SCD

Thursday, August 30th, 2007

By Dr. Harold Elam Jr What Is SCD? (Systematic Concept Duplication) Systematic Concept Duplication is a created science for target marketing, it consist of a series of strategic processes and procedures, that all have their individual identities and already established proven functions, yet operating in sync as one concept. SCD means having a corporate strategy for ensuring that your company realizes their full potential. It is an overall strategy that begins by placing all consumers at the center of everything your company does. SCD also involves employing practical techniques and strategies that will improve all of your business processes. The end result is to make your existing Corporation- More profitableBe a more enjoyable place to workHave happy contented customers that come back again and again….with their friendsApplying SCD….to your industry Innovation and customer service is essential in this era of the expanding automotive and customer service industry. Automotive sales, technology and customer service must be consolidated. In good times or bad, your company, its employees, and affiliates must continue to refine their focus in this ever-changing customer friendly virtual environment. SCD for the automotive industry will help define clear goals and the plans to achieve them. The implementation of our Automotive Processes & Procedures will excite the market place with aggressive, bold, and always effective tools that have been tested, proven to be effective and are now ready to be put into place to make your company that much more successful. Automotive Business Development is defined as; “Taking What You Have And Making It Better” The Goal…….SCD 10 Steps To the End-Result Deliver Online CustomersHandling All facets Of Advertising & MarketingMaking Business Development ProfitableKeeping & Growing Your Customer BaseTurning Leads Into ProspectsControlling The Web-Driven EnvironmentStrategic DMS IntegrationAutomotive E-marketingPower Follow-Up ProgramsVirtual ProspectingSCD involves the human element, the mindset of the people, and the ability to show them a better way. We have taken successful processes and procedures from various industries, integrated them with the ABC’s of the Automotive Business, always getting the same end-result. The entire concept is designed to be implemented into the everyday procedures of those key employees who play an active role in the current and continual success of your company. The following departments are normally created to function as separate identities, SCD combines these departments to make a well-organized machine operating to achieve the same goal, the same End-Result. Business Development DepartmentThe Internet CenterThe Call CenterThe Tracking CenterThe Customer Relations CenterMarketing & AdvertisingThe System………. Simplicity quickly defines the system that will be created around your goals and expectations, your company’s end-result. The key principals of SCD as applied to your company will include a group of automotive, guest relations and sales elements forming a complex whole. Training, Technology and Merchandising begin the applied concept, there is no one rule or starting point for SCD, it is very conformable to almost any already applied process. Change is never the goal, because with change, you always get resistance, and that will cause a waste of valuable time. A detailed, yet quick assessment and interview of key employees, their departments, their functions and their goals are made. We take what you already have and make it better, by creating better people through their own already established processes and procedures. SCD must become the key to the driving growth of your company. Only when every point of sales, service and customer contact is finely tuned, can you build loyalty, the key to growing your company. SCD’s Automotive Business Development transforms the culture of your dealerships into a smooth machine geared to capture, control and manage customers and grow your bottom line. Though we have the knowledge to generate, build and manage, our industry lacks the ability to manage processes and procedures, we start but truly never follow through. The virtual world continues to grow in and around the automotiveindustry, Automotive Business Development (ABD) helps control the growth and capture those customers who are searching the web for service, finance, and/or sales and have chosen your dealerships. Today’s consumers spend more time researching information on the internet about their next purchase. The Concept………. Application is the key ingredient to the concept of SCD, once there has been a detailed introduction, overview and assessment, the concept is applied to the dealer’s already established routine through Key employees. The concept is defined as, evaluate, update, eliminate, and replace effective methods from other industries into the daily routine of your key employees, and allowing them to benefit from the results. There must be a quick and effective integration into your already established departments that include the internet, Business Development, and guest relations, turning your dealerships into an internet savvy environment, without changing the culture. True success through Automotive Business Development involves, first the leader’s goals and expectations for their dealerships, their employees, and their individual departments. ABD allows for the leader to duplicate their efforts directly into their key employees, the environment, the mind-set and expectations of all guests. Our industry already knows what to do, but without application through the human element, everything that we have utilized in the past becomes worthless. SCD allows for value to be created within your environment, replacing the thinking, the verbiage, and attitudes of key employees, with innovative thinking. Always allowing your dealership the ability to adjust any situation to your advantage. Creating a recession proof business, that will profit in good times and bad, regardless of the season. The End-Result will become, A Residual Flow Of Quality Traffic. SCD maintains a balance between the thinking of your employees and the expectations of your guest. Unfortunately, people have attitudes, but through SCD applied concepts, your people will take on a new attitude and method for handling almost any situation. They become constant thinkers, taught to utilize their Reticular Activating System, in turn creating in your dealerships a network of Ah Ha’s…that will establish the How To…as they go along. The Reticular Activating System is the attention center in the brain. It is the key to “turning on your brain,” and seems to be the center of motivation.

