What is Wealthy Today…..How is that defined.

Martha for the Masses…. Lorre for Luxury! The Problem: Today’s providers of retail goods and services have a severe problem – the large middle class market that once could be relied upon to support retailers has diminished in both size and purchasing power. In addition, the middle class that does remain is no longer content with generic products; they want brands that make a statement about themselves. For these reasons, today’s retailers must market, distribute, and sell in a manner that once… Continue

Marketing to the masses is very different than marketing to the classes.

Marketing to the masses is very different than marketing to the classes. Many of the new start up companies trying to reach this influential group come from a back ground of mass marketing like Google, yahoo, American Express, etc. They are use to big numbers of people. Luxury brands are not so interested in how many people see their ad but in how many qualified people see their ad. They are also not as interested in sales from an ad as the branding that takes place from an ad…..so the old pay b… Continue

Boresha Coffee – Ground Floor Opportunity

So what is the urgency about Boresha Coffee? It truly is GROUND FLOOR. But don’t just take my word for it… Three criteria have been developed that a network marketing company (or any new mlm) must meet in order to make it a most desirable opportunity. 1. The company should be at least 18 months old, as 90% of all network marketing companies that fail do so in the first 18 months. (Bo… Continue

pod3.tv video podcast: Focus on Business: Do turkeys vote for Christmas?

A business that trades for 10 days in a year and which produces one product which forms one part of one meal for one day of the year might be seen as a high risk business. But Tom Copas’ family business, based in Berkshire England, has been successfully providing a quality product into just such a market for many years.

The Copas family can trace their family farm back to 1698, which is pretty astonishing. As such they’ve seen it all. In this video podcast Tom Copas discusses… Continue
