As Promised - Here is a Link to Your Free Auto-Responder
An Auto-Responder is very powerful tool. In fact, it is the single most important tool that an Internet Marketer can have. It provides the Internet Marketer "the" method to grow and cultivate their business LIST (customers/buyers), provide value and assistance to their customers, and keep their customers informed of changes that may impact them. In other words, it provides the opportunity to create a positive relationship with their List of customers. This is thoroughly consistent with our philosophy of Relationship Marketing vs. Intrusive Marketing as earlier defined. Furthermore, once a positive relationship is established, this presents the opportunity to recommend other Products/Programs.
Intrusive marketing takes many forms, but the very clearest and most intrusive is SPAM; or, all those junk e-mails we receive in our inbox everyday. Sure, you can send them to you junk e-mail filter, but these e-marketing messages should be completely barred from the Internet.
For a review of the basic law, follow-up legislation, rulings, and comments, please visit this site Can Spam Laws of 2003 . Spammers hurt our business. This is great opportunity to review some of the components of the current law.
By comparison, your Auto-Responder is "permission based" e-mail. Your List of people have given you their permission to send them e-mails. They provided this permission by opting-in to your e-mails. Furthermore, if they decide that they no longer want to receive your e-mails, they can opt-out via a link at the bottom of the page.
Features of Your New Auto-Responder
1. Manage Unlimited Number of Lists
2. Schedule Broadcasts Quickly & Easily
3. Create Opt-In Forms for Your Website & Blogs
4. Send HTML or Text Messages
Here is a link to your Free Auto-Responder. This link will take you to our website sign-up page. The Auto-Responder program is called Response 2-0. It comes with three excellent training videos. It is free up to 250 members, then there is a modest monthly charge. Once you get 250 members, we believe you will be happy to pay a modest charge; significantly below current market price charged by some ot the more popular auto-responder programs.

Your OBA Business Franchise... Making it Pay!
Last week, we made our first recommendation on a Program/Product. Now it's time to Make it Pay!
We made this recommendation based on our assumption that first-time Internet Marketers want a stable, low-cost, and low-risk Program to get started.
That recommendation was the Online Business Alliance (OBA). As we will explain, the OBA, while a complete Internet Business Franchise... still should not be the focus of your marketing efforts. Why? We believe you are on far more solid ground if your marketing efforts stay focused on a Marketing System!
We want you to know up front that you will be offered other Income Streams within OBA; which you can sign-up for, or you can refuse. Or, perhaps put off until you make some money. These additional Income Streams are in addition to the OBA basic Internet Business Franchise. In OBA, you pay a one-time $5 fee (low-cost; low-risk) to purchase an entire Internet Business Franchise. This is a stand-alone business... you do not need to sign-up for anything else.
The OBA Internet Business Franchise includes several excellent E-Books (which you need to read), Splash Pages for Advertising; an Immediate Payment of $5 for anyone who purchases one of these E-Books from you, and an Auto Responder that will send a Chapter a day of the Internet Wealth Report coded with your sales links to your leads.
Your OBA Internet Business Franchise also includes Traffic Exchange Profits (TEP). More on TEP below, but first a bit more on additional Income Streams... These type of offers are very characteristic of any Program you join. That's the way this Internet Marketing business is conducting.
We are not recommending these Income Streams. We simply want you to know about these offers and what they are all about. We want to manage your expectations! We do not want you surprised by something you did not expect. Here they are:
You can upgrade either your OBA ($30 one-time) or TEP ($15 one-time) now, or you can wait until you have made some money. Both offer additional income streams. OBA pays you $20 for all the upgrades you sponsor, and TEP pays you $10 per upgrade (plus provices access to some additional exceptional squeeze Splash Pages). If you work this business hard, these are two very valuable upgrades.
Practically speaking, and if you are new to Internet marketing, we would rather you learn exactly how these programs work prior to upgrading.
Within OBA, you can also upgrade by purchasing an Advertising Space, Space #1. More experienced Internet marketers might wish to jump on this opportunity, but anyone new to this business probably should probably wait until they have made some money. Advertising Space, Space #1 is actually The NPN (FYI).
Within TEP, you will be offered a 30-day free TrafficWave account. We advise you sign-up for the account if you want to take a look around. You do not have to leave a credit card, PayPal, or AlertPay account number or e-mail address. It's completely safe.
However, depending on the other services you may decide on down the road, we would most likely recommend that you completely pass on the TrafficWave account. It is a potential income generator, but a lot of it's services are redundant with other OBA services.
As we mentioned above, your OBAInternet Business Franchise includes Traffic Exchange Profits (TEP). This is a powerful marketing system which squeezes your subscribers to predetermined or already chosen Traffic Exchanges, with fantastic splash pages you will use to advertise TEP.
