email addresses (to communicate with potential customers), a shopping cart and an online payment method. A good Web host will even go the extra mile and refer you to respectable SEO specialists that can configure your website so it’s “edible” by Google and therefore your Website will have a much better chance of showing up for those keywords. Be sure to sign up with a fully managed Webhost.

SEO specialists arrange your Website’s code in a way that Google and other search engines can easily index the content and make it available to your potential customers. But be careful not to fall for SEO businesses that pretend to know Google in and out and promise to land your business on the first page for the keywords: mowing dallas texas. That’s a sign you’re dealing with the wrong people / business.

By the way, my name is Joe and I help run two Web hosting businesses here in Houston. I put a link to THE best SEO reference online (prepared by Google itself!). Feel free to get in touch if you have any question or comment.

Best

Daniel asks…

Can anybody tell a tool which can be intgrated with website and will help me in internet marketing activities?

 

Yahoo answers:

Http://theinternetmarketingtool.blogspot.com/

Sharon asks…

In a website it says that Internet Keyword is a good marketing tool. Why is that?

 

Yahoo answers:

Keywords are easy to remember, easy to type, and easy to understand. That’s why for brand owners who want to be “found” online, use keywords in the SEO technology. Considering this, it would be great if brand owners could have a keyword-type Internet name! No www, no dots, no hierarchy in the naming system. Netpia offers Native Language Internet Name, it is the next generation Internet address that veers away from long, confusing names. All the users have to do is to type a keyword in any language at the address bar to get to a web destination. It’s pretty cool and you should check it out!

describe the benefits and opportunity to the business of using internet marketing within the marketing mix?

the question has to be a selected business as i chose, ASOS.com
i have an answer which i’m not sure is correct or even in the right context, i would appriacte if you let me know if it is okay, or let me know along the lines of what you would write to help me, thank you.
My work:

An effective ‘Marketing Mix’ including all 7 is a way of identifying a businesses achievements of marketing objectives, meeting customer needs, is balanced and consistant, creates a competitive advantage and matches corporate resources.
‘It is known as a “mix” because each ingredient affects the other and the mix must overall be suitable to the target customer’…(source: www.tutor2u.net)

The 7p’s include:

-Product
-Price
-Place
-Promotion
-People
-Process
-Physical Evidence

* Product: This is first considered in the marketing mix as it all depends on it. This can be a physical product or a service that the corporation is offering to the public. The only way to have a good marketing strategy is by making sure that the ‘product’ is up to standard, promoting every quality part of that good or service.

ASOS Products: ASOS promotes their products very effectively as they use clever visual tools such as 360 degree view of their product, video and picture to enhance the quality of the product itself. They also provide a range of products and service including clothes, accessories, shoes/sandals etc and its provided for men and women. They include their own brand and designer wear which shows that they have high quality in their product. ASOS have mentioned in their annual report that their 20 biggest brands are now represented by a ‘shop in shop’ providing a rich brand experience for their customers and a unique distribution platform for ASOS brand partners. ASOS also sells a range of products matching famous celebrity’s outfits that customers would want to buy. ASOS, online or in their magazine provides customers the latest fashion info and what not to wear giving them an advantage to promote their products. Their business attract over 5.2 million visitors per month and has over 24,000 lines for sale.

* Price: This is the total amount a customer pays for the product. It is decided through a number of factors a product have to offer including material costs, product identity, competition, market share and the customer’s percieved value of the product. If other store/business have the same product on stock other businesses may decrease or increase their price for customer satisfaction.

ASOS Price: Thier price for the products vary depending on the product – quality, brand etc. For the designer items it can be expensive, although ASOS may provide same looking product without the brand name making it affordable. With the price they offer ASOS is making a Profit over £10,009,000 (figure taken from ASOS annual report) as they have increased number of active shoppers over 1.2 million.

* Place: Place represents the location where a product can be purchased. It is often known as the distribution channel. The place can be situated as a physical store or as virtuals stores on the internet.

ASOS Place: ASOS.com is rapidly becoming the market leader in the UK online fashion world. All the products are sold ONLINE and not located anywhere else where people can purchase ASOS items. ASOS does have a warehouse where all stocks are kept and together has a office located in…

rest of my work in additional detail
Promotion: Is a way of communication that a business/organisation may use in the market place. It enables the marketer to a advertise the product or service being provided by them. Advertisement is a powerful tool that corporations uses to enhance their products/service to encourage buyers/customers. Promotion has four distinct elements made up of advertising, public relations, word of mouth and point of sale.

