Now remember, Google AdWords is a pay per click (PPC) model, which means that somebody out there paid $99.44 for the privilege of getting a single user click to their website or landing page.

		<description><![CDATA[For the past few weeks we have been thinking of a campaign theme for Beyondus. We wanted something that could be carried throughout all forms of marketing, the website, newsletters, etc. I came up with the idea “Define Yourself” because we are a company that helps businesses define themselves via marketing. We were all excited because we were going to use a dictionary theme in the website and mailing pieces. We were even going to utilize a typewriter-style font and make the About Us section look like dictionary references. However, to our dismay, that tagline was already trademarked. So we have been discussing alternative slogans – ones that can still use the dictionary theme and convey the message that Beyondus can help you define your company. How does “Define Your Presence” sound?<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=beyondusdesign.wordpress.com&amp;blog=1580997&amp;post=183&amp;subd=beyondusdesign&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