These Traffic Exchanges (TEs) are: Traffic-Splash (already recommended), Traffic Witch, Traffic Hoopla, Traffic Swarm, and Top Surfer. You will need to set up free accounts with these TEs. If you are already a member, you do not need to join again. Just use your current user-id.
You do not necessarily need to use these TEs for your own surfing and advertising. Just advertise their Splash Page(s), as part of your business, to earn free traffic credits. As members join through your advertised Splash Page(s), and surf; they build credits for you.
Keep in mind as well that anyone who purchases a book from you will also have their own OBA Internet Business Franchise which includes TEP. This is where your business really goes viral. They will also sign-up for these same TEs, and they will be signed-up under you... so, you earn additional credits when they surf.
Plus, if anyone in your down-line upgrades their accounts to paid memberships, or if they purchase credits, you can earn commissions. Each TE is different, so make sure you know which pay you and for what. Here are the commission rates for the TEP TEs:
TrafficSplash
Free Membership: $1 per Referral (Surfs 20 sites)
Paid (Pro) Membership ($9.97/month): $1 per Referral (Surfs 20 sites)
• 50 Percent for Pro-Referral Upgrade
• 10 Percent of Referral Credit Purchase
Traffic-Witch
Free Membership:
• 5 Percent for Pro-Referral Upgrade
• 2 Percent for Referral Credit Purchase
Paid (Pro) Membership ($9.97/month)
• 25 Percent for Pro-Referral Upgrade
• 5 Percent for Referral Credit Purchase
Traffic-Hoopla
Free Membership:
• 10 Percent for Pro-Referral Upgrade
• Unk/NA for Referral Purchase
Paid (Pro) Membership ($9.99/month)
• 50 Percent for Pro-Referral Upgrade
• Unk/NA for Referral Purchase
Traffic Swarm
Free Membership: None
Paid (Pro) Membership ($30/month)
• Level 1 = $5; Level 2 = $4; Level 3 = $3; Level 4 = $2; Level 5 = $1
Top Surfer
Free Membership: None
Paid (Wholesale) Membership ($10/month)
- 100 Percent... You make the entire membership fee/month!
Once you are generating income from your TE memberships and earning traffic you did not surf or pay to get, you can do anything you want with your traffic (traffic credits). It does not really matter. You can save your credits, give them away, or do nothing at all with them.
Why? Because you are making money without selling anything! You are earning up front income from TEs before you sell your next book. You may decide to use some of your initial book sales to fund some of your TE upgrades, but eventually the upgrades can be self-funded with referral commissions. You will find that having paid or upgraded TE memberships are more valuable to you.
In TEs, advertising credits have a cost. You can surf to earn or you can purchase the credits outright. The going price to purchase credits is 100 credits for a dollar. You can get them for less when they are offered in bulk or on discount, but for illustrative purpose; let's assume each credit costs a penny.
If credits cost one penny each to purchase and you are able to earn 2,000 credits per hour surfing, then you are generating $20 of advertising per hour. You have earned 2,000 credits at a savings of $20.
To generate 2,000 credits per hour, you need to earn at least one credit per click. Surfing multiple traffic exchanges with a tabbed browser, you can click 2,000 times per hour and earn 2,000 credits. However, you need to have upgraded memberships in your traffic exchanges in order to earn one credit or more per click.
Surfing as a free member you can earn between 500 to 600 credits per hour. If your credits have a value of one penny each, you have earned yourself $5 to $6 when you convert your credits to income.
That's the basic difference between paid and free TE accounts when surfing for credits. Obviously, we do not know what your operating budgets allow for advertising. However, simply using TEP to generate traffic credits and revenue are huge advantages to your business!
The TEP Marketing System is a powerful way of building the foundation of your business, but you can't be expected to have paid or upgraded accounts in all 6 TEs. You would be spreading yourself too thin, and you might start advertising too many things; which would make your overall advertising less effective.
We've identified our top two recommendations to get started:
• TrafficSplash : First of all, they have extremely well converting Splash Pages. And, as a Pro member, you are eligible to receive random Referrals from the company. We have a ton. Like TrafficG, you can capture the name and e-mail address of your referrals and add them to your list. You can send them outside e-mails to encourage their participation. You get paid $1 for every Referral that surfs at least 20 websites; plus, you receive a 50 percent commission on upgrades to Pro membership.
• Top Surfer : Again, you get to keep their entire Pro (Wholesale) membership fee, month after month. We consider this a huge opportunity to build long-term residual income!
The potential residual income from these two TEs alone is staggering! And, you receive this income for as long as your members stay active. And, you should continue to build your membership!
We've spoken of maintaining a positive relationship with your Client/Buyers. Your down-line members in just these two TEs are also potential Client/Buyers in any Program/Products that you might recommend to them in the future.
