How Skype saves you money in your Pay It Forward 4 Profits Business

Skype? What is it exactly? Well to put it simply, if you have a computer, and a high speed internet connection, Skype works very similar to your Home Phone. The only difference is it is a lot cheaper, and sometimes even free.

After you download and install Skype, you can make Skype to Skype calls anywhere in the world for free. You can make Skype to landline of cell phones in North America also for free. And most international calls are 2 cents/minute.

As your Pay it Forward 4 Profits business grows, you will have international members. Some of my fastest growing members are in Great Britain , Australia and South Africa

With Skype, we talk for free. And they can get involved on the live conference calls for a fraction of the cost of traditional land line long distance rates. Skype also allows for a 9 person conference call.

Skype-In is also a great feature. For $4.00/month, I get a regular phone number, call display and voice mail. Phone numbers are available in countries all around the world. Actually my Home Office Number is a Skype Number. I use this because I move around a lot. Where ever I have my Laptop with Skype running, my phone number stays the same.

I recommend you purchase a head set for Skype. It virtually eliminates any background noise. People do not know I am on a traditional land line. My headset I picked up at a computer store got $15.00. You can mow even purchase Skype compatible Cordless Phones that work with your existing land line and Skype through a USB adaptor on your computer.

Why Should You Start Your Own Home Business?

Starting a home business is the dream of many people; in fact, it has become the ideal for millions. If you are reading this article, the chances are high that you are one who believes that there is much more to life than just waking up each morning and working the rest of the day for a wage.

There’s nothing wrong with working for a wage, mind you – especially if it pays the bills! However, an increasing number of people are finding that working for someone else is not very rewarding. After all, as an employee it is not likely that you are being compensated according to your real value to the company. In other words, you only get a small percentage of the fruits of your labors – your boss gets the lion’s share.

Once you realize this, you basically have two choices: you can stay on the same path that you’ve been for many years as an employee, or you can strike out on your own in hopes of getting more out of life.

Jim Rohn say it best: "Profits are better than wages. Wages make you a living . . . profits make you a fortune."

Deciding between these two extremes is not easy, but you will have to make the choice at some point or another. Do you want to be someone who works for others, or do you want to have other people work for you? Do want your time and energy to be spent in enriching someone else, or do you want your efforts to benefit you directly? Do you want to spend the rest of your life working for a boss, or as the boss?

Once you realize that the rewards for employers and employees are significantly different, and that entrepreneurs can expect to have more success than wage earners, then the choice should be easy to make. Having your own home business, being your own boss, and having other people work for you is the key to your long term success. As a wage earner, the amount of money you earn is limited to the number of hours in the day. For example, if you are a secretary getting paid $30 an hour, and you work for a standard eight-hour day, you will earn $240 daily. That’s all you’ll get, unless you work overtime. The moment you stop working, you stop earning. In essence, you personally exchange your time, energy, and skills for a few bucks.

Now, let’s say that you decide to start your own home business instead. Because you are an experienced secretary, you know what it takes to be a good one. You hire three young employees and start a service that offers secretarial services to those who need it. You pay your employees $20 an hour and charge $30 to your clients, netting you a clean $10 for every hour that your employees work – at very little extra effort to you. If all three work for eight hours, then you just made the $240 you used to earn as a secretary yourself – even if you barely lifted your finger. What you’re doing, of course, is exchanging the time, energy, and skills of other people for money – the highway to becoming rich.

The best work at home ventures can be found on the internet. Residual Income is what you are looking for. Do the work once . . . get paid forever.

Does InstantBuzz Really Work?

Yes, for me it does. I promote it to my PIF4P members. I have created an ad on Instant Buzz that gets many hits a week, and at least 1 or 2 signups. Anything that is free to join, no work to maintain, that gets signups to me, is worth doing. The more people that join your InstantBuzz group, the more you ad shows. Get signed up and promote your link to your PIF4P members.

