The top candidates normally have to go through an interview and trial lecture before the final ranking of the applicants.

Formal procedures for appointment to permanent scientific positions are given in “Rules for Appointments to Professorships and Associate Professorships�,
http://www.uio. no/admhb/ reglhb/personal/ tilsettingvitens kapelig/rulesapp ointprofessor. xml

Sell More Online With A Professional Shopping Cart Versus An 800#

Sell More Online With A Professional Shopping Cart Versus An 800#

In today’s world, people expect to pay for products and services online. After spending money to get someone interested in your product and to your website, focusing on the purchase process can have the greatest benefit to your business.

I was absolutely shocked when I checked out a new client’s website. He is an author who wants to sell more books. But he doesn’t have an online shopping cart! He expects people to call his 800 number and give him their credit card number over the phone. He also asks people to send checks to his post office box. While both calls to action might seem normal, they are so 1980! People expect to pay online and for the purchase process to be quick and easy.


Here Are 7 Reasons to Use a Professional Online Shopping Cart Instead of An 800#

1. People live in dozens of different time zones. Do you want to answer the phone at 2 a.m. your time because someone in England is having her first cup of coffee and wants to order your product?

2. People shop on weekends. I don’t know about you, but I’d rather be out in my kayak on a weekend than sitting by the phone waiting for a product order.

3. Telephone tag. Let’s say you just appeared on a talk radio show and people are calling to order your product or service. They will get a busy signal since you can talk to only one person at a time. You’ll find that you have to call back a dozen people. If this happens, you run the risk of playing telephone tag - and possibly never connecting with them.

4. Expensive phone charges. When you return phone calls, you risk paying long-distance rates including international phone calling rates. Your cost of taking the order just jumped through the roof.

5. Too much time, not enough money. When you take orders over the phone, you have to be nice. There’s nothing wrong with being nice, but you have to engage people in a conversation: How’s the weather? Where are you calling from? How long have you been interested in this topic? If you don’t ask questions like this, people will think you are rude and might not want to buy your product! This all takes time.

6. When you only take order over the phone, you have to sell the person, not just take the order. Many companies are not comfortable selling on the phone. Or they are bad at asking for the order. You could blow the sale.

7. Too many mistakes. It is all too easy to misspell the person’s name, mailing address or credit card number. I call this unintentional dyslexia. You think you typed in “54″ and you said “54″ to the client, but you really wrote “45.”

If you had an online shopping cart, you’d solve all these problems! Add an online shopping cart to your website today and you will sell more products and services while protecting your time and energy. And, it’s very easy to get started.

Just go to www.prleads.com/meos for a special report on how to choose a shopping cart. You’ll even find information on how to get started today! Author and Serial Internet business entrepreneur, Dan Janal has built multiple six-figure income businesses using MyEasyOnlineStore.com.

How to Get $27 in 10 Minutes or Less!

September 4, 2008

How to Get $27 in 10 Minutes or Less!
What if I tell you can make $27 in 10 minutes or less?!

This is not a crap! I’ve been paid. If you want proof because you have this notion of “to see is to believe“, then I just have the proof you needed!

I made $27 in less than 10 minutes from AWSURVEYS. I had read so many bad things about AWSURVEYS. That it’s a scam and that many were not paid. But I still gave it a try. It’s free to join so I don’t lose any. So after less than 10 minutes of joining this survey program, I have earned $27. That was really fast money. Then it’s about waiting to get paid.. But I got paid straight to my Paypal. So in so far as I am concerned it’s not scam site. People may tell me otherwise. But as long as this survey program continues to pay me, I will promote it and make more money from it. To learn more about this survey program just visit their site and avail of the free $6 Sign Up Welcome Survey!
