Let’s face it, advertising is an expense; but also an investment, as the main goal is to get your business or product noticed, bring you repeat customers and create long-lasting relationships.

When one has an online business, it’s essential to that business to get the most out of their online advertising dollars…you wouldn’t want anything less.  You need an agency that has your advertising dollars interest at heart – one that is committed to your investment.

When searching for an Advertising Agency, you will want to know what you need – first; and then look for an agency that:

  • Can offer examples of their work…you need to know their experience they bring to the table
  • Can tell you their capabilities which should be rather extensive in nature
  • Offers creative ways to get attention to your business
  • Track the success of your campaigns minute-to-minute and day-to-day
  • One that is capable of using old media methods along with new media methods.  This is important as although we have television, radio, and newspapers available for advertising medias…many people access these medias online. 
  • An agency who is willing to develop a different strategy should one not be working for your campaign
  • One that knows about Analytics and SEO (search engine optimization)
  • Ask to see what marketing strategies they are working on with other businesses   

Working with a good, experienced advertising agency can make your investment well worth while.  Making an informed decision when you hire an ad agency is extremely important, as your partnership with the ad agency has to be a true partnership.

This post brought to you by Zenni Optical. All opinions are 100% mine.

 

As a wearer of contact lenses and eyeglasses, I know how expensive these can be at traditional eye care facilities.  I have learned I can cut the cost of these expenses by ordering them online and you can too.  A website I’ve discovered is Zenni Optical.  Zenni Optical was recently mentioned in Time magazine.  This website offers eyeglasses made from the latest modern materials and shipped directly to you.  Their prices are phenomenal.  One of the reasons they can offer such great prices is because they pay no middlemen; and another reason, is they keep their advertising costs down to a bare minimum.  By doing this, they can pass their savings on to you.  
 
Their site carries eyeglasses for women, men and children.  There’s a “Zenni Frame Fit” widget which allows you to pick the shape of your face and “try on” the frames.  One can get a complete pair of eyeglasses for as low $6.95…that’s a deal.  The cost of frames alone at a local major retailer begins at $9.99.  It’s very easy to order from them.  All you need is your Rx prescription. 
 
If you are one of those people who love to own several pair of glasses this would be a great site for you.  To see what others say about their product, go to their blog.  Even a military man serving in Afghanistan is a satisfied customer. 
 
Visit Zenni Optical and take a look for yourself at their great prices!  Then picture what you could do with the savings you’d gain by ordering from them….potentially hundreds!

As a mother of a disabled son, I had to “learn” how to shave him. At first, I was petrified to shave him, as I was afraid he would fight me and I would end up cutting him.  Luckily though, I had an LNA that said she would be willing to do it, so I jumped at the offer!

My to my amazement, my son got used to being shaved faster than I thought he would.  Fabulous!  Now I had another problem to solve. Shaving him was leaving his face red raw with a pimply rash.  Not knowing what the issue was, and certainly not knowing a thing about men’s shaving products, I started with changing the shaving cream being used.  Well…that didn’t work.  So I then purchased new razors which seemed to help a bit, but still his face had somewhat of a rash.  So I was like…now what?  There are just so many shaving products for men on the market I had no clue what to do next. That’s when I decided to pole other men.

This is what I learned:

  • Several didn’t like shaving, and didn’t, as it was too much of a bother…(ah…that’s why so many beards on the faces of men I knew…but not an option for my son…I like clean shaven faces)
  • Some despise electric razors…claiming that they pull the hair on their face…(okay, well I won’t waste my money on an electric razor…what if I got one that did the same?  I surely wasn’t gonna purchase several.)
  • Some liked women’s razors better (picture that!)
  • Some liked triple blades, over single or twin blades…(I tried them all…still there was a rash)
  • Some had to use an after shave…this didn’t work…(it seemed to make the rash worse)
  • Some had to use products for sensitive skin only…(this helped quite a bit when I used razors and shaving cream for sensitive skin combined, but didn’t work 100%)

What works for the man in your life?  I’d love to see no rash at all on my son’s face :-).
