This is an informative article Terri. And the video explains everything that SE is about in that special style. Syndication Express is great place to put the content we've created to work. Since it goes out through a number of venues. Content just like everything else in business shouldn't be motivated by money, but by how it can be bring value.
This is a marvelous article, thank you, Terri. The better we know our audience, the better that we can specifically identify their need or desire, relate to it, and satisfy it.
I prefer to keep things simple. Know your audience and give them what they want. If you find your audience likes something really well, find a way to use the best parts again. Don't treat your marketing strategy like it has to be created by a rocket scientist. Simple and fun works better.
Thank you for your comments Dennis Thorgesen
Life for me comes down to do what you love. That way the reality is you won't work a day of your life. I believe every marketing stategy needs to take this into consideration.
The ideal is to work smart not hard, and doing it right the first time. The reward is residual income and building your database of lifelong friends and customers too.
Know, like and trust helps you to develop those relationships, and that's the key to success in any business (online and offline).