Get 12 times the Traffic from your Traffic Exchange

Traffic Exchanges are an excellent way to promote your PIF4P Site. You all should be members of Traffic Swarm as it is promoted in our Back Office of PIF4P. But there are also many other good Traffic Exchanges out there. I have looked at many and found a few that I have had success with.
What I am going to show you below, is how to get 12 times more results out of traffic exchanges in the same time it would take you to surf just one. Remember though, when you are surfing the traffic exchanges, take some time to look around. You can learn from some of the other ads.
This set will take an hour or so, but it will so be worth it to your business.
Your first task is to join and enter all of the Traffic programs you feel comfortable with. It is NOT mandatory to join ALL the programs but I highly encourage you to do so. Just signup for one program at a time.
Here are the links to join up for all the Surf Exchanges. If you are already a member of one, skip to the next one. All programs are free to Join

----------------------------------------------------

When you are signing up, you will be asked to enter a target or a website URL to send your Hits to. Now please pay close attention! The web site you should be entering is your Pay it Forward 4 Profits Web Site. If you are a paid member of Response Magic, your URL should look like this: http://username.payitforward4profits.com This URL will allow you to track the hits and signups from The Hit Tracker feature in the Back Office of PIF4P. If you are not a paid member of Response Magic your URL will look like this: http://www.payitforward4profits.com/username
The information you will want to right down, or maybe copy and paste into a Not Pad or Word Pad document for each site as you sign up is you’re User Name and Password, your SURF URL and your REFFERAL URL. You may have to log into the site after you sign up to get this information. Make sure after you sign up and log into the site that you website you are promoting is as explained above.

-------------------------------------------------

Once you have all this information and especially your SURF URL’s for each of the Traffic Exchanges you will have to install Crazy Browser.

This lesson is a bit longer but is an ABSOLUTE MUST for you to succeed with LSN.
I will break this down in 5 simple steps for you. Just do 1 step at a time and then come back to this page.

Step 1: Download and install 'Crazy Browser' by clicking here: http://www.crazybrowser.com/
I use Crazy Browser, as it is a small program and will not interfere with your current preferred Web Browser. You only need to use it when you want to Surf your Traffic Exchanges
What the heck is a Crazy Browser?
Crazy Browser is a powerful web browser. It has the ability to open multiple sites and windows inside a single browser task. This has full support for Windows XP theme and P3P privacy policy (requires IE6) and JavaScript error suppression. It can handle multiple monitors and has tab status indicators. Annoying ad windows can be removed automatically and multiple pages can be saved and reopened together.

Step 2: Crazy Browser has a feature that allows you to save any combination of URLs as individual groups.
Open Crazy Browser and in the address line type in or copy and paste the first SURF URL from your list of Traffic Exchanges. Once the page has loaded, copy and paste the 2nd SURF URL from your list. You will notice a second tab opens in Crazy Browser. Now continue to do this for all your SURF URL’S. When you are done, you will have a total of 12 Tabs open in Crazy Browser if you signed up for all the Traffic Exchanges.

Step 3: Now, click on the main menu at the top of Crazy Browser where it reads "Groups" and then click on "Save all pages as group." A windows file window will open, give your group a name; i.e. Traffic Exchanges.

Step 4: After having done this, every time you start Crazy Browser you cansimply open the saved group in the menu bar from the drop-down menu under "Groups." When the pages finish loading, you can just press F3 to go to the next hit exchange program to bring up new pages in the manner required by each different program. When you initially open your browser you'll be earning 1 credit in all the programs at once. That's 12 plus credits just for opening your browser.

If you have a slow connection and/or not very powerful computer, opening 12 pages or more at the same time may be too much. In such a case try less pages until your computer is running fast enough that you are happy with it.

Step 5: Crazy Browser allows you to disable pop-ups by clicking on "Options" in the top menu bar, then on "Advanced Settings" and then on "Popup Filter" in the drop-down menu to the left.

Using this method with a cable connection I can generate 600-1200 hit credits in a little over 1 hour. You can set your own target according to your connection speed and time limits.
Even without any referrals, working 12 or more traffic programs at once using this method allows you to generate a large amount of traffic. Add the traffic you can generate by sharing this method with your referrals and you are talking major streams of free traffic.

There are many different programs on the web geared to using hit exchanges to generate traffic, but they all have one thing in common - their foundation is hit page traffic generation. In that regard, what I am teaching you is a method 12 times more powerful than any of the others. It provides a way for you and all of your referrals who join the traffic programs under you in replicating it to generate 12 times the traffic.