ASOS Promotion: As their business is purely based upon the internet everything is promoted through the World Wide Web on the website and off. They have promotion on other websites and also ASOS has developed an application to allow customers to track particular products on its sites through their web browser, whatever websites they are looking at. The online retailer has used functionality within the latest version of Microsoft’s Internet Explorer 8 (IE8) web brower, which Microsoft released on March 19. ASOS.com also mentions on the annual report that one of their aim is to ha
ve Uncompromising Presentation. ‘The ASOS website is our shop window and we will continue to develop it to ensure that our customers enjoy their time on the site and find it easy to find their way around it’ this being a vital promotion towards their website. ASOS organisation communicates information about their product and service to potential customers by identifying customer details and sends them information through mail, post etc aiming to sell the products.
Another advertising method ASOS uses on their website is that they have added a page of feedback from customers which enables ‘public relation’ which is one of the promotion powerful element.

People: It is appropriate to have people in the marketing of services as all people who directly or indirectly influence the perceied value of the product or service, inlcuding knowledge workers, employees, management of the business and also the consumers. People deliver services – they could be any mentioned. People promote and sell
products and services. For example promotion elements inlcuding ‘word of mouth’ ‘public relation’ is achieved through PEOPLE. Service quality is a key source of customer retention and brand differentiation. Hence skills, manner and appearance are important.

ASOS People: Are their employees, customers – their family and friends, and any other people associated with ASOS.com. Employees are important to this strategy of marketing mix as in can be those who deliever the products to customers. So they have to polite, helpful and have the knowledge of the business for them to answer any questions provided by the customer. It can also be the employees that answer the phone when any customer calls for any quiries. ASOS.com also have employees updating their website and replying to emails and online comments on their feedback page. ASOS employees has the knowledge, training and other aspect helping the business with marketing for their business. ASOS customers are also people that help in the
marketing of services as they spread the business information.

Process: This is the procedures of activities which lead to an exchange of value. The process should include how customers are handled from first and last point of contact.

ASOS Process: ASOS is determined to be number one in the online market. They have thought through their process and kept it clear and have made it customer satisfactory. ASOS’s strategy consists of aims that has a well-defined process.
ASOS have control of their website, their information/images etc are presented without any doubt intelligibly promotional. Payments are all done through their website online as they are only an online business. Also they have a step-by-step information on how to use and buy off their website, they also have page on delivery information.

The main benefit is the low cost of online advertising. A small newspaper ad might cost $100 and run for one day. For $100 you can buy a domain and pay to host it for a year. And you have complete editorial control over the site.

Affiliate Programs That Pay Yahoo! Answers

Posted by on Friday, 12 March, 2010

Donald asks…

I own a website with good traffic.. which are the affiliate programs that can pay to my PAYPAL account?

 

Yahoo answers:

I don’t know about paying to a paypal account, but I know of one that offers a free debit card and sends your commissions directly to you by loading the funds onto the card. They also pay the debit card fees for you. I’ve got one from them, and it’s great! I get my commissions fast, and the debit card works just as good as cash and is a whole, whole lot better than waiting for a check to come in the mail. I use the card at stores, ATM machines, and they even gave me an online control panel to transfer money from the card to my bank account.

As I said, I don’t know about paypal, though. But you can contact them at the link below.

Susan asks…

Is There a Affiliate program that pays 1 dollar per sign up and pays thought paypal within 24 hrs?

please let me know
they how to pay threw paypal within
24 hours tho
and it can be more than a dollar
per free sign up.

Yahoo answers:

This book is free to read and the affiliate program pays $10 per sign up immediately through paypal.

Just download the book and read it. There is no sign up or registration to read the book. I think this is what you are looking for.

Ken asks…

affiliate programmes that pay you via cheque?

 

Yahoo answers:

Clickbank pays with check

Michael asks…

Free Affiliate Marketing Programs?

What are the best affiliate marketing programs that pay very well but are free to join?
I see some programs say payment % CPO and some CPA whats the difference?

