13 Investigations before you start a home based business

Internet Due Diligence Defense Program 2007™
13 SIMPLE INVESTIGATIONS TO AVOID GRIEF BEFORE YOU
START A HOME BASED BUSINESS!
- this article reprinted from www.mlmwatchdog.com as a precaution

1. SIMPLEST PUSH BUTTON INVESTIGATION: Look at the supposed MLM or Affiliate Company’s Website. First suspect clue would be no street or city address! Worse yet, only an email address, no phone number. Then look for the pictures + names of the owners/operators of the company. Not having these pictures andnames on a company Website is very suspicious and a good reason not to join.

2. HIGH - HIGH TECH PUSH BUTTONS: Some wise, seasoned Internet distributors use “http://earth.google.com/” to look at satellite pictures of the size and location of a supposed Affiliate/MLM Company office. If the Company address is a trailer house or home? Run!

3. LOW TECH CHECK ON ANY HOME BASED BUSINESS OFFERING: If the Address is PMB that means it is one of "rent a mailbox" at a commercial mail box place. They do not have the legal protections of a U.S. Post office for you! Get suspicious when you see PMB! Very, very suspicious!

4. PUSH BUTTON INVESTIGATION HOME BUSINESS AFFILIATE OR MLM: Go to the Internet and enter the following into one or two of the major search engines: A. The MLM Company's name (owners too) and the word "scam". Go through two pages! Look for forum - message comments for legitimate complaints (see D below).
B. Then do the same for "complaints, lawsuits, and news articles archived on search engines.
C. Also check the name of who registered the Website domain of any new company claiming: exciting, amazing, incredible, proprietary, never seen before in the universe, revolutionary, products, services or technologies! Check http://www.whois.net/ for the domain lookup. Companies with wonderful offerings would work on a project for more than 3 months. Smart legit executives register domain names first!
D. A warning on MLM due diligence for Affiliate OR MLM Researchers! There are sad sites and forums that are unfairly negative toward all Affiliate - MLM - Network Marketing companies. Ignore these "Affiliate MLM Bashers" and only look for appropriate information.

5. PUSH BUTTON MLM, PARTY PLAN, AFFILIATE, NETWORK MARKETING DUE DILIGENCE = CHECKING WEBSITE TRAFFIC: A. The next time someone approaches you about a “Hot Opportunity” download the tool bar from http://www.alexa.com/ and look at the Alexa rating which shows web traffic. This is a great web tool
B. If you look at Quixtar or Mary Kay, two of the largest older MLM companies, you will see they rank 6,000 and 7,000 those are top rankings. If you look at Xango.net which is a booming 3 year old new company they rank 26,000 which is excellent. This MLM Watch Dog site ranks around 45,000 which is considered real good. Affiliate marketing follow the same pattern with Amazon king of Affiliate programs a at 2. If you look at Linksurge.net an affiliate program I just put up online I am very happy with Alexa rating of 340,000 after just 45 days and we are at about 150 working members.
C. A lady asked me to look at a 5 year old company that she said was “Hot”.... the ranking was 386,000. That my friends, is down in the mud for a 5 year company! I put the lady down as deluded or hyped! If she had told me it was 45 days old I would have said 386,000 = ok. The lower the number the more traffic to the site. This isn’t a perfect measurement but one that can quickly and usefully sort out hype vs. truth. Basically if I have a rating on Linksurge.net of 340,000 with 150 members after 45 days, the 5 year old MLM Company with a 386,000 rating is dead,dying or done!

6. RUN FROM A COMPANY TAKING ONLY MONEY ORDERS OR CHECKS: Only use a credit card that will accept charge backs. Returns? Honest companies allow refunds within 60-90 days (6 states require a year)!

7. AFFILIATE, MLM, PARTY PLANS & NETWORK MARKETING COMMON SENSE: Don’t let the money over-excite you! Use the products or services being sold first! If they excite you, then look at the money. You should try sharing and selling the products/services to test them out. Spending some money to test a company and their offerings is a wise thing to do.

8. NEXT HOME BUSINESS AFFILIATE OR MLM DUE DILLIGENGE RESEARCH: Go to the Better Business Bureau (new window) Website for the city where the MLM-Network Marketing Company is located. Some are free, some charge $2! You are looking for the number of complaints the BBB has NOT resolved. If there are over 3-5, hold off joining, it very well could mean problems.

9. FOLLOW UP HOME BUSINESS RESEARCH: Check with the Attorney General in the state where the company is located. Be very brief with your email or phone call and stick with asking, “Affiliate or MLM Company XXX is located in city in your state, do you have complaints against Company XXX?” A complete list of Attorney Generals is in MLM WatchDog DUE DILIGENCE & COMPLAINTS Library.

