			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Here are 2 great TV ads for the Amazon Kindle, in a last-ditch attempt by Amazon to prop up its specialized ebook reader. </p>
<p>As you enjoy the extreme creativity of the people who shot the ads, you may share my view that Amazon has truly wasted its money on them:</p>
<p><object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/Mj5Jr0QWNMA&#038;color1=0xb1b1b1&#038;color2=0xcfcfcf&#038;hl=en_US&#038;feature=player_embedded&#038;fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/Mj5Jr0QWNMA&#038;color1=0xb1b1b1&#038;color2=0xcfcfcf&#038;hl=en_US&#038;feature=player_embedded&#038;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" allowScriptAccess="always" width="480" height="385"></embed></object></p>
<p><object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/PERiTMZ626M&#038;color1=0xb1b1b1&#038;color2=0xcfcfcf&#038;hl=en_US&#038;feature=player_embedded&#038;fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/PERiTMZ626M&#038;color1=0xb1b1b1&#038;color2=0xcfcfcf&#038;hl=en_US&#038;feature=player_embedded&#038;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" allowScriptAccess="always" width="480" height="385"></embed></object></p>
<p>The reason for the futile attempt? Here&#8217;s just <strong>ONE</strong> reason out of many:</p>
<p><object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/dKynwgUOZJo&#038;rel=0&#038;color1=0xb1b1b1&#038;color2=0xcfcfcf&#038;hl=en_US&#038;feature=player_embedded&#038;fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/dKynwgUOZJo&#038;rel=0&#038;color1=0xb1b1b1&#038;color2=0xcfcfcf&#038;hl=en_US&#038;feature=player_embedded&#038;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" allowScriptAccess="always" width="480" height="385"></embed></object></p>
<p>See how rich and moving the experience really is with an iPad?</p>
<p>At $499 for the 16GB iPad which does a zillion things in full blazing color, which is just $10 more than the Kindle DX which only lets you read ebooks in black and white, would you bet on the Kindle being around much longer, in its current form?</p>
<p>With over 2.5 million users having bought the Kindle over the past 2 years it&#8217;s available just to read books on a black and white screen &#8211; what&#8217;s your guess that there will be millions more who&#8217;ll prefer the iPad over the Kindle for reading as well, from this point onward?</p>
<p>Amazon should save its money on ads and funnel all of it into developing an <strong>IMPROVED</strong> Kindle that is better than the iPad in terms of looks, feel and experience (not just <strong>MATCH</strong> the iPad &#8211; because what&#8217;s the point?). </p>
<p>But it&#8217;s an uphill battle because Apple has set the bar so high that it&#8217;s really difficult to see how much better <strong><em>ANY</em></strong> other tablet can be.</p>
<p>And even assuming that Amazon can create a &#8220;better iPad&#8221; &#8211; by the time it could come up with that alternative, it really wouldn&#8217;t matter much anymore. </p>
<p>So the <strong>EASIEST AND LEAST RISKY</strong> strategy for Amazon to ensure that the Kindle still has a role to play is to simply slash its price. </p>
<p>Even making a loss from each unit of Kindle sold (* gasp *) &#8211; so that it can earn from the increased sales of its ebooks (as more users will now own a Kindle due to its cheaper price).</p>
<p>Or Amazon can let it die a natural death and rely on its just-released <strong><em>Kindle for the iPad app</em></strong> that iPad users can use to purchase books from its ebookstore.</p>
<p>At least until Apple decides to only allow ebooks to be purchased from its iBookstore only &#8211; assuming this isn&#8217;t against any anti-competitive laws in existence&#8230;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It&#8217;s great to be keeping up to date with all the proven business concepts, strategies and tactics to have an advantage over your competition.</p>
<p>However, the most important aspect of your success, business or otherwise, is within <strong>YOU</strong>.</p>
<p>For <strong>WITHIN </strong>you is where everything starts.</p>
<p><strong>Whether you succeed or fail is your responsibility.</strong></p>
<p>So this post is about you and your successes, even as I talk about my own.</p>
<p>I do this not to brag (<strong>really</strong>), but to give you some first-hand examples so that you know that I know what I&#8217;m talking about. Otherwise you&#8217;ll say I&#8217;m all theory and nothing else &#8211; which couldn&#8217;t be further from the truth.</p>
<p>This makes a good break from the usual business concepts, that&#8217;s for sure. But I hope you&#8217;ll see the point, because it&#8217;s the most important thing that you can do for yourself.</p>
<p>Ok, let&#8217;s begin&#8230;</p>
<p><strong>I had a number of dreams as a child.</strong></p>
<p>I wanted to become a <strong>lawyer </strong>- so I visualized becoming one. I passed the tough-as-hell English Bar exams in the UK (after getting my law degree), and dream No.1 was fulfilled. My head&#8217;s the one in between the white bust and the painting&#8230;</p>
<p><img src="http://senze.com/business-blog/wp-content/uploads/2007/11/senze_bar.jpg" alt="Sen Ze called to the Bar" /></p>
<p>The <strong>World Wide Web </strong>wasn&#8217;t even around then, but when it arrived, I had to be a part of it. </p>
<p>And so in <strong>1995 </strong>my Internet education started, with <strong>Netscape </strong>being my first lesson, and a position in an Internet company being my alternative &#8220;career&#8221; (I quit as a lawyer to pursue this hot new technology full time).</p>
<p>I visualized that I&#8217;ll master this new technology quickly. And so I did.</p>
<p>I was online practically 24 hours a day, as well as practising Internet Business and Internet Marketing concepts with my new company and its clients.</p>
<p>I visualized starting my own Internet Businesses. I did, not long after, and started making money in my <strong>Pajamas</strong>!</p>
<p>I visualized spreading the word about the wonderful world of Internet Businesses to anybody who&#8217;s interested to listen. In <strong>1999 </strong>- I conducted my 1st Boot Camp on this topic. Yep, I was a <strong>pioneer </strong>of Internet Business and Internet Marketing Boot Camps in my country.</p>
<p><strong>YEARS </strong>before my competitors even got started with their own.</p>
<p>The &#8220;<strong>Pajamas</strong>&#8221; series of Boot Camps came out in 2002 as I wanted to reach out to a bigger crowd. It was a huge vision for me &#8211; and it came true once again, with me touring two countries with it. </p>
