Hub You - The Law of Sowing and Reaping Pt.1
Setting up your ecommerce site was no simple process, but in creating a successful ecommerce business, setting up the site is only the first step. Promoting your ecommerce site is what will determine whether or not you make a profit. How you promote your ecommerce site will determine how much profit you will make the first month, the first year, and for the life of the business.First things first: the reason you have an ecommerce site is to sell your products. Each page that lists a product needs to have words to offer the consumer as much information as possible about the product that you have to offer. Because your pictures don't have the benefit of touch and three dimensional site, your pictures need to offer as many angles as possible, including close-ups and labels if applicable. In this way, your customer can feel confident that he or she is going to get exactly what they want.Search engines, however, can't see pictures. The only way that search engine spiders will pick up your site when a customer searches a key phrase that relates to your product is if you have text that relates to that product on the page. Include it in the title bar for the page, in the header and throughout the descriptive text. Use variations of the words within the product name as well
We can see that God designed all the many plants to produce after their own kind, and He declared that the seed would be in itself. In other words the plant would produce the seed that would in turn produce another plant and so on forever. My point being the seed has a specific purpose, that being to reproduce according to the
Repeat. Marketing Mantras Make Money. Repeat. Marketing Mantras Make Money. Again.A mantra is a religious prayer or mystical phrase or poem that instills concentration when repeated and is used for meditation and prayer. The key is to focus on the mantra and to block out everything else.A marketing mantra is three to five words that describes how your business or offering is different. It must be easy to say and remember while being easily understood. If it is in writing, it should leap off the page with authenticity and integrity. It can be used internally or externally. It should say how you are different instead of how you are the same.Your marketing mantra should be positive. Study after study shows that positive messages sell better than negative messages and so it is with mantras. Many marketing messages are negative. Who can forget “American Express: Don’t Leave Home without it?” I always feared what might happen if chose to leave without it, so I switched to MasterCard.Mantras help focus your employees and your customers on what makes your offering different. This focus is critical since customers buy because of your differences, not because you are like the competition or have similar benefits. An example of a marketing mantra is “Diamonds Ar
The Living Bible says it like this… Galatians 6:7 Don't be misled; remember that you can't ignore God and get away with it: a man will always reap just the kind of crop he sows!
Through out God's Word there is much said about sowing and reaping. This is a spiritual law that can't be negated. The Living Bible says it so simply, a man will always reap just the kind of crop he sows. The analogy here of spiritual sowing is being compared to sowing seed for a crop. This is not so hard for farmers or gardeners to understand. In the natural you know that if you sow corn you are not going to get pumpkins. Why is this so hard for us to equate in the spiritual realm? We are going to look at this law and learn what God's Word has to say about it and begin to apply these truths to our lives.
One of the first things we should look at is what exactly is sowing in the spiritual realm. In the natural realm it is easy, you take some type of seed and you dig a hole in the ground and place the seed in the hold at a predetermined depth. You also have to water it and so on, however the seed itself does the work. Because there is life already in the seed, the seed germinates and grows into the type of plant that produced the seed in the first place doesn’t it? We see this law being put into place by God in the very first chapter of Genesis, let's take a look.
Genesis 1:11 Then God said, "Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb that yields seed, and the fruit tree that yields fruit according to its kind, whose seed is in itself, on the earth''; and it was so. 12. And the earth brought forth grass, the herb that yields seed according to its kind, and the tree that yields fruit, whose seed is in itself according to its kind. And God saw that it was good.
We can see that God designed all the many plants to produce after their own kind, and He declared that the seed would be in itself. In other words the plant would produce the seed that would in turn produce another plant and so on forever. My point being the seed has a specific purpose, that being to reproduce according to the
VOIP – the new Internet phone – stands for Voice Over Internet Protocol. What this means, is you use your broadband internet connection to make phone calls. Sounds really good, especially since it has free long distance and its only $25 a month. But there are 2 major drawbacks.911 Service doesn’t work like a landline phone. In some areas, it doesn’t work at all. There are severe risks to consumers thinking 911 can save them in an emergency, but the internet phone doesn’t work that way. Be careful or review your plan to make sure you understand how the 911 service works. The FCC has been on these companies to straighten this out or inform consumers of the risks.The 2nd problem seems minor compared to the above, but I don’t like being tied to my PC when making a call, even if I’m wearing a headset. www.ipero.com makes a real cool $30 phone that plugs into my USB and works like a regular phone. Its lightweight has a mute and speed dial, and the sound is great. Its compact and I can take it on the road with me. Many VOIP phones only work with PC’s, but this one works with a Mac, too.There are still some concerns with VOIP technology, but once the companies get around them, the consumers will have a great product. Besides, at $25 a month, you can over