We have an extremely important tool which allows you to do this! And, we will introduce it to you next week. It's completely Free and consistent with our business philosophy of providing our clients with the tools to ensure their success!
Stay tuned for next weeks Affiliate Intell Bulletin. You are about to embark on the next level of success in Internet Marketing... Building and Managing your LIST!
Work YOUR business hard, and MAKE it work for you. This is not an overnight "promise" of wealth. It's a very real and honest internet franchise. You will not only make money, you will also be providing others with a valuable service.
We hope you're excited. If you're not, you should be. You are on the cutting edge of an opportunity that provides you a stand alone Internet Business... a business that you need to concentrate and focus on! If you do, you have no other option than to succeed!
"Your success can be best measured by the number of people to whom you have provided the tools to ensure their success."

Our First Program Recommendation
Let's quickly review what we have covered so far. We might have surprised you with our strong recommendation not to sell or advertise any Programs/Products until you first learned how to start building a list of future Client/Buyers... a list you could approach on a favorable basis based on Relationship Marketing techniques.
These techniques focus on providing "value" to your future Client/Buyers as a top priority; thereby building a relationship built on trust. And, we provided some free services that you could join, experience yourself, and hold these in reserve until you begin the process of developing relationships. To solidify these relationships, you can offer these same free services.
These free services are MyFreeAdboard, FreeTrafficBar, Me2Everyone , and The Bar.
This is our motto for success in Internet marketing: "Your success can be best measured by the number of people to whom you have provided the tools to ensure their success."
We also recommended TrafficG, EasyHits4U, and TrafficSplash as highly effective Traffic Exchanges to allow you to start building credits.
________________________________________
Let's press on to this week's topics: Safe Lists. A lot of new Traffic Exchanges are also including Safe Lists as part of their repertoire; probably because of their popularity. While we do not ignore their popularity, we do question their effectiveness.
A Safe List is a "closed" sponsored list either hosted by a Traffic Exchange website that provides this as an exclusive service or one of the new Traffic Exchange sites that has included it in their 'grab-bag' of services.
In simple terms, you are given permission to send an advertising e-mail to a like minded individual who is entitled to send you an e-mail advertisement. Since both parties have agreed to receive these e-mails, neither is vulnerable to Spam complaints. Therefore, these lists are safe from Spam complaints.
We experimented with quite a few of these services. Over time, we became overwhelmed with these e-mails, and we had to finally force them to our Spam killers. Suffice it to say that others are probably doing the same.
Let's face it, Internet marketers are looking to sell their Program/Products and they have time constraints like everyone else. Why waste that time reading someone's e-mail advertisement?
The same holds true for fellow surfers. Surfers clicking along furiously for credits are not looking for something to buy. Their primary concern is to build credits to maximize the probability of converting their Program/Product into a sale.
Consequently, this translates into two very important money making tips for you:

Let's face it, Internet marketers are looking to sell their Program/Products and they have time constraints like everyone else. Why waste that time reading someone's e-mail advertisement?
The same holds true for fellow surfers. Surfers clicking along furiously for credits are not looking for something to buy. Their primary concern is to build credits to maximize the probability of converting their Program/Product into a sale.
Consequently, this translates into two very important money making tips for you:
1. You only have a finite number of credits to use for advertising. And, whatever that number, it is not relevant to our purpose. What is relevant is that if you are advertising a high number of Programs/Products, you conversion to sales is going to be low. On the other hand, if you are only advertising one Program, your conversion rate will be much higher. It's in your best interest to focus all your effort on a single, high conversion Program/Product.
2. A surfer is aroused by the possibility of improving their surfing results. They are attracted to Traffic Exchange advertisements if they think there is a possibility to improve their surfing results. Therefore, they are much more prone to click on one of your advertising Splash Pages if they perceive a value to them.
As we just mentioned, your advertising credits are finite. They are limited by the time you have to surf and/or the amount of money you may have budgeted to purchase credits. Therefore, it is very important for you to develop methods toward increasing the number of credits available to you.
There is very attractive way to generate more credits at Traffic Exchanges through leverage and viral marketing. This is done by what is known as "squeezing" your Traffic Exchanges through a single program. By advertising one Splash Page, you are squeezing your sign-ups into joining 5-7 Traffic Exchanges that you belong to. So, when someone signs-up for these exchanges, they are signing up under you. When they surf, they are earning credits for you!
You stand to profit in a number of ways. First and foremost, these Traffic Exchanges will reward you with credits when your members join and surf. You benefit because you can either spend less time surfing and devote your time to other aspects of your internet business, or you can use your additional credits to increase your advertising, or both.
Secondly, you will earn commissions when your members upgrade to a paying account or purchase credits. In effect, your marketing becomes part of your business. This turns otherwise liabilities into profitable assets. (*We will have more on this topic next week.)
