Part I: Is Your JV Affiliate Program Headed For PayPal Hell?
© 2006 Mark M. Bravura
A Brief Background and Introduction-
I am Mark M. Bravura, Master Designer of the Enterprises and
Entrepreneurs® Stealth Mastery Learning System.
Over the course of the last seven years, I've seen one heck
of a lot of schemes, scams and shoddy offerings come and go.
At the current rate of Web expansion [100,000+ new Web users
per day] the amount of deceptive hype has risen to alarming
proportions.
I have paid dearly in *extreme* Due Diligence, and have
determined that there is a desperate -crying out- for the
TRUTH; devoid of ALL hype or sales pitches.
Hence this article series.
Bottom line, is that I seek to save you as much stress,
duress, shame and wasted time/money/resources as I possibly
can; in order that you can avoid entirely the atrocities of
Web marketing, such as:
Severe depression from being falsely alluded/promised,
divorce, homelessness, loneliness, social deprivation,
etc...
So, if you're merely seeking a 'magic money fix' that stands
to make you boatloads of cash and new prospects practically
overnight...
You're obviously virgin to running your own Web venture.
That said, you are in for a real Eye-Opener...
The first strong recommendation I have for you is-
To choose *very* carefully who- in online marketing- you
choose for your e-commerce payment solution provider!
Here's what Expert Marketer, Liz Tomey, has to say:
“PayPal has brainwashed many people into thinking how safe
they are to use, and how easy it is to pay with PayPal. It’s
our job to un-brainwash these people...
The only way to cripple such a big company like PayPal is to
hit them where it hurts. In their 'money'.
If we all come together and boycott PayPal maybe they will
take it’s sellers into more consideration.”
-Liz Tomey
PayPal Hell
http://www.JustSayNoToPayPal.com
To add my own 'two cents' to the above...
“Or get shut down with a cease-and-desist order; with all of
*their* accounts frozen pending a full Investigation!!!”
This series was massively inspired by Liz Tomey's sad but
superb, no-holds-barred shocking truth concerning PayPal.
Due to circumstances, PayPal is the only viable alternative
for millions of people to make a living for themselves-
And -up until very recently- myself included.
As a matter of fact, I had absolutely no desire to spend
untold hours and energy- unpaid- to produce this very
document...
Except that due to PayPal's tyrannical business practices,
like Liz-
I felt an unquenchable need to strike back for the 10's,
possibly hundreds of thousands of dollars [let alone life
wasted] that they are causing people all over the world,
every hour of every day.
That said, it is my sincere hope that this series will
save you, as well as your loved ones, friends, colleagues,
etc...an *ungodly* toll in humiliation, suffering and loss:

http://www.paypalsucks.com
Please take a moment and drop me a quick e-mail to let me
know that this definitely blessed- and very possibly spared-
you from the unwarranted shame of having your account frozen
with absolutely *zero chance* for appeal!
This information was freely brought to you at *intense*
sacrifice, via...
Due Diligence-
This is one subject that the vast majority of 'marketing
gurus' avoid like the plague.
Why?
Because if they were 100% straight-up with you from the get-
go and told you in no uncertain detail exactly just how hard,
time-consuming and money-consuming owning and operating
your own truly successful biz op *really* is...
They somehow got it figured that you'll end up opting out
and they'll end up losing the almighty buck they stood to
make on your complete and utter ignorance.
The faster and easier they promise you tons of money and
leads; the far more cynical I'd be, if I were you.
As a matter of fact, if it is anything short of a slow and
methodically built-up system- over a reasonable period of
time [6 months to a year]; then I can all but guarantee you
that you are setting yourself up for some serious grief.
Sure, there is the rare exception to the rule- such as that
deftly-crafted and patiently-researched JV proposal you hit
BIG with; even so, you done paid your Due Diligence.
I have been actively involved with all aspects of online and
network marketing since 2000; I've got an entirely different
approach-
Tell your people the truth- the *whole* truth- and nothing
but. Don't sell them pipe dreams, fluff and just plain
crap; in the hope of making a sale.