In many sections of the country the home purchase market has slowed down. Prices of homes for sale seemed to go through the roof. Mortgage interest rates, while still low historically, are up from last year. During this volatile time the homebuyer can choose from a number of options. Fixed rate mortgages give the purchaser of a home a secure way to finance that home. Fixed rate mortgages allow for a more certain base from which to budget house payments for the future.Recently, much activity in home purchase loans has been in the category of conventional adjustable rate loans. Adjustable rate loans offer some really attractive features. One is a lower entry rate generally than a fixed rate mortgage. There is a designated period of time when the buyer is paying that lower rate. The risk element is that the payment more than likely go up when it starts adjusting. This could really disrupt your budget, since your property taxes and homeowners insurance will be going up also over a period of time. But, the amount of increases could be minimal. The money you save by getting that lower rate up front could result in some real savings. So the real benefit is getting into the house with lower payments thereby affording the new payments.Another popular way of getting into

If you were to ask your employees or your customers what they thought of your business, what do you think they would say? Do you think they would be as positive if they were asked the same question by a stranger who happens to be a potential buyer of your business?Not knowing the kind of reputation your business has can come back to bite you when you decide to sell. Most people interested in buying a small business (or even a large one) will do some investigating into the reputation of your business. Of course they won’t ask you – they’ll ask your employees, your vendors and suppliers, your customers, your competitors, and local community.Maintaining your business’s reputation should be a priority for any business owner, and not just because of the impact it can have on a sale. Your business’s image can attract or repel customers, too.Here are some of the things that can negatively affect your business’s reputation, and some tips to improving a tarnished reputation when it comes time to sell.Relationships That Matter Your customer is #1, right?

We can see that God designed all the many plants to produce after their own kind, and He declared that the seed would be in itself. In other words the plant would produce the seed that would in turn produce another plant and so on forever. My point being the seed has a specific purpose, that being to reproduce according to the life that God placed in it. That is a very incredible thing to consider.
God has given us seed to sow, yet most of us don't understand this principle and use the seed for our own pleasures. We consume the seed instead of planting it. We may plant a certain amount of seed. We sow a little here and a little there. However we are not sowing the seed for the purpose of harvesting. I am not pointing my finger at anyone to criticize them, only pointing out an observation. I am learning just like we all are. The purpose of planting seed is to reproduce the parent plant. Farmers practice this on a large scale and gardeners do it on a smaller scale. You harvest what you have planted. You sow for the specific purpose of harvesting. You don’t sow because you have nothing better to do. When harvest time comes and it will, you reap the harvest. If you didn't want a harvest you wouldn't have sown in the first place, would you? I have said all of this to make the point that if we want a spiritual harvest we have to sow.
There are also other consideration we should look at as well. There is a time to sow. You would not sow certain types of seed in the middle of the winter, as they are summer crops, and you would not plant winter crops in the heat of the summer. The temperature of the soil is vital to the germination and growth of the seed into a mature plant. God has a time for spiritual sowing as well. I have found He will lead you at certain times to sow into very specific ministries. He wants you to sow your seed at a very specific time. The spiritual temperature will be just right for that seed to germinate and grow into a mature plant. The mature plant is the plant that produces the harvest. An immature plant might start to produce but then not yield