23 Things to Know Before Attending or Having a Display at Another Tradeshow

Wednesday, August 29th, 2007

By Katrina Sawa Here are some simple tradeshow do’s and don’ts that you may or may not know, but you might want to review them every time to decide to attend or become a vendor at one. I’ve compiled these from years of doing different tradeshows, biz expos, kid’s expos, health fairs, community festivals and more while working at various jobs and with my own marketing business as well. Learn how to work the room OR be the vendor everyone wants to stop at with my 23 tradeshow techniques! Here are the 14 Things Every Vendor Should Know: 1. Bring your friendliest employees or friends to work the booth with you, at least one other person so you’re not managing it by yourself. You want high-energy, happy people in your booth that know about your business but most of all ones that know how to talk to people. 2. Try not to stand or sit behind your booth, sometimes it’s more appropriate to put your table behind you while you stand out in the aisle pulling people into your booth with a great hook or catch phrase. In fact you can put the chairs they give you away you shouldn’t really ever sit down in your booth. Those who sit at their booth are not as inviting or seem less interested in getting people to stop. 3. Do not talk on your phone or to other workers in your booth; always have your attention focused on the attendees passing by. If you look busy, people won’t stop. 4. Practice your hook, a quick attention getting phrase to get people interested and to stop. You might say something like Want to know how to lose 10 pounds in 10 days?, Find out how to save $100 on your next _____, Having trouble figuring out how much to save for retirement? or something like these. 5. Do not try to spend too much time trying to ’sell’ anyone that day or you’ll be spending WAY too much time with that one person. You’ll want to meet and collect info on as many people as possible; you can always follow up with them later. Try to make a note or check mark those bus cards of those who might be hot prospects so you’ll remember later. Having a booth at a tradeshow is like an instant database boosting venue; you want to be focused on getting the name, address, phone and emails of everyone you possibly can at all times. 6. Bring a clever giveaway of some type of promotion item, pens tend to be overused. Think of something people will not only keep or use but that will also have some type of correlation with your type of business. I’ve seen letter openers, flashlights, plastic water bottles, computer dusting brushes, mousepads, coffee cups, sticky notes and I use little books to put business cards in with my logo and website on it so they always have it on hand. 7. Hold a drawing for a free gift - not a discount off your services, but something anyone would want. Not everyone will want your services. Have a big bowl or basket for people to drop their cards into AND have a drawing slip in case they don’t have cards and make sure to collect all info including email addresses - this obviously builds your database which should be the MAIN REASON you are there. 8. Offer incentives if they sign up now with you or purchase today, a discount or throw in a gift certificate just for taking the time for a consultation (Ex: Give them $10 to Starbucks or something when they show up for the appointment?). 9. Make your booth interactive, think up some way for the attendees to get involved in your booth so they take the time to stop. I’ve seen real popcorn machines that give off a great smell, big spin wheels with corresponding prizes, puzzles to figure out right on the spot, questionnaire to fill out (bonus, it gets you more info too), video playing on a television, chair massage person giving free massages in your booth, card game or magic trick. 10. Have a large (3′x8′ average size for booths) full color banner for trade shows with your business name or logo, tagline or catchy phrase/headline on top, phone & website in big bold letters too. You want as much signage as will fit in or around your booth that people can spot across the room. Don’t get fancy with lettering; remember the goal should be to get people to stop at your booth and for you to capture their info. 11. Make your booth stand out with balloons, music or larger signs if possible. Many tradeshows that are inside allow you to hang signs or such from the ceiling and often times you can get electrical to your booth so you can have fun, energetic music - everyone loves music. Just make sure the music isn’t too loud so you can’t hear people or they can’t hear you when they stop by. 12. Bring goodies, candies or some kind of original food if possible, not just the normal Hershey’s Kisses or hard candy; the more original you get with this, the more people want to find your booth (I’ve seen someone with a popcorn machine at their booth for example with cute red and white stripped popcorn bags). If you can get something with your logo on it or name too, that’s a plus but it’s not necessary unless it’s your only giveaway because people will just eat the food/candy and throw away the wrapper. I used to give away individually wrapped fortune cookies and stuck a label with my info on the outside but you can get fortune cookies for example with your unique phrase, name, logo or even a discount offer on the inside fortune part! 13. Bring a small ice chest with bottled waters, sodas and quick, easy snacks in case you can’t get a break, however step out and eat quickly and don’t leave your food and drinks on your tables in plain sight. This is why you want at least one other person with you so you can break each other. 