It is late and you are not able to sleep because the stress of your mounting bills and lessening income. Making ends meet is freaking you out and you know that you need to do something more to increase your income. You turn the TV on in order to relax and get the stress off your mind. While channel surfing you find infomercials after infomercials. - Sound familiar? Well, I have been in those shoes before and one of the infomercials I was going to fall asleep to turned out to Jeff Paul's Internet Millions Shortcuts. I, of course, did not fall asleep at all, I watched the whole hour of it. I then went to the computer and researched the program, with major skepticism.
Logical thinking would denote that there are a few problems with this program; such as earning a million dollars in only 3 clicks. Jeff Paul's Shortcut to Internet Millions System states that it only takes "3 simple clicks" to making a million dollars on the internet; if that is the case, why give it away for $39.95?
Making money on the internet is truly possible; in reality, there have been many fortunes made online and these people know that there is more to making a million dollars online than just "3 simple clicks". Yes, you have the opportunity to become wealthy online, just like the best of the Internet Marketers. However this opportunity will only become a reality to you after you learn about Internet Marketing and how to correctly work the programs.
Jeff Paul charges $39.95 for a start-up package consisting of over 10 "3 click" websites and the instruction manual. Unfortunately, the instruction manual does not provide much information except for what has been said before in other money making systems; the ease of making a million dollars online while you sleep or playing with your family. These programs claim that you do not need any knowledge or time to work. Now, my question is, if it is that easy, why is there so many reports on the net claiming fraud and scam? If making money online was so darn easy, everyone would be doing it and there wouldn't be a recession. Here is the catch with Jeff Paul, after you purchase the simple instruction manual and websites, your phone will begin ringing off the hook with telemarketers selling more expensive packages; in upwards of $5,000, $10,000. The telemarketers claim that their product of the week is of utmost importance when you are serious about making money online; basically you won't make money unless you purchase that product today!
There are some really awesome coaching programs and online communities that provide the necessary skills for a successful career marketing online. Honestly, there is no program that will magically make millions of dollars appear in your bank about without any work. Most of the best programs require an investment of as little as one dollar a day without the extra headaches of the company trying to up-sell useless products intending to rip you off. Good solid programs do not claim the amount of possible money to be made, nor how easy it is to make money; there also are no huge hype gimmicks. Internet Marketing does take some time to get the system in Place before any money is made and these are the successful programs where having no investment is OK.
You will only become successful when you decide to learn the methods and skills and put forth some effort. Good luck you.
It was just about a year ago. I couldn't sleep. Little wonder, I was jobless for the first time in eight years and I wasn't even sure if I was eligible for unemployment. Nothing like a little bit of stress to keep the bed bugs from biting. So I'm laying on the couch worried about silly little things like my upcoming mortgage payment when suddenly the answer to all my prayers came on TV.
Jeff Paul's Shortcuts to Internet Millions
Who wouldn't want to live the life of a rock star surrounded by bikini clad babes lounging around your very own and extremely lavish swimming pool? I could almost smell the chlorine as I indulged in the dalliance of imagining a barely conceivable lifestyle. What can I say? It was 4 a.m.
Wow! For just $39.95, I can have ten “3 Clicks to Cash” websites and everything I need to become an internet millionaire. So what do you really get for your $39.95 plus $14 shipping and handling and an additional $39.95 monthly membership fee?
10 “Three Clicks to Cash” Money Making Websites: You can get affiliate links for these identical websites from Clickbank.com right now for free.
Quick Start Guide DVD: This is a twenty minute infomercial with absolutely no content to it. It's nothing more than up sell for a personalized internet mentoring program.
Shortcut To Internet Millions DVD: This DVD is an offline resource guide. There is admittedly a lot of information contained here. It includes a 450 page PDF that covers subjects such as DVD warehousing, product manufacturing, and drop shipping. This would be a great resource for a savvy entrepreneur looking to mass market his own product but has little practical application for the internet beginner.
