All I can say I tried, I think any one thats buys a AMP is reckless to not take over the advertising email accounts, as goodwill is all in the advertising. I spoilt Scarlett to death as a test subject, yes she used to pay for a sub forum up to three years ago, all the work we did for her was at no cost over the last three years except a 365 day subscription at a $1 a day. I paused that subceription which has 126 days still to go as the new owner would have to add their email address to the account, and understand how to use the site. I feel for her as we are in our worst week of the year most business are down to 50-75% of the usual busines they do. Langtrees suffers also but our drop is only 25% of normal trading and only down 17% for the month of January.
I always use January to set us up for the year and all business needs marketing as well as advertising. I was taught to spend 10% of the turnover I wanted to achieve on adverting and marketing and I have alwyas kept to that rule. If it is good enough for McDonalds it is good enough for me.
When I first started out in Midland running a escort agency we spent 30% of our turnover in adverting and technically I was doing better 40 years ago at $120 an hour.
I often get knocked for our high prices, but I wanted to able to supply things like clean sheets and cleaninless. I was always scared my mother would call in and say my place looked like a brothel. She often used these words to me as a 18 yo bride. She taught me that my doorstep always had to be clean. She has passed on now but I learnt to look with her eyes, and whilst she didn;t like what I did for a living, and a very hard woman to get to know, with lots of persistence I am proud to say my mother learnt to love me as a woman, something she couldn't do when I was a child and I learnt to love her unconditionally and understand the hard upbringing she had. Mum I love you dearly xxxxxx
Its late and I go off track, one of the things I love about the forum is meeting someone down the track that actually took the time to read my ramble. Good Night.
