Writing emails has become a regular routine for millions around the world. It is a common, easy, cheap and practical way to communicate, particularly for business communication.
La escritura de correos electrónicos se ha hecho una rutina regular para millones alrededor del mundo. Esto es un modo común, fácil, barato y práctico de comunicarse, en particular para la comunicación comercial.

But whilst writing an ordinary email may be easy, creating a professionally constructed electronic message requires a bit more attention. Do you rate yourself as an effective and professional email writer? Following are some guidelines to assist you construct more professional emails.
Pero escribiendo un correo electrónico ordinario puede ser fácil, creando un mensaje electrónico profesionalmente construido requiere un poco más atención. ¿Usted precio usted mismo como un escritor de correo electrónico eficaz y profesional? Lo siguiente es algunas pautas para asistirle a construir más correos electrónicos profesionales.

Subject Line/Línea Sustancial

The starting point of a good email is the subject line. In a common office, people may receive dozens of emails a day: eZines, notifications, SPAM, personal messages and work-related content.
El punto de partida de un correo electrónico bueno es la línea sustancial. En una oficina común, la gente puede recibir docenas de correos electrónicos un día: eZines, notificaciones, SPAM, mensajes personales y contenido relacionado con el trabajo.

Within the work-related context, it's common that emails get rated according to the sender (whether it's from a boss or a subordinate, for example) and the subject line. Emails that have generic and uninteresting subject lines will likely be the last to be opened and/or replied, or simply deleted.
Dentro del contexto relacionado con el trabajo, es común que los correos electrónicos son tasados según el remitente (si es de un jefe o un subordinado, por ejemplo) y la línea sustancial. Los correos electrónicos que tienen líneas sustanciales genéricas e indiferentes serán probablemente el último para ser abierto y/o contestado, o simplemente suprimido.

To write an effective subject line, you need to communicate the importance of the email from the receivers perspective (not what's important to you). The reader should be able to quickly acknowledge what it's about and how he or she will respond. Avoid vague subject lines. Also avoid writing offensive content or using exclamation marks on subject lines as they may be blocked by email filters.
Para escribir una línea sustancial eficaz, usted tiene que comunicar la importancia del correo electrónico de la perspectiva de receptores (no lo que es importante para usted). El lector debería ser capaz de reconocer rápidamente sobre qué es y como él o ella responderán. Evite líneas sustanciales vagas. También evite escribir el contenido ofensivo o usar signos de admiración en líneas sustanciales cuando ellos pueden ser bloqueados por filtros de correo electrónico.

Strucuture and Formatting/Estructura y Formateo

If you are sending an email with multiple messages or perspectives, you must think about how you will structure them. Most people read emails quickly and may reply to them without reading all the content.
Si usted envía un correo electrónico con mensajes múltiples o perspectivas, usted debe pensar en como usted los estructurará. La mayor parte de personas leen correos electrónicos rápidamente y pueden contestarles sin leer todo el contenido.

To avoid points being missed, make sure the structure of your email is concise, allowing your reader to easily see what they need to before they click "reply" or simply close the message. A strong leading topic sentence or introduction will often overcome this problem.
Para evitar puntos perdidos, asegúrese que la estructura de su correo electrónico es concisa, permitiendo a su lector ver fácilmente lo que ellos necesitan a antes de que ellos hagan clic "la respuesta" o simplemente cierren el mensaje. Una oración de tema principal fuerte o la introducción a menudo vencerán este problema.

Language and Intention/Lengua e Intención

Keep your language readable from both semantic and formatting perspectives. Use standard spelling and capitalization, avoid all-caps ("online, all-caps means shouting") and avoid jargon.
Guarde su lengua legible tanto de perspectivas semánticas como de que formatean. Use la ortografía estándar y la capitalización, evite todo-gorras ("en línea, gritos de medios de todo-gorras") y evite la jerga.

Be personal. If you are writing to a person or company, identify the name of the receiver(s) and direct the message to them. Many people have an aversion to receiving impersonal "To Whom It May Concern" messages, particularly if it's sent with a commercial objective.
Esté el personal. Si usted escribe a una persona o compañía, identifica el nombre del receptor (es) y les dirige el mensaje. Muchas personas odian a la recepción impersonales "a Quien corresponda" mensajes, en particular si es enviado con un objetivo comercial.

Be kind. Avoid being aggressive or using excessive criticism. If you are feeling emotional, take a break and write later. With the ease of writing emails, many people get carried away in a message when they are frustrated or emotional - only to regret it later.
Esté amable. Evite ser agresivo o usar la crítica excesiva. Si usted se siente emocional, descansa un rato y escribe más tarde. Con la facilidad de escribir correos electrónicos, muchas personas son llevadas en un mensaje cuando ellos son frustrados o emocional - sólo para lamentarlo más tarde.