<p><img src="http://senze.com/business-blog/wp-content/uploads/2007/11/sen_ze_bootcamp_participants.jpg" alt="Sen Ze's Internet Business and Internet Marketing Boot Camp" /></p>
<p>Once again, my competitors were still nowhere in sight until months later&#8230;.</p>
<p>I visualized doing something <strong>crazy </strong>one day, for the sheer fun of it and to raise funds for the <strong>National Council for the Blind.</strong></p>
<p>And so I drove a 4-wheel drive vehicle for a distance of 5 kilometers in downtown, busy Kuala Lumpur, in heavy traffic &#8211; while wearing <strong>2 blindfolds</strong>, and followed by the media and policemen! </p>
<p align="center"><img src="http://senze.com/business-blog/wp-content/uploads/2007/11/blindfold_drive_event.jpg" alt="Shaun Tan's Historic Blindfold Drive Event" /></p>
<p>This event made the <strong>CNN News</strong>, which was seen all over the world!</p>
<p>I visualized owning an <strong>Internet company </strong>- and I am! Watch out for more awesome products to come &#8211; they&#8217;ll blow your mind!</p>
<p align="center"> <a href="http://www.SOLOBIS.com"><img src="http://senze.com/business-blog/wp-content/uploads/2007/11/solobis.jpg" alt="SOLOBIS" /></a> </p>
<p>I visualized being a <strong>best-selling author</strong> &#8211; and I am! </p>
<p>My <strong>3rd </strong>book on a topic different from Internet Business and Internet Marketing, also went straight to the <strong>best-seller </strong>list within 2 weeks of its release, selling out its entire first print run (this shocked my publisher quite a bit..;-)!</p>
<p align="center"><img src="http://senze.com/business-blog/wp-content/uploads/2007/11/bestseller.jpg" alt="Sen Ze's best-seller" /></p>
<p align="center"><a href="http://senze.com/business-blog/internet-business/the-flying-trilogy-of-profits.htm"><img src="http://senze.com/business-blog/wp-content/uploads/2007/08/The_AirAsia_Story.jpg" alt="The AirAsia Story" /></a></p>
<p>I visualized signing my books at an author&#8217;s book signing ceremony &#8211; I did!</p>
<p><img src="http://senze.com/business-blog/wp-content/uploads/2007/11/senze_book_signing.jpg" alt="Sen Ze book signing" /></p>
<p><img src="http://senze.com/business-blog/wp-content/uploads/2007/11/senze_book_launch2.jpg" alt="Sen Ze book signing" /></p>
<p>I visualized appearing on radio &#8211; I did, many times!</p>
<p><img src="http://senze.com/business-blog/wp-content/uploads/2007/11/senze_radio_interview.jpg" alt="Sen Ze's Radio Interview" /></p>
<p>I visualized appearing on TV &#8211; I did, many times!</p>
<p><img src="http://senze.com/business-blog/wp-content/uploads/2007/11/sen_ze_on_tv3.jpg" alt="Sen Ze's TV Interview" /></p>
<p>I visualized being able to read people&#8217;s minds because of the impact it would cause to them (it&#8217;s fun!). I managed to do it not long after.</p>
<p>I visualized reading a celebrity&#8217;s mind live on TV one day. I managed to do that too! (See below):</p>
<p align="center"><img src="http://senze.com/business-blog/wp-content/uploads/2007/11/senze_mind_reader.jpg" alt="Sen Ze on TV" /></p>
<p><strong>I can go on and on, but I think I&#8217;ve made my point&#8230;</strong></p>
<p>The visualization technique works like crazy for me because when I can see what I want, very clearly, I&#8217;m programming my entire mind to look out for all the <strong>help, people and things </strong>that I need to realize my vision.</p>
<p>This is the <strong>Law of Attraction</strong> at work. Whether you believe in it or not, it has worked for me, and for many of the most successful people in the world.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s up to you to give it a chance to work for you &#8211; for if you don&#8217;t allow it to happen, it won&#8217;t. </p>
<p>All of the most magnificent buildings and achievements in the world that you now see with your own eyes, were once just a vision in someone&#8217;s mind.</p>
<p>Who then attracted all the help, people and things they need to have their vision realized.</p>
<p><strong>YOU </strong>can use the visualization technique for your own purpose. It&#8217;s extremely powerful, but you must do it right.</p>
<p>Once you start the visualization process, you&#8217;ll begin to attract all the help, people and things you&#8217;ll need to realize your vision. Do it well, and it <strong>WILL </strong>happen.</p>
<p>However, having a vision isn&#8217;t difficult for most people. But for it to work really well, you need to add something &#8220;<strong>extra</strong>&#8221; to it.</p>
<p>That something extra is the &#8220;feeling&#8221; of that entire vision in your <strong>entire body</strong>.</p>
<p>When I visualize my goals, my entire body feels the vision, and all the excitement and euphoria are felt even down to my fingers. I could be sweating or shivering from the vision, depending on what I&#8217;m seeing or experiencing.</p>
<p>For example, if I&#8217;m playing a game of football (or soccer) and I&#8217;m envisioning scoring a goal in front of millions of viewers, I&#8217;ll have the entire scene being played out in my mind, with me hearing the roar of the appreciative crowd as the ball hit the back of the opponent&#8217;s net from my <strong>one-heck-of-a kick&#8230; </strong></p>
<p>When this happens, the entire vision is entrenched into my entire being and my mind is totally programmed to make it a reality.</p>
<p>And I&#8217;ll be doing this every single day.</p>
<p>When the mind is programmed with a vision, the <strong>body </strong>takes action to make that vision a reality.</p>
<p>(By the way, my favorite position in football is that of a <strong>striker </strong>- and I&#8217;m usually one of the top strikers, if not the top striker, for the team I play with.) </p>
<p>Thus <strong>beyond </strong>all the awesome busines concepts, strategies and tactics that I&#8217;ve been discussing with you all this while &#8211; <strong>visualization </strong>is one of the most powerful &#8220;concepts&#8221; you can ever learn to do for you and your business&#8217;s sake.</p>
<p>If you have problems with visualization, or you want to take it to the next level for you to &#8220;feel&#8221; your vision in totality &#8211; there&#8217;s an <strong>awesome </strong>dinner <strong>Party </strong>in just a few weeks&#8217; time that you must attend.</p>
<p>It will enable you to create a strong vision of what you want to achieve for yourself and entrench it into your entire being.</p>
