Place each one in a categorized file, so you can laser target messages to one audience at a time. If you sell books on your Web site, you can look like Barnes and Noble reaching thousands, even tens of thousands each day. Your visitor will have an easier time to find your product because you offer only a few on your site. If you are like me, you will enjoy keeping track of your increasing sales each month.
