Training Your Downline - Now Everyone Makes Money

Filed Under making money online, life lessons, make money online, home based business, online home based business, Home Business | Posted on February 7, 2008

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting! Take care, Laura

I have fairly recently become an internet marketer and home business owner. It is not my full time job yet. It is something I have become passionate about and want to become of the best at this line of work.

Since I have a downline in my two main programs, The Berry Tree and The RIOY System, it has become increasingly important to me to make sure my downline finds success in this business. I do realize that it will affect me financially if they don’t, but in my conscience I want them to succeed for their own personal success.

I decided to do more than just worry about it though. I am making myself more responsible for their success by offering a training. I started with the basics which don’t seem so basic when you are first starting a new affiliate program.

I did not ever think of registering at business forums in order to learn more about this business. Frankly, I did not know business forums existed. My downline knows about them and I have seen them on forums and was frankly surprised and proud at the same time. The people in my downline know about starting a blog to “brand” yourself and have heard of Squidoo. They are learning basic HTML for article writing and know the long term benefits of submitting to ezines and are learning about writing a catchy resource box.

Within a few months I know many of my downline will start seeing sign ups and be advertising on their own. I have let the know the importance of speaking to their downline and offering to speak to potential downline members. Each and every one of them is learning and trying to learn more and more.

It has only been a relatively short time that I have been doing this and I am seeing such excitement amongst the great people I am working with. It is very gratifying and motivating for me because I know I am doing the right thing.

I would have loved to have this same kind of attention and I think it is the best way to do business these days. The personal touch is what is going to make a difference in the future.

Retire In One Year Update

Filed Under making money online, make money online, home based business, online home based business, Home Business | Posted on January 19, 2008

I wanted to write a great post today and I will. First though, I said I would keep you updated on my progress with the RIOY system. I have been with the program for less than 3 weeks now and today I had my second sign-up! That means that I won’t be paying for TrafficWave for another 2 months and my level 1 downline is almost full.

I don’t know about Bigorilla yet because everyone signs up under the “quick income” specialist, Linda Acosta and the money then trickles down to the members. We are supposed to earn about $20 for the first month with Bigorilla which covers that cost. I have not been with the program long enough to vouch for that though.

Essentially, I am only paying for RIOY marketing now which is $35 and well worth the money. The fact that I have had 15 leads in less than 3 weeks is pretty impressive.

The beauty of this program is that you can be in profit fairly quickly so once that happens you are free and clear and not paying monthly, only earning. What could be better than that? Sign up for more RIOY info today!

RIOY- Retire In One Year Update

Filed Under making money online, make money online, home based business, online home based business, Home Business | Posted on January 14, 2008

I told you all that I would let you know of my progress and here it is!

I am having a problem with my Bigorilla account but have written to support and I’m waiting for a response. I will make a couple of calls today about that as well.

On a more positive note, I have my first sign up today and so I will not be paying for TrafficWave this month. How exciting is that and its only been 2 weeks since I signed up.

Now I have mentioned that I am promoting this program as well so I am not taking the hands off approach. If the RIOY system continues to work this way, then we have a true winner on our hands.

I’ll keep you posted!

If any of you want to be a part of this experiment you can sign up here.

I Found What I Love To Do - Again

Filed Under making money online, life lessons, make money online, home based business, online home based business, Home Business | Posted on January 13, 2008

I never considered a career change. I am a math teacher, was inspired by one of my high school math teachers and have had some effect on students that I have taught. Being a math teacher was my calling and I loved every most aspects of my profession. I taught math while I was in the Peace Corps. I taught in American schools overseas, exclusive independent schools in the States, highly rated public schools in Westchester county in New York and now in a special act district for students with special needs.

I have learned, given and received so much from all of my experiences. I couldn’t get enough of learning more about math education and how to do a better job as a teacher.

For financial reasons, I had to find a way to supplement my income. I turned to the internet and researched the possible ways to make money online, to make money from home using skills that I know I had.

I found that I love to write and I love to market and promote. Who knew? I had somewhat of a negative view of this business because I had absolutely know understanding of what it entails. It’s all about encouragement, creativity and support. Not so different than the skills required to be a teacher….am I right?

I’ve found another profession that I love. I look forward to coming home to send out letters, write articles, answer emails, and post as a moderator on a forum.

I’m giving and receiving in a completely different way now but it is truly one of the best feelings I have had as a professional working woman.

I’m telling you that it is never too late to make a change. I love this profession and I have a new found passion for writing. The fact that others have recognized it makes it so much more encouraging and frankly, just fun!

Find what you love to do and just do it.

