Besides modernizing public domain text, another alternative is recreating copyright-free images. Again, you do not have to be an artist to do this sort of thing. You do, however, need to know a little about digital art software like Photoshop or Corel Draw.

With the help of a good image editing software, you can make alterations in a public domain image, depicting tired old works like Da Vinci’s Mona Lisa or Picasso’s Woman in front of the Mirror in a humorous twist.

In fact, there may already be several funny depictions of these works circulating the net – propaganda posters like the US Government’s We Can Do It!, Leonardo da Vinci’s The Vetruvian Man, and many more. These images are in the public domain so they are free for use by the public any which way they want.

Once you have a collection of these “modernized” public domain images, you can group them and publish them as themed calendars, posters, bumper stickers, coffee mugs, or other gift items. You can even print your products and sell them online as t-shirts, hats, book bags, cards, and more.

There are two ways of doing this. You can hire a company that specializes in promotional products. Have them make an inventory of all your altered public domain images so you can store them and ship them whenever a buyer decides to purchase from your site. Or, you can enlist the services of a Print on Demand company like Café Press or Lulu and let them reproduce or reprint copies of your public domain images.

101 Internet Safety Tips For Kids Personal Use Ebook With Audio & Video

70. Go Direct.

Instead of using a search engine to access sites, have children type the url directly into the address bar or use a bookmark. This will eliminate the possibility of offensive or unrelated sites being accessed from a web search.

71. Search Engine Filter.

Using a filtering program can help eliminate inappropriate results from a web search. Without a filter, a web search can bring up material that children should not see.

72. Assume Permanence.

Teach children to operate under the assumption that everything they post on-line is permanent and can be found by predators or hackers even after deletion. While social networking pages and websites can be deleted, people who know how to find it can still access the information.

73. Blog Privacy.

If your child wants to write in a blog or web diary, find a site that allows private and password-secured blogs. Blogs with privacy protection will ensure that your child's personal profile is not revealed. Modify the blog settings so comments can not be added to posts; this will reduce spam and negative or offensive feedback.

74. Positive Examples.

Find content-appropriate blogs made by other children as an example for your child to model his or hers after. Good examples may be blogs centered on a favorite sports team, television show, or hobby.

75. Review Their Posts.

Screen your child's writing or photos before they are posted on-line to ensure that they do not include too much personal information. Watch out for less obvious identifiers, like school mascot names and names of friends.

76. Protect Emotions.

Blog and diary content can include very personal topics. Ask your child if he or she is comfortable sharing the content with strangers before they post it. If he or she is not sure, do not post.

77. Be a Detective.

Perform occasional web searches for your child's name, address and other identifying factors to see if they have posted any personal information on a website. This research can also help you determine if your child started a website or blog without your knowledge.

78. Watch for Obsessive Behavior.

E-mail and social networking can become an addiction for adults and children. Watch for signs of obsession, including constantly wanting to check for new messages or frustration when not able to access the sites.

79. Vulnerability.

Be aware of blog posts or discussion board comments that show emotional vulnerability. Not only are these what Internet predators look for, but they could be signs of emotional stresses and troubles that your child is not comfortable sharing with you.

80. Cyberbullying.

Bullies no longer exist only in the classroom. Oftentimes, the same child who bullies a child in person will begin to bully on-line through chat or instant messages. Look for signs of cyberbullying, like a child becoming upset when online or a not wanting to go to school.

81. Golden Rule.

Don't allow your child to bully or gossip about others on-line. Even though the interactions are not in-person, the same rules of conduct and respect should apply. Have disciplinary consequences for not treating others kindly.

82. Honesty.

Do not allow your children to pretend that they are someone else online. This includes not listing their actual age on social networking sites. Instead of lying, teach them to use privacy controls to hide information and not answer questions that make them feel uncomfortable or would require them to reveal personal information.

83. Piracy.

Do not allow children to download, share, or duplicate copyrighted software or music without paying. Even if your child is not distributing the material further, use of pirated software and music is still illegal. Explain that it is stealing and there are serious legal consequences.

84. Block File-Sharing.

File-sharing network sites often distribute copyrighted material. The unknown source of the download creates privacy and virus risks. Many file sharing software programs also place a file on your computer that allows others to receive files from you, with or without your knowledge.

