Publish and sell other people’s manuscripts and information products. You would take on all the expenses, promotions, orders, etc. You would pay the authors an up-front fee or pay a royalty on every sale. Many authors want a publisher because all they want to do it write.
You can find free information products and bundle them together into one big package deal. Get permission from the owner. It could be reports, ebooks, ecourses, ezines, software, freeware, shareware, articles, informative web sites, web directories, etc.
Ask an expert, celebrity, performers, athlete, film star, etc. to allow you to manage an information based fan club for them. They could provide all the information about them you need and you would just send out the fan information.
You may ask people to compile examples of their materials in exchange for free publicity. For example, you could compile a bunch of successful sales letters into an information product. You would want the examples to be related to your target audience.
You would quickly write an information product by not proofreading, editing or spell checking it. You would just advertise as it an unedited information product.

Organic Tuscany near Pisa in a bio bed & breakfast
In one of the most enchanting areas of Tuscany, dominated by the famous Leaning Tower of Pisa, surrounded by the green hills of Chianni, there is the Bio B&B Podere La Sterza, a meeting point for all those who choose to spend a weekend or a longer holiday relaxing among nature and eating Tuscan organic cuisine.
Good Clean and Just, is Carlo Petrini’s motto. He is President of the Slowfood association of which Carlotta and Gigi are members and above all followers. Carlotta and Gigi have a long chef experience and now are the hosts of the charming farmhouse of Podere La Sterza, where there is a comfortable bio b&b at 0 km, meaning that all products, food and other, come from local firms.
Therefore, there is nothing better than to begin your holydays in the morning with a healthy breakfast, made of fresh seasonal fruit, homemade yogurt, cakes, bread and quiches made from stone ground flour that can still be found in this countryside thanks to millers of this area who like to keep this century-old tradition alive.
Always available are various kinds of cold meat and salami, as well as cheese from biodynamic agriculture, great to taste and also to look at!
Also unforgettable are the fresh eggs every morning from Ernesto's poultry pen, the friendly neighbour, an organic farmer who takes care of his land and animals with authentic passion and devotion.
The beauties of nature can also be found in the elegant bedrooms of the bed & breakfast in which the guests will find original and beneficial cushions for aromatherapy, made by Carlotta with the many herbs either cultivated or that grow spontaneously in this area.
And after a day spent visiting the nearby Volterra or the surrounding medieval hamlets of Miemo, Lajatico, Capannoli, Terricciola, Peccioli and Palaia... the guests can return to a typical Tuscan dinner in the food & wine club of Podere La Sterza, where also many vegan dishes are available for vegetarians.
Quality and 100% freshness among a natural environment are pleasures to be discovered and shared and that are offered to the guests of the Bio B&B until 30 June 2010 with a special weekend formula (Friday and and Saturday or Saturday and Sundays) at 40,00 Euro per person per night in a double room with bathroom.
Certainly the perfect occasion for a pleasant ecological holiday characterised by health, taste and art.

Is your site dated and unprofessional?
If your site looks dated and unprofessional you will not make any sales.
People form an impression of your business, and whether or not they will do business with you, within 30 seconds. If your website meets one or more of the following points (below), your web site needs an urgent overhaul:
- Your web site address is of the "fr.e.e variety" and is extra long
- Your site starts with the words "Please bookmark our site"
- Your hit counter is of the fr.e.e variety and after one year reads "You are the 27th visitor to this site."
- You don't have a way to analyze your web site traffic and determine where your traffic is coming from
- You've NEVER sold one thing at your web site either directly or indirectly
- You don't have a way of tracking leads or prospective customers when they visit your site
- There is no easy to find contact information anywhere on your pages
The secret is:
"To make sales and profits, you've got to earn people's trust, and this starts with giving them lots of ways to believe you".
If you've had your web site online for a year and not made one dollar, then you need to reassess what you are doing.

