Easy Saver Rewards Program Has Many Benefits The Easy Saver Can Take Advantage Of

If you like to save money without effort then you need to learn about the advantages of belonging to an easy saver rewards program. Let’s talk honestly about money for a moment. For most of us the hard times have hit our bank accounts. Unemployment rates are at an all time high and so are foreclosures. Those facts alone indicate the state of our economy; it’s a given that we’ve been forced to focus more on ways to save money. We’re learning to stretch our budgets to new limits, not because we want to, but because we’re forced to find ways to make every dollar count. It’s not surprising that the easy saver rewards programs are such a hit.

This article is intended to provide an overview of basic easysaver rewards programs. And after reading this you are sure to want to join a program so you can reap the rewards of membership; they’re that good.

I’ll start by explaining how the programs are formed and that will give you a good idea of how the rest of the plan works. To begin, a group of manufacturers, business owners, or merchants agree to be a part of the program. This means that each will offer top quality products and or services to members of the program at tremendous savings. When a merchant or manufacturer joins a quality easy saver rewards program there is a certain level of assurance that he will gain new customers. This is because his offers are provided along with others for quality products and services. As the merchant gains new customers they are likely to become loyal because they have discovered the quality provided by the company. At the same time that the merchant is benefitting he is also committing to continue to make offers to members that will provide them with great products at substantial savings.

As the consumer, when you join an easy saver rewards program you immediately become eligible to enjoy the benefits offered by the program – which is a collection of countless products and services provided by the businesses and merchants as described above. You’ll be able to enjoy savings on every day products, luxury items, and even travel related expenses such as car rental and hotel accommodations. While some people join these programs for short term purposes, such as to purchase new household items after a move, most join and remain members for years. It’s really easy to understand why they do. The easysaver rewards seem to get better as time goes on. Merchants are always providing new offers and new manufacturers continue to join the program and contribute.

Waveform Technology Applies to SolarCurrents Utility-Owned Program

Waveform Technology, a leading Metro-Detroit Internet service provider and data center operator, announced today their application to Detroit Edison’s SolarCurrents Utility-Owned Program. Detroit Edison is looking for multiple businesses with suitable rooftops or level ground area to provide space for solar power generation plants. Waveform Technology is one of several applicants to the program.

If selected by Detroit Edison to participate, Waveform Technology will allow Detroit Edison to install a solar power plant on the roof of Waveform’s Troy, Michigan Data Center. Waveform Technology plans to use the SolarCurrents program to increase the amount of renewable energy used to power the Michigan Data Center, one of Metro Detroit’s largest public data centers.

“American businesses are increasingly reliant on Internet services which need data centers: f r o m E-Mail and websites to mobile applications and disaster recovery,” said Waveform representative Noel Montales. “The problem is that we need a tremendous amount of electrical energy to power those services, and more often that not that electricity comes form ‘dirty’ sources, like coal and oil.”

“If Detroit Edison chooses the Michigan Data Center as one of the sites for the SolarCurrents Program then we’ll ensure that a fair portion of our electricity comes f r o m a completely clean and renewable source: the sun,” continued Mr. Montales. “It makes us greener, but more importantly, it makes the IT departments of our clients a whole lot greener!”

SolarCurrents is one of the largest distributed programs in the country, and Detroit Edison will generate 15 megawatts of renewable electricity through the Utility-Owned portion. More information about the SolarCurrents program is available at http://www.dteenergy.com/solar.

Waveform Technology Installs Metro Ethernet Service for Macomb County

Waveform Technology, a leading Metro Detroit area commercial data center operator and Internet service provider, is now supplying fiber optic Internet access to Macomb County. The new connection serves both Macomb’s 2,500 County Employees and MACnet, the county’s own private network, by providing redundancy to the current Internet circuit.

Macomb County is among the first customers to connect to a recently constructed expansion of Waveform Technology’s southeast Michigan fiber optic network.

Macomb County chose Waveform Technology for numerous reasons, but primarily because Waveform’s metropolitan fiber optic network provides complete path redundancy from the county’s primary Internet connection. “Owning our own network allowed us to meet the specific route stipulations that Macomb Country required,” said Waveform Technology representative Noel Montales. “It provides us more flexibility than
other ISPs that are just reselling local phone company assets.”

Price was also an important consideration, and Waveform’s independent network allows for Internet connections, and other metropolitan data services, for a fraction of the cost that other carriers charge.

Waveform Technology provisioned a 100Mbps fiber optic Metro Ethernet circuit for Macomb County. Metro Ethernet was chosen for its versatility and simplicity of design.