85. Use Voice Chat With Care.

Some on-line video games allow for voice chatting. Be sure that if children participate, they follow the same rules as in a text chat room and do not divulge personal information to strangers. Keep in mind that predators may disguise their voices to sound like children even though they are adults.

86. Encourage Playing with Friends.

Recommend that your child play on-line games and chat with friends from school and other activities instead of exclusively communicating with on-line only friends. Knowing everyone personally creates the safest environment for on-line play.

87. Know the Games.

Become aware of the games your child plays on-line. Understand the rules, content, and average player age. Playing games with your kids is a good way to get involved in their on-line activities without appearing too intrusive.

88. Minimize Fees.

Many on-line video games have monthly service fees that children may not know about until parents receive the bill. Steer your kids towards free games that do not require submission of personal credit card information.

89. Prohibit Gambling.

Remind your children that it is illegal for minors to gamble on-line. Even though it's not real money, discourage use of non-monetary casino gambling games (like free poker and blackjack), as they still operate around a wagering system that can lead to actual gambling in the future.

90. Supervise.

Young children should not use the Internet without supervision. Always stay with young kids while they are on-line to answer questions and eliminate the possibility of wandering onto an inappropriate site.

91. Role Model.

All members of the family members should act as positive role models for children who are just beginning to use the Internet. Everyone should follow the same rules of conduct with respect to safety concerning the sharing of personal information. Parents especially should practice what they preach with regard to software piracy, pornography, and chat rooms.

92. Cyberdating.

Discourage teens from using websites to meet potential boyfriends or girlfriends. These sites are intended for adults, and many have niches that may not be appropriate for anyone younger than 18 years old. In addition, people are not always what they seem, and these romance sites are a haven for Internet predators.

93. Review Browser History.

Take a look at the history of sites visited to see where your child went on-line and what they did. Confront them with indiscretions or questions you have about their web browsing activities.

94. Webcams.

While webcams can be useful for video chat with friends or longdistance relatives, ensure that children use the device appropriately. Children should avoid video chat with strangers because of the physical recognition factor. Review your child's videos before they are posted or distributed to others.

Chapter 13 Finding and Choosing Music to Play

You can learn and enjoy playing music you make up and write or make up and improvise on the spot. Sooner or later, you will want to find some sheet music or songbooks for more music. You can get music in music stores or online easily, but it may not be the music you want to try and play. You need to find music that suits your level of play and the best way to do this is to just look at the music.

If you are buying in a store, you can examine the books or sheet music thoroughly before you buy. One thing you can look at is how many sharps or flats the songs in the songbook tend to have. A song that uses too many of the black keys is harder to play when you are first starting out. Also, for some reason, many people find the sharp key signatures more difficult to manage than the flat key signatures. Look, too, at the difficulty of the chords. If the chords are clusters of many notes, you will know that the chords will not be as easy as simple triads. Take note of whether there are chords of four or five notes together on both left and right hands. You can learn these if you want to, but be prepared to work a little bit. Look for difficult rhythms. You might see a lot of dotted notes or notes with different values mixed together to make up a measure. Again, you can take your time and learn these songs, clapping out the rhythms until you have them down before you play. However, if you are looking for some quick success, look for more even and simple note values.

Besides looking at sheet music and songbooks that are already printed, there is another way to buy music in a music store now. Many stores have a special computer set aside for making copies of music. You choose the song you want from a list and if you only know a few words, you may still be able to find the song if the search tools are good enough. After you have selected your song, you get the opportunity to look at the music. You can look at the music from beginning to end, but you cannot copy it until you agree to buy it. The artists are protected in this way because the store pays the royalties from your payment when you buy the copies. You should expect the copies to be high quality and on good paper. You can also get sheet music online but you usually do not get as good of a look at the music you are about to buy. You are more likely to get a small sample to give you an idea of what the music is like. The online companies do not like to show too much because it is too easy for people to steal work that is printed on the internet. They will send you your choices by mail or by download as soon as you pay.

No matter how you get your music, be sure that you get the music you like and you will be able to play in the near future. There is no need to stockpile music for that someday when you will suddenly be playing like a pro. Instead, get songbooks and sheet music that you are ready to use right away.

