Welcome Small Business Owners

I have designed this blog with the small business owner in mind. I know that we all have budgets to work within and I want to help each and every business out there (who wants my help) to find a way to market their business effectively , efficiently, and inexpensively!

You will find that I will be posting free methods to use for marketing your business. I will be posting low-cost methods to use for marketing your business, but I will not post methods that are outrageously priced. Because I feel most of the time you can accomplish your marketing goals without spending a lot of money.

I will also be telling you about the different services that I offer to my clients and all of which are at reasonable rates. My specialty is small business marketing and virtual assistance. I will talk about each of my services individually to give you an idea of what it is that I do for my customers/clients.

Exciting Announcement!

Due to the fact that I have had such a productive and wonderful September with my new Virtual Assistant Service that I have added to Lynn Marketing Concepts, I would like to announce the following:

I am offering 2 very special deals for the month of October for NEW Businesses who wish to take advantage of these offers:

1.)  20% off the total cost of a Retainer Package of Virtual Services from Lynn Marketing Concepts
(Our monthly retainer packages start as low as $225 REG. but for October will be only $168 !) This is a huge bargain and will only be offered until October 1st or until I reach my limit for new clients !  So be sure and contact me now to discuss your Virtual Assistance needs before this special is over, and before my calender gets too full!  I have a feeling this won't last long!)

2.) Purchase 3 Hours of Virtual Assistance and Receive 1 Free Hour to use that same month or "bank" for the next month! 
(This offer is good for up to 5 FREE Hours, by purchasing a block of 15 Hours of Virtual Assistance.)

**Virtual Assistance Monthly Retainer Packages DO NOT Roll Over Into The Next Month, So Be Sure to Only Purchase the Package you are comfortable with and sure that you will USE during that particular month of purchase!**

** The Buy 3 Hours Get 1 Hour Free offer is an offer where you CAN roll ONLY your FREE Hours to the following month.  You MUST USE the Purchased Hours within the month you bought them, but the FREE hours you accumulate CAN be used in the following month!  (Until you get a feel for just how much assistance you need, I always suggest buying blocks of time instead of the monthly retainer packages.  Once you KNOW how much of an ASSET a Virtual Assistant can be, and just what we can do for you as a business owner and for your company, you will definitely want to take advantage of the Monthly Retainer Packages available.  These packages are set up to save our clients money!  It is what keeps them coming back!!)

Please feel free to pass, email, or blog this offer to your friends, business associates, family members or anyone you know who might find this useful and/or helpful.  I do love referrals and reward them too!
I have a great referral program set up through Lynn Marketing Concepts right now, if you would like more information on this or any services mentioned , please email me at lynnmarketingconcepts@gmail.com

Happy Marketing,
Julie

Nasal Aspirator, baby safety - Little Urbanites

Nasal Aspirator, baby safety - Little Urbanites

This is one of the "coolest" baby products I have seen in a while.....my how things have changed since my daughter was born 11 years ago....all I had was one of those cheapy manual "sucker" bulbs, this would have been so handy!

I just had to share this new find with you all, I normally don't do this type of sharing but I couldn't resist since I find that gadgets and baby items have changed so much since my daughter was born. It just seems like there are so many more items that are useful and would make having and caring for a baby easier these days as opposed to 10 years ago.

The world changes so fast!

Wanted to Share a New Website!

I came upon a new website and wanted to share it with everyone, I think I started to send out a few invitations and then thought I would just post it here instead:

Here is a brief overview.....

What Is Listia?

Listia is a new kind of auction site where you bid on other people's stuff using credits instead of real money. We make it easy for users to get rid of stuff they don't need anymore and find stuff they want for free. Listia is a marketplace where people enjoy giving and getting items for free.

Every user gets 100 free credits after signing up and listing an item. The more popular your listing is, the more credits your auction will go for. You bid credits for things you want. So each thing goes to the person who wants it most! Getting more credits is easy, fun and most importantly, costs nothing!

Sign up Now with Listia
 
Let me know if you like it!
