Marketing Tips Report: 7 Signs it's a Scam

Marketing Tips Report Helping real people create wealth and freedom with Internet businesses since 1996 July 16, 2009 Issue #234 Seven Signs that "Great Opportunity" is Really a Scam The Internet Marketing Center Team The Internet is bursting with excellent opportunities to make money. ... Unfortunately, it's also teeming with unscrupulous scammers who seek to get rich by scamming honest people out of their hard-earned money. Today we want to help you SAVE 1000s of dollars by making sure you can recognize a scam when you see one! One of the most popular scams out there is the "business in a box" hoax. If you are currently in the process of looking for a business idea, chances are you will come across this kind of scam. The "business in a box" pitch looks something like this: Wow, sounds like a sweet deal. Or does it? Think about it... If a company is selling you an opportunity to sell their product, chances are they've sold the exact same opportunity to thousands of other people. (After all, why would they limit their profits by selling the rights to that product only to you?) That means you have to compete against thousands of other people who are selling the exact same product, with the same website, using the exact same marketing strategies you are! Do you want be contending with that many IDENTICAL competitors? (Nope!) Not only that -- if the product really was that hot, why isn't the company selling it itself, instead of merely selling the opportunity to sell it? ... Because they know they're not going to make much money that way, that's why. To make sure that YOU don't get sucked in by this kind of scam, we're going to show you how to filter the REAL money-making opportunities from all the B.S. out there, with our handy "Scam Detector Check List." Whenever you come across a possible business opportunity, simply consult this handy checklist. It'll help you discover if it is a real opportunity -- or a real waste of money. You know you're dealing with a scam IF: #1. The company can't prove a successful track record If you've never heard of the company before -- and they can't offer solid proof they've got a successful track record -- then how can you trust them to help YOU make money? Be skeptical. Ask questions. If they say they're a successful company, ask for proof! #2. You can't talk to a company representative in person Before you make a significant investment in a business opportunity, give the vendors a call. Talk to them in person. Ask them hard questions. If they don't make it easy for you to talk to them in person, then don't do business with them! #3. Former customers have lousy things to say about the product A little bit of research goes a long way. Try typing "the name of the program + scam" or "the name of the program + customer review" into Google and see what results you get. If the majority of the results are from former customers saying the product is a scam or a waste of money, then whatever you do, don't make the same mistake THEY did! #4. 1000s of other people are selling the EXACT same thing If your "business in a box" package includes a product for you to sell, do a search on the name of the product in Google and go through the results. How many people are selling the exact same product? Say hello to your competition! (And how many of them are using the exact same website the company is trying to get YOU to buy?) If a lot of people are selling that product -- and you can't see any way to offer a unique selling proposition that makes your offer stand out from the crowd -- then quite frankly, you're going to find it extremely difficult to make any money at all. #5. They can't show you legitimate testimonials from recent customers If you are making a significant investment in a business opportunity, the company you are purchasing from should be willing to put you in contact with other successful customers. We get this request all of the time, and have numerous successful customers who are happy to give us a personal reference at a moment's notice. (If you'd like to take a look at how we use those testimonials on our salesletters, please look at our sales page for our best-selling course, Insider Secrets to Marketing Your Business on the Internet. Look for testimonials that names, photographs, and URLs, if possible. The more information that proves the testimonial giver is a real person, the better. If the testimonial has a URL, go to that person's website and check it out. Does it look like the website of someone who's making good money? Look for the contact info on the site and then email that person to ask him or her directly about the product you're thinking about buying. If the person says yes, it really is a good deal, and is still experiencing good results with that product, then chances are it's the real deal. However, be on the watch for DATED testimonials. If people were able to make money using this package four years ago -- but the profits have long since dried up -- then the product's not going to do you much good now, is it? #6. The company is charging YOU money to sell THEIR products If a company is making a product that millions of people are going to want to buy, why wouldn't they simply sell it themselves -- instead of making other people pay for the opportunity to sell it for them? The truth is, companies like this KNOW their "affiliates" aren't going to generate any sales. That's why they need to get your money up front! Take it from someone who has been running a highly successful affiliate program for years. If someone wants to become an IMC affiliate and sell our products for us, we'd never make them pay. Why should they? They're doing us a favor! #7. The company makes outrageous income claims without backing them up with proof If a company says their product will have you earning tens of thousands of dollars within a matter of weeks, BE SKEPTICAL. There is no magic bullet on the Internet that can promise a five-figure income in 30 days or less. The truth is, building a profitable business takes TIME. Sure, you can have a profitable business in less than a month... but you'll probably have to wait a few more months before the money really starts pouring in. So whenever you see outrageous income claims, ask yourself -- where's the proof? Look for testimonials that back up these claims. If someone claims to have made incredible money from using this system, track them down via their URL and ask them if it's really true. And be sure to listen to your "inner radar" to determine whether the person is genuine or not. Above all, do your research and ask lots of questions. If you follow these guidelines, chances are you will make the right decisions and pursue the right opportunities. When it comes to online success, there is no magic pill. If you want to start a real business on the Internet you need to be prepared to put in the time and effort to build it. ... Of course, there IS one complete business-building system that DOES deliver on all its promises.

