The 2nd Secret Used By Work At Home Scam Artists


Self-seeking work at home opportunities website owners
are doing everything they can do to seduce you into
buying their bogus home business Internet products.

And you're going to fall for it unless you've been
told their secrets beforehand.

The trick I'm going to tell you about today gets me
in
trouble. I have a lot of people mad at me because I
tell this secret. But that's okay. They can be mad.

Honestly I don't care. What I do care about is protecting
the people who visit my blog (like you) from work at home
business scams and from being fooled by the tricks of
copywriters.

So do you want to know what the killer clincher at the
bottom of nearly every effective sales letter is? This is
the little seductive lie that seals the deal.

At this point the copywriter has slowly removed all of
your objections, making you think that you'd be an idiot
if you didn't buy the incredible work at home business idea!

He has you on the precipice, you're thinking about giving
it a try. All the copywriter needs to do is give you the
slightest little nudge and you go over the edge. And here
it comes:

It's called the Trick Deadline.

I know you've seen it. It takes on many forms. Here are
some examples:

"You must buy by midnight tonight or I can't guarantee
this price."

"We are definitely going back to our original price in the
next few days, so take advantage of this 50% discount NOW."

"We have sold thousands of copies of our package at the
$167 price. This experimental $49 price will only last
through the end of the day today."

Let me tell you, when you see these statements don't
believe them for a minute. The price is going to be the
exact same when you come back a week later or even a month
later. It's just a tricky sales tactic to get you to buy now.

The reason they do this is because they want your money
now. They have brought you through the sales funnel and
you will never be more susceptible to buying than you are
right at this minute. So they want to push you over
the edge.

My recommendation would be look around a bit. Read some
reviews of the product first. DO NOT trust the reviews that
took all their information from the sales letter of the
website that is being reviewed. You can read all that for
yourself.

Instead, you need reviews of the actual ebook or service.
Reviews written by people who have actually read and
implemented the strategies and tools that are revealed in
the ebook.

One last thing. And I know that this is going to sound
hokey. But I have to say it. The trick deadline is used
by just about EVERY website out there. Even a few that
I have recommended on my website have done it.

I don't like it. It's regrettable. And I have talked to
the product owners about that, but they just tell me that
the deadline is so motivating that they do it to get their
sales up. They tell me that they believe in their product
so much that they don't have a problem motivating people
to buy in this way.

So that's that. I can't do anything about it except warn you
not to fall for it. Just know that you have been armed with
knowledge about the trick deadline. You don't have to fall
for it.

I really just don't want you to fall into the trap of
thinking that you just happened to stumble into a
once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and you have to make your
decision right now to get it at a particularly good price.

You've got the knowledge now. Don't fall for the tricks.

Definitely take a look at my Top 10 Work At Home Opportunities.
Then you will be armed with real knowledge about the best
products before you invest your money and time.

That's all for today. In my next post I'll give you Work At
Home Scam Secret #3. This one is the most effective one
of all. It's also the most illegal one of all.

Make the rest of your day great!

The 1st Secret Used By Work At Home Scam Artists



What I am going to be revealing to you is exactly what
I wish someone would have shown me when I started
looking for a REAL work-at-home opportunity.

I got scammed so many times it wasn't funny. I DID find
a great solution for me finally, but I wasted a lot of
time and money trying to find it. That's what I want to
spare you.

There's no reason for you to be scammed too. Not when
I have the information you need to avoid it.

But... No one else on the Internet reveals the
information I am about to tell you.

What you are being subjected to at most work-at-home
opportunity sites is a very subtle form of seduction.
I know that sounds strange, but let me show you over
the next few days what is happening.

The First Secret of Seduction is simply this:
Knowing that you are being scammed.

You are being seduced into pulling your credit card
out of your wallet and willingly paying $97 or
whatever for an opportunity to escape the rat race.
It will cost you dearly if you don't know about the
con they are playing on you.

The first thing you need to understand is the
power of
persuasive writing.

Are you familiar with what a copy-writer does? He or
she is the professional writer who writes all the text
of the web pages of all the business opportunity
websites that you find on the Internet.

Care to guess how much they get paid? Some copywriters
are paid as much as $20,000 to write ONE webpage. This
page is called the "sales letter" and it is the first page you
see when you first go to a business opportunity site.

You know the kind of page I'm talking about. It's about 10
to 20 pages long. You feel like you've read a book when
you get to the bottom of it.

The reason they are paid so much is because they can
con most people into buying pretty much anything.

Don't think you're immune! You are not.

The tricks are so subtle--I guarantee you won't know how
they are making you want to buy, but you find yourself
wanting to believe that this is the way out of your
financial problems.

You think, maybe I can do this. It sounds easy... And
fast... And look at all these testimonials of other
people doing it...

You find yourself reaching for your credit card...

I'm serious. It's almost like hypnosis.

Let me ask you this, have you ever read one of those 10
page sales letters all the way to the bottom? If you're
like most of us, you have. And the reason you did that
is because that copywriter was successfully seducing you.
He or she conned you into wasting 30 minutes of your life.

Copywriters are just that good at what they do. The best
ones are offered HUGE contracts to develop the "copy" for
an entire website.

They write for both legitimate sites and scam sites. They
really don't care if the site they are writing for is scam
or not. As long as they get paid.

The copy-writer will work on a website's sales letter
page for weeks and fine tune every single sentence. The
objective is to build trust, hope and/or fear in you as
they move you down the "sales funnel."

