Who Invented Speed Reading?
The worlds most famous speed reading course is Reading Dynamics developed by Evelyn Wood. Its famous for teaching people to read faster, or speed reading as she called it. Her live course was the first known course that taught students to read faster and it started with about 25 hours of training to double the reading speed.
Over time the system was made available all over the world. These well practiced techniques teach students to read more rapidly, and also comprehend more of what they are reading. These techniques have proven to be repeatedly effective with all ages in many countries around the world.
There are many stories about how Evelyn Wood first learned speed read. My personal favorite was that she, as a child, was fishing at a nearby lake in Utah where she was living. To Evelyn, fishing was a relaxing necessity, but her mind was always active.
When fishing, she brought a book to read until she saw that the float on the fishing line was bobbing. Then shed reel in the fish. It was said that she read with the sun at her back for natural light, and used her index finger on her dominant hand to track under the words she were reading.

Marketing Mix – Discover How This Powerful Concept Can Be 100% Responsible For Your Success
Not many people know of the Marketing Mix, or if they have heard of it, what it really means. Some think it’s all about the specials that they run in their business, or how many newspaper adverts they put it. Actually, it’s a combination of what is also commonly known as The 4 P’s.
Product, Price, Place and Promotion. In that order. Without one, the others fail. All 4 combined together will be 100% responsible for your promotion success. Let me go over them each and how they tie in together and you’ll start to see what I mean.
Product.
This refers to your physical product, or your service that you offer. Have you really looked at it? Pulled it apart and examined it from all angles? (And I don’t mean physically pull it apart!) What is so special about this product of yours? What are you really selling? For example, a hardware shop doesn’t sell drills; it sells holes in the walls. A hairdresser doesn’t sell haircuts, they sell confidence. Find your benefits and see if your product really delivers what you say it does. Once you know that the market wants your product, you can then go about pricing it.

Promotional Items – Glowing Success
One of the most successful and noteworthy means of market promotion is the promotional items. Promotional items refer to free gift items or products offered by business enterprises to draw together a mass population to use their products and enhance their profit motive. These items are designed trendily keeping into account the market demand and latest fashion and these carry the company brand name, logo, emblem or any message imprinted or embossed on them. Now, most companies include the website address on them to make it handier for customers.
Promotional items have proved themselves triumphantly in the domain of marketing and advertising. Many consider the use of promotional products as the most efficient promotional tool. Media advertisements like television ads, national newspaper ads are the conventional means of reaching a target audience, but promotional products and gifts have shown better results in the past few years.

Praise Not Criticism In Your Internet Marketing Promotion
In today’s article I am going to explore the concepts of praise and criticism. Of the two it is often far easier to criticise than to praise. However, what is to be gained from criticism?
Nothing but resentment and a wounded pride, none of which will get someone to do as you want. More often than not the person criticised just gets defensive or as Dale Carnegie says, they will probably just justify him or herself and condemn you.
The net result is nothing gained just a prospect lost forever.
Take for example children. I am a mother of two children aged four and six. I find that I can get them to do as I want far easier by praise than by criticism. Sometimes it can be hard to praise when I am being pushed to my limits, however there is always something that I can find to praise while ignoring the transgressions.
l find that they will quickly forget the bad behaviour as that is not what is getting them attention. They quickly realise that it is their good behaviour that is gaining them the most attention which is ultimately what they crave.
