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.