New Berry Tree News - Rejoice All Berry Tree Members

Filed Under making money online, make money online, home based business, online home based business, Home Business | Posted on January 13, 2008

All Berry Tree members should rejoice. In the first 8 months since the Berry Tree was introduced, the company has made over 3 million dollars and is expected to make it to the 4 million dollar mark in its first year. That is awesome news for all members and should entice a few prospective members as well.

The partnership of Nutronix, Automatic Builder and Horizons marketing has been successful and extremely prosperous for the past 8 years. Why wouldn’t their newest venture take off?

If you are considering the Berry Tree as an investment opportunity, now is absolutely the time to do it. The free trial offer is the way to go because you essentially get an extra BMC if you upgrade to a full membership within 7 days. If you want to reach your goals faster, sign up for AutomaticBuilder and keep up a monthly order with Nutronix and your tree will fill up before you know it.

Invite a few of your friends or colleagues to join and you will be taking more vacations and in my case, paying off some bills (and getting a new car)!

Do not let this opportunity pass you by!

Sign up for the Berry Tree free trial here.

Make A Connection - Make A Sale

Filed Under making money online, make money online, home based business, online home based business, Home Business | Posted on January 8, 2008

As any internet marketer knows, building and keeping your list is one of the most important ways to help your business grow. But how do you make that connection to keep the people on your list loyal?

1) Keep in touch regularly. Write an email to see if they have questions or want to know more about a program or product.

2) Give out insider information. Let them know some of the secrets to your success. Send them a welcome letter that they can use to welcome their own affiliates.

3) Send them links for free Ebooks and URLs of websites where they can attain more information on starting a successful home business.

4) Send your list a list of websites where they can advertise their sites for free. Give them all the best advertising methods they can use for as little cost as possible. They will appreciate the fact that you are not selling, but instead, helping them grow their own business.

5) Email them an interesting article that you have written or an article that might help them learn more about building their own home business. If it is not yours, make sure you credit the author!!!!

6) Give a phone number where you can be reached. This can be a little difficult for some people to digest, but a phone call could be the exact thing some people need for that extra reassurance.

7) Send them emails that have a “training program” feel. Send an email about some basic HTML or how to start a blog. This may give your list more inspiration to sign up and branch out on their own.

These connections are so important in building a rapport with your list as well as building your own reputation as a sponsor, marketer and business person. Keep the mailings simple and sincere. Do it regularly and always invite interaction. Make more sales!

RIOY-The Retire In One Year System

Filed Under making money online, make money online, home based business, online home based business, Home Business | Posted on January 6, 2008

I joined the RIOYsystem on January 1, 2008. The founder of this program guarantees that you will be making $4000 a month within a year’s time if you stick with the program. More about the guarantee later.

The RIOY program is comprised of three elements: Traffic Wave (the core program and long term money maker), Bigorilla (the quick income program) and RIOY marketing.

RIOY marketing spends thousands of dollars a month on advertising (part of your monthly fee pay for that) and when someone signs up through their advertising they are assigned to the next existing member in the rotation.

HOW THE SYSTEM ACTUALLY WORKS

Bigorilla is a 8 year old company that provides leads and networking tools and is a mix between a binary and 2 x 15 matrix. All the recruiting for Bigorilla goes through 2 people, Linda Acosta, a recruitment specialist and the founder of RIOY, Karl Green. Between those two, they recruit about 200 people a month and that money is trickled down to the members of RIOY. Currently, members of RIOY should receive about $20 after the first month and that will cover your monthly $19.95 cost. From what I have been reading, each member will see a growth in the income from Bigorilla, by about $20 a month.

As your income increases, the “quick income” specialist will contact members about additional “quick income” programs. The “quick income” programs should eventually earn you several thousand dollars a month.

TrafficWave is another established company that provides tools for network marketers such as autoresponders, adtrackers, advertising co-ops, etc. The back office and training materials are pretty extensive as well. This is the core program and takes longer to build but from what I can tell from my research, the cost of the program monthly, $17.95, is usually covered after the first 2 months. These sign ups are assigned to you so this happens for you without recruiting. Personally, I will do all the advertising I can to expedite this process! The literature states that it is quite possible to makes thousands a month from TrafficWave after a few years.

In about six months, the founders will introduce you to another core program after you are in profit and ready to truly increase your income.

Now I am going to see for myself. I have had 6 leads in 5 days, which is pretty amazing if you really haven’t even started your advertising campaign.

THE GUARANTEE

I have to admit, the guarantee is kind of funny. If you are not making $4000 a month within a year, the founder will give you a lifetime membership to a “travel club” of sorts where you will have access to over one thousand 3 and 4 star condos. With this membership, you can stay at any of these places for one week a year for $200 for the week.