10. HOME BUSINESS "WATCHOUT": An email solicits you to a "HOT" Affiliate, MLM, Party Plan or Network Marketing Company!
A. Look for exclamation marks and capital letters used to lend legitimacy or urgency! Beware of disclaimers such as “this is not a pyramid selling scheme or scam” (legitimate offers don't contain such claims). Don't believe promises of fast wealth.
B. If you feel, see or hear "Get Rich Quick!” Run! If it sounds too good to be true, it usually is! MLM - Network Marketing takes some work, like any good Home Based Business.

11. DON'T SPEND OVER $500 TO START: See the FTC Warning below this article. There are also approximately 21 states that say this should be the maximum to get started in any business opportunity (not just MLM). Two states say it must be kept under $200. Following the advice in #6 should not cost over $500. See the LATEST Federal Trade Commission (FTC) warning below.

12. READ THE FINE PRINT IN THE AFFILIATE OR MLM CONTRACT: These are the Enrollment Agreement or Terms of Agreement plus Policies and Procedures. These all together are a business contracts, enforceable in a court of law. The Distributor Rights Association says they shouldn't be over 15 pages long. Don't sign if you don't feel comfortable about the contract. See http://www.mlm-dra.org/ for warnings about companies violating contracts.

13. COPY THE PAY PLAN AND ASK QUESTIONS: Then find an expert to analyze it.
A. If it only pays for signing up new people and not sales of products/services - run!
B. There's a copy of my MLM Compensation Pay Plans Book on Amazon. Search for my name by author - Rod Cook. No, this is not a shameless promotion for my book. My book is the only one with big pictures, diagrams and detailed to help both the new person and expert. MLM Watchdog ethics let me say it's a good book! Plus my book has a whole chapter on avoiding Pyramid Schemes.

So what if you have your website up?

This week, a friend set up her website and announced her online site. What an exciting time for her to finally get an internet presence. And now the waiting begins, for the floods of orders coming in. How wrong can most people be.

Unlike a traditional shop that has a shop front and people walking past, on the internet traffic is everything and I hope she is trying out some strategies to drive traffic to your website, so they buy from her, and not from the 235 million websites on the internet, also looking for the same product she is selling.

I've invested so much time and money on courses, seminars, books and still can't get enough traffic that converts to paying customers. Conversion of 1-2% is good - meaning if 1 person
buys out of 100 visitors, you have good and qualified traffic, that can convert into paying customers.

So I've decided to stick with selling via blogging and on high traffic auction sites like eBay and Lelong. At least I know the buyers and sellers here are genuine, have been verified by eBay and Lelong and also have positive ratings by their buyers or sellers.

Visit my auction links on the right to view my listings.

If you like to get started on eBay, I sell the "Ebay entrepreneur kit" e-book for just RM 7 - http://www.ebay.com.my/viItem?ItemId=140095903320 and another e-book called "How to automate your eBay cash machine 99%"
- http://www.2click.com/idevaffiliate/idevaffiliate.php?id=kingkraal_11

Every success in your online business venture and share with you more soon.

Easy work, hard work and smart work

Most people are willing to work hard for 20 to 30 years till they retire. And some are even willing to work even harder, with a 2nd and 3rd job!.

These people know, that what is easy cannot pay much, or else, all the lazy people, would already have jumped at the chance – way before them.

So the philosophy is simply this – what takes some effort will surely pay the most and the longest, as most people are not willing to invest their time and energy.

1. Do what most people know but don’t want to do, and you work hard and earn little.
2. Do what most people know but cannot or have fear to do, and you still work hard but earn more.
3. Do what most people don’t know and cannot do, and you will work smart and be rich.

Does this make any sense to you?
So are you looking for simple work, hard work or smart work?

Smart work is having leverage – when you have the knowledge and skills to teach others how to do the work, and yet get paid off their efforts. So do you have leverage in what you do?

Coming with a dream but leaving more confused?

Are you still reading this blog with a dream, but till today, still leaving confused?

Yeah, me too. So many experts online, earning hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands daily, it's seems so unreal.

So what will you do?. Well if you are like me with a tiny glimmer of hope, that I too can do it, then let me share wtih you my journey, trying to start an internet business.

Way back in 2003, I spent a few thousand $ attending a 3 day 2 night workshop. Yes I paid attention and didnt sleep at all and took lots of notes. End result - the presenter was trying to sell us his network marketing business. What a let down as I already have a thriving Network Marketing business already. You can visit my blogs at http://theglobalgroup.blogspot.com

So in 2004-6, I attended whole day workshops, attended all the previews, read all the books, tried and tried miserably. Yet nothing much to show for it, except a few thousand spent and lots of confusion with still no income.

