Answer Upon - The RSS Feed - The Template File (Part Three of the Series on RSS)
The “P” Word.Closing is all about helping car customers make positive decisions. It is not about pressure or manipulation.Your customers need help overcoming the “P” word. Procrastination! Procrastination is natural when it comes to making a buying decision. Your customer is trying to avoid making a mistake! They fear making payments on the wrong car or truck. Fear makes cowards of us all!The question they need help with… “Is this the right vehicle for me…. regardless of the price?”Until this question is decided positively, your customer will procrastinate.Unfortunately, some sales consultants just don’t get it. They keep pounding the other ‘P’ words… price or payments.Your key to success?Take away the fear factor and you take away the procrastination.So land your prospect on the ‘right vehicle’ and you eliminate fear. Focus on asking effective, quality questions, listen, probe and then select a vehicle that is the closest you have to meeting their needs. If the ‘best available vehicle’ is not perfect so what? You seldom have the exact vehicle in stock. Therefore present what you have that is similar and use it to sell what your client wants.Do a P

As you can see the file follows a logical template drilling down from:
Today, there are people out there that all they want is to work a typical day of 9am-5pm. All these people really want is the job security. People feel comfortable not having to think and worry where their next paycheck is going to come from. These people probably don’t take many risks in their lives. However, for those who aspire to become an entrepreneurial he/she will be willing to take risks at all costs.Starting a business can become very stressful. You have to worry about legal issues, business plans, marketing, and advertising. All these take a toll on a person. You have to be constantly motivated, and passionate about your business. You have to give it all you got and to move forward. Lets be realistic here. There are going to be up’s and down’s when ever your starting your own business.Being an entrepreneurial myself, I learned to “create milestones.” So, what do I mean by creating milestones? Good questions! Creating milestones is like creating goals for yourself. These can be short-term goals, or long-term goals. These milestones could be as minute as “obtaining an LLC,” or “opening a business account” to “having your product in retail stores all over the United States.” By creating milestones, you

The very first thing we need to do is understand the makeup of our "rss.xml" file. Well actually the very first thing we need to do is get a template to understand the makeup. We will go from the simple to the more complicated, so don't get stressed.
First point to remember. The template below does NOT include all possible options and/or variations. We will go from simple to complex. And I do not expect anyone to be able to get all the possible permutations at one shot. What we are simply trying to do is explain the layout so you can get the schema into your head and understand the various possibilities.
Of course if you are really into discovering all the techie jargon and possibilities about XML I suggest to start off at: http://www.feedvalidator.org/docs/rss2.html. This will lead you slowly and surely into the possibilities of RSS template creation and all its permutations.
If you are a "techie" or the inner workings of HTML and XML are not a mystery to you, then the template below will be fairly self-explanatory. However, if you are new to the world of XML and especially RSS then it would be a good idea to take the few minutes to study this template and all the explanations.
One of the points to remember is that if you do a Google or Yahoo search for "RSS templates" or something along that line you will come up with a great many articles. Unfortunately, most of those articles are written on a level that demands you have some expertise in these areas. Below I am going to try and explain in "layman" terms what each entry means.
XML has its own markup language. All the commands like HTML are enclosed in <> as you can see below. Some commands demand that the "command" or "code" be placed between the < opening and the ending > such as the first line in the template:
Okay first the Template then we will begin to divide it up.

Don't get scared. It really is not as difficult as it looks. Okay now I did promise "layman" terms so here goes. Lets divide this template up into THREE sections.
Section One - Heading XML Section
Now for the next parts. It is a linear table as usually all logic in computers is. This is not the place to get into arguments of logical systems however we do think in a linear format. So there are two parts.
- Define the Channel
- Define each item in the channel
What is a Channel? Well lets look on it as how you choose to define the information you are going to put into the file. For instance if you are putting out an RSS file to get people to look at your Web Site which has information about and sells Perfume, your channel would be that. Thus the title would read:
As you can see from the template above the channel is defined by the following parameters.

know you as a tea lover, interested in enjoying the taste and flavor of a tea, sip by sip from a cup. Sometimes, you will have some more interest like ‘making a tea drink’ also. Further more, you may attempt different ways of tea making, of your own, to find out the best suited to your taste buds!You will occupy the kitchen with one or two brands of tea and try them differently to make and enjoy different kinds of tea for you and also for your friends! All these things are your passive efforts to make and enjoy the tea drink!Some people will limit their efforts only towards drinking a cup of tea made by others at home or restaurants. They will never try to make it even for the sake of fun!But, you have decided to go farther from just tasting tea for getting refreshment! Soon, you will enter into a business that will make you taste the real richness of tea and richness of money embedded inside the trade. If you are already in this business, you will not hesitate to take in more mantras to make big money!There are seven mantras (steps) to bring success into any endower; they are very much applicable to this trade also: These principles are drawn from a German concept.

Are you interested in learning how to make Money with Google Adwords? A lot of people are, and because of this, Adwords is now becoming extremely competitive. However, it's still very possible to do, as there are thousands of people that use Adwords exclusively to make their living by building their customer base and making sales every day of the week. That's right, Google Adwords runs 24 hours a day, seven days a week, unless you specify that you want to shut it down at a certain time. This means that you're making money while you're sleeping when you use Adwords. But what if you don't have your own product? Here's what you need to do.What you can do is sell other people's products and earn commissions from those sales. You can type in just about any topic imaginable into Google and find an affiliate program for it. You can visit affiliate networks such as Commission Junction, Linkshare, Performics or ClickBank and find both physical products and information products to sell. This is what's known as affiliate marketing and some people are making six figures or more each and every year using this method.If you do have your own product than the best thing you can do is to begin building your own mailin

Well, for starters, because good public relations can alter individual perception and lead to changed behaviors among your key outside audiences. And that can help business, non-profit and association managers like you achieve your managerial objectives.But remember to let the PR tacticians handle the special events, brochures and press releases. As a professional manager with public relations reporting to you, you have more important things to do.Like, for instance, planning to do something positive about the behaviors of those key external audiences of yours that most affect your operation. Especially when you persuade those important outside people to your way of thinking, then help move them to take actions that allow your department, group, division or subsidiary to succeed.Here’s a path you might follow as you put your public relations action plan in play: people act on their own perception of the facts before them, which leads to predictable behaviors about which something can be done. When we create, change or reinforce that opinion by reaching, persuading and moving-to-desired-action the very people whose behaviors affect the organization the most, the public rel

- Channel - "Hello World. This is my Channel and the overall topic we will be discussing in the Channel." (and all the info you want to give on it.)
- Item - "Hello World. I am an item in the above channel. Here is my information, my pictures, my source and where you can find me."
And remember at the end you will need the closing for both Channel and RSS:
</channel>
If you are an author or writer think of it like this:
- XML Lines describe the genre - Say "Hello World This is a book on fantasy"
- Channel Line describes the book - Say "Hello World this is a book whose title is "Randy Pandy's Perfumery"
- Item Lines describe each chapter. "Hello World this is a chapter "Seduction - The Perfect Unisex Scent"
Don't get worried yet. I am not going to leave you high and dry. In my next article I will teach you how to fill out each item in the Channel and Item declarations. When we are done with that, you should be able to create a fairly decent XML file and template.
