Hi Robert:
Well, I'v had a very busy week. My
daughter, Kassandra, who lives in
Washington D.C., came out west to
Las Vegas on a 4 day trip, and I
went from Laughlin to Vegas to
meet her.
Before I got there she spent most
of her time shopping.
I wonder if scientists will ever discover
the location of the shopping gene!?!
It must be on the X chromosome
somewhere! (lol)
This issue is coming out a day late on March
10th, because when I went to the Laughlin
library, all of their Internet access was out for
over 6 hours and the library closed before
I could complete the issue.
My computer is still back in Las Vegas.
Anyway, this issue features some
new free advertising programs that
look good.
Remember to always use a tracking
url when you advertise so you will
know for certain which of your ads
are effective.
Be sure to sign up for Eva Browne-Paterson's
newsletter, because she offers a ton
of valuable free resources and tools
to new subscribers.
This is the type of useful info that
members of your contacts list would
appreciate knowing so pass it on.
Enjoy all the goodies in this issue.

Five Stumbling Blocks
To Successful Networking
And How To
Overcome Them
By Lydia Ramsey
The ability to connect with people is
essential to success in any business.
Professional networking events present
opportunities to interact with others on a
personal level and to develop profitable
relationships.
These occasions are critical for anyone
who wants to grow a business or promote
a career.
Many people are simply not comfortable
walking into a room full of strangers and
striking up conversations. Here are five
common stumbling blocks that you may face
and tips to help you overcome them.
A RELUCTANCE
TO TALK TO STRANGERS
You were taught at an early age not to
speak to people you don't know. It's not
safe. In certain situations today this is
still good advice. In business, however,
talking to strangers is a way to generate
interest and support for your products and
services.
If you only talk to the people you already
know, you will miss out on opportunities to
make new connections and establish valuable
contacts.
To get past your discomfort in talking to
strangers, set a goal for yourself
before you attend any networking
event.
Decide how many new contacts you want to
make or how many strangers you want to meet.
In some cases, you may specifically target
individuals whom you'd like to know.
Next come up with some icebreakers or
conversation starters. Have questions prepared
that you can ask anyone you meet at the event.
You may want to inquire about other people's
business, their connection to the sponsoring
organization or their opinion of the venue.
LACK OF A FORMAL INTRODUCTION
It's much easier to make a new contact when
there is someone else to handle the
introduction and pave the way. If you wait
for another person to make the move you may
not meet anyone. At networking events, the
goal is to meet as many people as possible.
This is the time to take the bull by the
horns, walk up to people you don't know,
introduce yourself and start a conversation.
You can do this if you have prepared
your self-introduction in advance.
You will not introduce yourself the same
way on every occasion. Perhaps it is your
first time to attend an association meeting.
In that case, you might want to say that as
part of your introduction. Let people know
who you are, why you are there and give them
a reason to ask more abut you.
FEAR OF BEING SEEN AS PUSHY
You may think that you will turn people off
if you are assertive and that if they want
to talk to you, they will make the first move.
If this is your line of thinking you will
find yourself spending your time alone at
the reception or meeting function and leaving
without a single new connection. Being open,
friendly and interested does not turn people
off.
You will not come across as overly aggressive
if you seek out the "approachable" people.
These are the ones who are standing alone or
who are speaking in groups of three or more.
Two people talking to each other are not
approachable because they may be having a
private conversation and you would be
interrupting.
THINKING THAT OTHER PEOPLE
MAY NOT LIKE YOU
There is always the risk that the other person
is not interested in you and doesn't want to
meet or talk to you. It happens. If that is
the case, don't take it personally. Nothing
ventured is nothing gained. When you get a
cold shoulder, smile, move on and say to
yourself, "Next?"
HAVING YOUR INTENTIONS MISUNDERSTOOD
Approaching someone of the opposite sex to
begin a conversation may seem more like
flirting than networking. This is more of an
issue for women than men. Women have an
equal place in the work arena and need to make
professional connections the same as men do.
Women in business can no longer afford to hold
back when there is opportunity at hand.
Neither men nor women will have their motives
misinterpreted if they present themselves
professionally in their attire and if they
keep the conversation focused on
business issues or topics that are
not personal or private.
Whatever your stumbling blocks, face them
before the next networking event and devise
a personal plan for getting past them. Once
you do, you will find yourself connecting
with confidence and courtesy on every occasion
and the results will be reflected in your
bottom line.

Top Internet Marketers
At Video Conference

I am only familiar with two of the
the Internet marketers at this video
conference that costs a token $1 (US),
Tim Sales and Joe Vitale.
Tim Sales is co-author of the outstanding
video, Brilliant Compensation, which is,
by far, the best explanation of the true
value of Network Marketing ever offered.
This conference should be worth checking

Blog For List Builders
http://www.listprofitsecrets.com/blog
Craig Perrine, who specializes in opt-in
list building, has started a blog devoted
specifically to that subject.
Since having your own list is probably
the single most valuable asset you can
have as an Internet marketer it makes
sense to bookmark this site and see
what Craig has to say on a regular basis.

The Long-term Benefit
Of Offering Valuable Free
Products And Services
To Your Contact Lists
http://resultstracker.net/t.php?id=37342
Here is the #1 concept that drives
the Internet as far as individual success goes:
A high level of credibility has a
monetary value!
You can build your credibility by offering to your
contact lists on a regular basis information that
solves a problem or fulfills a need.
When that information is in the form of free
products or services, your email messages are
virtually certain to be opened and read by a
high percentage of your contacts.
Periodically, slip in a commercial
message, (monetize your
credibility).
If you have multiple lists, you will have some
kind of commercial messages going out on a
regular basis.
The archives of THE TAX TORPEDO Newsletter
are a great source for quality free programs,
products and services.
I am still working on completing an up-to-date
archives with all 2004 and 2005 issues.

I Heard It
Through The Grapevine
A man was brought to Mercy Hospital and taken
in for coronary surgery. The operation went
well, and, as the groggy man regained
consciousness, he was reassured by a Sister
of Mercy, who was waiting by his bed.
"Mr. Smith, you're going to be just fine," said
the nun, gently patting his hand. "We do need
to know, however, how you intend to pay for
your stay here. Are you covered by insurance?"
"No, I'm not," the man whispered hoarsely.
"Can you pay in cash?" persisted the nun.
"I'm afraid I cannot, Sister."
"Well, do you have any close relatives?" the nun
asked.
"Just my sister in New Mexico," he volunteered.
"But she's a humble spinster nun."
"Oh, I must correct you, Mr. Smith. Nuns are not
'spinsters'. They are married to God."
"Wonderful," said Smith. "In that case, please
send the bill to my brother-in-law."