End 2006, a good friend shared with me his guru's sure get started and make big money site.
Managed to register a website and got it hosted and then applied to clickbank for approval.

Guess what?. Clickbank does not and will not accept merchants resident in Malaysia. My dream went up in smoke again.

But I did read some good ebooks on getting started in ebay, and decided why not try ebay and some auction sites. You know what? At last I've found something that works at last! Here are my 2 auction sites - http://www.ebay.com.my/listResults?browse=0&SellerId=gedungkraal
and http://members.lelong.com.my/Auc/List/List.asp?DataAction=Apply&UserID=kingkraal

Low costs to put up items for sale with heavy traffic in auction sites, makes this a good place to truly come with a dream and leave with a plan.

More to share with you soon. Thanks for your visit and see you again soon.

Bored at work?. Want some excitement or to earn some $

Are you bored at work?. Don't know how to pass
the time except to read blogs, post comments and
complain about the boss, the colleagues, the
weather, the economy and the government?

I've been multi tasking daily, working online, and
yet using about 7 hours daily clicking on some
links, and earning some money.

If you can't multi task, then forget it. But if you
can, then you can earn USD0.01-0.03 clicking
on 30 second adverts.

Imagine in 7 hours (420 minutes), you could
click on 840 adverts, and earning US$8.40
daily x 20 days monthly = US$168 / RM 588
/ THB 5,880 / S$ 255 monthly!.

What's the catch and why am I sharing this with you?

You can click this link
http://www.clixsense.com/?2076416
sign up as a free member and see just 4 ads
daily, or you can sign up for a year membership
(only US$10) and see 500 ads daily.

And if you do signup using this link, the
company pays me US$5. And if you do share
this link with your friends and they signup,
they will pay you US$5. So if you get 2 friends
to signup, you already recovered your cost for
the year.

What if you cant use 7 hours a day clicking on
30 second ads or none of your friends sign up
using your link?

With your investment of US$10 for 12 months,
if you just clicked on 4 ads for 21 days, you can
earn 4 x 21 = US$0.84 x 12 = US$10.

So don't complain there is no opportunity or for
being bored. There's a RM 35 / TB 350 / S$16
way to start making a productive & profitable
use of your free time.

Still thinking?. Don't think so much, as thinking
cannot make you rich and US$10 in your bank
can't either.

But US$10 invested here, can give you some
excitement at work, and also a chance to earn
some profits to pay your mobile phone or car
installment.

http://www.clixsense.com/?2076416 click
this link now and start having fun at work!.

Online Ads & Surveys that pay you

The question most people ask is this -
Can just click and make money meh?.

Well the answer is certainly a yes....BUT you cant
get rich, but certainly earn enough to pay your
phone and petrol bills.

from US$2-35, just to answer a few questions.

Internet Marketing for Dummies

The 2 biggest businesses today are information (internet) &
product distribution. This blog will introduce you to
information distribution

In short, over the last 8 years, I've been working online from
home on the internet. I decided that I wanted to spend more
time with my 3 girls and had to learn some new skills, that
would help me to earn money working from home.

It may sound improbable that you can earn money online,
but it is not impossible, as many have and continue to do it
daily, like myself.

If you can spare 1 hour daily, you too can learn some new skills
that will help you to start a new career of working from home,
while having the free time to pursue your hobbies.

I will assume you have no prior knowledge and will guide you
on how to get started correctly - with no money down initially,
as you setup a few things for yourself.

Here are the steps to get started and the costs involved to
start an online internet marketing business:-

1. Open an Internet banking account like Maybank2U or
CIMB so that you can track payments made to you from
home.

2. Open a Paypal account that will enable people to pay you,
using their credit cards. You can send them emails and
they can pay into your email account. Setup costs - FREE
You only pay a fee (approximately 3.5%) which is deducted
from the amount someone pays you. Click below:-
https://www.paypal.com/row/mrb/pal=3KJD32EV39LYW

If you want to start selling things on Ebay international, you
must have a paypal account which will link to your Ebay.

Once you open up this Paypal account, you can also refer
friends or other merchants to Paypal and earn a referral
commission everytime someone pays your friend.
https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_web-referrals-mrb&login_access=1171537852

Maybe you have friends globally who have traditional shops
or want to accept credit card payments for their services.
Paypal can help them expand their business, at the same
time, you get a referral commission when someone pays
your friends.

