I feel compelled to write this article because of my experience in serious online marketing. My story is very much like many many others who have the dream of working from home enjoying their families and friends and not having to trade their time for dollars. So many claiming to make millions and offering a program to have you do the same. And just like many many others you spend a fortune on these programs one after another, work them hard, spend more money promoting them and nothing. I know there are programs out there that are legit and you really can make a living. I also believe that the internet is the commerce of the future. I wanted to share this because I know so many people have dreams but are easily discouraged by the negative experiences often had. Don't let go of your dreams, stay committed, they are real and you can make it.

I continued my pursuit and found a program that has all the features of a high ticket program, only much cheaper, the IPC (Independent Profit Center) Program.

What Is the Independent Profit Center?
The IPC program is basically, as I wrote earlier, a cheaper alternative to high-end marketing programs like Easy Daily Cash (EDC), Road Map to Riches, Liberty League and other marketing programs. The concept with all these programs is the same, only the details vary.

So what are all the costs involved?
IPC Software Package Including Resale Rights: $200.00 one-time payment

IPC Website and Training Access: $49.00 one-time payment

With the Independent Profit Center program, members get full access to the IPC training site which shows them everything they need to get their business online and generating sales within their first 24 hours. Once their business is setup and online, they are shown exactly where and how to promote their business so they can start receiving $200.00 for every sale their IPC website makes.

The IPC Program is not complicated like others, in fact all members do is follow a very simple 4 step success plan.

The Four (4) Steps To Success are:

Step 1 - Join The IPC Program and Complete Your Payments
Step 2 - Access The IPC Training Area
Step 3 - Set Up And Activate Your IPC Website
Step 4 - Follow The Step By Step Marketing Program

Conclusion
With The IPC Program, training and marketing system - earning a few thousand dollars a week is very easy to do even if people have absolutely no experience making money online. Once a person purchases their software package, they quickly see how simple the IPC business is to operate, and how obtaining this type of income is easier than most people believe.

1. It's very affordable
2. It's very easy to set-up
3. It's extremely profitable
4. It works very fast to produce significant income

There are really amazing programs on the internet that can teach you everything about serious online marketing like social media, article marketing and other methods to make everybody succeed. There is one part we cannot control in any program and that is the You-Part.

We all come to the table with different strengths, weaknesses, and abilities, and THESE factors determine what methods will work best for you as an individual. So there is no such thing as duplication. I can teach you all the systems that we have in place in the program and that is a lot, but I can't control your mindset.

Almost 3 years ago I made a commitment to myself that I wanted to get out of the corporate world as a physicaltherapist. I have done home/hotel meetings, cold calling, dropping sizzle cards, buy leads, genealogy lists, fliers, classifieds, postcards…  you name it, I did it, like many other internet marketers. Now I have a way to build my business as I want to build it.

You are solely responsible for your own actions and if you want to get out of the corporate world (and you should be with this today's economy) you must make a commitment to yourself and look for people who can teach you working from home with a legitimate business.  Yet in the end, the techniques I teach you is simply my method. It might appeal to you, or it might not. You can decide to just learn serious online marketing, but you can also market the business opportunity and that is powerful. It's like learning and earning at the same time.

All you can do is study it and decide for yourself. If you'd rather pursue another method, that's great too. Everything works once you master it…

As a free gift for you here is a training call with Robert Kiyosaki, enjoy it…

The Abunza business opportunity has been around now for a couple of months and I have to say, it's now one of the more popular internet home businesses online today.

But what's this Abunza company? What does Abunza sell and can it compete against the other high ticket programs? The co-founders, Michael Spire and Sebastian Saldaarriaga, had chosen the name "Abunza", which means "abundance" in Spanish. In their opinion a business opportunity nowadays has to have four essential elements.

- Good support for the members and pre-enrollees

- Mentoring, especially for the newcomers in the home business

- A Program that has been proven and tested

- Direction and focus is essential

They focus the opportunity on both the English market as well on the millions Spanish speaking people on the internet. The product itself is a digital information library, along with travel rewards in both English and Spanish on a wide variety of subjects.