<p>Appropriately enough, it&#8217;s called the &#8220;Life Changing Party&#8221; and you can find it at <a href="http://www.LifeChangingParty.com?z=2"><strong>www.LifeChangingParty.com</strong></a>. </p>
<p>It&#8217;s fitting that it&#8217;s being held at my favorite world-class resort at <strong>6,000 feet above sea level</strong>, built by someone who had a <strong>HUGE </strong>vision and realized it through his amazing efforts:</p>
<p align="center"><img src="http://senze.com/business-blog/wp-content/uploads/2007/11/genting.jpg" alt="Genting Highlands" /></p>
<p>This man was <strong>Tan Sri Lim Goh Tong</strong>. </p>
<p>This great visionary and achiever passed away recently, but left behind a <strong>HUGE </strong>legacy in the form of his world-class resorts for all of us to be inspired by.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ll be attending the Life Changing Party, for sure. I truly hope to see you there and meet up with you in person. </p>
<p><strong>I&#8217;ll also be doing something truly amazing while there for you to experience it for yourself.</strong></p>
<p>You&#8217;ll <strong>see </strong>for yourself, right before your very eyes, just what is possible when you willingly invoke the <strong>Law of Attraction </strong>to work in your favor.</p>
<p><strong>Sign up for it now</strong> &#8211; there are <strong>limited tickets </strong>available! Tickets are very affordable too &#8211; and you&#8217;ll even get a goodie bag worth hundreds of dollars, to take home. More details are found below:</p>
<p><a href="http://www.LifeChangingParty.com?z=2"><img src="http://senze.com/business-blog/wp-content/uploads/2007/11/lifechangingparty_banner1-95.jpg" alt="Law Of Attraction Party" /></a><br />
<a href="http://www.LifeChangingParty.com?z=2"><strong>http://www.LifeChangingParty.com</strong></a></p>
<p>Do make the time for it, as it&#8217;s important to you! After all, it&#8217;s the end of the year, and you&#8217;re getting ready for the new year &#8211; so why not have fun at a party and be inspired to greatness as you usher <strong>2008 </strong>into your life?</p>
<p>I look forward to seeing you at the Party &#8211; and for you to take this simple step on your way to greatness.</p>
<p><strong>In summary&#8230;.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Visualization </strong>is a <strong>NECESSARY </strong>part of your life if you want to achieve the goals you&#8217;ve set for yourself </p>
<p><em><strong>It really is.</strong></em></p>
<p>People like <strong>Jack Canfield </strong>(co-author of the phenomenally successful &#8220;<strong>Chicken Soup For The Soul</strong>&#8221; series of books) , <strong>Jim Carrey </strong>(A-List Actor/Comedian) and <strong>Scott Adams </strong>(&#8220;<strong>Dilbert</strong>&#8221; cartoonist) all swear by it.</p>
<p>Start doing it today, every single day and then get ready to see things happening before your very eyes.</p>
<p><strong>Like magic.</strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The iPhone is a revolution, and all attention was on it and Steve Jobs at the beginning of this year.</p>
<p>In the background, heavy development was in place for Microsoft&#8217;s next big revolution.</p>
<p>No, it wasn&#8217;t the Vista Operating System.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s an iPhone, minus the phone, and maybe 50 times bigger &#8211; which opens up lots of other mind-boggling possibilities.</p>
<p>This product is going to bring people closer together socially in a way they&#8217;ve never experienced, because it&#8217;s now even more fun to be together physically.</p>
<p>Not only that, my Dad can finally use a &#8220;computer&#8221; without realizing it&#8217;s one because it&#8217;s dead simple to use (think: &#8220;play&#8221;), and because it doesn&#8217;t look and behave like a computer.</p>

<p>And if you own it, it can also be used as the <strong>ultimate </strong>remote control for your TV, because it&#8217;s impossible for you to lose it, ever.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Complexity is bad.</strong></p>
<p>There are many types of complexities in business.</p>
<p>There is technical complexity.</p>
<p>There is conceptual complexity.</p>
<p>There is implementation complexity.</p>
<p>There is management complexity.</p>
<p>Just to name a few.</p>
<p>They&#8217;re bad because by being complex, it&#8217;s hard for you as the business owner to start a business that has them for company.</p>
<p>They&#8217;ll cost you a lot more money, time and effort than a simpler business that you can do.</p>
<p>And as with any business, there&#8217;s no guarantee that you&#8217;ll be able to overcome them all.</p>
<p>Complexity is bad.</p>
<p>But then again, if you&#8217;re looking at a business full of complexities that you would like to emulate but couldn&#8217;t because of all the hurdles you must go through &#8211; one thing start to come to mind.</p>
<p>Complexity is good.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s good because if you&#8217;ve gone out to overcome those hurdles from the beginning and you succeed, you will have few, to <strong>NO </strong>competitors.</p>
<p>Just like <strong>Boeing </strong>and <strong>Airbus </strong>- the world&#8217;s 2 main competitors for commercial airplanes.</p>
<p>Between the 2 of them, they get the lion&#8217;s share of all aircraft orders from around the word &#8211; totalling trillions of dollars.</p>
<p>Just like <strong>Intel </strong>and <strong>AMD </strong>- the world&#8217;s top 2 main competitors for computer chips.</p>
<p>And Search Engines, like <strong><a href="http://senze.com/business-blog/search-engines/the-holy-grail-of-search-engine-marketing.htm">Google</a> </strong>and <strong>Yahoo</strong>.</p>
<p>Google&#8217;s algorithm is very complex and it gets more and more complex by the day.</p>
<p>Google&#8217;s quest to return very accurate search results to keep its users happy means that it&#8217;ll need to add all variables that will affect the accuracy of those results. </p>
<p>And there are hundreds of such variables, with many more being discovered and added all the time.</p>
<p>Even Yahoo isn&#8217;t quite close to Google in terms of the complexity of its search algorithm &#8211; thus you&#8217;ve seen how Google has slowly but surely pulled itself away from the pack.</p>
<p>Complexity is good in ensuring you get to protect your turf for a much longer period of time &#8211; sometimes for decades &#8211; before you need to share any customers with another competitor.</p>
