Slumdog Millionaire - It is written
Jamal Malik, an 18 year-old orphan from the slums of Mumbai is about to experience the biggest day of his life. With the whole nation watching, he is just one question away from winning a staggering 20 million rupees on India's "Who Wants to be a Millionaire?". But when the show breaks for the night, police arrest him on suspicion of cheating. Jamal proves his innocence by telling the story of his life in the slum where he and his brother grew up. Each chapter of his story reveals the key to the answer to each one of the game show's questions. When the new day dawns and Jamal returns to answer the final question, the Inspector and sixty million viewers are about to find out... I was surfing on Youtube and found the song is very catchy. Hope you will enjoy it too. It’s a good to watch. I am not really a movie fan but I do highly recommend the show to anyone. It shows the harsh reality of life in India and made me count my blessing in life. We all have own struggles in life. How we go through in life and how we live our lives, there is always a story to tell. I remember that Singapore was similar to that back in 50’s to 60s (forgot how long ago it was but way before my time) where there are a lot of slum areas and how my great grand parents had to suffer through to get the urban lifestyle in Singapore. Yesterday I had shown my unsuccessful attempt in clickbank and how I can’t even make a sale. I don’t know how the lady does it but i guess we do need to spend more time in learning how to get to the first page of the Adwords to have any impact. I guess she will not really want to tell the secret of her success. I can’t blame her since there is money concern. Up to date no reply (over a month) and I am totally fed up to even try emailing her ever again. Maybe it will work for people who just want to make a quick buck or two but what i feel that if compared to long term running, i don’t see any benefits to do this. I would agree it’s a starting platform for me to learn how internet marketing works and find my own style to make some money online. After 1 month, what did i learnt: 1) Harsh Reality of Adwords – Cost of Advertising 2) Google Adwords will be always improving the quality page 3) Small Business owners will have a harder time to fight with the big boys – competition 4) Resources, products, services and feedback – Constant Improvement 5) What makes customers want to buy your product? To Hit the button buy I just realise that why some famous “gurus” from the internet marketing are going for crazy offers of their products as the competition is getting more lately. Maybe If i had started earlier, well i would be just earning from e-book and enjoy the fruits of labour. I will never know. Since I had started to want to do this, i have to accept whatever harsh reality comes along. I had been very careful as I don’t want to overspend on something that don’t seem to be useful. After trying these freebies, nothing is really free. The word “Free” is just something to attract everyone to see what they have to offer. It’s the way to get people attention is to provide something Free. I do agree that is how i went on to buy some of the products online but so far i am quite sadly disappointed. It didn’t help me to solve those items as I had mentioned above. What I do need is something to solve my problem with my products if I have ever really going to start my business. I always ask myself this question, what is enough to get the top spot of the advertising first place and what is important? How much can you think for relevant words to make it to the top? I was posting these questions to the lady and not even a decent reply back. Is that called good after sales services? Just selling that e-book and that is it? What do we need to do to get earn something? I know that she will never reply because she wouldn’t want to tell you the answer to her rice bowl. Or we need to learn the hard way before getting the rewards? Quest to find the answer to my problem 1 : How to get the top spot in advertising and not spending too much for it in order to get profit? Best Regards,