Yahoo answers:

It depends on what you want to sell, or what your website is about. Every affiliate program I have ever seen is free to join. The problem is their payout rules. Some won’t pay until you get a certain amount of sales, and if you don’t make enough sales in an allotted amount of time they won’t pay out. I’m thinking Commission Junction is one that does that.

One of the worst I’ve heard of is Amazon as far as poor payment. Their percentages are so poor it’s very difficult to make much money.

The best programs are those that pay for clickthroughs or for leads. You can make quite a bit of money with those, but they are harder to find. Also, clickbank is very good for digital products. Most products you sell through clickbank will pay 50 to 75 percent of the sale.

Paul asks…

Does anyone know of an affiliate program that pays for free sign up or free download?

I looked on cj and found nothing. I’m not talking about a free trial, but something like a toolbar download or something. Thanks in advance.

Yahoo answers:

Join www.myiphoneunlocker.com they pay you 25% and they actually pay because you get the money through click2sell

Joseph asks…

What website has a good affiliate program that pays well for each sign up or customer you bring them?

 

Yahoo answers:

Most of the internet marketing niche products and web hosting products do pay you well for each customer you bring them.

Rather than scoring for websites having good affiliate programs I would recommend joining affiliate networks like cj.com, linkshare.com and clickbank.com where you can find hundreds of affiliate products to sell.

This might give you better returns.

Nancy asks…

Does it pay to use affiliate programs on his own website?

I have a small website that I started 6 months ago, and which receive appr. 1200 visits and visitors a month (with a 10-20% monthly increase): wwww.dftraktor.de

I would be grateful if you could tell me whether you would or would not use an affiliate program for this website, before I spend (waste?) any money into investigating more deeply which affiliate program I should use, how to incorporate it into my website, etc.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Yahoo answers:

I just looked at your site and here are my observations:
- You should add a few meta keywords, otherwise your internal SEO is pretty good.
- You should get much more incoming links.

Not knowing German, I can’t see if you just sell locally or not. If you do then you probably wouldn’t gain much from an affiliate program.

But if you cover a good territory, then it might be worth consideration.

Here’s an article that can give you more details on creating an affiliate program: http://ezinearticles.com/?How-to-Make-an-Affiliate-Program-for-Your-Business&id=5682189

Charles asks…

Can Anyone suggest an excellent Affiliate Network that caters to Pay-per-lead program?

i am planning to venture into Internet marketing. since i don’t have time to create a product of my own, i would rathre do Affiliate marketing on pay per lead program. I just think that this is easier than pay per sale and more lucrative than pay per click.

What do you think? I am on the right track?

I am an overseas worker away from family so i am looking for additional income so i can go home for good and still have some source of income.

Yahoo answers:

I don’t want to dash your hopes, but none of these are going to create you the income you may hope and desire. The market is all ready over saturated with this and to even make a dent you would have to create some extremely powerful ad copy to make you stand out beyond everyone else.

So many people do this and just spend time clicking, submitting, etc. And never make much of anything despite what ads proclaim. What’s worse than this is those who sell subscriptions to help boost your income and make it easier. The only income being boosted is by the one who just took your money.

After having tried all this ‘easy stuff and free stuff’ over and over again. I gave up, rolled up my sleeves, found a good solid 5 pillars company and started marketing for them. Yes, starting a home based business requires a small investment, however, after you spend enough trying different things that don’t work and start adding up what you have spent, you could have started in the right direction the first time. Just my thoughts.

I wrote a blog on advice for working from home. There is a link in the 2nd paragraph of my profile here on answers. I invite you to read it and it’s all generic information. If I can help any further let me know.
~jennifer
If you think you can or think you can’t, either way, you are right!

Linda asks…

DOES ANY ONE KNOW ANY PAY PER LEAD BASED AFFILIATE SITES THAT PAY 5-11$ PER LEAD?

If any one knows any genuine/ legitimate pay per lead affiliate program sites that pay 5$-15$ per lead. Please reply to me with details.
IF NOT,ANY SITES THAT PAY LESS THAN 11$ PER LEAD?

Yahoo answers:

I am not sure whether you can get that sort of rate anywhere. This kind of rate range you can get on CPA (per sales) not per lead.

If you have quality traffic from US/Canada/UK you can try CJ.com, Linkshare.com,affiliatepartners.com.
If you are in India you try shoogloo network or DGM

Internet Marketing Business: Yahoo! Answers

Posted by on Wednesday, 10 March, 2010

Donald asks…

How to pay tax for the income generated through my internet marketing business?