Please Note: When you open your Crazy Browser and load your saved group name, not all the Surf 4 Hits programs will auto load to your start URL. You may have to log-in to a few of them the first time to get things going. This is an awesome tool - LET'S ROCK!

Now, feel free to use this letter and in place you my referral urls at the top of the page, insert your referral urls and send the message to members in your Active PIF4P members. Only show this to you active members. I could be a bit overwhelming for new members.

Happy Surfing,

Rod Larrivee

Home Based Businesses: A Recipe for Success?

Starting your own home based business is not always an easy decision to make. Home based businesses, after all, do not seem to be very secure, nor are they prestigious. However, before you get discouraged and start enumerating the reasons why you feel that your “little” home based business cannot possibly work, you should take some time to read the following stories.
A long time ago, there was a young drug store clerk named Asa Candler. Candler decided to start his own home based business after purchasing a beverage recipe from the town doctor for $500. That amount represented his entire life savings, but Candler was dedicated to making his home based business work. Today, that venture is a multibillion dollar company with an unmatched international distribution network. It owns the most recognizable brand name in the world. What is this company? You’ve probably heard of it. It’s called Coca-Cola.
One day, Anita Roddick, a British woman whose husband was frequently away on business, decided to make her hobby a moneymaking venture. Roddick, with little to do whenever her husband left town, didn’t choose to watch soap opera reruns or take aerobic classes. Instead, she took to concocting with various potions in her garage. She gave a few of these potions to friends and found out that they were very popular, so popular that she was soon selling them all over her neighborhood. This home business, from such inauspicious beginnings, is now an internationally-recognized franchise that does billions of dollars of business each year. What is this business? It’s called the Body Shop.
History bristles with examples of large corporations that started close to home. Truly, “great things start from small beginnings.” Did you know, for example, that Microsoft was started in a garage, by Bill Gates and Paul Allen? Looking at the company now, that’s pretty hard to believe, but it’s true. Back then, Gates and Allen were just two “geeks” who were more interested in writing software then they were studying in school. In fact, Gates dropped out of Harvard, worked on his home business, and produced MS-DOS – the rest is history. Bill Gates is, of course, currently the richest man in the world, and his company, Microsoft, dominates the software industry.
Now, you may never aspire to reach the heights that Candler, Roddick, and Gates have. But it doesn’t mean you shouldn’t try. The purpose of this article has been to remind you that even the greatest of successes were at first small ventures, not unlike the one that you are planning to build. As long as you infuse imagination, creativity, and plain old hard work into your business ideas, there is no reason to believe that you will fail. Even if you do, you should simply pick yourself up, learn from your mistakes, and push forward. You never know: your home based business might become the next Microsoft, or the next Coke! Get excited and make it happen!

Home Based Hurdles

A home based business entrepreneur generally starts out prepared with a business plan, plenty of capital, knowledge of the product or service she or he is selling, a good Web site, a marketing and advertising plan, and the means to get the product or service to market.
What happens often, however, are eventualities that the home based business entrepreneur simply did not think of. While these can be annoying and worrisome, they don't necessarily have to mean that the entrepreneur has to put aside his or her home based business idea.
Two common issues that can arise in a home based business are zoning restrictions and noisy neighbors. Someone may have moved into an area before they decided to become an entrepreneur and open a home based business. Now he or she finds out the zoning may be a problem. He shouldn't panic. The first thing is to check the zoning ordinances.
The primary issues with businesses based out of the home are neighborhood disturbances caused by the business - clients making noise, coming and going at all hours, taking up parking space on the street. If an entrepreneur has a home based business that does not typically have clients coming by, there usually is not an issue. Examples of this might be online store businesses, writers and editors, graphic artists, virtual assistants, and services that go out to their customers like landscapers and errand services.
Even if the entrepreneur should find out that the home based business is restricted by zoning it's still quite possible to talk to the neighbors, get their okay and then go through the proper government channels to get a permit for conditional use or a zoning variance.
Noisy neighbors can be a problem for an entrepreneur with a home based business, and if it's just a question of loud rock music the resolution is to ask nicely. If that doesn't take care of it there are law enforcement options. If, however, there are perfectly allowable things out of doors, such as lawn mowers, a child care center down the street, the neighborhood pool party, and so forth, that the owner can't do much about there are things that help mute the noise. Something as simple as rearranging furniture, or lined and weather-stripped drapes could help considerably.
A more expensive option, but one that would allow the entrepreneur to still view the beautiful outdoors while working at her home business would be to replace the office windows with new triple glazed ones that keep out noise. Another alternative is to replace annoying sounds with soothing ones - background classical music, or a fish tank's gurgle can make a big noise difference.

