Home Beer Making

I first Started Home Beer Making a long time ago, in fact I was still at school when I started making homebrew beer.
There were dozens of different home beer brewing kits available in most of the supermarkets and pharmacy's a the time all of them promising to make the perfect home-brew beer.
My friends and I tried pretty much all of them. Some of the results were disastrous to say the least but as buying homebrew beer making kits was the easiest way for us under-age drinkers to get alcohol. We persevered until eventually the sediment full, murky river-water type brew that we produced (and got sick on) gradually became clearer and less vomit inducing.
Home beer making became more than just a means to get outrageously drunk and gradually became an enjoyable hobby and we learnt that homemade beer did'nt have to taste vile and we began to take pride in the quality of home brew beer.
We even started to buy some equipment; syphoning tubes, bottle labels, bottle tops, hydrometers and various other bits and pieces, even managing to get hold of a couple of kegs so we could have party's with beer on tap rather than having to mess about opening bottles.
We had come of age and people began to know they could come to our party's and have a good few pints of reasonable quality homemade beer without getting sick, it still was'nt as good as commercially brewed beer but it was pretty good, got you drunk, tasted reasonable and best of all it cost next to nothing to produce when compared to what you have to pay at the pub.
If only we had, had the information then that is available now. There are hundreds of books, courses and video's available that enable even the complete beginner to produce excellent Home Brew Beer that not only rivals but surpases many of the beers available commercially and with the current economic climate and high cost of going out to drink in the pubs and clubs there has never been a better time to try your hand at home beer making.

How To Write Effective E-Mails

The first step in writing effective emails and newsletters is to get them opened. Just because people have subscribed to your mailing list does not guarantee they are going to open every email or newsletter you send them. To make your emails and newsletters effective you must start with a subject line that is going to grab the readers attention and the simplest way to do this is in the way you use your text and the words that you use.

Think of your subject line like a newspaper headline, go to your newsagents and browse the headlines, that should give you some ideas of how to grab a readers attention.
Of course E-Mail marketing is now even more competitive than newspaper sales so you have to be even more creative.
The creative use of symbols and white space when composing your email subject line will make you more noticeable than your competitors.

Take a look at these examples:

The *SHOCKING* Truth Behind Effective HeadlinesRead

The *Ama 'Z' inG* Subject Lines Of The Stars

***Getting Noticed ***>

Discover How To Write ~DANGEROUS~ Subject Lines

STOP! Don't Write Another E-Mail

On these examples you will notice the use of 'High Impact' words, symbols and white space (the space between words and/or letters. Remember also that everybody wants something for nothing so words like "Free", "Bonus", "Gift", etc. also work.
There are hundreds of high impact words and phrases to use, so experiment and the next time a piece of text grabs your attention take a second to analyse why you noticed it, you will soon build up your email subject line writing skills.

If you are sending emails out in bulk you have probably built your own list and are using an Autoresponder. Hopefully when you built your list you gathered details such as the person's name and perhaps their geographical and demographic information. Armed with this information and assuming you are using a good quality Autoresponder you can add further impact by personalising you email subject line, for example an email to "Joe" from New York might read:

*Joe! Discover The Amazing Secrets New Yorkers Send By E-Mail

or

~New Yorkers Qualify for Extra Bonus~

or

New York Man "Discovers The Secret" Of Effective E-Mails

Try to think of your email or newsletter as a team effort, each part of your email forming part of the team and the subject line is only part of that team, the more you learn about the different parts of the team the more effective your email marketing campaigns will be. (Read E-Mail Marketing ezines)

Remember "A teams strength is much greater than the sum of it's individual parts" So pay attention to detail, each small contribution when added to all the others makes a much bigger impact than it first appears.

Confused Pilot?

Was this a very confused pilot or did he have advanced warning?

These photographs were taken of the sky above
Southern Withernsea in East Yorkshire, England

on the afternoon before British airspace was closed

due to the Icelandic Volcano erupting.
It appears to be the contrail of a jet circling overhead.

Glynn Sole

Self Promotion

Being the shy and retiring type I don't usually go much for self promotion but as the
man said; "My only real fault is my excessive modesty" so I decided to start working
on that one fault and make an Animoto Video promoting Glynn Sole.
Yes I know it's strange for me to talk about Glynn Sole in the third person but you see part
of the self promotion is to get this page found on the search engines and if Glynn Sole
does'nt get a mention Glynn Sole does'nt get found.
If you like this video, why don't you get on over to Animoto and make your own short video about yourself (or any thing else you want to). It's fast, and easy and most importantly of all
Its Freeeee....
If you don't like this video about Glynn Sole and your not into self promotion make one about anything you want or just put some of your favourite pictures on there, set them to your favourite music and make an exciting slide show to send to your friends.
Here's another on I made, be careful with making these it gets addictive.
