Major Developments, Forward Motion and Actionable Items


February 16, 2009


Bulletin # 4

Some significant service updates are underway at THE NATIONAL NETWORKER. In addition to being the nation’s leading authoritative publication regarding networking and Relationship Capital, we are fast becoming the foremost provider of networking, marketing, public relations, image-building, distribution, communications and financial resources in the United States and internationally. Most of our services are now fully-installed, and ready to use.


Welcome to your new universe of Powerful Resources, Tangible Results and Exponential Growth through Cooperation and Partnership. Be proactive – start to visualize yourself as a stakeholder in TNNW, instead of as a passive outsider.

The bottom line: TNNW has more to offer you than ever before, and our offerings for both Subscribers and Members are increasing. As always, our Subscribers will still receive our weekly Newsletter, as well as the RSS and email feeds, free of charge. Additionally, our Subscribers will receive significant discounts on all products, publications and services which they purchase through the advertisers and affiliates whose buttons, links and ads appear in our Newsletter, on our website, and on our network of blogs (there are in excess of 10 of 'em!). By next week, this Bulletin will feature the newly-concocted TNNW OMNIGADGET.

The OMNIGADGET is a single-button navigation tool that will enable every reader to completely navigate our network of blogs, and to access every one of our services. In fact, the as-yet-unrevealed TNNW OMNIGADGET will be featured on every Newsletter and on every blog page in order for our readers to explore the ever-expanding universe that is (cue Star Trek theme)...THE NATIONAL NETWORKER.


***You will want to carefully read every single item of information in this briefing. Please be certain to save this document for your files and ready reference. And of course, our excellent and informative articles for this issue follow…

Announcements and Advertisements:


ADVERTISING WITH THE NATIONAL NETWORKER GETS RESULTS. We offer you nine options. Please take a moment to check out our Advertisements & Announcements page at http://tnnw9.blogspot.com/ .

OPTION 1: TEXT BOX ADS

Text Box ads appear in the second to last slot before the Three-Liners in each weekly Bulletin at the beginning of each TNNW Newsletter. You may use any font size that you choose, and may include any hyperlinks that you'd like. No graphics can be used. The box size is the same as in the fiery sign at the top of the TNNW blog page that says "Need Attention? Get Read!", which you can find on the ADVERTISEMENTS AND ANNOUNCEMENTS page. The dimensions are: 600 x 120.

The cost of this Option is $90.00 per insertion for Members.

OPTION 2: THREE- LINERS

Three-Liners appear immediately below the Textbox Ads in the Weekly Bulletin at the beginning of the TNNW Newsletter. You can incorporate any links or hyperscript that you would like. You may use a font size not to exceed 12, and each line must not be longer than 600 in length. No graphics can be used.

The cost of this Option is $75.00 dollars per insertion for Members.

OPTION 3: DISPLAY ADS (With Hyperlinks)

Display Ads may incorporate text and graphics (no flash effects or switchable mouseovers, please), and can be up to 1.75" x 1.75" (180 x 180). Regardless of its shape, it must be able to fit within the above square. You may incorporate subscription e-mail fields, and any other data collection components, as well as embedded hyperlinks to any website or landing page. A conforming sample ad [a working model!] within these size parameters (actually 180 x 150) follows (you’ll have to visit the page to see this one, folks!)

Display Ads are placed at the end of the Newsletter and at the bottom of our principal blog, TNNW ARTICLES AND THE RELATIONSHIP CAPITAL TOOLKIT

Your ad will appear in four consecutive issues of the TNNW Newsletter (e.g., four insertions), and will be posted on our principal blog for four weeks.

The cost of this Option is $200.00 for Members.

OPTION 4: SPECIAL INSERTS

Special Inserts are separate bulletins, newsletters or ads which you prepare, and which we email to our entire opt-in subscriber list (via email and RSS) either as an accompaniment to the TNNW Newsletter or as a free-standing blast. Your Insert is also sent out to various online community groups with an aggregate opt-in membership of in excess of >100,000 members. The Special Insert is sent out once. A link to a download of your Special Insert will also be placed in our Newsletter and on our principal blog for a period of four issues. Inserts may contain any suitable content which you believe would be of interest to our Subscribers and Members -- design it as you wish. We will not accept link lists, or pages of affiliated or cooperative advertising. The content must be about you or your organization. You may, of course, freely discuss your products, services and all other pertinent information. You may use flash or any other graphic effects in order to get the attention of the audience, and subscription fields, etc., are perfectly fine. Maximum length is three pages.