I would like to know how to pay tax in india for the income generated through my internet marketing business?

I am an indian resident. Used to work in MNC.

I have been working on internet websites from the past 3 months.

Programs like affiliate marketing or paid to Click.

I am expecting an amount of 3 Crores in the next few weeks, From different sites. Which will reoccur every month.

I will transfer it partially through pay-pal and some through wire transfer.

I have updated my PAN card number in my savings bank account.

Now when the HUGE amount hits the bank will the Income Tax people trouble me?

How to pay tax on time to avoid them or penalty.

Please give me step by step instructions to pay online tax.

Cant i pay it by my own with out consulting a CA?

Yahoo answers:

Vishal, sorry to say. But, you better ask this question after receiving the money. Because, I have seen what these businesses are like. Again, ask when you actually received the amount to your PAYPAL account, and then you transferred to your local bank account from paypal.

As to the taxation, you don’t need to consult a CA. You can file returns yourself. These days, most public sector banks are providing online filing of tax returns. Usually, this income is taxed under the head “Income from Other Sources” – one of the five heads, under which total income is calculated.

For more information, contact me

Starting my own internet marketing business, any legal advice…?

Hello. I am in the works to starting my own online graphic arts and internet marketing business which I hope to launch in January. It is going to be small for now and something I want to do while pursuing my masters degree.

I wanted some advice on if I need to get it registered where I life? I will be in a different country because my husband is in the military and will hopefully have clients in both the USA and Germany. I bought books on it but they say to speak to a lawyer when it comes to the legal parts. I called some here in the area but most of them say they dont handle online business launches. I heard that if I process orders and have income I can put it on my own tax return!?Do I have to py taxes while I am having my business. What if I dont have a lot of orders?

I am wondering if anyone can give me a great resource guide on my issues for starting a small internet marketing business either on the web or a good book.

Thanks for the help.

Yahoo answers:

Mary asks…

Is a career change into being a librarian in middle age possible?

I am a 41 year old man who was recently laid off after 15 years doing mostly MS Access database work for a small marketing consulting firm. I have been seriously thinking about a career change. One change would be into teaching and I have had some bites especially since I have a math/science background and that is in demand. I have a BS in Computer Science and an MBA in Marketing. I also for 2 years after school in high school worked in a library in a role where I had a lot of autonomy.

The other idea I had is to work at a library/be a librarian. I have always been a “vessel of information” and part of my inspiration is that one of our clients at my past job was a consortium of colleges that offer information science degrees. It appears that many libraries have a need for someone who is very savvy in databases and the Internet and for people with my exact line of qualifications and experience.

Where I’m lost is how I “get my foot in the door” for this. For example:

- Do I need to get a Masters in Library Science or Information Science?

- Is this an impossible field to first crack into when over 40? (Albeit, barely “over 40″).

Please let me know, any advice is greatly appreciated.

Yahoo answers:

True, to be a reference librarian you will need an MLS just as the others have said, but a BS in Computer Science and MS in Business should easily give you credibility when applying for one of the many Digital Services Librarian positions. You’re not a shoe in, but you have a good chance of being interviewed if you’re willing to move to a large city or suburban county system.

Most librarian have chosen this field as a second career. While I was a library student the average student age was 33 so 41 isn’t that far off.

Maria asks…

Is it possible to run a home based business from india but the clients will be from usa ? ?

Is it possible to run a home based business from india but the clients will be from usa ? if yes what are the legal requirement i need to follow.

please note all my business activity will be done over the internet and i will be working from home.

Yahoo answers:

Yes. Many people are already doing this..

James asks…

Is it illegal to list 36 “fake” employees on your business website?

So my buddy and I (we’re both 21) have this internet startup and the company is literally 3 days old. We obviously have no employees yet except for the two of us. We’re running a marketing/consulting firm that serves a pretty big city in the US.

Would it be illegal for to list 36 employees with fake names under our Management Team and Employees section? When we’re directly in contact with clients it will just be the 2 of us – we will NOT impersonate anyone else during direct contact with clients, but we’re just putting the fake names on our website to give us a head start.

Is that illegal?

Yahoo answers:

That would be fraudulent and a very stupid thing to do.

