Bad Economy, Great Business Ideas

Campbell’s Chicken Noodle soup, McDonald’s, the Hula Hoop, UPC codes, Diet Coke and Apple Computer; these companies and products are so ingrained in our minds that we fail to think of them as brand new ideas that could either make it or break it.  At one time people and companies bet their livelihoods on bringing all of them to market and all were introduced in bad economies.

Campbell’s Chicken Noodle soup was introduced in 1934 right in the midst of the Great Depression.  Ray Kroc opened the first McDonald’s during the 1955 Eisenhower recession.  During the same recession the Hula Hoop debuted in 1958.  UPC codes were introduced during the Vietnam War and an oil crisis.  Diet Coke came to market during the most severe recession since the Great Depression in 1982.  Apple introduced the first iPod in 2001 while many other technology companies were crumbling.

BUSINESS IDEAS BANK – yes you can “steal ” our ideas

Yes you can “steal” or ideas ..but you must have written permission from us ..this ,in part ,for your own legal protection.

————————————————————————————————————————————————————————

There are millions of ideas but rarely do they get progressed than thoughts in some ones head !

It is possible to collate many ideas from the thousands of websites and list them as an ideas bank , but of what use? 

Testmyidea is an ideas bank with a difference the testing is “on the fly”..that is in real time ..you give us your idea to test ( you can see the many ideas already under test )

It is unlikely to  be stolen ! The real entrepreneur has enough to cope with  : he wants  HIS  idea to be successful;

the one he has passion for.

He also knows if he did steal it and it became very successful there would always be the fear of the originator taking him to court .

Dental Advertising: Creative Marketing

In dental advertising, one of the best ways that you can do to get more patients to come into your practice is via creative marketing. Remember that the most important goal that you should have in your practice is to get more patients to come to your doorstep. And this is something we focus specifically at our dental advertising website. Dental advertising can help you with this… but you need to be more creative in the way that you do it.

Why Creative Marketing?

The whole point of creative marketing in dental advertising is to have a different and a much more different approach in getting people to become your potential patients in your dental practice. Now, you can do this by sending letters in “unique” format (more on that later). Now, the first goal is to get our marketing piece opened. The first thing is that the recepient of the mail opens the envelope, or whatever it is that we’re sending them. Then the second goal is once we get them to open the envelope is we need them to read the letter, or whatever is inside of it. And finally, the third goal is we want the recepient become our patient. We want to get them to call us or get them to come to our office. So by using creative marketing, we can accomplish those goals easily!

The Effect Of Technology In Marketing

Now, what I mean by technology here is the development of E-mail. E-mail’s a big thing right? Some people are getting a hundred e-mails a day, while some of them are getting a thousand. And that’s a lot of pieces of what used to be the traditional “mail in the envelope”. And it has eliminated the amount of personal mail. I mean, when was the last time somebody wrote you a letter? We hardly even get birthday cards in hand-written form (we now usually get them through e-mails). What comes to our traditional mailboxes are just bills and junk, and we hardly find time to look at it anymore. So, with this, as e-mail has promoted the diminishing number of the traditional letters that get to our traditional mailboxes, it’s time that you get creative in your dental advertising! When you get creative, you catch your readers attention! You want to grab them in the back so that your letter doesn’t go to the pile, or to the bin and get it looked at on a Sunday when they go through the rest of their mail. And also you want to invoke the child-like curiosity of your recepients (just like Christmas, when you cant wait to open the packages because you’re excited to know what is inside of them). And we all get that envelope in the mail that has a pen in it, where you are just being compelled to open it because you know that there is a pen in there. So you know that the mailer is going to sell you a pen, but you just have to open it.