Where to Find Information You Can Trust The Internet Marketing Center Team One of the best things you can do for yourself as an entrepreneur is to soak up as much information as you can about Internet marketing, making money online, and building your business. The #1 thing that separates "entrepreneurs" from "employees" is that entrepreneurs constantly challenge themselves to move forward. They work hard to stay on top of their industry, keeping tabs on the market, their customers, the search engines, new tricks, and old tried-and-true tactics... ...it's a LOT of information! Not only is it a lot to keep track of, it can be tough to sort out the truly valuable information from all the self-serving hype. The Internet is swarming with people who are more interested in getting your money than in helping you make money... and some of them are awfully slick. They'll tell you everything you want to hear, and it all sounds so good -- up until you notice that nothing they suggest brings you sales or puts money in your pocket.

Difference

The Difference between FOCUSING on PROBLEMS and FOCUSING on SOLUTIONS Case # 1: When NASA began the launch of astronauts into space, they found out that the pens would not work at zero gravity (ink will not flow down to the writing surface). Solution # 1 To solve this problem, it took them one decade and $12 million. They developed a pen that worked at zero gravity, upside down, underwater, in practically any surface including crystal and in a temperature range from below freezing to over 300 degrees C. Solution # 2 And what did the Russians do...?? They used a pencil. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Case # 2 One of the most memorable case studies on Japanese management was the case of the empty soapbox, which happened in one of Japan's biggest cosmetics companies. The company received a complaint that a consumer had bought a soapbox that was empty. Immediately the authorities isolated the problem to the assembly line, which transported all the packaged boxes of soap to the delivery department. For some reason, one soapbox went through the assembly line empty.. Management asked its engineers to solve the problem. Solution # 1 Post-haste, the engineers worked hard to devise an X-ray machine with high-resolution monitors manned by two people to watch all the soapboxes that passed through the line to make sure they were not empty. No doubt, they worked hard and they worked fast but they spent a whoopee amount to do so. Solution # 2 But when a rank-and-file employee in a small company was posed with the same problem, he did not get into complications of X-rays, etc., but instead came out with another solution. He bought a strong industrial electric fan and pointed it at the assembly line. He switched the fan on, and as each soapbox passed the fan, it simply blew the empty boxes out of the line. Moral · Always look for simple solutions. · Devise the simplest possible solution that solves the problems. · Always focus on solutions & not on problems.

The New English

For all of you English teachers. Hear is something for laughs or shall we say lafs.

European English: The European Commission has just announced an agreement whereby English will be the official language of the European Union rather than German, which was the other possibility. As part of the negotiations, the British Government conceded that English spelling had some room for improvement and has accepted a 5-year phase-in plan that would become known as "Euro-English" .

In the first year, "s" will replace the soft "c". Sertainly, this will make the sivil servants jump with joy. The hard "c" will be dropped in favour of "k". This should klear up konfusion, and keyboards kan have one less letter.

There will be growing publik enthusiasm in the sekond year when the troublesome "ph" will be replaced with "f". This will make words like fotograf 20% shorter.