<p>And if you constantly innovate and add even more value after having been successful with complexities in your business, you&#8217;ll be sitting on your throne literally forever.</p>
<p>Complexity is good.</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s the &#8220;business holy grail&#8221;:</p>
<p>Complexity in implementation and creation of a <strong>SIMPLE </strong>product that your Customer can easily understand, use and want is the best combination of all.</p>
<p>You&#8217;ll have lots of Customers and few to no competitors, for a long time to come.</p>
<p>Just like <strong>Walt Disney</strong> experienced with his hand-drawn animated full-length cartoon movies &#8211; before computers came along and made the process more accessible to his competitors. </p>
<p>But he was the king of animation for <strong>DECADES </strong>before Pixar Animation, Dreamworks and the others could even try to compete.</p>
<p>And what about <strong>IKEA </strong>- the furniture retailer?</p>
<p>Without knowing exactly what&#8217;s involved &#8211; you can <strong>SEE </strong>the sheer complexity of their operations and business in selling you flat-packed furniture with modern, functional designs that don&#8217;t cost you an arm and a leg to get.</p>
<p>Even <em><strong>thinking </strong></em>about being their possible competitor hurts.</p>
<p>Right?</p>
<p><strong>Complexity is good.</strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Simplicity is good.</strong></p>
<p>A simple to use and understand product that is also easy to create is like a god-send.</p>
<p>Your Prospects and Customers can easily buy it without having to spend too much time figuring out what it is that you&#8217;re trying to sell.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s a good thing for you because it&#8217;s very easy for you to create that product for them too.</p>
<p>Take the &#8220;<a href="http://senze.com/business-blog/category/american-idol"><strong>American Idol</strong></a>&#8221; singing competition (it&#8217;s a &#8220;business&#8221; for its producers), for example.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s a singing contest, and the winner is determined by the number of SMS votes that he/she has received, with the contestant having the lowest number of votes being booted out at the end of each episode.</p>
<p><strong>Simple. Easy. And a super-hit.</strong></p>
<p>If you were producing this program, all you need to do is to determine the format of the competition (how many songs, how long for each song, how many to start off with, etc), decide how many judges would participate, decide who they are to be, decide the date and venues for the auditions, set up the phones lines, deal with the network, find the sponsors, and so on.</p>
<p>Those are not rocket-science stuff. There may be many things that need to be done, but they&#8217;re simple stuff that anybody with the right experience can do.</p>
<p>And so American Idol began its huge money-making journey and has done so for the past 6 seasons now, with the 7th underway.</p>
<p>Now &#8220;American Idol&#8221; is a franchise of &#8220;<strong>Pop Idol</strong>&#8221; which began in the UK. </p>
<p>Before long, many countries bought the franchise and started having their own &#8220;Idol&#8221; competition on television. It&#8217;s hard to miss the &#8220;Idol&#8221; phenomenon everywhere you go.</p>
<p>However, because the show itself isn&#8217;t difficult to create, it wasn&#8217;t long before copycat versions of it started. This has resulted in the &#8220;Idol&#8221; competition no longer being held with the copycat version taking the spotlight instead, with a different label, different number of judges, different format for the competition, but always ending with SMS votes determining the winner.</p>
<p>Some other countries never bought the franchise, but borrowed the idea and started their own version right from the beginning using all sorts of label except &#8220;Idol&#8221;.</p>
<p><strong>Simplicity is bad.</strong></p>
<p>(For the &#8220;Idol&#8221; franchise, that is.)</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The World&#8217;s First Personal Domain Name Directory at www.OMNICITI.com now has more than 1,000 listings of domains from around the world that contain the owners&#8217; name&#8230;</p>
<p>Check it out below:</p>
<p align="center"><strong><a href="http://www.OMNICITI.com" target="new">www.OMNICITI.com</a></strong></p>
<p>It lists some unique occupations too. There&#8217;s a Lexicographer, a Polar Expeditor, a Calligrapher and an Apologist (!).</p>
<p>What&#8217;s an Apologist? Somebody who apologises for a living?</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s the definition, as found in wikipedia:</p>
<blockquote><p><strong>Apologists are authors, writers, editors of scientific logs or academic journals and leaders, who during their lifetimes were known as radicals and extremists for taking on the points in arguments, conflicts or positions that were during their eras either placed under popular scrutinies or viewed under persecutory examinations. The term comes from the Greek word apologia (απολογία), meaning defense of a position against an attack.</strong></p></blockquote>
<p>Interesting, no? </p>
<p>And click on &#8211;> <a href="http://www.omniciti.com/search.php?what=apologist">OMNICITI Personal Domain Name Directory Search</a> to find one such Apologist!</p>
<p>Do you know of anybody with his own domain name consisting of his own name who should be listed? Let him or her know about OMNICITI now. It&#8217;s also a great resource if you&#8217;re looking for people to work with you on your projects as they take themselves seriously enough to have a personal domain for themselves.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This is an amazing concept that I wrote about a few years back that caused quite a ruckus among those who read it.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s a &#8220;technique&#8221; that gets you what you want by making people around you like you.</p>
<p>If fact, it makes you an <strong>IMMEDIATE HIT</strong> with your Prospects.</p>
<p>Not only will they like you, they will <strong>REMEMBER </strong>you. </p>
<p>Not only that, they <strong>CANNOT </strong>forget you, no matter what happens.</p>
<p>Even <strong>YEARS </strong>later, when you yourself have forgotten their names or how they even look like!</p>
<p>Best of all &#8211; when they call out to you on the street (remember, they wouldn&#8217;t be able to forget you even if they wanted to), you will <strong>IMMEDIATELY </strong>remember their own names!</p>
