The Wordless Wednesday post I shared yesterday was the logo for Unilever. If you missed the image, click here to view it.

Unilever has products like Country Crock butter, Breyers, Lipton tea, Ragu sauce, Degree deodorant, Clear shampoo, Dove soap, and many more. These are products we use on a regular basis in our homes and while some are low cost, others are not.

If you’ve ever thought about ways to save money, couponing is one option to consider. Unilever puts out coupons for these types of products all the time. I’m don’t know this for sure, but I have a feeling the reason they do this is to help people out when it comes to purchasing the products they offer. We’ve talked many times about ways to save your family money so you can continue on with your current lifestyle and Unilever makes it a little easier to save the money you need.

Unilever takes great pride in the products they create and they always have the buyer in mind. They know the economy isn’t the greatest right now and so they’re doing their part to help you out where they can. They do this by offering coupons to help the buyer. In my mind, that’s a great thing and that’s why I continue to purchase their products.

Tell Me Thursday – April 18 http://wahm-articles.com/blog/2013/04/tell-me-thursday-april-18/ http://wahm-articles.com/blog/2013/04/tell-me-thursday-april-18/#comments Thu, 18 Apr 2013 16:15:49 +0000 corriepetersen http://wahm-articles.com/blog/?p=6537

The Wordless Wednesday post I shared yesterday was the design my youngest son Josh created for a contest he’s participating in. If you missed the image, click here to view it.

Josh participated in the Wyoming Meth Project earlier this month. This project is designed to help children stay away from meth and the creations are displayed on a website to be viewed by children everywhere. Meth is a problem all over the world and when our children take a stand they have a chance to help others to stay away from it or get help.

There are many drawings on the site, but Josh’s video is the best (and I’m not just saying that because I’m his mom :) ). Josh created a sign that says Meth don’t do it and then he created an Easter egg that says the same thing. In his video he shares both of these with you and you can see these when you click here.

Josh would appreciate your vote for his design. You can vote through Facebook when you click here. You have the ability to vote once every 24 hours between now and April 25th.

Josh, your dad and I are so proud of you and we’re blessed to have you as a son. We’re proud that you chose to participate in this project to help raise awareness about Meth and that it’s not the right thing to do. Keep it up buddy!

The Wordless Wednesday post I shared yesterday was for Aweber. This is a tool you can use to grow your business. If you missed the image, click here to view it.

Aweber is a program you can use for many things, but one of the most common things is newsletters. Newsletters are a great way to keep your business in front of your market. They’re sent via email and they’re one of the easiest things to create. They don’t have to be long and full of information. They can be short and sweet as long as you get to the point quickly.

The great thing about Aweber is it’s easy to use. You don’t have to know html or css to use it. You can add templates to your newsletters to make them bright and cheerful and stand out above everyone else. You can change the template with ease or use the same one each time so it’s easy for people to know they’re from you each time.

Aweber also offers autoresponders which is another great way to grow your business. They’re easy to set up and can be as long or as short as you want. Using autoresponders is a good way to gather names and email addresses. You can use them to give away free information, e-courses, or anything else you choose.

If you don’t have a newsletter program or you’re considering autoresponders for your business, you need to consider using Aweber for your needs. The price is reasonable, customer service is good, and the program is easy to use.

Tell Me Thursday – February 21 http://wahm-articles.com/blog/2013/02/tell-me-thursday-february-21/ http://wahm-articles.com/blog/2013/02/tell-me-thursday-february-21/#comments Thu, 21 Feb 2013 15:30:43 +0000 corriepetersen http://wahm-articles.com/blog/?p=6292

The Wordless Wednesday post I shared yesterday was for WordPress. This is a tool you can use to build free or paid websites or blogs. If you missed the image click here to view it.

Creating a blog or a website for your business is a must due to the technology people are using today. Landline phones in the home are becoming obsolete with the cost of cell phones and the plans they offer. With that said, more and more people are turning to the internet to find what they’re looking for and if you’re not there, they won’t know you’re in business.

WordPress gives you the ability to create a professional site on your own or with the help of a Virtual Assistant or web designer and the cost will be minimal. WordPress is so easy to use that you don’t even need html or any type of code knowledge to be able to create a website or blog to meet your needs. There are many templates you can add to your website or blog to make it look like you and you can add plugins and widgets to make your website function better, easier, and more efficient.

If you’re in need of a website or blog for your business, but aren’t sure which direction to go, you need to consider using WordPress. This blog uses a paid version of WordPress and my VA website runs on WordPress as well. If you have any questions about using WordPress, leave a comment below and I’ll answer your questions and help you take the steps you need to get your website or blog up and running.

Tell Me Thursday – January 10, 2013 http://wahm-articles.com/blog/2013/01/tell-me-thursday-%e2%80%93-january-10-2013/ http://wahm-articles.com/blog/2013/01/tell-me-thursday-%e2%80%93-january-10-2013/#comments Thu, 10 Jan 2013 15:30:48 +0000 corriepetersen http://wahm-articles.com/blog/?p=6158

The Wordless Wednesday post I shared yesterday was for Google Adwords. This is a tool you can use to grow your business through advertising. If you missed the image, click here to view it.

