Passive Income Websites

We’re sorry. No.

The only significant revenue that we see in the real marketplace using passive income websites is the profits made by people selling shoddy advice about how to get rich quick.

It’s hard to know how many people actually take a passive income website to real profits, but our guess is that it’s mostly people selling advice on how to make money from passive income websites. It’s a logic so tortured that it’s enough to make your head spin around.

Yellow Pages

In 2007, Google replaced Yellow Pages directories as the #1 consumer choice for finding LOCAL goods and services. But Yellow Pages still work for many businesses. Why?

Advertise Cooperatively

In the simplest example, a shopping district has a geographic footprint. That footprint defines not only where you are, but it locates your customer base pretty well, too. Why not consider getting together with some of your neighboring businesses and sharing the costs, sharing tips, and supporting each other in your marketing efforts? If there were a flood, would you help each other sandbag?

Want Green Advertising?

We do, too! But we’re pretty unhappy with most “me too” green advertising messages and don’t even get us started about big companies. So called Green is part of the reason why we specialize in advertising for locally owned, locally operated small businesses. Local business is inherently more green and will probably be our culture’s path back to true local sourcing of goods. Our own green credentials are pretty decent: our founder has chosen to give up driving (except for his 92 yr old Aunt Charlotte) Also, the company local sources everything that’s possible.