14. Don’t let your leads get cold! Immediately contact leads and thank them for dropping by your booth. You’ll want to set aside the whole next day after a good size show to do your follow up - enter names into a spreadsheet, mail merge them to labels if you want or handwrite them on a quick note with your business card in it or preprinted card or letter written specifically to them as a thank you for stopping by your booth, etc. You could also have preprinted follow up postcards ready to go. If your leads get cold, one of your competitors will beat you to them and if you don’t do your follow up YOU’VE WASTED YOUR TIME AND YOUR MONEY at the show! Here are the 9 Tips Tradeshow Attendees Should Follow: 1. Have a goal in mind - How many people you want to meet? How many cards you want to pass out or collect? Do you want to make at least 2 good contacts? Are you targeting the vendors or other attendees? Know who you’re targeting so you don’t go off track and you make the most of your time while you’re there; some of these can take some time to get through and you want to be efficient. 2. First of all, please, for goodness sakes bring enough business cards (3 times as many as you think you will need). You can even have more in your car. 3. Allow enough time to walk the whole show without being rushed. For a larger business expo you’d want to allow at least 4 hours. For a small community event you can usually allow about 1.5 - 2 hours. 4. Rather than carrying around heavy brochures, collect the cards of serious prospects and follow up with them later; you can always mail anyone there some follow up information about you or your company. They won’t have time to talk to you too much anyway since they are there to make contacts for their own business, so don’t be pushy with your stuff. Remember, they paid to be there, you didn’t. 5. Wear a nametag and possibly a shirt with your logo on it as well so people recognize you and see your logo and make that connection - this is branding for small businesses. Plus it allows those who might need your product or service to see what you do easily when you’re walking around. 6. Wear comfortable clothes with pockets and/or carry a large bag to put all the info in that you pick up. Pick up everyone’s business cards that you talk to so you can follow up with them afterwards. Even if they’re not a hot target prospect, they might make a good referral source for you if you built a good rapport with them. In fact, you might pick up all the vendors’ cards as well as any attendees you meet - the more the merrier for your database! 7. Don’t try to sell your product or service to someone who has a booth. This just says that you were too cheap to pay for a booth yourself so you thought you’d go and try to sell everyone while you were there. If the vendors are good prospects, then get their cards and contact info and say hello, but then go back and call or write to them later to introduce your business to them - if they’re prospects today, they’ll be prospects tomorrow. 8. Enter all drawings given at all booths - for the simple reason to see how they follow up. Many of them won’t follow up with you, which means they are wasting their tradeshow dollars but that’s ok, notice which ones DO follow up with you and how they do it. Those companies will be more likely to do business with you simply because ‘they get it’. Plus you might discover some cool ideas for your own follow up strategies. 9. Be outgoing and have lots of fun! If you look like you’re having fun, more people will want to meet you and talk to you - hence, you build a bigger database! Do you realize how many contacts you can make at the appropriate type of expo or show for your business and target market - TONS! Most of you probably know all of this, but are you doing it? Are you having booths at trade shows for your industry? There are so many out there that you may not even be aware of. To find tradeshows in your area the best places to look are the local venues’ websites who hold such events regularly - the community centers, convention centers, concert halls, etc. Have fun! **** Scroll Below for a SPECIAL BONUS! **** *************************BONUS!*************************** List of Items Any Vendor Should Bring to a Trade Show: bus cards, brochures sales or special offer flyers plastic (or other) holders for bus cards, brochures, flyers, etc. promo items and basket to display them in fish bowl to collect cards in signup sheet for email drawing slips for those without bus cards to enter drawing drawing prize sign and holder to show FREE DRAWING risers for table display extra tablecloths, colored napkins and or tooling to match theme banner or large sign balloons, matching colors to theme Office supplies: regular pens & large fat pens, extra paper for handwritten signs, regular tape and packing/duck tape, tablecloth clips/holders, paperclips, safety pins, velcro stickers, metal banner hooks, clipboard (s), dice for game, rubber bands, name badge holders or nametags basket of candy or some edible goodie either with bus card attached or not flowers, candy and/or decor for table portfolio to show brag book to show bio sheets list of services and fees new client packets rope or hooks for signage and banners ice chest with waters, snacks (for the vendor!)

