Massive Corporate Publicity That Will Transform Your Company Overnight!

March 3rd, 2010 James Scott No comments

We get calls all day, every day from companies that talk about ‘wanting’ real corporate publicity that will transform their company but few have the stomach for what it really takes and even fewer have the financial dedication it takes to obliterate their competition and take their rightful place at the top of the food chain.

Of course it’s important to cater to the traditional media (TV, radio, newspaper, industry journals, etc) but the genre of publicity that wins every time is viral publicity consisting of video, social and news bookmarks, article submissions, press release submissions and photo/logo sharing sites. The reality is online publicity is where you’re going to completely annihilate your competitors and claim your rightful position.

When you take into consideration the ultra powerful medium and stealth of viral publicity, all other promotional genres cower in comparison. Online your pre public or post public company will claim instant viewers and a cult-like following that TV and radio can’t even remotely compare. Billions of searches take place every day and it is the viral publicists job to do what SEO and traditional publicists can’t do and that is get solid search engine ranking while simultaneously bringing in powerful results that are targeted and strategically placed.

Forget pay per click, it’s a waste of your time. crush everything in your path with viral publicity that claims power positions on the natural search results on all search engines. You must have a solid combination of mediums at use to take control of targeted keywords and industry genres.

So the next time you tell your self-proclaimed publicist or seo agent that you need publicity that will claim your position and deliver virtually instantaneous results for your company, you’ll understand why there is silence on the other end of the line…because they have no clue as to what it takes to get serious results that will rip and shred everything in your path. The powerful combination of viral publicity and massive exposure will force-feed your concept to the willing masses who are pleading with a company in your industry to step up and spoon-feed the very info that your company is offering.

Stop wasting time and money with so called ’solutions’ that don’t work. You need a publicist, investor relations specialist and SEO demigod that will take you by the hand and pave a way for your company to succeed.

Candlestick Charting Patterns- The Hammer, the Hanging Man and the Spinning Top!

March 3rd, 2010 Ahmad Hassam No comments

There are many candlstick patterns that you can master. Candlestick patterns can be highly profitable trading signals. However, some patterns appear frequently and can be easily spotted. Hanging Man and the Hammer are the two among them. Both are different. Hanging Man is bearish while the Hammer is bullish.

How to spot the Hanging Man and the Hammer? These candlestick patterns are easy to spot on the chart. When you spot a very small candle body accompanied by a pretty long wick on the bottom, it is a Hanging Man if it appears at the top of the uptrend and it is a Hammer if it appears at the bottom of the downtrend.

Now suppose, you find the Hammer or the Hanging Man. What you need is to look for the confirmation the next day! Now, in most of the cases, you will also find a small wick on the top of the candle body.

Now suppose, you think that you have spotted the Hanging Man in an uptrend. Wait for the confirmation the next day with the opening price. If the opening price on the next day is less than the previous day’s close, you have a true Hanging Man. If not, then that was not a true Hanging Man.

Similarly suppose, you think that you have correctly spotted the Hammer in a downtrend. A Hammer should have a very small candle body with a long wick at the bottom. You should confirm this with the opening price on the next day. If the opening price is higher than the closing price the previous day, you have a true Hammer. If the opening price is not higher than the closing price the last day, it is not a true Hammer!

Whenever, you trade candlestick patterns, first spot them correctly than wait for the confirmation on the following day. The best chart for these candlestick patterns is the daily chart. Once, you get the confirmation, trade these patterns. They can be highly profitable. But in case, you don’t get the confirmation the next day with the price action, simply ignore the pattern as not true.

Spinning Top is a signal that the battle between the bulls and the bears ended in a draw. It will start next day again with ony side giving in. What this means is that an explosive move in the price action can take place the following day. Spinning Top is just like the Hanging Man and the Hammer.

How to identify a SPINNING TOP? A Spinning Top has a very small candle body in the middle with two equal wicks on the top and the bottom. This pattern appears very frequently in the daily charts and can be highly profitable if spotted correctly.

Polo Tees For Advertising

March 2nd, 2010 Kenneth Randolph No comments

Tailoring items for promotional uses is all about making clothing items that meet the demands of the business. These businesses are different and separate from clothing businesses that tailor clothes and suits for the purpose of being sold in stores. Business advertising demands a lot of work & concentration on creating products that will represent the business brand, logo, and name. A large number of these items are usually made.

Producing a large volume of advertising items ensures that a large number of target customers will notice your business. The promotional technique that can guarantee this way of promoting products is TV commercials. Yet, TV commercial is too expensive. Not all promotional business can offer this kind of luxury.

Advertising businesses do a demographic study to find out if people are utilising your product. They also observe what people utilise in their daily lives. These things will help them to make estimations that will be helpful in promoting a business. They will look for inexpensive apparel and put your business logo & name on it.

Promotional clothing is an effective means of letting people recognize your business since clothing is used by everyone and is industry specific. It can also be easily designed.

Polo tees are one of the best promotional clothing utilised by businesses. These polo tees are customized for business uses. Polo tees & apparels are believed as traveling advertisement. A person who wears polo tees, with your business name and logo, and travels around the town is the same as promoting your business to all people who can see your business name or logo.

Polo tees can also personalised for your campaigns . Polo tees can also be handed as gifts for employees, uniforms for sports organisations, and other campaigns .

School teams and clubs also utilise polo tees where everyone is very proud to wear their personalised shirt.

Against all odds... Unfortunately Leo is out of the game: After a raise with pocket 55 he met his set on the flop. However, his opponent was chasing his flush draw and got lucky on the river. We give it up for Leo who played a very good tournament.

Cristiano is currently at very short stack with 7,000 chips - hang in buddy!

Koen holds 35,000 chips and Steven is also still around start stack.

Over the day we have lost sight of Javier and.... look at that: he was sneaking up being our Team Chipleader with currently 80,000 which is nearly double average. Great!

One more level to go before we will call it a day for today!
