Funny stuff... funny stuff...
Last night, my wife and I were out at our local brew-pub getting our burger and beer fix. When out of the blue my wife began to laugh. I figured she was poking fun at me.
Did I've something wedged during my teeth?
Was a fry stuck to my cheek?
Turns out neither.
So when Gurus my spouse why she was chuckling, she told me she felt embarrassed saying.
Embarrassed?
I said:
"Honey, we are able to discuss anything. You are able to feel comfortable saying what's in your thoughts. And that i promise not to judge you..."
So she caved, and told me she was excited American Idol was starting a new season.

We finished our burgers and beer. We paid our waiter. And my spouse drug me home to catch the first episode. Good thing too... because this show is bursting like a water balloon with tons of direct response marketing tips.

Then, you have Jennifer Lopez who needs no explanation. And lastly, you have Randy Jackson who has worked in the music biz because the dawn of the dinosaurs.
My point?
That Idol certainly uses lots of celebrities to promote the show.
The strength of contest marketing:
Contests are among the fastest (and many fun) ways to grow a small business. Just take a look at Idol. Sure, the ultimate goal would be to win and be a famous recording artist. But what really gets contestants going is the whole idea that they're competing against everybody else.
And nobody likes to lose.
So how do you need a contest to promote your small business?
And the power of referral marketing:

Where are you able to turn for additional good ideas like what you just read in the following paragraphs?

Remember:
Saying is a thing.
Doing is another.
And most of these "talking heads" haven't run their very own successful small business.