_______________________________________
Here is the Program/Product we promised to recommend to you. It's called the Online Business Alliance (OBA). For a onetime cost of only $5, you get a complete Internet marketing business. This is the quickest and most effective Program available on the Internet. You get immediate payments to you PayPal or AlertPay account. If you do not have these accounts, you can sign up using these links: PayPal, AlertPay.
OBA is also a very low-risk business. You are not committed to a monthly membership, and you are not paying an exorbitant price for your business. Furthermore, it's established and has a tenured history on the Internet. Based on this strong rationale, we are recommending it you! The most you could possibly lose would be $5. Of course, our objective is to see that you succeed.
For your $5, you receive a complete business franchise that includes an automatic auto-responder follow up series of messages to your referrals, professional and highly developed Splash Pages to use to advertise and promote your business, free hosting of these Splash Pages, an Ad Tracker, and top notch training and support. We are excited about this opportunity for you. But, we also want to provide you some cautionary remarks prior to making our recommendation.
One of the primary benefits you get with your subscription to the Affiliate Intell Bulletin is our best effort to provide advice prior to entering a program. One common characteristic of most programs is that they can be a bit overwhelming for anyone new to it. We want to manage your expectations, and we want to inform you of some of the potential pitfalls you may face.
The only potential pitfall we found in OBA is simply due to misunderstanding some offers once you get into your new business. Suffice it to say, at this point, that you do not need to sign-up or pay for any other paid programs. These are simply additional income streams that you can later go back and join.
Actually, the OBA program is really quite simple. You pay $5 via PayPal or AlertPay and you get three excellent e-books: Stacked Income, Stop Being a Victim, and the Internet Wealth Report. You can market any or all of these books, and when someone purchases one (and, like you, they get the entire OBA business system) you get paid $5 immediately.
OBA Business Owners receive an unlimited supply of products. As an OBA Business Owner, you'll never spend a dime for additional inventory. OBA Business Owners have the advantage of offering high-demand products that are available nowhere else. Their exclusive products provide important information that is critical for anyone who is interested in creating an income using the Internet.
OBA Business Owners enjoy the benefits of real-time cash flow. As an OBA Business Owner, you'll be paid instantly and you'll keep 100% of the purchase price on every sale! This allows your business to become profitable very quickly... and remain profitable!
OBA Business Owners have room to grow. *All OBA Business Owners are immediately eligible to participate in our unique advertising program that allows them to build their own Internet advertising business capable of generating a life-changing income without doing any additional work!
OBA Business Owners enjoy automatic income, recurring residual income, and residual income that grows automatically! OBA Business Owners have unlimited 24/7 access to the very best support community available anywhere; the Owners' Business Center, where you'll get honest answers and reliable information when you need it, no matter where you live or what time of the day or night it is!
I could continue, but let me summarize by saying that OBA is designed to help you succeed. Your success is our goal, and as the months and years go by, Online Business Alliance will continue to grow and adapt and become an even stronger resource for you as you work to build a brighter future. With that in mind, there is one more very important element that I'd like to mention... OBA Business Owners are able to focus their efforts.
The greatest mistake that people trying to make money on the internet make is that they tend to lose focus and jump from program to program. Let's face it, there are programs out there that will promise you "instant" wealth, "make $1,000 to $5,000 a week," etc. etc. These are all lies. Read Stop Being a Victim. It's excellent. Learn your business! Spend time with your business... master it, and ask questions. The OBA has an excellent support Forum, and you can contact us anytime!
Work YOUR business hard, and MAKE it work for you. This is not an overnight "promise" of wealth. It's a very real and honest internet franchise. You will not only make money, you will also be providing others with a valuable service.
We hope you're excited. If you're not, you should be. You are about to embark on an opportunity that provides you a stand alone Internet Business... a business that you can concentrate and focus on! Believe us when we tell you, you will laugh at the other so-called great money-making opportunities you see when you surf the Traffic Exchanges. Once you understand just 50 percent of this program's attributes, you will realize a confidence and conviction in what you are doing and the choice you made.
* This is "Traffic Exchange Profits." We will have more on this next week.

Avoid the "Killer" Mistakes Building Your Internet Business
In our Affiliate Intell Bulletins No: 3 & 4 we provided methods of Free advertising as well as some free products to advertise. If you have not had the opportunity to sign-up for these services, please do so now. The links to these advertisers and products are contained below.
________________________________________
Internet marketing can get a bit out of hand if you do not prioritize what you advertise. You can easily waste advertising credits if you fail to prioritize your advertising effort. This is where things become a little fuzzy, but it should all make perfect sense to you as you read on.