Make profits on the internet ** Terrific Resources:

Modern Advertising Methods

Wanna make profits on the internet?
Make profits on the internet is not so hard. Every scheme and method you can find to augment your sales would be very beneficial. It is common knowledge that without traffic we have no business. Like any business, without any customers you don’t get sales. Traffic represents all the people that gets a chance to see what you have to offer. The more people who see your products the more people there would be to buy them.
Nobody puts up an E-commerce site that doesn’t expect profit. We have a startup capital that needs to be regained. With a consistent traffic, we at least have a fighting chance to achieve that probability. Monetizing your traffic would optimize your chances of making the best out of it.
The best and most proven method to make profits on the internet is using advertising. The internet generates hundreds of thousands upon hundred of thousands of traffic everyday. Most of them are searching for something. While some are just looking for information there is also a good percentage that is looking for something that they need.
The internet has proven to be a very reliable source in finding what was deemed to be a very unsearchable product. The internet has made the world a smaller place; you can advertise a product from the depths of Istanbul and still find a buyer from the center of Philadelphia.
Generating traffic is not an easy task. You have to contend with a great number of sites to generate a good number of traffic flow. But if done successfully this could open up a Pandora’s Box of possibilities. One of the benefits is monetizing your traffic flow.
So, to get to the core of it the more traffic you generate the more likely you are considered as a desirable, desirable, in a sense that a good traffic flowing site is easily convertible to profit. Basically traffic equals profit. Advertising is the name of the game; with the good advertising scheme you can use your traffic flow to your advantage.
When you have good traffic you have a good number of potential customers, customers that are willing to pour money into your coffers. Other than that these are also traffic that can be redirected to sponsored links that are willing to pay you for a sizeable portion of the traffic that you have generated.
This scheme is called “pay-per-click”. With every click a visitor of your site makes on an advertised link you will be paid. The more traffic you generate and the more clicks that happens would spell to more profits.
Affiliate Programs
Another method of monetizing your traffic are affiliate programs. You can link up with other tried and tested sites and online companies and monetize your traffic by having a percentage of sales generated by traffic coming from your site.
The basic idea is, traffic generated from your site will go to another site that can offer a product that you do not carry. Many programs can keep track and make records of transactions that was made possible because of site linkage.
When purchases are made by customers that was led by your site to their site you get a percentage of that sale. Affiliate programs would give you the benefit of monetizing your traffic without the actual need of carrying or promoting a certain product.
There are so many ways and methods to monetize your traffic. All it takes is a bit of hard work and the desire to successfully launch a profit-earning site.

When florence is your next destination
Florence is the city of art and it is considered one of the most characteristic place of our peninsula. Capital of the region of Tuscany, has a population of around half a million inhabitants, spreads on the banks of the Arno, between the Adriatic and the Tyrrhenian seas, almost in the middle of the Italian peninsula.Site of a major artistic and cultural heritage, Florence is a city where the romance comes to life.Don’t you know what to visit in florence?I’ll show you:-The most famous square in Florence is Piazza della Signoria that we could consider a free sculputure exhibit and the political center of the city.Probably you’ve heard about this famous square even because there is a copy of the famous statue Michelangelo’s David.
- Then you can visit the Bell Tower in Duomo’s Square.
- Another famous attraction is Ponte Vecchio built in 1345, was Florence's first bridge across the Arno River and is the only surviving bridge from Florence's medieval days.
- Florence's most popular attraction is Duomo (cathedral), that was begun in 1296 and consecrated in 1436.
- The Uffizi area is famous for the well known Palazzo Strozzi, the biggest and most famous palace of Florence.Between the ancient Palazzo Antinori, Palazzo Rucellai and many suggestive churches such as Santa Trinita and San Pancrazio (now the Marino Marini Museum, an italian abstract artist), you’ll find the most interesting shopping area of the city.
- Florence's Archaeological Museum: housed in a palace with great Egyptian and Etruscan collections.
- Dante's House this is in the medieval section of the city and visiting a house of the famous Dante is amazing.
- The Church of San Lorenzo: it's the oldest religious structure in Florence. They say it was probably founded before year 400 and its art holdings include stuff by Donatello and Bronzino.Florence is famous for its exceptional artistic patrimony, glorious testimony to its secular civilization. Cimabue and Giotto, the fathers of Italian painting, lived here, along with Arnolfo and Andrea Pisano, reformists of architecture and sculpture; Brunelleschi, Donatello and Masaccio, founders of the Renaissance; Ghiberti and the Della Robbia; Filippo Lippi and l'Angelico;Every year thousands and thousands of tourists from all over the world, and of any age visit Florence but it’s well known that most of the accommodations in Florence are not affordable for anyone.That’s why it could be helpful to rent florence apartments.To rent an apartment in Florence is affordable especially for a group of people and it’s helpful because you have not time problems and you can go in and go out whenever you want.

