If they're confused then they feel the need to keep searching for another solution. Marlon is going back to the very basics by reminding everyone that business is a very simple system. Nothin' happens till someone sells something. Find out what a group of people want really badly, figure out whether you can get something that would fill that desire to them and sell it to them. Keep it simple, get it done. The way to run a business and make money. This was a fun Marlon Rant. :)

]]> Comment on Rapid Action Profits Discount by Sabrina http://www.abizthatworks.com/blog/2008/06/rapid-action-profits-discount/#comment-10809 Mon, 15 Sep 2008 16:06:52 +0000 http://www.abizthatworks.com/blog/2008/06/rapid-action-profits-discount/#comment-10809 Well Ian, frankly I don't know that most of us can keep going back to old blog posts to make them current. Ok - I was about to go down a different road but your comment jogged my memory. I just jumped over to my Adwords account. Thanks for the reminder - even though it wasn't meant that way. It looks like I set the promotion up and forgot to set a reminder to stop it. It obviously wasn't getting many clicks before or I would've noticed it in a report. It's just something I set up on a lark using the <a target="_blank" href="http://campaignblasting.com">Campaign Blasting</a> method. In that method of doing PPC you don't really check back in on a campaign until it hits 300 clicks or gets sales... and this one hasn't done either as yet. My apologies for the apparent, unintentional deception. I'm pausing the promotion till I can redo it so you should see it gone in a bit.

Not exactly up front are you So if the promotion is gone why are you still promoting the discount in your publicity. Not exactly up front are you
