1. Teamwork, Confessions of Truly Successful Work at Home Moms!

Trapped in a nine to five and beyond job? Your boss isn't seeing eye-to-eye with you lately, they're pushing you to do more than you can reasonably do in eight hours and you're tired of having to put up with the whole mess. Not to mention all of the office politics, sick of all the gossip and everything else that goes on at work.

You need that second income to make ends meet, especially in today's economy. Your best friend suggested you go online and do some research on moms that work at home. WOW, there are tons of work at home mom ads everywhere. The sky is the limit, you tell yourself this is a piece of cake. I will quit my job tomorrow, as most ads claim you too can make $5,000.00 plus monthly, all from the comfort of your home. That is it! I will become a work at home mom too!

So you made the decision to build an home based business, what do you need to get started in this endeavor? Well like any business, you need customers, distributors, affiliates, heck you just need to tell the world about your new business! You have already hit your friends and family, aka your "warm market" Now what? You need a ultimate powerful system of leads, fresh business opportunity leads, delivered daily. It is a numbers game, so the more the merrier, the better your success. You need that database of leads to receive your auto responder emails with professionally written letters encouraging these potential distributors to go to your business opportunity leads web site so that they can sign up into your business.

Now, ready for the winning edge? The missing piece to the puzzle that can make or break your business?

What is it? Why teamwork, teamwork coupled with a prestigious marketing system equals success. When you have a team of like minded entrepreneurs all working together you are not alone. Much like being in a recovery program or trying to lose weight, difficult tasks and up hill climbs can easily be achieved when working hands on with others. This group effort makes for accountability to all involved, thus greater results come!

What about those leads. But why buy them? I personally do not! Been there done that my friend, and I am here to tell you neither does my team!

Achieve your dream of work at home success, yes moms, dads, all can find the road to happiness. Work at home moms rejoice!

Your good health is the wealth, that brings YOU all the happiness you can possibly hold,

2. A Smile that Shines Through Creates Success for Work at Home Moms and Dads

If you have been hanging with me the last couple of emails I have been building the foundation for you to be successful in your business. I started out with the all important "WHY" as they call it in the industry, this is the driving force to help you to succeed no matter what comes before you. It can indeed be frustrating while on the voyage. Always remember, it is always darkest before the storm, once the storm has passed, the blue skies follow!

With the "Never Give Up" attitude you will find just what you desire regarding your business. Whether you are a working mother, a stay at home mom or work at home dad, your goal is firmly set as you have made the decision to be a work at home mom, dad or parent.

With your passion firmly set as you have designed or should I say branded yourself, thus pulling yourself out of the pack so to speak. You have clearly defined your hopes, as well as the end results...You have set sail for the voyage of your life. You will walk away with so much more than you ever thought possible.

You have created your own personal web site, your picture along with words of power and encouragement for others is about to electrify the world! But before you get to far, I would like to caution you on a couple things, or maybe just a final check off before you launch. Within your site, along with your own special personal touch of who and what you are. Be sure you add a dash of a freebie or two within your pages. Express your heart felt desire to empower others with your knowledge, your experiences, along with valuable tools all of which will help other work at home moms and dads, creates a following unlike anything else.

Think about it, people are looking for value these days. The old school methods of slam dunk deals are long gone! It is has come full circle as we are back to the basics, what should have been all along. It is about building relationships with others. Creating a trust, much like making new friends. If you can convey yourself to others as the good person you really are...You have won the battle...and are now ready to move forward.

Now, how can you share your site with other potential work at home moms and dads? How can I get my site out there in the great mass of humanity called the Internet? Well, it will be tough, but as I have so often said, there is nothing easy about creating wealth, thus you can truly say, I am a successful work at home mom or dad...truly meaning it! No hype, no lies.

In today Internet, marketing tends to be directed at what is called Web 2.0 or social networking. That I believe is a good start. We all know about blogging, press releases and such. I will go into more details soon on these all important areas of marketing. But the purposes of this article, we are exploring social networking.

If you have never created a social networking site, my first suggestion would be to try Myspace.com, Facebook, Tagged just a few to start with. Create a profile that attracts those whom you seek to know. Again, a picture says a thousands words, smile, shine like the diamond that you are. Never be ashamed of you, if you feel awkward about sharing a personal picture for million to see. Always remember you are YOU! It is about what is inside that matters most. A drop dead gorgeous woman or man doesn't always sell or appeal to those you are truly targeting. It is your words and actions that will ultimately set the stage of success!

Be sure as I have mentioned before, this advertising strategy must align with your site. Not that you are right off the bat trying to hit a perspective with your work at home business opportunity. Slow down and remember, you are building acquaintances, developing your presence online or off. At this stage of the game you are out socializing, meeting new people.

Working mothers, work at home moms and dad, you will be highly successful with these beginning strategies. Stay tuned for more...

Dedicated to YOUR Success,

3. Begin to Set Your Mind to the Truth as a Work at Home Mom

Pull out the rubber cleaning gloves; grab the deep cleaning arsenal of tools and brace yourself as you clean like never before! What the heck? What does this have to do with setting your mind to the truth about working at home as a mom. EVERYTHING! We are going in deep into the truth!

Think about it. If you have made the decision to be a work at home mom. You have taken on one hell of a load. A load of extra work...Justin Case!

Let me explain all of this in a way that hopefully conveys my heart felt belief on this subject. As a mother we have a HUGE job already, that is a given. If the need arises, as is so prevalent these days that you need to work to make extra money and you do not wish to work outside the home. Brace yourself for some hard realities in achieving the goal of being a work at home mom. Believe me I am not trying to discourage you in the least bit. I have the deepest respect for women that desire a much better life financially speaking. Therefore, why waste your time with a lot of hype. My message speaks only the truth as I perceive it, based on years of experience.

We all have seen commercials on TV or advertising on the Internet where women proudly stand up and claim "I make ten thousand dollars a month part time while working at home." "You can do it too!" Now, does that not speak loads to you? The dream of being financially rich, while home with your precious children, and doing it all part time? I am IN!

Over eleven years ago, I made that decision to be a work at home mom. I remember my first business opportunity as it was presented to me by a group of women, whom by the way, I trusted and believed in. I can see myself yet today, as a smile set in, my heart all aglow, that this just made perfect sense! Why wouldn't every one I know buy into this as well? The company was centered around health and wellness, it would change people's lives forever in many aspects.

Of course as a woman, I could empower other women I knew that were struggling in a nine to five job with this powerful business opportunity. I could change their lives, I would be a hero! A mentor! Oh, the fire of true financial success was lit! The torch burned within my being...I couldn't wait to sign on the dotted line.

With my business kit in hand, I was ready to set the world on fire! I endowed myself with all the knowledge I could regarding the logistics of the business model, the products, the opportunity. I was ready to sign everyone up!

Well, we all have a dream! It isn't always easy to make ten thousand dollars a month part time while at home with your kids as a work at home mom. There are no magic weight loss cures or ways to earn money at home without a great deal of effort, there is no one simple solution to guarantee success. It does however begin with the desire to work at home. Once you realize that no matter what your business opportunity, you are going to have to work hard to make it work! Unless of course you are one of the rare few that has friends and family that all will sign up; each having every advantage as you have in knowing TONS of willing participants...and so on and so on!

So with your business opportunity in hand, time to roll up your sleeves and get to work! You need to develop a presence online and off. A trade mark of who and what you represent. Bring it forward in the most truthful way, a simplistic approach. A unique fingerprint that no one else possess. Remember, real people, get real results. This is the first step and I believe the missing link in developing a successful business.

How do you brand yourself both online and off? Lots of ways. Remember what I said in my first paragraph? This is deep cleaning my friend. Do not fool yourself in believing anything different. It will be tough at first, but the rewards are so worth it!

Sit down with your favorite beverage and begin to think, map out a strategy. What defines you from everyone else? How does this relate to my business opportunity? Think about a niche market you wish to reach out too. Create a following as such within this market. Once you have established this first step, it time to execute the plan. For this I will have more thoughts and tips to share with you next time...

Until then, believe in the power of you!

Dedicated to YOUR Success,

4. Work from home

As I am a successful stay at home mother, as well as part of an ever growing organization of home school parents. Lately, I have noticed a real need within this community, not to mention, an even greater need all across this great country of ours called America!

That is the ability to work from home and raise our children. Although I am part of a group of home schooling parents, as together we are taking control of our children’s lives, aspiring to create a better tomorrow through the youth of today. The fact still remains many families are making HUGE sacrifices in order to do so, financially speaking.

It is also becoming very expensive to work outside the home, IF you are able to find and keep a job in these unstable times. Ever soaring gas prices with no end in sight. Directly affecting everything we all need on a daily basis, such as food and water just to survive. Not to mention higher utility bills, higher insurance costs, simply everything around us has reached an all time high and is this just the beginning? Scary thought isn't it?

So no matter what your needs are. Whether you simply need extra income to survive these days, if you are looking for a way to combat the soaring cost of college,. or an extra tank of gas, there is a solution to this problem. You can find success in working from home.

It is reality to work from home, you can live the dream! It is closer than you think. Please allow me to share with you how I am teamed up with a rock solid company, along with a dedicated team of like minded entrepreneurs, as together we are creating solid walk away incomes and NO one is being left behind!

Here’s to your success,

5. Work From Home Moms

Not to mention all of the office politics, sick of all the gossip and everything else that goes on at work. Then there is the small matter of finding a way to pay for a tank of gas to get there on a daily basis. I don’t know about you but gas here in California is hovering around $4.40 a gallon. Coupled with vehicle maintenance, buying clothing to keep up the look, heck we are just getting started here. Anyone that works outside the home surely can relate with what I am saying here. It is simply tough to make all ends meet from a financial standpoint, not to mention what you have to put up while at work.

But before quitting your job to pursue your dream of working for yourself, it would be a good idea to get organized. Do your do diligence in research. When you are looking over the millions of work from home opportunities keep one thing in mind. Make sure you understand all the aspects of building a successful work from home business.

Many work from home mom business opportunities have high requirements for success. So make sure you fully understand what you are about to get yourself into. Do yourself a favor and know the facts before you sign on the dotted line and put out your hard earned money.

6. Work at Home Moms

The traditional ideas set forth years ago, wherein a woman gets married, has children and can be at home to raise those children are quickly becoming nothing more than stories of what people used to do long ago.

In our world today, the reality is much different. When women marry and have children their role in the home has taken on many new hats to wear each and every day. Some of these new hats have become being a bread winner right along with their spouse. Thus, a new generation has come forth. Families today cannot make it on one income to meet the demands of everyday life. It isn't simply because they want to have a vacation home in Hawaii, or a fancy car or other such luxuries. The truth is two incomes have become the only way some families can pay the rent, buy food and survive.

In an effort to try and be home with their children, therefore eliminating the mass kaos in getting kids ready for school, trying to get ready for work, hoping that no one is sick, oh the list goes on and on with the morning rituals to get out the door on time. ENOUGH ALREADY...Many women have taken the stand to to become work at home moms. It is a tough act to follow for many, thus a new generation is slowly emerging from the heap, determined to find a way.

Becoming part of the work at home moms force has many challenges but then what part of mothering does not? However, once the decision has been made to become part of the work from home moms driving force, your goals and your commitment all must be firmly in place for optimal success. You must establish how many hours a day you can set aside to work without a lot of interruptions. You need to find a quiet somewhat undisturbed place where you can set up an office. Is this sounding impossible yet? Well the truth is it will be difficult, but the rewards will be so worth your efforts.

Work at home moms know that they do not want to go out and be in the workplace. The comfort of knowing they are raising their children and not someone else somehow makes all the difference. No longer are the fears of kids waking up sick, thus knowing you have to send them to school anyway, or risk losing your job. Your job is at home. Being with your family, teaching your kids your way, making money in order to assist the family budget. All of this is a win, win for relentless work from home moms all across this great country of ours! To Your Continued Success,

7. Multi-Level Marketing Leads

The truth is this if you are going to be successful in a sales, MLM, gifting, real estate or any other commission based business, YOU NEED MLM LEADS!

MLM Leads can help you build your Network Marketing business and make a big difference when you are trying to build your business, but do you find it harder and harder to find high quality MLM leads? Your Network Marketing success depends on a reliable source of high quality; qualified, responsive MLM Leads that are truly interested in starting their own home based business.

You need a unique understanding of exactly what kind of high quality MLM leads distributors such as yourself, must have in order to achieve massive success. You could be our next success story. Results are the only important measurement when deciding on MLM Leads

Don't let anyone try to tell you that older MLM leads or co-reg leads are just as good. Results have proven time and time again that a prospect's interest level is at its peak when they have just completed filling in a request form and hit the submit button. This is a true surveyed or short form real time lead...and this is exactly a good MLM Leads Company delivers to you, actual live leads. Let the results speak for themselves. MLM Leads are the secret to building a successful MLM Business and MLM Leads can be the solution to finding the large numbers of people that you need to speak with in order to succeed. Anyone who has ever tried to build an MLM business knows that the most important thing to do is to speak to as many people as possible about your business. This is also the biggest problem – who do you talk to?

Why would you want to purchase leads? They can be quite expensive, not to mention the fact whether or not they are free MLM leads Opt-in leads or Survey leads; leads are leads and they are just that...leads...not customers. BUT Laads!

Why not buy customers? I simply purchase satisfied customers already using product. Simple as that...

I hate making cold calls, I hate trying to drum up a conversation with strangers, in order to try and sell them on a product. If you are like me, then I would like to invite you to take a look at a unique well established business model.

Here is to your success,

8. Is Your Business Opportunity Lead a Minus One?

In the on going efforts of the home based business entrepreneur the word "LEADS" always seems to surface in general conversation, as well as nightly dreams. It is like the forbidden fruit, you simply must have it!

In the quest for "LEADS", the real challenge begins at your first stop, the impending Internet, and the leviathan dragon that awaits you on every keyword specific search engine page you visit. So which one or ones do you choose? What is your weapon of choice?

In slaying the dragon, you need to understand some basic information before you step out to take on this worthy opponent. To survive you must win this battle, you need to find good quality leads. Your weapon of choice is your budget, knowledge is your armor. Thus it begs the question, what in the heck is a "Minus One Lead"anyway? The level of a lead is something not to be overlooked. This is where many a business entrepreneur has lost the battle, harboring the mind set that a lead is a lead is a lead. WRONG!

Minus One Leads are so eloquently named because this my friend is the bottom of the food chain. These leads are common place, extracted directly from old email lists, you know the lists that have been sold so many times, that they have been around the globe twice. Oh and those emails derived from figments of someone's imagination. Some of the emails addresses created, wow, who thinks up that stuff? No wonder they are no good, who would lay claim to them?

Minus One leads are sold in mass quantity and produce absolutely nothing. Now you know why?

Arm yourself with truth, research any leads you are about to purchase, and for heaven sakes read the fine print. Use logic when you do battle and out smart your opponent. The level of lead really does matter.

9. Free MLM Leads

Yes you can get great free MLM leads. Not just free MLM leads but hot free MLM leads. The combined use of automated banner exchanges and automated surf sites has produced good results. This free MLM leads traffic to your website will amaze you, for sure. Good MLM Leads are not that hard to find. Good genealogy leads are not that hard to find, either. What you probably don't know is that generating these types of leads is your absolute best way to build your network marketing business.

One of the main goals of a multi-level marketing (MLM) independent distributor (business owner) is to sell the product or service of the parent company. However, an equally important goal is to encourage the customer to also become an independent distributor within that business owner’s network and sell the services or product. Prospects who may be interested in becoming distributors are known as MLM leads. The MLM business owner can generate his or her own leads through referrals from family members, friends, and acquaintances. These leads can also be generated through a variety of marketing tools, including surveys, event or trade show promotions, and informative websites. One quick and convenient way to acquire MLM leads lists is to simply buy the list from a third party company.

For the new MLM business owner, these methods may be too costly or time consuming. One quick search on the internet will result in a plethora of web sites promoting free MLM leads While cost savings are beneficial, the term “free” can also indicate a situation that is too good to be true. If the business owner decides to take advantage of some of the free leads available, he or she must take care to look into the background of the third party company that is supplying these leads. It is also important that the MLM business owner check his or her list of free MLM leads against the Do Not Call (DNC) Registry every 90 days. This will ensure that the list is updated regularly and that the leads remain fresh.

Why buy leads? I purchase customers already enjoying the benefits of a product. Customers that are satisfied and happy. These customers cost $50.00 each. That is it! No spending a fortune trying to promote a product; countless hours and money with no guarantee of success. No trying to develop a lead into hopefully joining you in business. All this is way too expensive and time consuming for me. Besides, just because you may have found success in doing business this way, doesn't mean everyone else you bring into your business will do the same as you.

10. Lead The Pack

J. Paul Getty, who created one of the world's greatest fortunes, said "I would rather make 1 percent on the efforts of 100 people than 100 percent on my own efforts." This very basic concept is the cornerstone of network marketing.

How many times have you heard the term "Work with a motivated team of like minded individuals all dedicated to building your business! I am quite sure you have heard it a lot. I know I have. In fact, it is because I have taken the step to join with these types of businesses in the past, that I can share this with you. Ask yourself, how is this team building my business? How are we working as a team? Am I gaining true success in my business, or is just few others on my team finding success - as I hear on the motivational calls? You can do it! You just need to go out there and talk to people, purchase our series of CD's at the incredible low price of??? We will be encouraging you to go out there and find people to talk too. You can, You can...Where is the team in that? What is the definition of teamwork?
Needless to say my friend...

DON'T BUILD YOUR BUSINESS THE OLD SCHOOL WAY

Simply put there is a better way. DO NOT BUY LEADS - Buy customers and work with in a cutting edge business model called "Cooperative Marketing" Want to learn more? Then give me a call...what have you got to lose, just more money on worthless leads??

11. Flower Gardens Lead To Successful Follow Ups

Ever walked by the same flower garden day after day, yet never knelt down to smell not even one single flower? This age old adage still rings true in so many different aspects. Or how about this one, "Not being able to see the forest for the trees." Get the picture now?

So how does this all translate into the follow up of leads. Well, you go out and spend a fortune on buying and/or generating business opportunity leads. You carefully call each and every one of them, pouring out your heart and soul in your conviction as to why you have the best opportunity around. Or you email them your business opportunity with a finely tuned set of auto responders. Each auto responder slowly building up to a climatic, stupendous, I can not wait to sign up into your business opportunity series. Surely, you tell yourself, I will sign up everyone on my leads list as these emails are SO GOOD! Who wouldn't sign up?

