By Ian Canaway In the following 'special report,' I will reveal some very powerful marketing strategies and psychological motivators that can easily help you make more profits from your business, no matter what business you're in. Be sure to read it thoroughly, and take notes as needed so that you can take maximum advantage of the information being covered. Here's how it all began One day, I noticed an interesting marketing concept. So, I sent my subscribers an interesting question. Here's what I sent to them... ------------------------------------ "If you had to sell popcorn, how much would you be able to charge for it? Most of us would be willing to spend around one to two dollars on it. And I'm talking about a nice sized bag. But, here's something interesting... Movie theatres charge 3 to 6 dollars for their popcorn! And you don't even get nearly as much popcorn as you'd get elsewhere! What's the deal? Is their popcorn "special?" Not really. But they're still able to charge 2 to 3 times more than others and still have people buying in droves. How are they doing it?? If you can answer that, I'll give you a special prize. Just reply to this note with your answer. It doesn't have to be the right answer, as long as you stop to think about it."
------------------------------------ Within minutes of sending the email out, the responses started pouring in Some were extremely short and to the point, with statements like... "Because they can" or "It's the smell" or "Because people get hungry." Yes, some people do get hungry and have to buy 'something.' But that's not the bulk of the buyers by any means. And...if they get hungry and are forced to pay the high prices, they mostly likely will not want to be caught in that situation again, will they? And, yes, some do buy it because they can't resist the smell. But there's more to it than that. Other answers said, "It's the perfect location" "Supply and demand" "Captive audience." Another answer stated... "Monopoly! You can't bring anything into the theatre and once you are in, there is no where else to purchase popcorn." That's not necessarily a wrong answer. But, it does make one wonder... If they corner their customers in this way and charge them high prices, wouldn't most customers be either outraged not to buy, or at least not buy again, in the future? The question that comes up is... why do they continue to buy it and pay these outrageous prices? Another subscriber suggested... "People don't go to see the movies everyday. So, they are willing to pay the high prices once per weekend." Sure, that's possible. Although, I think at some point, they'd get tired of having to pay the high prices, wouldn't you say? They can't be paying the high prices just because they 'have to.' It's gotta be because they 'want to.' But, why would they want to, despite the outrageous prices? Could it be that price just isn't an issue in this case? Hmm One subscriber started a discussion in his office, and sent these responses... "Some said it's because it's the only place you can get "Movie theatre" popcorn, some said because the taste or when they smell it - they have to have it. Others said because they have to be eating something. My thought is because they have the market trained. And, it didn't start with this generation... Parents brought their kids to the movies and either by example or verbally trained the kids to buy popcorn at the movies - It's just what you do..." Ahh... now we're getting somewhere.

By Toni Narins, L.Ac. Menopause is the cessation of the menstrual cycle, which usually occurs slowly, as the ovaries gradually lose their ability to produce estrogen. The reduced levels of estrogen in the body reduces fertility, making reproduction more and more difficult until it eventually ceases altogether. Menopause is a natural part of the physiological aging process, but can also be induced surgically, when a woman undergoes a hysterectomy - if the ovaries are removed with the uterus. The average age of onset of menopause is 50.5 years, but can occur much earlier in cases of premature ovarian failure, or slightly later. Some women can sail through menopause with hardly a symptom. Most women experience something - from mild to severe hot flashes, night sweats, insomnia, to irritability. Other possible symptoms can include ***l dryness, urinary urgency or incontinence, osteoporosis, joint pain, decreased libido, fatigue, depression, memory loss and mood swings. One decade, estrogen replacement therapy is touted to be the best thing since the water faucet, and the next decade it is deadly. Nowadays there are bio-identical hormones available, progesterone creams, and a host of other options. The risks of such treatments are still unknown, especially for women who have had a history of breast cancer. One of the many options available to women is acupuncture and oriental medicine, sometimes called Chinese medicine. The roots of this medicine go deep. It has been treating women for all the symptoms associated with menopause and perimenopause for around 5,000 years. Does it work? Well, if it didnt, someone would have noticed by now. But how does it work, and what can you expect from being treated by this ancient form of medicine? To answer the second question first, you can expect a soothing environment, and a sense of deep relaxation. Some people can actually feel something shift inside them during treatments, describing it as a sense of something being released. Some people feel a slight tingling, and some a heavy sensation. Sometimes patients report that they experienced fewer hot flashes, mood swings or night sweats after one treatment. But since Oriental medicine relies on the bodys ability to correct and heal itself, it usually takes more than one treatment for you to get lasting results. So what is happening here? How does this work? What we say is that before you experience any kind of a symptom, the bodys energy is out of balance. First energy goes out of balance, and then matter follows energy. The principle that underlies the theory of acupuncture is the principle of energy. When the energies of your organs and tissues are in balance, then they function properly. Over time, with different stressful situations, different life events and choices, our energies lose their equilibrium. Factors such as diet, emotional stress, overwork, lack of exercise, etc. affect the bodies energies. Its like a stream with too many rocks in it on the upstream side you get a puddle, and on the downstream side you get a trickle. What acupuncture needles do is take the rocks out of the stream. Starting with perimenopause, women begin to lose whats called their yin energy. Yin relates to quiet, moist, calm, receptive energy. Its as if you forgot to put enough coolant into the engine of your car, so the engine heats up. Its not that theres too much heat, its that there isnt enough coolant. So while acupuncture can balance your bodies energies, you can also expect that your acupuncturist will recommend an herbal formula. Herbs are a way of putting something into the body - in this case, some coolant. Chinese herbs are almost never taken singularly. They are meant to be taken in formulas, with specific amounts of each herb, prescribed to match each patients specific condition or conditions, body type, etc. When searching for an acupuncturist to treat your menopause or perimenopausal symptoms, you should make sure that he or she is a qualified herbalist, too, as this will make a big difference in the results you can expect. But it is important to understand that many of the herbs which are typically used in treating perimenopause or menopausal symptoms contain phytoestrogens, they are generally contraindicated in treating women who have had a history of breast cancer. Only a qualified herbalist will be able to decide if it is possible to compose a formula without any phytoestrogens, which would effectively treat your symptoms.