In the 3rd year, publik akseptanse of the new spelling kan be expekted to reach the stage where! more komplikated changes are possible. Governments will enkourage the removal of double letters which have always ben a deterent to akurate speling. Also, al wil agre that the horibl mes of the silent "e" in the languag is disgrasful and it should go away.

By the 4th yer people wil be reseptiv to steps such as replasing "th" with "z" and "w" with "v".

During ze fifz yer, ze unesesary "o" kan be dropd from vords kontaining "ou" and after ziz fifz yer, ve vil hav a reil sensibl riten styl. Zer vil be no mor trubl or difikultis and evrivun vil find it ezi tu understand ech oza. Ze drem of a united urop vil finali kum tru. Und efter ze fifz yer, ve vil al be speking German like zey vunted in ze forst plas.

Honesty

Once a general manager wanted to test his people who had come from all over India, about their values of life.He announced that in their seminar folder, there is PVC pouch and in it there is a seed. When they return, they must put it in a good soil in a pot and look after it very well.He would hold a competition in the next year's seminar and that the best plants would be awarded suitably.

Everyone did what was told to him. A year passed quickly. And next year in a big hall, there were hundreds of pots and a great variety of plants-a great scene. Except one pot in which the soil was there and no plant! The owner was standing quietly and seemingly ashamed of himself!The general manager called him on the stage. He asked him what happened and he told him the truth. He planted the seed which he was given – and did that was to be done- but nothing happened!

The general manager declared him the winner! Everyone was shocked. It was announced, "Gentlemen! The seeds I gave you were boiled seeds. You planted them and nothing happened! You acted smartly and used some other seeds. This man was honest to his work and, therefore he did not cheat me or himself!">>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>......

Women and Men

At a dinner party, several of the guests were arguing whether men or womenwere more trustworthy.

"No woman," said one man, scornfully, "can keep a secret.""I would dispute that," answered a woman guest.

"I have kept my age a secretsince I was twenty-one.""You'll let it out some day," the man insisted.

"I hardly think so!" responded the lady.

"When a woman has kept a secret for twenty-seven years, she can keep it forever."

32. Don't take yourself so seriously. No one else does.
33. Believe in miracles.

36. Growing old beats the alternative -- dying young.
37. Your children get only one childhood.
38. All that truly matters in the end is that you loved.
39. Get outside every day. Miracles are waiting everywhere.
40. If we all threw our problems in a pile and saw everyone else's, we'd grab ours back.

43. No matter how you feel, get up, dress up and show up.
44. Yield.
45. Life isn't tied with a bow, but it's still a gift."

Lunch With God

A little boy wanted to meet God. He knew it was a long trip to where God lived, so he packed his suitcase with a bag of potato chips and a six-pack of root beer and started his journey.
When he had gone about three blocks, he met an old woman. She was sitting in the park, just staring at some pigeons. The boy sat down next to her and opened his suitcase. He was about to take a drink from his root beer when he noticed that the old lady looked hungry, so he offered her some chips. She gratefully accepted it and smiled at him.
Her smile was so pretty that the boy wanted to see it again, so he offered her a root beer. Again, she smiled at him. The boy was delighted! They sat
there all afternoon eating and smiling, but they never said a word.
As twilight approached, the boy realized how tired he was and he got up to leave; but before he had gone more than a few steps, he turned around, ran back to the old woman, and gave her a hug. She gave him her biggest smile ever.
When the boy opened the door to his own house a short time later, his mother was surprised by the look of joy on his face. She asked him, "What did you do today that made you so happy?" He replied, "I had lunch with God." But before his mother could respond, he added, "You know what? She's got the most beautiful smile I've ever seen!"
Meanwhile, the old woman, also radiant with joy, returned to her home. Her son was stunned by the look of peace on her face and he asked, "Mother, what did you do today that made you so happy?" She replied! "I ate potato chips in the park with God." However, before her son responded, she added, "You know, he's much younger than I expected."
Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around. People come into our lives for a reason, a season, or a lifetime! Embrace all equally!