Tbtoyl Marketing: Targeted traffic means massive profits
Every business needs customers, without them you wouldn’t have anyone to sell your products to. In the internet world traffic is the walk in customer. The more traffic you have the more people would be able to sell your products to.
But like any business that’s in every corner building or in the mall, not everyone that goes in will buy, but the greater of number that do come in to browse your merchandise, the greater number of people that will buy your products. It is a simple and known fact.
But, how do you get traffic, traffic large enough that could make a small percentage of eventual buyers enough to make a good profit. Many big companies generate traffic of tens of thousands a day and a measly ten to fifteen percent actually buys, but that small percentage is enough to provide them with good business.

Lorenzo il Magnifico award to Marina Abramovic
The Biennale Internazionale dell'Arte Contemporanea in Florence dedicated, as is customary, the "Lorenzo il Magnifico career " award an international recognition of contemporary artistic culture to those particularly outstanding and that still continue to stand by their work.
The VII Biennale Internazionale dell'Arte Contemporanea of Florence awards the "Lorenzo il Magnifico career " award to Marina Abramovic, one of the most important and interesting contemporary performers.
Of Yugoslav origin, active from the 1970s with a series of memorable performances, in which the artist's body is the matter and central part of the work of her research on the limits of human physicality, Marina Abramovic, the experiences through violence to the point of putting her own body at risk with the presence and use of dangerous items including "On the table there are seventy-two objects that can be used at will on me. I am the object "(Studio Morra, Naples, 1974), truly involving her public, for example, in the famous performance weightlessness (Galleria d'Arte Moderna, Bologna, 1977), made with the German artist Ulay ( Uwe Laysiepen), with whom she has an artistic partnership since 1976 and from which it split in 1989 upon completion of their performance 'Great Wall Walk': their meeting in the middle of the Great Wall of China, 2000 kilometers long, after a journey that lasted ninety days.
Through the testing of physical and psychological limits of her existence, Marina Abramovic withstands pain, exhaustion, fear and danger in seeking conversion of their emotional and spiritual sphere.
Marina Abramovic has presented and presents her work with images, sounds and video in numerous solo and group exhibitions in Europe and the United States.
Since 1991 she has taught in Germany at the Hochschule für Bildende Künste Braunschweig. In 1997 the XLVII Venice Biennale has received the Golden Lion for 'Balkan Baroque', eight hour performance, during which Marina Abramovic cleans one hundred cow femurs, an action that becomes the symbol to cancel the atrocities that her countrymen have committed in ethnic conflicts, the Balkan in the 90s.
This work, together with the performances 'The Hero' (2001), 'Count On', 'Nude with Skeleton' (2003) and 'Balkan Erotic Epic' (2005), was part of her exhibition entitled "Balkan Epic" held Hangar Bicocca in Milan in 2006.
In 2003 Marina Abramovic received the New York Dance and Performance Award The Bessies for 'The House with Ocean View' a twelve-day performance at Sean Kelly Gallery in New York.
In 2005 she presented at the Guggenheim Museum in New York a series of performances entitled 'Seven Easy Pieces'.
The works of Marina Abramovic are present in the most important contemporary art collections in the world.

