How to do great marketing for your online store/shop


First, start with a page on Facebook, even you already have a self-hosted site (or a Shopify site) on your own, it is advisory to have a Facebook page!

Here are some marketing online  strategies for you to consider:


  • Improve your content: Write relevant topics and write interesting content that can engage your audiences and start to build your brand of products.
  • Enable social sharing. Once they like the content, they tend to share it with other people they know, so put social media buttons on your site. Remember that you should be the first to share it :)
  • Make use of Facebook: Facebook helps you stay in touch closely with your customers. Approach them in a personal way, read their comments, messages, complaints.... Please them with promotion programs (even small ones), telling them inspiring stories, and share your own thoughts with your customers.
  • You can also leave some budget to run ads on Facebook to let people know more about your brand.
  • Run some viral content on Facebook, Youtube, Soundcloud, Pinterest/Instagram Hashtags, Vine (Twitter) to engage more audineces on different social media channels.
  • Once you have enough audiences, build a email marketing campaign to stay in touch more with them about your site/shop. 
  • Last but not least, if you have more money to spend and need constant sales, why not try Google Adwords, set some bidding budget for some important keywords that lead to sales on Google search engine or Google Display Network, the results may come out great.

  • You feel bad, sorry or even hate yourself and it makes you want to cry.
  • You sleep too much or too little and NEVER a sound one.

How to overcome depression and deal with it:

I am no mental expert , I am just a person who's gone through many stages of depression in my life and still tried to overcome with it day by day.

Here are few of my advice:
  • Find a goal in your life or just start to do some thing for a day. At least, you SHOULD HAVE A GOAL to forget your negative thoughts.
  • Work, people, weather are causing you stress and trouble? Think about the reasons of these stresses and work them out, even LEAVE them if they start to drive you crazy.
  • Look at other misfortune creatures in the world and start to appreciate for being better than them.. 
  • Listen to music songs that are inspired, "If I die young", for example, to think again about your life.
  • Consult somebody you love and trust.
  • Start to love yourself, yes, if you don't then you're killing it.
  • Stop thinking negatively, stop interacting with bad people and trashy media communication.
  • Remind yourself of best moments in your life, your good attitude/actions and your influences on other people. There are people who love, care and think of you at least once in their everyday life.

 There is always light at the end of the tunnel.

How to make money online with Google Adsense (2015)




Do you own a Gmail account? Do you have a blog/website, Youtube channel or other allowed online eligibilities that are approved by Google to let you put their ads on your site.

Here are a few questions to begin with Google Adsense:

  • Do you have a website/blog/youtube channel?
  • Are you at least 18 years old?
  • Does your site comply with Google Adsense program policies?
  • Has your site been active for at least six months (mostly China and India)?
  • Do you produce original content and receive good traffic?
When you're ready, you can submit an application and Google will process and get back to you after reviewing.

Once you are approved for Adsense, you can place the ads by inserting AdSense code on your blog/website. By these ads you will earn money by CPC or CPM ads.  Read more about those here: https://support.google.com/adsense#topic=3373519
 

Sign up for Google AdSense:

AdSense supports Google's products such as Blogger and YouTube to allow you to earn money through your blog/channel.
For Blogger: You can create a free blog on BlogSpot: https://www.blogger.com with your Gmail account, remember to post original content with at least 500 words, get users coming to your site, at least 10 posts, wait several months and then apply for Adsense when you're ready. In the Blogger panel, you can see the "Earnings Tab" where you can start to sign up there right away.

For YouTube: Do you know Youtube beauty guru such as Michelle Phan? Do you love to create & record videos? You can earn money online with Adsense through your original videos on Youtube.

Remember that your content on those methods should be original as well. If you have a self-hosted domain, remember to wait several months to one year before applying as it is likely that Google prefers long-time domain.


What to do if your Adsense application is rejected?

There's no surprise that many people are rejected by Google Adsense, there are many reasons behind that  but mostly because you don't have the sufficient and/or original content or even traffic that they require or your site is too "young" (a couple of months old with non-impressed traffic)...

Make sure to read their policies before applying. And if you fail, don't worry, wait for more months, when you are ready to make more original content and traffic, get back to them for review.

How To Fix Tightened (Shrunk) Rubber/Crocs Shoes


There are chances that your rubber-material made shoes will be suddenly tightened due to: being left in hot environment(car), washed in the dishwasher or left exposed in the sun for some time.

How To Fix Tightened (Shrunk) Rubber/Crocs Shoes:

 

First, put the shoes in hot/boiling water for under 1 minute, then put your feet in them (make sure when you can stand the heat) immediately and then wear them for awhile.

Hot water helps loosen the material and by wearing them for awhile after boiling, helps re-mold to shoes to fit your feet again by stretching them out.  If the shoes are too tight, you may need a pair of thick socks to your feet before putting them in the shoes so they'll stretch better.


Some people also place their rubber shoes in the clothes dryer (with some towels, for 2-3 minutes), or using a hot hair dryer to point at them for several minutes.These are "hot" methods as well, to remold the tightened shoes, some work, some don't depend on your luck but make sure to keep your shoes in cool, shady places when they’re not worn. 

On the contrary, you can also fix your oversized Rubber/Crocs Shoes by putting them in hot water and wear them right away and try to squeeze them to fit your feet.

Good luck!