So why aren't you more successful in your sign ups? What went wrong you ask yourself? You have purchased every "How To Develop Leads" E=book on the Internet, all kinds of inspirational tapes, you have spent a fortune going to every seminar possible in order to gain the upper edge in these matters. Yet, you end up with nothing but more credit card debt, and knowing you have lined the pockets of others, only to find yours empty, just some lint remains.

The truth is no matter the type of business you are involved in, the REAL follow up is where the determination between the men and the boys (or should I say the girl and the women) comes to play. May I refer you back to the flower garden. Answer this question honestly, did you bend down and smell the flowers? Did you see their beauty and detail?

People like to be treated with integrity and respect. Not just faces in the crowd. Bring a personal ring to your approach. When you buy, or develop a lead, take the word "Lead" out and introduce the word "friend" and treat them accordingly. Begin your approach whether it be a phone call or email with a personal message. Share yourself with your new acquaintance. No... you don't have to be too personal...such as your choice of underwear. You know what I mean. You want to share yourself as REAL person. That your words convey that you are a friend, not a money hungry person seeking yet another victim.

Once you have conveyed a personal contact minus any reference to making money. Follow up with the beginning steps of building a relationship. Seek their questions, offer any advice you can. Demonstrate your patients in offering freebies and/or a service that actually helps your new acquaintance, again without reference to your business opportunity. Notice I did mention "patients" because the truth is developing business opportunity leads into friends is going to be a process.

Continue to follow up with your new acquaintance, keep personal notes, phone calls and such pouring out. But do it in a timely fashion, not all at once. Develop fresh new ideas, keep things a new. Bring creativity into play while keeping the thought of developing this acquaintance into a possible new friend in mind. You know that this contact/acquaintance is looking for an opportunity or currently is involved with business. So never under mind this person, show respect, as you would wish them to do unto you.

Maybe you have heard all this before in your educational process, but, are you really empowering yourself by actually doing it or are you only thinking about it?

Learn to slow down, and smell the flowers, admire their beauty, then, and only then, will your success rate come to pass. Think about this, what if one day you noticed the garden was no longer there. Would you wonder what happened to it? Of course you would. Today isn't too late to say thanks to the gardener, to appreciate all the hard work involved. Make their day! You never know, you might just make a new friend...think of the possibilities this can bring.

That your words convey that you are a friend, not a money hungry person seeking yet another victim.

Once you have conveyed a personal contact minus any reference to making money. Follow up with the beginning steps of building a relationship. Seek their questions, offer any advice you can. Demonstrate your patients in offering freebies and/or a service that actually helps your new acquaintance, again without reference to your business opportunity. Notice I did mention "patients" because the truth is developing business opportunity leads into friends is going to be a process.

Continue to follow up with your new acquaintance, keep personal notes, phone calls and such pouring out. But do it in a timely fashion, not all at once. Develop fresh new ideas, keep things a new. Bring creativity into play while keeping the thought of developing this acquaintance into a possible new friend in mind. You know that this contact/acquaintance is looking for an opportunity or currently is involved with business. So never under mind this person, show respect, as you would wish them to do unto you.

Maybe you have heard all this before in your educational process, but, are you really empowering yourself by actually doing it or are you only thinking about it?

Learn to slow down, and smell the flowers, admire their beauty, then, and only then, will your success rate come to pass. Think about this, what if one day you noticed the garden was no longer there. Would you wonder what happened to it? Of course you would. Today isn't too late to say thanks to the gardener, to appreciate all the hard work involved. Make their day! You never know, you might just make a new friend...think of the possibilities this can bring.

Here is to your success,

13. Cooperative Business Plan Empowers The Average Person to Succeed Without Buying Leads

Do you often wish that you would find a home based business that cuts through the hype and presents you a real financial opportunity to change your present situation

Detailed "Cooperative Marketing" description Cooperative marketing refers to advertising and promotional programs in which a manufacturer or distributor supports the advertising efforts of a retailer (ex grocery store newspaper advertisements) or as in the example of Intel inside another party that uses a specific part a branded ingredient or licensed approach. Such advertising is sometimes referred to as co op advertising. Typically the manufacturer will help underwrite a portion of or in some cases pay for completely the advertising costs incurred by the retailer.

Most Multi Level Marketing companies use the Recruiting Model which creates an over saturation of sales representatives with no customers. In sharp contrast the Cooperative Business Model offers their representatives the ability to purchase paying customers that have seen and heard radio and television infomercials and decided to become a customer.

You do not need to buy leads to build a financially solid home based business opportunity. Take the money you would have spent on those worthless leads and simply buy life long customers. In fact I am so sure you will be sold on this concept, I will email you a no obligation video approximately four minutes long on the "Cooperative Marketing Business Model" to view for yourself.

14. Lead Follow or Get out the Way with Business Opportunity Leads, Get in Touch with Reality!

We all know that people are looking for ways to meet the gap financially speaking. It has become a high priced world to live in and many are people are wondering just how in the heck they are going to make it, not just monthly, but to reach the eventual goal of retiring someday with some comfort and ease.

As a result business opportunities have had many people taking a second look. Really starting to kick the tires, so to speak. It is an attractive offer to work from the comfort of home. Not to mention the extreme savings by doing so. With that being said, not all people are exactly sold on the idea of earning money off the inter, in otherworlds, there is a lot of skepticism to say the least. To be honest, rightly so.

Business opportunities are rampant all over the Internet, multi-level marketing being most prevalent. Even though many people are in fact earning money from these types of businesses, the truth still rings true that MLM can be overrated and most definitely hyped up. It is a select few that have really found the right strategy in order to build a strong set of down lines working to make those on top of the heap, some serious money through residual income. But knowing human nature 101, is where the average person will only be just that, bottom of the food chain, making someone else money, while they go broke while searching relentlessly for business opportunity leads

It is important to thoroughly do research on any business opportunities you might even consider joining. Make sure the company you plan to do business with is financially stable, that it is not a start up or pre launch opportunity, as these will more than likely end with your financial ruin. Do your homework!

Many affiliate marketing business opportunities integrate the MLM concepts as well. You can earn both ways, you can sell their products and recruit new affiliates. You can potentially earn both ways... Beginning to sound familiar? Down lines, buying business opportunity leads, recruiting, bottom of the food chain...

Think about building a business based on selling other people's products, the cost of marketing is solely on your shoulders to bear. Not many can in fact do this, even if you can. These types of home based business opportunities are Old School Marketing and are not in touch with reality today. The better news is this. What if I could show you a company that does all the marketing and distribution of their own products. Why I will even go one further in saying, they even find their own customers? So you ask, where do I fit into this mix how is this a business where I can make money? Well, truth is, this is the right way to do business. Everyone wins, even you as a potential business person seeking a way to make money at home. How...it is simple..you can purchase these customers and earn residual income from them for life.

Is this starting to sound like a home based business opportunity that more in touch with reality? You bet! Now, how about a system that will help you get paid even if you personally do not sponsor anyone to join you as an business affiliate. WHAT? You read it right, it is a team effort. Not with email but with Google white hat top organic (not pay per click either) search engine rankings. Everyone is delegated to help. The total team effort is building the down line and very quickly. No dependency on distributors alone, oh and those customers for life are the icing on the cake.

15. Lead The Way, Break Free

Today you woke up in the usual fashion from the alarm clocks warning. You stagger down the dark hallway to the bathroom, switch on the light and there before you stands a frustrated person in the vanity mirror. Why the frustration you ask yourself? What is different about this morning than any other? Simple, it is yet another day filled with the same old, same old. You are tired of busting your butt everyday on your go no where job. You are sick of trying to make your paycheck stretch through yet another week. You have run out of reasons to continue on this fruitless voyage in your life. You ask yourself how can I break the bonds of "Insanity"? Doing the same thing over and over again expecting different results!

You know in your heart of hearts you need to be self-employed. But what kind of business can you start with no real investment capital? Besides, you have no real experience in owning your own business. How can I possibly succeed? What kind of business can I run? The list of questions overwhelms your exhausted mind. I know.....a good cup of coffee will make all these answers clear.

The truth is many people do need some sort of "extra income" the problem comes in knowing how to develop or even begin to bring this dream to reality. The odds seem so overwhelming negative for most people, they just give up right then and there. Thus, the hope fades. Back to the grind they go. Much like a horse tied to a post, as they circle around and around the post all day long, creating a deep rut. Going nowhere fast!

Break the bonds of failure, bring the positive back to your vocabulary! You can do it! You just need to do it right!

Find the right business that suits just who you are. Seek the right kind of business model, one that enable YOU to WIN! Where you can actually make some money. You ask the question, do these types of businesses really exist? Yes they do! But first....

May I lead you away from affiliate marketing companies wherein you need to develop distributors from leads, that in turn will purchase monthly product orders. Why? Simple! Distributors that only purchase products in order to qualify for commissions is like building a house on the sand. Think about it, this only works for those at the top, as those near the bottom struggle to continue to quality each month while seeking leads to develop into business partners such as themselves. You are dependant on leads. Have you looked at how many lead companies there are out there on the net?

In my mind shifting sand only makes for great pictures down on the sea shore. Think rock solid income, built over time with real customers, not leads. Customers you can purchase directly from the company itself, customers already purchasing products, based solely on the fact they love the products, and best yet, customers that are yours for life! That have the potential to bring you a nice monthly income, which translates to a healthy "extra income" or better yet, total financial freedom! Sound like something you might be interested in? Where else in today's economy can you find such a business? Give me a call! Let me show you how to lead the way! To break free...

18. A Team Can Win Powerful Leads

When you look up the word "team", it means to yoke and join in as one. Why is this important in regards to building a business? Simple, you certainly don’t find many business opportunities that represent that kind of dedication and commitment. If any at all!

The reality is that in order to develop a home based business you either have to come up with your own business model either selling a product or providing a service. Or perhaps you have come to the super highway of information called the Internet, seeking an business opportunity to change your life, looking for an answer to filling an empty gap that so many people today are experiencing, which is lack of money. Either way you decide to go, you are virtually on your own in building or developing a business.

So with so much information on the Internet, where do you begin? You need a business that does not require you to spend a lot of money on a product or service. This is especially true in these unsettling economic times, where everyone is looking for more value to the dollar. It is equally important that you do not have a lot of out of pocket expense in marketing a product or service, this is where it can truly make or break you financially speaking. The last thing you want to do is be in a position where you have to drive around trying to interest people in your product and or service.

What you need is a company that is stable, markets their own products, takes care of customer service and you reap the rewards. So where do you find that kind of a business? Is there such a business model in existence?

19. Leads The MLM Mentality

So what do you mean don't duplicate? That's crazy, why that's the MLM motto! It is the heart and soul of motivational speakers as they teach their down lines, duplicate, duplicate, duplicate! Well this may be true for some network marketing online business opportunities, but definitely not for all!

Traditionally, 99 percent of network marketing organizations are built with nothing but distributors (sales people). Everyone is put at a disadvantage because they are all in competition with each other for more distributors. Example: When you recruit three and they recruit three and they recruit three and they recruit three and they also recruit three your leading edge of 243 hungry distributors (sales people) represents 67 percent of your organization and none of them are making money. If they don't start making money soon, they quit and there goes your organization into a collapse. Why because they are not customers! They are only buying the product because of the promise to make money. Eventually they either quit or move on to another company or leave the industry all together.

This is a very real concern when you are looking into how to create an online business. Because the truth is these network marketing organizations seem very promising to entrepreneurs who have huge down lines beneath them. In fact, many "top of the food chain" network marketers are ever seeking new opportunities in which to join with their group. It is almost like watching a massive school of fish swim through the vast open ocean feeding along the way. The eating is good, until a predator comes and diminishes the numbers down in size. It is those bottom of the "food chain dwellers" that are the first to be eaten in the frenzy of jumping from one multi level marketing company to the another. So why such a huge calling of dedicated down liners? Simple, it is the allure of getting in at just the right time, just the right place. Always hoping to gain the competitive edge over others within the group.

If you really want to know how to create an online business that has a strong foundation, all you have do is think about the school of feeding fish...going from one business to another, when the food becomes scarce thus the entire school moves on to yet another deal! Therefore, this is NOT how to create an online business that has any kind of future.

There is a better way. How about a system and team effort. Not with email but with Google white hat top organic (not pay per click either) search engine rankings. Everyone is delegated to help. The total team effort is building the down line and very quickly. This unique business model is not dependent on distributors alone. The secret to success, lies in the fact it is based on real customers acquired from television and radio infomercial, not from buying worthless leads, as this only benefits those selling the leads.

What if every distributor had 100 of these real customers? "What if those customers loved the product and didn't care about earning nor were involved in making money?" I think you can see the advantage this represents!

This is exactly what we are doing as members of Network Marketing Paradigm Group, we are breaking records in our growth! It is a business model based on delegation for which all benefit from the efforts as a team!

I invite you to see for yourself why "Duplication doesn't work - Delegation does"

A dramatically different approach to network marketing, where no one gets left behind!

The total team effort is building the down line and very quickly. But we are not dependent on distributors alone. We also have real customers! You have found the right way in how to create an online business.

What if every distributor had 100 real customers? What if those customers loved the product and didn't care about earning nor were involved in making money? What if instead of buying leads (Like 99 percent of the MLMs will tell you to do) you could just buy customers instead? I think you can see the advantage this represents.

99 percent of network marketing organizations are built with nothing but distributors (sales people). Everyone is put at a disadvantage because they're all in competition with each other for more distributors. Example: When you recruit three and they recruit three and they recruit three and they recruit three and they also recruit three your leading edge of 243 hungry distributors (sales people) represents 67% of your organization and none of them are making money.

This is how to create an online business that is history making. This business model is breaking records in growth. The best news is that no one is left behind...It is all for one...and one for all.

It is about time to make a change for the better. Stop the insanity. Join a group of like minded individuals all dedicated to the ultimate success of the team.

21. Lead Yourself to Success In Building An Online Business

As young children our parents taught us to think positive in all aspects of our lives. That our words conveyed strength when used correctly, and negativity is unacceptable as it brings forth defeat and deep disappointment. How true these statements turned out to be, not only in childhood, but as grown adults in everything we do.

Knowing that our emotions set the stage, and our words affect the out come, isn't it a good thing we know how to use these in our favor? That we as human beings with these in check, can indeed bring optimal results if we just say it and believe it.

Therefore believing in yourself to run a successful online business opportunity. We all have the dream of being able to gain financial strength in order to pay our bills, and to take that one step further in having enough money to really splurge and enjoy life to it's fullest!

So what is the problem then? Why are there so many people seeking answers in how to create an online business and it ends in failure? Is it just the business model itself? Or is it something more? Therein lies the fly in the ointment. Often, it is just the individual that cannot wrap their mind totally around the aspiration to reach such a high level of success?

It is also equally true that many online businesses opportunities are not set up for the average person to succeed. The fundamental truth is that very few do succeed, the basic work from home business model isn't for everyone. It does take a lot of determination along with total dedication. This is especially true concerning an affiliate work from home business. You must break the barriers of fear and really step up and go the extra mile, only to face the cold hard reality, you have to find many more that are willing to do the same as you! So how many people are going to wrap their mind around that one? Duplication doesn't work! This is truly how to create an online business that will bring financial success.

Regroup and redirect your thoughts. You can begin building steam and truly manifest success in an online business opportunity. There is a system that you can tap into, where like minded entrepreneurs are all working together as a team producing synergy while building a rock solid work from home business. It is this business model that has set the stage, bringing forth words of affirmation to all it's members. The train of triumph is rolling down the track, full steam ahead! All aboard!

22. Home Business Leads Create a Successful Online Business

O.k. you took the bait and you are reading my article, for the sake of those that do not know what an affiliate program is here goes.... it is a form of advertising that rewards you (the business affiliate) for delivering potential customers to the advertiser's company. You are then eligible to receive a commission every time a sale is made. Sounds easy and most profitable doesn't it?

Well the truth is your responsibility is to promote the products and/or services of the advertiser. If you can develop and implement good marketing techniques, the income potential is very good. If you are looking to learn how to create an online business, this concept is worth researching.

Do I still have your attention? Well, the next step is the all important task of finding a good, honest program to fit your needs, likes and desires. Which can be quite a job, but the rewards are so worth it! I would strongly suggest you do a Google search for affiliate programs, and you will be overwhelmed instantly. Every singles program promises you the moon, has the best product(s) and/or service. Searching for just the right affiliate program is like shopping at the local mall the last weekend before Christmas! It is insane! You will go crazy unless you know just what you are looking for. A guideline of sorts.

To be effective in how to create an online business using an affiliate program as a means to your success, you first need to identify what kind of product and or service appeals to you personally. It can be difficult for someone into health and fitness to promote products that are not so healthy. You need to be a product of the product! This is really important to do this!

Next once you have established a good product and/or service you need to search the field with even finer toothed comb. Next you need to evaluate the cost of entering the program. What do you get for entry fee? This is yet another very important step to understanding what you are about to involve yourself with. Ask yourself, will other potential business affiliates see the value also?

You need to have a good idea about the compensation plan, is it a plan you can make money with? In your voyage of how to create an online business you need to know the facts as much as possible. What are company policies and procedures? Is this a reliable company to do business with? How long have they been in business? Do your research ask to speak to other affiliate to see if they are happy with the comp plan, are they being paid when promised?

How many ways can you make money with this company. It is important to have many forms of income available in your search in how to create an online business. Or why are you in business at all? You are wasting your time, unless you know all the ways to make money with a company. Be smart and do your research!

What are your marketing tools? What resources does the company offer if any? A good company will offer you many free highly professional tools so that you have the best advantage possible. It only makes sense! You succeed, then so does the company.

Is the company available to assist you when you need help? Is there a well staffed affiliate business center ready to answer any and all questions you might have? Does the company treat you like one of them, offering the personal touch of genuine care and concern for your success. Does the company provide continual training, offering cutting edge marketing tools to compete in today's ever growing market place? These are just some of the many questions you need to ask. All vital information in your research in how to create an online business.

What is it going to cost you to do business? What will you need to spend monthly on a qualifying order to receive commissions? Will you be spending far more than you ever hope to earn? Will you need to purchase leads in order build your business? Does the company require that you use a certain company or program in order to find leads or do they teach you how to find them yourself? What about marketing materials? What will that cost you?

As always do your due diligence in knowing what you are about to involve yourself in...it is so important! Why would you risk your good name and reputation on something that wasn't a good deal!

What is it about writing articles in your marketing campaigns that makes the difference? Well one aspect is the simple fact of links. This is the heart and soul that drives traffic. Compare this to a brick and mortar business, the open door to your business.

