Tell the list broker about yourself, what you″re trying to sell, how much you″re asking for it, and your-long range plans. Almost all of them will want to see a sample of your mailing piece, and more often than not, a sample of your product as well. Don”t be afraid to talk to these people–they”re in business to help you, and if they ’steer you onto’ a list that doesn”t make money for you, they figure you″ll not buy from them again, so it”s to their benefit to see that you get the ‘right’ list for your mailing piece and offer. Most of them are will critique your mailing piece and offer, making suggestions for improvements when appropriate, and in general, act as a consultant to see that you realize a profit through their services.

Just compare a ‘temp help’ in a big company with an independent home-business owner
Saturday, July 18th, 2009Just compare a ‘temp help’ in a big company with an independent home-business owner. If a temporary is hired for 40 hours per week, he or she may not give the customer-company 40 hours in production. Part of those 40 hours is spent on orientation, gathering office supplies, getting the computer turned on and paper loaded, etc.) This breaks down the actual time spent working and producing for the company to about 25 hours, with 15 hours lost per week through no fault of your (or their) own.
