It has been said that one idea equals one million dollars and well,... not to be over zealous but that's exactly what could happen with The Turf Byrd's. It would be so cool to meet up with some person that wants to help take this company to the next level.
I have been thinking of creating another video for The Turf Byrd's and have been searching on Google for some images to add to the video. I hope that they fly for viewing purposes. There are a lot of funny looking and pretty interesting photos that I have found just searching for a couple of keywords. A man can get lost on the internet if he is not careful. That's what happens to me sometimes is that I get lost at what I am doing on the net that it seems like I am not getting anywhere.
Listening to video's, learning from video's and applying what I learned all into play is the real power behind knowledge. Because knowledge is really useless unless it is applied. What good is knowledge if you don't use it? Even when reading I try to read books that are positive and motivating that capture the interest of putting what I know to work. That is kind of like setting goals and achieving them, or writing a business plan for the first time in your life and having four counselors tell you it is one of the best plans that has ever walked through the SBA's door. That's the power of knowledge when it is applied, now for the action.
Action to me is follow through. Follow through the to do list checking things off as I go through out the day and adding new ones to the list as I go forward with my plan. That's action to me. Progress daily looking for opportunities and opening new doors. Follow through also creates direction along with success and with success that just naturally demands more action. Just keep moving forward for the prize at the goal line. There is always a reward from hard work and effort no matter how I look at it. Follow through is also believing in myself. Everyone should do that!
My to do list for The Turf Byrd's consists of swiping the card to prevent from getting charged $30.00 from the bank for not making a swipe. Go figure? $30.00 for not swiping the card even if an online purchase has been made. I still have to get away from my home office and get in my vehicle to go to the store and get some munchies or something like toilet paper just to save $30.00. Then if the purchase doesn't amount to some price set by the merchant then there is the fee for not spending enough money. How can one save any money with all the fees in place? What ever happened to jubilee?
Until the next blog, stay safe, strong and keep smiling.

The Turf Byrd's Are Not A Scam
Today is a new day and it is always a new blog whenever I write. That is one of the biggest secrets of growing my blog and getting exposure to the web site. The intentions with http://theturfbyrds.com/ is to get them as popular as those rocks were.
These blogs are not on an auto-copy format. Everything in here is generic though having it's guru quality. I'm not saying that all of these words are mine because I do read a lot, but what I am saying is that none of this has been copied and pasted to this blog. I have taken the time to actually read what has been written and then use what I have read to broaden my horizon. Isn't that what it is all about?
One of the main reasons to blog is to establish a relationship with you. So if there is anything you would like to suggest please leave a comment. These days there are all sorts of comments left behind on blogs from all sorts of people. Some people are giving up the good words for the web store owner and other people are there just to sabotage the web store owner. With economics today no one needs to hear bad things unless it is truly bad. True there have been some unworthy scams on the internet but there has been more than it's weight in gold of the worthy ones that are not scams but have been referred to as.
http://theturfbyrds.com/ are not a scam! As I have mentioned in another blog this is a thirty year old dream that has come real. Why did it take so long? Timing, money, personal belief, and plenty of walls that needed to be torn down. One thing I found out in research is that it is a federal offense to ship feces through the mail. So a composite had to be made to look like the real thing in order to to exactly that.
Then there is a saying that I have come up with for http://theturfbyrds.com/. Made in America - Sold in China Now let me ask you how can I sell these cow pie cuties to China if I didn't have a web site?

Attracting visitors to the web site is not that hard but because it is a web store and there is nothing for free there other than the laughs you get by just checking them out sales don't come easily.