Internet Marketing

Curious about Internet marketing or network marketing, not sure, what it is, or how it works? Is it a modern day version of a pyramid scheme that is now on the Internet? No, it is not a pyramid scheme it is a network of individuals who sell products. You probably have been one of those consumers. The way that network marketing functions is that certain individuals have an extensive knowledge of the products that are going too sold. This is not the same as going into a store and asking a sales person for information on a product, they then look at you as if you came from another planet, and they have no idea how to answer your question. Those with this information train others to be as knowledgeable as they are and then they do train others and so on. While the training takes place, each representative will sell the products via word of mouth and everyone profits financially.
Multi-level marketing (MLM) differs because they are a large company that will train individuals to sell a product and then these new representatives will train another when they have learned about the products and each works at various levels of compensation. In multi-level marketing (MLM) the companies financial growth does not depend on the amount of products sold their profit comes from the amount of individuals that are part of their company selling the products although they do require that the products are only sold through multi-level marketing (MLM) business.
In order to rise to the top of company in the economy of today you usually have to work for them your entire life and that is not done as much as it was done 50 years ago. Most employees are always looking for the better off and will not hesitate to leave the firm they are with if they are offered a better financial package. This is one of the draws of network marketing that they can make a residual income for the rest of their lives and work it as either fulltime or part-time. You can work a current job and do network marketing on the side until you are ready to do network marketing full time. What most people like about this form of income is that there are no barriers to the amount of money you can make or any form of discrimination or the thought of not having enough qualifications. The risk is low, the financial requirement to start is low, and you do not have to restock items. Your primary investment is a good work ethic and a willingness to meet new people and let them know how their lives can change for the better.

Profiting From Internet Home Based Businesses

These days, very few people can ignore the opportunity that the internet offers. Unless you are among the affluent few, internet home based businesses can give you a very large boost in your income. Thus, it is important that you understand how they work and how you can make such businesses work for your benefit.
Internet home based businesses can help you earn a salary, and they can help you earn residual income as well. Residual income, of course, is money that you earn for a one-time effort, as opposed to a salary, which you only receive as long as you keep working. Residual income allows you to profit from something that you have already accomplished in the past, such as when an author receives royalties on a book that he has written, even if that book was written twenty-five years ago.
If your concern is earning a salary, you will have no dearth of opportunities online. As long as you have a specialized skill, you should be able to find work. Telecommuting is now an accepted practice for most companies, so take advantage of it. You can sell your personal services on both a salaried basis and a freelance basis, whichever you prefer. Both have their specific advantages and disadvantages, so choose carefully. If you become a salaried employee, for example, you will necessarily have less control of your time, but a more regular income. A freelancer, on the other hand, only gets paid for the work he actually finishes,
If your goal, however, is to earn residual income, then affiliate programs should be an important part of your strategy. Affiliate programs, as you know, are programs that allow you to advertise and sell someone else’s goods and services for a commission. Unlike what most people think, however, succeeding in affiliate marketing actually does require work – lots of it, at least in the beginning. Finding a good partner merchant and selecting a reasonable compensation package takes quite a bit of research, something that most people are unwilling to do. However, it is very important that you lay the right foundation, so spend some time here and look up what if currently available.
As with every business matter, being able to trust you partner is important, so look up on your partner merchant’s record. If you know anyone who has done business with them before, be sure to ask them about the experience. You might even sacrifice higher returns with a relatively unreliable company to work with a more established one.
Once you have established a relationship with a suitable partner, all that’s left is developing your site. There are many resources on this on the internet, be sure to look them up. Site building software is also available, so check that out if you feel that you need more assistance. As long as you put a good effort into the creation of your site, your internet home based business will flourish, and you’ll stand a good chance of earning through it for years to come.
