New Energy-Saving Website

New Websites No Comments »

Whilst PlugandSave.com is doing incredibly well, we find that the platform it was built with is very inflexible and the site is very hard to update.

We are now working on a new site that will incorporate all the information from PlugandSave.com and will cover other energy-saving products and services such as energy-efficient lighbulbs, solar energy, e-books etc. 

We have now registered a domain name and have begun populating the site and modifying the template.  It should be complete and ready to launch within 5-6 weeks. It’s being built with Joomla 1.5 as we’ve gained a lot of experience using it.

We’ll update you once the design and content is ready.
 

Our First Lead-Generation Website

New Websites, Opportunities No Comments »

We’re working in partnership with an established financial consultants in Thailand to generate leads.

Today we registered a new domain name and have installed a basic HTML template on it.  It will be 3-4 weeks before the site is completed as we’re docusing on two other sites as well.

We registered today with Mark Vurnum’s Lead-Generation Video Course and, based on the first 30 minutes of his tutoriual videos we are impressed and excited to get started.  It seems like the hardest part about lead-generation is finding businesses to buy leads and yet we’ve got this already finalized.

We’ll update you in a few weeks once the site is ready for inspection.

 

 

Twitter.com - Introduction to MicroBlogging

Marketing, Opportunities No Comments »

Twitter.com is an interesting new website that helps you keep updated about how your friends, industry gurus and businesses are doing.

The idea behind twitter is you add your friends to your list and get notified whenever they provide a news update.  These updates are limited to just 160 characters of text.  Socially you can use it to update all your friends with a phase such as "going to bed now" or similar mundanities however it’s being used now by internet marketers.

Many internet marketers now have their own Twitter accounts and keep their fans updated with promotions, weblinks etc. 

What’s nice is that the information is not being pushed at you too aggressively.  You can view these updates by logging in to Twitter, by syncronizing the messages with existing messenger applications, or by using custom software that lists your Twitter updates whenever you choose to view them.

We’ve seen Twitter used for shameless self-promotion e.g.  "only 15 more minutes until my special one-time-only offer finishes!!!!", for getting answers to questions (You can sent perivate messages between twitter accounts) and to update people on what websites a programmer is currently working on.

We now have our own Twitter account with the username"  truepotential and we update it perhaps once a day.  If you currently use Twitter please add us to see how our business develops.

There is a chance that Twitter will not grow too big.  The idea is quite a novelty for now but with the popularity of RSS subscriptions, email lists, podcasts, SMS advertising, social networking sites, messengers, voIP clients etc. Twitter may soon be yet another distraction that fails to really offer any value to it’s users. 

That said, we may be wrong, and Twitter could be the next big thing.

US Bank Accounts for Non-Americans

Financial 2 Comments »

After 14 months of frustrations we are delighted to now have a US business bank account with a reputable bank.

This is extremely valuable to us because most of our clients are based in America and, undeniably the $US is the currency of e-commerce.

Aside from accepting bank transfers to our business name, we can now use Google Checkout as a payment processor and, should we choose to, we are one step closer to being approved for a merchant account.