MyFreeAdboard and FreeTrafficBar are basically advertising tools, correct? However, they are also Products that produce income and/or credits which are both valuable to you if you promote them. (We will provide more ideas on how to prioritize and identify your major Programs/Products in future bulletins.)
By Comparison, Me2Everyone and The Bar clearly fall into the Program/Products fold, and would be most accurately be called Products. However, when Me2Everyone goes live, they will evolve into a Program most likely containing a number of different Products.
We also introduced you to the single best Traffic Exchange on the internet. It is the only one that provides you a referral's name and e-mail address. This Traffic Exchange is TrafficG.
TrafficG should be a major part of your business! Sign up for your account. Once you have an active account...
1. Start surfing to activate it, and build your credits.
2. Advertise your referral ID on your MyFreeAdboard and on FreeTrafficBar. (We will provide two more Traffic Exchange websites below to further assist you.)
3. Find your Referrals, save them to your List, and send a welcome/thank you e-mail.
This is how we got started and we know these methods are highly successful. You will be rewarded for this effort. If you cannot find your referrals or need assistance, go back to Affiliate Intell Bulletin #4. Please save these bulletins for reference. Or, you can always find them on this Blob.

We mentioned last week that we would provide you with Things to Avoid. These are the "Killer" Mistakes that cause 75 percent of Internet Marketers to not only fail, but also build large credit card debt trying to force success:
You will not be a millionaire by next Thursday.
(If someone tells you otherwise, they're lying.)
You can't double your money every week.
(If Warren Buffett and Bill Gates can't, neither can you!)
Nobody's going to flood your PayPal account with money while you sleep.
(You know that, right?)
The "gurus" don't care about you... they just want your money.
(Sorry, but it's true.)
"Get three who get three who get three" doesn't happen. Avoid the Matrix Promise!
(They just tell you that because it sounds so easy.)
People will lie (or misslead) to you to get you to send them money.
(Not just some people... MOST people!)
When honest people deal with dishonest people, the dishonest people ALWAYS WIN! But, why should they?
(That's why you've been losing all this time!)
All the "Caution" remarks listed above all focus on Programs. These Programs provide very attractive, professional, and tantalizing advertisements brought to you through high-priced Splash Pages. They are designed for the express purpose of getting you to sign up with the hope of making a quick buck.
If you want to truly be successful in Internet Marketing, you have to understand and avoid these temptations. You have to be focused and you have to have discipline.
In our first bulletin, we told you that we were not going to recommend any Programs/Products to you. Yes, we have provided you some Products, but they are totally free; and they were timely placed to provide you something to advertise. We have not recommended a single Program.
We advised you to stay focused on Traffic Exchanges, with your main objective being on building your credits and developing your list. If you are following this logic, you will be successful.
And, there really is good news at the "end of this tunnel:"
You CAN make money on the Internet... LOTS of money!
(IF you understand how.)
You don't have to lie or cheat other people to make money!
(It's a fact! Honesty works too!)
You can get all the help you want... when you want it... from REAL PEOPLE!
(And help won't cost you a dime!)
Stay focused! Concentrate on the Traffic Exchanges that we have shared with you. Last week, we advised you to join EasyHits4U and Traffic Splash. There are good reasons behind these recommendations which we will share with you next week. But, the short answer to that question is that they both allow you to build credit and earn commission. And, we will tell you much more on why they are both excellent products to promote.
The most difficult job you face is to ignore the constant temptation to buy something, or invest in a program that sounds "too good to be true." In other words, avoid the temptation of immediate gratification. It just doesn't exist. Avoid these temptations and you will be successful.
We have adapted a "never click" policy on our team when we surf. If there is an ad or a Splash page that appeals to us, we will write down the name of the site and research it later. We never click on a Splash page while surfing. It only slows us down.
By doing this we are practicing sound principles of "time management." There is a time to surf for credit and there is a time to do research. We separate the two functions. We know it's difficult, but if you want to be successful, you will do the same.
There are some very sound business opportunities available, and we will make a major recommendation next week.
However, you need to have advertising credits accumulated in order to advertise a program if you are to realize some immediate success. Keep up the surfing and continue to build your credits.
And, stay tuned for our next Affiliate Intell Bulletin.
In coming bulletins: Myths and Truths About List Builders, Downline Downline Builders, Relationship Marketing and List Building.

Starting Your Internet Business
Programs/Products: Programs are really different than products. Usually, you will find that a program includes several products. A program is an income producing system. (If you find a good one, it may be all that you need. This could be your complete store so to speak, or your complete home business). You will see these “systems” advertised as “the best money making system on the internet,” “our system is guaranteed to make you money,” etc.. These programs combine a number of different products from which the person ahead of you (Your Upline) gets credit and commission. The products are where the money is made.
