Marketing Update: Latest Trends

Value Matters: Sales and Discounts used to work very well. Consumers thought "it's on sale! I'm saving $20!". Consumers are smarter now. A sale doesn't really count unless it is something they need, in other words there is no value if they don't need it. They realize that if they are buying something that they normally WOULD NOT then they DO NOT need to buy it even if it is on sale.

Here are some ideas of how you can increase someone's (real or)…

Bald Love

MOTH AND BUTTERFLY by Terese Weir

Ever look in an empty cocoon as a most glorious butterfly leaves it? I’ll bet there’s a mirror in it.

When a woman loses her hair, which for her has been a safe haven and the only part of her body she truly believes is spectacular, she desperately wants to trust that her husband loves her for who she is, not for the dead protein on the top of her head.

RELATIONSHIP TIP OF THE WEEK: Earn Your Way Out

The number one reason relationships fail isn’t poor communication or growing apart or any of the other many reasons people give for the end of a relationship; it’s a lack of commitment to do whatever it takes to make the relationship work. At least that’s the view from the therapist’s chair in which I sit. In today’s world where there are so many single, separated and…

If someone is searching for a massage therapist for example the are most likely going to type "massage therapist" or "[city you are in] massage therapist".

So who needs it? If you are in a competitive industry then you…
