One of the things all self-employed, work-from-home Internet entrepreneurs have to do at least once in a while is advertise. I don’t spend money on advertising very often, because I hate spending money, but occasionally I see an opportunity that is worthwhile.

Obviously, getting a good return on your advertising investment is something everyone wants to achieve. Once in a blue moon, however, I don’t even think about the ROI. Sometimes, an advertising opportunity is good no matter how well it ends up paying off. How is that possible?

When you purchase advertising, and all of the money is donated to charity, that’s a good return on your investment already. Never underestimate the power of good will. Donating to worthy charities is good ROI all on its own, and if you get the added bonus of attracting users to your web site, that’s great!

In case you were unaware, I am a staff columnist for Personal Branding Magazine. All proceeds of the magazine are donated to the American Cancer Society. That’s 100% of the proceeds, including all of the advertising revenue. The magazine still has some ad spots available for its next issue which is being published on November 1, 2007, and the prices are incredibly reasonable. You can contact Adam Salamon at aasalamon@gmail.com to arrange for your own ad spot.

If you are interested in getting a great ad spot for a good price, and donating to charity as well, please consider an ad in Personal Branding Magazine. Sure, that sounds like a sales pitch, but it’s actually just good advice.
