View Article  "Getting Rich: The Poor Man's Guide" on 20/20" Last Night

Last night my daughter was working, son was at the movies, hubby was in "the cave" and I was working at the computer with the TV on for background noise.

View Article  Beware of Latest Ebay Scam Affecting Sellers

Most of the time, we read of Ebay™ scams affecting purchasers. (A friend   of my moms was recently bilked out of $800+ purchasing through Ebay. She has   proof...but nobody will do anything, including the police).

Another common scam involving Ebay are Phishing scams. If you don't know what that is, read "How Not To Get Hooked By a Phishing Scam" written by the Federal Trade   Commission.

But, scams also affect those who sell through Ebay, as reported ...   more »

View Article  RealCashPrograms.com Doesn't Pass The Smell Test

In yesterday's edition of The Framington TAB, there was an article about RealCashPrograms, based out of Swanton, Virginia.  Seems that consumers told the Better Business Bureau that the company promised "lots" of money for doing things like shopping, taking surveys, and watching tv. Allegedly, they told people that they could earn up to $95 per hour for these activities. You, kind reader, just need to send in a fee and you'd get the inside scoop.

It's scams like this ...   more »

View Article  12 Daily Pro Scam?

Today I was listening to The Clark Howard Show in the car and a guy called in asking about 12 Daily Pro and wondering if it was a scam.

Clark came right out and said it was an illegal pyramid. First time I’ve heard him actually use that term when referring to a company.  Basically, he said that if the best interest rate out there is around 5%, why would these people pay 12% every 12 days. Since I...   more »

Fugitive Couple With Amway?

Interesting twist to the story of the woman who helped her husband escape from jail.

“Cabdriver Mike Wagers said the Hyattes gave him two $100 bills for the $185 fare. He said he didn't recognize the pair or notice a leg wound police said Jennifer Hyatte suffered in the shootings.

“Wagers did become suspicious, though, when they told him they were headed to an Amway convention. Their sales pitch didn't seem nearly aggressive enough, he said....   more »
View Article  Financial Freedom Society Inc. Increases Commissions to 90%

financial-freedom-society-logoThe Financial Freedom Society’s CEO Kelly Reese recently announced that the company was increasing the commission pay out to 90%. 

Now that may sound impossible, but FFSI does not manufacture products.  That limits costs dramatically because you don’t need manufacturing facilities, hundreds of employees, packaging, etc. And, Kelly feels that the majority of the revenues should go to those producing the revenue for the company – their Membership Consultants.

Y’all know I’m an advocate of a strong product available at ...   more »

View Article  AMS Discontinues Free Trial Offer
Below is a press release from AMS. Here's a key point I found:

monthly product autoships retention are up to five times higher for sales associates as opposed to customer-only autoships.

This substantiates what I've heard from many reps who told me that their retention rate on free customer orders was ZERO.

So, it appears that the majority of people who are keeping the product are those buying a check.

home-based-business-opportunity

It’s bad enough that they’re calling at home.  But now, telemarketers can call you on your cell phone.  And, it’ll cost you money since most plans include a set number of minutes.

Now, there’s been some talk in the news as to whether people will have access to these numbers. Many feel these numbers won’t be readily accessible.

However, yesterday my young daughter received a call on her cell phone selling ....   more »