Be formal. Using a "smilie" face or abbreviations such as "LOL" is not deemed appropriate in a professional email. Your level of formality will depend on the context of the message and the person receiving it: write accordingly.
Esté formal. La utilización de una cara de "smilie" o abreviaturas como "LOL" no es juzgada apropiada en un correo electrónico profesional. Su nivel de la formalidad dependerá del contexto del mensaje y la persona que lo recibe: escriba en consecuencia.

Attachments/Accesorio

Only attach documents to emails if it's strictly necessary. Attachments can be nuisances in messages. They not only increase the likelihood of a virus coming with the email; but also require more download time and take up space on other people's computers.
Sólo ate documentos a correos electrónicos si es estrictamente necesario. Los accesorios pueden ser fastidios en mensajes. Ellos no sólo aumentan la probabilidad de un virus que viene con el correo electrónico; sino también requiera más tiempo de telecarga y tome el espacio en las computadoras de otra gente.

If you can simply copy and paste the content of the attachment with the regular email message, use this option. Bear in mind that emails with attachment can also be blocked by SPAM filters.
Si usted puede copiar simplemente y pegar el contenido del accesorio con el mensaje de correo electrónico regular, usar esta opción. Tenga en cuenta que los correos electrónicos con el accesorio también pueden ser bloqueados por filtros de SPAM.

Sending Rules/Envío de Reglas

This is the ABC of professional emailing. When sending a message to large groups, use the "BCC" function instead of "CC" so that receivers are not be able to view other people's email addresses.
This is particularly important when sending mailouts with personalised mail merged messages (when you want your reader to have the impression this email was tailored and send only to him or her).
Este es el ABECÉ del envío por correo electrónico profesional. Enviando a un mensaje a grupos grandes, use la función de "BCC" en vez "de CENTRIMETROS CÚBICOS" de modo que los receptores no sean ser capaces de ver las direcciones de correo electrónico de otra gente.
Este es en particular importante enviando mailouts con el correo personalizado combinó mensajes (cuando usted quiere que su lector tenga la impresión este correo electrónico fue adaptado y enviarle sólo o ella).


Avoid the "reply all" function. Many people have got into major problems simply because they have failed to observe this. One click can have dire consequences.
Evite "la respuesta toda" la función. Muchas personas tienen en problemas principales simplemente porque ellos han dejado de observar este. Un chasquido puede tener consecuencias extremas.

Finally, avoid taking too long before replying to an email; especially if the message was in an urgent tone. If you are unable to attend to the message anytime soon, you can write a courteous message such as "I am busy at the moment, but I will reply as soon as possible."
Finalmente, evite tomar también mucho antes de contestar a un correo electrónico; sobre todo si el mensaje estaba en un tono urgente. Si usted es incapaz de ocuparse del mensaje en cualquier momento pronto, usted puede escribir un mensaje cortés como "estoy ocupado en este momento, pero contestaré cuanto antes."

Part Time Business Ideas that Work

By: Nazir Daud

A couple of friends of mine needed to generate a little extra income on top of their wages. They were both into keep fit and enjoyed working out. They decided to supplement their income by becoming part time fitness instructors.

They had to do a course which lasted less then six months and taught them the basics of keep fit. They both enjoyed doing the course and made some great friends along the way.

The money is good and they keep fit at the same time! One teaches spinning on the stationary bikes whilst the other does aerobics classes. They both benefit from free membership in the gym they teach in…

If you are good with your hands and into DIY then why not become a part time handy man? Busy people now a days just never get round to fixing that faulty cupboard… and the money that they are willing to pay for odd jobs is not that bad either for a couple of hours work.

Start up costs are very low as long as you have the full range of basic tools. Most people who start out working part time find that this can easily turn into a full time occupation!

Do you enjoy gardening? This is a great little earner if you do not mind getting your hands dirty… especially enjoyable if you find someone rich with a beautiful garden! The only problem with this business is that work dies away in the winter months.

A mobile car wash can be a nice earner and if you buy all the equipment it can be very easy to clean a large number of cars in a short time. Pick one or two street and whiz around a couple of times a week.

You will need to buy a van with some specialist tools and carry your own water on board. Starts up costs are higher than other part time businesses and therefore this business demands a lot more careful planning.

A photography business can be run from home and it is easy to make a decent income. Digital cameras are so good now that you do not even need a dark room to process your pictures. Start of with the usual weddings and birthday parties. Take pictures of all the landmarks in your city.

More websites are being created every day and all of them need some images. Speak to web designers and take pictures to their specifications. Online networks are expanding rapidly and people need portrait pictures. Demand for head and shoulders shots is massive.

The great thing about the photography business is that you can take pictures all the time. You do not have to be in work mode to snap away! It is easy to build a huge collection of images and showcase your work on a website. Start up costs are now very low and this business can become extremely lucrative once you have built up a collection of images.

Do you have any ideas for a part time business that can help to provide additional cash flow for people struggling to pay the bills?