The cost of this Option is $200.00 for Members.

OPTION 5: CLASSIFIEDS

Classified ads will be posted at the bottom of each weekly TNNW Newsletter. They are quite inexpensive, but they are very effective. Your ad or announcement can consist of up to 50 words (in total), and will appear in 8-point type. You are permitted to use as many hyperlinks as you choose in order to get your message across.

This is a sample of what 8-point type looks like. When you run your cursor over it, you see that it is hyperlinked. If you'd like, we can hyperlink the entire text of your Classified ad or announcement to your website, blog or special landing page.

The cost of this Option is $18.00 per single insertion for our Members.

Note: If you are interesting in developing your brand and a reputation for stability, repeating the same Classified ad in a number of consecutive issues will absolutely help you. Readers generally 1) take some time before noticing your ad; 2) sometimes take a while to think about your ad before responding to it; and 3) become increasingly impressed with your "stability" if you consistently advertise. If you would like to advertise for 4 or more consecutive insertions, just tell us when you fill out your submission form. After we receive your ad or announcement, we will email you back with a discount schedule. For repeated insertions, the discounts can become very substantial.

The terms of each Affiliate Program are structured individually between the services provider and TNNW.

The fee for evaluating your proposed affiliation program and link is $25.00, which fee is non-refundable. Please be advised that we are selective about every offered Affiliate Program, and that there is can be no guarantee that your Program will be accepted. There is no charge for our placing your link (through a banner, a button, or through a hyperlinked picture. Affililiate Programs are an excellent way to market your products, publications or services to our entire readership.

[IF YOU WOULD LIKE, WE CAN EVEN INCORPORATE SOME MEANINGLESS JAVASCRIPT OR HTML CODE AFTER YOUR AD. WE DO THIS AT NO CHARGE]

Press Release, Publicity and Public Relations: Our suite of services in these areas is unparalleled. Well-crafted releases yield greater responses and Search Engine Results than any other mode of advertising. The CPM (cost per thousand viewers) is lower than for any other form of advertising. Our pricing and abilities are the best available. Make the page a favorite, and harness the indisputable power of print and e-media to send your message, to get attention and to build your personal or company brand. Well-crafted press and news releases are the most cost-effective means of accessing the largest possible audience. You can get your news release out to as many as 25 separate newswire services, representing more than 25,000 publications, both electronic and print.....the potential readership that you can reach is well into the millions.

The ultimate victory is when reporters and journalists start to quote you as an expert in their independent articles! You need to issue releases if you are to establish yourself as an expert in your field, or if you wish to get you brand name OUT THERE. [THIS SERVICE IS ACTIVE]


Custom Text-Messaging Programs: Instant communication via text messaging has become a three-fold breakthrough for working teams, networking groups and advertisers. Text-messaging now plays a key role in communications – ask Barack Obama (he won, didn’t he?) – His campaigning and fundraising activities were carried out through a communications mix of internet marketing and text-messaging. People might leave their laptops at home, but they carry cellular telephones in their pockets. This a powerful tool for tightening up corporate or group communications in real-time, and for accessing the Gen Y market population... in fact, the market where text-messaging is the most highly-utilized and well-received is for consumers between the ages of 12 and 36. [THIS SERVICE IS ACTIVE]

International Agent/ Distributor Services: The networking community is increasingly international.

Build a virtual import, export or global “division” in cyberspace at a miniscule cost, and become global in no time! [THIS SERVICE IS ACTIVE]

Webinar and Broadcast Programs: This suite of resources will become available within the next week, and it will give our Members the capability to produce professional quality webinars, broadcasts, podcasts and top-quality interview programs. Click on the site for a webinar series which we are hosting with ConferTel -- you may well want to sign up and enroll now. [THIS SERVICE IS FULLY ACTIVE]

TNNW Mini-Interviews:


When you write, you can be convincing. But when you personally answer questions about yourself and/ or your organization in a scripted telephone interview (downloadable in an MP3 format!), your appeal is dramatically enhanced. A TNNW MINI-INTERVIEW gives your audience an opportunity to hear your voice. Your listeners will get to actually "feel" your competence, enthusiasm and unique personality. Give yourself the advantage with a TNNW MINI-INTERVIEW. You can embed Mini-Interviews on your websites, blogs, press releases, newsletters and email signatures.




