Can you find the recipes in this picture? 

 

From: Dana Jones

To: My Fellow Recipe Collectors :

Does the front of your refrigerator look something like this?

Do you have more stuff on the outside of your refrigerator than inside?

Do you save recipes from the daily paper, magazines, backs of boxes, or cans and put them than on your fridge fully intending to try them out, but you never do because you can't find the darn things?

If you have ever had kids or know someone with kids, I bet you know exactly what I'm talking about. I  have seen many a refrigerator that look JUST like this one and guess what? The picture above is of *MY REFRIGERATOR* and if you can figure out where the recipes are, then you have either been in my house, or you are an extremely gifted individual!

One day not so long ago, I was sitting at my kitchen table, staring at my refrigerator trying to figure out what I should be doing at that particular moment when I thought to myself "I really need to get my recipes organized somehow so I might actually use them." There were at least 30 of them being held together with a bag clip that I kept adding to week-after-week and forgetting were there.

So, I decided that I would get those recipes typed and organized so I would be more likely to use them.  But first, I popped in on several different cooking forums to see how other people kept their recipes organized.

What I found was pretty interesting...

"I keep all my recipes neatly organized on 3 x 5 cards in an handy recipe box, but many of them were hand-written years ago and are getting really hard to read. I would like to get them on my computer, but I never seem to find the time..."
 
"My family recipes are both hand-written and typed on recipe cards, but over the years they are getting pretty gross with all the stains on them--I wish I had the time to re-type them..."
 
"I bought a software program to put all my recipes in, but I never seem to find the time to use it..."
 
"I have one of those programs to organize my recipes in and it's pretty neat, but I just don't have the time..."
 
"I've tried using one of those recipe organization programs, but it is just too cumbersome and time-consuming..."
 
"I glue recipes I've saved from newspapers and magazines onto colored construction paper and keep them in a 3-ring binder, but some of the recipes are only on 2 x 2-inch piece of paper and I have a hard time reading them. I know I could get them enlarged on a copier, but I don't have time to mess around with that..."
 
"I would love to get all of my family recipes into a cook book that I can give away as gifts at our next family reunion, but I have no time..."

There's a problem here...

It  seems that people want to get their recipes better organized, but time is a luxury they just don't seem to have. So, they keep putting it off and putting it off and before long, they resign themselves to the fact that it just isn't going to get done.

Well, if you are someone who has been struggling with the same problem as the people whose comments appear in the purple box above, I have the solution!

How does it work?

1. Gather up all those hand written recipe cards, soup can wrappers, photos, newspaper and magazine articles.

2. Go to the Red-E-Recipes Subscriber Management Page and select which format or formats you would like to receive your recipes in.

3. Shortly after you have submitted your request, you will receive detailed information and instructions.

4. Once my team has received your recipes, we will provide you with an estimated completion date.

5. Soon, you will receive your professional-quality digital cook book, printed cook book, or CD.

That's all there is to it!

What does a digital cook book look like?

Digital books or "eBooks" as they are more commonly referred to look more or less like a normal instructional book, but they don't take up space on your shelves and they don't collect dust! One thing I have noticed is that many of the eBooks being marketed are very poorly written and are often full of typo's and grammatical errors. I recently paid $35.00 for a collection of eBooks and all of them had really obvious formatting problems and apparently the word processing programs used to create them did not have a spell-check feature.

Honestly, some of the eBooks I have seen look like they were written by a 12-year-old. What's worse, is people are paying good money for them because they don't get to see the book until after they have paid for it! Well, I promise you that your digital or printed cook book will be thoroughly and carefully checked for typo's, grammatical errors and formatting consistency before it is sent to you because I know that you expect a quality product for your money, just as much as I do!

How much does it cost?

In a professional marketing class I participated in a few months ago, I was told that the highly personalized nature of the product I am offering was worth AT LEAST $100 per hour! That seemed like an awful lot to charge to me, so  I asked my friends, family, and a bunch of people I don't even know what they felt a reasonable fee would be for this type of service.

Approximately half said they would be willing to pay $2.00 - $4.00 per recipe and the other half said they would be willing to pay $4.00 - $6.00 per recipe. A very small number of people said they would pay up to $10 per recipe, so I guess that $100 per hour figure isn't completely out of the question...

However, I'm not going anywhere NEAR that number.I'm not even going to charge $2.50 per recipe...yet.

For a limited time, my recipe organization services will be available for the low price of NOT $2.00, NOT $1.50, NOT EVEN $1.00 ...but  JUST $.97 PER RECIPE until December 31, 2008!!!

Don't miss out on this opportunity because I can guarantee you the price is going to at least double after the first of the year!!