In fact, don't sell them anything. Give 'Till It Hurts [one
of Robert G. Allen's superb Principles].
And when you actually do attempt to 'sell' your reader
something-
Do it in a way that they are both absolutely eager and
confident in your recommending them such a kick@$$ deal,
offer, etc...
Treat your Reader [most literally] as if they were your best
friend, and develop a *relationship* accordingly.
And this is one of many ways Due Diligence comes into play.
One very sad mistake I see over and over again, particular
to JV Marketing newbies; is promotion of a 'cookie
cutter' biz op that they [obviously, to a seasoned veteran
marketer] are not the absolutely delighted *end user* of.
If you're just starting out [or strongly considering doing
so], do not fall into this fatal trap.
In other words, before you go wishing failure, stress and
duress upon yourself; and learn your lessons compliments of
the University of Hard Knocks-
Be the end consumer of whatever it is you'd seriously
consider promoting and put it to the ultimate, hardest-core
Satisfaction Tests that you can possibly devise.
Believe You Me-
This one Principle, alone- if mastered with passion and zeal,
will increase you base-rate chances of success by *at least*
double!
The very next bit of very hard-earned insight I'll freely
reveal to you- so you don't have to pay The Price...
This actually goes hand-in-hand with the above Principle
[an 'axiom', if you will]:
Do NOT, for love of all that is precious in your life, promote
something that you are not whole-heartedly sold on;
failure is a statistical certainty waiting to happen!
So, to sum the above two Principles up-
Find a means of online revenue that is something you are
already approaching as an joyful leisure hobby; and then
research out biz ops that naturally compliment your favorite
hobby.
After carefully researching and refining your biz op you'd
like to focus on; aggressively put it to the test- as the
end user- and see if it truly Stands and [over-] Delivers on
all promises made.
The third Principle for achieving Outstanding [on line]
Success, is to [initially] focus on *no more* than two
completely -complimentary- biz ops that meet the above
criteria.
With more than two, initially, you will start *abundantly*
reaping stress, frustration and the Law of Diminishing
Returns.
And, though this may- at first- sound a bit oxymoronic; do
NOT focus on making the sale. Instead, focus on the wants,
needs and desires of your Loyal Readership, and sales will
follow, naturally, in a completely relaxed, zero-pressure
manner.
Your Readers will truly appreciate your total lack of hype
and high-pressure sales tactics; and will be far quicker to
recommend you [provided you freely share killer content and
Premium Goodies with them]!
Face it- 95%+ Online Ventures Will Fail.
The odds are already stacked grossly against you.
So what makes you think you even have a but a ghost of a
chance to actually be in the Elite Top 5% Online Success
stories?!?
Bear in mind, that your competitors go to great lengths to
keep you within the buying [albeit failing] 95%....
Simple.
You now have the *leverage* of my experience, skills and
vast knowledge on what actually is and is not a wise
investment of your resources- and more importantly- why.
:~D
If, six years ago, when I was still 'green around the gills'
someone was as up front and brutally honest in revealing
the four core Power Principles that you just received gratis-
I'd of cut my achieving Outstanding Success 'downtime' by
*at least* half.
So, if you are fairly new to marketing and promotion -or-
are tired of wasting your precious resources on failure
after misery-laden failure-
Then I highly encourage you to read [and re-read] this
segment again. Let it deeply 'massage' your Success
Thoughts...
Do a complete re-evaluation/overhaul on your current point
of view and take these four Power Principles to heart!
I can not even begin to describe how far more rapidly [and
enjoyably] you'll achieve the online success you envision
for yourself-
Let alone the amount of *failures* you will NOT have to
endure!
Well, that about wraps up this segment. In Part II, you'll
discover the single most powerful Timeless Principle that
works with -ALL- entrepreneurial endeavors...
Can you guess what it is?
Warmest regards on your journey toward Outstanding Success!