<p>Now which of your Prospects don&#8217;t like to be remembered (fondly) by others?</p>
<p>But let&#8217;s get back to <strong>YOU</strong>, as this technique is about you first, although it&#8217;s also about your Prospects.</p>
<p>When you&#8217;re liked (and remembered &#8211; which goes hand in hand with likeability), you increase the chances of getting what you want, significantly.</p>
<p>Now imagine the effect this powerful concept will have on your business and personal life.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s something worth thinking about.</p>
<p>And all you need to know is what to say to the people you would like to do business with.</p>
<p>It involves the following questions:</p>
<p><strong>1. What&#8217;s the sweetest sound in the universe to any person?</p>
<p>2. Why is that the sweetest sound in the universe to that person?</strong></p>
<p>Here are the answers that form the basis of this awesome technique.</p>
<p>The sweetest sound in the world to any person, of course, is his own <strong>NAME</strong>.</p>
<p>This is a <strong>FACT</strong>. </p>
<p>(Check out <strong>Dale Carnegie&#8217;s </strong>classic book, &#8220;<strong>How To Win Friends And Influence People</strong>&#8221; that has a chapter or two on this).</p>
<p>There are minor exceptions (as always), but the vast majority of people <strong>LOVE </strong>to hear the sound of their own names.</p>
<p>Why?</p>
<p>I mentioned this before, and I&#8217;ll say it again.</p>
<p>We <strong>LOVE </strong>ourselves.</p>
<p>This is the reason why we can look in the mirror every day and feel sad that a wrinkle is appearing, or the hairline is receding or the waistline is expanding.</p>
<p><strong>Otherwise we couldn&#8217;t care less.</strong></p>
<p>And our names is a <strong>shortcut </strong>to everything that&#8217;s us. We use our own names to refer to ourselves.</p>
<p>This fact gives you a very <strong>potent </strong>tool to get ahead in your careers or businesses.</p>
<p>So how do you apply this knowledge?</p>
<p>Simple.</p>
<p>It&#8217;ll work only when you&#8217;re meeting somebody for the very first time. There are other conditions, but I&#8217;ll get to them soon enough.</p>
<p>So okay, both of you don&#8217;t know each other&#8217;s names and have never met before. </p>
<p>You think he may be a good Prospect for your business.</p>
<p>This is what you do.</p>
<p>Ask him for his name.</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s just say he says his name is &#8220;<strong>Paul Jones</strong>&#8220;.</p>
<p>Okay. Now this is <strong>EXTREMELY </strong>important.</p>
<p>You respond with the following:</p>
<p>&#8220;What? That&#8217;s <strong>TOTALLY AMAZING.&#8221;</strong></p>
<p>Then you wait for his response.</p>
<p>He&#8217;ll say, &#8220;Why is that?&#8221;</p>
<p>And you say (this is <strong>EVEN MORE </strong>important &#8211; listen up):</p>
<p>&#8220;Because my name is <strong>PAUL JONES</strong> too!&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Isn&#8217;t that amazing?&#8221;</p>
<p>(Of course it is. I&#8217;m in shock even as I write this.)</p>
<p>Do you see what you&#8217;re doing?</p>
<p><strong>WHATEVER </strong>name he calls out, you respond with the <strong>SAME EXACT NAME</strong>!</p>
<p>Now tell me this.</p>
<p>How soon do you think he&#8217;ll forget your &#8220;name&#8221; after that meeting?</p>
<p>Right. <strong>NEVER </strong>.</p>
<p>Because it&#8217;s his name too and he, of course, <strong>NEVER </strong>forgets his own name.</p>
<p>Think about it. How many people in the past have you met that have the same exact name as you do?</p>
<p>Right.</p>
<p><strong>NONE</strong>.</p>
<p>And because it never happens, we take full notice of our namesake when it does.</p>
<p>Your Prospect will be doing exactly this, to you.</p>
<p>Since he absolutely likes to hear the sound of his own name, some of that liking will transfer over to you as well &#8211; and you don&#8217;t have to do much to earn it, apart from repeating his name back to him</p>
<p>Powerful, no?</p>
<p><strong>But that isn&#8217;t the only benefit with this technique.</strong></p>
<p>Once you&#8217;ve repeated his name back to him, <strong>YOU </strong>can <strong>IMMEDIATELY FORGET</strong> it from that point on, and you will <strong>IMMEDIATELY </strong>be able to <strong>RECALL </strong>his name even years later when you see him again.</p>
<p>How?</p>
<p>Because when you share the same exact name with somebody else, he&#8217;ll be affected more by this than you because it really isn&#8217;t your real name, but it is his. </p>
<p>So when he sees you walking down the street one day &#8211; you can bet that last dollar you have that <strong>HE&#8217;LL GREET YOU FIRST</strong> by calling out his name to you (and probably laughing as well), because he thinks that&#8217;s also <strong>YOUR NAME</strong>!</p>
<p>And what happens when this happens?</p>
<p><strong>RIGHT! </p>
<p>YOU NOW KNOW <u>HIS NAME</u> AS SOON AS HE HAS GREETED YOU!!</strong></p>
<p>You need never, ever be caught not knowing someone&#8217;s name again.</p>
<p><strong>Brilliant, no?</strong></p>
<p>This works equally as well for the opposite sex.</p>
<p>How?</p>
<p>For example, she says her name is &#8220;<strong>Georgia Smith</strong>&#8220;.</p>
<p>You say, &#8220;That&#8217;s <strong>TOTALLY AMAZING!</strong> Because my name&#8217;s <strong>George Smith!</strong>&#8221;</p>
<p>She says &#8220;<strong>Christine Langton</strong>&#8220;. </p>
<p>You say &#8220;<strong>REALLY!!! I CAN&#8217;T BELIEVE THIS</strong>. I&#8217;m <strong>Chris Langton!</strong>&#8221;</p>
<p>She says &#8220;<strong>Pauline Zega</strong>&#8220;.</p>
<p>You say &#8220;<strong>I DON&#8217;T BELIEVE THIS. I&#8217;m Paul Zega!</strong>&#8221;</p>
<p>Heck, it works even when you&#8217;re of a different race.</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s say you&#8217;re a male Caucasian.</p>
<p>He says his name is &#8220;<strong>Kareem Abdul Jaabar</strong>&#8220;.</p>
<p>You say, &#8220;<strong>THAT&#8217;S TOTALLY AMAZING!</strong> My name&#8217;s <strong>Kareem Abdul Jaabar </strong>too!&#8221;</p>
<p>He says his name is &#8220;<strong>Hiroshi Hiratha</strong>&#8220;.</p>
<p>You say, &#8220;<strong>YOU CAN&#8217;T BE SERIOUS</strong>. I&#8217;m <strong>HIROSHI HIRATHA</strong> too!&#8221;</p>
<p>Of course, you&#8217;ll have a great time too telling the story of how you got that name.</p>
<p>And here&#8217;s <strong>AN EXPLOSIVE</strong> mix of race and gender, and you don&#8217;t have the male equivalent of her name:</p>