Singh is King

Each Friday night after work, Santa Singh would fire up his outdoor grill and cook a tandoori chicken and some meat kebabs. But, all of his neighbours were strict Catholics ... and since it was Lent, they were forbidden from eating chicken and meat on a Friday.
The delicious aroma from the grilled meats was causing such a problem for the Catholic faithful that they finally talked to their Priest. The Priest came to visit Santa, and suggested that he become a Catholic. After several classes and much study, Santa attended Mass ... and as the priest sprinkled holy water over him, he said, “You were born a Sikh, and raised a Sikh, but now, you are a Catholic."
Santa’s neighbors were greatly relieved, until Friday night arrived. The wonderful aroma of tandoori chicken and meat kebabs filled the neighbourhood. The Priest was called immediately by the neighbors and, as he rushed into Santa's backyard, clutching a rosary and prepared to scold him, he stopped and watched in amazement.
There stood Santa, holding a small bottle of holy water which he carefully sprinkled over the grilling meats and chanted: "Oye, you waz born a chicken, and you waz born a lamb, you waz raised a chicken, and you waz raised a lamb but now yara, you are a potato and tomato"!
-- Singh is King....

ENGLISH

If you ever feel stupid, then just read on. If you've learned to speak fluent English, you must be a genius! This little treatise on the lovely language we share is only for the brave. Peruse at your leisure, English lovers.

Reasons why the English language is so hard to learn:

1) The bandage was wound around the wound.

2) The farm was used to produce produce.

3) The dump was so full that it had to refuse more refuse.

4) We must polish the Polish furniture.

5) He could lead if he would get the lead out.

6) The soldier decided to desert his dessert in the desert.

7) Since there is no time like the present, he thought it was time to present the present.

8) A bass was painted on the head of the bass drum

9) When shot at, the dove dove into the bushes.

10) I did not object to the object.

11) The insurance was invalid for the invalid.

12) There was a row among the oarsmen about how to row.

13) They were too close to the door to close it.

14) The buck does funny things when the does are present.

15) A seamstress and a sewer fell down into a sewer line.

16) To help with planting, the farmer taught his sow to sow.

17) The wind was too strong to wind the sail

18) After a number of injections my jaw got number.

19) Upon seeing the tear in the painting I shed a tear.

20) I had to subject the subject to a series of tests

21) How can I intimate this to my most intimate friend?

22) There is no egg in eggplant nor ham in hamburger; neither apple nor pine in pineapple.

23) English muffins weren't invented in England or French fries in France (Surprise!).

24) Sweetmeats are candies while sweetbreads, which aren't sweet, are meat.

25) Quicksand works slowly, boxing rings are square and a guinea pig is neither from Guinea nor is it a pig.

26) And why is it that writers write but fingers don't fing, grocers don't groce and hammers

don't ham?

27) If the plural of tooth is teeth, why isn't the plural of booth be eth? One goose, 2 geese. So one moose, 2 meese?

28) Doesn't it seem crazy that you can make amends but not one amend.

29) If you have a bunch of odds and ends and get rid of all but one of them, what do you call it? Is it an odd, or an end?

30) If teachers taught, why didn't preachers praught?

31) If a vegetarian eats vegetables, what does a humanitarian eat?

32) In what language do people recite at a play and play at a recital? Ship by truck and send cargo by ship? Have noses that run and feet that smell?

33) How can a slim chance and a fat chance be the same, while a wise man and a wise guy are opposites?

34) You have to marvel at the unique lunacy of a language in which your house can burn up as it burns down, in which you fill in a form by filling it out, and in which, an alarm goes off by going on.

35) English was invented by people, not computers, and it reflects the creativity of the human race, which, of course, is not a race at all. That is why, when the stars are out, they are visible, but when the lights are out, they are invisible.

36) P.S. - Why doesn't "Buick" rhyme with "quick"?

Opportunity

A man with a gun goes into a bank and demands money.

Once he is given the

money, he turns to a customer and asks,' Did you

see me rob this bank?'The

man replied,

'Yes sir, I did.'

The robber then shot him and killed him instantly. He

then turned to a

couple standing next to him and asked the man,

'Did you see me rob this

bank?' The man replied, 'No sir, I didn't,

but my wife did!'

Moral of the story- When Opportunity

knocks.... MAKE USE OF IT.