If you are aware of this, you have a better chance of
protecting yourself against it. The copywriter is slowly
and methodically removing all your objections one by one
until you reach the bottom of the page.

And it is there that you are hit with the FINAL BLOW and
seduced into spending your money.

In my next blog posts I will give you other work at home
seduction scam secrets to look for before joining a work
at home program to avoid being a victim of scam artists.
Return to this blog over the next few days to get all
the secrets!

Oh yeah, do you want to know which work at home businesses
I found that will allow you to make a five figure income per
month working from home? The Top 10 Work At Home Review
is the real deal. I know, because I'm making money every day.

Make the rest of your day great!

Your friend in success,

Working From Home - It All Starts With A Dream



If you don't have a dream, how are you going to make
your dreams come true?

It all starts with a dream...

Let me tell you up front that if you do not have a dream,
you will not become a millionaire other than by winning
a game of chance. It's just too hard.

To make this kind of money you need to be laser-beam
focused, and you can't be that if you only have a half
hearted interest in what you are doing. You know this
is true.

How? Just look at some famous multi-millionaires who
still keep working ten or twelve hours a day, even
though they don't need the money.

Why do they do this? Because they have a passion for
what they do. They would probably do it without
payment!

Dreaming is a type of visualization.
It is visualization plus passion. These are the things that
you really want to be, to have or to do. If you do not
achieve these things over (say) the next ten years, you
are going to be seriously disillusioned and upset.

You should be able to write a list of six such things.
If you cannot think of a single one then you are most
unlikely ever to live a life of power and passion.
Also, your chances of making big money are vanishingly
small. If you like, this is your first reality check.

Can you think of a few things about which you are
passionate? One or two things which you care deeply
about? Just one would be a start.

Don't beat yourself up if you cannot immediately think
of something. It is hard to dream up a better life for
yourself due to the decades of negative conditioning
you have allowed yourself to accept.

How often did your teachers, parents and friends
encourage you to dream and ask you to share your vision
with them?

Approximately never? I thought so! How often did
someone shoot your fledgling dreams down in flames or
pour scorn upon them? Small wonder that your dreams are
not on public display.

As you continue your quest to work from home to
supplement your income or earn a full time income, you
must remain focus on your dream of being financially
independent.

Make the rest of your day great and keep dreaming big.

Your friend in success,

Phil

Seriously Do You Have What It Takes To Work From Home?



Successful people know that they must sacrifice
something today in order to achieve a lot more
tomorrow.

For years I denied to myself that this was one of the
secrets of becoming a millionaire, having a
successful work at home business or achieving
anything else of note for that matter.

I think the reason that I avoided naming this secret
was because I disliked the word 'discipline.' But there
isn't a better single word which adequately covers
this concept.

'Focused Will' is close, but that's two words. Single
words work better for concepts like these, so we're
stuck with 'discipline'.

In my discussions with other multi-millionaires, and
other work at home individuals, this was the word they
used most frequently when trying to explain their
success. I became really excited when I finally accepted
this. A lot of things fell into place. This was the key
concept which differentiated the rich from the poor; the
successful from the failures.

Discipline.

Without it, you're one of the 95%+ who fail at working
from home. Remember, this is not my judgment on
others - I have no right to judge. These people are failures
by their own admission and definitions. If you were to ask
them if they feel they have succeeded in their work at
home business, or failed, they would readily confess to
having failed, although they would, of course, blame factors
outside of themselves for this failure.

With discipline, you have a good chance of rising above
the crowd, making money from your online business and
retiring early as a wealthy man or woman.

Everything I write is aimed at preventing you from
reaching retirement with nothing. If you reach
retirement as a pauper dependent upon charity, having
lived a life of quiet desperation, frustrated, never
having achieved anything much of note, never having
dreamed, never beaten a real challenge, then your life is a
failure by any standards, but certainly by your own. Of course,
if you are happy in your powerlessness and poverty, then none
of this matters.

Are you a disciplined person, in general?

There are hundreds of indicators of a disciplined mind,
not one of which is essential, but put together, they
start to add up to a pattern.

Can you get up in the morning? Are your shoes clean,
your hair and teeth brushed? Are your car and house
tidy? Are your personal papers (gas bills, bank
statements, etc.) filed in some sort of reasonable
order? Do you turn out a good job of work, even when
nobody is looking?

I could think of five hundred more indicators, but you
get the idea. It's up to you to look at your life and
make an honest assessment of your level of discipline
or lack of it.

Again, I am not judging you. Live how you want to live,
- it's your life. But if you want a life of power and wealth,
then I can guarantee you will not get it if your life is
anything like I have described.

Discipline is vital.

People often marvel at my success When I meet them
face to face. However I often say something like this:

"There's nothing really special about me. I'm just an
average guy made good. You could do what I have done."

I say this to try and remove the 'guru factor.' You
can't get people to emulate you if they think you're
the incarnation of a sun-god!

So I tell them I'm just a regular guy, and that's the
truth. Yes, I have an education and a certain amount of
common-sense. But one of the main reason why I have
had success working at home is because I have discipline.

Often, the people sitting opposite me do not have
discipline, or at least they haven't made it central to
their lives because, heck, it takes discipline to be
disciplined! I can see the lack of discipline in the
way they dress, the way they sit, and the way they
talk.

In order for you to start a work at home business, and to
make money and have success in your online venture,
you must decide to discipline yourself. You will not get
rich overnight despite what some websites promise
unless you first discipline yourself to devote time, energy,
effort and money into your work at home business.

Make the rest of your day great and discipline yourself.

Your friend in success,

Phil