Chapter 14 Practicing on Your Own

If you are playing the piano as an adult self-learner, you will do best if you work in some practice time most days. You might like to establish a routine of how you will go about your practice. You can do things in a certain order, or you can mix things up differently every day. One thing you should always do when you practice is to play scales.

You do not have to play every scale every day - you might want to focus on the flat scales one day and the sharp scales the next. You do not even have to take it that far - just be sure that you practice scales of some kind for awhile before you begin to play. Next, play some chords. Build on the scales you have played and make up as many chords as you can manage in the time you have allotted to spend on the exercise. The more you play your scales and chords, the better you will be when it comes to improvising. You will even play written music better because it will make more sense.

It is a good idea to have a set musical piece to play every time you practice before you start playing other songs. It can be any song that you can play fairly easily and something that gives you a feeling of satisfaction is always a good choice. Make sure you do not pick a song that is new or tricky for this - you want to start out with a positive experience. You can work on the hard music later in the practice session.

After you have played your starting piece, go on to play songs you have been working on. Go over the rough spots carefully and try to play them from beginning to end without stopping. At this point it is a good time to sight-read any new music you have on hand and want to try. Then, take a little break. Get a drink of water, have something to eat, or make a phone call, then go back to the piano and finish your practice. Many people believe that you have to sit down and play until you are exhausted but this is not true - they never consider that taking a break can breathe new life into your playing.

Once you have had a break, you can use the rest of the time to improvise, making up music based on the chords and scales you played earlier. If you prefer, you can go in a completely new direction. Let this be your time for enjoyment and pure pleasure and, with the right attitude, improvisation does not seem like work at all but rather more like complete freedom.

26 Market your web site as a free club instead of a web site. This'll increase your repeat visitors and sales because people enjoy belonging to groups. You could have a members’ message board, give visitors' membership IDs, give them membership graphics to place on their web sites, etc.

27 Interact with your online customers on a regular basis. This'll show them you care about them. You could use a chat room, forum or an online message system. Always be interested in what people have to say, answer their questions, give them compliments, and take the time to talk about things other than just business, etc.

28 Check your web site links regularly. If people click on a link and it doesn't work, they usually won't risk wasting their time clicking on another one. For example, would you revisit a web site after two of the links you really wanted to click on didn’t work? You probably wouldn't even bookmark the site.

29 Give visitors a positive experience when they're at your web site. Provide them with original content and free things. They'll tell all of their friends about it. You could also persuade them to tell their friends about it by starting an affiliate program. It could pay per sale, per click or per lead.

30 Share customers with other businesses that have the same target audience. Offer their product to your customers if, in exchange, they do the same for you. For example, if your business is selling toys, you could cross-promote a business that sells kids’ games. You both have a similar target audience.

Student Loan Consolidation PLR Ebook

Ebook Sample Content Preview:

There is one particular truth when it comes to student loans – you can’t hide from them. It may sound extreme though, but school loans are completely immune to bankruptcy and those students or graduates that failed to pay their bills face stiff punishments. The usual consequences are poor credit ratings, garnishment of wages, and IRS penalties.

Besides, attaining licenses in certain fields is impossible when you failed to pay off your student loan debts. There is even a chance that you may be excluded from some government contracts if you own a small business. With all these consequences, it is then clear that avoiding a student loan is no way to start a life after college. If you do come back and take out more and more student loans, you will be able to consolidate again after graduation.

In the end, about half of the students coming out of college have actually gained their degrees. Of course, it can be tough to remain and stay in school with financial burdens, and it is harder to come back. But, thanks to student loan consolidation that creating one less barrier to coming back to school and keeping your credit rating clean is now possible.

The Right Period to Consolidate

In the government consolidation loan program, it is interesting to know that there are actually no deadlines connected to it. It is supported by the fact that you can apply for the student loan anytime during the grace period or even on the repayment period. But to consolidate student loans, some considerations must be paid attention. To consolidate student loans, you should know that it usually take place during your grace period. At this moment, the lower in-school interest rate will then be applied to estimate the weighted average fixed rate to consolidate student loans. And once the grace period has ended on your government student loans, the higher in-repayment interest rate will be applied to estimate the weighted average fixed rate. Given such process, it is then understandable that your fixed interest rate for government student loan consolidation will be higher if you consolidate student loans after your grace period.