So this is the story as I see it. It sounds promising to me but I will definitely keep people informed of my progress.

Check out the program here.

Take care until the next post…..Laura

The Plug In Profit Site Program - Strategies For Success

Filed Under making money online, make money online, home based business, online home based business, Home Business | Posted on January 3, 2008

Stone Evans is one the top marketers on the internet and is the founder of the Plug In Profit Site program. One of his goals is to help all the members of the Plug In Profit Site program to succeed and eventually become successful with their online business. He wrote this article, which completely explains some of the strategies for internet success. In addition, he generously gave permission for any members to publish it as well.

So read on for some priceless information on his strategies for success.

The Home Business Marketing Strategy That Has Never Failed
Copyright © Stone Evans, The Home Biz Guy
http://www.PlugInProfitSite.com/main-18494

Today I’d like to share with you the strategy I used when I
first got online many years ago to generate automated income
from home. This strategy still works today. You can use it
to sell your own products or you can use it to sell other
people’s products as an affiliate or partner. It can work
in practically any niche market. The theory is simple. Build a list of people who have given
you permission to email them about a particular topic and
then send relevant information and special offers to those
people promoting products and services that you are selling.
This is a very easy way to make money. The first thing you need to do this is a tool called an
autoresponder. An autoresponder is simply a tool that
collects subscribers for you and gives you the ability to
email those people in mass. For example, with an
autoresponder you can type an email message saying anything
you want, load it into a field that looks just like the text
area you type any normal email into, click Send, and your
message will be delivered to all your subscribers instantly
addressing each one on a first name basis. This could be
just 10 people or it could be thousands, even millions.

When you use an autoresponder to send a message promoting a
product you are selling to a targeted group of subscribers,
you have a very good chance of making sales if what you are
offering is something that your subscriber database is
interested in.

From my point of view, a lot of the information and systems
available online which try to help people make money are
over-complicated and often mis-guided. The same simple
formula for making money online that worked for me (someone
with no previous experience) almost 10 years ago is still
working today and it’s very, very simple to apply. In fact,
I’ll walk you through the steps I use (and so do many, many
others) to pull in automatic profits 24 hours a day, 7 days
a week, 365 days a year like clockwork.

The first thing you need is an autoresponder. You don’t
even need your own website for this. There are many good
autoresponders on the market. One that I use is called
GetResponse which you can take a look at:
http://www.FreeGetResponse.com . This is the autoresponder
I use to deliver my Home Business Secrets Mini-Course at:
http://www.PlugInProfitSite.com/main-18494 As you’ll see if you subscribe at the site above, my free
mini-course will be delivered to you automatically by email
as if it’s written to you personally. This takes no effort
from me (other than writing the messages in the first place)
to deliver this mini-course to you and thousands of other
valued subscribers using an autoresponder.Another autoresponder I use is called AutoResponse Plus. You
can check it out at: http://www.AutoResponse-Plus.com . The
difference between GetResponse and AutoResponse Plus is that
GetResponse does not require you to have hosting. It’s
hosted for you. AutoResponse Plus requires you to have your
own hosting account where the company will install the
software for you directly. Also, when it comes to building a
mailing list, GetResponse provides an in-house service to
build your mailing list for you called Get Subscribers which
you can see at: http://www.GetSubscribers.com . If you are
using AutoResponse Plus, you would need to use a third-party
service such as List Builder Pro to build your mailing list:
http://www.ProListBuilder.comThis brings me to the next step of the process of making
money on autopilot with an autoresponder. You need
subscribers. The fastest way to build a permission-based
list of subscribers of people who are interested in what you
have to offer is called co-registration. That’s what the
Get Subscribers and List Builder Pro services provide. All
the details about how these work can be found at:
http://www.GetSubscribers.com and
http://www.ProListBuilder.com respectively.

Once you know about these services, the steps to make money
online are really very simple.

Step 1) Get an autoresponder.

My 2 favorite autoresponders are:

1. GetResponse: http://www.FreeGetResponse.com
2. AutoResponse Plus: http://www.AutoResponse-Plus.com

Step 2) Order subscribers.

Here’s 2 reputable co-registration services:

1. Get Subscribers: http://www.GetSubscribers.com
(works exclusively with GetResponse)

2. List Builder Pro: http://www.ProListBuilder.com
(works with AutoResponse Plus and most other autoresponder
in the market, not GetResponse though)

Both of these service can be setup to add subscribers to
your autoresponder automatically without you needing to lift
a finger. Just go through the guided setup process when
placing your order and they will take care of the rest.

Step 3) Make an offer.

Send valuable information and special offers to your
subscribers on a regular basis. This is a simple process for
making money on autopilot that has never failed me.