Interferences, Art and the Hospital: the spaces between action and reaction
Experiences from the Meyer Hospital Florence, Marseilles and Manchester.
International conference
Saturday 28 November, 9am-6pm
at the Meyer Paediatric Hospital, Viale Pieraccini 24, Florence, Italy
On Saturday 28 November, the international conference "Interferences, Art and the Hospital" will take place at the Meyer Paediatric Hospital of Florence from 9am to 6pm.
The conference is entitled "Interferences" because art in a hospital setting stands out and stimulates both on a psychological and on a social level, of who breathes the anxiety and the fears of the environment of a paediatric hospital. The Meyer hospital of Florence bears testimony to this, having art integrated into the new hospital complex of Villa Ognissanti. Works that colour the areas and break up spaces and fill in time, in the wards, clinic waiting rooms, corridors, infiltrating into the garden, the stairwells, filling the voids of the large skylights, offering itself as a stimulus in the relationships between the workers, the young patients and their families. The experience of the Florentine hospital is not intended to be art therapy or a Disney scenario, but rather an art that "stimulates reactions and relations between those who share it."
Amongst the speakers at this international conference, organized by the Regione Toscana (Department of Culture, Department for the Right to Health) and the Meyer Foundation, are the semiologist Omar Calabrese and Peter Scher, from the Arts of Health from the Faculty of Health Art and Design at the University of Manchester. The most important international experiences will be presented, such as a project for the Hospital of Marseilles by Michelangelo Pistoletto, creator of Cittadellarte, who will be present with a contribution. The conference, which will begin with opening remarks by Tommaso Langiano, President of the Meyer Foundation, aims to build a path so that the "Art at the Meyer laboratory" and what has been achieved elsewhere, can be replicated in other hospitals. Art at the Meyer is not mere decoration but is an interaction with the children, even in the many laboratories active in the Toy Library.
In particular, to outline the planning capacity with the declared intention of making it possible in other hospital contexts, the conference Interferences, will be divided in two: in the morning the theme will reflect what has been achieved to date. There will be a whole session dedicated to artistic experiences already activated reflecting both national and European realities, according to a holistic view of the Hospital, which in turn should reflect a multiplicity of visions and perceptions, to contain and to recall from elements of everyday life to the fantastic and to the imaginary. Paolo Cocchi Councillor of Culture for the Regione Toscana (Tuscan Region) will speak in the morning.
In the afternoon, importance will be given to "The practice of doing", to define the possible strategies for development and for consolidation. A round table is planned, to analyse the tools and levers used to activate other art experiences in the hospital setting; in occasion of the project proposed by the Regione Toscana for the construction of four new hospitals, where humanization and environmental aspects will run parallel to the design of the hospitals.
At the end of the conference at 6pm, ten panels inspired by the first book of Pinocchio by Fabio De Poli and made by the children's crèche, Noé in Florence, will be presented.
How to participate.
Registration is necessary and should be completed via the web at www.meyer.it/interferenze
There will be a coffee break at the opening (9am) and closing (6pm) of the conference, offered by the Meyer Foundation
The experience of the Meyer Hospital.
The Paediatric Hospital of Florence, within the context of Meyer Art, a project desired and supported by the Meyer Foundation, houses works of art by artists such as Esther Albardanè, Altan, Dario Bartolini, Carlo Cantini, Sara Carlini, Fabio De Poli, Francesco Fagnani, Gianni Fanello, Sophie Fatus, Paolo Favi, Simone Frasca, Paolo Guidotti, Janet Mullarney, Daniele Nannini, Giovanni Pecchioli, Peppe Perone, Andrea Rauch (Artistic Director), Guido Scarabattolo and Sergio Traquandi.