WHY TNNW MINI-INTERVIEWS ARE SO EFFECTIVE

The Human psyche is an insecure creature. It constantly requires the reassurance of a "second opinion" or of an "impartial" third party.

Accordingly, when you speak about yourself to a prospective client or business associate, it carries the automatic liability of being self-serving, and even patronizing of your audience.

In a circumstance where the prospective client or business associate is allowed to "listen in" on a teleconference (formatted as a Q and A interview) between yourself and a professional-sounding interviewer, your presentation stops being a "dog and pony show," and becomes perceived as a critical interview.

No longer viewed as an advertisement or an "advertorial", the TNNW MINI-INTERVIEW is seen as an informative newscast. And
that makes you more credible and persuasive, with an implicit third-party endorsement by the interviewer. [THIS SERVICE IS ACTIVE]


Membership Page: To gain entry to all of these services (and a number of others which are being built right now), you should be a Member. Individual or company Membership is very inexpensive, and might be the best investment that you can make in yourself, your business and your future success. [THIS SERVICE IS ACTIVE]

SUBSCRIBERSHIP AND MEMBERSHIP GROWTH!

At present, TNNW is approaching 6,000 Subscribers (with a secondary, or referred readership of close to ten times this amount). In the past three months, Subscribership has grown in excess of 10%, and at an an accerating rate of increase per month. Our objective for 2009 is to have a minimum of 50,000 Subscribers. Subscribers are upgrading to Membership at a rate of several individuals and companies weekly, and this is usually coincident with the timing of an ad, webinar, press release or some other Members-Only service which they want to use.

REMINDER: My Cousin Murray, who is an incorrigible cheapskate, was amazed to find out that individual Membership costs only $18.00 per year, and Company Membership only $30.00 per year. No matter what Members-only service you ujse, you will recover that money (and then some) on your first transaction with TNNW. Become a Member -- go to the TNNW MEMBERSHIP PAGE now!


NEW, RICHER FORMAT

In the coming weeks, both our Website and our Newsletter are going to be fully re-formatted. They will be easier than ever before to navigate, and will fully integrate a number of new features. Keep watching. We are privileged to have several new columnists to increase our event coverage and our in-depth expertise in a greater number of areas.

* Author Ann Barczay Sloan (abarczay@earthlink.net ), one of our very popular authors has written a book, titled, “HOW TO USE THE PIECES OF A BROKEN HEART – Recipes for Rebirth” which features some poignant and inspiring short writings, with original and beautiful illustrations by artist Penny McManigal, and numerous other inspired artists, each joyously celebrated and showcased. TNNW is in the process of putting together a small syndicate for the self-publishing, promotion, initial printing and distribution of the finished work. I have a strong personal interest in this wonderful project, and if you speak with either Ann or myself, you will too. The book is ideal for the times in which we live…let’s participate and get some royalties out of this before a major publisher steps in for wide scale promotion and distribution of the book, and Ann becomes unapproachable because her inspiring and profound work gets Oprah’s endorsement. Should you have an interest please email me at douglas.castle@yahoo.com, or telephone me toll-free at 888-317-6498 (extension 3).

UPDATED: Ann has received numerous endorsements on her book – these endorsements are from individuals, many of them celebrities, who have achieved significant status of their own (including the likes of Victor Hansen!), and took the time to rave about Ann’s book. To view an updated file of these glowing endorsements in a quick, downloadable .pdf format, just click on:

http://www.mediafire.com/file/rfjjbjwvmm0/ANN SLOAN BOOK ENDORSEMENTS - FULL LIST.doc

TNNW will be self-publishing this book at first, prior to obtaining a promotion and distribution deal with a major publishing company. The capitalization required is anticipated to be approximately $20,000.00, of which we already have obtained indications of interest in excess of $5,000.00 in three weeks’ time. If you would like to participate and generate substantial royalties, please contact me, Douglas Castle at 888.317.6498 (extension 3). No brokers please -- serious principals only.