Glass Beads

Monday, August 27th, 2007

By Jason Gluckman Glass beads present an artistic spectrum of beauty with value. They come in vibrant colors, shape and finishes, and add a magical touch to the product. There are different types of glass beads like Czech glass beads, handmade dichroic glass, Millefiori, lamp work beads and even bumpy glass beads. They are available in different colors and sizes which artisans pick up to complete their canvas. These beads are sometimes given different types of fancy finishes like Aurora Borealis or druk glass. Where druk glass beads are perfectly rounded and optically polished, multi-colored lamp work bead strands are in shapes ranging from fishes to twisted ovals. Luminous dichroic glass is another bead type which comes in a multitude of shapes. Then there are crackle glass beads. Czech glass beads with a pearl finish are great values because of the high quality and tremendous variety in colors, sizes and shapes. Since glass becomes molten when heated to a certain temperature, glass artists can create any shape as well as layers, while holding the glass over a flame. A bead with raised decorations, bumps, dots, sparkly feathering, with foil inside or other applied decoration, is most likely a lamp-work bead. Many glass artists produce unbelievably complicated beautiful collectors’ items in glass. The rainbow of colors and textures of beads available today gives infinite design ideas. The number of beads per strand and strands per hank depends on the size and weight of the beads. There are glass pearls, art glass beads and cane glass beads. You can find glass pearls in all shapes. Glass beads are expensive compared to other beads but enhance the beauty of the product. They can also be added with embroidery pattern or used with sequins as well. A transparent glass bead has the tendency to reflect the base color and can be beautifully used with any color. Beads provides detailed information on Beads, Wholesale Beads, Glass Beads, Gemstone Beads and more. Beads is affiliated with Wholesale Bath Salts.