You can market a product separately from a program. Some programs force (squeeze) a buyer into buying a product to fully utilize the system. A lot of programs charge a fee to join and/or a monthly membership fee… which is ridiculous; while others are completely free. There are programs that will start off by showing an overstated value for what they provide; for example “worth over $2,400”, then give you a much lower price at the end; for example “only $297, but you must act now.” Anytime, repeat anytime, you see an offer that includes books, tapes, a mentor, or video stay away from it. It is intended to draw you into a situation YOU DO NOT WANT TO BE IN. If you see some e-Book that you like, ask us first. Chances are we either have it or know where to get it free.
Now, we are going to let you in on a huge secret to success in this market that will not only jumpstart your business, it will save you a lot of money, time, and aggravation. We want you to build your business without a product. That’s right, without a product. What good is a product if you don’t have a clientele to sell it to? You can take this product, and spend tons of time, money and effort trying to sell it, but you are simply banging your head against a wall. You may eventually sell something, but your return on investment (ROI) will be extremely low.
The very first thing you need in this business is a LIST of contacts. Remember this if you want to be successful in this business: “The Money is in the List.” If you stick with this basic principle, you will be very, very successful. These are your Clients/Buyers! We can not tell you how many people we have spoken with that tell us they do not have a LIST. They now know why they have not had success in this business, and most have spent a ton of money on programs and paid advertising.
We will show you how to develop this list of client/buyers. Your internet business is not about programs and products, it’s about YOU and your contacts. This is your business. You need to market you. Start portraying YOUR best picture of yourself. As we move through this program, we will show you opportunities to place your picture in your marketing materials. This provides “a human touch” and places you a step above your competition. Try to keep this picture under 30 kb… that’s the lowest we’ve seen a site will take. If you don’t like your most recent pictures, use one from your past that you do like. Perhaps you have a family picture. These are very attractive in marketing, as well. Click here to see an example of one of our ads.
You need to develop a reputation of helping people accomplish their goals. You need to create trust between you and your client/buyers. You have our undivided support in this effort. Everything we tell you; everything we write; everything we recommend is yours to keep and do with whatever you want. You have complete resell rites to our material. Use it to meet your needs and grow your business. We will show you how to nurture your client/buyers, and we will give you the tools to do it.
We will introduce you to some Program/Product opportunities in our next Affiliate Intell Bulletin, but we would like you to concentrate on developing your list and setting up some free advertising methods over the next week.
So, how do you built this list? First of all, what do you need to make a contact for your list. You need a first name, and an e-mail address. That’s it!
Who do you personally know that might be interested in a work from home internet business? A lot of people would prefer not to market to family, friends, co-workers, etc. until they themselves are realizing some success. That is completely up to you. So, be on the constant lookout for Names and E-mail Addresses, and save these separately from your other contacts.
We are about to give you access to your own Adboard, so that you will have immediate access to 50-70 names and e-mail address of like minded individuals who are also trying to make money online. As a free member, you will be able to download this list. Save this e-mail list separately from others. You might want to label it “Adboard” list. You should review this list from week to week because new members join and some leave. Just add to your ongoing list. There is no need to delete any addresses. But, WAIT, go to Step 1 first!
Step 2: My Free Adboard
Step 1: Free Traffic Bar
Have we confused you adequately enough? There is a method in our madness, which will be evident a little latter. The Free Traffic Bar is a fantastic little tool. You install it on your toolbar and it displays a short text message. When you click it, you will view someone’s splash page/webpage telling you about what they selling. You may want to see what some look like, but do no sign up for any programs/products!
Every time your browser reloads, you receive a credit. We just want you to build up your advertising credits now. And, you will build up a lot of credits. If you have more that one computer, load it on any you have. The owner of the site, Garland Coulson, is going to try to sell you something. Every time you sign in, there’s an offer to buy something. Just ignore the ads. You can just scroll to the bottom of the page and say NO. Try to go into the site at least once a day. With every daily sign-in, you get 150 credits. That’s 150 more chances that someone will view your ad and buy your program or product. Plus, we are going to ensure that you start off with a ton of credits. Once you have completed this step, go back and get your Free Adboard.
More on your Free Adboard… As a free member, you receive a 50 percent commission on anyone you refer who upgrades to a paying (Pro) membership. Once you have your account established, simply follow the Instructions to get it online. You will learn about Clickbank, Google Adsense, Bidvertiser, and OTO Goldmine. Sign-up for all these free money makers! Make sure you write down all your account numbers, affiliate IDs, and passwords for future reference. If you have MS Excel or any spreadsheet software, you can build a single file with all this information and save it on your desktop.
Also, you get to submit ads on this network every three days. But, you don’t have any program or product!
