Magnetic Business Card
Jan 26th
An extraordinary and innovative way to promote your business. It’s via magnetic business cards. Magnet cards? Why go with magnets?
We’ll there are advantages that I see using a magnetic card. First, the design. It’s completely unique and will surely catch your clients attention. On that point alone, meetings or transactions you’ve done on the day won’t be easily forgotten. Secondly, the perception. It may be expensive to those traditional business cards in the market but the price that you have to pay for the card reflects a serious business perspective to your client. Third, it’s indispensable in a way. People won’t throw it that easy because it can be use as a note holder for refrigerators at home. Right isn’t?
It’s not all cards, calendar too is magnetic. You can check all the pre-made designs at Bizcard website. They offer a wide variety of templates to choose from weather it is a magnetic card or a magnetics calendar. You can also customize your own design and upload it on their server. Their design template wizard is very easy and fun to use. On the wizard as well gives you at least 3 design suite to choose from. Free, premium and elite. There were endless possibilities for you to have a very unique and professional card that will suite your business.

- In the right-hand pane, right-click on RunOnceHasShown and change the value to 1
- Close Regedit and restart Internet Explorer 7
Open Notepad.
Copy and paste the following into Notepad:

For Windows XP users who upgraded to IE7, I’m sorry if any of theses didn’t work for you but you can always go back to IE6 (which is much stable) by simply uninstalling IE7 in add/remove programs under control panel. I’m pretty sure runonce will not show up again.
But if I were you, I’ll shift to Firefox and quit using IE. Just a suggestion. ;-D
Dela Hoya Vs. Mayweather Ticket Sale!
Jan 23rd
The heat is On. De la Hoya versus Mayweather II sequel are close to finishing a deal for a rematch. Most boxing news said that it will be around September 13 or 20 and will be aired by HBO pay-per-view. The venue will be announced soon. I remember last spring on how this two great boxers break the box-office records and which was eventually won by Mayweather. Here’s an excerpt from ESPN.
“We are still discussing things but we have almost finalized it,” said Schaefer. “I think an announcement will be forthcoming. Floyd is agreeable to do the fight and so is Oscar. Now it’s just me working through everything.”
If in case that De La Hoya wins this rematch then the world will certainly wait for the much more exciting boxing trilogy. I hope that De La Hoya win this time. But in the event that Mayweather spoils De La Hoya’s bid for this fight then I believe that Oscar should hang up his gloves already and retire from boxing.
And as far as promotion is concern, I believe a lot of bloggers will have a post about this rematch to get a share of traffic and online revenues. On the business side, Oscar De La Hoya vs Floyd Mayweather Jr. tickets will be selling like hotcakes as they have already proved their worth in boxing.
