go (11)
There is a BIG shift happening in America today. Attention is being paid to the true wealth of our inner cities. Hospitals, universities, community colleges and other "anchor" institutions in our U.S. cities are looking to "local" markets for their services and supplies.
It's all part of that "go local" movement and it is also about building up our domestic economy.
Fresh Urban Marketing is a service organization specifically for small businesses in urban centers and regional towns. We know that our cities are filled with big “potential” from major institutional community anchors like universities and hospitals, to revitalized manufacturing sectors and retail centers that all contribute to diverse and sustainable communities for YOUR business.
It’s important for small businesses to know what’s possible and changing in our cities today. That knowledge can translate into increased sales and sustainability.
We help small businesses by providing:
- Timely news and marketing information to keep small urban and suburban businesses informed and prepared.
- Expert media relations and promotional services to get your story and business in front of your target market.
- Copywriting and website creation services to help market small businesses to local and distant customers in the most cost effective and profitable way possible today.

Throughout our lives, we all have moments, seasons, where we experience life at it's best and it's worst. But what do you do with those moments? Do you say, "I'll never do that again". Maybe something like, "Now I know what not to do", or how about, "What did I learn from all this"? Every moment is a lesson and it all depends on how you perceive it and what you do with it.
We can very easily make our bad experience worse when we reflect on it as such. But what about the flip side, what did you learn from this experience? How can my life be better because of what I've gone through? Here's how...
Learn from it and move on!
No need to dwell on the negative, you'll just keep yourself stuck in the same mindset, without even realizing it. And then everything around you will start to take on the same negative thought process. Your job, your relationships, your mood, your happiness, everything will start to take a downward turn. And the reality is that you have allowed it to get to this point because you just could not let it go. Your thoughts kept the cycle going.
At this moment, make a choice. A choice to be better, a choice to not allow this to destroy you, a choice to release the negative and move on. Start to feel better immediately. Remember all the wonderful people and great things in your life that you love and surround yourself with greatness. If yours is a story you feel comfortable in sharing, then do that. There is enormous gratitude in knowing that you have helped someone because of your own testimony. Feel good again and don't let this experience deprive you of another minute of your very precious, very beautiful life.
Here's the formula:
Learn From It
Make A Choice
Release It
Move On
Feel Good Now
With Love and Gratitude,

Letting Go of Old Power to Gain New Freedom
Rickey of Juniques Marketing and Multi Cultural Connections, share his insight on personal growth.
He describes how a person can be really good in a particular area of life or have a skill highly developed and it becomes their power. This power is what they use and hold on to, always.
The person may good at leadership, persuasion, arguing,loving,passiveness, etc. They use their power
constantly.
Now to experience NEW Freedom, they have to learn to let go of that power so that a new freedom
can be introduced into their life. How?
When the opportunity present itself to use their old power, they do not.
They do not take the lead, agrue, persuade,passive, follow, etc. Just for that moment.
Here is what they discover.
That they may have other powers that have not be utilized. That the situation was not as severe as they thought.
That someone else discovered they had unused power and "stepped" forward.
That someone had discovered their
new freedom and the opportunity to use it, was presented.
It like holding on to something that secures. Say you are sitting in a "four legged chair" and you are "rocking" in it.
There is a table you use to grab, just as the chair starts falling back and you know it will not "rock" forward.
You know if you do not grab that table, you will fall.
You know the fall will be "nothing nice". You get real good at grabbing that table.
Lets say the table is your power. Let say falling is the start of process of letting go. Lets say you let go!!!
That is the most emotionally unsettlling moment in your life. Because you do not have your power.
So you fall to the floor and you experience no major damage! You look around you are ok, You get up and realize you do not need
the table. You have new freedoms. You can sit there, get up, walk around, crawl, stand up, etc.
You realize now you can " Let go of old power and Gain new freedom!":
You have new freedoms. Now the cool part of gaining new freedoms is, it is a continual cycle.
New Freedoms will become Old Powers.
Now you know how to move old powers to new freedoms and you can appreciate the cycling instead being held by old powers.
The sad news about keeping old powers is YOU WILL NOT GROW, in whatever area of life, you want to grow., you let the old power remain "in charge".
Is this a easy process? NO. For it is a process. You have take "steps" to let go of old power and you have to trust the process.
I say do this and enjoy rewards of growing!!!
Affiliate marketing has its ups and downs. It could be draining if you are not armed with updated information and the technical how-tos. But this article's sole objective is to reach out to you and not to badmouth affiliate marketing.
Here are the following reasons on why web marketers go gaga over affiliate marketing as a form of Internet advertisement.
1. Low cost
Many are scared to go on a home based business because of the capital required. In affiliate marketing, you don't have to spend much to start raking in moolah.
2. Inventories not included
Product management fuss could be very stressing. An inventory is not asked to be maintained. The merchant does the maintenance required.
3. Unlimited income through leverage
When you have a paid job, your monthly income mainly relies on whether you go to work or not. With affiliate marketing, your affiliates could all just lead traffic to your site without having to lift a finger after providing them your ad copy and links. Though not every web marketer earns limitless, it still is a fact that all the necessary matters for the advertiser or Internet marketer are all there to be successful.
4. Go worldwide
With affiliate marketing, you are dealing with a global market place. All you have to do is choose a niche product and prepare all the necessary tools for your affiliates to lead traffic from just about anywhere to your website.
5. Low risk
The very main reason for Internet marketer's enthusiasm with affiliate marketing is its having a low risk factor. Especially for those with low budget set aside for advertising, affiliate marketing is just the way to do it.
6. No closing time
With affiliate marketing, your business works every single second of the day while targeting a worldwide market! What could be better than that?
But all of these will be put to waste if you don't have the right niche product and all the other important tools to make it big in affiliate marketing. So you better work on this first before ever considering those benefits.