So what do I write about? Well, that is the beauty of ingenuity at it's finest. Just write about what ever you feel comfortable in writing about. Share your life experiences with your products, if your business is based upon that. Or share why your service based business is far superior over others, what sets you apart from the pack. Be real and honest with people, share your thoughts and concerns, just as if you were sitting at the table enjoying your favorite beverage with them. Make your words reach out with conviction, with meaning, as the old adage goes..."reach out and touch somebody" You will be surprised what a difference it makes in how to create an online business.

When you write your articles make sure they are "keyword rich" oh no, what does that mean? Simply put, when you write your articles make sure you hit the keywords throughout. The keywords are in essence the targeted audience or traffic. Example, if you have a web site and you are selling homemade teddy bears. Focus your article on just what are homemade teddy bears? What makes them special, why someone would want to buy one from you? What would you guess are the keywords for this particular business?

Be sure to give your name, phone number and of course the url to your web site. Maybe even offer a freebie just for stopping by your site, as an added bonus. Oh and here is a tip for you off liners. When you make up business cards or brochures, be sure to offer a freebie or some sort of useful advantage for someone who picks up your card to act immediately. Now that is effective network marketing!

Now, you wrote an article, so what's next? Well, several options are available. The first would be to join a Google Group, target the keywords you are going after when creating your own group or joining another group. Homemade teddy bears and micro brewers may not be hand in hand if you know what I mean. Check around and find just the right group for you in your how to create an online business endeavor. Another great idea would be to create free Blogger.com blogs, submit your articles often, the more you write, the more your blog takes on a life of it's own! In fact go to Google.com and check out all the wonderful marketing tools available to you! Here's a hint....

Never forget the power of your articles, they are the virtual sales representatives that you send out into the dark impersonal world called the Internet. Make your business stand out, shine bright. Share yourself with others as you build a successful network marketing presence that is as unique and specialized as you. Brand your existence for all to behold! You are unique by design..

26. Online Business Leads - Network Marketing Leverage Personified

J. Paul Getty, who created one of the world's greatest fortunes, said "I would rather make 1 percent on the efforts of 100 people than 100 percent on my own efforts." This very basic concept is the cornerstone of network marketing.

First let's get some basic facts straight before we begin. Network marketing in simple terms is not a pyramid scheme, these types of scams are based on principals found in chain letters. People invest money on the promise others will put money in also and somehow it will all come back to them. This scam is not based on anything but money, not on a real online business or rarely on a product. It's just money changing hands over and over again until someone goes to the bank with it all. Game Over!

Online business network marketing is based on providing people with real, legitimate products they need and want at a fair price. While some people do make a lot of money through network marketing an online business, their financial benefit is always the result of their own efforts in building an organization that sells real products and services.

An online business isn't a get-rich-quick scheme. Yes, some people do make huge amounts of money over night, but for the average person it is a slow build. It takes a lot of due diligence in doing your homework finding just the right business to build. It will make or break the best entrepreneurs. Any smart potential business person knows to get beyond all the hype, know what you are about to involve yourself in. When all the whoop la is over, what are you left with?

Successful online business network marketing consists of people building their business and doing it in an organized manner. By helping the people you personally sponsor to sponsor others. Equally important you need to find a company where you can purchase their customers. You need to be part of an elite team of like minded individuals all dedicated to your success. This yoked team of people all working together as one building each business within the team. Sound good?

Then you have found what you are looking for with the Network Marketing Paradigm Group, a team effort streaming new distributors into our system. Not with email but with Google white hat top organic (not pay per click either) search engine rankings. Everyone is delegated to help. The total team effort is building the down line and very quickly. But we are not dependent on distributors alone. We also have real customers!

You won't believe how quickly our organization exploded when we started incorporating these strategies. Now you have truly found leverage in network marketing.

27. Developing Quality Business Opportunity Leads

When it comes to developing business opportunity leads, nothing is as important as getting your name out there into the public eye. No matter how big or small your business is, you need to let people know just who you are. You need to share your values, along with your business principals. Are you someone they can trust? Or are you just another scam artist, waiting to take down yet another victim.

So let's talk a bit more in detail just how important it is to brand yourself in your network marketing endeavors. The truth is if you have a brick and mortar business, you rely strongly on word of mouth adverting if you really wish to succeed. You can have all the money in the world to advertise, but if you are not what you say you are, it will not take long and you are done! That is a fact! The lies and deception will catch up with you fast. As the old adages goes "Bad news travels fast" and it sure does.

With that in mind, you do need quality business opportunity leads, in order to build a successful business. It many cases ruthless sharks have a much better advantage as they can hide deep within the net. They leave their bait all over and sit back and wait. It is just a matter of time before some unsuspecting person comes along, takes the bait and it is all over but the shouting. Thus you wonder why so many people are afraid of doing business online, it speaks for itself.

You need to be right out there telling all the world, literally, that you are a real person. Make sure your picture is out there along with your personal contact information. This is an important first step. Equally as important you need to be a person of your word, that your reputation precedes you. So how in the world does that make any difference, the net is so vast? Does any one really care who I am or what I stand for? Considering the fact there are millions of people on the Internet at any one time. Darn straight it matters. You do need to go the extra mile and take pride in who you are and what you represent. Believe me people do take notice.

How to develop a success business is about building relationships, built on trust. Doesn't matter online or off.. You need quality business opportunity leads. So share your passion, your vision, your message. Be consistent, and as a fore mentioned, stand true. Before you know it - business will follow you and bring with it everything you need

29. Home Based Business Needs Home Business Leads

"Home-based businesses are the trend of the future. Government and industry reports show that increasing numbers of men and women are now opting to work out of their homes. In fact, the latest data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics show that 4.12 million entrepreneurs are now working at home, most of which are in services industry." According to a recent article by Lyve Alexis Pleshette PowerHomeBiz Staff Writer

So what has brought us to this point? Did you ever think the day would come where working at home would become the "norm"in the workplace today? I know I certainly did not, perhaps that statement alone most certainly dates me. Oh well!

So what are some of the benefits in learning how to create an online business?

Not to mention the sheer fact you are saving fuel at around $4.17 a gallon. It's not only a savings to your pocketbook, but to our environment. Yet another vehicle off the road at least during the time it would have taken you to get to work.

You have freedom of time as you make your own hours. A work at home situation is ideal. This is especially helpful these days to mothers. Traditionally, if your child woke up sick in the morning you had to make a crucial decision immediately. Is my child sick enough that I need to risk my job and stay home? Many times mothers simply have no other choice other than to make their children attend school sick, as babysitting becomes an immediate issue.

Let's discuss the importance of tax benefits. This is HUGE, working at home has so many tax advantages from your mortgage down to the paper you bought at the office supply store. Be sure you talk to your accountant for every little detail made available to you. Plan ahead yearly and know your options. Oh and if you do not already have an accountant, I strongly suggest you get one. It is definitely worth the extra expense in the savings you will gain in your tax return yearly. These facts and many others are the reason more and more people are looking into how to create an online business. Not only to you, but to your entire family. Just think you will have more time to enjoy life. You will find your hours spent working are more productive, thus eliminating wasted time and effort.

These network marketing communication tips will keep you visible with your target market.

First one being voice mail - you can personalize your greeting to carry out just the right kind of message to catch any prospective attention.

Second marketing idea for your online business would be business cards, it has often been said a business card is your personal handshake, a view into your business both online and off.

I know I have several, and I have known them for years now.

Make sure you always stay in touch with everyone in your customer base. Keep them abreast of what is going on in your life, just a simple oh my daughter graduated from high school last week, or we have a new family pet, things of this nature. Not that the neighbor's teenage son strung toilet paper all over your tree. Keep it simple and personal, people really do like to know they are doing business with some real. Network marketing is about helping others in my mind. You are trying to reach out and share your business to others. Not everyone will obviously be interested in what you are doing, but then again, you will find some that are.

In your pursuit in network marketing for your online business don't forget about press releases, there are many no cost and low cost news release distribution services.

Knowing that just getting traffic to your site isn't enough to make a sale. What is the conversation rate for your visitors? If you have hundreds of visitors and only one sale, is it worth it? You also need to factor in exactly how much you are in fact making off one single sale, vs. the cost to drive that traffic to your site for that one sale. Are you going out of business or is your business strong?

Exactly what is it costing you to advertise your business? In essence what exactly are you paying for? You really need to think about this often overlooked aspect of your business. It important to think about the advertising aspect of your business. The company provides you with a fully functional web site, that enables you to sign up customers and/or distributors.

Whether or not you understand how to harness and use SEO (search engine optimization)or you use pay per click, you need to do the math and find out if the cost of advertising is producing a profit when you do in fact find a customer and/or distributor. It is the cost of doing business. It is a numbers game, because let's face it, even though you sign up a new distributor, doesn't mean that distributor will be as successful as you.

99 percent of network marketing organizations are built with nothing but distributors (sales people). Everyone is put at a disadvantage because they're all in competition with each other for more distributors. Example: When you recruit three and they recruit three and they recruit three and they recruit three and they also recruit three your leading edge of 243 hungry distributors (sales people) represents 67 percent of your organization and none of them are making money. If they don't start making money soon, they quit and there goes your organization into a collapse. Why because they are not customers! They are only buying the product because of the promise to make money. Eventually they either quit or move on to another company or leave the industry all together.

You need to do the math and find out what works best for you. I personally do not purchase leads of any kind. Nor do I call people cold from the phone book. I do not bother my friends and neighbors with my business, in essence begging them to join. I simply purchase happy customers that are already purchasing products. Plain and simple!

It would be a very good idea to look into purchasing the product at wholesale price as a distributor, so that you can get the product out there to your possible ACT Energy Drink leads (DrinkACT). A good idea to have plenty of product on hand, as you just never know. There are many different places and as well as people to talk to about your business.

I know that ACT Energy Drink is a great company, I am sure they have a great product. The problem is and I am not alone in this. I am tired of buying up product in bulk, even at wholesale pricing. I am tired of running all over town, going door step to door step trying to find quality ACT Energy Drink leads, giving away free samples. I love people, and I sure do not have a problem in talking to them. But you know what? Not everyone feels that way. In fact if the truth were told, many people would love to be in business, they just can not seem to find any financial success based on one simple fact. In this business and many other businesses based on this same business model, have one fatal flaw...It is based on duplication.

99 percent of network marketing organizations are built with nothing but distributors (sales people). Everyone is put at a disadvantage because they're all in competition with each other for more distributors. Example: When you recruit three and they recruit three and they recruit three and they recruit three and they also recruit three your leading edge of 243 hungry distributors (sales people) represents 67 percent of your organization and none of them are making money.

I do not mean to be brutal or discredit any business endeavor you are personally involved with that has brought you to do a search on Google for ACT Energy Drink Leads. I just know, I personally do not buy leads at all. Been there done that. Buying leads is a total waste of your time. Why try and build a business buying leads?

Perhaps it is time to consider a different approach to building a business

1) Buy customers to give your business a solid foundation
2) Learn how to work with a successful team of like minded individuals

37. Looking For Business Opportunity Leads to Break Free From The Nine to Five?

Your boss isn't seeing eye-to-eye with you lately, they're pushing you to do more than you can reasonably do in eight hours and you're tired of having to put up with the whole mess. Not to mention all of the office politics, sick of all the gossip and everything else that goes on at work.

So you have decided to build an home based business, what do you need to get started in this endeavor? You need a ultimate powerful system of leads, fresh business opportunity leads, delivered daily. It is a numbers game, so the more the merrier, the better your success. You need that database of leads to receive your auto responder emails with professionally written letters encouraging these potential distributors to go to your business opportunity leads web site so that they can sign up into your business. It would be a very good idea if you really want to build your business to purchase these leads on a monthly basis, for ultimate success.

I personally do not buy business opportunity leads, been there done that my friend, and I am here to tell you there is a better way. We are in the 22nd century, and a new day is dawning in the way business is done!

What works is teamwork, teamwork coupled with a prestigious marketing system equals success. The Network Marketing Paradigm Group is a combined effort bringing in new affiliates into the system. This method of finding affiliates is not done with spam email, but with white hat top organic search engine ranking. This method of top ranking is done with delegation not duplication. Together, The Network Marketing Paradigm Group works in unison, building the down line and very quickly within the team. We are not dependent on distributors alone, we also have real customers, enjoying outstanding products and service.

What if every distributor had 100 real customers? "What if those customers loved the product and didn't care about earning nor were involved in making money? What if instead of buying leads (Like 99% of the MLMs will tell you to do) you could just buy customers instead? I think you can see the advantage this represents!

38. ACT Energy Drink Leads

Businesses today have to keep up with the competition in order to be successful. Could you use some good ACT Energy Drink Leads? One tool that helps many businesses do this is lead manager software. Different types of lead manager software exist for different business owner’s needs. The basic purpose of lead manager software, however, is to help businesses streamline their computer usage.

A lead, in a marketing context, is a potential sales contact, an individual or organization that expresses an interest in your goods or services. Leads are typically obtained through the referral of an existing customer, or through a direct response to advertising/publicity. A company's marketing department is typically responsible for lead generation.

Most people don't realize there is a difference between these two types of leads. In fact most people think the terms are synonomous. Here is the truth

Phone Verified Leads - Leads that are generated through an autodialer. The computerized autodialer calls through older and cheaper leads. When the person answers the phone, a touch-tone phone interview is conducted where the person punches certain numbers on their phone to answer a few questions. Autodialer interviews typically last about 1 minute.

Telephone Interviewed Leads - Leads that are called by a real person in a telemarketing call center. They are interviewed, qualified, and sorted by a real person. Live telephone interviews can last 5 - 10 minutes.

In fact about 95 percent of all websites that sell telephone interviewed leads are actually selling phone verified leads. It is quite likely the leads company selling the site doesn't know they are selling verified leads because they are only a reseller anyway.

So now it is time to decide which kind of lead will make for a good quality ACT Energy Drink lead.

Let me ask you this before you purchase one single ACT Energy Drink lead. Is building a business based on nothing but distributors buying product really going to succeed over the long run?

99 percent of network marketing organizations are built with nothing but distributors (sales people). Everyone is put at a disadvantage because they're all in competition with each other for more distributors. Example: When you recruit three and they recruit three and they recruit three and they recruit three and they also recruit three your leading edge of 243 hungry distributors (sales people) represents 67 percent of your organization and none of them are making money. If they don't start making money soon, they quit and there goes your organization into a collapse. Why because they are not customers! They are only buying the product because of the promise to make money. Eventually they either quit or move on to another company or leave the industry all together.

You haven’t had success in network marketing until you’ve been in the "Ultimate Sponsoring program" that pays from the bottom up with perpetual compression. It’s a total win-win for everyone involved

39. Leads - Not Many Can Build a Substantial Business

Not many can build a substantial business just from your warm market. Yes, many new distributors have come in with a huge following, or down line, bringing instant financial success, a good kick start. But it is not the norm.

Having said all that, where can you find top quality leads. Do you purchase them from a reliable leads broker, or are you building a opt in list database in order to send out information about your business? Are you running advertisement in a local newspaper or online classifieds. Maybe perhaps you have joined E-Zine sites, thus writing articles about your business. There are in fact many ways to find good quality leads without breaking the bank. It does take time, and a whole lot of effort on your behalf. But the rewards are you have a lot of good leads to speak with. Not to mention the fact much of your business is based on customers, you need to find customers to purchase your product, and hopefully these customers will want to join you as a business partner, a fellow distributor. Now you need to teach them the very same way you are doing it. It is called duplication. That truly is the way these types of businesses are build. You need to teach people to do just like you. Often distributors that have huge down lines become mentors or motivational speakers, and with little wonder, it is extremely hard to keep people going in the same direction as you.

The reason why 99 percent of MLM opportunities fall apart from distributor attrition or fall out is because 99 percent of MLM companies are all DISTRIBUTORS not CUSTOMERS! So you need to work extra hard in finding good quality ACT Energy Drink Leads. Then you need to find a bunch of customers purchasing your product, this is crucial to your success.

You have a huge task ahead of you to watch out for all your new distributors, you want to get them duplicating just like you and start making money because you don't want them to struggle for months only to become discouraged and quit. A friend told me a cute saying about some MLM companies and finding distributors, it goes like this...It is like putting cats in a box, you put one in, and a bunch jump out. You need to build your ACT Energy Drink business with rock solid ACT Energy Drink Leads for Ultimate success!

Personally, I am done trying to build a business based on purchasing any kind of lead. Leads are expensive, and quite honestly, I am not a sales person, I hate to pick up the phone and call leads of any kind. I would much rather do business another way. The trends are changing in business today, and I am tired of doing business the OLD SCHOOL WAY, I think maybe if you are truthful you are too...

40. ACT Energy Drink Leads

Given the fact we all need an energy drink now and then to perk ourselves up, a lift during the day. Thus building a business around an energy drink can make a lot of sense.

DrinkACT.com ACT Energy Drink is a web based energy drink company founded in June 2005 by Paul Gravette and Mark McKnight. DrinkACT.com intends to become the most powerful web based energy drink affiliate program in the world by attracting hundreds of thousands of customers from around the globe who simply want to feel good.

One quick search on the internet will result in a ton of web sites promoting free MLM leads. While cost savings are beneficial, the term FREE can also indicate a situation that is too good to be true. If the business owner decides to take advantage of some of the free ACT Energy Drink leads available, he or she must take care to look into the background of the third party company that is supplying these leads. It is also important that the MLM business owner check his or her list of free MLM leads against the Do Not Call (DNC) Registry every 90 days. This will ensure that the list is updated regularly and that the leads remain fresh

In order to determine the quality of a lead here is an example of some of the questions mlm business leads will provide.

How much money can you invest?
How much time can you invest?
Do you have any experience in network marketing?
When can you get started?

The answers will help you determine whether or not these are possible ACT Energy Drink Leads. A properly designed business plan will greatly increase your response rate from any business leads you purchase. Therefore, you need to have knowledge of your business opportunity, you need to be able to speak with clarity and confidence, thus relaying your enthusiasm and determination to any potential lead you speak with. This is KEY.

In essence you are pre-qualifying these leads, you are making the determination as to whether or not they will make a good business partner or not. This helps you to have the best possible representation of any lead. You need to know is this person a go getter, does this person have what it takes to be in business, can they ride the tides of change, can they stand tall in victory, as well as the deep disappointment of defeat. Anyone can sign up to build a business, but what good is a bunch of people in your ACT Energy Drink business, if no one is walling to do as you?

If you are short on cash, like so many other net workers are, you might want to consider a personal one on one coaching session to evaluate your situation and get some strategies to get you more mlm business leads and into a positive cash flow with any of the zillion leads companies online. Many sites have what they call site helpers to assist you in your decision on purchasing ACT Energy Drink leads. Or a good working phone number, without a long wait, is very helpful in the process as well.