<p>She says her name is &#8220;<strong>May Lin</strong>&#8220;.</p>
<p>You say &#8220;<strong>ARE THE STARS ALIGNED TODAY?</strong> My name&#8217;s <strong>May Lin </strong>too!&#8221;.</p>
<p>In fact, the more different you are to your name (as in you&#8217;re of a different race and gender) which is also the other person&#8217;s name, the <strong>STRONGER </strong>the effect will be on him or her.</p>
<p><strong>Try it &#8211; it works like crazy!!!!</strong></p>
<p>Here&#8217;s another variation of this powerful concept that is equally as important to you in your personal and business life.</p>
<p>What&#8217;s the next thing after a person&#8217;s name that she will <strong>NEVER EVER FORGET and treat equally as important?</strong></p>
<p>Right.</p>
<p><strong>Her birthday</strong>, of course.</p>
<p>So if you want to remember another person&#8217;s birthday, all you have to do is to ask her, and whatever date it is, you say&#8230;</p>
<p>Well, what do you say?</p>
<p>Of course.</p>
<p>&#8220;Oh, that&#8217;s totally <strong>AMAZING</strong>. That&#8217;s <strong>MY </strong>birthday too!&#8221;</p>
<p>(You&#8217;re <em><strong>such </strong></em>a quick learner&#8230;I&#8217;m so proud of you.)</p>
<p>So when her birthday comes, you can bet <strong>she&#8217;ll be thinking about you</strong>. And if she calls to wish you a happy birthday (on the day it isn&#8217;t), you <strong>KNOW </strong>it&#8217;s her birthday, and you can wish her back!</p>
<p>Can you imagine how happy she would be &#8211; even though she&#8217;s the one who actually reminded you of her birthday?</p>
<p><strong>NOTE:</strong></p>
<p><strong> The above methods work best under the following conditions:</strong></p>
<p><strong>1. You are in a one-to-one meeting with the Subject </strong><br />
You can&#8217;t do this in front of people who know you&#8217;re not &#8220;Paris Hilton&#8221; and your birthday isn&#8217;t on the 29th February. You just can&#8217;t, and you shouldn&#8217;t, you hear me?</p>
<p><strong>2. You appear totally amazed and excited</strong><br />
You must be happy that you&#8217;re sharing the same exact name/birthday with someone else, because in real life, you would be.</p>
<p><strong>3. You must be able to lie convincingly</strong><br />
Yep, you&#8217;ll be throwing your ethics/morals out of the window. It absolutely won&#8217;t work if you feel guilty or nervous when you&#8217;re talking to them.  </p>
<p>If you can do all of the above, you&#8217;re all set.</p>
<p><b>Sen <font color="red">Z</font>e</b></p>
<p><strong>P.S.</strong> Do I use this &#8220;Name&#8221; technique? Are you crazy? Of course not. Can&#8217;t you see my name in your browser? </p>
<p><strong>P.P.S.</strong> The logic behind this technique is very sound, even though the morals/ethics behind it are not. I don&#8217;t actually use it and you shouldn&#8217;t either. It&#8217;s a joke, so lighten up.</p>
<p>This &#8220;technique&#8221; is shown to you so that you realize just how important our names are to ourselves and others &#8211; so if you don&#8217;t already have a Personal Domain Name that is made up of your actual name, click below and get one now:</p>
<p align="center"><a href="http://www.SOLOBIS.com" target="new"><strong>Personal Domain Name Plan</strong></a></p>
<p><strong>P.P.P.S.</strong> A buddy of mine <strong>ACTUALLY </strong>uses the &#8220;Birthday&#8221; technique! I know because some lady called him up on his cellphone and wished him a happy birthday when we were talking, and he wished her back &#8211; in front of a confused me, because he had celebrated his birthday 2 months before with a bunch of us! </p>
<p><strong>P.P.P.P.S.</strong> In the <strong>OMINICITI Personal <a href="http://www.OMNICITI.com">Domain Names Directory</a> (which has 700+ listings of websites with Personal Domain Names now), </strong>there are two &#8220;<strong>Susan Isaacs</strong>&#8220;. </p>
<p>One Susan Issacs is found at <strong><a href="http://www.SusanIsaacs.com" target="new">www.SusanIsaacs.com</a></strong>, and the other one is found at <strong><a href="http://www.SusanIsaacs.net" target="new">www.SusanIsaacs.net</a> </strong>(if you can&#8217;t get the dotcom version of your name, get the dotnet version, or whatever version you can get your hands on because once they&#8217;re gone, they&#8217;re likely gone forever). </p>
<p>Both are totally different people doing different things. One&#8217;s an Author, the other&#8217;s an Actress. If you put them together at a party, you can bet neither will forget the other and what she does and show she looks, for as long as they live! Check their sites out &#8211; you&#8217;ll see how different they are in all aspects even though they share the same name.</p>

<p>Yes, they&#8217;re all experts at what they do.</p>
<p>But even better, and <strong>even more stunning</strong>, is the fact that the vast majority of them don&#8217;t have a web site at their own Personal Domain Name that bears their actual name!</p>
<p>Just do a quick check, right now.</p>
<p>How many experts around you do?</p>
<p><strong>Right &#8211; few, to NONE.</strong></p>
<p>But a Personal Domain Name for experts is a no-brainer.</p>
<p>Why?</p>
<p>Here are just seven reasons:</p>
<p><font color="red"><strong>Reason #1: We remember other people by their <strong>NAMES</strong> first</strong></font></p>
<p>Then we&#8217;ll associate that name with the company they work with &#8211; if we bother to do this additional linking exercise in the first place.</p>
<p>The company they&#8217;re associated with is <strong>USUALLY </strong>the next thing we&#8217;ll think of, <strong>AFTER </strong>we&#8217;ve got a name on the person, or if we can&#8217;t remember his name.</p>
<p>We associate other people by their names first and foremost because we need a <strong>LABEL </strong>to link that person with.</p>
<p>But a company can be home to more than one employee.</p>
<p>And its employess can move to another company over time.</p>
<p>Or it can die within 5 years (as most businesses do).</p>
<p><strong>Whereas people have an average lifespan of 70-80 years.</strong></p>
<p>And so a company is a distinct entity that is totally separate from the person.</p>
<p><strong>Even if Microsoft is Bill Gates and Steve Jobs is Apple.</strong></p>
<p>(They aren&#8217;t, actually.)</p>
<p>Because you&#8217;ll call them &#8220;Bill&#8221; or &#8220;Steve&#8221;, not &#8220;Microsoft&#8221; or &#8220;Apple&#8221; respectively.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s &#8220;Bill&#8221; first, then &#8220;Microsoft&#8221;. Or &#8220;Steve&#8221; first, then &#8220;Apple&#8221;.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s just the way the brain works. </p>
