help with online marketing

Being a home and online business owner, I’m constantly looking for new business opportunities and trying out different ways to market my business. I believe that’s how it is for many of you too.

But being a mom of school-going kids, I find it very time-consuming to conduct research and trial and error exercises to find out what works and what doesn’t. It just takes up too much of my time and energy.

I recently found out about Orange Soda’s online marketing services which is the perfect way to get some of that weight off our shoulders. Theyir experts will help you manage your online marketing efforts using effective technological means to help your business grow.

This is good news for those who are newbies, techno-challenged or even seasoned online marketers who just don’t have the time to balance everything we have on our plates. Like I always say, a little help goes a long way because then, any time that’s freed up for us can be used on tasks that need our attention most.

To be quite honest, we can’t do everything ourselves even though we work at home. So if it means paying a little to take off some of the load and stress, it could be well worth it.

Dad and Grad special on laptop bags

One of the things a modern dad will definitely appreciate is a laptop backpack. I find laptop backpacks to be much more functional than laptop sling bags as they’re easier to carry and feel lighter because of the weight distribution.

This David King & Co. Laptop Backpack has a zippered padded laptop section, multi pocket organizer pockets (very convenient for stashing little gadgets) and even a cell phone holder on the shoulder strap.

There are many more designs of laptop backpacks, laptop cases and laptop sleeves to choose from at eBags. Be sure you take advantage of their Special Dads & Grads offer and save $10 when you spend $50 and above. Offer expires June 30, 2009.

coffee makers for Mother’s Day

Did you notice that Mother’s Day is less than a month away? I just did and I’ve started looking around for stuff that I would like to receive for Mother’s Day (hint! hint!) being that I’m a mother myself .

Yeah, this Bialetti Cuor di Moka Stovetop Espresso Maker would be nice. Made in Italy of high polish aluminum with silicone handles, it features an exclusive patented system developed with Illy to produce the best cup of espresso, or should I say 3 cups. I love the heart shape .

I also like this Bialetti Cappuccino and Latte set which comes with a 32oz. non-stick Milk Frother and is Bialetti’s best selling 6-cup coffee express. It’ll be just the right size for when I have friends over.

Okay, where did I find these? LaPrima Shops® is now my favorite online place to visit for its wide selection of funky looking bakeware, kitchenware and tableware. You enjoy free shipping on orders above $99.

Oh, there’s more. From now through May 14, 2009, you also get to save $5 instantly on purchases of $50 and up. You should seriously check out LaPrima.

my nails done at HP Digital Home Living, 1 Utama

See, I got my fingernails all prettied up for the long weekend. I’ve always wanted to have my nails painted with floral designs but I’m not one of those who has time to sit around for hours while each petal is painstakingly dotted on?

Well, I had mine done by a laser printer at the HP Digital Home Living booth on the Ground Floor at 1 Utama’s New Wing . I think they’ll be there through October 27, 2008.

The lady got me to stick my finger into this printer with a big hole and I picked a design from the selection on the laptop. She hit the ‘print’ button and I could hear the printer head clacking away the design onto my nail. How cool is that!

All done in a matter of minutes. Yes, an unlikely place to get my nails painted, my arm tattooed and a yummy cupcake to munch I know, and for free too. Woo-hoo.

we bought the Playstation 3

So the Playstation 3 is finally here, two years late. So where’s the excitement in that? But that’s just me. Obviously many people here, DH included, seem to think it is worth sacrificing sleep to go line up at 1 Utama at 5:00am.

Seems some of the folks had been camping there day and night for the past few days (see how dark it was).

As usual, the organizers made sure there was a gaggle of bare-skin-bare-boned girls to keep the big boys from getting bored while waiting to get their hands on their new toy. Nothing much to look at so you won’t miss the photos we didn’t take.

We did end up with a small discount, nothing much if you factor in all that proprietary stuff the Playstation 3 needs in order to work.
