On repparttar higher end of repparttar 104579 product chain, if they like to garden then they probably read about gardening or belong to a gardening group. Maybe they read about gardening online.

Sliding up even further up repparttar 104580 chain, they're probably going to do something with repparttar 104581 things they grow. Do they like to grow herbs vegetables? Do they like to cook? What do they use to cook? Do they collect recipes about cooking with home-grown fruits or veggies?

** Now where? ** Once you've found a list of potential companies, use a service like InfoSeek or Switchboard to find companies in your area. Call them up and ask for repparttar 104582 owner. Don't spend your time trying to force them, just make it simple:

"I'm a local business that sells gardening supplies and am looking to ally with other local, related businesses and am conducting a quick survey."

* What kind of alliances have you formed with other businesses in repparttar 104583 past?

* How strong were those alliances?

* Have you ever been in a joint venture?

* Given that (how your business relates to theirs) do you think that you customers might be interested in gardening supplies?

* Would you object to me passing interested customers your way?

* If I could find a way to make this mutually beneficial, would there be any reason why you couldn't work with me?

* What kind of alliance would you like? (Brainstorm on this)

Conclusion: Of course these lists are far from complete. I just hope I've provided enough thought fodder to get your cogs crankin'. Business partnerships can be an extremely profitable win-win situation for both of you. You're helping others while making money. And isn't that what business is all about?

month. So it’s back to repparttar

drawing board. Let’s try a safe list. Putting our e-mail advertisement in front of 700 people at once should bring in at least a good couple of paying members or a couple of sales right? WRONG. Now we have an e-mail box full of noloop e-mails that we are just deleting at once because there are so many to read! If we are doing this then so are repparttar 104578

rest, so therefore our e-mails are not getting read. Ok so maybe repparttar 104579

free advertising route isn’t repparttar 104580

way to go to get repparttar 104581

quick response that we are looking for. Hmmm here it says that we can send our promotion to over 50,000 people for as little as $15.00. Sounds like a good deal, so let’s try that. Now we learn what FFA pages are. Geez! Our e-mail inbox is flooded again with different types of e-mails that appear to be coming from some type of FFA pages. These are harder to determine which ones can be deleted since they came from many different types of e-mail addresses. So we have to handpick through these to make sure we are not deleting something important. And don’t you get so frustrated and angry when you find those that trick you into opening there e-mails with repparttar 104582

tricky subject lines like, “Your payment has been processed” and then when you open repparttar 104583

e-mail it’s just another marketer trying to sell you something? I mean give me a break! Who wants to do business with a sneaky little twerp that hides repparttar 104584

truth from you? Ok so we chalk our $15.00 up on a loss. We are NOT I repeat NOT giving up on this! There HAS to be a way to get our product in front of repparttar 104585

people that count. I know that others are doing it and so can I. I guess I am going to have to break down and pay for something. Here is an ad for a Bulk opt in mailing list of 300,000 spam free people for $70.00. They say that you pay for what you get, so let’s see if that old scenario holds any truth to it. We are anxiously waiting for repparttar 104586

e-mails to start pouring in. I myself am personally afflicted with e-mail anxiety and can not wait to find a cure! Stay tuned for future updates on e-mail anxiety.