May I be honest with you? I have spent a lot of money in the past purchasing leads, leads of all kinds. I have done my due diligence in trying to build a business based on leads. The truth is....

99 percent of network marketing organizations are built with nothing but distributors (sales people). Everyone is put at a disadvantage because they're all in competition with each other for more distributors. Example: When you recruit three and they recruit three and they recruit three and they recruit three and they also recruit three your leading edge of 243 hungry distributors (sales people) represents 67 percent of your organization and none of them are making money. If they don't start making money soon, they quit and there goes your organization into a collapse. Why because they are not customers! They are only buying the product because of the promise to make money. Eventually they either quit or move on to another company or leave the industry all together.

43. ACT Energy Drink Leads

Most list vendors price their leads too high when you consider that most direct mail experts suggest using a minimum quantity of 500 - 1,000 names to test a list or to begin a marketing campaign.

45. The Phone Interviewed Lead

One great method of building a mlm business is using pre-interviewed leads. These are people who have already heard from a live person who has interviewed the your mlm business leads. This mlm prospect will totally understand that 2 or 3 people will be calling them with information on the best home based business today. Your job will be to share your information and follow up. Don't be alarmed if these mlm business leads run you $2-8 per lead. I know a friend that can get them to you for about $2.50 per interviewed mlm lead. And that is a good price.

In order to determine the quality of a lead here is an example of some of the questions mlm business leads will provide.

How much money can you invest?

46. ACT Energy Drink Leads
Would you buy an expensive car without test driving it? Cars and leads lists have something in common as the only way you will know if a leads source is a quality lists is to test-drive the list. There can be many reasons for FAILURE in your business, but finding a good source of ACT Energy Drink leads does have to be the reason.

Most list vendors price their leads too high when you consider that most direct mail experts suggest using a minimum quantity of 500 - 1,000 names to test a list or to begin a marketing campaign. Who wants to buy a lot of high priced names and throw their money away on an unknown? And if you do not use enough names, your results may be less than satisfactory, even with a good list. It is a classic catch-22 situation.

The bottom line you need ACT Energy Drink RESPONDENT Leads, leads have requested business or income opportunity information. Opt-in MLM lists and other recommended lead solutions offer a better way to market your product or program. Another option is TARGETED MLM Lists To be successful in the shortest amount of time, you will want to contact the right type of prospect. You want TARGETED leads MLM lists of opportunity seekers who have expressed an interest in making money, extra income offers or home-business opportunities. Exclusive MLM leads are not sold to others in the same MLM programs. This helps to insure that your mailer or telephone call will NOT offer the same program to the same prospect. However, the cost of these EXCLUSIVE can be way over budget. These are very pricey leads. Not always just what you thought you were buying, meaning, these types of high end leads may have been contacted prior to your purchase of the lead.

It is a science and an art to understand the various LEVELS of leads you can purchase. It is not alone trying to understand the logistics of these various types of leads, but where to buy them and from whom. It is very important to do your due diligence in researching companies that sell you any leads, after all you are in the market to purchase ACT Energy Drink leads to grow your business, not just to line the pockets of the leads company.

I do not mean to be brutal or discredit any business endeavor you are personally involved with that has brought you to do a search on Google for ACT Energy Drink Leads. I just know, I personally do not buy leads at all. Been there done that. Buying leads is a total waste of your time. Why try and build a business buying leads?

Perhaps it is time to consider a different approach to building a business

47. ACT Energy Drink Leads
One of the main goals of a multi-level marketing independent distributor (business owner) is to sell the product or service of the parent company. However, an equally important goal is to encourage the customer to also become an independent distributor within that business owner’s network and sell the services or product. Prospects who may be interested in becoming distributors are known as leads. The multi level marketing business owner can generate his or her own leads through referrals from family members, friends, and acquaintances. These leads can also be generated through a variety of marketing tools, including surveys, event or trade show promotions, and informative websites. One quick and convenient way to acquire ACT Energy Drink leads lists is to simply buy the list from a third party company.

For the new multi level marketing business owner, these methods may be too costly or time consuming. One quick search on the internet will result in a ton of web sites promoting free MLM leads. While cost savings are beneficial, the term FREE can also indicate a situation that is too good to be true. If the business owner decides to take advantage of some of the free ACT Energy Drink leads available, he or she must take care to look into the background of the third party company that is supplying these leads. It is also important that the MLM business owner check his or her list of free MLM leads against the Do Not Call (DNC) Registry every 90 days. This will ensure that the list is updated regularly and that the leads remain fresh

48. Are You Still Trying to Find Leads The Old School Way?

It all begins with a dream, the dream of owning your own business. Part of the business is finding quality people to talk too. Without growth you have no business, anyone in business knows this. It boils down to whether or not you are going to call everyone you know from your memory jogger list, beginning with Grandma, your poor old granny, geez...do we need to go there...Well you get the idea. Once your warm market is spent you need to find other means of growth to your ACT Energy Drink business.

Are you ready to hand out flyers in the parking lot, post calling cards at gas stations, rest rooms, malls, your hair dresser, barber? Oh yes, did I mention on telephone poles? Have you hit every laundry mat within a 100 mile radius, how about donut shops? Problem is this is crazy and generally produces little to no results. Have you tried the phone book? Have you spent a fortune on post cards and bulk rate mailings so that everyone in your neighborhood knows what your doing? Have you placed ads in local freebie newspapers? How about every classified ad you could find both online and off? Still no real prospects from your hard work?

Guess it is time to think about purchasing leads. There are many ways you can go with this, in fact there is a science to lead purchasing, and knowing who has the best leads to buy. How many to buy, what kind to buy and so on and so on. Lead companies are becoming very proficient in their marketing campaigns in order to bring in more business. Along with that you can actually purchase leads specifically designated for most any mlm company, thus bringing the odds down a bit for more actual sign ups into your business. But at what cost? Well some examples are to the tune of 20 company specific real time leads for $77.00, that is around $4.00 a lead if my calculator has fresh batteries and working correctly. I guess that isn't bad if you can get a hold of these leads and develop them into a real time lead. But what is the fine print of these leads, have they been called before, how old are they? How do you know they are specific to my business? Did someone ask them already? I don't know about you...BUT...

This is old school marketing....and this old way of thinking isn’t profitable....

If you are truly ready to experience ultimate success in a business. I invite you to one of our free presentations on how we are together building long term walk way incomes in record time with synergy and teamwork. The Network Marketing Paradigm Group! See how the Network Marketing Paradigm Group Sponsoring program has truly changed the face of how a successful business is built.

Energy drink companies provides new distributors a free web site in order to build their business. In order to build your Energy Drink business you simply need to hand out free samples of the product. Call that person back in an hour and ask them how they feel. This is what sells energy drinks to people, they feel more energy. As a distributor you do not need to pass out CD's or brochures. The products sells for you.

The energy drink companies also has a lead programs in order to build your energy drink business, but highly recommends that you first talk to all your friends and family first. Get out a list and write down EVERYONE you know. You will need to get a sample pouches of the product and have them on hand. As a general rule of thumb you need to hand out two samples per day. Make sure your list is full of names to contact. Folks like your hairdresser, mailman, lawyer, accountant, dog groomer, maid, think of everyone you have come in contact with. Make sure they get a sample and you will have lots and lots of customers.

When you run out of your WARM MARKET, you will need to purchase those leads. It will cost you money, it will cost you time. You can purchase these leads at various levels. There are A leads are high quality sales opportunities that in the short term get you in to the sales cycle and build your sales pipeline. Generally these A leads have PAIN and are also motivated to do something about their PAIN. With this in mind, many of the below factors are typically present in an A Lead, Prospects who are adding, upgrading, moving, renovating or making changes that create a need for your product or service, Prospects who express receptivity in learning more about your product or service, Prospects who are looking for a solution to a business problem they are experiencing, Prospects who are unhappy with their present service, product or vendor, Prospects who are SHOPPING OUT as a part of a review process, Prospects who express interest in a new product, service or technology.

Prospects who are interested in learning more about a new method or system to help bring operational efficiencies to their business Many of the above factors are also typically present in B Leads but a prospects motivation to do something about their pain may not be clearly defined.

If you too would like to learn about ultimate teamwork and synergy as one. Together building a business that will last a lifetime. Then you need to take a look and see for yourself.

50. Leads Are The Lifeblood

Leads are the lifeblood of doing business online. It is no small wonder why lead companies come and go. It is a hard world out there and they just do not know how to deliver guaranteed leads. That is what separates the good multi level marketing brokers from the bad. Online marketing for a MLM business generally can be done only in two well known ways. One is for money, the other is not. Each one has its own advantages. When you choose to pay for advertisement in order to attract visitors to your website and towards your MLM business, you will save a lot of time and you may get some profit sooner. The other method, which can produce leads for your business, requires time and effort on your part.

One of the main goals of a multi-level marketing independent distributor (business owner) is to sell the product or service of the parent company. However, an equally important goal is to encourage the customer to also become an independent distributor within that business owner’s network and sell the services or product. Prospects who may be interested in becoming distributors are known as leads. The multi level marketing business owner can generate his or her own leads through referrals from family members, friends, and acquaintances. These leads can also be generated through a variety of marketing tools, including surveys, event or trade show promotions, and informative websites. One quick and convenient way to acquire leads lists is to simply buy the list from a third party company.

For the new multi level marketing business owner, these methods may be too costly or time consuming. One quick search on the Internet will result in a ton of web sites promoting free MLM leads. While cost savings are beneficial, the term FREE can also indicate a situation that is too good to be true. If the business owner decides to take advantage of some of the free leads available, he or she must take care to look into the background of the third party company that is supplying these leads. It is also important that the MLM business owner check his or her list of free MLM leads against the Do Not Call (DNC) Registry every 90 days. This will ensure that the list is updated regularly and that the leads remain fresh.

51. Business Opportunity Leads

Selling is an art, without a doubt. Perhaps even a sport. It takes energy, guts, brains and a bit of panache to barge into people’s work days and win them over. It helps, of course, if they are already looking for your particular service or product.

The road of self employment can be bitter sweet indeed. It takes a lot of very hard work and dedication to make it happen. Not to mention many sacrifices that are not easy to give up. But the rewards of true success will far out weigh what you gave up to get there.

A properly built list of business opportunity leads is more than basic demographics and phone number. A sales leads list is a tool for turning strangers into acquaintances and, if not personal friends, at least into loyal and regular customers.

It is difficult to purchase premium business opportunity leads that have not already been called thousands of times by every other opportunity affiliate. Especially today with the Internet as the source of find these leads. These ACT Energy leads are very pricey, and really you have no true guarantee that no one else has contacted them first. It is a high price to pay and an even bigger gamble on your part.

Least we not forget that even when you do find a quality business opportunity leads, you need to be able to share the opportunity with that prospect, with enlightened enthusiasm, prescience to be able to help your prospect see the vision as you do. Then you must be dedicated to follow through until the close of the deal.

I just personally know my limitations when it comes to finding good business opportunity leads to talk to. It is not alone the ever frustrating pursuit of trying to get the prospect to answer the phone, then to muster up the courage to begin to share the opportunity with them.

I have a better way. I simply buy customers. I do not call leads. I work with a team of like minded entrepreneurs, as together we are building true walk away income and no one is left behind. Network Marketing Paradigm Group

55. ACT Energy Drink Leads

The desire to build a better life in these trying times has never been more focused in the minds of so many. The world today has become a very expensive place to live for which there is no doubt.

If you are looking to activate your lifestyle, bring a much needed financial boost, then you need to consider ACT Energy Drink. Join in the mult billion dollar energy drink market.

A.C.T. stands for Advanced Cellular Technology. ACT Energy Drink contains all natural ingredients, contains low sugar, low carbs and has 24 calories per serving. It gives a healthy energy boost and is the perfect drink for people looking to lose weight. There are no jitters, anxious feelings, or jolt and crash.

Sound good to you? Let us take a further look at this company and how to build your ACT Energy Drink business. First of all you need ACT Energy Drink leads to talk too regarding your business. Since ACT Energy Drink DrinkACT.com is a Internet driven home based business you need an online presence to generate leads. You need a ACT Energy Drink web site to share your business opportunity with the world. Once you have this web site be sure to share it with all your friends and family. You will need to make the investment in business cards including your site, name and phone number for all to see. But how will you distribute those cards? You need volume daily to visit your site. Perhaps you can hire an SEO expert to help you gain good search engine ranking. But where do you get started in finding a good one? Do you have that kind of money to invest in your business?

Additionally in your pursuit of promotion and marketing what else can you do to get people to sign up in your ACT Energy Drink business, both online or off, do you have enough ACT Energy Drink leads to speak to. Should you buy some ? What kind of ACT Energy Drink leads should you buy? What do you say to them, how can you get them to your web site so that they sign up? More importantly will these new people duplicate your process?

The reason why 99 percent of MLM opportunities fall apart from distributor attrition or "fall out" is because 99 percent of MLM companies are all DISTRIBUTORS not CUSTOMERS.

Everyone is put at a disadvantage because they're all in competition with each other for more distributors. Example When you recruit three and they recruit three and they recruit three and they recruit three and they also recruit three your leading edge of 243 hungry distributors (sales people) represents 67% of your organization and none of them are making money. If they don't start making money soon, they quit and there goes your organization into a collapse. Why because they are not customers! They are only buying the product because of the promise to make money. Eventually they either quit or move on to another company or leave the industry all together.

LEARN HOW TO BUILD WITH SYNERGY AND TEAMWORK

I do not buy leads, I buy customers. The "Ultimate Team sponsoring system" is making history. The fact we are breaking records in our growth. The Ultimate Team leaves no one behind. It is all for one and one for all.

It is simple and requires no prior experience. Almost anyone can do it.

FREE membership, FREE marketing website and FREE training provided
Ground floor opportunity with new international markets opening now
Easy network duplication and long-term recurring orders passive income

Simple system to find a few people that also want to make money. They find a few others and so on. You can get paid on ALL TEAM SALES, not just your own. Super low starting costs. Almost anyone can afford to do this business and prosper.

Does all this sound familiar to you? It sure does to me. Let us look at some simple facts. In order to build an ACT Energy Drink business you need ACT Energy Drink leads. You are building a business based on distributors that too are following you in the duplication process. Therein lies a difficult task. I know personally for me I have tried building several businesses based on model in the past. All ending in failure. What happens why doesn't this work?

The reason why 99 percent of MLM opportunities fall apart from distributor attrition or "fall out" is because 99 percent of MLM companies are all DISTRIBUTORS not CUSTOMERS. Thus you need to build your business on finding ACT Energy Drink Leads and hoping to sign up distributors and so on and so on. Building a house of cards.

Everyone is put at a disadvantage because they're all in competition with each other for more distributors. Example When you recruit three and they recruit three and they recruit three and they recruit three and they also recruit three your leading edge of 243 hungry distributors (sales people) represents 67 percent of your organization and none of them are making money. If they don't start making money soon they quit and there goes your organization into a collapse. Why because they are not customers! They are only buying the product because of the promise to make money. Eventually they either quit or move on to another company or leave the industry all together. Duplication doesn't work so what does? You haven't had success in network marketing until you’ve been in the Ultimate Sponsoring program that pays from the bottom up with "perpetual compression". It's a total win-win for everyone involved. Combine this with network marketing’s hottest and most proven product (HINT:customers) and you’ll soon find out why we’re the #1 growth organization in network marketing today.

Here is to your success,

60. Can You Afford to Pay for this Quality Lead?

Have a desire to Earn Immediate and Long-Term Residual Income?

Reputable lead brokers will work with you to put together some truly awesome packages to help accelerate home-business growth and they will do so at a price that hardly seams real! They purchase millions of quality leads every month. Once they get them, they sell these leads at various levels and prices, depends on the number of times these leads were sold to others.

Let us with a start with a phone interviewed lead these are custom generated to suit you and your group's business needs. Leads of this type are typically around $6 to $12 per lead however you can get discount group rates if you so desire. You simply need to shop around to various lead companies. Or ask for a referral from other business affiliates

The prospect is then further questioned as to how much money you would be willing to invest in a home based business. How much time would you be willing to spend building a business? What type of a home based business are you looking for?

So from this point on this prospect has now become a very expensive prime lead and will be sold accordingly. This lead will have provided their name, valid phone number and email address. This particular type of lead NEEDS to be called right away.

My question now becomes to you as a business affiliate can you afford to pay for this quality lead? How many can you honestly afford to purchase in your monthly business budget. What is the ratio to a lead purchase vs. actual sign ups?

You need to do the math and find out what works best for you. I personally do not purchase leads of any kind. Nor do I call people cold from the phone book. I do not bother my friends and neighbors with my business, in essence begging them to join. I simply purchase happy customers that are already purchasing products. Plain and simple!

If you too would like to learn about building a business not based on distributors buying products, but simply purchasing customers. To join a group that works as synergy as one. Together building a business that will last a lifetime. Then you need to take a look and see for yourself.

67. Why Buy Leads?

Why buy leads? I purchase customers already enjoying the benefits of superior products and service. Customers that are satisfied and happy. These customers cost $50.00 each. That is it! No spending a fortune trying to promote a product; countless hours and money with NO guarantee of success. No trying to develop a lead into hopefully joining you in business. All this is way too expensive and time consuming for me. Besides, just because you may have found success in doing business this way, doesn't mean everyone else you bring into your business will do the same as you. Success comes in finding something that truly works, a business model based on security, peace of mind, not laying awake at nights worrying about how you will find people to talk too, businesses that will allow you to put your product on their shelves. Continually marketing, throwing away your hard earned money. Why not stop the insanity! Think smart, think savvy, think today! I invite you to join me and countless others that are tired of the OLD ways of doing business!

It is about time to make a change for the better. Stop the insanity. Join a group of like minded individuals all dedicated to the ultimate success of the team.

The average energy drink out their sells between $2.50-$3.00 so we are at least $1 cheaper than any other energy drink out there and we are the ONLY all natural energy drink on the market!

Let’s face it, Web Marketing is not easy for newbies. With so many different strategies and web techniques to master, web marketing is a skill set that is more often than not learned the hard way from personal trial and error.

How about a simple approach to building a business at home? No buying leads? Or running your friends and family off when they see you coming, as you have yet another "Great Opportunity"...#1 Business on the Internet! It's all hype...