<p><strong>THIS IS A FACT.</strong></p>
<p>You know it is. </p>
<p><strong>AND IF YOU&#8217;RE AN EXPERT YOURSELF, YOU CAN EITHER TAKE ADVANTAGE OF IT, OR WATCH YOUR COMPETITORS DO IT AT YOUR EXPENSE.</strong></p>
<p><font color="red"><strong>Reason #2: The Internet Is All Around Us</strong></font></p>
<p>And with the Internet being such a big part of our lives now and in time to come &#8211; a Personal Domain Name will soon become a <strong>necessity</strong>.</p>
<p>Practically everybody has heard of it and the World Wide Web.</p>
<p>And <strong>hundreds of millions of people</strong> use it every single day to do their research, find information or best of all, buy products or services.</p>
<p>And you can bet that shirt on your back that some of your Prospects/Customers will use it at some point to look for you.</p>
<p><strong>Over 40% of my Prospects/Customers </strong>find me by typing my name directly into their Internet Browsers followed by a &#8220;.com&#8221; at the back.</p>
<p>That&#8217;s a <strong>HUGE </strong>percentage by any means.</p>
<p>And that&#8217;s potential Prospects/Customers lost if you don&#8217;t have a Personal Domain Name in the name you&#8217;re known for, especially when you&#8217;re an expert at what you do and people look out for you for help!</p>
<p><font color="red"><strong>Reason #3: It Costs Less Than $10/Year</strong></font></p>
<p>A Personal Domain Name costs only <strong>$8.10/year </strong>at this <a href="http://www.secureserver.net/default.asp?prog_id=ematrixinc" target="new">Domain Name Registrar</a>.</p>
<p>For less than $10/year, your status has now been elevated to one that is higher than everybody else WITHOUT a Personal Domain Name.</p>
<p>You suddenly stand out. You&#8217;re different. You have something that is related to the Internet in some way. </p>
<p><strong>You&#8217;re now cooler than everybody else carrying a cell or mobile phone but don&#8217;t have a Personal Domain Name!</strong></p>
<p><font color="red"><strong>Reason #4: Your Web Site At Your Personal Domain Name Sells Your Services For You</strong></font></p>
<p>Your Personal Domain Name is the address for your web site. SOLOBIS enhances some of the best-looking WordPress themes for your use. </p>
<p>You simply focus on your content by writing about you and what you do, and <strong>selling </strong>any related items you may have there as well by putting up information about them and linking it to an order form for orders to be made via credit card. </p>
<p>And writing and publishing at your Blog for the world to see is as easy as writing and sending e-mail to your contacts!</p>
<p><font color="red"><strong>Reason #5: You Have More Than One Profit Center</strong></font></p>
<p>The SOLOBIS Personal Domain Name Plan comes with the <strong>&#8220;SOLOBIS Personal Domain Name Profits E-Course&#8221; worth $197</strong> that will teach you more ways to profit from your Personal Domain Name apart from just selling your services/expertise on your Blog above.</p>
<p>Discover some other mind-bogglingly easy ways that anybody can do to profit from their Personal Domain Name &#8211; by simply using it!</p>
<p><font color="red"><strong>Reason #6: You Get Express Listing In OMNICITI</strong></font></p>
<p><a href="http://www.OMNICITI.com" target="new">OMNICITI.com</a> is the world&#8217;s <strong>first Personal Domain Name Directory </strong>that only lists web sites with Personal Domain Names. It currently has over <strong>620 links</strong> and is growing every single day. </p>
<p>Once you&#8217;ve posted a good profile about yourself on your Blog, you can then submit your Personal Domain Name to it for listing (just make sure you follow its guidelines). </p>
<p>You will be seen by others who are checking out other people for certain expertise or help, all over the world.</p>
<p><font color="red"><strong>Reason #7: One Day, <em>Everybody </em>Will Have His Own Personal Domain Name</strong></font></p>
<p>This is my brain-dead prediction &#8211; and I&#8217;m having lots of fun seeing it becoming a reality day by day. I&#8217;m sure you can see it too by now.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s been happening since the World Wide Web started &#8211; but it&#8217;s about to take on a speed it&#8217;s never seen before. </p>
<p><strong>So get your preferred Personal Domain Name now before they&#8217;re all gone forever.</strong></p>
<p>By being here, you&#8217;ve been alerted to the next great trend, worldwide. </p>
<p>What&#8217;s more, you can actually <em><strong>see </strong></em>it happening in real time.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Yesterday was <font size="5">crazy&#8230;</font></p>
<p>The <strong>SOLOBIS Personal Domain Name Plan </strong>(codenamed &#8220;<strong>Project SEGO</strong>&#8220;) was launched at <strong>www.SOLOBIS.com</strong>.</p>
<p>And not long after that we had technical glitches with the <strong>Personal Domain Name Search Tool.</strong></p>
<p><font size="5"><strong>Too many </strong></font>were using it to search for their own Personal Domains to see if they&#8217;ve been grabbed by other people from around the world, and it just didn&#8217;t work after a while.</p>
<p>Worse, it showed some domains as &#8220;<strong>UNAVAILABLE</strong>&#8221; when they <font size="5">were.</font></p>
<p><strong>LOL&#8230;</strong></p>
<p>If you were one of those who were disappointed that your name has been taken in all Domain Name forms (like JohnSmith.com, JohnSmth.net and JohnSmith.info, for example), please try again at the following link, to be sure. It&#8217;ll only take you a few seconds:</p>
<p><font size="5">
<p align="center"><strong><strong><a href="http://www.SOLOBIS.com" target="new">http://www.SOLOBIS.com</a></strong></strong></p>
<p></font></p>
<p>You may just be in luck&#8230;</p>
<p>Remember, there can only be one version of each, and when they&#8217;re gone &#8211; they&#8217;ll likely stay gone forever. </p>
<p>So make sure you <strong>GRAB YOURS</strong> today, and make a huge difference in how others perceive you.</p>
<p>The <font size="5">ridiculously low price of just $9.97/month</font> gets you a beautiful, working SOLOBIS-Enhanced WordPress Blog and unlimited e-mail addresses based on your Personal Domain, plus an E-Course called &#8220;Personal Domain Name Profits&#8221; worth $197 that will be sent to you over a period of time.</p>