But then, hiring a couple of 21 year old kids with no business experience as your marketing/consulting firm would be a very stupid thing to do, too. (If you had enough business experience to be worth anything as a marketing consultant, you wouldn’t be asking this question.)

Fell for one of those, “Be a marketing guru! Make tons of money! We’ll teach you how!” scams, did ya?

Robert asks…

How much should I charge?

I do under the table work consulting a small spa business. I do up ads, flyers, brochures, give her marketing advice, and advertise on the internet. I never know what to charge her, and usually end up getting $20 per job. Is this adequate? She tells me to set a price, but I just don’t know what to charge. I don’t really have any overhead costs, or travel time to get there because I work in the same building as her Spa, and usually end up doing stuff for her there.

Any thoughts?

Thanks.

Yahoo answers:

Reason: how long does it take you to construct per item? If only an hour; then you are making $20 per hour. If you are taking longer, then I would calculate the extra.

Per job is cheap; should be per hour.

Susan asks…

Resume advice — should I include two jobs which don’t relate to my expertise?

My experience looks like this:

2003-2009 finance / credit analysis for a commercial lender

2002-2003 Sales (low level interim position, one company, 14 months)

2001-2002 Interim clerical work (one company, 13 months)

1999-2000 General manager, internet company

1995-1999 Marketing director, international trade consulting

The issue is that when the dot com bubble burst, I had some personal (family) issues that forced me to move back to a small town with a limited job market and took two jobs which I did well at, but were off track from my career. Where my resume was business and management prior to 2001, if I use a chronological resume, I look like a guy that has a lack of focus, or an unclear skill set. If I use a functional format, there is a gap in my employment from 2000 to 2003 — and I don’t want an HR person to assume the worst.

Any advice? Thanks for your help!

Yahoo answers:

I would include the jobs, and if questioned explain it the way you did. I think HR will understand sometimes we have whatever job we can find. I believe a job outside of you focus is better than a gap in employment.

Mandy asks…

DO YOU THINK MY HIP-HOP GROUP WILL BE CRITiCALLY ACCLAIMED AND HAVE A LEGION OF FOLLOWERS ON THE INTERNET?

THE NAME OF OUR RAP GROUP IS: THE QUANTUM HARMONIC OSCILLATORS

WE ARE ALL FROM THE SUBURBS AND HAVE NEVER SEEN “THE HOOD”.

OUR INFLUENCES INCLUDE ANTICON, AESOP ROCK, SAGE FRANCIS, AND JUST ANYONE WHO REPRESENTS THE NERD RAP SUB-GENRE.

OUR BEATS ARE SLEEP-INDUCING, BUT ARE “ABSTRACT” WHICH MUST COUNT FOR SOMETHING.

ALL OF US RAP OFF-BEAT AND HAVE NO SENSE OF RHYTHM.

OUR SUBJECT MATTER INCLUDES QUANTUM PHYSICS, THE SOLAR SYSTEM, NAMELESS RAPPERS WHO WE PRETEND TO “BATTLE”, AND ALL THINGS “EMO”

WE OFTEN HAVE TO CONSULT A DICTIONARY WHEN WRITING OUR VERSES, SINCE WE WANT TO GIVE OUR LOSER FANS THE IMPRESSION THAT WE ACTUALLY POSSESS ABOVE-AVERAGE INTELLIGENCE — AND WHAT BETTER WAY TO DO THAT THAN THROWING IN A BUNCH OF EMPTY, MULTISYLLABIC WORDS.

OUR PUNCHLINES ARE CORNY AND PLAYED-OUT, BUT OUR LEGION OF FANS TO GO “OHHHHH SHHHHHIT” EVERY TIME WE USE THEM IN “EMCEE BATTLES”.

WE CLAIM TO BE “UNDERGROUND” WHENEVER WE CAN. IT’S OUR MARKETING STRATEGY!

Is This A Profitable Internet Marketing Idea: Yahoo! Answers

Posted by on Tuesday, 2 March, 2010

Carol asks…

Is this a profitable internet marketing idea?

I would like to become very rich (10 million plus) someday. Currently, I have a few years of experience working at a management consulting firm, building websites, and Internet marketing. I have an idea for a company.

I would start a company which buys small websites that are either under valued or need work. The company would then fix up the site by adding content, changing themes, marketing, etc. We would hold onto the site for a few months to build up value while at the same time, we would be making money from the site with the ads on the site. After a few months, the company would sell the site for profit.

