In Response To: Markets for quotations? (sandy)

Hi Sandy,

"Markets for quotations"...

Here's a possible idea. How about creating motivational quotes screensavers?

You can read Brent Whinfield's post on creating screensavers here...

http://www.sowpub.com/cgi-bin/forum/webbbs_config.pl/read/24160

(and his followup to that post, in the same thread).

How about adapting the idea to motivational quote screensavers? You could create several versions, with the quotes targeted at different markets... For example, motivational quotes for entrepreneurs, motivational quotes for writers, motivational quotes for students, motivational quotes for lawyers, etc.

You could combine the quotes with motivational pictures as backgrounds for each quote...

Another way this could be used is as a promotional item. Create the motivational quotes screensaver, targeted at your usual target market, and offer it for free. Put your logo on the page along with each quote along with your web site address, and use it to help promote your business!

Here's a business doing a similar idea... They're giving away a screensaver with "love quotes", as a sideline...

Or, another variant... a "Ten Love Poems For You" screensaver, being sold for $9.95...

Hmmm... :)