I personally do not buy leads. I purchase customers that are already enjoying the benefits of great products amd service. Besides, I hate cold calling people, I hate the rejection and the deep disappointment in hoping that I will be able to convey my enthusiam to another potential business person. It never works! Believe me I have purchased leads in the past, turns out those expensive leads have all ready been contacted by hundreds of other company affiliates; so at that point these leads are not worth anything! You might just as well pick up the phone book and start with the letter A. Atleast it didn't cost you anything but your time - and your confidence...

Specialized crystalline extracts from fruits and vegetables and other extracts from plants and herbs are combined to deliver results. Take it anywhere in the EASY TO USE packets!

ACT Energy Drink is also much more cost effective than store bought energy drinks! TASTES GREAT IN GATORADE!!!!!

One of the best natural energy boosters you can buy! ACT energy drink is the break through Drink of the Decade. ACT Energy drink by m2cglobal generates super vitality. A unique blend of nutrients from herbs, fruit, extracts, vitamins and minerals delivers fast-acting ACT energy drink results.

Every cell in your body depends on energy to perform critical functions. Most people eat foods high in calories and low in nutrients, curtailing the cell's ability to perform. A.C.T. Energy Drink targets specific metabolic pathways to create optimal balance and performance at the cellular level. Nutrients abound in plants, herbs, fruits and vegetables. A.C.T. Energy Drinks combine specialized crystalline extracts from these various natural sources with a proprietary blend of ingredients to produce positive results. Have both ENERGY and NUTRIENTS working together for you, as advanced science and nature are united in every serving of A.C.T. Energy Drink!

Retailers are recognizing the market potential of A.C.T. Energy Drink. This product has opened a huge distribution channel that normally is not available in network marketing. With A.C.T. Energy Drink you are able to recruit entire, single retail locations (no chains allowed) as well as home-based opportunity seekers. No other company gives you this opportunity! A.C.T. Energy Drink is also attracting individual bar/restaurant owners and many other single locations...

Why buy leads? I purchase customers already enjoying the benefits of superior products and service. Customers that are satisfied and happy. These customers cost $50.00 each. That is it! No spending a fortune trying to promote a product; countless hours and money with NO guarantee of success. No trying to develop a lead into hopefully joining you in business. All this is way too expensive and time consuming for me. Besides, just because you may have found success in doing business this way, doesn't mean everyone else you bring into your business will do the same as you. Success comes in finding something that truly works, a business model based on security, peace of mind; not laying awake at nights worrying about how you will find people to talk too, businesses that will allow you to put your product on their shelves. Continually marketing, throwing away your hard earned money. Why not stop the insanity! Think smart, think savy, think today! I invite you to join me and countless others that are tired of the OLD ways of doing business!

Here is to your success,

10 REASONS WHY ACT ENERGY DRINK IS THE #1 PRODUCT IN ITS FIELD

• Contains NO Artificial Sweeteners
• CONTAINS NO ARTIFICIAL FLAVORS
• TASTES GREAT
• Burns 100 calories per drink (awesome thermogenic effect!)

ACT COSTS LESS ACT is the lowest costing energy drink on the market! The packets are only $1 each and the cans are $1.45 each. The average energy drink out their sells between $2.50-$3.00 so we are at least $1 cheaper than any other energy drink out there and we are the ONLY all natural energy drink on the market!

Along with purchasing product you need to purchase leads for your business...

Here are some options for purchasing leads..

$20 Get 2,000 opt in leads and 25 survey leads
$35 Get 4,000 opt in leads and 50 survey
$55 Get 8,000 opt in leads and 75 survey
$100 Get 20,000 opt in leads and 100 survey

Opt in Leads have full data including IP and date stamp and are generally considered good for large scale emailing via your favorite auto-responder or mailing program.

Survey Leads are targeted for home-based business people that would like to make additional money from home. They have full data and include 6-9 answered questions from the survey they filled out. These are generally good to mail but are best to contact via phone.

Why would you want to purchase leads? They are quite expensive, not to mention the fact whether or not they are Opt-in leads or Survey leads; leads are leads and they are just that...leads...not customers. Laads!

Why not buy customers? I simply purchase satisfied customers already using products. Simple as that...$50.00 each!

I hate making cold calls, I hate trying to drum up a conversation with strangers, in order to try and sell them on a product. If you are like me, then I would like to invite you to take a look at a unique well established business model.

A.C.T Energy Drink Review: Well here is another first for me as I am going to review the ACT energy drink today. What is this first you might be asking? Well this constitutes the first time that I have reviewed an energy drink powder. That's right, the concept behind Act, from M2C Global, is that you buy individual packets and then mix them with 8-10 ounces of water or your favorite juice. Well enough, background lets get on with the review of ACT energy drink from M2C Global.

A.C.T Energy Drink Review: Taste I was fortunate enough to get my hands on several samples of this product so I got to try mixing this powder with water and with juice. My first taste of the ACT drink came by mixing it with 10 ounces of water (as instructed on the packet) and the berry flavor was a little overwhelming. However, this issue was easily solved by adding about 5 ounces of water. So by mixing the ACT powder with 15 ounces of water the drink actually had a pleasant taste which I will give a taste rating of 7.5 which is pretty good. Mixing this powdered energy drink with sugar free fruit punch Kool Aid definitely upped the taste anti. By mixing in ACT and Sugar Free Kool Aid into a 10 ounce shaker I got a very good tasting result causing me to give ACT mixed with sweet juice a taste rating of 8.2. Average taste rating of 7.9!

Drink A.C.T. Energy Drink is a breakthrough energy drink that generates a super- charged nutrient uptake into your body's cells within 10-15 minutes! As a result, you will experience the healthy, full body revitalization that only A.C.T. Energy Drink. can deliver... for hours at a time!

Whether it’s morning, afternoon, or night, A.C.T. Energy Drink will keep you on the go. Experience for yourself what consumers around the world are calling the " Feel Good" drink!

Every cell in your body depends on energy to perform critical functions. Most people eat foods high in calories and low in nutrients, curtailing the cell's ability to perform. A.C.T. Energy Drink targets specific metabolic pathways to create optimal balance and performance at the cellular level. Nutrients abound in plants, herbs, fruits and vegetables. A.C.T. Energy Drinks combine specialized crystalline extracts from these various natural sources with a proprietary blend of ingredients to produce positive results. Have both ENERGY and NUTRIENTS working together for you, as advanced science and nature are united in every serving of A.C.T. Energy Drink! A.C.T.™ or "activated cellular therapy" is the world's first healthy energy drink and a healthy "feel good" drink. A.C.T. is designed to activate metabolic pathways (Krebs cycle) to create energy at the mitochondrial sub-cellular level rather than increase fuel (calories). As a result, the energy effect created by the A.C.T. formula is generated for hours - a totally different approach from that of energy drinks that supply a short "spike" of energy produced by large doses of sugar.

I don't buy leads. I buy customers. They cost $50 each. Half of what the results of buying leads conversion cost without all the time spent. I don't have to make any calls. I don't get rejected. I do not have good telemarketing skills. I don't need them. And when I buy customers, they appear in my downline with out any effort on my part. And the 10% of my downline that are distributors do the same thing. We are happy buying customers not leads!

2. Tips for Business Success in Today's Tough Market Place
By Storm Castle

Does your company do business to business prospecting? Have you ever considered using an outbound telemarketing company? If you are wondering if your business will be able to endure the current economic troubles, this article is exactly what you need to read. There are six tips that can help your business find success even in a bad economy.

The following six tips are ways your company can not only survive, but thrive during tough economic times. Increasing your marketing budget, using the power of leverage, focusing your efforts where they will be most effective, properly training your employees, providing excellent customer service and keeping a positive attitude are all ways to keep your business profitable in difficult economic times.

The first way for increasing profits during a recession may sound backwards, but increasing the amount of money you spend on marketing your business instead of reducing it is one thing that can help your business make a profit during a recession. Countless businesses make the mistake of considering their marketing an expense instead of an investment and wind up destroying their businesses by cutting back in this area.

The second tip is to use the power of leverage by hiring a business to business prospecting company to do outbound telemarketing for your business. This helps your team use their time more wisely.

The next tip is to focus your efforts where they will be most effective, which is spending time closing sales. When the telemarketing programs do their job effectively your team can spend the majority of their time making sales which means increased profits for you.

The fourth tip involves properly training your employees to work with the highly qualified leads they receive from these lead generation companies. Proper training will help them make the most of these leads and sales will go through the roof regardless of what is happening in the economy.

The fifth tip for business success in tough economic times is to provide excellent customer service. Getting repeat business is much more cost effective and profitable than having to constantly prospect for new business so it is vital to keep your current customers happy.

The sixth and final tip for business success in tough economic times is keeping a positive attitude. People have a tendency to create the exact amount of success they believe they will and your positive attitude will be reflected in your employees' attitudes and achievements as well as your own.

Implementing the six ways listed above can help your business to increase profits during a recession. Business to business prospecting is one area to concentrate your marketing efforts in since this will make four of the six ways happen. Then all you have to worry about are the last two ways including treating your clients to outstanding service and maintaining an optimistic outlook.

While we don't often think about - or even care - how the Google search engine works, it is very important for an online marketer who is using search engine optimization, or natural search marketing for their online business to understand the basic principles that drive Google.

There are three main parts to Google: Googlebot, The Indexer, and the Query Processor. Each of these three parts is crucial to online businesses, believe it or not. Let's take a deep look at each of these Google elements to see how they work.

Googlebot is the search engine spider that comes to your website and spiders your pages. It isn't an actual spider, of course.

It actually works more like a web browser by calling a server and requesting pages, and downloading them - just as you do when you open your browser, type in an URI, and then the web page loads.

Googlebot, however, is run by big number of computers and performs this task much faster than one user could on their home or work personal computer. And Googlebot doesn't know if a website exists until a URL is put into their Add URL form, or until they find a link point to that site on another web page.

When Googlebot comes to a page, they take all the links from that page, and put them in a queue for crawling, and repeat this process over and over again. Once Googlebot has found a link, and downloaded the page, it hands that page off to the Indexer.

The Indexer stores the pages in Google's Index Data base. The Index then sorts all of the pages in its data base, alphabetically, by looking at all of the keywords on the pages. The Indexer does not pay any attention to what Google calls stop words, such as is, on, or, why, how, etc. It just pays attention to more important keyword type words.

The Indexer, after Indexing pages, waits for the Google Query Processor to ask it for a list of documents. A keyword is given to the Query Processor, which in turn asks the Indexer for a list of stored websites contain that keyword.

The Indexer then supplies the Query processor with a list of the documents, and the Query processor presents the documents to the user who requested the keyphrase.

You see, each element is important to the others. It all starts with the Googlebot finding your web page link on another site, or by you going to Google and using the Add form to submit your site.

8. Adelaide Small Business Need SEO
By Dr S Ausman

There are no secrets on how to rank high with the major search engines because effective search engine optimizations are now immense. What is search engine optimization? Before we discuss that thing, you have to understand first how search engines work and a bit of know-how.

Search engines are into providing their users with the most relevant and up-to-date information to match the search term that was used. They are sophisticated pieces of technology which allow users to quickly find relevant websites by searching for a word or a phrase. Search engine results are useless to users if the information doesn't relate to the search term, or if the results are old. People expect the most up-to-date and fresh information that is useful to them.

Updating your website everyday and adding some materials will help you get noticed by the search engines. So, if you are going to sell any type of product or service online, you have to optimize your website for the search engines, in order to boost traffic and sales. It is because over 90% of your business will likely come directly from search engine results. And for that reason, it is absolutely important to optimize your site for search engines for you to have the greatest deals in the entire world.

Search engine optimization (SEO) is the process by which webmasters or online business owners utilize strategic copy to augment their website's status. It is certain that the internet has grown so fast over the years and the competition for the best search engine position has created an enormous market. Therefore, better understanding the fundamental elements of Search Engine Optimization is vital for an online business' success.

Making use of effective search engine optimization techniques will improve the page rank of your website. There are many tricks that can be used to increase page rank; the most effective method is to provide high quality content consistently. This seems like a simple concept but there are many websites that fails to provide content that visitors find interesting. Sites which provide content that are interesting, well-written and regularly updated create highly engaged visitors who are more likely to return to the website in the coming days. So, if you can set your website apart from those boring, lifeless sites then do it. You'll surely have a step closer to achieving high page rank through search engine optimization.

The next significant factor for an effective search engine optimization is to include keywords and phrases within your content. To make sure that you are properly targeting your market, you have to make sure that the keywords and phrases you have on your site are the keywords and phrase that your site is actually optimized for. The more keywords you use in your content, the more likely it is that online visitors will find your site when they do some research with those words. If you are unfailing with these techniques, then your overall search engine optimization will increase, boosting your page rank.

You should also have to develop a linking strategy as a part of your search engine optimization. Not only does this provide free advertising for your site, but it makes the impression that your site is imperative because of its affiliated links. For each link that you have pointing back to you, that is another chance for your potential customer to find you. The more inbound links that you have pointing to your site, the higher you will be ranked in the search engines.

Another is to develop a content stratagem. People who get to search from the internet are looking for information. The more information you provide for them and the more helpful it is, the more likely you will make the sale. Writing articles is the most effective way to build up content for your site. When writing articles to post on your site, make sure that you develop a clear means of arranging their content. You can do this by simply adding a new page to your site. This will allow room for extra articles to be added as you write them, and will allow you to build up an archive of articles which will maintain to draw online visitors. Make sure also that you have included your archived articles in a directory that is next to the root web of your site so that the search engines will catalog your online articles.

Always keep in mind that search engine optimization methods are important in developing your site's status. With that thing in mind, make sure that you write high-quality, keyword rich content and link your site to and from a deliberate family of other sites. These things will help improve your site's popularity and coerce increased business through your online business.

10. Get More Business with Autoresponders
By David Jessee

These days, most everyone is familiar with an autoresponder, although many don't know why they are beneficial to businesses. If you aren't familiar with autoresponders, you would probably find yourself amazed with them. An autoresponder can help your business by automatically emailing your clients and customers with a preset message that will help to increase your sales.

An autoresponder can help your list of clients grow, even send each one of them their own personalized email message. If you choose, you can also follow up each individual email with repeated emails, varying the content whenever you wish. These programs will also allow you to keep track of conversations, and send out broadcast email messages whenever you have news or new products to offer your clients.

As research in the past has shown, personalized email from autoresponders is a great way to boost your business. When you send a personalized email to one of your clients, the autoresponder by can address him or her by their name - which always makes a customer take notice. While you could do this yourself using traditional email, it could take you a few hours if you have a long list of customers.

Autoresponders make sending personalized email a snap. All you need to do is set up your email template, then select where you like the name to go. You can add everyone in your customer list to the autoresponder, which makes sending emails a snap. Once you have everything ready to go, all you need to do is send out the emails with one simple click. Best of all, you don't have to set it up again when you need to send out broadcast messages.

Although there are some people who will buy products after one or two emails, most people require about seven or eight emails before they will purchase anything. Autoresponders can really help you there, as they will do all of the emailing for you. You dont have to keep sending manual emails or anything like that. All you need to do is set up the email address, type in your preset message, and then feel free to send it as many times as you like.

Through the use of an autoresponder you can really boost your business. If you run an Internet marketing business, this tool will prove to be invaluable. You can spend less time sending messages and more time doing what you enjoy. If you've never tried an autoresponder before, you owe it yourself to check out everything they will do for you and your business. Online businesses can get a lot of emails on a daily basis, which is where the autoresponder will really start to shine and show you just how great of an asset it really is.

12. Adwords Management - 7 Keys to Success: Part 1
By George Kristopher

Most people advertising in Adwords today don't realize that they are losing tons of customers and leads all due to the fact that they don't know the 7 Key things they must do to set up a successful adwords campaign. If you follow these 7 key steps to setting up your adwords campaign, not only will your ad show up a lot higher in Google, but you'll also pay less per click than people advertising below you! Applying these 7 Crucial Steps will increase the amount of clicks you're getting per day and at the same time decrease the amount of money you're having to spend now!

Optimize Your Campaign For Google Are all of your keywords stuffed into one or just a few adgroups? Google hates it when campaigns are like this and determines that your campaign has 0 Relevancy! I know this strategy works, so for all of my clients I make their campaigns Super Relevant by taking each individual keyword and putting it in ad adgroup all on it's own! I know, it's days worth of work, but it reduces their click cost by an incredible amount! If you don't follow crucial step #1 you're going to be slapped! This means that Google will charge you insane amounts of money for your clicks and give your ads horrible placement.

Optimize your ads for Google The structure of your ads play a huge role in determining how much you pay per click. Just like in step #1 Google is obsessed with "Relevancy". Google's idea of a perfect ad actually has the keyword that was searched on show up twice in the ad; Once in the ad title, and once in the ad text. If Google see's that your ad displaying for the keyword, "injury attorney" actually has the keyword "injury attorney" appearing in your ad title and inyour ad text then Google is going to reward your ad for being perfectly relevant to the keyword that was searched on.

Google is going to reward you in two ways, 1) by charging you less per click and 2) by giving your ad a higher ad placement! But that's not all! Who searches on the keyword "injury attorney" will be more inclined to click on your ad because the actual keyword they searched on shows up twice in your ad! That means that by optimizing your ads you get more clicks, you spend less, AND you get higher ad placement! It's a win win situation!

You might ask, "Well how will I ever have time to write a super targeted ad like that for every keyword I have? That seems impossible!" Well, if you don't have time you should make time. My company write a super targeted ad for EVERY keyword that you have! It's a huge load of work, but we've found it's definitely worth it for our clients. Stay tuned for part 2 of this article series, on "Optimizing your site for Google and Keyword Swiping".

16. Google Gets Voice
Google GrandCentral has grown all up is being relaunched as Google Voice. This service will continue in beta testing with many new features. Grand Central was a start up "one-number access" telephone service that was purchased by Google soon after its debut.

This service will be styled similar to the Skype telephony business model, in that some of the calls are free, and international long distance will be offered at attractive rates way below what normal phone charges would be. As an example, calls to Canada reportedly will be one cent per minute.

This will be a great service for entrepreneurs, solopreneurs, and small office/home office workers, which now includes distance workers, telecommuters and digital nomads. Get in line and queue up for a free Google Voice number.

From The Blogosphere:

Google Voice Blog: Moving to Google Voice!

We are happy to announce that we have made a number of improvements to GrandCentral and are relaunching the service as Google Voice.

17. Depression Cooking Teaches
Check out Google Trends this morning, and you will see that Great Depression Cooking tops the charts. The television news anchors are starting to own up to the fact that we are in a depression, and not just your ordinary run of the mill recession.

Imports are down 24% and the economy in the US alone shrank over 6% in just one month. If you think there is any good news in this, it probably is only the fact we need to learn to individually become self reliant again. We can't sustain an economy where the only growth is in government.