Do you think I could be super rich (10 million plus) with this company. Since I don’t have to advertise the company itself (since we don’t sell products or have a service), our startup costs would only be to build up our portfolio of websites. By the way, would our company be considered a private equity firm? What type of company is a company that buys and sells other companies, or in our case, websites?

Do you think this company could be profitable? Should I do it?

Yahoo answers:

This business has already been created. It’s called website flipping. Yes, you can make money with this, but you will not make 10 million from this. Sorry.

Yahoo answers:

This kind of business can be very profitable, but you’d probably need a bit of cash to begin with in order to make the necessary changes to a failing business, in order to turn it around towards profits. It’s also been done before – I’m fairly sure there are already companies out there that specialize in this, and have done so for years.

I have started affiliate programme and I want to sell my products how can I sell and where I can find the customers. Someone told me that you have to get lots of email id of all kinds and send them your products. please help

Yahoo answers:

I’d hate to help someone set up to Spam me. You can use Yahoo or Google search to find services that will sell you a mailing list. The search term Email Lists got lots of these.
Your main problem will be that if you try to send out large amounts of mail Yahoo and most other services will cancel your account. You can send out legitimate advertisements to people who ask for them but you need to pay for the proper type of email account and you have to pay for the lists of addresses. Again, Yahoo and Google search engines can help you find the proper services to help you do this.

How do i arrange joint venture partnership?

I want to market my affiliate program ,how do i arrange for joint venture partnership with webmasters & list owners

Yahoo answers:

Contact the Small Business Administration and ask for an application to file for a joint venture. Then advertise for anyone will to join with you in a joint venture. Layout your plans and see if they are willing to go in with you. I suspect that you will need a lawyer eventually,so why not get one at the outset. You will be protected that way. If you try it yourself, you will have a fool for a client.

Best affiliate of dating/videochat sites for free signups?

Can anyone tell me what are the best sites in the field of adult/dating/videochat/webcam affiliate programs that pay per free signup? I mean you receive a link and anyone who registers under you will get you 1/2/3usd per signup.
Thanks.

Yahoo answers:

$1 or so is typical for adult dating sites, but most will convert you to a percentage payment plan if a set number of the free signups don’t purchase. For webcam sites you can earn a lot more for free signups. There are several I’m looking at, but don’t have the info handy at the moment. If you send me a reminder email I’ll send you the some links when I have a chance.

How To Use Skype Internet-Telephony As Marketing Tool?

 

Yahoo answers:

Nowadays it is comfortable to introduce your product with Skype IP-telephony definitely worldwide. With Skype IP-telephony it is comfortable to bring your business definitely to the global market. IP-Telephony is no longer the jealously protected secret of computer freaks it was before. Skype actually changed how we communicate. Traditional telecommunications companies like AT+T pressed the panic button and forced to launch their own IP-telephony service.

John asks…

How do I use the internet as a better multi level marketing tool to get prospects and distributors?

I am currently trying my hand at Pharmanex, a division of Nu Skin Enterprises. http://www.pharmanexusa.com

Yahoo answers:

Network Marketing starts with recruiting/lead generation. Generating leads is “made for the Net.” But that’s not the way matters have unfolded. Why? Because everyone in the industry has tried to force offline methods, online. There’s no need to push (i.e., chase cold calls/prospects) when you can motivate them to pull (i.e., they call you).

Look at the link below..

Helen asks…

Steven asks…

Discuss the effectiveness of the internet as a marketing tool -?

How would I go about this questions. If anyone knows any good websites or has other info… that would be great! thanks!!!

Yahoo answers:

Internet marketing can be really effective because:

1) You can measure almost everything
2) You can generate leads at a lower cost
3) You can find the prospects who actually want to buy what you are selling, and not waste your time on cold calling

Betty asks…

How significant is Internet Marketing or even blogging as an Information Management tool?

 

Yahoo answers:

I see them as equally important to information management. Internet marketing speaks in general to a variety of subjects and concerns while blogging speaks directly to a subject or concern.

Now while blogging can get you a direct answer to your information it would be in fact internet marketing bringing the people to the blogging site.

Internet Marketing Consulting: Yahoo! Answers

Posted by on Thursday, 11 February, 2010

Paul asks…

Local Marketing, non-etailer, ideas for expanding business?