Bad Credit Personal Loan: The Silver Lining in the Dark Clouds

Friday, August 24th, 2007

By [http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Pranav_Pratyush_Das]Pranav Pratyush Das Life is a road of ups and downs. Today things may look bright for you and tomorrow may be filled with darkness all around. You never know what will happen in the future. You cant predict anything about your life. You may be leading a good life today with enough earnings to make your life go easy. But, tomorrow you may suddenly fall in the need of money and you may be forced to borrow money to fulfill your urgent need. The best option to raise money for an unwarranted situation is to avail a personal loan. But, what if your credit history is already tainted? Well, there is a solution to every problem. Go for a bad credit personal loan. Bad Credit Personal Loans are those loans that are specially designed to cater to the needs of people having poor credit records. Your credit record gets adversely affected if you have faced the problems of CCJs (County Court Judgements), defaults, arrears, missed payments, bankruptcy etc. in the past. Therefore, the lenders hesitate much in providing loans to bad credit borrowers. But, these days bad credit has become a common phenomenon and there are a plenty of bad credit loans available in the market. Essentially, there can be two types of [http://www.easy-loans-shop.co.uk/bad-credit-personal-loan.html ]Bad Credit Personal Loans a secured bad credit personal loan and an unsecured bad credit personal loan. The basic difference between the two is that a secured loan is provided against any property of the borrower as collateral whereas unsecured loans dont need the guarantee of collateral. The interest rates charged on secured loans are low and the repayment term is flexible. On the other hand unsecured loans carry high interest rates and the repayment terms are also stricter. Since bad credit secured personal loans are easily approved by lenders due to the assurance of collateral, its advisable to go for them. Youll have added advantage of low interest rates and longer repayment duration. This will also enable you to pay small monthly installments. But if you dont have any property to offer as collateral then you can go for unsecured loans also. By bargaining hard with the lenders you can get a good deal on competitive rates. You can also improve your credit history by making regular repayments to the lender.

SAT Test Preperation; Prep Options

Wednesday, August 22nd, 2007

By Richard Amburn Its time to take the SATs. How should you prepare? The only sure thing is that you need to prep. Its been proven those students who prep for the SATs do better then the students who dont. There are many options. Use a test prep review company, there are many. Hire a private tutor. Or you can just buy a book. Going the book route will save you a considerable amount of money. There are plenty of books regarding SAT review. The best way to determine what books are the most useful are the ones that rely on college students, high school advisors, online discussion groups and students who have written the SAT. Of all the options, this one of course is the cheapest. But remember; only you know your study habits. Are you effective studying from a book? Do you need the reinforcement that comes from a class room type setting? Your other option would be to use a test prep service. This is a little pricy compared to buying just the book. With a test prep service you get a class room learning environment, which is usually small in numbers. There are many to choose from. Some are large chains; others are smaller local classes that pop up here and there. When deciding which type to use, the larger or smaller service, the advice is the same. Ask around. Ask around from students who have taken the course from these services. Any forum out there will have the same comments about the exact same service. This was greatest. This was terrible. I used them and I aced the SAT test. I used them and I didnt increase my score at all. How can the same service have different reviews? Remember, there is a turn over rate for the larger services and they need teachers to keep in business. Find an instructor that has a good reputation. The best and of course the most expensive is the private tutor. Private tutors offer the one on one that is very effective. But the same advice applies to the prep services. Ask around. Find someone who has used a tutor and ask for references. Even if you get a reference, you should always interview the tutor. Not everybody relates to everyone. Any good tutor doesnt want to be in a bad or uncomfortable situation. Ask them to meet you. All these options have merits. Make your decision based on whats right for you. Some options are cheaper then others but taking the test multiple times is also expensive.

Go Online to Find a Good Used Car Loan

Monday, August 20th, 2007

By [http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Carrie_Reeder]Carrie Reeder Online car loan applications arent just for new cars. There are plenty of lending institutions that will also finance the purchase of a used vehicle. For a person with good credit, the biggest problem will be narrowing down the options in order to choose the best lender. However, there are options for those with poor credit as well. Check with Your Own Bank First It is a good idea to check with your own bank to see what sort of used car loan rates they offer, but the next step should be to go online to see if there are better rates available. The internet is a handy tool when it comes to comparing the interest rates of different lending institutions because there are plenty of websites devoted exclusively to tracking rates and comparing loan trends. If you find that your banks rates are comparable to or better than other lenders, your work is done, and you can go to the banks website to fill out a used car loan application. If, however, it appears your bank offers rates which are much higher than other lenders, its time to start shopping around. Compare Rates Online In one sitting a person can go online, find the best rate for a used car loan, fill out the application, and get approved or declined. Be aware, however, that not all lenders are created equal, and any loan offers which just dont seem right should be avoided. Also, dont be lured into applying for a car loan by outlandish promises of rock-bottom interest rates. Usually the very best auto loan rates are reserved for people with flawless credit who are purchasing new cars. Used car loan rates can also be low, but they are generally higher than those of new car purchases. Getting financing for a used car can be quite simple when using the internet. Shop around, compare loan terms, and apply only after you receive the best loan you can get.

