Best Book Ever on Network Marketing!

Just like with any profession - network marketing takes work and education. I do plan to post the occasional reviews of specific companies, along with many of my opinions and experience with Network Marketing - but for now I would like to state the following two things:

1) I believe that network marketing is here to stay and it will continue to mature. I also think it is simply the best opportunity available on many levels.

2) The best, most practical book I've ever read (and I've read a bunch) is written by Mark Yarnell and entitled "Your first Year in Network Marketing". It is the only book I recommend to my serious recruits. I've read it three times in the past couple years and firmly believe it has saved my many months of common mistakes!

See this Book Here!

Traffic Arbitrage

I am very excited about this concept! Arbitrage is a low risk strategy employed to earn money in all kinds of industries. It is not really investing - but rather it is the simultaneous purchase and then sale of the same (or very similar) commodity, stock, etc. Of course the concept is you pay a little less in one market and sell it for more in another.

For example: You might take advantage in small discrepancies in exchange rates for currencies. Through some real time quotes, math, and quick action - you may be able to trade your US dollars for Yen - then your Yen for Mark - then your Mark for US dollars and end up with a small profit.

This same thing is done with sports betting, option prices, commodities, etc. It is perfectly legal and actually provides a couple benefits to the market place - namely liquidity and price correction.

Now you can trade the 'pay per clicks' and earn a similar, low-risk profit! Advertisers pay companies like Google and Overture for traffic in an auction style 'pay per click' format. You can buy clicks from one company - and earn clicks from the other for a small profit.

If this is a little beyond your current skill set - one affiliate company gives you the option to purchase shares in his arbitrage program. Here is an excerpt from his page:

"Naturally past performance is not necessarily a guarantee of future performance, but I am confident of a continuing profit.

Therefore I have decided to offer you the opportunity to be involved in this and earn some money yourself, with no effort at all on your part!

I have created an Arbitrage Co-op - with 200 shares available for the November Co-op. These shares are $25 each, and only MPAM members may purchase them, although you can of course buy shares on behalf of someone else.

I do not make any guarantees on returns, but on the basis of previous performance September was 171% return and October 215% return.

At the end of November I will deduct 8% from any profits to pay for PayPal fees, hosting and bandwidth and my time managing the co-op, then the remaining profits will be divided by the number of shares."

Notice the caveat - only MPAM members. But this is easy enough! Click the link above to join for free. I personally subscribe to the 'platinum level' for a monthly fee - and receive at least 10 times back in benefits and income.

My Mission

I hope to help you as you embark on the project of working from home. Whether you are new to the concept, experienced, or trying again - it is my goal to build this site as both a resource and place for refreshing dialog. Some of the topics I plan to cover:

Multi-level marketing (network marketing)
Google Adsense
Affiliate Programs
Niche websites
The internet as a tool
opportunities outside the United States
Ebay

Please don't expect too much organization - as this will develop as I get the urge to write. On the otherhand - a bookmark here may benefit you. One pitfall avoided, or one revenue adding idea may make a difference in your life!

Honest Work From Home?

Strange title? I don't think so. With all the pyramid programs, Enrons, and chain letters out there - it is like swimming with the sharks! How can you sort the real from the fake? I hope to share my experience here over the past 20 years trying (and many times failing). I encourage your comments!