Here are two fantastic products that you can join and advertise:
Me2Everyone – This is program that is still in Beta. They have not gone live yet. You get 1,000 company shares just for joining before they go live. And, you get 200 shares for everyone you refer. When we first joined, we received 3,000 shares for referral. Now it’s down to 200. And, honestly, this isn’t going to last much longer. They are predicting that 1,000 shares will be worth a good deal of money in 3 years.
The Bar - We almost hate to do this to you because we know that we are crowding up your toolbar; however, this is an immediate money maker. You are not going to make much, but The Bar’s true value is in its Viral Effect over time. You recommend it to your list, they recommend it to theirs, and on and on. In time, and with continuous promotion, this can create a very sizeable income stream for you.
This will keep you busy for a while! Experiment with different ads to see what works best for you. You have a lot of work to do to get started, but it’s well worth it. Next week, you’ll receive more information on free advertising and list building. You will learn about Banner Ads and much more… so stay tuned!

The Cornerstone of Our Internet Business Model
Fourteen months ago we formed a team to research and analyze the merits of whether it was sound judgement to join the ever popular world of internet marketing and business building.
We have spent a great deal of time and have expended a lot of man hours and money doing this research. We have joined programs and have failed. You may have experienced the same. We have experimented with over 75 different advertising systems. We have joined as free members, worked the site, and have upgraded on 52 of these sites.
We believe this research has been well worth our effort. We have learned how to identify the right programs/businesses to join. We have been very successful. Our first 3 months were terrible, and then we started to profit from our efforts. The last 9 months been very profitable. To our surprise, this can work even in this very bad economic climate.
Here Are Our Findings
There is great opportunity in internet marketing and home business development. We consider it a very viable method of increasing one’s income. There is money to be made! This is a growth industry still in its infancy. The internet is making the world smaller, and any new beginner must understand that their market is international. There are over 34 million registered domains (websites). Industry experts forecast that there will be over 500 million registered domains in the next 10 Years. Those establishing a firm position in this market NOW, stand a great chance of succeeding very well once we come out of this global recession.
1. There are three fundamental things that a new business needs to get started; 1.) a product that people want and has value, 2.) a method of letting everyone know you have this product, and 3.) paying customers. To repeat… there are three primary components in an internet based business: Programs/Products, Advertising/Marketing, and Clients/Buyers.
2. There are over 50,000 programs out there on the Internet; resulting in little discipline and guidance toward success; though the promises of success and immediate wealth are plentiful.
Beware of trying to eat all the "forbidden fruit," and maintain focus. This is anyone’s biggest challenge. Over 90 percent of Internet Business advertisers use "Free" teaser advertisements. These "Free" programs most often attempt to limit you to the extent that you have to purchase an upgrade program to reap any benefit. These upgraded programs might be called "Pro", "Gold", "Level 2", etc..
Customer service is a critical aspect in analyzing Program/Product and Advertising/Marketing (more on this in Finding #7). We found that a good deal of internet businesses are fleeting. The owners skim from the top, then move on to another venture. This “internet strip mining” is difficult to identify. However, there are some common characteristics. For example: heavy use of autoresponder messages to get you excited about an opportunity, followed by no follow-up communication once you have joined. We will help you identify and avoid these businesses.
3. We estimate that 90 percent of internet businesses use Direct or "Intrusion" Marketing which focuses on the acquisition of new client/buyers thru spam, misuse of auto-responders and other measures. By comparison, we believe that Relationship Marketing, which focuses on client/buyer retention and continued satisfaction, better serves any new business. Any successful business owner knows that the client comes first. We follow this basic philosophy: Anyone can achieve what they desire if they have provided enough others the ability to achieve what they desire.
Developing Clients/Buyers is critical. Developing a list of potential. These Clients/Buyers need to be nurtured. There are an increasing number of websites that offer exaggerated success stories on how to accomplish this. Such websites are established internet businesses promoting their Program/Product.
Look for websites that provide you complete control of your referrals. By complete control, we mean you have the ability to copy-and-paste, into a database, their name and e-mail; and their phone number and address when available. Referrals are your potential clients.
· They are your “bread-and-butter.” We will recommend ways to nurture them.
· Internet marketing is a multi-level marketing system. It's all about developing a downline that supports your recommendations, join your program, and help grow your income.
4. New internet venture seekers lack the discipline to stay with a single program and work it to success. We base this on our very own efforts… with 6-8 people exploring ‘opportunities’ that attracted them. We estimate that 75 percent of new Internet business seekers fail.
You can avoid this if your know your time zones: Zone 1 is for work on your business, Zone 2 is for research and exploration... like reading our Bulletins, and Zone 3 is for Promotion. Once again, we can not over emphasize the importance of focus.
5. Organizational skills and methods are critical. Build lists and place them on your desktop for quick reference. For example: Start a Banner Code List. This is extremely handy when you want to find the proper banner to promote a program. Give it a clear title that communicates to you. Use Microsoft Word and Excel for these lists, or other comparable word processing and spreadsheet programs.
