			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>After years of working dead end jobs, most of us find ourselves for any business opportunity that can change our lives. Bills, mortgages and college fees seem to add financial burdens that most families are not able to cope with. It is not surprising that we look for any means to save our money. From spending less money to discount shopping.</p>
<p>The good news is that you can be able to both make more money as well as save more when you find the perfect opportunity.</p>
<p>It is not easy to find that perfect business opportunity. If it is not the time required to start a new business, it is funding or worse, a con artist disappearing with your hard-earned money. You are not alone if you feel that business and especially online business is not for you.</p>
<p>This can however make you miss numerous business opportunities that can change your life forever. Countless “normal people” have found their wealth by keeping a positive attitude. It is possible to have a business opportunity that changes your life with very limited investment on your part.</p>
<p>You do not even need any previous experience. Your age does not matter and you only need to work two to ten hours a week. All you need is a positive attitude and a team to guide you through the initial stages of your business.</p>
<p>For those who wish to save money, why not try discount shopping groups? Even when we are short of money, we still have to shop. So why not shop in places that give you a discount. It is true when they say, a penny saved is a penny gained. The problem is that it is not easy to get the information you need to find shopping discounts that can change your life.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In what may be one of the biggest news items coming out of Africa, it seems that there is a serious price war going on in Kenya for mobile phone business.</p>
<p>Apparently, one company called Zain reduced their calling rates by 50%. Much to the chagrin of the major player in the industry called Safaricom. This has resulted in some major movement of users from Zain to Safaricom to the point where Zain is overwhelmed by the call rates.</p>
<p>One caller is quoted as saying that low charges are more important than a brand. I wonder when the same will happen here in the USA. I get very annoyed when I see my cable bills. The cheapest thing I can ever seem to get is my <a href="http://www.accessorygeeks.com/cell-phone-battery.html">cell phone batteries</a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Trying to be that type of business online is quite simply;impossible.</p>
<p>You have to find a niche to work with. Unless you have the resources of a blue chip company, building a niche store or website is your best course of action. Even Nation finds it difficult trying to juggle an online newspaper, Nsoko and a forum.</p>
<h3>How to Find Your Niche Store</h3>
<p>There are a myriad of different strategy to choosing a good niche. I’m not saying that the other methods are wrong, it’s just that this method has produced the best results in building, promoting and monetizing a site.</p>
<p>There are 6 things I look at before I decide what niche business my next website will be. In the case of Kenya, it is still very easy to build a niche store that is profitable.</p>
<ol>
<li>Don’t choose a Niche that is too narrow </li>
<li>Choose a niche that appeals to every day interests and hobbies </li>
<li>Don’t choose too big a niche and lose focus </li>
<li>Pick a Niche that is Product Focused </li>
<li>Pick a Niche that has demand </li>
<li>Choose a Niche that has low competition </li>
</ol>
<p>That’s all folks.</p>
<p>Owing an online business or setting up an online business presence is the same as starting any other business. You have to plan before you even think about implementing your <a href="http://alexmaina.com">Kenya internet marketing</a> strategies.</p>
<p>Using the above tips in finding a niche will allow you to <strong>build a niche store</strong> that should be profitable and can grow in the long run.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I don’t know if I talked about this last week, but it seems there is a very serious attack on websites in a few hosting companies. </p>
<p>For a reason not clear yet, it seems that many php based websites especially wordpress sites have malicious code injected in their codes. What is more worrying is that attempts to remove these code have failed consistently. </p>
<p>I have suffered big time due to this with nearly all my wordpress sites infected. Even after I clean any files I find, it comes back. I have tried everything and now I am tired. My host claims it is being infected from my own computer. Even after running various malware software, I have not found it. I was even tempted to call <a href="http://www.consonus.com/support/">Symantec support</a>.</p>
<p>If you have the same problem that I seem to have, please feel free to tell me what to do with it. It is really getting under my collar and I just can’t lose my sites to something that is stumping the whole internet community.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Every day you go to your mail box and for those who are a bit learned like  me, to the email box, you are bound to receive numerous get rich quick schemes.  I always ask myself one question. If these fellows are making 10,000 dollars in  a week, why would they tell me?</p>
<p>It’s not that I am greedy, I just don’t see why I should tell you how I am  quickly becoming a millionaire for the low price of $13. One way I know they are  making that kind of money is telling me that they make that kind of money then I  send them my money. It only takes 1000 fools in America to make $10,000 a day  without sweating.</p>