<p>This E-Course in the form of e-mails sent to you every other day will show you some <font size="5"><em><strong>extremely easy </strong></em></font>methods of generating lots of spare income with your own Personal Domain Name that don&#8217;t involve conducting(expensive) AdWords campaigns, doing (time-consuming) Keyword Research, (religiously) writing and submitting (numerous) articles to Article Directories, or adding AdSense codes on your Blog pages.</p>
<p>Check it out!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The answer is <font size="5"><strong>EVERYBODY</strong>.</font></p>
<p>If you&#8217;re <strong>John Smith</strong> and you&#8217;re fresh out of college or you&#8217;re already working &#8211; how many of your friends or fellow colleagues have a Personal Domain Name (ie a Domain Name made up of his own name)?</p>
<p>Right.</p>
<p><font size="5"><strong>NONE.</strong></font></p>
<p>So why is this important?</p>
<p>If you were to go for job interviews one day &#8211; do you think your interviewer will notice that you&#8217;ve got your own Personal Domain Name at &#8220;<strong>www.JohnSmith.com</strong>&#8220;?</p>
<p>Especially when he himself has yet to have one?</p>
<p>Especially after you have conveniently pointed it out to him?</p>
<p>And especially when everybody else he&#8217;s interviewing doesn&#8217;t have their own Personal Domain Name, web site/Blog or E-Mail address? </p>
<p>But they do have<font size="5"> &#8220;<strong>james1983@gmail.com</strong>&#8220;? </p>
<p>Or &#8220;<strong>susan_sweetie@yahoo.com</strong>&#8220;? </p>
<p>Or &#8220;<strong>will_die4love@hotmail.com</strong>&#8220;?</font></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p align="right"><font size="5">And you only have </p>
<p>&#8220;<strong>john@johnsmith.com</strong>&#8220;?</font></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Or they do have a <strong>Blog</strong>, at </p>
<p><font size="5">&#8220;<strong>www.MySpace.com/2334343</strong>&#8220;?</font></p>
<p>Or <font size="5">&#8220;<strong>www.james.blogspot.com</strong>&#8220;?</font></p>
<p>Or <font size="5">&#8220;<strong>www.xanga.com/noolmusic</strong>&#8220;?</font></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p align="right"><font size="5">Compared to your </p>
<p>&#8220;<strong>www.JohnSmith.com</strong>&#8220;?</font></p>
<p>How much of an impression do you think your &#8220;competitors&#8221; are going to make on <strong>ANYBODY</strong>?</p>
<p>Can you see now how <strong>a Personal Domain Name that contains your actual name is a no-brainer?</strong></p>
<p>But what can you put on your Blog at your &#8220;<strong>www.JohnSmith.com</strong>&#8220;?</p>
<p>Hmmm&#8230;.let&#8217;s see.</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s make it easy, yet totally beneficial to you.</p>
<p>How about your <font size="5">resume?</font></p>
<p>Maybe some details about your working experiences in the same industry?</p>
<p>A revelation of your &#8220;<strong>Employee Of The Month</strong>&#8221; Award?</p>
<p><img src="http://senze.com/business-blog/wp-content/uploads/2007/06/employee%20award31.jpg" alt="Employee Of The Month Award" /></p>
<p>Photos of you &#8220;in action&#8221;, receiving the Award?</p>
<p>Details of <font size="5">your projects</font> you&#8217;ve worked on?</p>
<p align="center"><img src="http://senze.com/business-blog/wp-content/uploads/2007/06/businessfunction.jpg" alt="Business Function" /></p>
<p>Shots of you with your business partners (to show how social you are, and maybe <font size="5">who you know</font> &#8211; which could be very useful for certain jobs)?</p>
<p><strong>You know?</strong></p>
<p>You can put whatever it is you want on your Blog to achieve your purpose <font size="5">at a moment&#8217;s notice</font> because with the <strong>SOLOBIS-Enchanced WordPress Blogs</strong>, you don&#8217;t have to know how to design or put up a web page. Just log into your Blog Administrative Area and type your post, upload some photos from your computer and click on the &#8220;Publish&#8221; button &#8211; and you&#8217;re done.</p>
<p>Just like that.</p>
<p>You can easily delete your posts with a few clicks too, and put up other stuff on your Blog for <font size="5">another purpose at another time.</font></p>
<p>A Blog at your Personal Domain Name and e-mail addresses based on your Personal Domain are such <font size="5">simple and powerful marketing tools</font> for yourself that you&#8217;ll be silly not to set them up &#8211; especially when it&#8217;s only going to cost you a paltry <font size="6"><strong>$10/month!</strong></font></p>
<p>You&#8217;ll <font size="5"><strong>STAND OUT FROM THE CROWD <u>INSTANTLY</u></strong></font> because your contacts don&#8217;t know how easy and cheap it is for them to get their own Personal Domain Name and e-mail addresses based on them.</p>
<p><strong>They&#8217;ve always thought a Domain Name is for businesses, not individuals.</strong></p>
<p>However, if you like, you can point the way for them to get their own Personal Domain Name too by referring them to the <font size="5"><strong><a href="http://www.SOLOBIS.com/sego" target="new">SOLOBIS Personal Domain Name Plan</a></strong></font> with everything set up for them. </p>
<p>They&#8217;ll do this quickly too since there can only be <font size="5"><strong>ONE .com or .net or .info </strong></font>for every personal name.</p>
<p>And once they&#8217;ve got one, they <strong>WILL NOT </strong>give it up as it only costs them the same <font size="5"><strong>paltry $10/month</strong></font> for their Personal Doman Name and hosting of their Blog and e-mail accounts. </p>
<p>This, therefore, will earn you <font size="5"><strong>Residual Income </strong></font> from <strong>SOLOBIS </strong>for <strong>YEARS </strong>to come!</p>
<p>The more friends you have who get the SOLOBIS Personal Domain Name Plan from you, the more Residual Income you will be making.</p>
<p><strong>With a &#8220;product&#8221; that impresses those who don&#8217;t have it &#8211; which is the vast majority of us.</strong></p>
<p>Get it <strong>NOW </strong>and start reaping its benefits within days of using it:</p>

<p>P.S. <font size="5"><a href="http://www.OMNICITI.com"><strong>The OMNICITI Personal Domain Name Directory</strong></a>,</font> the first of its kind in the world, now has </p>
<p><font size="5">572</font> Personal Domain Name listings. </p>
<p>This is an additional 50 Personal Domain Name web sites compared to yesterday. Check out its growth every day and see for yourself the Personal Domain Name mini-movement that will soon become a mega-movement!</p>