What Is Business If You Can't Have Fun?
What is business if you can have fun with it? What is an idea if you never move forth? The idea of business has been something to move forward with in my book. That's why The Turf Byrd's are in existence today. It has all been about follow through. Isn't that what business is all about in the first place following through with what you said you are going to do?
Maybe this has taken thirty years for me to come up with the balls to actually follow through on this idea, but that is what I have done after affirming from others this is a worthwhile idea to aspire toward. The Turf Byrd's could may very well be a household name and a favorite for years to come in the novelty industry. Some people say to me stuff like, your going to be a millionaire aren't you? That is just one of saying's I have received from showing off my creation called The Turf Byrd's.
Kids love'em, adults love'em, and even older adults love'em too. I have specific orders for a certain color or one without glasses. One time I had a lady request a Turf Byrd that looks like a lady bug. So I designed and sold a lady bug Turf Byrd for seven dollars. People do buy the strangest crap and I have designed some of the strangest crap on the internet for people to buy. The Turf Byrd's are all about attitude!
One thing for sure is that I would not have gotten this far if it wasn't for all of the support I have received from my family and friends. My confidence at selling crap has swelled to say the least. To be real honest if I can sell crap that makes people smile then I could probably sell someone ocean front property in Arizona. I have been told that before too. It surprises me at some of the stuff I have sold over the years of my life. I believe that it all started when I was a paperboy for the Oregonian and Daily Journal Newspaper routes. I would always be out getting new starts, collecting money, and selling paper tubes. I was one of those paperboy's that won trips to California's Disneyland and San Francisco. I even got my name in the newspaper as paperboy of the year and ate at the Benson Hotel with Bob Packwood and Mark Hatfield. I had no idea how important that really was at the time but being recognized as a paperboy is a really rare thing, let alone being named the paperboy of the year. For what it is worth, Thanks for your support.

Free Advertising Brings Visitors To The Turf Byrd's Web Site
I don't know if this free google advertising dollars is all what it is cracked up to be. I do think it is a great way to get some exposure to a web site but are the people that click on the advertisement just clicking to be clicking or are they seriously interested in what The Turf Byrd's offer or any other site offer?
The Turf Byrd's has started a campaign six days ago and since starting the campaign we have had over 115,000 impressions and 149 clicks so far for a total of $65.02 in advertising costs. Since we have gone live we have had over 1200 hits on the site from the stats in the back office.
Craigslist and Backpages are a couple of other advertising sources The Turf Byrd's use to gain the necessary exposure to create sales on the internet. Granted the only sales that have come to The Turf Byrd's are by the way of word of mouth advertising. People do love these creative craptacular cow pie creations. It is only a matter of building enough bridges to The Turf Byrd's web site til the sales start funneling in.
The Turf Byrd's are using every source known to the internet affiliate to generate sales. The Turf Byrd's are what's crappening on the internet and can bring a smile to the most difficult people. Try it. The Turf Byrd's are the latest craze since those rocks.
Have you ever wanted to give someone some crap with a smile? Well now you can. Imagine a Turf Byrd in the teachers lounge or a professional business office. The mirth is endless and will be a conversation around the water cooler for a long time to come. Hey Joe, have you heard about the guy that made a million selling crap with a smile?
Can you imagine America actually exporting something that looks like crap to other parts of the world? That is an intention of The Turf Byrd's business plan. You see we buy so much crap from other countries The Turf Byrd's figure why not sell some back? The Turf Byrd's have put smiles on some of the most difficult people. It is amazing to see the faces light up upon seeing and even hearing about The Turf Byrd's.
One day an autistic kid seen The Turf Byrd's and just had to have one. His face was shining brighter than the moon an a beautifully clear night. And again this guy with cerebral palsy liked them so much that he wanted a special order of an all red one. Probably because of the color he turned from laughing so hard from seeing The Turf Byrd's for the first time. This is just good business.

The Turf Byrd's - PPC Ad Campaign Gets Great Results Overnight
The Turf Byrd's started a PPC Ad campaign with adwords and received great results overnight. One campaign and two ads received over 14,000 impressions and 28 clicks that resulted in $12.56 worth of PPC advertising costs. Granted this was in about a 10 hr period of time.
Keywords are a big factor as well as writing good ad content. I have read that it is wise to have the ad content be relevant to the URL. So the URL should be in the main subject line of the ad as well as one of the two lines beneath the main subject ad line.
Find out what words are identified in the search that are relevant to your ad and use those as your keywords. Make sure that your bid is within your budget. Some keywords can be rather expensive when paying for clicks to your web site. Do your due diligence and use all of the free tools that google has to offer. Make use of the advertising dollars that come in the mail. Every little bit helps and if google is so rich they can give away advertising dollars then I say scoop up on all the free stuff available.
By all means don't let the internet intimidate you from reaching any of your PPC advertising goals. The more stuff that you have out there on the internet the better chances that your business will get seen and used. One thing for sure is that you will never know what you can do until you do it. The thought maybe there but until it is applied it is only just a thought. Action does speak louder than words and knowledge is useless unless it is applied. Responsibility is bigger than it is spelled.
Benefits of action are results, results open more possibilities, possibilities lead to more success, success demands more action.
