Things are moving along now…

I am finally starting to put all of this internet marketing together, albeit one small step at a time.  Balancing this new project with the reality of life and maintaining the homestead has thrown me a few curveballs.   Time menagement is a crucial part of it all.  The reality is nothing ever worth anything is easy.  To be my own employer is the goal and I am slowly achieving that.  This summer has been difficult with several deaths in the family.  That slowed me way down.  I am picking myself up, brushing off the dust, and diving back in.  I just wanted to post quickly here and say new things are on the horizon from XTS Promotions.  PEACE!

A shout to the musicians out there, check this out!!

MUSICIANS ALERT!!! READ BELOW TO GET MOVING…

Alright then, here is a few links to items I promote for my fellow musicians out there. Drummers get a good solid foundation started, songwriters fine tune your art, and get the low down on how to build a sweet little recording platform on the cheap. Read on for more info….

  • Drummers, beginner and amateur, this is for you. Feeling stuck in the mud? Can’t create and get out of the 4/4 rut? this will show you how. Teach yourself proper practice techniques, rudiments, drum set up and piles more things that can really boost your performance. Remember one thing, you are never done learning your instrument!! I have been playing close to twenty years and still learn something new every time I sit and jam. Quitters never could!!!
  • Next item up for bids is for the songwriters out there, be it a group or solo effort. Understand the song and it’s contents are the difference between good and great. So let’s say that you have all these great ideas, yet can not put them to paper to craft them into music. Perhaps your lyrics come naturally, but you can’t match them to a melody. These are just a few topics discussed in this book. Take the next step and professionalize your efforts. ORDER NOW
  • The next item I have to offer you deals with How to turn your tunes into $. Now remember, this is no gimme, you have to work at these things, but if you are willing the steps are laid out for you here. Have the labels knocking down your door, wanting to offer you a contract. Have your music writing and performing start really showing the dividends you hoped for. No more MAC AND CHEESE!! Get busy and order this tool today. KNOWLEDGE IS POWER.  Remember to come over to another site of mine to see if your item is discounted.

Links to my spiderweb on the net….. Gotcha!!

O.K. I understand there are piles of social networking sites out there. I was recommended to use this one. Since I already have other blog sites that are further ahead, as well as main websites, I will use this as a jumping point to those places. Although, I really do like the WordPress format. Well, here we go then….

  1. http://www.xtspromotions.com is a main website for doing what I do!! The webpage offers up products, resources, customer feedback, contacting points, surveys, and links to other social networking and blog sites.  I currently promote self help and knowldege building E -books and membership discounts to some very resourceful media download sites.
  2. http://mysite.verizon.net/vzepaec4 or http://mysite.verizon.net/tentonsledge are both Urls leading to a Website I have created @ Verizon. This one also offers up the same products as the first page at this time. I will be offering different things from both pages in the future, so I would hope potential customers will bounce around and check this site out, too. It contains more personal things as well, A place you can get to know me and my interests, as well as educate yourself on lots of topics. If you or someone you know plays drums, then send them my way and we can discuss things. I hope to see you there.
  3. This will take you to my Blogger.com page
  4. This is a YouTube page I have started recently... mostly just videos of things I like etc, will be posting videos of product reviews that I find on this site or embedding them in blogs, so look around!
  5. Follow me on Twitter.com. This is a neat little networking tool to check out.
  6. Have you heard of BlogCatalog.com? If not, come join in the fun and get your feet wet!
  7. Squidoo is another one I am trying out.
  8. This will take you to the page I have @Myspace.com. This site is more about the fun and topics of interest I enjoy sharing, less on the business side!
  9. Have you heard of the Mixx? Come see what this site is all about.

Sad But True

About XTS Promotions

So, here I am standing at a crossroads in my life, and thinking to myself, “what will I do with myself ?” After all, life is about the choices we make and the results that occur from those said choices. So after my back surgery I decided that I would try to work from home. Construction jobs were not going to aid in my recovery! So after much thought and debate with my wife, we decided it was the right thing to do. My journey has brought me this far, and I see good things on the horizon. My glass is always half full, I tend to be Lockian in my way of thinking about life. Don’t know what Lockian Theory is? Well then you can go here for a wiki article about the man for which it is named and go here for the other side of the coin or Hobbsian theory

With that being said, the purpose of my business venture is to offer products to enhance what we already own. In today’s economy, we need to be more aware of how we spend our hard earned money. There are great products out there to help us add more value to what we already own. i also offer some digital media for musicians (self help and promotion) Digital media memberships to some pretty killer outlets, e-books on topics including all kinds of cat owners tricks and secrets, fund raising, spicing up the love life at home (not dirty), Tattoo parlor dream sites, how to lay claim to seized assets, automobiles on the cheap, lots of interesting things to help people save dough and by coming to see my pages, perhaps a discount will be offered on an item of your choosing.

Please join me in creating that kind of atmosphere, I work from home and look forward to treating potential customers with the utmost respect. After all, we are all human, regardless of differences, and we are all just trying to get by on the third rock from the sun. i will always take requests for products that you may be interested in. So if you so not see an item you may be looking into, ask me to help you research it and get back to you with my reply and whether or not I can help you. Just because you do not see a particular item, does not mean I can not secure it. Kick the tires a little bit. this is new to me and am anxious and excited to hear from you……… Lets get rolling and thanks for cruising in.