There are two different ways that you can earn money with the Abunza business opportunity.

Retail Sales - Make 100% commission from every product sale. You own complete resale rights.

Resale Rights - When you sell a complete digital library package for $1197.00 (remember the monthly fee of $54.00), you earn $947.00 on the first level. Abunza will also pay you $250.00 every time one of your tier one team members makes a sale.

Being an Abunza member, you can get support from the Abunza Dream Team for calling back your prospects, in either English or Spanish. This allows you to be making money 24/7. You can focus yourself on marketing your business and the rest will take care of the call center. You are only contacted when money is transferred to your bank account.

Although the pay plan is average and there is only the $1197.00 package, there is nothing really bad about Abunza. You can have success with this business opportunity. There are no passing up sales to your sponsor and with the overrides, your sponsor never break away from you.

4Life MLM home business does one thing very well. It has a product that is in an industry that is well known, but remains unique. 4Life is a product that promotes healthy immune systems. What makes it different is how it claims to do so. 4Life is product that requires people to consume the drink for an extended period of time. Using what is called the T-factor, it instills immunity in others by having immunity qualities from people with strong and healthy bodies. It is similar to how babies gain immunity through their mother's breast milk. The drink in essence tries to give other people immunity '4Life' by consuming the immunity promoting factors that exist in the drink.

The product however, has some flaws in the fact that is isn't yet FDA approved and that in order for customers to feel the positive effects, they must consume the drink for long periods of time. This means, that the marketer must be very convincing and sell the product well.

The compensation program is that of direct sales. Meaning, that you earn based on how much you are able to directly sell to others. This translates into a 4Life MLM home business that in many ways is more like door-to-door sales than centered around network marketing. The problem is though, that large supplementary incomes are more difficult to come by in this manner and the products long term consumption requirements in order to work, mean that without the use of long term convinced customers, it makes it slightly harder to be successful. This direct sales method isn't exactly what people are looking for in their home businesses in this day and age and can be in many ways more difficult. However, for those that are willing to take on the challenge, it is possible to earn extra money. With so many other MLM programs out there however, this program isn't the best starting off point for a beginner and requires a strong sense of dedication.

In conclusion, starting and developing a 4Life home business can be lucrative if someone knows how to market effectively. It is not a scam, but like any business, success will be determined by the skill-set of the marketer. The potential to grow a huge business is there, just not with outdated marketing techniques.

If someone does not have the first clue on how to market effectively, then I would suggest they either learn the skills to be an effective marketer, or else just use the products and take the benefits of it.

We get to see the end product of the very successful people like Tiger Woods and Michael Jordan, not from where these people started out. They already started in the early years. I am sure they could all tell you the same thing. Wealth is not like as it happened over night, or in six days and resting on the seventh! Wealth is something that gets created slowly, over time, and lots of it.

First of all, and that includes all successful people, there has to be a learning curve. We have to educate and train ourselves in the areas we are working in. Once we know what we are doing, we can focus (Follow One Course Until Successful) ourselves in the specific fields. Once you get that feeling of improving and getting better, you will get more motivated to continue. And in my opinion here is the key or secret to become really financially free.

We all can stay motivated or have a drive for becoming successful or rich for a certain amount of time. There will be times down the road we fail in something or we get injured and our motivation or drive will become less and less and at last we quit or stop. 95% of the people in network marketing have had this kind of experience.

It is not about a lack of education, I know a lot of people who know more than me. It's not about a lack of motivation or desire, it's not about a lack of money. What all those people are lacking, I call it a mission.

I'm impressed with the quality of the videos Animoto created. They are more compelling than simple slide shows and I can see how this product could be very popular with social networking users. It is certainly conceivable that Animoto could enjoy the kind of rapid growth that popular MySpace slide show creation apps like Slide and RockYou! have experienced. Animoto could also be useful for jazzing up vacation photos or producing low budget music videos.