We are in the process of preparing a series of Mini-Interviews with the author, where she speaks about her book and the inspirations that played a part in its gestation, and where she reads some of her own beautiful words in her own voice. These MP3s will be as therapeutic as they will be informative. When the book is published, their value will be incalculable. They will be available to our Subscribers and Members. Please note that a portion of the proceeds of each sale of these downloads will go toward the publication of the book...if you are a purchaser of record, you will be acknowledged and immortalized in the "In Gratitude" Section of the published work.

Some of the topics to be covered include 1) objection-handling, 2) getting past voicemail, and 3) working with “gatekeepers” who try to stand in the way of your connecting directly with the decision makers whom you need to reach. To get a sneak preview of what Marguerite has in store for you, click on http://www.theresultsource.com/telemarketingoffertnnw.html . We expect a full launch of a joint-campaign within a week.



* Jeff Schomay, of Inspire-Your-Buyer, is an expert at getting recipients to open your emails to them. He uses carefully-selected brief key statements and some attention-grabbing graphic arts effects in order to get your recipients “primed” to focus on your email campaign or newsletter. Jeff will be writing for TNNW, and is offering a special program to our Members. Preview the program, and perhaps take it for a test drive by clicking on http://inpire-your-buyer.com/tnnw_special.html. Think of the incremental increase in your profits if you could increase your email response rate from, say 2% to 15%...that translates into a dramatic increase. Jeff does wonderful work, and gets results. In the words of Sian Lindemann, another TNNW writer, and a vigorous networker in her field, “Jeff got my phone to ring like it’s never rung before.” Everybody wants this. Get your email recipients to pay attention and respond!

OUR READERSHIP IS GROWING EXPONENTIALLY (HERE’S HOW WE’RE DOING IT!

Adam and I recently sent out letters to remind some of our authors, contributors and other important folks mentioned in the TNNW NEWSLETTER to remind them about “paying it forward – creating exponential growth. Following is a re-print of one letter, and of Claudine Halpern’s wonderful response…thank you, Claudine:


Douglas

Thanks for this reminder. I have been sending the articles to my mailing lists. As you predicted it is giving me visibility that I would not have had without it, Claudine.

Dear Colleagues:

Greetings, one and all!

For those of you who contributed articles, I am deeply grateful (not quite as grateful as Adam, who is, arguably, the most grateful person I have ever met). For those of you who were mentioned or discussed in The Bulletin (a .pdf file of The Bulletin is attached for your use) which preceded the TNNW Newsletter, I welcome you to TNNW, and Adam and I look forward to playing a major role in your success.

Following is a copy of the Newsletter in which you were showcased. As a favor, and as a very intelligent business move, please do the following, as has become a TNNW custom:

1. Get rid of this part of the letter (which I have written to you), and just leave the forwarded copy of the Newsletter, which follows. I absolutely forgive you for erasing my words...at least this time;

2. Replace my name in the FROM box above with your very own name and email address. My, but this is so easy! ;

3. Write your own letter (in the place of my erased one) stating something to the effect of:





"Dear Friends:

I was recently discussed in/ I recently became a Member of/ I wrote an article, titled______________________________, which was published in THE NATIONAL NETWORKER, on page _______.

I thought that you might enjoy it. Incidentally, there is a great deal of information of interest in the forwarded copy of the newsletter. You might want to get a free subscription of your own - I would recommend it. Simply click on http://TheNationalNetworkerWeblog.blogspot.com, where you can subscribe for the weekly Newsletter (there's a subscription button), get the free RSS feed, or get both sent to you by email.

Thank you.

Sincerely,


______________________

Your Name



4. Send the letter out to every member of your mailing list, subscriber list and opt-in email list, as well as to friends and acquaintances. By doing this, you increase our circulation -- but, just as importantly, everyone else doing the same thing increases your circulation! If we all do this, we contribute to building a tremendous international marketing platform.


This works for all of us. Thanks for paying it forward. Thanks for being a part of THE NATIONAL NETWORKER.


Faithfully, and with respect,
