USA Phone Number – How to start your USA home business

Today, we are going to discuss how you can get a real US phone number in any city and state you want.
Having a US phone number will help you in various ways in your online business, and we will try to reveal the most important point about having it, but let’s first see how we can get one. If you searched online in Google, Yahoo or Bing for “USA phone number” you will find tons of services that provide it with various prices. Whoever, the best one ever is Skype.

Most of us already have Skype’s username and we already installed it on our computers. In your Skype account, you can easily add a phone number in different countries including USA. Of course we will choose US, and also we will choose the state and the city according to your US Address. If your US address in Florida State and Bradenton city, then choose a number in Bradenton city. This will make your business look more real. Also, it will help you when you make your PayPal account or your US Bank account.
After you registered with Skype for your phone number, you will be able to receive your phone calls, even if you are offline. If you are online, then your Skype program will ring indicating that you have a new phone call, and you can answer it or sending it to the answer machine. If you are offline, then the program will automatically receive the voice call and save it for you until you become online and check it. You will use this phone number in your affiliate programs, your bank account, and even in your business card .
Skype provides the online phone number for $60 only yearly or 18$ every three months. I think it is a great deal. I have already subscribed to their services, and I never had an issue with them. Oh, by the way, you can make free phone calls to the toll-free numbers. This is really a great addition. It will help you a lot if you want to call PayPal, ClickBank, Amazon or your bank. It will save a lot of money for you. Besides the online phone number, you can save 50% if you subscribed to any of their monthly call packages. You can pay $2.99 and make unlimited calls to various countries. Well, I did not subscribe for their monthly call packages because I just need to call my bank and big companies and most of them have a toll-free number.

Now you know how to get a genuine US address and a genuine US phone number. The next step is to get your bank account. This is the hardest and the most critical step in your whole business. Do not worry, I will tell you exactly how I made my legal bank account, and how I get my ATM card that allows me to withdraw money from any location in the whole world.
I wish you learned something from today lesson and wait for the next post soon.

Asos Reaps Benefits of Online Marketing Drive in the USA

Online fashion retailer Asos revealed last week that it enjoyed a 59 per cent increase in revenue after online marketing efforts put its new US website well and truly on the map.
Asos said that the success of the US site means that revenues from its are on course to match its UK operations in the medium term.
According to the company, which has been trading now for over 10 years, the launch of its American website in October boosted sales in the US by 267 per cent for the last quarter of 2010 – thanks to online marketing efforts, US sales are now growing faster than their UK equivalents did in the early days of Asos. In the first few years of the century, its growth rate stood at around 100 per cent.
Asos chief executive Nick Robertson told the Independent newspaper that “the US will be at least as big as the UK in the medium term, which is very exciting.”




The fashion retailer also announced that it is taking advantage of the growing prevalence of online advertising via social networks – with plans to launch its very own “Facebook Store” on Thursday. The new platform will allow Facebook users to buy Asos products using their usual login for the Asos site, which attracts over 11 million visitors every month.
Millions of Asos customers already interact with its main website via Facebook, and the company’s e-commerce director James Hart said: “Our Facebook Store will allow them to do this directly through Facebook.”

2011 Is Sure To Be Great

New Year resolutions, reflecting back at 2010, and thinking about 2011 is what the next couple days are all about. When I think back about this year, I'm feeling so grateful for everything that I've experienced, the new friends I have made, and the goals I've achieved.

Things aren't always smooth but as long as you stay focused on your goals, you have nothing to be disappointed about. I recently spoke to a student who was upset about a recent web project that didn't succeed. I encouraged him to stay the course. With each failure there must be an equivalent success. By focusing on results, not the work itself, we can move ourselves in the direction we want to go.

Over the next few days, relax. Be grateful for all the experiences you've had during the year. Each of your experiences has brought you to this place, right where you are. Internet marketing, search engines, and other online promotions will still be there in 2011. One thing is certain though, they will change. Make it your goal to get more involved with online marketing in the coming year and stay on top of everything marketing.

As many of you know, I have published a couple of books and plan to continue publishing well into the future. I recently noticed that my royalties are growing for digital editions of my book. This was something that starting in 2010 but will only get bigger in 2011. What other changes are on the horizon? I don't know for sure but as marketers we need to lead the charge. New websites, new online promotions, continued growth in social media will be the norm.

Stay focused, enjoy what you do, and continue to improve your marketing knowledge. I'm looking forward to more blogging in 2011 and hearing from more of you through comments and guest posts. All the best to you and your family and Happy New Year!