Stuttering And How It Affects A Persons Daily Life

Monday, August 20th, 2007

By Steve Hill For people who are fluent, it is hard to comprehend what it must be like to have a stutter. This article describes some of the tasks that can prove difficult and stressful for the person who has a stutter, tasks which fluent people simply take for granted. My name is Stephen Hill and I am somebody who has managed to overcome a stutter which had affected my life for eighteen years.When I was at school, I would dread the time when I would have to read out aloud in class out of a book. I would count down to which paragraph I would have to read and then I would look through to see which words I was going to have to say. I was hoping that there would not be many words beginning with b,d,v, or g, as I found these words especially hard to say. When speaking in a conversation I would always try to avoid these words or would think of an alternative word to say. When reading though, you have to read what is written. I had many unpleasant days attempting to read and I am now very happy those days are over. Trying to meet girls and to get a girlfriend proved very difficult and not because I am ugly. My negative brain would always be talking to me stating that a particular girl that I was interested in would not want to go out with someone who has a stutter. If I did manage to date a girl, I would then have the horror of meeting her family and friends. Socialising when you have a stutter is not easy. Other areas of life which proved difficult for me were: Ordering food or drink at a bar Trying to obtain employment Speaking on the telephone Answering peoples questions Introducing people Introducing myself to a group of people, for example at the start of a course at work As you can tell, it is quite difficult having a stutter at times. Stephen Hill has a number of websites including: http://www.stammering-stuttering.co.uk http://www.stutter-cure.com http://www.aromatherapy-blend-essential-oil.co.uk Article Source: http://EzineArticles.com/?expert=Steve_Hill http://EzineArticles.com/?Stuttering-And-How-It-Affects-A-Persons-Daily-Life&id=90768 instant where approval had bad has credit get personal and loan you payday any loan this borrow because money much now many simple also cash are advance the service then no to teletrack very payday where loan himself and he fax you payday more loan said online on fast because cash into

That Extra Mile

Saturday, August 18th, 2007

By Vishii Rita Krocha It’s funny. People keep coming and going. Sometimes without leaving a trace. Somehow you don’t want to look for them once they are gone. You come across strangers. And at one instance of meeting them, you already feel something connected with those people. And fate lets you meet again and again. Or maybe you create chances for yourselves because sometimes it takes only a moment of real observation to discover if they are for keeps. We go about befriending people all our lives. At least it seems so. There’s no reason why one wouldn’t. Life wouldn’t be merely complete without having companions to share some of the nicest things in life with. Even to encourage each other when you stumble and fall sometimes. There’s just too many things friends do together that it feels odd to imagine a life without them. Yet, somehow, it’s so apt to write about them because friendship is life’s sweetest gift. Lifelong you would need them. They are like an anchor that always makes sure you are safe. Some of us have come a long way sticking around with the same friends, but never getting tired of being together. Even if it meant you see each other everyday. There are those who have crossed our way and from the middle of nowhere, you find a relation to build upon. Those people may not be the ones whom we have known since childhood. But along the way, the ones you pick and you softly tell yourself that no matter what, you won’t just leave them.Whichever way our friends came about to be in our lives, the journey is all about sharing good times and ugly moments together, celebrating moments and crossing many roads that are not always safe but in the end managing to come out of it. Amazingly, you share a mutual bond and it grows stronger and stronger like it would never break. You hold on to them because without asking, they are there for you. Without asking, they make your life more bearable. Without asking, they take every given opportunity to tell you that you are special to them. Even give you nice surprises and make your day. Without asking, they will always walk beside you. Marking friendship day is just another sign that the world over need friends to get through life and that they are just not some people who get us out from many troubles but that we share life together. Whether reminded or not, we all value our friends. It’s indeed an occassion to celebrate. Indeed a day we should take time out to tell our dear friends that without them, we would probably not be anywhere at all. And yes, tell them, you’ll always love them for being the way they are. And for making your life a happier and an easier ride. Just assure them one more time that no matter what, you’ll always walk the extra mile together. In my twenties ~ that wavy age where times seem hardest, yet very adventurous too. You are not too young niether old. Deciding phases, getting serious kind of phase where Life brings you a lot of tides to ride. But i love every moment of it. I love the lovely times i can count on, even the ugliest of situations. They make me a better person. With dreams in my pocket, seeing them taking buds am gonna do all i can let them take their flight. Someday i hope to see them flowered and be happy enough that for once i did something worth celebrating. And that’s gonna be Life. M celebrating every moment of it.