I am starting a Hi Def tvs and accessories business. We have had a local photo store for years, now we’re getting into the HD market. Our niche: internet prices, savvy consulting, delivery, setup, installtion all at lowest prices.
We are already using craigslist. What about cost/benefit of: local radio ads?, promotions through other local retailers- and which kind?, mailings?, we do have a limited website currently, but we sell local only- so how to SEO for that?
We are also Ebay powersellers/drop-off site and use Constant Contact to email blast our existing local customers with deals.
Other ideas on product line and pricing would be helpful.

Thanks in advance.

Yahoo answers:

Hi Cliffrock
Websites can still be be very powerful tools for local businesses selling hard goods and/or consulting . . . BUT . . .it has to be done RIGHT.

Most local biz websites die deaths of quiet, no-traffic desperation. I have used a product called Site Build It to build a web site that WORKS… One that delivers 100 times the benefits of a Yellow Pages ad, at one tenth of the cost.

Don’t pay out a fortune on search engine optimization to so-called SEO experts – they try to “trick” or “outsmart” the engines by second guessing very sophisticated and constantly evolving search algorithms. The link below to Site Build It explains how building an honest website will grow your business and win the SEO traffic wars every time.

Good luck, Sarah

Lizzie asks…

Career in Music – What Should I Do?

So, I’m 19 *soon to be 20*, graduated high school almost 2 years ago, and, I’m still torn about what to do with myself. When I graduated I had no direction, absolutely no direction lol. I tried my hands at all kinds of things, but ended up quitting. Not out of depression or “oh I suck at this blah blah blah”, but just because I get bored. I’m the type of person that gets very bored and restless if I don’t have something to do……..except when I was working at my last job, and when I play my music.

My last job was awesome, pretty much was with an internet marketing/consulting/advertising companies. 2 of them at once in fact (working with my direct boss, and then helping him out with his biggest account as pretty much the “assist consultant” or “secondary consultant”). It wasn’t your typical white collar, desk-jockey, type job. That type of job, where I’m just pushin paper/pencil would kill me, I’m way to restless. But with this past job, I got to be creative, I got to use my ideas, I got to edit/make videos, websites, pictures, etc. And I got my training for free. BUT, unfortunately, due to the economy, the business has taken a hit. Boss said he can’t afford to pay me right now, and didn’t want to have me working for free lol, but that I’d most likely be able to come back in a couple months. So, more like laid-off than fired.

Now on to my music. I play flamenco guitar. I play everyday and I can honestly say that it’s the one and only thing that truly makes me happy. It’s my release. I would absolutely LOVE to make a career out of it, but it’s music, much easier said than done. And considering it’s also flamenco, considering most people probably think about the bird (flamingo) when they see the word, it’s not exactly all that main-stream.

Lately I’ve been very lost, very very lost. I’ve tried my hand at a few things, and quit all of them. College……..psh, yea right. I’m not lazy, not lazy at all, trust me, the responsibility of my last job was enormous. It’s just, college isn’t right for everybody, some people just aren’t meant to go, and I happen to be one of those people. What can I say? I tried, only lasted a year then I decided that I couldn’t keep doing it. And some more things here and there I don’t want to elaborate on, and make this any longer than it already is.

Anyway, on to my question (sorry for rambling), when it comes down to it, the only 2 things I haven’t quit are: my job, and flamenco.

The reason why I keep trying my hand at other things and not just sticking with music and the job that I have/had, is that it’s free-lance. Times are good, times are bad. Music is artistic, and the web-job is free-lance. Basically, it’s not something I’m guaranteed to always have (if that makes sense). And I’m a person that grew up with VERY little stability in my life, so the thought of living the rest of my life like that……just the thought of it stressed the hell outta me. But still, those are the only 2 things I haven’t quit.

So, finally, my question is: What just sticking with my gut and do music and the internet-marketing job (when I get it back, or even finding clients of my own), or should I keep searching for something else?

Just trying to get some other people’s (aside from family/friends) view, you know, people who don’t really know me, kind of an objective point of view.

