Broadcast #9 - Programs That Sound Great, But Really Aren't

Do me a favor. Go to google.com and type in "work at home job". You've just opened the flood gates for scams. About two years ago, I did just that, and I thought I was smart enough to recognize a potential ripoff. Boy, was I wrong! These places have gotten very smart. Their writing techniques are so advanced, you'd think they hired a writer with charisma as their marketing tool.

Now do me another favor. Go to www.3500weekly.com. This is Jean. She apparently makes TONS of money doing business with Adsense, Adwords, and Clickbank. Did I buy into this program 2 years ago? Yes I did. Did I make some money? No. Why? Because Jean fails to mention the fact that you have to make your own website, market it, and develop your own e-book. Now let's reverse, on www.3500weekly.com, aren't you paying for HER ebook? Wasn't there an old method a long time ago before the internet even existed that said something about passing a dollar and getting back two dollars? That's pretty much what it is. It's a pyramid scheme but in internet fashion it's hiding by adding extensive literature to "WOW" you.

Here's another site to stay away from: www.eteam2000.com. Yes I fell for this one too. *shaking head*. This is the one I mentioned in a previous post having to do with Herbal Life and how they bugged the hell outta me to buy into their "introductory" money making program. Beware. Oh and by the way, if it's not www.eteam2000.com, it'll be some other website that works with Herbal Life and built their own "empire". Bullshit.

How about Ebay? Can you make money off Ebay? Yes, you can....if you had your own product. Ever heard of www.getestore.com? Yes I fell victim to them too. At first it seems like yes, you can make money. They do give you your own store that's setup and you don't have to store anything....but, how do you market that store? You think it's free to market? It's not. Another method of making money using "your store" is by selling the products from "your store" on ebay. Sounds good right? Did you know that the majority of the products on www.getestore.com are not even brand name? Or the fact that if they are, they're refurbished items? Or the fact that there are tons of other people on ebay selling those same products, so pretty much you're competing to get a customer. What if your products don't sell? Ebay has gotten very greedy that their selling fees are ridiculous. If you were selling 20 products on Ebay and none of them sold, guess what? You have to pay the listing fee that could range from $1.00-$10.00 for EACH product.

BEWARE OF ALL THESE SCAMS.