How A Nerd From Singapore Transform To Cocky & Funny Alpha Male In 3 Simple Steps

Friday, August 17th, 2007

By Weiss Bruce Jimmy* probably have the worst personality to pick up girls, at 23 he’s still a virgin and although he made good money from his programming job he couldn’t get any girls to like him. The problem is…he’s a nerd and is not comfortable talking to anyone (never mind girls). It’s not that he stutter or anything like that but more importantly his jokes aren’t funny and people are bored talking to him! I would always feel sorry for him when he’s the only one laughing at his own jokes often in a way that can’t even get a sympathy laugh. I decided to help him by guiding him around the materials he needs to read and answering any questions he has because I want him to get his this part of life sorted out. As it turns out, one month later he surprised me by his transformation! He’s even funnier than me now and I have to ask for his strategies or I’ll go crazy with curiosity! What I found out was most stunning, he didn’t follow my advice. He did something better. What he did was to combine my strategy with tons of other personal development & social skills tactics! They turn out to complement each other so well he was able to improve his skills far easier, faster and effectively than I ever will be. Man, I was blown away! I have to admit; at this stage I was jealous of his skills. He has truly surpassed his mentor in this area and as hard is it for my ego to swallow I asked for his help. This article is the result of his teachings and I’ve simplified it in a way that’s non geeky and simple to follow. I’ve tested it with outstanding results and improvement that I highly recommend you to follow exactly what’s outlined here. You will Be Charming Ladies Left & Right Before You Know It! Now Let’s Get Started… Being cocky and funny is probably 80% of the game most of the time; its useful asfiller on between methods like transitioning, isolation and etc to get her comfortable and suggestible to your ideas. (Suggestibility doesnt mean shell agree to everything but most likely will) This is also an area where a lot of guys have the most trouble with, I have devised three simple steps to achieve it but it doesnt mean its easy to achieve. In the seduction world, nothing easy is long lasting. The first step is to read lots of books on humor creating such as Melvin Helitzers book. Theres a lot of material outside but having Melvin book should be enough, after youve read it your concept of humor is still vague so the next step is to watch stand up comedy materials. What you going to do here is to find and detect patterns that are being used. You also can attend comedy class. To give you a quick crash course, being funny is basically saying something that surprises people and exaggerating things. These two combinations have helped me a lot with my sense of humor. In fact, it might be the two most potent combinations in the world. So exaggerate something that they werent expecting, so exaggerating something like she’s getting it for the one thousandth time wont get her laughing because she already know that person is doing that. It must be something unexpected and exaggerated. Create Your Jokes On The Fly After youve fully understand what principles and structure behind a joke its time for you to create your own jokes on the fly. When I first started the strategy I use was to write down a principle, for example I write down surprise + exaggeration principle on a piece of card and bring it to me everywhere while at the same time keep reminding myself to say something surprising and exaggerate it. The result? I became so funny girls are saying things like youre so funny! and close friends are commenting on the change. You want to do this for at least a week, better yet a month to really internalize this into your mind. Now while doing this it doesnt mean that youre just practicing that one method on your card, you can go off tangent anytime and apply every other technique you like. The purpose of the card is just to slowly assimilate into your subconscious and normal conversation. The card also serves as a trigger to the entire stand up comedy videos that you’ve watched. Note that funny movies work too if you don’t mind spending more time waiting for the comedy lines to appear. Practice Your Lines The third method is practice; you must be able to find lots of targets for practice so go out as often as you can and practice. This is really something that newbie dont get. You dont need to be perfect before you go out to pick up girls. You just want to have a conversation and improve your social skills not having sex of girlfriend right away (if you get lucky thats great but concentrate on this mindset) Using method 2, you will improve very fast so dont worry about the end goal (being pick up artist, getting a girlfriend and etc) When youre not practicing outside, you want to think about that strategy you have on your piece of paper. Think about how you can better apply it in your pick up game and write down any new ideas that came into your mind. Always try to structure everything constantly by repeating the sequence in your mind each time a new idea came to mind. When youre just starting out its helpful to have a structure in mind that you can follow, when you get good at these stuff your game would be dynamic so structure would basically hinder you. One last thing, you don’t have to talk to girls in order to practice. You can be funny to your guys friends as well. As a general rule, practice it to everyone who you came in contact with. Once you’re getting lots of great reaction you’ll start building your confidence so much it borders on arrogance. That’s cocky. Since jokes that makes people laugh are most likely a put down to another people you naturally portray cockiness. Use these 3 simple methods and youll be surprised.

