Hi Sandy,

> "Markets for quotations"...

> Here's a possible idea. How about creating

> 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...