The India Project Announces to Investors Signs of Early Profit

The India Project, a Phoenix rising from the ashes of former failures of creators, Scott R. Asher and Mark Pringle, demonstrates a new model for internet profitability. Rather than attempting to make any single website, “the next big thing,” it is creating a network of one hundred monetized and SEO optimized niche websites. The corporation’s prospectus calls for exploiting the talents of computer programmers in India to optimize the network of one hundred websites within thirty days under the direct supervision of computer programmer and website developer, Scott R. Asher in India.

According to Asher, the India Project also demonstrates the power of social networking. Remarkably, Asher and Pringle have actually never met. Their relationship was founded online with the single burning desire to make money. Pringle, a former client of Asher stated, “[w]hen Scott first told me of his idea to create a massive network of sites using the talents of Indian computer programmers, I could see the enormous potential of this idea. Having floundered in real estate, foreclosing on my thirty rental properties and finding the inside of a bankruptcy courtroom, I was poised and ready to act on a ‘big idea.’” According to Asher, “the idea came to me during my darkest hour. I had been cast as a character in a Las Vegas episode of the program ‘Cops,” wrongly accused of stealing mail from my own apartment complex. While defending myself against these ridiculous claims, it occurred to me that my energy was being wasted within the legal system. Once I turned my focus back to my entrepreneurial interests on the internet, the idea of the India Project suddenly became clear. I’ve had many big ideas over the years and meeting Mark online and feeling his enthusiasm was crucial to actually implementing the idea.”

Internet Reputation Management Has Helped Over 100 Companies Repair Their Online Presence

Internet Reputation Management, the gold standard for protective and defensive measures has now successfully completed over 100 projects, each designed to help a company control the way it’s perceived online. By working with a client to build a growing network of carefully designed favorable content, search engine results begin to be dominated by the “good” results, the key to successful reputation management. Online is the only game in town for many companies (and individuals), with Google or MSN results making or breaking the way in which prospective customers see them.

April, 2010 – After passing the milestone of successfully helping 100 customers repair their online reputation, California based Internet Reputation Management has proven itself the gold standard in this increasingly important field. In a world where a single dissatisfied customer or even a kid out to have some fun at someone else’s expense can post derogatory material on web sites, social media outlets and product review boards that becomes the first thing potential customers see when searching on Google, reputation management online is a critical service.

SERM, a common term used to describe Internet reputation management (the service, not the company) can take several different forms, depending on the challenge facing the client. Prophylactic or protective reputation management online involves a wide range of techniques such as keyword research, SEO (Search Engine Optimization) copywriting, image and video SEO, social media optimization and consumer review management. The goal in this case is to help the company dominate the top listings for key consumer level web tools like Google, Yelp, and Google Maps, as well as providing a dominating presence in blogs, social media sites and among PR firms. This form of Internet marketing ensures that a company is the first one that prospective customers find online, that the impression they get from what they see about the company is positive and that the content is natural looking and not obviously part of a coordinated effort.

Smart Traffic Review and Recommend Search Engine Reputation Management Strategies to Clients

In response to client concerns, Smart Traffic recommend the most effective SERM strategies to combat libellous online content.

Smart Traffic offer SERM advice and strategies in order to help clients protect themselves from people with malicious intent who intend to damage the reputation of their business.

Andy Birt Managing Director of Smart Traffic says, ‘We have introduced this SERM advisory service in response to client concerns, we share their opinion that why should one or more disgruntled people ruin a hard earned reputation? Much of this malicious content is written anonymously and could be uploaded by anyone from disgruntled ex employees to competitors.’

Andy goes onto say that, ‘A good reputation in the business world can take years to build and although the internet has opened up a whole new world of opportunity for businesses and the consumer alike it is open to abuse.’

SERM or Online Reputation Management (ORM) can be achieved through effective SEO and SMO and maintained through monitoring. Reputation damaging content can come from a variety of sources including but not limited to: Forums, Blogs, Consumer Sites and perhaps even sites associated with class action litigation or similar.

The SERM recommendations from Smart Traffic can usually be implemented as part of an
aggressive SEO strategy and although businesses can perform some SERM independently it is a time consuming and laborious process and generally only effective in the short term.

Established in 2006 Smart traffic have become one of the UK’s leading SEO Companies and count a number of household names as clients.

