Articles
Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry’s standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
e-Commerce
e-Commerce – Leveraging our web properties and e-mail subscriber files, we endeavor to create niche on-line stores.
Facts: There were $1.221 trillion in U.S. e-Commerce sales in 2013, according to eMarketer data. The research firm estimates that number hit $1.445 trillion in 2014. e-Commerce grew by 17.1% in 2013 and was expected to grow by about 18.3% in 2014 with double-digit growth projected through 2017. This growth is aided by the increase in tablet and mobile users and advanced shipping and payment options.
We launched our first e-Commerce craft store in 2010. CutRateCrafts.com stocks over 130,000 SKUs and offers everyday low discounted prices.
In 2013, we began selling and distributing books we create and publish through the Amazon and Apple stores. Each month over 181,000 consumers download our cooking and crafting eBooks to enjoy on their tablet and mobile devices through the iTunes and Kindle stores. Here are a few popular craft and recipe books for you to enjoy.
We launched two premium digital content magazines in 2014, I Like Crochet and I Like Knitting. Each magazine produces six issues annually, filled with high-quality patterns from designers and companies, how-to articles, pattern tips and instructional videos. Consumers can subscribe or buy single issues at our websites and via the Apple iTunes Store.
Communications
DMA Insight says that 99% of us check our e-mails every day, and in fact the typical person checks his/her e-mail 20 times every day. When the only way to get e-mail was on your desktop computer, people would check it periodically. But now that e-mail is available 365/24/7 on your smartphone, people have actually expanded their use of e-mail. And according to E-Marketer, the median ROI of e-mail marketing is four times greater than any other digital marketing channel.
Consumer Marketing
There is a growing sophistication of Internet users, who are spending less time at portals and directly seeking specialized content at more focused sites. The consumer market is clearly fragmenting.
Broadcasting
Not too long ago CBS, NBC and ABC networks controlled over 90% of all broadcast dollars due to their mass consumer reach. As cable television gave consumers choice, networks share of broadcast dollars declined. Today, this number continues to fall and network television gets less than 50% of broadcast advertising dollars. As well, television has lost broadcast dollars to other media, primarily the Internet.