Easy ways to make profits: some good ideas
If you search a good response to the popular question "Easy ways to make profits", then you can use these business ideas:
Why not to ask experts to speak at your teleseminar? The speaker often seeks to place their products for sale. That may be sufficient for their time and fee. If you have approval, you may record that seminar for later use. Possibly to be used as a bonus if with good content. At the beginning, it may be required to give the large share of fees collected from attendees to the speaker.
You ask recognized experts to speak at your mastermind event. A mastermind event is people getting together brainstorming and sharing ideas. Since there is a sharing, best to do some work in advance to make sure all are qualified and able to contribute. Not a place for wallflowers or only listeners. An active flow is required. An excellent thing for archiving but, again, it requires approval from all contributing.
You can find a good location and ask speakers and experts to speak at the seminar. . A teleseminar is manly were people sit and listen to a bunch of speakers. They sometimes take questions at the end. You could also give them the first chance to promote the seminar for a big percentage of the profits. You could also record it a sell it as a audio or video.
You ask coaches and experts to help at your workshop. A workshop is mainly getting one-on-one, how-to help. This is like the seminar approach. Since it involves more direct contact, the audience may be smaller.
A larger fee would be charged too. A bit harder to sell after-the-fact items since it is usually more visual. A video would be best but requires a considerable outlay for you. Definitely get approval from the speaker!

The Board of Directors of Mediaset, met today under the Chairmanship of Fedele
Confalonieri, to approve the company’s quarterly report to 30 September 2009.
Also during the third quarter of this year the Group’s results continued to be affected,
particularly in Spain, by the deep recession in the world economy. A generalised
difficulty that has led to a marked fall in advertising investments in the two countries in
which the Mediaset Group operates.
In this context, the Group in Italy was nevertheless able to contain the fall in
advertising revenues compared with its competitors, while consolidating its market
share. In terms of ratings, leadership was confirmed in the commercial target of
reference and the absolute primacy of Canale 5 across the entire TV audience in the
current autumn guarantee period.
Moreover, strenuous efforts to control TV costs and the excellent performance of
Mediaset Premium have made it possible to significantly mitigate, above all in Italy,
the negative impact on margins created by the reduction in advertising revenue.

MEDIASET GROUP: CONSOLIDATED RESULTS
Performance in the first nine months of 2009 can be summarised as follows:
• the Mediaset Group’s consolidated net revenues amounted to €2,652.1 million a
reduction of 11.4% on the €2,993.9 million of the first nine months of 2008.
• the Group’s EBIT came to €380.9 million, compared with €705.2 million in the first
nine months of the previous year.
• operating profitability was 14.4%, compared with 23.6% in the first nine months
of 2008.
• profit before taxation and that attributable to third-party shareholders, amounted
to €329,4 million compared with €609.0 million to 30 September 2008.
• net profit attributable to the Group came to €184.2 million, compared with the
€355.8 million of the first nine months of the previous year.
• the Group’s net financial position went from -€1,371.7 million on 31 December
2008 to -€1,601.5 million on 30 September 2009.
• in the first nine months of the year net cash generation amounted to €300.3
million compared with €548.4 million in the first nine months of the previous year.
It should be noted that, following the partnership agreement finalised on 30 June 2009 between RTI SpA and the
private equity fund 21 Partner, the Mediaset Group’s stake in Medusa Cinema SpA and Mesusa Multicinema SpA
(businesses that in the first nine months of 2008 generated revenues of €35.6 million) has gone from 100% to 49%.
Consequently the consolidated financial statements, both for the first half of 2008 and the first half of 2009 have
been reclassified to show separately the contribution of these businesses and the economic impact of the
operation.
A BREAKDOWN OF RESULTS BY GEOGRAPHIC AREA
Italy
• In the first nine months of 2009 consolidated net revenues amounted to
€2,220.7 million, a fall of 1.7% on the €2,259.5 million of the same period of the
previous year. In the third quarter revenues grew by 2.5% thanks to the excellent
performance of Mediaset Premium and a combination of other non-television
activities (including Mediashopping and film distribution).
gross television advertising revenues came to €1,823.0 million, a fall of 10.8%
on the €2.043,2 million of the first nine months of 2008. This result highlights the
progressive improvement achieved during the second and third quarters. In
particular, in the third quarter revenues recorded a more limited fall of -7%.

