effective ways to identify the best foreign markets for your
products/services. International trade shows and fairs offer
opportunities for multilateral contacts and business deals. They
allow you to test your product's export suitability; explore the

Copyright © Roux Malan
http://www.International-Home-Business.com
Introduction
How many times in your life did you have a dream that never
turned into a reality? Perhaps you had the dream to own your own
business online or to be your own boss. Perhaps you had the
dream of going overseas, but you never had enough money.

Comic Book Industry Blunders
What has gone wrong within the industry and can it be fixed? The
rape and pillage, in the eyes of some, may have left the comic
book industry gasping for life support. It seems that for an
industry that has seen so much success, the history of comic
books, has apparently been confounded by seemingly dumb

"comic books". The earliest versions of the so-called half-tab
(for half tabloid) reprints of the Sunday funnies (the ...

SIGNED VS. UNSIGNED-BUYING VINTAGE JEWELRY, ART
There is always a large debate between the 'real' collectors,
and your basic lover of beautiful items...should you buy items
that are signed by well known and highly sought after designers
and artists, or should you just buy what you love and what
appeals to you, whether signed or not?
The answer usually lies in how fat your wallet is, and the
reason you are buying in the first place. Highly sought after
designers, especially in jewelry and art, are both usually very
highly over-priced, as ...

Ask For A Better Price
Years ago, I was in the US Air Force, stationed at Clark Air
Base, Republic of Philippines. I loved the place and regretted
when our unit was moved. The biggest lesson I learned during my
tour of duty there was to bargain. This was a concept that was,
and still is, foreign to most Americans.
One day while in "the market" I saw a shirt that I really loved.
It had a drawstring waist and was made from an old flour sack
which had been printed. I asked "how much." The salesclerk said
$20. I said ...

The Craps Underground - A Review
"Scoblete's new book depicts the real world of dice influencing
about as accurately as Hogan's Heroes depicted life in a World
War II German POW camp."
That was my initial impression of Scoblete's new book which I
posted on the message board a few weeks back. Now I've had a
chance to re-read the book a couple of times and fully digest
it. Fortunately, I acquired one of the pre-release copies of the
book, gratis. I would have had a SERIOUS case of buyers remorse
had I actually paid $24.95 for ...

Philip Morris -- the second inundates you with lengthy catalog

I've always been fascinated by "anti-marketing", and how
powerful its effect can be if done properly, so when I stumbled
upon The Rich Jerk salesletter, I was immediately intrigued.
I'll admit, I'm one of those people who *never* reads a
salesletter when I am considering buying something (I do read
them when researching techniques, but that's another story), but
from the moment I read The Rich Jerk's headline, I couldn't keep
from reading the entire thing. Sure, in the back of my brain, I

'Nina,' she replied.
He smiled at her. 'Nina, a lovely name',' Henry said.
'What did you say?' Nina said. 'I can't hear you! The music is
too loud.'
'I love your name,' he said loudly.
Nina blushed and then the music slowed down and they started
dancing to a passionate love song. Henry's face touched her
cheek and she did not react. She let the music drive her to a

You've Got To Be Joking!
I don't know about you, but I get a lot of joke stuff arriving
in my email. I've got one buddy in particular who hardly lets a
day go by without sending something.
Sometimes they're side-splittingly hilarious, and other times
they just don't make the grade -- it's a question of taste I
suppose.
Anyway, I was cleaning up my folders in Outlook Express recently
to make some space on my hard disk (I've got a whopping 20 Gb
and I'm already getting low on space -- must be all those