Thanks and I appreciate your advice.
Sam
To CarolO – I’ve been paying my own bills lol. And I’m currently searching for a new job/clients and leads of my own (I don’t think I can count how many places I’ve applied to this week, from odd-jobs to grocery stores to professional companies, I just some form of temporary income) So it’s not like I’m sitting on my ass. I have been living with my father, but like I said, I help out with the bills and pull my own wait, I’m not a bum. And if you didn’t notice how I said in my question “aside from friends/family”, I’ve already asked them, they’re the first people I asked. I’m here for an outsider’s (objective) point of view/personal opinion.

Yahoo answers:

I think you should go to the person/people paying your bills while you flail around looking for that elusive bird of happiness. Ask them the question.

Work At Home Business: Yahoo! Answers

Posted by on Wednesday, 10 February, 2010

Thomas asks…

I’m good at typing and wondering how can I find a legal and legit work at home business?

I know there are alot of work at home business that are fraud. I was wondering if anyone out there is doing an at home business doing typing that really works. I’m looking to make some money while I’m home and my son is at school.. I would greatly appreciate any advice or ideas.

Yahoo answers:

Tami
The way I started my at home typing business was through word of mouth. You can go to Vista.com and get business cards (free cards – just pay for shipping). Every time I met someone new and was asked what I did, I said, “I have an office support business, providing general typing, reports, data entry, etc., basically anything that can be done in an office.” You have to feel comfortable “selling yourself” as a confident business woman who knows how to do virtually anything. [And be willing to learn very fast on your own how to meet your clients' needs]. Once you establish yourself as a ‘business’, join your local chamber and go to the events the chamber sponsors. Morning coffees, meetings; anything your time allows. Pass out those business cards at every opportunity. I didn’t rely on anyone else to provide work to me – I’ve yet to find a legit ‘stay-at-home’ business that didn’t want upfront money or wasn’t a pyramid scheme of some kind. My revenues went up every year, from 10,000 the first year to over $100,000, with my take-home after expenses between $65,000 and $70,000. The key thing to remember is, YOU are the business when you do ‘typing at home’. The quality you provide will determine your clients and your ability to retain them as clients.

You didn’t mention where your expertise lies (if you have specific experience in medical/law, etc.) If you want to work for someone else at home, check with medical transcription services. Call doctor’s offices and ask if they contract out their transcription. Call law offices (small ones especially) to see if they need back-up assistance. Enlist your friends – tell them what you’re planning and ask them to promote you. Good luck! There is good money to be made, but you do have to be willing to work for it. Also… Don’t forget to do your homework. KNOW what the ‘going rate’ is for typing services and determine if you can do the job just as well for what they charge or even more.

Charles asks…

somebody has a good experience doing work-at-home business that i can trust ? Thank for any feedback?

I just want to know if somebody is doing work at home business that is not a scam that I can trust and maybe registered with better business bereau. thank you for any feedback.

Ken asks…

Anybody know a legitimate work at home business in transcription for Canadian residents?

I am a Canadian resident (Quebec) looking for a reliable and consistent “work at home” job opportunity, preferably in transcription. I do not hold a certificate, but have a fast typing speed and excellent spelling skills. There is so much advertised on the net but I would like to hear from others about reliable companies to contact. I want a “work at home” opportunity on which I can rely on myself to make a set salary. I am not interested in a business which only generates income if I sell a product or get others to join.

Yahoo answers:

Okay, according to your detailed message you are looking for a job. But your question states your looking for a work at home business. So your going to get probably both types of opportunities since the question sounds more like you want a business opportunity. A lot of answerer’s do not read the detailed message.
First off, with a home job, you will receive minimum waged income. That’s what employers pay telecommuters (home based workers). Home based businesses, the opportunity is greater and you rely on yourself to make a set salary, you won’t get that in a home based job. There are home based businesses out there in which if you sale a product one time and it’s a billing cycle on a customer, the companies give you a percentage of their billings monthly. So you get paid over and over (residual) for work you did one time before. However in your detailed message the discrepancy is you stated your not looking for a business. So your going to be left with the bottom of the barrel type of income.
You say you can type fast. What is your WPM? Can you type 80 words per minute? 40 words per minute? What is your Internet speed? A lot of companies require you to have curtain Internet speed as well, in which they don’t pay for. That would be on you.
I’m going to refer you over to a really good article that I read awhile back on telecommuting (home based jobs) it will give you a lot of insight as well as a couple places that you can apply for (IF you meet their qualifications) Since I don’t really know what those are with you, this is the best I can do for now.
Good luck!
