What do Klingons http://www.cheapairmax95clearance.com/ , giant rubber bands, and monster trucks all have in common? They hold the fascination of every male on the planet - and they make frequent appearances on Spike TV. Spike TV, which totes itself as a network for men, is the perfect example of the power of knowing your audience and giving them what they want.
In one week of watching Spike TV you can expect to see poker, ultimate fighting, demolition derbies cheap air max 2019 , cop shows, kung fu movies, school bus figure eight racing, pyrotechnic explosions, Klingons, customized cars cheap air max 720 , Chairman Tamori, giant rubber bands, sports superstars, Captain James T. Kirk, video game awards, Japanese trivia shows cheap air max 270 , dating competitions, MacGyver, and monster trucks. And that is only a partial list of what Spike TV offers men.
When it comes to your small or home business, knowing your audience, giving them what they want, and letting them know it's there for the buying are essential steps to establishing a consistent income.
Knowing Your Audience the Spike TV Way
The creators of Spike TV saw an opportunity in the television industry to create a network marketed toward a huge cheap air max 95 , almost completely neglected demographic of men. By creating a product men would be interested in (did I mention MacGyver?) and packaging it to succeed, they paved the way to truly become the "first network for men." Follow these steps to find out who your audience is and what their habits are.
First, categorize your potential customers or clients according to their similarities. You may create these groups based on age, socioeconomic status, gender, political activity level cheap air max 97 , or any other characteristic that is relevant to your business. Group your potential clients and customers based on characteristics they actually possess, rather than on features you would like them to have or that you think they should have. Just because men should be interested in keeping the kitchen clean does not mean Spike TV should create a show all about dish soap.
Second, distinguish between the categories of your customers that will purchase what you're selling and those that will not. When all is said and done, your business relies on the revenue customers generate to stay in business. If no men watched Spike TV it would not still be a viable, thriving network. It may be helpful, if you have the resources cheap air max 90 , to identify which categories of your customers might not buy right away, but may come back and purchase later.
Finally, discover how your customers will use or purchase your product. Spike TV no doubt was faced with the challenge of providing quality service to both Sci-Fi fans and Demolition Derby junkies. Some of your customers may purchase your product based on impulse, while others may be converting from one of your competitor's products. Still others may need information, testimonials, and a personal relationship with you before they spend money. Catering to your individual customers (by identifying categories and marketing to the ones that will buy what you're selling) increases the likelihood that they will return the next time they need your services.
Knowing your audience and meeting their individual needs can be the difference between barely scraping by and buying a yacht - or a school bus figure eight racing track of your very own.
How To Clear Clutter In 6 Simple Steps Self Help Articles | January 22 cheap air max shoes , 2011
Are you depressed because you have too much clutter? Do you think it is impossible to get rid of clutter? Do you just have too much stuff? You'll be in control in no time with just these 6 simple steps to clearing clutter.
It is winter here in Utah which means we have a lot of snow in our mountains. With the beautiful and fluffy snow comes snowboarding, snowmobilers and ski enthusiasts and (sorry to say) danger. There are times when accidents happen and an outing of snow sports become deadly. One way this happens is when snow is triggered off the mountain and there is an avalanche. People are buried and rescuers spring into action.
Do you feel like you are buried in clutter? Do you have clutter in every room until you are totally overwhelmed? Do you feel like you are being swept along in an avalanche of clutter? All it takes is some time and some easy (truly, it is easy) steps in clearing clutter and to organize "stuff" so you won't feel like you are being buried in your own home.
1. The first step is to look around your home, in drawers, closets, children's rooms cheap nike air max , the kitchen and even the front porch. Write down in a note book the places that have clutter. I have always thought organizing clutter was an oxymoron. If it is clutter then why organize it?
2. Make some plans to get rid of the clutter. Be as specific as you can. For example instead of saying, "I am going to get rid of clutter in my bedroom" be more specific. A goal could be; "remove everything from under the bed and put the things where they belong". Or, "get rid of all the shoes I don't wear, don't like or have nothing to wear with them". Making specific goals will help you to be successful in clearing clutter.
3. Once you have made your goals it is time to start clearing clutter. You will need three heavy plastic bags or boxes that you will label with 'trash', 'donate' and 'recycle'. Also get a basket or box to be used as a BE basket. This stands for Belongs Elsewhere. As you are clearing clutter and there are things that need to be taken to other rooms; place them in this basket to be moved after you are finished organizing in this space or room.