If you have already lost your job, and are scratching your head as to what you will do when the unemployment insurance runs out, you may have figured out that it probably won't be a job like you had before. We are headed back to a more mercantile style society, where we each make and trade goods and services. Do you believe you can now start your own small office-home office based on new skills found learned and linked on the Internet?

If you are on your own SOHO quest, you may want to consider investing in and learning about working online. In many ways it is a quite separate and parallel economy. Almost unrelated to what is happening in the real world sector.

An alternative avocation is taking up the art of Depression Style Cooking.




18. SpiderWeb Will Rock the Web
Whoa Baby! This blog is getting whiskers. Anyone that has followed my path will know that I now have been heavy into educating myself about Internet marketing. Thus, the reason for no posts.

But I have been busy investigating. One of the schemes is a beta program known as The SpideWeb Marketing System. If you have seen it in passing, but did not consider it...keep looking. This had the potential to be the next big monetizing scheme for the web.


Many have tried to create a self-sustained or auto-pilot system. This supposedly started out with 12 streams of income, but now has 22. I have a gut feeling you have to work it like any other business.

It still is in beta, so don't hope for much. I had numerous conversation with the owners and management team of this system about creating an inner circle training program. Alas, everyone wants something for nothing. You can generate free leads, but then you have to know what to do with them.

Check out my blog on the subject, too, at "The SpiderWeb System Information and Reviews".


19. How to Produce 365 Videos in One Year
(Archived in: Online Income Reviews)

If you have been involved in the blogosphere for long, you know that many bloggers are gravitating towards video aka Video blogs, Vlogs, Vidcasts, or a Video Podcast.

This is a heads up on Mark Wielgus at 45n5.com. Mark is on top of online trends, and I am here to tell you that he researches, tests, and reports on things you will come to appreciate on a daily basis. All the information in this post was gleaned from 45n5. My belief is that Mark combines some marketing savvy with geekdom knowhow. He even writes simple, but useful utility programs and then gives them away for free on the blog. Here is a recent link to one he dubs "Keyword Scrubber".

45n5.com has turned into one of the few blogs I simply must check out on a daily basis. Now Mark is committed to deciphering Affiliate Marketing as a top priority. Another project he is combining with this effort is his personal mission to produce and post a video every day in 2008.

I think with 365 videos in the planning, his little experiment is one to watch for trends, plus the techniques, tips and tricks he is bound to uncover along the way. So, if you want to make 365 videos in one year, watch this guy in 2008 and I think you will learn something.



20. Prioritize Your Blogging for 2008
(Archived in: Social Media Marketing Social Media Optimization)

Welcome to the New Year! I have been spending the last week planning for 2008, which has included changes to my blogging style. If you follow my blogs, you know that I have decided to concentrate on Digital Nomads and The Rugged Notebooks Blog as my main focus for blogging, and with less frequent posting to this blog and The Sovereign Journey.

This is not for a lack or loss of interest, but merely a necessity of time management. Regardless, my blog niche revolves around the central theme of mobility and using technology to be independent. So, you can always check back here and/or catch my more frequent updates at the Rugged Notebooks or Digital Nomads sites. My plan this year is to move to private domains.

One thing I have been doing is writing more focused posts...themed, if you will, or a series of posts on a subject of interest. Recently, this has had a major slant towards telecom, and in particular new gadgets like MagicJack and VoIP telephoney solutions like Google GrandCentral.

I am finding that being more focused on a particular subject area makes it easier and more interesting to research, test, review, and write. I think my readers appreciate it a well and it is helping in the SERPS.

If you are still blogging, drop me a line and let me know how you are getting on. There seems to have been a drop in the number of friends I met online in 2007 that have continued to blog, or scaled back like I have. -Digital Nomad


21. Twelve Step Program for Email Addicts
(Archived in: Online Usability Reviews)

I saw this over at the BigString 2.0 website and thought it was good advice. BigString is an interesting concept in itself, which I will let you discover for yourself. These 12 items have been edited somewhat, so not to get dinged for duplicate content. There were some typos in the original text anyway. Enjoy.

1. Do not send email when you are angry. Wait until you calm down before you send that email. Feelings and thoughts can be difficult to interpret and easily misconstrued.

2. Never send a sarcastic email that could be taken out of context. Sarcasm and email do not mix. You can easily offend someone in an email without intent to do so.

3. Do not send email gossip. You never know where the email will end up. Just make a commitment to yourself not to participate in any gossip.

4. Never end significant relationships via email. Email is the equivalent of an electronic paper trail. Not good for any sour ending, whether business or personal.

5. If you don't want your boss or coworkers to see it, better not send that email from work.

6. Never put anything in writing that may come back to haunt you. A good overall policy. Not just for email.

7. Never, ever, hit ‘Reply to All’ when you just want to send an email to one individual.

8. Don’t email pictures of yourself to others. Especially, online acquaintances and complete strangers.

9. Don’t make promises or commitments via email that you cannot or will not keep.

10. When you send attachments, be sure that you have selected the correct files and documents.

11. Good advice from New York Governor Elliot Spitzer, “Never write when you can talk. Never talk when you can nod. And never put anything in an email.â€

12. Try BigString recallable email. If you do happen to make errors...the recallable, erasable, and non-forwardable features will help to correct such mistakes.



22. How to Build 10-Minute Affiliate Website Mashups
(Archived in: Online Income Reviews)

If you are searching for ways to be innovative with your online marketing, then here is another plug for many of the ideas featured at 45n5.com authored by Mark Wielgus. No, this is not a paid post.

This is the good stuff, it's an addendum to the post on "30 Websites in 30 Days", and Mark calls this his YouTube-Ebay-Amazon Affiliate Website Mashup Thingy.



I have had a few email exchanges with Mark, and these are a few of his cautionary thoughts by way of how he has explained the ideas behind how it should work. Most people will not succeed with this mashup concept, or any other website scripting without the underlying concept and knowledge (or experience from learning) of how to build such a niche site.

Cranking out "out of the box" and rubber stamp solutions is what everybody else is doing. Doing the same thing that everyone else is doing online will bring the same results...which happens to be not making any money online. This also happens to mirror Einstein's theory of insanity, and he was no dummy. It's also making many people wealthy for some pretty worthless online information products.

So, if you use the script out of the box, most of your money will be made from luck or successful keyword research (aka) what words and topics you use to build these niche minisites in mass production.

Now is the time to learn. Take the time to consider doing it right. - Digital Nomad


23. A SOHO Reprise of Honest Riches System
(Archived in: Online Income Reviews)

A 25 Year Old Entrepreneur Making a Living Online from Home


You probably have read about or heard of The Rich Jerk and Chis X of Day Job Killer. If not you better stop and do a Google search right now. About 2 years ago, Holly Mann, a young mother started to successfully market directly against high profile Internet marketing gurus like these guys.

Living in a foreign country with no job and few resources, Holly decided she could research, design, and deliver a kinder and gentler approach to online marketing. Evidently she found her niche selling "How-To" information, because she has become successful in a short period of time (well, a couple of years).

"Honest Riches 2" is a 95 page proven guide. Holly shows all the techniques she has used to make money online through affiliate programs starting with no website and no start-up money, then on to free websites that can easily be setup with little or no experience, including free advertising that most people don't know or think about.

Yes, it seems possible to make money online and work from home just about anywhere (Holly lives in Thailand), but don't quit your day job just yet. You need a system and you need the right tools and knowledge to be successful. Changing your career is a life altering decision.

Before taking the leap, do plenty of due diligence and adequate research for information and resources about starting an online business and becoming an online entrepreneur. This e-book is geared for beginners, but is a valuable resource for all online marketers. No "get-rich-quick" schemes here....like any real business endeavor, it involves some effort and some work. But you will learn strategies and techniques to start making money right away.

24. John Chow Calls It Quits on Agloco
(Archive in: Weblogs and Business)

After many attempts at beating a dead horse, everyone involved in the Agloco fiasco can now uncross their fingers. It ain't gonna happen. Even John Chow has finally admitted defeat along with almost 30,000 signed up in his Agloco network.


Here is a partial screenshot of his last post on the subject, and here is a link to the post about the Agloco demise at TechCruch. Like John says...it shows that all those MBAs don't always muster up success, even the second time around. For posterity, watch the video on the Agloco viewbar attributes, and think about all the gurus that were on board for this.



25. How to Build 30 Websites in 30 Days
(Archive in Ecommerce SOHO Online Usability)

It may sound implausible, but it is not impossible. Follow this Digital Nomad and you know that just feeding the blogs is not going to cut it anymore. Blogging should be part of your online marketing network, but not a diversion.

I have been searching heavy for the folks that are making it online and not the wannabes. One such source is 45n5.com authored by Mark Wielgus. This guy tells it straight. You have to hunt an peck to find the good stuff, and you will have to piece it together, but I think a good start is on this website.

Mark will show you how to find a niche, create a website in 10 minutes, and then shove it in the pipeline with some SEO tricks. Theoretically, there is no reason why you could not do this everyday for a month and then have 30 minisites up and running for affiliate programs in thirty days. That's if you want to have a website between you and the merchant.



I am finding that you maybe don't even need a website to market affiliate programs, but you do have to commit to spending some money for Google Adword campaigns. Better have a pad and pen ready.

There is always something to learn. Take the time to learn something new each day. - Digital Nomad

Corporations are escalating efforts to ship out jobs that pay well and build the middle class—and now they are aiming their axes at workers in the nation’s fast-growing white-collar sector.

The U.S. recession that began in March 2001 officially ended in November 2001, say the National Bureau of Economic Research and other analysts.

So why are so many workers still out of jobs?

“We’ve declared victory over the recession, and we’re still laying off a couple hundred thousand workers a month,” says Rep. Pete Stark (D-Calif.). “If it weren’t so painful for so many people who are out of work, it would be hilarious. But it isn’t.”

The U.S. economy has 3.2 million fewer jobs today than it did when President George W. Bush took office, including 2.5 million fewer manufacturing jobs. Bush appears headed for the dubious distinction of being the first president since Herbert Hoover to preside over a decline in total employment during his term in office.

In the past three years, nearly one in five U.S. workers was laid off from the job, according to The Disposable Worker: Living in a Job-Loss Economy, a Rutgers University¡V University of Connecticut report released in late July. Among workers laid off from full-time work, roughly one-fourth were earning less than $40,000 annually, the report finds.

In July, a total of 15 million U.S. workers were either unemployed, underemployed or too discouraged to job hunt, according to the Labor Department.

In contrast, within a year after the official end of the last recession in March 1991, the nation had embarked on six straight months of solid job growth.

This time, say economists, there are crucial differences: Companies are sending well-paying manufacturing and service jobs to countries with few, if any, protections for workers and the environment. And these jobs are probably not coming back.

“The movement of jobs and production overseas is handcuffing the recovery,” according to Mark Xandi, chief economist at Economy.com, as quoted in the New York Times.

“With NAFTA, the World Trade Organization and other trade deals of the last decade, American corporations are now tapping into a global supply of workers who can be trained to do everything from design to production, maintenance to marketing,” says Jeff Faux, economist and founding president of the Economic Policy Institute. “And while these workers become more productive, their pay doesn’t rise, because in many of these countries, to be a labor organizer means you risk winding up in a ditch with a bullet in your head.”

American jobs sent out of the country aren’t likely to return anytime soon. “As long as employers can take advantage of much lower labor costs in other countries, there’s no compelling reason to bring back many of these well-paying jobs,” says Ron Hira, an engineer and assistant professor of public policy at Rochester Institute of Technology. “Policymakers seem to be at a loss as to what to do about this problem.”

Meanwhile, the Bush administration directs multimillion-dollar tax cuts to the wealthy while supporting trade laws that encourage offshore outsourcing. And even as Bush opposes unemployment insurance extensions for some 1 million Americans who have exhausted their benefits, his administration refuses to embrace job-creating programs that would repair the nation’s infrastructure and help balance devastated state budgets.

“The Bush administration doesn’t seem to care about jobs,” says Center for Economic and Policy Research co-founder Dean Baker. “To retain and create jobs, there have to be policy changes, and I don’t think this administration is willing to make them.”

Manufacturing: America’s Foundation Is Crumbling

“American taxpayers...do not want their tax dollars subsidizing the export of their jobs.”
—USWA President Leo Gerard

Manufacturing jobs traditionally have provided high wages and good benefits that allow workers to care for their families. But 2.5 million manufacturing jobs have disappeared since President Bush took office in early 2001.

Multinational corporations are transferring jobs to countries where workers earn low wages and have few or no protections. And small U.S. businesses are laying off workers or shutting their doors because they can’t meet foreign competitors’ prices.

African American workers have been hit particularly hard. Because of manufacturing job losses, the unemployment rate among African Americans is rising twice as fast as it is for whites and faster than in any downturn since the mid-1970s. “The number of jobs and the types of jobs that have been lost has severely diminished the standing of many blacks in the middle class,” says William Lucy, president of the Coalition of Black Trade Unionists and AFSCME secretary-treasurer.

Manufacturing job loss starts the downward spiral

The loss of good manufacturing jobs has ripped apart communities and permanently lowered living standards for families throughout the United States, including in Rockford, Ill., 70 miles from Chicago. The northern Illinois city is historically second only to Cleveland as a center for machine tooling, the making of tools used in machine manufacturing.

Machine tooling, which traditionally employs the most highly skilled manufacturing workers including members of the Machinists and UAW, is the bedrock of America’s manufacturing industry.

But the bedrock is crumbling. The Rockford area lost more than 20 percent of its manufacturing jobs—about 10,000—between May 2000 and 2003, according to MBG Information Services President and Economist Charles McMillion’s analysis of Department of Labor data.
General manufacturing jobs have been among those lost in Rockford, including jobs held by Steelworkers Local 745 members at the Goodyear tire plant. USWA members at Goodyear now number 750, down from 1,650 in 1999, before the corporation shipped the jobs to Asia and South America.

But most manufacturing jobs lost in Rockford have been in machine tooling. At Greenlee/Textron, which makes drill bits and tools for electrical contractors, about 180 Machinists now represented by IAM Local 1553 are employed today, down from about 900 in the late 1980s. The 112-year-old crown jewel of Rockford machine tooling—Ingersoll International—declared bankruptcy this spring and laid off 300 employees in Rockford and 70 in Michigan, leaving only skeleton crews of managers and a few contract workers.

“The lesson of Rockford,” says Faux, “is it disproves the free traders’ argument that America could afford to lose manufacturing jobs in areas like textiles and steel because we would ultimately triumph in global competition by making the things hardest to make. In fact, those things are machine tools—and we’re losing them.”

A loss of manufacturing jobs reverberates throughout the community—and ultimately the nation. When manufacturing factories aren’t being built, maintained or expanded, jobs disappear in areas such as construction.

“Our union has about 30 percent unemployment,” says Mark Bramble, business agent for Electrical Workers Local 364 in Rockford. “Guys burn through their unemployment, lose all their benefits, get divorced and then go where the grass looks greener or settle for working as a greeter at Wal-Mart.”

A question of national security

There’s a sense of betrayal in Rockford these days. “Free trade was sold to America with the line that it helps us export more goods,” says Eric Anderberg, who manages his family’s 37-year-old machine tool company, Dial Machines Inc. “But what’s happened is the exportation of our jobs and means of production so multinational corporations can exploit foreign labor and sell their goods back to us.”

Today Dial employs 40 workers, down from 75 in the late 1990s. It recently lost work to a lower-bidding Czech Republic manufacturer that nabbed a contract making parts for a supplier of General Electric Wind Energy Corp.

Anderberg and other Rockford employers worry that a Chinese government-owned machine tooling company, which already has bought two divisions of Ingersoll International, may now be poised to buy another—one containing intellectual property, including high-level research and design and military technology. “I cannot understand how our government can justify not only the debasement of our manufacturing industries but also our national security in a time of war,” he says.

The Rockford community and U.S. national security would get a boost from Buy America provisions House Armed Services Committee Chair Rep. Duncan Hunter (R-Calif.) added to legislation authorizing the 2004 Pentagon budget.

Rep. Donald Manzullo (R-Ill.), who represents the Rockford area and helped write the bill, says, “The Pentagon wouldn’t care if everything it buys is made in China.” Joined by armsmakers such as Boeing and Lockheed Martin, the White House says the Buy America provisions are “burdensome, counterproductive and have the potential to degrade U.S. military capabilities.” But the administration does not mention jobs.

“American steelworkers are also American taxpayers, and they do not want their tax dollars subsidizing the export of their jobs,” says USWA President Leo Gerard.

White-Collar Jobs: America’s Growing Export

Ask anyone which sector of the U.S. economy comes to mind as the most likely to be shipped overseas, and chances are he or she will say manufacturing.

But though the United States lost 2.5 million manufacturing jobs since the Bush presidency beginning in 2001, U.S. corporations now are racing to outsource white-collar jobs—including work in computer sciences, engineering, entertainment, financial and medical services—to countries where workers earn far less.

Terry Antisdel was a Chicago-area engineering associate for Lucent Technologies Inc. and its predecessor AT&T for 35 years until his entire 42-member International Federation of Professional and Technical Engineers Local 81 was laid off in July. He figures his job will end up in India or China. “The words management used were a 'less-expensive offshore site,’ ” recalls Antisdel, who estimates Lucent will send a total of about 5,000 U.S. jobs offshore this year. “I feel let down,” he says. “Companies used to provide jobs for people, but now they’re just there to give money to executives, board members and shareholders.”

In late July, the Washington Alliance of Technology Workers (WashTech), a Communications Workers of America affiliated group that helps high-tech workers win a voice at work, released a tape of a conference call in which IBM’s top human relations executives discussed transferring 3 million U.S. service jobs to countries such as China and India by 2015.

Testifying in June before a House Committee on Small Business investigating the globalization of white-collar jobs, AFL-CIO Department for Professional Employees President Paul Almeida said, “If these cost-saving jobs shifts are taken to their logical extreme, even American corporations should be wondering where their future consumers will be located and how they will buy the goods and services.”

A Forrester Research study predicts U.S. employers will move about 3.3 million white-collar service jobs and $136 billion in wages overseas in the next 15 years, up from $4 billion in 2000.

White-collar jobs going and gone

The jobs already are leaving. By the end of this year, General Electric will have sent a total of 20,000 aircraft and medical research and design jobs to India and China, according to Business Week. And the Accenture consulting firm, which incorporated in Bermuda after splitting from Enron accountant Arthur Andersen, plans to send 5,000 accounting and software jobs to the Philippines in 2004, the magazine says.