In the beginning, I didn’t have a lot of money to invest in
advertising. That was a good thing. It forced my mind to
think about and discover what technique had the lowest risk
associated with it. You see, I figured that if I purchased
500 co-registration subscribers, all of these people were
mine to contact as often as I wanted until they either
bought something from me or unsubscribed. So in the case of
Get Subscribers, today I need to pay $189.95 to get 500
guaranteed subscribers. That’s 500 people who have given me
permission to email them as often as I want. Do you see how
powerful this is?

In my niche market, I promote home business products,
services and opportunities as an affiliate which all pay
very generous commissions. If I email my list of 500 people
a few times and just get 5 (1%) of them to sign up for one
of the products or programs I promote, I’ve already made a
profit. But the real beauty of this type of advertising is
that even after I’ve made a profit on my initial
investment, I still have my complete list of subscribers
(minus the few that have unsubscribed) to continue emailing,
building a relationship with and promoting different
products to. If I’m even the slightest bit creative and
consistent with sending offers to my list, I can make a
small fortune with this single asset.

What I’ve described above is EXACTLY how I started making
money online many years ago and how I still earn a healthy
percentage of my money today.

Maybe you’re thinking that setting up an autoresponder and
building a list is easy, but you don’t know what to email
to your list to make money. If that’s the case, I invite
you to consider that nearly every affiliate program or
business opportunity you can join provides pre-written email
marketing letters that you can simply copy and send to your
list. In most cases, these letters are proven sellers which
is why the affiliate programs and business opportunities
provide them to you. They have tested them and experienced
positive results already.

That said, in my own experience, I usually find that I can
get improved results with letters I write myself to my list
when I am sincere and offer my own personality, point of
view and value to an offer I am promoting.

But the bottom line here is that making money online can be
very simple. You don’t even need to have your own website,
you don’t need to attend any seminar or buy any expensive
marketing courses, or pay for one-on-one personal coaching,
etc. You just need to look around and watch what other
people (the big dogs) are doing to make their money. In most
cases, they are simply building list and emailing that list
special offers and announcements to promote products that
generate revenue for them. Instead of being on the receiving
end of this one-way marketing barrage, put yourself on the
delivering end of the emails and receiving end of the
commission checks and bank deposits that arrive when you
setup your own autopilot online marketing system.

All you need is an autoresponder, subscribers and an offer.

What are you waiting for? You can do it!

My Home Based Business-It Doesn’t Feel Like Work

Filed Under making money online, make money online, home based business, online home based business, Home Business | Posted on December 31, 2007

Have you ever waken up early solely so you can get to work because you wanted to? I don’t mean to catch up on things but waking up to work in things because you are truly excited about it. I feel that way about owning a home business and I feel that if more people would give it a chance, then there would be some very productive people ready to learn and earn.

WHY YOU SHOULD START A HOME BUSINESS

· You have the ultimate control over how successful you can be.

· You can make your own time schedule. If you are an early or late riser it does not matter.

· You are your own boss. You are competing with yourself and can make goals towards your own achievements.

· You are constantly learning and have the opportunities to continue to learn.

WHAT YOU SHOULD DO TO START A HOME BUSINESS

· Create a daily schedule with goals for the day

.· Post on forums daily.

· Write at least 2 articles a week to submit to ezines.

· Read articles on ezines that may give you ideas. I suggest http://www.ezinearticles.com

· Read Ebooks on marketing such as Dotcomology at http://www.moneymakingmathteacher.com/dotcomology.pdf and SEO at http://www.moneymakingmathteacher.com/SEO.pdf. Have fun with all of this and dive into it with all your heart. There is no better feeling than having control of your future and having a home business is the way to go. I wish you great luck with your endeavors and mostly I wish you a peaceful and prosperous new year!

Update On New SFI Co-op and Max Malls

Filed Under making money online, make money online, home based business, Home Business | Posted on December 6, 2007

When I received the email from SFI (Strong Futures International) marketing group, I could not believe what they were doing. I knew about the new co-op but I did not know there was just a one-time fee of $20. This fee will send you affiliates that you personally sponsor, which is one of the ways you make money with SFI.

I also did not know about Max Malls. This is a online shopping malls with top stores like The Sharper Image and even Mrs. Fields cookies! As an active member of the new co-op and an EA (executive affiliate), you will also receive a portion of the profits from the Max Malls.

I am telling you right now. With this new program, more people with join, become EA’s, stay EA’s and use the mall for their online shopping. I have such an incredibly great feeling about this that I might just write the founder and thank him personally!

This new year will be fantastic for all SFI affilliates and if your New Year’s resolution is to make more money this year than this is the program for you.

Learn more about SFI and the co-op here.