6. Any new business needs to spend money to make money. You must be willing to invest in your future. The key is getting the most out of your investment for the best price.
We will tell you what has worked for us and why.
7. Customer service is a critical aspect in analyzing Program/Product and Advertising/Marketing. We found that a good deal of internet businesses is fleeting. The owners skim from the top, then move on to another venture. This “internet strip mining” is difficult to identify. However, there are some common characteristics. For example: heavy use of autoresponder messages to get you excited about an opportunity, followed by no follow-up communication once you have joined. We will help you identify these businesses.
These seven findings are the cornerstone of our business model.
We have spent a great deal of time and have expended a lot of man hours and money doing this research. We have joined programs and have failed. You may have experienced the same. We have experimented with over 75 different advertising systems. We have joined as free members, worked the site, and have upgraded on 52 of these sites.
We believe this research has been well worth our effort. We have learned how to identify the right programs/businesses to join. We have been very successful. Our first 3 months were terrible, and then we started to profit from our efforts. The last 9 months been very profitable. To our surprise, this can work even in this very bad economic climate.

There are three fundamental things that a new business needs to get started; 1.) a product that people want and has value, 2.) a method of letting everyone know you have this product, and 3.) paying customers. To repeat… there are three primary components in an internet based business: Programs/Products, Advertising/Marketing, and Clients/Buyers.
2. There are over 50,000 programs out there on the Internet; resulting in little discipline and guidance toward success; though the promises of success and immediate wealth are plentiful.
Beware of trying to eat all the "forbidden fruit," and maintain focus. This is anyone’s biggest challenge. Over 90 percent of Internet Business advertisers use "Free" teaser advertisements. These "Free" programs most often attempt to limit you to the extent that you have to purchase an upgrade program to reap any benefit. These upgraded programs might be called "Pro", "Gold", "Level 2", etc..
Customer service is a critical aspect in analyzing Program/Product and Advertising/Marketing (more on this in Finding #7). We found that a good deal of internet businesses are fleeting. The owners skim from the top, then move on to another venture. This “internet strip mining” is difficult to identify. However, there are some common characteristics. For example: heavy use of autoresponder messages to get you excited about an opportunity, followed by no follow-up communication once you have joined. We will help you identify and avoid these businesses.
3. We estimate that 90 percent of internet businesses use Direct or "Intrusion" Marketing which focuses on the acquisition of new client/buyers thru spam, misuse of auto-responders and other measures. By comparison, we believe that Relationship Marketing, which focuses on client/buyer retention and continued satisfaction, better serves any new business. Any successful business owner knows that the client comes first. We follow this basic philosophy: Anyone can achieve what they desire if they have provided enough others the ability to achieve what they desire.
Developing Clients/Buyers is critical. Developing a list of potential. These Clients/Buyers need to be nurtured. There are an increasing number of websites that offer exaggerated success stories on how to accomplish this. Such websites are established internet businesses promoting their Program/Product.
Look for websites that provide you complete control of your referrals. By complete control, we mean you have the ability to copy-and-paste, into a database, their name and e-mail; and their phone number and address when available. Referrals are your potential clients.
· They are your “bread-and-butter.” We will recommend ways to nurture them.
· Internet marketing is a multi-level marketing system. It's all about developing a downline that supports your recommendations, join your program, and help grow your income.
4. New internet venture seekers lack the discipline to stay with a single program and work it to success. We base this on our very own efforts… with 6-8 people exploring ‘opportunities’ that attracted them. We estimate that 75 percent of new Internet business seekers fail.
You can avoid this if your know your time zones: Zone 1 is for work on your business, Zone 2 is for research and exploration... like reading our Bulletins, and Zone 3 is for Promotion. Once again, we can not over emphasize the importance of focus.
5. Organizational skills and methods are critical. Build lists and place them on your desktop for quick reference. For example: Start a Banner Code List. This is extremely handy when you want to find the proper banner to promote a program. Give it a clear title that communicates to you. Use Microsoft Word and Excel for these lists, or other comparable word processing and spreadsheet programs.
6. Any new business needs to spend money to make money. You must be willing to invest in your future. The key is getting the most out of your investment for the best price.
We will tell you what has worked for us and why.
7. Customer service is a critical aspect in analyzing Program/Product and Advertising/Marketing. We found that a good deal of internet businesses is fleeting. The owners skim from the top, then move on to another venture. This “internet strip mining” is difficult to identify. However, there are some common characteristics. For example: heavy use of autoresponder messages to get you excited about an opportunity, followed by no follow-up communication once you have joined. We will help you identify these businesses.
These seven findings are the cornerstone of our business model.