And when you are interested to consolidate student loans, you should know that even of your student loans are already in repayment, to consolidate student loans is still allowed and beneficial. It is for the reason that when you consolidate student loans at this time, you already fix the interest rate on your government student loans while the rates are still originally low.

The Essentials Of Selling More Online Mrr Ebook

Introduction

I guess that most of us have a pretty clear idea of what selling is. After all, once we reach our adult years, most of us have been ‘sold to’ dozens of times already and as we go through life, it’s going to happen again and again, probably with ever increasing frequency.

But familiarity breeds contempt as they say, so let me ask you a question.

Have you ever really sat down and thought exactly what selling is, or have you searched the net for ideas and definitions of exactly what selling is all about?

I ask because as an experiment for this book, I did search the net for ideas and concepts about selling and was quite frankly amazed at the diversification and range of opinions and ideas of what selling really is. From straightforward dictionary definitions – ‘the exchange of goods for an agreed sum of money’ (from Princeton WordNet) – to some far more detailed and esoteric descriptions, it’s clear that selling means many different things to different people.

And whilst research of this nature might all seem a bit like time being wasted (we all know what selling is, so why bother investigating it?), I disagree for a couple for reasons that are extremely relevant to you if you are trying to sell online.

Firstly, selling online is not the same as selling offline. Whilst the online and offline business worlds have lots in common – far more in fact than many online marketers would have you believe – selling on the internet and in the local high street or shopping mall is not the same.

Secondly, many people don’t think they can sell, or are not at all comfortable with the idea of having to do so if they were to set up their own online business.

Apart from the fact that each and every one of us is already a salesperson – if you have ever been employed or have a girlfriend, boyfriend or spouse, you did a pretty good job of selling yourself to someone – I am going to dispel all of the negative myths about selling in this book and show you exactly why selling on the net is absolutely the best place to do so.

Even if you believe that could not sell iced drinks in the Sahara (a belief which is completely wrong anyway) you’re going to discover that you can and exactly how you do eat. Indeed, you’re going to discover why if you’re running an online business, it is your duty to sell as much as you can to your customers if you genuinely want to provide the best possible level of service you can to them.

Why selling online is often easier…

The dictionary definition in the introduction of what selling is all about is simple and straightforward and covers most of what you need to know about the physical act of selling. This does however ignore the psychology of selling which is something to which we will return on many occasions in this report.

However, if we accept this basic definition for the time being, we can begin to look at the differences between selling on the internet and selling products or services in the real world of high street, bricks and mortar businesses.

The major difference between selling online and doing so in the real world is that the whole process of selling on the internet is far less personal than it would be if you were selling products or services to local businesses in your neighborhood.

For example, imagine that you are a sales person for a local offline business. In this case, you would be constantly calling existing customers and prospects on the telephone, making appointments to go and see them, sorting out problems for your customers and so on. In short, everything about your job would be hands-on and whilst a degree of what you do would not be face-to-face, a significant proportion of your everyday work activities would involve meeting customers and prospects in person.

As someone who has over 25 years experience running sales teams who sold a huge range of products and services in the real world (from long-term investment plans to toner cartridges for laser printers), I can tell you that for most people who do not think that they can sell, meeting customers or prospects face to face is the most fraught and stressful aspect of the selling idea. This is perfectly natural because in a face-to-face meeting of this nature, you are at your most exposed and ‘naked’. You are in a position where you feel uncomfortable and perhaps even embarrassed which is unfortunately a position where mistakes are most often made.

For instance, I have seen many young salespeople being far too eager to please prospects and customers who have fallen into the trap of making very basic errors in their understandable eagerness to keep their customer (and their boss) happy.

One classic situation is where, upon being faced with a question to which they do not know the answer, they make what is (at best) a fairly uneducated guess at what they think might be the correct response. This is instead of doing the correct thing by telling the customer truthfully that they don’t know the answer but that they would go straight back to the office to find the information before reporting back to the customer.

The latter ‘investigate and report back’ strategy becomes more natural and comfortable as experience teaches you that you can never know everything about your business and that your customers don’t really expect you to either. In the early days however, it’s a different story, because it is often hard for new salespeople to admit that they don’t know everything.

