Make a difference in a childs life... When you decide to sell your brain on the Internet.
Make a difference in a childs life... When you decide to sell your brain on the Internet.
For Immediate Release.
Victoria, Australia, August 27, 2000 -- Review of an ebook marketers Web site that getting lots of attention. www.1website1.com
It is quite rare these days to come across a Web site that is selling something, yet at the same time is donating the proceeds to a worthy cause.
One such site belongs to Australian author Ricky Higgs.
The author has written a book (available as a CD-ROM and electronic download as well) that shows people how to earn an income from the Internet in just 14 days. Nothing new here considering the abundance of How to" money making ebooks and reports on the Web today. However, what I found refreshing, was his upfront headline and pictures on his homepage.
Sell your brain on the Net and make a difference in a childs life".
Wedged between a picture showing the front cover of his book and a young Zimbabwe Boy holding a puppy dog.
Beneath the headline it reads; When you buy Rickys ebook a donation is made to World Vision.... Life is about choices... This choice is about life".
A link is also provided to World Vision under the descriptive paragraph of who this little boy is and how his parents were killed by rebel soldiers who raided his village.
Has this charitable author and wise marketer found a way to help those people whose greed and ambition for making money is their priority and at the same time help those who need the money the most... The less fortunate children of the World?
Ricky Higgs reminds me of a modern day Robin Hood". Taking from the rich and giving to the poor!
I mentioned my visit to Rickys site to some well known online marketers to get their opinion. From my conversations, I found out that Ricky Higgs was starting to get some serious traffic to his site and causing quite a controversy.
www. Trickreport.com (A site that lists the 25 top business how to" sites based on traffic it sends to it) had Rickys Website ranked in the number two position last week. The site description reads; Make a difference in a childs life, join Ricky Higgs on new forum". When you scroll down the list of ranked sites, it certainly stands out as being something different and unique from all the other traditionally titled sites on business, marketing and money making. This out of place" description instantly draws your attention and almost forces you to click the link to satisfy your curiosity.
On further investigation of his site, reading through his feedback page and visiting his discussion forum, one soon realizes this author is a helpful sort.
He gives plenty of free advice, and strikes you as a very logical thinker.
Even his self-promotional copy on his book is not the usual over sell" you often find on many other money making sites.
This generous and unselfish marketer provides a win-win" situation for both those interested in making money and those who never had any.
The Ricky Higgs website is one site I have bookmarked in my favorites and one I highly recommend you take a look at.
If more businesses and e-commerce websites were to follow Rickys Robin Hood strategy of giving some back" to those who need it most.... The world would definitely be a better place!
