So you want to make some money by doing nothing more than
sitting back
in your computer chair? Don't we all. The thing is, though,
that it's possible--all you have to do is navigate your way
through all the crap that is out there. More and more people
are becoming internet entreprenuers each day. Recent surveys
show that by the end of 2005, 50% of all households with an
internet connection will somehow be involved with making money
from the
internet.
So how do you do it? I'm sure you have already done a Google
search for
something like "home business" or "make money at home". And
I'm sure
that searched returned somewhere in the neighborhood of 50
million websites
that either claim you can take surveys and earn money, stuff
envelopes and earn money or be a "secret shopper".
All crap. There's no such thing as taking surveys to earn
money. What all the hype for survey taking neglects to tell
you is that you are entered into a CONTEST to win some money.
More fequently, these "survey programs" award you points
towards cheesey rewards (100,000 points for a free cereal
coupon, etc.). This isn't my idea of working from home.
Stuffing envelopes has always been one of those mythological
internet jobs. Maybe you've heard the stories too: you send
some cash away to some PO Box in the middle of nowhere, they
send you a box full of flyers that you stuff into envelopes and
you get $5 for every one you mail. So let's figure, an average
person can stuff and stick the adress label on--let's say--2
envelopes a minute. That's $10 a minute, or $600 an hour. Not
too shabby. Work an 8 hour day and we're looking at a little
under five grand a day, 30 grand a week, 1.5 million dollars a
year. Too bad it's all crap too. What these companies
conviently neglect to tell you is that you only get paid that
$5 for each envelope that is mailed, and that generates a SALE
by the recipient. Typically, that's less 1% of all mailed
packages, and keep in mind YOU have to pay for ALL postage.
You'll be in debt before you would ever be in profit. Crap,
crap, crap and more crap here.
So where does the crap end and true Internet money-making
begin? Affiliates programs. PIPS, for one. PIPS is short for
Plug-In Profit System, a spider-web like matrix of users who
make a small $50 investment (for aquiring a domain name) that
becomes part of a massive network that is affiliated with
multi-million dollar marketing services conglomerates.
Essentially, PIPS sites sell dozens of products, and the owner
of a PIPS site will make a commission. PIPS sites also earn
huge commissions by setting up other PIPS sites and creating a
huge downline. Money is always possible with a PIPS site, and
your job is clear: it's not stuffing envelopes or taking
pointless surveys, it's advertising your ass off--getting your
site out there. Once that's done, sit back, relax, and check
your mailbox once a month for some handsome checks.
