Hello,

I enjoyed my visit to lowfatliving.com and found many areas of interest around which I would base my marketing campaign. The site nicely combines interactivity (quiz), educational information and recipes; topics of interest to many online visitors.

My plan would focus on:

· Submissions to email discussion groups
· Postings to Newsgroups
· Direct email campaign to appropriate WWW sites.

I would promote the following "sizzle" to bring visitors to the site;

· "Test Your Skillpower" ………an invitation to take our quiz
· Low fat recipes……………….Plan your next meal
· Bonus Gifts
~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I would join and monitor the following email discussion groups, posting to the group and following threads.
