| business christmas decorating ideas: Planet Christmas Chuck Smith, 2005-10-20 The art of decorating an evergreen tree in one's home is as well established as the tradition of giving presents. But in recent years another trend has started – that of decorating the outside of the house and garden with lights and assorted decorations and it is becoming more popular with every passing year. This small format picture-based book will showcase the best (or rather the worst) in excessive decorations from around the world – from the greatest number of lights to the tallest inflatables – a delight for all connoisseurs of bad taste. Each of the entries features a caption from the proud homeowner. A short selection are listed below : “We have many beautiful homes in our area and unfortunately these homes are rarely decorated. My wife says its because people are not as 'fanatical' as my son and I. Also, the $500 light bill in January may be a deterrent to some… Ouch! But you have to do this from the heart and for no other reason...” Michael Wright, Fayetteville, Tennessee, USA “I’m on a balcony, so my display isn’t very big, but I can accomplish much brightness and computerized synchronicity. I do it to show off and provoke more tenants to decorate – I like to imagine the whole apartment block sprayed with lights. Overdecorated balconies are funny. I love lights - they seem to bring out the best in people. I also decorate my jackets and hats with LED lights to accessorise with my balcony. It gets the neighbors talking.What do my family and friends think about it? They try not to (only my husband enjoys it… to a point), they think I'm mental!” Llori Stein, Falls Church, Virginia, USA |

For all its merriment, Christmas can also bring melancholy—and in Magic Springs, Idaho, Mia finds that the season has brought her an unhappy ghost who’s pulling poltergeist-style pranks to get her attention. When she demands an explanation, the ghost just sends a message: Ask Mary Alice—that is, Mia’s beloved Grans, who’s been training her to develop her witchy talents. If anyone can figure this out, it’s Grans . . . even if she still hasn’t managed to free Mia’s cat from a previous spell that she cast. The restless spirit turns out to be Magic Spring’s most well-known ghost, Dorothy, who supposedly died peacefully in her sleep. Now Dorothy claims she was murdered, and she wants her killer brought to justice. And she doesn’t have much patience about it, so the pressure is on Mia—with some help from her boyfriend, Trent, and a strangely secretive Grans. There aren’t many dicing-and-chopping days till Christmas—but this year, the most important gift Mia can give is to cheer up this troubled spirit . . . Includes Recipes!

| business christmas decorating ideas: Pinterest Profit Secrets 2021 Edition Training Guide Laura Maya, 2021-10-30 Is Pinterest the New Google? Google is a search engine. That means whatever you’re looking for, you can Google it. From obscure song lyrics to ‘how to hem pants’ you can Google a term or phrase and find videos, images, and links to relative content. Sort of like Google, Pinterest is a visual search engine. Pinterest uses a visual platform of images that stand alone as content but also link to resources for deeper and richer information and engagement. Like Google, you can use key words and phrases to search for relative content. Even better than Google, you can save your links or pins to boards which are a helpful way to organize content. Googling a word or phrase can generate the top ten or so articles, images, and other content relative to that search. Many of the results are paid ads which rank higher than organic content. Pinterest; however, can generate many more results from a search and each and every image offered can lead to a deeper dive experience about a subject or related topic. In this way, Pinterest may be better than Google for specific searches. Can Pinterest be Used for Business? When it comes to certain topics like recipes, DIY, and business topics, Pinterest can be a gold mine. As a user, Pinterest is an excellent way to find relative content quickly and save it for use down the line. If you’re a content creator, Pinterest is an excellent way to showcase your goods and services and attract customers easier and more effectively than you might have exclusively with Google. It’s also superior to social media platforms like Instagram that don’t allow links on posts. Pinterest is actually one of the largest drivers of traffic to websites in the world. Many people think Pinterest is used mainly by women or worry their target audience isn’t using the social media platform. Both are false, Pinterest demographics include all genders and ages and Pinterest has been found to be more effective at leading people to content than other platforms like Twitter. Optimizing your Website and Your Pinterest Account Makes Sense Everyone knows website optimization is vital to being discovered on the web. It doesn’t make sense to invest resources in blogging or creating content if it’s lost in the ether. Most people take steps to optimize their sites for SEO or search engine optimization, to increase the likelihood their content is found. It’s the same with Pinterest. You can take simple steps to create images, descriptions, and links to your content so they land in front of more people and pop up under relavant searches. It makes sense to use Pinterest for business as there is limitless potential to convert more browsers to buyers, engage more customers, and promote your business with people looking for what you have to offer. |

| business christmas decorating ideas: 101 Businesses You Can Start with Less Than One Thousand Dollars Heather L. Shepherd, 2007 According to a study by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, people starting their working careers will face the following situation when they retire age at age 65: they will have annual incomes between $4,000.00 and $26,000.00. According to the Social Security Administration, today's retirees can only count on corporate pensions and Social Security for 61 percent of their income at retirement. The remainder must come from other sources. If the same holds true in the future, todays workers need to accumulate enough in personal savings to make up a 39 percent shortfall in their retirement income. The solution for many after they have played enough golf and caught enough fish will be to start a small part-time business. Detailed in this new book are over 100 business ideas that can be started for very little money and yet may provide retired people with a lot more money than they would earn being paid by the hour. This is a collection of businesses selected especially for retirees who are interested in augmenting their income. These businesses can be started with minimum training and investment and are all capable of producing extra income. |