Advertising your business is one of the best ways you can grow your business. Yes, it is possible to use word of mouth and grow, but it’s much more difficult. With the internet and Google, advertising your business is much easier and it’s not as expensive as you may think.

If you’ve ever used Google to do an internet search, you’ve seen the paid ads other businesses place. These are the ads at the top of your screen when the search results come up. They’re gray in color and are usually the first three options that come up. These ads will always appear at the top and while they will change based on the businesses that use these keywords, the ads themselves may be different each time.

You’ll need a Google account to set up the Adwords and you pay a certain amount of money for each click. The amount you pay is based on the popularity of the keyword. For example, the keyword phrase Work at Home Mom is going to be more expensive than the keyphrase Work at Home Parents. The only way to find out what the cost per click will be is to set up an account and start putting the words in. The good thing about it is you have control over the daily, weekly, and monthly amounts you spend, so you won’t go over your spending limit.

Google is one of the top search engines and it’s the best place to advertise your business. When you use Google Adwords for your business, you’ll have the ability to easily put your business in front of your market when they need you the most. If you’re ready to start your New Year off with an increase in your business, Google Adwords is an option to consider.

Tell me Thursday – September 20 http://wahm-articles.com/blog/2012/09/tell-me-thursday-%e2%80%93-september-20/ http://wahm-articles.com/blog/2012/09/tell-me-thursday-%e2%80%93-september-20/#comments Thu, 20 Sep 2012 14:30:41 +0000 corriepetersen http://wahm-articles.com/blog/?p=5918

The Wordless Wednesday post I shared yesterday was for Craigslist. This site is a place where you can list things for sale or things you’re looking for whether it’s for personal or business. If you missed the image, click here to view it.

Several years ago most people thought Craigslist was for personal use only. You could use it to sell your personal belongings you didn’t want any more or you could find things you were looking to purchase. It was the perfect way to make a little money or purchase what you needed at a much lower price than you could get if you bought it at a store.

Things have changed a little with Craigslist and now more and more businesses are using it to grow. You’ll see businesses post their job offers, promote what they offer, and sell what they don’t need in their business. Craigslist is growing and as it does, business owners are taking advantage of it and why not? If the people within your market are using Craigslist to find what they need, why wouldn’t you want to put your business out there for them to see?

Marketing is one the most important things you need when you’re a business owner and when you use the tools in front of you, you’ll begin to see the growth you’re expecting. Don’t lose out on a marketing tool, like Craigslist, because you don’t think it’s a good idea. Placing ads and job offers on Craigslist will help you make your business what you envision it to be.

Tell me Thursday – August 30 http://wahm-articles.com/blog/2012/08/tell-me-thursday-%e2%80%93-august-29/ http://wahm-articles.com/blog/2012/08/tell-me-thursday-%e2%80%93-august-29/#comments Thu, 30 Aug 2012 14:30:05 +0000 corriepetersen http://wahm-articles.com/blog/?p=5826

The Wordless Wednesday post I shared yesterday was for the WAHM-Articles directory. This site is a great way to have your articles visible to work at home moms and others. If you missed the picture, click here to view it.

Marketing your business is very important and if you don’t do it regularly your business will not grow and that defeats the purpose of it. You must do multiple things so you reach a larger part of your market and you must do each thing regularly so you’re visible when they’re looking.

While social media posts, blog comments, and blogging are an important part of marketing your business, article marketing is one of the best forms you can use. Article marketing gives you the ability to show your market you’re an expert in your field and they can trust you.

WAHM-Articles is a directory specifically geared to women. They only accept articles written by women and the market is also women. You’ll find a few articles written by men, but that was during a time when they considered allowing everyone to submit articles. That changed when they decided WAHM-Articles needed to be a place where women could submit their writing and not have to worry about what men thought.

If you’re a women and you either write articles or are looking for new content for your website or blog, make sure you click here to visit the directory and to see what it’s all about. Remember you can submit your articles as long as you’re a woman and your articles are geared toward women.

The Wordless Wednesday post I shared yesterday was for the social networking site, YouTube. This site is a good way to listen to what other business owners have to say about their business and you have the ability to learn things from others. If you missed the picture, click here to view it.

YouTube is a site that’s used for a lot of different things. People use it to learn things, listen to music, and many other things. You can use it to introduce people to your business or you can use it to teacher others how to do something.

There are many things you can record and add to YouTube that will benefit your business, but the first thing you need to do when you decide to use YouTube is create an account. Having a profile is a great way to network with others and promote your business.

The first thing you need to do is record an introduction video for your site. Then you can record any type of video that would be beneficial to both you and your market. It’s important to add these videos to your website and share them on the other social networking sites we’ve discussed this last month.

If you haven’t set up a profile on YouTube and if you haven’t recorded your first message, you need to do it. You’ll see the benefits when you continue to record messages and market them on social networking sites. Click here to join today.
