Tip! COST-SAVING STREET SMART MARKETING(CSSM)™ System Updates About SDAc's Activities/Tips You Can Use |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
Most people have useful products/services and ideas for sale BUT the major challenge for them, from my observation over the past seven (7) years, is HOW TO COST-EFFECTIVELY market themselves on a CONTINUING basis to win profitable, PAYING customer/client relationships. So many readily turn to using Radio, TV and Newspapers - which is good but can often be quite expensive, and therefore difficult to sustain. The CSSM can help ANY business cost-effectively market itself to MORE of the right audience in a way that enables it spend up to 50% less than it would spend on traditional media like Radio, TV and Newspapers. I can show you measurable proof to back up my claims - including results I have achieved for myself, as well as a client who has paid up to N70,000.00 (Seventy Thousand Naira) this month to have it implemented for his business. The key point: You need to measure, monitor and manage your Cost Of Customer Acquisition (COCA), as a means of marketing in a way that ensures you stay profitable over the long term. To do this well, my CSSM™ system is a crucial requirement. See the table of advantages in the PDF flyer attached to this email. You can also download the PDF flyer by clicking here. In case you need to download the FREE Acrobat Reader to be able to view the attached PDF, click the link below: Apart from the offline marketing benefits of the CSSM strategy, your online "search engine" visibility/ranking will be dramatically boosted when I implement it for you. This means MANY MORE people will be able to find you when they do net searches using keywords that relate to what you do or offer. To illustrate, I invite you to Google the keywords below that describe what I offer on my sites, and see how my websites turn up on the first results pages - sometimes in Nos 1 to 3 positions. ---------------- 1. Go to www.google.com on your browser. 2. Type "excel software, self development" into the search string entry field, then click "Search". Notice that our main website - www.spontaneousdevelopment.com comes 3rd in the FIRST results page returned by Google. The above explains why I have many people discovering/contacting me through the web. Unlike many businesses out here who have to give out their website addresses before people can visit them online. Wouldn't it be great if your company could get found in the same way? It would save you a WHOLE lot of hard-to-find money, you know! On the 19th of January, an old client engaged me to implement this system for his business. Between then and now, results like those mentioned above are already being recorded.

Quick Take Away: This month, I offer you a write-up (not by me) that I believe offers useful information and education - in a story-telling format - about how one can detect possible hearing difficulty in a child - which could be affecting his/her performance. The author is Simeon O. Afolabi, a clinical audiologist, who runs BSA Hearing & Speech Centre - with offices in Lagos and Abuja. Note that I have his permission to reproduce the newsletter article. Title: Investigate Your Child's Hearing Loss Early I once read a story in which a young schoolboy was repeatedly punished by teachers for failing to do well in class, despite being exposed to similar teaching situations as his better performing colleagues on a daily basis. The teachers never asked him if he had any problems learning. They simply assumed he was okay - and explained away his poor performance as due to laziness. Why did they do this? Simply because he looked just like any other normal boy in the school - healthy and active. What they did not know was that the boy often struggled in class to hear what was being said in class by the different teachers. Due to the fact that he had his seat at the back of the class, the problem was worse making it difficult to take good notes, and follow what was being taught. Luckily, a visit to the school by a hearing specialist (audiologist), in which all pupils were asked to take a hearing test revealed that the boy had great difficulty hearing properly. Based on this finding, a hearing aid was eventually recommended and fitted the boy. The impact on his performance in class showed immediately in subsequent weeks - including his participation. The school failed to know this boy had a problem for so long because none of those who had contact with him knew what signs to look for to detect the problem causing his poor performance. If only someone had thought to sit down with the boy and ask him what the problem was, he may have volunteered details of the problem he had hearing. But fear and uncertainty prevented him from speaking out. So, what's the point being made with the above? Well, the moral is that sometimes when a child (or even adult) is not doing as well as we BELIEVE s/he can, it may not be her deliberate fault. It could be that s/he is experiencing some constraint that s/he cannot manage alone - and therefore needs help with. Which is why we should take time - especially with children - to observe them closely, and often, and then ASK them questions that can help us uncover the reason for their poor performance. However, without an awareness of what the signs and symptoms that suggest a person has difficulty in hearing, those who relate with the child may not easily discover it, in enough time to help him/her. The impact on the child's learning over time could be devastating - and the problem could worsen and cause more damage than should occur. The following are pointers to the likelihood that a child is having hearing difficulty. If/when you notice one or more of them, it is advisable to arrange for the child to see a hearing specialist or audiologist. 1. S/he often complains of having ear aches. The above list is not exhaustive, but serves to set you off on the track to investigating what you suspect to be a hearing problem in a child (or even an adult). Simeon O.
