Why You Should Never Wear Underwear with Holes and What That Means For Your Small Business
The other day I was reminded on some advice I was once given by a friend back in high school to never wear old, worn out underwear with holes.
Why? Because you never know when you’re going to (get your mind out of the gutter) get in an accident or experience some horrible health issue that results in calling 911.
Just think of it my friend told me, “You get in a horrible car wreck, a bunch of cute firemen come to your rescue, and for some reason your clothes have to be cut off, or they are badly ripped. Do you really want them or anyone to see you in gross, old underwear? No way! You want them to see you in sexy underwear, so even at your worst, you look great!”

Better Landing Page Results: 3 Tips to Convert More Prospects into Customers
Here are three quick tips to improve your landing page and help you convert more prospects into customers:
1. Know Your Target Market
Don’t just throw up a landing page and hope the right people see it and like what you have to say. You need to spend some time doing research on your target market. Find out what they want, what they need, what problems they have that you can solve, and what would make their life easier, etc. Look at what your ideal client’s income is, where they live, what their hobbies are, what they dream about, what values they hold, and where they shop, etc.
Once you know the answers to these questions and you truly understand your ideal customer, you can tailor your landing page design and content to speak directly to them. By focusing in on your target market, you have more power and impact on creating interest, evoking emotion, and compelling action.