Study by Clickbooth Will Help Businesses Better Target Women Ages 35 to 55

Marketing to women ages 35 to 55 can prove more difficult than marketing to other groups of online shoppers, as they are less willing to part with their money on a whim. Affiliate program network Clickbooth wants to help its clients reach more members of this valuable demographic, the largest online today. Part one of its recent study, “An Inside Look at Marketing to Women Ages 35 to 55,” addresses the makeup of this group and offers clients of Clickbooth’s CPA affiliate network tips on how to better reach them.

Study author Sara Anderson states that affiliate program network campaigns aimed at this demographic should be broken into smaller units that target specific groups, such as:

Single Mothers – There are approximately 10.4 million women in this group. They value their children, their time, and their appearance, making and saving their money, and finding a life partner. These factors should be considered when creating a CPA affiliate network campaign for them.

Stay at Home Mothers – They make up 25 percent of the married woman demographic, and they value highest meeting the needs of their family. When marketing to this group, Anderson suggests addressing the entire family. With this group, an affiliate program network campaign should include inspiring stories of other women in similar situations, who have successfully cared for their families using the campaign’s products or services.

Working Mothers – These educated consumers do not have time for endless research before making a purchase. Because of this, a CPA affiliate network campaign targeting this group should stress a product or service’s time and money saving features.

Married Women with No Children – Approximately four million women fall into this group. They value their freedom and independence, so when targeting an affiliate program network campaign toward this group, consider playing off what they value most: making and saving money, their spouse, having fun and meeting their health and beauty needs.

Single Women with No Children – They are a smaller portion of this demographic, but no less valuable. As they are more likely to be interested in finding a life partner, consider a CPA affiliate network campaign that targets a product or service’s ability to improve their image or help them meet someone special.

Anderson stresses the importance of the language used in affiliate program network campaigns that aimed toward this demographic. She suggest that clients “speak in a language that relates to her, appeals to her caring nature, shows concern for her time, and complements (not complicates) her life. The last thing she needs is a process that takes more of her time – simplicity is key.”

Bigmouthmedia senior retail strategist Finlay Clark will tell an invited audience of senior executives at the 2nd Annual bigmouthmedia Retail Summit this month that UK retailers are set to face fresh challenges as ecommerce consumer habits keep evolving rapidly. According to Clark, retailers face multiple opportunities and challenges posed by a shifting approach to the market, a raft of new technological developments and the entry of new players from overseas will have a major impact upon the sector in the coming months.

Online Retailers Must Prepare To Meet The Challenge Of The Most Competitive Market Conditions The Sector Has Ever Faced

“With increased competition coming from various angles, retailers are about to face some of the biggest challenges in their history. Big overseas competitors are coming to the UK knowing consumers are sophisticated online shoppers, and the likes of Best Buy will be aiming to make its mark on an increasingly competitive consumer electronics market in 2010. Similarly, in fashion we have seen a shift with the likes of Ebay become clothes shopping destinations in their own right, whilst Amazon has allowed big high street brands to retail on their own platform,” said Clark.

“Nowadays independent fashion designers are launching exclusive collections on Ebay – far removed from the second hand and grey market sales that they made their name on – and in many ways they’re now a direct competitor to the retailers themselves.”

Clark will be joined by a panel of industry-leading online retail experts speaking on a range of themes including current consumer trends, cross channel shopping habits, the shape of UK internet advertising and the impact of social technologies upon web retailing.

Taking the podium at the Bigmouthmedia Retail Summit will be Benjamin Ensor, VP research director at Forrester Research, Google Retail Industry Leader Peter Fitzgerald and Tony Stockil, CEO of Javelin Group. Hitwise research director Robin Goad and Enders Analysis Founder Claire Enders will also join Clark on the rostrum.

In a presentation designed to identify the 10 key events set to hit Ecommerce over the course of the next two years, Clark will also highlight the challenge presented by the growth of online applications. Although a relatively new phenomenon, he predicts that retailers will be forced to place increasing focus upon keeping up with rapidly developing new marketing technologies.

“Some of the best content in the future will be delivered through applications like those found in Apple’s iPhone Apps Store. Retailers are only beginning to get to grips with the value of applications at the moment, and ensuring that theirs stands out and can be found easily by consumers will be a crucial challenge over the next few years,” said Clark.

“We’ll also see a lot more made of mobile marketing, which is only just beginning to make an impact upon retail, and expect there to be much greater correlation with the way retailers are able to market to consumers based on location-aware technology. Operators like Debenhams are already experimenting with such systems, but we are likely to see rapid developments in the field over the next 24 months.”

The bigmouthmedia Retail Summit takes place in London on March 25th and is a free event aimed at senior marketing and ecommerce executives. Places are limited, but those wishing to attend can register at http://www.bigmouthmedia.com/signup for an invitation.