Patio Umbrellas

Wednesday, August 15th, 2007

By Damian Sofsian Patio umbrellas help one enjoy the outdoors on a regular basis without overexposure to the elements. They shield from all the rigors of sun, wind, thunderstorm, pesky insects and even bird intrusions. They offer the perfect combination of sunlight and shade, fresh air and uncluttered space. Known as patio, garden or market umbrellas, they are used by amusement parks, hotels, motels, resorts, restaurants, cafes, rental outlets, outdoor kitchens and domestic consumers. Patio umbrellas come in many shapes, colors and sizes. Round, square, octagonal, rectangular or even side-post, market umbrella sizes vary from 6 feet to 13 feet with or without tilt facilities. They can accommodate 4 people or a larger group, depending on the patio space dimensions. Patio umbrellas can be simple roof protection, or like a tent (for greater privacy), or more up-market in design, with the entire patio enclosed in glass. They can be operated with a simple lever, a basic push-up system, a crank handle, dual pulley rope assembly or an electric auto lift. Retractable awnings are a great alternative for selective usage according to wayward weather patterns. The poles and framework can be of stained hardwood, pure ash, mahogany and teak, heavy-duty powder-coated steel or anodized rustproof aluminum with an antique bronze finish. Thick polycanvas canopies work best but other choices are mildew-resistant polyester, synthetic thatch or dyed and lacquered acrylic fabric for fade resistance and easy cleaning. Scotchguard-coated canopies resist stains, rain, sleet or snow, and can be easy to maintain. Wind vents are provided for stability and cool air circulation. Installation can be simple or complex, usually against a solid wall or buildings faade. Costs vary for a simple, do-it-yourself, stand-alone cover or a permanent enclosure that calls for a larger investment. Some patio umbrella models come with intricate light features where the wiring is built into the umbrella framework. Some embedded light systems come with continuous, chase, alternating and random settings. Low-voltage electric adaptors are also provided. Before installing a patio umbrella it is good to get estimates from local dealers and match them against your patio requirements. Warranties range from one year to the 5-year life span of an average patio umbrella. Extras that are thrown in include matching carry bags, and/or replaceable canvas or frames, lights, torches, mosquito netting or fabric cleaners. Some canopies require bases for additional stability, which come in granite, cast iron or even bases with wheels. To extend its life, close the umbrella canopy when not required, ensure it is regularly cleaned and spray it with UV umbrella protectant. Shade out all the extremities, snuggle up with a book, and laze under your cozy canopy for life.
