Are You Oblivious to the Gold Around You?

What could be your easiest and most profitable promotion may be lying there, right under your nose.

It seems that nearly every small business owner I talk to is constantly looking for new customers. Despite the fact that more emphasis should be put on your existing clients than finding new, there is a formula you can follow to attract more than enough new ones.

First, open your eyes! As much as I personally dislike all the negativity in most newspapers, there are hundreds of potential story ideas and promotional themes you could use.

What does it take?

VERY LITTLE!

Here are some headlines from my local paper today:

Watch Olympic Hockey Canada Vs Germany Online Live Streaming

It is well know that hockey is one of the most watched events at the Winter Olympics. This year is no different. Millions of people will tune in to WorldwideTVonPC.com to watch the game between Canada and Germany to see who will play Russia in the Quarter Finals. The loser will go home without a medal, and without their dignity.

Many people were shocked when they saw that Team USA beat Team Canada in the preliminary round at the 2010 Vancouver Olympic Games. USA goaltender Ryan Miller gave a steady performance and shut down the Canadians. The Canadian goaltender Martin Brodeur wasn’t as successful against the Americans and let in 4 goals, a few of which were questionable.  Team Canada has one last chance to reclaim it’s pride in hometown Vancouver as they play Team Germany, who also have a few Nhlers on their roster.

Northwest Airlines Flight 253

Incident

Getting on Flight 253

On Christmas Eve, December 24, 2009, Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, a 23-year-old Nigerian, arrived at Murtala Muhammed Airport in Lagos, Nigeria. Eight days earlier at the KLM Royal Dutch Airlines office in Accra, Ghana, he had paid ,831 in cash for his Lagos-Amsterdam-Detroit round-trip ticket with a January 8, 2010, return date. Abdulmutallab left Lagos on Christmas Eve at 11:00 p.m. aboard KLM Flight 588, a Boeing 777 bound for Schiphol Airport in Amsterdam.

A couple, Kurt and Lori Haskell, stated that, while waiting at the Amsterdam airport to board Flight 253, they saw the man whom they later learned was Abdulmutallab along with a well-dressed man who was assisting him approach the ticket agent. The other man appeared to be around 50 years old, of Indian descent and was

Low Mortgage Rates Are Good News for Resale and New Home Market

Mortgage rates are at historic lows and are predicted to stay low for some time to come. The end result is good news for the real estate market, in both resale and new homes. Recent reports outline just how good the news has been:

The Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC) is predicting that new home construction will increase in the latter half of 2009 and into 2010. They are expecting housing starts to reach 141,900 units in 2009 and improve to about 150,000 in 2010. These numbers are still far off the mark of 200,000 or more that the market has reached every year since 2002, but they are a clear sign that the new home market is regaining strength. Most experts predict that we are not likely to see housing starts in the 200,000 range again, since there is less demand. As the market stabilizes, 170,000 starts per year will probably become the new norm. Even the luxury market is bouncing back. The Globe & Mail recently reported on the Vancouver market,

Look out for Detroit, Ottawa in Stanley Cup Playoffs

History is on the side of the Red Wings, about 4-1 in a consensus of several sportsbooks odds-makers. Of 21 trips to the finals, the team has carried home the cup 10 times. The Senators, 5-1, have captured the cup only once: 1926-27.

Detroit posted the NHL’s best record, 58-16, successfully blending an aging core of players and a stellar group of youngsters. But the Red Wings must dispose of early round foes quickly so they can survive a possible grueling seven-game war in the finals.

Leader Steve Yzerman is playing like he did when the team won back-to-back cups starting in 1996-97.

His 1,300th career point in the playoffs boosted him to second all-time on the team. Experiencing his first championship, the center was third in overall playoff points. The following year, the longtime Red Wings captain, 40, led playoff scoring with 24 points.