Quick Start Guide Manual: This is the aspiring entrepreneurs “Bible” to internet millions. The entire manual is only 28 pages long. Roughly 10 of those pages are devoted to driving traffic to your website. 10 Pages!
Driving traffic to your website is the life blood of any internet business. I could give you 100 websites right now stuffed full of must have products and you won't make a dime if you can't get anyone to them. This was nothing more than a gloss over of what should have been the most comprehensive part of the package.
The Cash On Demand & Automated Income Manuals: These two manuals are 102 pages of theory with once again no practical application. They cover different ways of making income, list building, continuity sites, membership sites, etc… The manuals explain different ways of making money online but then fail to follow through on teaching you exactly how to do it.
100 Ways to Make Money Online Manual: This 84 page manual covers 100 ways to make money online. Think about it. I'll say it again, 84 pages about 100 ways to make money online. How in depth do you think this can be?
Why not just say, “Dude, you can sale stuff on eBay. Ok, that's one. And, oh yeah, you can Blog. That's two.” Give me a break.
The Flyer: The first thing you see when you open the package is a large flyer with a 1-800 number on it. This flyer urges you to call immediately to receive personalized internet mentoring.
The Old Bait and Switch Routine
Jeff Paul's Shortcut to Internet millions is designed to accomplish one thing and one thing alone. The objective is for you to pick up the phone and call the 1-800 number. Once you do, you'll find yourself on the line with a professional telemarketer whose job it is to convince you to invest $5-15,000 in your internet business.
And what happens if you don't pick up the phone? They call you, and proceed to tell you that the only way to guarantee your online success is through their personal mentoring program.
So what exactly is Jeff Paul's Shortcut to Internet Millions? Those of us who are in the business of making money online would call it as we see it.
A Squeeze Page In A Box
Now here's the most ironic thing about Jeff Paul's program. If you do a Google search on Jeff Paul right now, you will find an entire website devoted to testimonials about Jeff Paul's system. Each and every one of these testimonials is true. How do I know?
Do you remember William McCorkle? In his late night infomercials, McCorkle hyped himself as a self-made millionaire having made all his money from the “real estate secrets” he was willing to share with you. His infomercials showed him and his wife, Chantal, in mega-mansions, driving luxury cars and standing in front of a helicopter with his name emblazoned on it. All of these high priced items were leased for the infomercials. The testimonials of people attesting to McCorkle's system making them rich were presented by paid actors.
William and Chantal McCorkle are currently serving 18 years in federal penitentiary for multiple fraud changes. Just like in the McCorkles' case, each and every testimonial given on an infomercial must be verifiable or its creator is subject to federal prosecution.
The Testimonials
Here's the catch. These testimonials are from people who have invested in the personal mentoring programs, not from Jeff Paul's beginner kit. Selling testimonials is a very lucrative business. These mentoring programs are not out to rob you of thousands of dollars of your hard earned money. They do indeed guide you through the process of niche market research. They specialize in helping you to design niche websites and then optimizing them so you do indeed make money online. Then they turn around and sell your success testimonial to the same kind of programs that got you to shell out your $39.95 in the first place. While this practice is ethically questionable, it is not illegal. It is, in fact, a multi-million dollar industry.
Am I saying that not a single one of these testimonials are actually from peoples' success stories with Jeff Paul's Shortcut to Internet Millions? No, I am not.
The Boy Who Cried Wolf
Just to keep things fair and honest, there is something you must realize if you are new to the online business world. Roughly 90% of the review or scam websites are brought to you courtesy of unscrupulous internet marketers who are willing to thrash some else's program in order to convince you to buy the one they are promoting. If you read a scam article that then goes on to tell you what worked for them, take that review with a grain of salt. If, on the other hand, you find yourself reading a personal account warning you to avoid a certain program that does not involve a sales pitch; Buyer Beware!
The Lesson to be Learned Here: Although it is indeed possible to become a multi-millionaire online, you probably won't get there by investing $39.95 in a work at home program.