According to WashTech, Microsoft plans to eliminate at least 800 full-time call-center jobs near Dallas and shift the work to India and Canada in the next fiscal year. It would be the largest one-time firing of full-time Microsoft employees in the company’s history. WashTech says a Microsoft senior vice president recently urged company managers to “pick something to move offshore today,” though Microsoft publicly has repeated it will not lay off U.S. workers and send the jobs offshore.

While the Bush administration remains silent about offshore outsourcing, states such as New Jersey are considering corrective measures. New Jersey legislators acted after the state outsourced the electronic administration of welfare and food stamp benefits to a company that then sent the jobs to India. When New Jersey citizens called to ask about benefits, they were connected with Indian workers who gave Americanized names.

A bill authored by state Assembly member Linda Greenstein (D) would have required such offshore subcontractors to disclose to New Jersey residents their employers’ true names and locations. But even this common- sense measure had no chance in the face
of massive opposition launched by Indian and American corporate interests, such as Verizon.

“We got a copy of an e-mail Verizon sent managers in New Jersey, thanking them for sending 1,800 e-mails opposing the bill,” says Don Rice, CWA’s New Jersey legislative coordinator. Activists and legislators hope to bring the bill to a vote before the legislative session ends this year.

U.S. security at stake

Offshore outsourcing of white-collar work also raises security concerns. U.S. firms are sending mapping and other such work to India, Pakistan, China, the Philippines and other countries with lower labor costs, says John Palatiello, administrator of the Council on Federal Procurement of Architectural and Engineering Services.

“This practice raises issues regarding access to data about the location of¡Kcritical infrastructure by individuals in foreign countries who have not been through any degree of security clearance and where control of access to data simply does not exist.”

Bush’s January 2002 State of the Union address made clear the danger of access to data by unfriendly foreign operatives: “Our discoveries in Afghanistan confirmed our worst fears....We have found diagrams of American nuclear power plants and public water facilities¡Ksurveillance maps of American cities and thorough descriptions of landmarks in America.”

Activists are demanding Congress review trade and tax policies that encourage white-collar offshore outsourcing. Without government intervention, warns Almeida, “short-sighted corporate policy focused on saving a few bucks in the short run will have an enormous deleterious impact on the entire U.S. economy.”

Low-Wage Jobs: Betray America’s Workers

Photo Credit: Ernie Englander/The New Press

Laid-off U.S. workers thrust into a hostile job market are discovering another ugly part of the American economy: low-wage work that pays too little to keep even a small family out of poverty.

Nearly a quarter of all U.S. workers labor in jobs that pay little but are essential to society. Sixty percent of these workers are female, and many are people of color. They care for nursing home patients and clean offices at night. They prepare food, answer call-center phones and care for our children.

These jobs generally pay less than the $8.85 hourly wage the U.S. government says it takes to keep a family of four out of poverty. Even so, many low-wage jobs offer only part-time hours, with few or no benefits. And workers in low-paying but essential jobs often are treated as disposable, quickly fired if they get sick or stay home with a sick child.

As more good jobs leave the country, the percentage of low-wage jobs keeps growing. By 2010, about 30 percent of working Americans won’t be making even poverty wages, according to the U.S. Department of Labor. A Labor Department list of the 10 occupations likely to show the largest job growth this decade is dominated by jobs that typically pay poorly—food preparation, customer service, office clerking, security and food service.

This world of low-wage jobs and the workers who do them is illuminated in The Betrayal of Work: How Low-Wage Jobs Fail 35 Million Americans, published on Labor Day by the New Press. “Traditionally, there was a promise in this country that if you worked hard, you could take care of your family,” explains author Beth Shulman, an attorney and former United Food and Commercial Workers vice president. “That promise has been broken¡Kand we have built our national prosperity on their backs.”

No job is inherently low wage

Workers in low-wage jobs frequently are labeled as lacking skills and in need of training to move into better-paying positions. But while education is a traditional route to higher pay, Shulman contends no job is inherently low wage.
“Take autoworkers, who had horrible jobs that became good ones because of unions and social legislation,” she says. “The same thing must happen with currently low-paying service- sector jobs. In Las Vegas, for example, the housekeeper represented by the Hotel Employees Restaurant Employees has decent wages and benefits thanks to unionization.”

Low-wage jobs tend to imprison the workers who perform them because of what Shulman calls a “piling on” of hardships. Workers in low-wage jobs are unlikely to have sick leave or health insurance or make enough money to afford reliable transportation or child day care. At the same time, they are likely to be in inflexible situations in which being late or missing work can result in a quick firing.

“It’s not just that you make less money in these jobs, but you have none of the basic things many of us take for granted, such as health insurance, time to care for a family member, adequate child care, some kind of retirement security, even a telephone,” Shulman says. “And this applies to one in four U.S. workers.”

Gap is growing between U.S. rich and poor

As low-wage work continues to replace jobs that pay well, the U.S. economy increasingly resembles that of a less-developed nation, with a wide gulf between rich and poor. Among all western industrialized nations, the United States has the greatest income and wage inequalities, with the best-paid 10 percent of workers making 16.6 times the amount made by the lowest-paid 10 percent, according to a 2003 analysis by the United Nations Development Program. “That’s the way we’ve been moving for some time now and continue to move,” says Heather Boushey, a Center for Economic and Policy Research economist.

To reverse this trend, the United States needs to change the rules of the game, according to Shulman. “For starters, we should immediately raise the minimum hourly wage to the poverty guideline for a family of four—$8.85 an hour versus the current $5.15 hourly federal minimum wage—and then have automatic increases so there’s not a big political battle every time it needs raising. Then, all Americans should have access to affordable health care. There are a variety of ways to do this, and we should just get it done.

“Finally, all American workers should be able to care for their children—to have access to affordable child care, and to stay with them when they’re sick or go to a PTA meeting without getting fired. The consequences for the children of today’s low-wage workers are enormous—they’re following their parents into this low-wage world.”


Companies in India celebrate
"loss of American jobs"
Mike Crane
December 2004
Reprinted from: Southern Party of Georgia website

In our previous article we reported how various companies in India were employed by the Republican National Committee and the Bush Re-election campaign (see: India claims big election victory and laughs at Americans).

One interesting comment that was documented in that article was:

As Vivek Paul, Wipro VC, said after the Presidential poll, “The elections are over and so is the rhetoric; it will be easier for American corporations to step out with their outsourcing plans.”

Well a little research has found some estimates from within India about what that meant. First and foremost, it means that India is celebrating the "loss of American jobs." Folks, that is the jobs of friends, family or perhaps even your own.

Specifically on November 4, with time zone changes, roughly a day after the polls close the following was published in the India Times:

The industry is quietly celebrating that outsourcing and loss of American jobs will not be the hot-button issues any more.

And that is why they believe that "it will be easier for American corporations to step out with their outsourcing plans." Does this mean that American companies put their plans on "hold" to minimize the impact on a close election?

But the folks in India gloat a little more:

Of the documented jobs that left the US for other countries in January through March 2004, 23,396 went to Mexico, 8,283 to China, 3,895 to India, 4,419 to other Asian countries, 5,511 to Latin American countries other than Mexico and 2,933 to other countries.

A brief look at these numbers show what they call a documented American job loss of 48,237 for the first quarter of 2004. On an annual basis this would be 192,968 American jobs. And they expect American companies to now - step out - with their outsourcing plans.

Some will say that 192,968 jobs is not very many. But as you will see in coming articles that is just what is called BPO and is not the whole picture.

Lets look at the effect of three policies that affect American jobs:

  1. Outsourcing - In this article it has been shown that it is at least close to 200,00 jobs a year for the BPO segment and expected to increase
  2. H1-B visa program - allows high tech foreigners to take American jobs here without being counted in immigration totals. Used by many companies to train personnel for their foreign outsourcing programs. There are roughly a million H1-B visas active today.
  3. Legal immigration of about 1 million a year and illegal immigration of about 3 million a year resulting in lower American wages and increased social costs.

Ladies and gentlemen, you are paying the salaries of the elected and appointed officials who are doing this to you. Is this what you want to pay for? If so, why are you reading material on this web site?

If not, you are being ignored!

It should be obvious to all that this trend can not continue forever. Are there any signs that it is getting better:

A recent study of A T Kearney shows that nine out of 10 chief executives wanted to outsource to India. 25 % of the respondents wanted IT and auto component work to be given to India, 15 % favoured China and 13 % Mexico.

That should answer that question beyond a reasonable doubt. Interesting that 15% of the outsourcing chief executives favor Red China! Remember these are the folks that make the big campaign contributions that have so much influence on many of your elected officials. How will you feel when YOUR job is sent to Red China?

If you do not agree with these policies you are being ignored and your elected officials are representing special interests more than you! If you believe that this is a serious problem it is time to get involved now. The longer you wait, the harder it will be stop these destructive trends.

The BPO and your elected officials are doing offshore calculus, are you?

BPO biggies do offshore calculus
TIMES NEWS NETWORK [ THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 04, 2004 02:13:09 PM]

India’s silicon valley is delighted to move out of the limelight. The industry is quietly celebrating that outsourcing and loss of American jobs will not be the hot-button issues any more.

BPO bigwigs are already computing the gains from mega-offshoring plans on hold waiting for US presidential race to be over.

Though most of the industry majors refuse to comment on who will safeguard their interests better, they feel that economic benefits of transfer of jobs to low cost destinations will now overshadow the political rhetoric against outsourcing in the run up to the US poll.

The US presidential election was fueling the protests against job losses due to transfer of jobs.

“American law will remain the same and the outsourcing will go up irrespective of who wins. Already, we see our clients getting ready for bigger offshoring plans,’’ says head of a leading Delhi-based BPO firm. Insiders also feel the American clients might be more open to talk about their outsourcing plans to low-cost destinations like India now.

Though Kerry’s tax proposals that seek to end tax breaks for companies that ship jobs overseas could deter fence-sitter, analysts feel they are no more than short-term sentiment dampeners. After initially branding the shipping of jobs to countries like India and China as a threat to the US economy, Kerry has gone on record saying he can’t stop outsourcing.

Clearly, what is of greater concern is that a clear decision comes soon, irrespective of whether it favours Bush or Kerry. Though Bush is more popular, the $ 2.6 billion BPO industry is convinced that “it will soon be difficult to differentiate between Democrats and Republicans.

Obviously sector’s fate is closely tied up with the US elections, with US accounting for over 70 % of India’s IT exports. A recent study of A T Kearney shows that nine out of 10 chief executives wanted to outsource to India. 25 % of the respondents wanted IT and auto component work to be given to India, 15 % favoured China and 13 % Mexico.

Of the documented jobs that left the US for other countries in January through March 2004, 23,396 went to Mexico, 8,283 to China, 3,895 to India, 4,419 to other Asian countries, 5,511 to Latin American countries other than Mexico and 2,933 to other countries.

 


Costly Trade With China
Millions of U.S. jobs displaced
Robert E. Scott
October 9, 2007
Reprinted from: Economic Policy Institute

Contrary to the predictions of its supporters, China's entry into the World Trade Organization (WTO) has failed to reduce its trade surplus with the United States or increase overall U.S. employment. The rise in the U.S. trade deficit with China between 1997 and 2006 has displaced production that could have supported 2,166,000 U.S. jobs. Most of these jobs (1.8 million) have been lost since China entered the WTO in 2001. Between 1997 and 2001, growing trade deficits displaced an average of 101,000 jobs per year, or slightly more than the total employment in Manchester, New Hampshire. Since China entered the WTO in 2001, job losses increased to an average of 353,000 per year—more than the total employment in greater Akron, Ohio. Between 2001 and 2006, jobs were displaced in every state and the District of Columbia. Nearly three-quarters of the jobs displaced were in manufacturing industries. Simply put, the promised benefits of trade liberalization with China have been unfulfilled.

As a matter of policy, China tightly pegs its currency's value to that of the dollar at a rate that encourages a large bilateral surplus with the United States. Maintaining this peg required the purchase of about $200 billion in U.S. Treasury Bills and other securities in 2006 alone.1 This intervention makes the yuan artificially cheap and provides an effective subsidy on Chinese exports; best estimates are that the rate of this effective subsidy is roughly 40%. China also engages in extensive suppression of labor rights; it has been estimated that wages in China would be 47% to 85% higher in the absence of labor repression. China has also been accused of massive direct subsidization of export production. Finally, it maintains strict, non-tariff barriers to imports. As a result, China's exports to the United States of $288 billion in 2006 were six times greater than U.S. exports to China, which were only $52 billion (Table 1). China's trade surplus was responsible for 42.6% of the United States' total, non-oil trade deficit. This is by far the United States' most imbalanced trading relationship. Unless and until China revalues (raises) the yuan and eliminates these other trade distortions, the U.S. trade deficit and job losses will continue to grow rapidly in the future.

Major findings of this study:

  • The 1.8 million jobs opportunities lost nationwide since 2001 are distributed among all 50 states and the District of Columbia, with the biggest losers, in numeric terms: California (-269,300), Texas (-136,900), New York (-105,900), Illinois (-79,900), Pennsylvania (-78,200), North Carolina (-77,200), Florida (-71,900), Ohio (-66,100), Georgia (-60,400), and Massachusetts (-59,300) (Table 2A).

  • The 10 hardest-hit states, as a share of total state employment, are: New Hampshire (-13,000, -2.1%), North Carolina (-77,200, -2.0%), California (-269,300, -1.8%), Massachusetts (-59,300, -1.8%), Rhode Island (-8,400, -1.8%), South Carolina (-29,200, -1.6%), Vermont (-4,900, -1.6%), Oregon (-25,700, -1.6%), Indiana (-45,200, -1.5%), and Georgia (-60,400, -1.5%) (Table 2B).

China's entry into the WTO was supposed to bring it into compliance with an enforceable, rules-based regime, which would require that it open its markets to imports from the United States and other nations. The United States also negotiated a series of special safeguard measures designed to limit the disruptive effects of surging Chinese imports on domestic producers. However, the core of the agreement failed to include any protections to maintain or improve labor or environmental standards. As a result, China's entry into the WTO has further tilted the international economic playing field against domestic workers and firms, and in favor of multinational companies (MNCs) from the United States and other countries, and state- and privately-owned exporters in China. This has increased the global "race to the bottom" in wages and environmental quality and caused the closing of thousands of U.S. factories, decimating employment in a wide range of communities, states, and entire regions of the United States.

False promises

Proponents of China's entry into the WTO frequently claimed that it would create jobs in the United States, increase U.S. exports, and improve the trade deficit with China. President Clinton claimed that the agreement allowing China into the WTO, which was negotiated during his administration, "creates a win-win result for both countries" (Clinton 2000, 9). He argued that exports to China "now support hundreds of thousands of American jobs" and that "these figures can grow substantially with the new access to the Chinese market the WTO agreement creates" (Clinton 2000, 10). Others in the White House, such as Kenneth Liberthal, the special advisor to the president and senior director for Asia affairs at the National Security Council, echoed Clinton's assessment:

Let's be clear as to why a trade deficit might decrease in the short term. China exports far more to the U.S. than it imports [from] the U.S….It will not grow as much as it would have grown without this agreement and over time clearly it will shrink with this agreement.2

Promises about jobs and exports misrepresented the real effects of trade on the U.S. economy: trade both creates and destroys jobs. Increases in U.S. exports tend to create jobs in the United States, but increases in imports tend to destroy jobs as imports displace goods that otherwise would have been made in the United States by domestic workers.

The impact of changes in trade on employment is estimated here by calculating the labor content of changes in the trade balance—the difference between exports and imports. Each $1 billion in computer exports to China from the United States supports American jobs. However, each $1 billion in computer imports from China displaces those American workers, who would have been employed making them in the United States. On balance, the net employment effect of trade flows depends on the growth in the trade deficit; not just exports. Another critically important promise made by the promoters of liberalized U.S.-China trade was that the United States would benefit because of increased exports to a large and growing consumer market in China. This market, in turn, was to be based on an expansion of the middle class that, it was claimed, would grow rapidly due to the wealth created in China by its entry into the WTO. However, the increase in U.S. exports to China has been overwhelmed by the growth of U.S. imports, as shown below.

Growing trade deficits and job losses

The U.S. trade deficit with China has increased from $50 billion in 1997 to $235 billion in 2006, an increase of $185 billion, as shown in Table 1. Between 1997 and 2001, prior to China's entry into the WTO, the deficit increased $9 billion per year on average. Between 2001 and 2006, after China entered the WTO, the deficit increased $30 billion per year on average.

While it is true that exports support jobs in the United States, it is equally true that imports displace them. The net effect of trade flows on employment must look at the trade balance. The employment impacts of growing trade deficits are estimated in this paper using an input-output model that estimates the direct and indirect labor requirements of producing output in a given domestic industry. The model includes 200 U.S. industries, 86 of which are in the manufacturing sector (see this paper's methodology appendix for further details).3

The model estimates the labor that would be required to produce a given volume of exports, and the labor that is displaced when a given volume of imports is substituted for domestic output.4 The job losses presented here represent an estimate of what sectoral employment levels would have been in the absence of growing trade deficits.5

U.S. exports to China in 1997 supported 138,000 jobs, but U.S. imports displaced production that would have supported 736,000 jobs, as shown in the bottom half of Table 1. Therefore, the $49 billion trade deficit in 1997 displaced 736,300 jobs in that year. Job displacement rose to 1,000,000 jobs in 2001 and 2,763,000 in 2006. Prior to China's entry into the WTO, an average of 101,000 jobs per year were displaced by growing trade deficits between 1997 and 2001. After 2001, an average of 353,000 jobs per year were lost.

Growth in trade deficits with China has reduced demand for goods produced in every region of the United States and has led to job displacement in all 50 states and the District of Columbia, as shown in Table 2A and Figure A.6 More than 100,000 jobs were lost in California, Texas, and New York each. Jobs displaced due to growing deficits with China equaled or exceeded 2.0% of total employment in states such as North Carolina and New Hampshire, as shown in Table 2B. An alphabetical list of job losses by state is shown in Table 2C.

Figure A

Table 2c

Growing trade deficits with China have clearly reduced domestic employment in traded goods industries, especially in the manufacturing sector, which has been hard hit by plant closings and job losses. Workers displaced by trade from the manufacturing sector have been shown to have particular difficulty in securing comparable employment elsewhere in the economy. More than one-third of workers displaced from manufacturing drop out of the labor force (Kletzer 2001, 101, Table D2). Average wages of those who secured re-employment fell 11% to 13%. Trade-related job displacement pushes many workers out of good jobs in manufacturing and other trade-related industries, often into lower-paying industries and frequently out of the labor market.