<p>I seriously which fool can fall for this kind of stuff. I would recommend  that they take <a href="http://prenatalvitamins.net/">prenatal vitamins</a>.  Seriously. I know it works as it made my wife a little less hectic, active and  able to think right. Sorry dear.</p>
<p>Heck, if you send me $7 right now, I will show you the secrets of my youth. I  just take this strange fruit from Africa and presto. I am young again. Please  send by money order.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So the guys in the UN again messed up a scientific research on global  warming. So what is new. As usual the crazy people are at it again saying that  there is nothing like climate change and in fact, everything is honkey  dorry.</p>
<p>I don’t think so. I am no scientist. I hate biology and such boring subjects.  However, I am not foolish enough to think that global warming should be taken as  casually as talking about <a href="http://www.mensblogtalk.com/VigRXPlus.html">vigrx</a> in the pub. It is a  serious issue that is already affecting countries around the world.</p>
<p>No one needs to be a genius to see that the snow caps on Mt. Kilimanjaro are  disappering. Tanzania like Kenya is a very beautiful country. However, its  beauty is under threat. Research has shown that Lake Tanganyika has already  started showing signs of decline.</p>
<p>Africa&#8217;s lake Tanganyika has heated up sharply over the past 90 years and is  now warmer than at any time for at least 1,500 years, a scientific paper said on  Sunday, adding that fish and wildlife are threatened. Since it is in Africa, it  is not serious news. However, I wonder how long we shall be able to pretend that  the world is flat?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There is a reason why companies spend millions just to look good. Image does sell. Whether people like it or not, they are more likely to feel safer with a person who looks good than the opposite.</p>
<p>I know it feels unfair but people believe that what you see is what you get. For example, if you go to a garage that has no oil spots anywhere, you will be inclined to think that their services are more expensive than the ramshackle you passed up the road.</p>
<p>When you see someone wearing a suit, you are more likely to buy from him than someone who’s in jeans. Of course computer geeks have tried to change that attitude, but the truth is they go for their interviews in suits. </p>
<p>Let’s assume you have a <a href="http://www.creativedisplaysnow.com/Default.aspx">cardboard display</a> at your local business show that just looks untidy. You may actually lose some business to the guy who gives terrible service. All because you look “less professional” than your competitor.</p>
<p>So it is official. People do judge you from your appearance. Most especially your first contact.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Every once in a while, I get lost in the main reason why capbn was started in the first place. It was to be able to learn how to make and save money before I got too tired to earn any. I have to say, sometimes it is easier to save money than to save it. </p>
<p>It is like someone who worries so much about failing to lose weight. Goes to get all manner of diets includind <a href="http://www.jennycraigreviews.org/">jenny craig</a>. Yet the solution is simply to avoid eating. Ok, I’m kidding, but you get the point.</p>
<p>First, automatically enroll in your company retirement account. It always bugs me when I see company reps looking for people to sign up for these retirement accounts. Very few people sign up for the 401k. Save money by signing up for the 401k this week.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Every now and then, everyone gets to the point where things don’t seem to work out. It always seems to happen unexpectedly. But, when it does, it can be extremely debilitating. </p>
<p>For some reason, once in a while, your body and mind completely shut down and show no interest in making your life easier. You find yourself tired, exhausted and plainly out of the weather. The worst thing is this seems to happen when you need to be at the top of your game. </p>
<p>It doesn’t happen when you are shopping for <a href="http://www.rugshowplace.com">discount rugs</a> or making milk and cookies. However, just before you start writing the presentation that will change your life, your body shuts down. I don’t know if it is fear or just excitement. However, the results are that you are not able to do anything.</p>
<p>I can assure you that your friends will not help you at such times. You just need to stand up and get yourself motivated. This is the only time when I find myself saying “Tony, you are a great guy”.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There is no way that you can run any business without Good Customer Service.</p>
<p> There was a time when I thought that the way to make it to be a millionaire was to come up with a great idea. Over time, that has changed dramatically. I now believe that it all has to do with customer service.</p>
<p>The current business environment does not allow any company to own a monopoly on a product for too long. Even the WII now has a few competitors ready to take it on. </p>
<p>Since it is becoming more difficult to separate one company from another only through products and services, then something else is more important. My view is customer service and customer support.</p>
<p>Ever called customer support and never found an answer? Its like calling <a href="http://www.richardwillich.com/">richard willich</a> and never finding anyone.</p>
<p>That’s all I think about customer support.</p>
