A burning desire to be and to do is the starting point from which the dreamer must take off. Dreams are not born of indifference, laziness or lack of ambition.

Subscription Exchanges

Exchange subscription information with fellow ezine publishers. Provide recommendations within your ezine's welcome message, thank you page and even on your multiple subscription ezine form.

You can each use a simple link, or you can integrate it with your subscription form. This works best if both ezines target the same audience.

Create a Cassette

+++++++++++++++++

Although this article talks about cassettes, you can do the same thing by recording mp3 files, record it on a cd.

Cassettes are a great marketing tool. You can put your information on a tape and let people listen to it on their way to work, while they are relaxing, or while they're working. The recording industry is doing their best to phase out cassettes which have never been as profitable as CDs.

But the simple cassette just won't die. Almost everyone has a cassette player and will for years to come. Record your tape yourself. If you use a small recorder or boom box, get a cheap microphone from Radio Shack to improve the sound. You can also record using the sound card on your computer. Check the multimedia section of tucows.com for software that lets you record four tracks. This will let you add music to the beginning and end of your talk.

Check with musicians and music stores for small but well- equipped home studios who can do a professional job for very little money.

Look in the Yellow Pages for cassette duplication firms. Shorter cassettes tailored to the length of your talk can cost from 15 to 30 cents per tape.