Now, contrast this scenario with the online selling situation. When you promote a product or service online, you almost never end up talking to a customer on the telephone, far less meeting them. This does not of course mean that you cannot do so and there might be advantages to doing so as we shall see.

Nevertheless, partially because of the truly global nature of online business and partially because it is not really expected, the vast majority of online marketers will only ever have a limited amount of personal contact with their prospects and customers. Furthermore, any personal contact that exists is unlikely to require an immediate, ‘on the spot’ response to queries or questions either, so there is a good deal less pressure involved too.

As most communication between online business owners and customers or prospects is likely to be by e-mail or by short messages being pinged backwards and forwards via a messaging service such as Skype, Yahoo or MSN, it is far less likely that you will make the mistakes prompted by trying to provide immediate information in the way that there is in the offline business world. There is considerably less pressure in other words.

21 Turn your ad copy into a story or article. Your visitors won't be as hesitant to read your ad and will become more interested in your product. For example, you could start your ad by saying, "Once upon a time…" Another example would be to start your ad out with "FREE Report!" Or "How To..."

22 Give visitors a freebie for filling out your online survey otherwise they usually won't. Surveys will give your business valuable intelligence for your business. For example, you could say, "Everyone who completes this survey will get a FREE watch!" Another example, "The first 200 people who complete this survey get a free calculator!"

23 Enhance the power of your ad copy benefits by using attention-getting words, highlighting keywords, using color, using quotes, bolding key phrases, underlining, etc. For example, "Instant Profits", “Super Fast Results”, “Lose Weight”, “Save Money”, “Increase Sales”, etc.

24 Give your visitors lots of choices so they don't get the feeling of being controlled. Offer them a variety of ways to order, contact you, navigate, etc. For example, “Choose the Basic or Deluxe.” Another example, “Order by web site, phone or fax.”

25 Put yourself in your visitors' shoes. Design your site for them, not for yourself. Create your product around your visitors, not because you would buy it. For example, if you were selling to people who were thinking of going bankrupt, think about how they feel. They would likely want to avoid bank- ruptcy, they would feel tired of not be able to afford anything, they would be fed up with creditors calling, etc.

Student Loan Repayment Tips PLR Ebook

Ebook Sample Content Preview:

As you enter the repayment period, note that being aware of your student loan obligations is very crucial. This is where the student loan default usually happens. It occurs when you fail to pay back the loan as agreed or meet the other terms of your promissory note. The promissory note for each of the loans must then be referred prior to your graduation or before you leave school so that you know what your rights and responsibilities are in repayment. Here is what you should do as you enter the repayment period:

Send your education loan payments when due every month, for the full monthly payment amount or more. This must be done regardless of whether or not you receive a bill.

Note and understand the repayment options provided by your student loan lenders. With some available options, there is a possibility that you can lessen the total cost of the loan by making a high monthly payment. Other options may even lessen your initial monthly payments and may make it easier for you to pay back your leans early in your career.

Understand the deferment as well as forbearance. In case you need them, just learn to exercise your options.

Remember that the loan consolidation and its repayment options have its pros and cons. So, understand them.

Keep your school, lender or servicer informed of your whereabouts. Contact them immediately if you change your name or address; have questions about billing statements; have problems making your scheduled payment on time; or if you want information on or application for deferment or forbearance.

Read, note and understand all the correspondence you receive from your student loan lender, loan holder, or servicer. And, respond them promptly if asked to do so.

This is something that no one is doing at all that I know of and I'm pretty sure no one is doing it at all or ever.

As you know, when someone signs up for your newsletter at your website, they are then taken to another page that confirms their subscription.

Most people just put something like "Thank you for subscribing to my newsletter, why not check out this product" and really don't make use of this extra bit of advertising that they have to use.

The idea I've been tinkering with is to setup a continuous thank you page. After your subscriber signs up for your newsletter and they go to your thank you page, why not offer them a chance to sign up for another newsletter or E-course you might have.

This way, you could possibly get the same subscriber on 3 or 4 of your lists. So everytime they subscribe to one of your lists, they are taken to another thank you page that asks them to subscribe to another of your lists, and so on.