Some economists have quibbled with job-loss numbers extrapolated from trade flows, based on the presumption that aggregate employment levels in the United States are set by a broad range of macroeconomic influences, not just by trade flows. There is a grain of truth to this—the trade balance is but one of many variables affecting aggregate job creation in the United States.

That said, the employment impacts of trade identified in this paper can be interpreted as the "all else equal" effect of trade on domestic employment. The Federal Reserve, for example, may decide to cut interest rates to make up for job loss stemming from deteriorating trade balances (or any other economic influence), leaving net employment unchanged. This, however, does not change the fact that trade deficits by themselves are a net drain on employment.

Administration officials and other economists have argued that the capital inflow that is the mirror-image of trade deficits supports jobs in the United States by keeping interest rates lower than they would be absent this inflow. During the late 1990s, for example, these capital inflows fought rising trade deficits to a draw in terms of aggregate employment effects, and, through much of the 2000s recovery, interest-sensitive industries (housing and construction, for example) have surely expanded more than they would have absent foreign capital inflows. While these claims may be correct from a simple accounting standpoint, they do not support assertions that trade flows are a useless indicator of job loss.

First, and most simply, it is just not true that foreign capital inflows always make up trade-induced employment losses one-for-one. In the 2001 recession and the jobless recovery following, growing trade deficits accompanied aggregate job loss, even as interest rates scraped historical bottoms. Clearly, low interest rates do not always translate into enough growth in investment and consumption in interest-sensitive sectors to always sterilize the impact of growing trade deficits.

Second, the job-loss numbers identified in this report are a good measure of just how unbalanced the U.S. economy has become due to rising trade deficits. Tradable goods industries have hemorrhaged jobs, while interest-sensitive, often non-tradable, industries have seen rapid growth. At that point in the future when trade deficits begin to close (and this will happen—it is only a question of when and how), the U.S. economy will need to return many of the jobs displaced by rising trade deficits out of non-tradable and into tradable industries. Moving millions of workers back and forth between sectors is no mean trick, and accomplishing it without a recession in between will be hard; trying to do it after another couple of years of deficit growth—and an even more lopsided U.S. economy—will be even harder.

In short, while aggregate employment in the United States may well not respond job-for-job with the numbers reported in this paper on trade deficits with China, these numbers provide insight into how much harder other macroeconomic influences have to work to eliminate the employment drag from these deficits, and they provide a good (and ominous) measure of how lopsided employment growth in the U.S. economy has become owing to the unbalanced U.S.-China trade relationship.

Conclusion

The growing U.S. trade deficit with China has displaced huge numbers of jobs in the United States, and been a prime contributor to the crisis in manufacturing employment over the past six years. The current U.S.-China trade relationship is bad for both countries. The United States is piling up foreign debt, losing export capacity, and facing a more fragile macroeconomic environment. Meanwhile, China has become dependent on the U.S. consumer market for employment generation, has suppressed the purchasing power of its own middle class with a weak currency, and, most importantly, has held hundreds of billions of hard-currency reserves in low-yielding, risky assets, instead of investing them in public goods that could benefit Chinese households. Its repression of labor rights has suppressed wages, thus subsidizing its exports and making them artificially cheap. This relationship needs a fundamental change: addressing the exchange rate policies and labor standards issues in the Chinese economy are important first steps.

Methodology

This analysis utilizes an input-output model to estimate the relationships between changes in trade flows and production that could support domestic employment. The analysis covers trends in goods trade, which is dominated by manufactures. Services trade is not considered because of problems with the data, and because many of the services traded involve returns to capital and intellectual property that have little or no direct effect on employment. In addition, goods trade dominates the nation's international accounts.

This study uses the model developed in Rothstein and Scott (1997a and 1997b). This approach solves four problems that are prevalent in previous research on the employment effects of trade. Some studies look only at the effects of exports and ignore imports. Some studies include re-exports (transshipments)—goods produced outside the United States and shipped through this country to other nations—as U.S. exports. The trade data used in many studies is usually not adjusted for inflation. Finally, a single employment multiplier is often applied to all industries, despite differences in labor productivity and utilization.7

The model used here is based on the Bureau of Labor Statistics' employment requirements tables, which were derived from the U.S. input-output tables that are published by the Bureau of Economic Analysis. These tables are adjusted to 2000 price and productivity levels (BLS 2007b), in real, chain-weighted 2000 dollars. A base year with 2000 employment requirements was used to estimate the employment content of trade in all years covered in this study. This assumption was needed to control for the effects of technology. This technique isolates the effects of trade on employment from pure technology effects. This model is used to estimate the direct and indirect effects of changes in goods trade flows in each of 200 industries. This study updates the 1987 input employment requirements table used in earlier reports in this series (Rothstein and Scott 1997a, 1997b).

This analysis requires four-digit, trade data based on the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) (U.S. International Trade Commission 2007), deflated with industry-specific, chain-weighted price indices (BLS 2007a), which were updated using industry-specific producer price indexes (BLS 2007b).8 Trade data were downloaded from the U.S. International Trade Commission (2007) Web site in NAICS format. The data for 2006 are preliminary estimates; this report will be updated and expanded when the final 2006 trade data are released in June 2007. State-level employment effects are calculated by allocating imports and exports to the states on the basis of their share of four-digit, industry-level employment for 2000 (U.S. Census Bureau 2001).

The trade data were converted into chain-weighted 2000 dollars. A domestic employment requirements table for a particular base year was used to estimate the employment effects of trade in each year of the analysis, holding technology constant. The domestic employment requirement calculates the labor required to produce all of a given product within the United States. Thus, it reflects the complete labor content of output, including jobs indirectly supported in service industries. The base year of 2000 was chosen for this study because it was an approximate mid-point in the data covered in this study.

CPS data on employment by industry by was collected for each of the detailed sectors in the model. These data were used to calculate each state's share of national employment.

But for these purchases, the reduced demand would have put significant downward pressure on the U.S. dollar. A substantial depreciation in the dollar would begin to improve the U.S. trade deficit within a few years.

3. See Ratner (2006) for a more complete, technical description of this model.

4. For the purposes of this report, it is necessary to distinguish between exports produced domestically and re-exports—which are goods produced in other countries, imported into the United States, and then re-exported to other countries, in this case to China. Since re-exports are not produced domestically, their production does not support domestic employment and they are excluded from the model used here. See Table 1 for information about the levels of U.S. re-exports to China in this period.

5. This model assumes that everything else is held constant and the results are counterfactual estimates.

6. See the methodology appendix for computational details.

7. Other studies—see California State World Trade Commission (1996), which finds 47,600 jobs created in California from increased trade with Canada alone—have allocated all employment effects to the home state of the exporting company. This is problematic, because the production—along with any attendant job effects—need not have taken place in the exporter's state. If a California dealer buys cars from Chrysler and sells them to China, these studies will find job creation in California. However, the cars are not made in California; so the employment effects should instead be attributed to Michigan and other state with high levels of auto industry production. Likewise, if the same firm buys auto parts from China, the loss of employment will occur in auto-industry states, not in California.

8. Industry-specific producer price indices are unavailable for certain industries between 2005 and 2006. In order to construct price deflators for all 200 BLS industries, we used a combination of commodity PPIs and industry PPIs. For instance, NAICS-based industry 3331 (which maps to BLS industry 72) is composed of agricultural, manufacturing, and mining machinery manufacturing. To compute a price index for this industry, a trade-weighted average of the commodity indices for agricultural machinery and construction machinery was used as a proxy for the industry PPI. Industry PPIs were used wherever available.


Outsourcing Not the Culprit in Manufacturing Job Loss
Wes Iversen
December 9th, 2003
Reprinted from:Automation World
Productivity gains spawned by factory automation are driving a worldwide decline in manufacturing jobs, even in developing nations, says researcher.

For many Americans, the word “outsourcing” conjures up images of manufacturing job decline. But the United States is far from alone in losing manufacturing employment, points out Dan Miklovic (shown above), vice president and research director at GartnerG2, the business research arm of Stamford, Conn.-based Gartner Inc. “Recent studies show that manufacturing jobs are declining everywhere,” said Miklovic, during a Nov. 17 panel discussion on outsourcing, part of a Global Media Summit sponsored by Rockwell Automation, Milwaukee.

Over the past decade, U.S. manufacturing jobs have declined by more than 11 percent, Miklovic noted. But at the same time, Japan’s manufacturing employment base has dropped by 16 percent, while the number of manufacturing jobs in countries including Brazil have declined by some 20 percent, he pointed out. “And one of the largest losers of manufacturing jobs has been China,” Miklovic added. “We like to pick on China and say that all of these jobs are going to China, but they’re losing jobs in manufacturing as well.”

The reason for the job losses? Miklovic summed it up in one word: automation. Through automation, he said, “we are really doing a good job of improving the productivity of people.”

Miklovic reminded media attendees at the panel session that 25 percent to 30 percent of the U.S. population was at one time involved in agricultural jobs. But today, only 3 percent of Americans work in agriculture, yet they have turned the United States into a net agricultural exporter, he noted. “The same thing is now happening in manufacturing,” Miklovic said. “Through automation, through improved productivity, we’re driving the number of jobs down on a global basis.”

Job loss in India

Confirmation came from another panel participant, K. Muralidharan, senior general manager for Sundram Fasteners Ltd., a major Indian automotive parts manufacturer. In India, he said, growing use of automation is holding down manufacturing job growth despite the large amount of outsourcing work that is flowing to the country. “I find that outsourcing in India has actually cost jobs in Indian industry, though in the long term, it will probably have a positive effect on employment,” Muralidharan said.

Manufacturing employment remains at about the same level in India today as it was during the recession of the late 1990s, according to Muralidharan. “The Indian economy is booming now, and it is predicted that in the next five years, the curve will only be upward. But still, the jobs and employment are not really growing at the same pace,” said Muralidharan. “The economies of scale that have been created due to outsourcing from developed countries have forced Indian industry to take on automation heavily, which was not the case about 10 years back,” he said.

GartnerG2’s Miklovic noted that the use of automation contributes to a cyclical situation in many industries. When a U.S. manufacturer develops a new product, for example, the company has first-mover advantage for a time. But in the next phase, when other manufacturers enter the market, competition often shifts to price. In response, some U.S. producers may move manufacturing offshore to developing nations, to take advantage of lower labor costs. However, said Miklovic, they frequently find that the level of automation and technology available in developing nations is less than that of the United States.

This means that U.S. manufacturers who then invest in sophisticated automation technology at home can gain the upper hand for a time over lower-priced imports, thanks to the higher quality product allowed by the automation, said Miklovic. But the automation technology used in the developing nations eventually catches up, giving products produced there the advantage, he added.

“We see this in semiconductors all the time,” Miklovic said. “Semiconductors typically have been produced in Japan and Taiwan. But now there is a booming semiconductor market that’s starting in China.” While the density and sophistication of semiconductor chips produced in China cannot yet match that of Japan and Taiwan, said Miklovic, China’s technology is moving in that direction.

“Automation only works for a period of time,” said Miklovic. The lesson for manufacturers is that they must continually reinvest in automation and innovation, he said. “If you stand still, ultimately you lose.”


Inetekk a USA company

Corporate Site: Inetekk.com, Inc.
Inetekk was built in America by Americans!

All programming done by Americans
Sure it cost us more to build the Inetekk technology by ourselves and outsourcing to US programmers and US software developers. The prospect of sending our work abroad was never a consideration. Primarily doing so we lose the security of proprietary development to another country were we have little if any legal control regardless of how cheap that option could be. Then quality and communications is another factor, but we are also sensitive to doing business within our culture because of the process of getting what we are looking for and having the ability to have laws in effect that protect our interest in getting just what we are paying for.

Customer support by Americans
We are constantly getting offers to do our work at deep discounts by these foreign nationals, primarily India, but we are not cheap price motivated. Even our support service is run by Americans in America. We may ad to our support from Australia, but that is because they can offer the needed time frame for that region, not a cost consideration, so we can offer 24/7 seamless support for our clientele. Plus we have many Australian and New Zealander subscribers using our services and we love their accents.

Collocation in San Jose, CA USA
When we first started building the Inetekk systems, we went from a shared server in Florida to needing our own servers. We could have co located our servers in a foreign company for 1/3rd the cost but we realized by doing so our proprietary technology and secured databases would be at risk. Not a good idea. So we contracted with a well know company in San Jose. This was expensive but a very good decision. As the Internet has grown, the necessity to keep your data well secured is of the utmost importance and again, keeping this service local has proved to be a very good decision.

Servers built in USA
As we started building our server farm, again quality and service were the key issue. We went to a local shop in San Diego and hired them to build them. The first server, unaware to us, was built from foreign parts and within weeks the server started having failure issues. From then on we have demanded that all parts be US made as best we could and we have never had issues since. Our farm now runs with US made servers like NetAps, Intel, etc.

IT services by Americans
As with any server farm and web systems, having good IT professional's is imperative, and again, we hired US IT database engineers and server engineers. Same reason as our security is key and far more important than cost. For example, to use foreign IT services cost around $10 per hour. US costs are around $150 per hour. In my humble opinion, you get what you pay for.

The bottom line is future forecasting. I subscribe to the belief that our customers deserve the very best. Not only in the quality of the service, or the best customer support, but also security and the dedication to keep Inetekk around for the long run delivering the very best.

It seems the the big corporations in the US have lost sight to this fact and are all heading for serious issues as they continue down this road to losing control of their companies to the quest for seeking the lowest prices regardless. Take the Mattel toy company for example. Not long ago all their toys were US built. Today, they have lost major market share because the toys the sell now coming from Red China are toxic and low quality. It is scandalous that our children are getting toys painted with lead paint.

The future is at risk.

Your job is secure if you are your boss
Bill Repp
October 14, 2007
Reprinted from: commercialappeal.com

Q: I've been out of work for nearly five months, and the prospect of getting a job in my field (mechanical engineering) doesn't look good -- unless I want to move my family across the country. I've always wanted to have my own business, but I'm worried about the comparative lack of job security that goes with it. What's your opinion? I'm over 50 and in good health. -- Deidre N.

A: You have a lot going for you: you've always wanted to have your own business, you're over 50, and you have good health. Security? You don't have it now, and you didn't have it when you got laid off. I don't think there's anything more secure today than working for yourself. Companies will cut any costs they have to just to stay in business, and the popular trend for the past several years has been to cut staff -- fast. And consider this: when you work for someone else -- big company or small -- only a few people -- your boss and one or two more managers -- control your future security. But with your own business, if you lose a few customers, you still have others to back you up. I've always thought that having my own business gives me more security, not less, than I'd have if I worked for someone else.

Another stunning fact of life: at 50, you're more likely to be more successful at hiring yourself than trying to convince someone else to do it. Fortune magazine once ran a cover story: "Finished at Forty," detailing the corporate trend of hiring younger people. As one CEO put it: "Why should I hang on to someone who's over 50? He's tired of the long hours and wants to spend more time with his family. He probably hasn't kept up with the newest technology. I have to pay him $75,000 a year or more, and he argues with me. I can hire someone in his 30's and pay him $35 to $40,000. He'll work 60 to 70 hours a week without complaining, and he won't argue with me. This is a no-brainer."

What Do YOU Want?

My best advice: do what feels right for YOU. When you're motivated and committed to a career you really like, the money and security usually take care of themselves. There's a big difference in putting in 50-60 hours a week into a job you love, and one you just feel so-so about. If you don't look forward to going to work when you get up in the morning, you're in the wrong job. Life is too short to work at a job you don't like.

Think carefully about how you want to spend one-third to half of the rest of your life (your waking hours). It you really think it's time to have your own business, then write your answers to these questions. They'll also form the foundation for a good business plan -- an absolute must if you want to succeed.

How would you describe your business (name, location, product/service?)

How would you describe your total target market -- the customers who will be willing to pay you for your products/services?

What industry, local, or consumer trends or needs will you react to?

How would you analyze, and then describe your competition (how many; current prices; their strengths/weaknesses)?

What are your marketing and business goals?

What are your first-year growth problems -- and how will you solve them?

What finances will you need to start the business and keep it going until it can stand on its own? How will you get them?

What's your operating plan for the next five years? (At least half of the new businesses started each year fail within the first 12 months. You must plan for a long-term business.)

What's your management plan to control and develop your basic operation/service?

What equipment, inventory, labor, space, overhead do you need?

Talk to Your Banker

Once your business plan is ready, prepare your personal financial statement (all your assets and liabilities). Next. prepare a projected balance sheet and profit and loss statement for your business -- at least for the first year. Then it's time to meet with your banker.

A good banker can advise you on the likelihood of your succeeding in getting a loan. He or she can point you in the right direction to get additional information. An excellent source for learning about starting your own business is on-line: Search for "sba.gov" and you'll discover a site that has all you need to know to write your business plan and finance your business. You'll even have models of nearly 100 business plans to study and benefit from. The rest is up to you -- and your energy and commitment.

Today I got #20 out of 438 million for submit or post on Google, #1 for submit or post classifieds out of 56.7 million and for submit or post classified I got #'s 1,2,5,21,26,27,39,41,45, and 46. I get good results also for submit or post classified ads, submit or post classified ads free, and submit or post classified ads free, online.

For the keywords free premium email leads I have the first 5 returns and the 10 return on page 1 of Google. I am anxious to see what this will start doing for me. This really is working!

Lonny Heiner


I am amazed at finding my website at the top of the list in Google. Try keywords "premium leads verified" to find my press release and my PremiumLeads.biz website. I also use the Veretekk SEO training to get my wife's website at the top for the key words "art and fine craft front range". Her website is Rosahnda.ws I thnk Veretekk is the best in teaching SEO and I do not find anyone else doing it. Other website builders give me the feeling that it is "optional" and they do not tell you where to get the training. Score a big one for Veretekk!

Veretekk Internet Marketing At Its Best

Today I had a pleasant surprised whilst researching for an article on the importance of personal branding to improve SEO results. I discovered that as a result in putting into practise what is preached by the trainers in Veretekk and by use of the Veretekk Search Engine Marketing Portals it is possible to get prominent positions in Google.

I was a Silver Veretekk member for two years before I discovered the power that lies within the Veretekk Marketing System. It is not an easy system to understand but with the expert help of trainers such as Butch Hamilton and Leo Silvestri, I began a journey which is leading me on the road to my goals.

My business is growing with out having to send out emails, surf for hours, join traffic exchanges and safe lists. My sites are taking on a life of their own and people are contacting me, and as this success is growing, I am able to pass on what I am learning to others and it is most rewarding.

I still have much to learn in this ever changing Internet world but can honestly say there is nothing to match the Veretekk Marketing System
