I know snail mail is very retro and ...

... everything, and we're all supposed to be strictly "online" folks here now, but ...

Does anybody have a US source for tearsheet mailings? And if not the whole mailing, then at least the printing?

Thanks,

Richard Dennis

Maybe I missed that day in Econ 101... But I do believe Internet Sales are just one avenue for the Direct Marketer.

By limiting yourself needlessly to one media, you can seriously curtail some very nice income streams.

You will note the number and amount of display ads, classified ads, etc. haven't dwindled any since the Online Marketer has evolved.

In fact... I'm finding myself switching back to the 'Old-style' way of doing business. eBooks are fine and fun... But I want a hard copy. No more ebook purchases for me.

As a plus... I've sent for free information to a number of companies and am on a broad variety of mailing lists. It's surprising to see what I'm receiving! And to top it off!!! I've dropped a couple hundred dollars this last week on stuff I didn't even think I wanted!

Mail order is very much alive and well!

Success and Regards... Mike

Hi Mike,

I think Jim Straw would wholeheartedly agree with you, for instance.... And I'm also working on having my own "physical" products too, at least (for now) for Australia and New Zealand....

For example, I'm planning to market Gordon Alexander's tapes, "Think and Reach Par" to the Australasian market....

The main "dream" of online marketing is having an "automatic" system, that you set up and which runs automatically to bring the money in....

However, I don't think that things really work that way. The closest might be having an affiliate program, but even then you still need to provide support for your affiliates.... And without an affiliate program, you have to keep promoting....

Just putting a web page up, and waiting for people to come, doesn't work in the fast-changing world of e-commerce.... So you've got to keep working at it, keep things fresh and new....

But I still like ecommerce.... The potential is incredible. And with recent new developments in syndication -- as Gordon has recently pointed out -- just increases the number of new opportunities, especially for writers and other content providers.... As you probably know, ePubAdvisor is aimed at helping people to fully realize these new opportunities....

But can you make money with practically no work?

The answer is YES -- through investments. The catch is -- you must have some money already. You have to spend either your *money* or your *time* -- there's no other way that I know of.

And with investments, you still need to do some work to set the investment up (to do your research, etc.).

But once it's set up, and if you've done your research work well, then you'll have an automatic "passive income flow" coming in, month after month, year after year.... and you can set it up so you don't have to do anything to keep it going....

Cheers,

Dien

I haven't talked with the company in about