Newsletter Issue: Publish Your Own eZine Without A Website

Publishing an eZine without a website is certainly possible since you really only need to be able to send your newsletter to your readers using email. However, most publishers like to post the past issues of the newsletters and this is usually done on a website. Also, in text email you cannot embed AdSense ads and other revenue generating items. In the HTML format of the website you are able to do this to develop some potential for revenue.

Also, the website gives you a location where you can post a form for new subscribers to complete for entry into your database. Having a web site is definitely an advantage in publishing an eZine, but it is not absolutely necessary.

A new concept that has recently developed is to use a blog to post past issues of the newsletters so people can read them in HTML format.

Let’s discuss a blog and blogging. Blog is short for web log. It is an online journal or newsletter that is published by someone on the Internet for public reading.

The largest blog site on the Internet is Blogger.com. This site started in 1999 and was purchased by Google in 2002. The site on the Internet that keeps statistics on the traffic for every site on the Internet is called www.alexa.com. Blogger.com always ranks very high on Alexa since it is so popular and has so much traffic.

Traffic to your site is the major factor for the success or failure of your site. Your site’s position on Google or Yahoo search engines for your key words will make or break you. Having your newsletter on Blogger helps since the Google spiders check the blogs quickly when new information is posted. This will give you much quicker exposure to the search engines than posting your newsletters to your own website.

Boomer eZine made a decision to continue to post copies of the newsletter on both the Boomer eZine web site (See link to site in resource information below) and also on the Boomer eZine blog on http://boomer-ezine.blogspot.com.

There are some great advantages of using a blog for the archives of your eZine.

1.It is free.
2.You do not have to worry about setting up a website.
3.Publishing on a blog is very quick and easy.
4.You can include AdSense or affiliate advertising on your blog to generate revenue.
5.Setting up AdSense ads on Blogger is much easier than setting them up on your own website.
6.Readers can leave comments about your issues and interact with you.
7.Search engines see your new content faster than on your own website.

Since AdSense is such an important part of this program, I recommend that you join it first and then set up your blog. AdSense is a Google program that you set up on your web pages. It reads the content of the page and automatically places ads on the page that match the page’s theme or content. When a reader clicks on an AdSense ad on your page and makes a purchase, you receive a commission on the sale. All you have to do is allow the AdSense program on your pages and Google does the rest. It is an ingenious system and one that has revolutionized advertising on the Internet. If you are not already a member of AdSense, you can join it at https://www.google.com/adsense.

Once you have set up your account, go to Blogger at www.blogger.com and follow the three easy steps on the page. Once you open an account, you will name your blog, and then choose a template. There are several templates to choose from which is the hardest part of the set up. Don’t get too concerned about the template since you can change it whenever you want to.

Now you can set up the blog for your eZine. (You can have multiple blogs in your account). However, I would recommend that you create a blog about your thoughts and experiences while you are planning your eZine launch and make daily entries in that blog. This will give you experience on how to maintain a blog. I think you will have fun doing it. Just remember that the world sees your information in the blog so don’t give away any confidential information about your new eZine.

Good luck with your newsletter and your blog.

Marketing Strategies Success(TIPS 9):The Truth About Direct Email & Email Lists Part 2 - What`s Safe

Greeting readers,

Today, you`re going to learn how to protect yourself and your money from ineffective email lists.I`m going to introduce you to the safe-and-sound distribution techniques that will ensure that your message is always welcomed into a recipients` inbox, not his/her Trash Bin.

This is last one!
The Truth About Direct Email & Email Lists Part 2: What`s Safe

Safe Email Marketing

Safe email marketing in the direct marketing/Internet marketing world is called OPT-IN EMAIL MARKETING.This is an important term and one you need to commit to memory as a fundamental building block in successful marketing.

You`ve probably seen ads in trade magazines offering "Opt-in Email Lists."This is your best bet when conducting a direct email campaign. Opt-in lists help you identify people that are "pre-sold" when it comes to receiving offers in the mail. By opting-in to a list, they let you know that they`re eager to read about something new and beneficial.

Safe Email Marketing breaks down into these 2 categories:

1.Paid Safe Lists
2.Opt-In List Rentals

PAID SAFE LISTS

This is a twist on opt-in email marketing where you pay for the privilege of being able to send email to a list of other marketers who have done the same.A paid safe list can range in price from $2 and up.

The advantages:you don`t have to send the emails using your ISP and you won`t have to worry about spam complaints and disclaimers.

OPT-IN LIST RENTAL

This type of list is similar to a standard "specialty" direct mail list.It`s targeted and aimed at people who are interested in what you have to offer.

Companies that offer list rentals usually collect millions of email addresses by advertising well-branded, popular products and services.Also they may offer no-cost
newsletters and/or contests as a way to capture addresses.

Opt-in list rental companies ask interested people to fill out a form on their website.The forms gather as much info as possible, which allows the company to better categorize their email lists according to preferences by industry:
gardening,bodybuilding,Internet marketing, etc.

Of course you`re going to pay more to rent this type of list,but you won`t find a better-targeted audience for your offer.These companies do the mailing for you, so you won`t have access to the names.

Ok!