According to Nielsen data for the first nine months of the year, the trend in
advertising sales for Mediaset channels was markedly better that the overall trend
in the advertising market as a whole (-18.4%) and the television advertising
market (-17.4%), both net of Mediaset’s contribution.
Mediaset Premium revenues: total revenues generated by Mediaset Premium
came to €379.9 million, compared with €269.5 million in the first nine months of
2008 (+41.0%). Revenues from the characteristic business (sale of cards,
recharges and Easy Pay) were up by 63.6%.
Active cards as of 30 September 2009 totalled around 2.9 million, compared with
around 2.5 million in the same period of the previous year. A more than brilliant
achievement, given that by 30 June 2009 more than 2 million Premium cards has
expired.
• EBIT came to €298.4 million, compared with the €380.9 million of the first nine
months of 2008, a reduction of 21.7%.
• Total television costs were down by 3.7% compared with the first nine months of
2008. In the third quarter there was a reduction of 5.9% compared with the same
period of last year. This result confirms the scrupulous efficiency policy that
reduces costs without having a negative impact of the appeal of the schedule or
on the ratings of the Mediaset channels.
• net profit amounted to €156.0 million, compared with €248.5 million for the same
period of the previous year.
TV ratings: in the first nine months of the year Mediaset channels confirmed their
national leadership in all the time bands among viewers in the 15 to 64 year-old age
range (the commercial target). During the period, Mediaset recorded a 41.4% share
in prime time and 41.6% in the 24 hours.
Canale 5 is Italy’s most popular channel in the commercial target, both in prime time
(23.5%) and in the 24 hours (22.3%). And at 20.8%, the channel confirmed its
position as the leading channel in the 24 hours during the guarantee period (6
September – 9 November 2009).
Spagna
• In the first nine months of 2009 consolidated net revenues generated by the
Telecinco Group came to €432,2 million, compared with €734.9 million in the
same period of the previous year. This result was obviously due to the impact of
the unfavourable trading and financial climate, at both a national and international
level, which in Spain has been particularly dramatic.
• Despite this difficult background, there was a reduction in total costs of 14.8%
compared with the same period of the previous year. This trend was also affected
by the use of risk provisions booked in the first half of the year. Net of these
4
measures, the reduction was of 7.8%, thanks to rigorous actions aimed at
containing both scheduling and management costs.
• EBIT for the period came to €82.5 million, compared to €324.3 million in 2008.
• Operating profitability was 19.1% (44.1% in the first nine months of 2008).
• Pre-tax profit came to €58.5 million, compared with €292.4 million the previous
year.
• Net profit amounted to €62,2 million compared with €228.4 million for the first
nine months of 2008.
• TV ratings: Telecinco consolidated its position as Spain’s absolute leader with a
prime time share of 16.8%.

FORECAST FOR THE FULL YEAR
Despite what is expected to be a slight improvement in the short term, the economic
scenario, as far as advertising investments are concerned in both Italy and Spain, is
expected to remain extremely difficult for the remainder of the year.
In Italy, at the end of the first ten months of the year, gross advertising revenues for
Mediaset channels had recorded a fall of 10.2%, compared with the -10.8% recorded
at the end of nine months.
In the same period, total advertising sales, in other words including other media sold in
concession by the Group, recorded a fall of 9.6% (-10.3% after nine months).
In line with the trends recorded in the second and third quarters, current evidence
suggests that advertising sales in the last two months of 2009, which will be compared
to the most critical period of the previous year, will continue to show an improving
trend compared with the previous nine months of the year.
In the light of such trends, the results at the end of the first nine months, despite
continued efforts to control television costs in recent months, at year end the Group is
expected to post operating and consolidated net profits markedly lower than those of
the previous year.
The executive responsible for the preparation of the Mediaset S.p.A. accounts,
Andrea Goretti, declares that, as per para. 2 art. 154-bis, of the Single Finance Bill,that the accounting information contained in this press release corresponds to that contained in the company’s books.
