Think Positive Magazine - I Really Like This One!

Think positive is a magazine and website created by Miracle Media (which is headquartered in Chicago, IL).  Check out the site at: http://www.thinkpositivemag.com/.  This site and magazine are targeted at young, urban black professionals. However, this is more than a magazine or simply a web site. It is a call to action, according to Telie Woods, the co-founder and marketing manager. The aim of the content is on positivity in lifestyle and personal goals.

Having a magazine and site whose aim is to uplift and improve an entire community and demographic is certainly a noteworthy goal. One of the best things about Think Positive is that it is aimed at a demographic which is so often ignored. The content is excellent with tips and advice ranging from health and finances to career, education, family and even community.

Being positive in a world that so often seems negative can be a bit confusing to the mainstream media. However, Think Positive clearly sees itself not as just ‘another magazine,’ but as a medium for change.  Not change in the sense of revolution, but change in the sense of transformation. This can be the impetus for actually elevating our thinking, which is certainly the first step in instituting any type of lasting change.

Many studies have shown that when we elevate our thinking this leads to a more positive outlook and higher self-confidence. As these improve, we actually begin to get smarter! This magazine, therefore, can be the impetus to improve ourselves in all areas of life.

How to Create a Call to Action

If you are a work at home Mom, or are involved in your own business in any way, you know how hard it can be to ask for the sale. Selling just does not come naturally to most people, and it can be an uncomfortable and humiliating process for even the most confident person. In addition, there are no easy ways to overcome this discomfort.

Really, the best way to make the sales process easier is to genuinely believe in the product you are marketing; be educated about the product so that you can answer all questions; use ethical marketing practices; and understand that at some point, you are going to have create a call to action.

You are going to have to ask for the sale. You do not always have to do this by physically asking though, you can ask for the sale in your sales letter or in other marketing materials, and it truly does not have to be the hardest part of your sales process. If you are like many marketers, you can get so caught up in informing the customer about the product benefits, that you forget to simply give the customer clear instructions on how to take the next step. You must understand that if you do not give clear instructions, you will lose a very large percentage of interested people.

There are many simple ways that you can create a call to action through your website. You can use a simple web button, you can include forms for the customer to fill out, or in your sales letter, you can give clear contact or purchasing instructions. Just remember when you are creating your call to action to use action words like Buy, Call, Subscribe, Donate, Register etc. If you do things this way, the customer knows exactly what you want her to do.
