Wisdomology Pro members are helping professionals, coaches, authors, healers, speakers, artists, and community leaders of all kinds. What unites them is their commitment to helping people grow in wisdom.

By becoming a Pro Member you will become instantly visible to a large community of wisdom seekers. All Wisdomology members and visitors are

• actively seeking insight, inspiration and personal growth
• value wisdom, meaning and self improvement
• understand the benefits of growing in knowledge
• are very likely to be looking for the kind of expertise you offer.

What would it be worth to you to present yourself in a powerful way to this group of people, and to be able to have direct, personal conversations with them?

Typically the way a professional in our field grows their business is by 1) word of mouth 2) direct one-on-one discussions or 3) advertising. The first two are labor-intensive, and require you to find the right people to have conversations with. The third is just plain expensive, and unless you know how to write ads and where to buy ad units, could end up wasting resources. Wisdomology brings the people together who are most likely to be interested in your services (i.e. we do the marketing & advertising - #3), gives you a way to show your expertise and strike up conversations (#2), and gives people a forum to talk about you (#1).

We've created a powerful Web 2.0 presence for you:

• eMarketing, strong branding, and publicity on the front end to bring people to the site
• extremely attractive & unique look to engage users and build word of mouth
• user-generated content to provide self-expression and infinite variety (i.e. stickiness)
• send-to-friend & eCards to create viral emails from any content
• email-integrated discussion - notifications of new content directly to email
• a weekly newsletter to bring the most compelling new features to their inbox
• social bookmarking (digg, del.icio.us, etc) to spread the word amongst the entire internet

If you spent the same $19.95 on search engine marketing, you could probably buy about 60 clicks (assuming $0.33/click). Then your website has to be attractive enough to convert 1 in 60 visits to a paying customer/client in any given month.

If you spend a similar monthly fee for a newsletter service, you communicate your ideas with just text and photos. With a Wisdomology Pro Membership, you'll be able to communicate your ideas with flash animation and with music, which is not only more emotionally appealing, it has great potential for "viral" marketing appeal.

Your Wisdomology Pro Membership provides you

• A Pro Membership Profile that immediately identifies you as a Pro Member, building your visibility and credibility by association with the Wisdomology brand
• Full contact info for your business - phone, email, address - so people can contact you immediately
• A link directly to your website - great for direct referrals, and search engine optimization
• All the Saffron (premium) features: publishing, full music & animations, custom photos...
• A platform for publishing rich multimedia content integrated into a community which is looking for insight. Blogs, and even YouTube, can't do that for you.
• The ability to create highly engaging, attractive, and emotional content. People are most motivated to take action (for example, contact you), when their whole self is engaged. Wisdomology content uses beautiful visuals, animation and music to engage the mind, heart, and soul.

Thank you for the good work you're doing in the world. May you easily and joyfully reach the ideal customers and clients to create maximum mutual benefit.
