&lt;BR&gt;&lt;B&gt;It&#8217;s time to get serious!&lt;/B&gt;

TheMarketingTeacher and PrepSportsBiz have offered a variety of products and services over the years and we are about to make the most significant change in the history of these companies.  We are pleased to introduce 24Seven--the singular source for continuous improvement developed specifically for Marketing Teachers and DECA Advisors.

We are going to combine everything we do into ONE incredible membership package that will make our 24Seven the only site you will need to teach marketing, management and entrepreneurship and be an effective DECA Advisor!

&lt;B&gt;24Seven, the new member&#8217;s only site will include:&lt;/B&gt;

&lt;BR&gt;
&lt;B&gt;Kwiknotz:&lt;/B&gt;  information, activities, articles and everything you need to compliment your textbook for the following topics: Distribution, Market Segmentation and Demographics, Behavioral, Marketing Plan, Pricing, Product Planning, Promotion, Cause Marketing, Email Marketing, Green Marketing, Guerilla Marketing, Sampling, Sponsorship, Word of Mouth Marketing, eCommerce, Marketing Trends, New Media, Personal branding, Product placement, SWOT Analysis, Virtual Advertising, Branding, Packaging and Labeling, Customer Service, Entrepreneurship, Ethics, International Marketing, Management, and Sales.

The following are specific to Sports Marketing: Ambush Marketing, Marketing Plans, Game Operations, Sponsorship, Entertainment, Promotion, eMarketing, and Ticket Sales.

Multiple time each week you will find new content in the form of links to web sites, eBooks, industry samples, case studies, articles, project ideas and more!

A few examples:  a template for conducting a SWOT analysis, a sample customer profile survey, an eBook from Seth Godin, an example of a sponsorship proposal, and more.  You get the idea!

If you subscribed to Kwiknotz as a stand-alone product you will be upgraded to a lifetime membership.

&lt;B&gt;Friendly Technology:&lt;/B&gt;  We will continue to provide you with the latest in useful (and fun) technology that is, or should be, of particular interest to marketing and business teachers.

On an almost daily basis we scour the internet for programs (primarily web-based) that we feel would be of use to Marketing teachers and DECA Advisors. These programs fall into a variety of categories including photo, music, video, e-learning, collaboration, blogging, business, communication and more.

In most cases, the programs are free, or very inexpensive. 

Want some examples?  We have covered programs that help you edit photos, build a web site, send text messages, create an online business card, create auto-reminders, automate slide presentations, video conferencing, easy ways to embed videos, and more!

&lt;B&gt;Videos:&lt;/B&gt;  Visit our site for a continually changing list of online marketing-related videos to enhance your instruction.  Many will be embedded in our site to avoid the blocking concerns of sites such as YouTube.

We specifically search for videos that are great discussion starters and provide insight that is both current and relevant&#8212;and that might not be available in a textbook.  Most are not the &#8220;let the video run as I get work done&#8221; variety.  They are generally shorter and great for introducing a topic or supporting what you have taught.

&lt;B&gt;News:&lt;/B&gt;  There will be news feeds for the major areas of study taught by marketing teachers.  Check this page regularly for headlines and links to the articles.

We will generate the headlines and categorize the articles to make them more easily and quickly accessible for you.  Just click the headline and you will go directly to the article.

Check out this section when you need something timely for your lecture.  Or, when you need a change of pace in your lesson. Have you ever had to teach a topic and wish you knew a bit more about it?  No need to worry about that anymore.

&lt;B&gt;FREE Stuff:&lt;/B&gt;  One of our most popular features.  Here is a place to find downloads of all kinds, particularly eBooks.  If you find it here&#8212;it&#8217;s FREE. No catches. No fine print.  Just download it and use it.  And if you want, pass it onto other teachers who could use them.

The internet, as you know, has a wealth of information.  eBooks are among the best sources of material that we can sue in our classes.  Let us do the searching&#8212;you have more important things to do.

Past freebies have included: Marketing Mismatch: When New Won&#8217;t Work with Old, The Six Core Values of Innovation, Seduced By Success: How the Best Companies Survive the 9 Traps of Winning, The Future is Here and It is Bright: What Are We Waiting For?, What Must Starbucks Do?, This I Believe by Tom Peters, You are Being Lied To and Other Truths, Maximizing the Value of Sponsorship, Case Study of Audi Sport Sponsorship, 25 Ways to Distinguish Yourself, Sticky Note Success: 25 Self-Motivating Messages to Pump Up Productivity and Stimulate Sales,  Let Me Ask Ya This:55 Great Questions to Ask Someone You Just Met., 203 Things I&#8217;ve Learned About Writing, Marketing and Selling Books, 66 Priceless Pieces of Business Advice I Couldn&#8217;t Live Without, 234 Things I&#8217;ve Learned About Creating, delivering and Marketing Speeches and more.

&lt;B&gt;Best Practices:&lt;/B&gt;  Activities, assignments, projects and more.  As we run across teacher-developed best practices we will share them with you on our site.  

New for next year:  a public site so you can upload your best ideas&#8212;or download the ideas of others. No catch. Not one.  Visit the site, see what you like, then download it.  Of course, we hope you have something to share and decide to upload that as well.   But it&#8217;s up to you. As successful as our Best Practices eBooks have been (three volumes) we are discontinuing them in favor of this free site.

&lt;B&gt;DECA News:&lt;/B&gt;  Check out our links to news coverage of local chapters and information that will allow you to be an even more effective advisor.  We spend a lot of time being an advisor&#8212;but little time being trained to be more effective.  We&#8217;ll do what we can to help out.  

What is happening in other Chapters?  What gets them in the news?  Need an article on leadership for your Chapter officers&#8212;look no further.  Have a suggestion?  Let us know and we will see if we can find a resource that addresses your needs.

We&#8217;ll include articles on leadership as well as teaching leadership.  Study tips for your students, and links to what is happening in other Chapters so you can steal a few ideas!

&lt;B&gt;Recommend Reading:&lt;/B&gt;  We&#8217;ll recommend books, magazines and web sites that we find of particular interest and use to you.  And, we&#8217;ll welcome your recommendations as well. We need to count on all members of the Marketing Education community.

Who has time (or money) to invest in a book only to find out it really wasn&#8217;t worth it.  When we find one that is worth the effort&#8212;we&#8217;ll let you know.

&lt;B&gt;What about Sports Marketing?&lt;/B&gt;
That&#8217;s where it all began for us so there will be plenty on this site for those who teach sports marketing.  The original eWeekly will be replaced with a web-based version included in the membership price of this site.

We will still include the traditional article links and discussion starters, but there will be so much more!  With this new format we will include downloadable eBooks and files, industry samples, video, audio, and more.  Think eWeekly on steroids!  (OK, so it&#8217;s not a great analogy for a sports-related product--but you get the point!)

Here is another piece of good news&#8212;since the news items/discussion starters will now be posted on the web there will be a build it archives. Don&#8217;t worry about losing the email&#8212;past items will be safe and sound on the web site!

Sport Marketing is one of my favorite topics. You can count on getting plenty of resources from my 15 years of teaching the course, during which time I have collected and developed a lot of materials and contacts!