3. Open up a FREE Clickbank account that will allow you to
sell your own or become a reseller for other people's
e-books. Clickbank is like paypal - the only difference is
that Clickbank works only with digital products like e-books,
whereas Paypal can accept payments for physical goods,
payments for services or even donations. Click below:-
http://kingkraal.reseller.hop.clickbank.net/

If you don't have anything to sell, you can go to the
Clickbank marketplace and become a reseller for
the hundreds of e-books there. FREE signup too.
http://kingkraal.marketplace.hop.clickbank.net/

Here is links to see 4 affiliate products I sell:-
http://kingkraal.ipoddl.hop.clickbank.net/
http://kingkraal.camera.hop.clickbank.net/
http://hop.clickbank.net/?kingkraal/blackbook
http://hop.clickbank.net/?kingkraal/sseduction

You can also refer friends to signup with Clickbank
and earn a referral commission.
http://www.clickbank.com/referral_program.html

These 3 steps can get you started with no money down,
some sweat to read and learn and then promote these
sites by including email links to your family and friends.

The profit is small, and that's why, you receive so much
spam from people you don't know. Because the law of
numbers works - spam 1,000 & 1-2 people will buy.

4. You can now start selling products in Ebay.
http://www.ebay.com.my/ has no fees to list your products to
sell and no commissions are charged for items sold.
http://www.ebay.com.sg/ charges low fees to list your
products but no commissions for items sold.
Ebay US, UK or Australia charges listing fees
and commissions should you sell your items.

Or if you do decide to open an Ebay store, then there
are charges to incur. But you don't need a Ebay store
yet, until you have some success in Ebay first.. So for
now, keep your costs low and just go for individual listings.

Don't know how to get started in Ebay?. Click here to buy
this ebook at RM8.95 / S$4.95 /US$ 2.95 and get the info

or this link Ebay Cash Machine - how to automate your
ebay business 99%
http://www.2click.com/idevaffiliate/idevaffiliate.php?id=kingkraal_11

If you are now willing to learn a bit more and invest a bit
of money, to earn a lot more, then move to step 5.

5. Still dont find something interesting to sell or don't
want the hassle of doing the packing, and delivery?
Work with the largest Drop Shipper who have the
lowest wharehouse prices and will ship the product
for you. Read more here:-
http://www.dropship-business.com/index.html?aid=187686

6. Register to get your own domain or website address.
Visit http://www.netfirms.com/ and click on the bottom right
hand corner that says US$4.95 domain names. This
is the cheapest site with no commissions paid out.
If you need help, just ask me. This price is for the use
of your domain name for 1 year.

Now that you have your domain name - e.g.
www.yourname.com you need a hosting site to make your
website public, so people can find your site. Go to step 7

7. Host your website with Hostingbay here - https://secure.hostingbay.net/idev/idevaffiliate.php?id=2576
Choose the budget plan at just US$40/year

You now can have your own website online- your shop open 24
hours & ready to accept orders with just RM13/S$ 6 monthly cost.

So what do you need next?. Find some products to sell.

8. Click http://kingkraal.cjb.net/ to learn more about how to
get started and to 147 exclusive products you can brand

Why do you want to begin this journey?

You got to have a good reason to begin this journey....
It's not easy, but neither is it difficult.

So why did I begin in the first place?

Maybe my story will inspire you to begin this
incredible journey, and seek the rewards that I had,
when I started a long way back.

It was 1999 after the economic crisis in Malaysia and
it was the year that I received some disturbing news -
my dad had 6 months to live. I was then 40 years
young, working 16 hours a day, 7 days a week and
enjoying a nice lifestyle.

What would you do, if you had such terrible news
one day - busy in your career and knowing you have
some moral obligations to do?

I don't know about you, but at 40 with 3 teenage
daughters, I didnt have enough savings to last a 6
month break from work, to spend the last few days
with my dad.

At that time, I was also having some communication
problems with my teens...I guess its common if both
parents work, leaving the kids without proper advice
and guidance.

As luck would have it, I ran into a familiar face from
my previous gym near TMC, Bangsar and he shared
with me an idea of working from home. What would
you do if you were in my shoes?

That's how I began this incredible magical journey,
and have never looked back since.

So you have to ask yourself this question -
What backup plan do you have, if you have to quit
your job today?

And if you don't have a 2nd or even 3rd source of
income today, then do you have the reasons to begin
learning some new skills so you are not caught off
guard one day - when the money stops coming in
when you stop work.

We are so clever to teach our kids - play now and
pay later or pay now so you can play later. We need
to pay the price today, to invest an hour a day to
learn some new skills, so that we can truly earn
money while we sleep.

Today, my eldest girl is doing her final year business studies in Sydney, my 2nd girl just finished her Form 3 - 1st in class for the year, 8As in PMR and 8As in UEC, and the girl scout leader for forms 1-3. She is also the school ambassador for visiting foreign students. My 3rd girl is doing her UPSR this year.

And I am their personal driver, coach, friend and most important - their ATM machine - press and money come out!. Am I lucky? Or did I do the pay the price and do the things to get me what I really wanted?


So why do you want to begin this journey?
