Our current economic conditions have caused many financial hardships for many people.  You can learn how to make money with foreclosure cleanouts, thus helping your financial crisis.

Companies have been forced to downsize leaving many people without jobs and the job market with less available options.  People are faced with working more than one job, and perhaps a woman who was a “stay at home mom” is forced back into the job force.

People who have been laid off and are unable to find a replacement job may have to take an early retirement.  It is very difficult to meet expenses on what one makes on Social Security.

I want to share a business opportunity that is helping many.  People are finding they are able to  supplement their Social Security, and others are earning enough to meet their expenses.  They are also enjoying the flexibility of having their own business.  Would that be something that would appeal to you?

You might have already heard of this program.  It has been seen on Oprah, CBS, PBS and CNN.  You will receive a 265 page training manual to give you all of the information you will need to make money with foreclosure cleanouts.  You will be given a step by step blueprint on every aspect of what you need to do to be successful.

I know that it is sad to think of the families that are losing their properties to foreclosures, but you can be in the position to profit from their loss.  You will be learning from someone that has over 12 years in this industry.  Perhaps you will be in the position to share this opportunity with someone that will enable them to save their home from foreclosure.

You will be shown how to make full-time earnings from part-time hours and given a complete blueprint for success.  Currently, as you are well aware, there is a tremendous amount of foreclosures and mortgage companies are in need of your services.  The mortgage companies and banks want to protect their investment.  When a property they generate a work order.  Why not be on the other side of that work order?

If you are interested in building a REAL business you are in the right place.  This is not a get rich quick scheme.  You will be shown the proper steps to take to make money with foreclosure cleanouts. It is up to you to take those steps.

This program will provide you with a long term solution to your financial success.

I wish you great success.

Time waits for no man, or woman!!  You have heard me say that procrastination can steal our motivation and dreams.  I am not about to let that happen.  It feels so wonderful to be able to be back and sharing here on my blog.

For the past few months this internet marketing grandma has been dealing with an over abundance of technical problems. I must say, I have learned much.   Thank God it appears that everything is back in working order and I now can forge ahead.  I am eternally grateful to everyone who has helped me in my great time of need.

Today has been a day involving the wearing of many hats.  It amazes me how much we can cram into a day.  Meetings, half a dozen phone calls, Skype calls, making a bank deposit, dropping off and picking up items at the library, a trip to JoAnn’s for materials I needed for my jewelry business, a stop at the grocery store, and last but not least making a custom bracelet.

I find in times when I am stretched in my energy and emotions that I can always come up with a smile and happy heart knowing that I am helping others.  That is true with whatever we find ourselves doing.  So no matter how many hats you wear, always wear a hat of “love”.  I always feel I help myself when I help others.

I recently came across a new internet marketing business opportunity that really reaches out and helps people with their internet marketing needs.  This new opportunity is Prosperity Rising.  Would you believe that you can join and have a lifetime Gold Membership and audio/visual conference room that holds up to 300 people for FREE!!

Prosperity Rising is a new site that says it guarantees more CONVERTING web visitors and online advertising with very little effort or cost.  So I decided to put it to the test…

My first impression was the site looks professional and clean, with an attractive look and feel.  It is easy to read and understand.  Joining the site was easy and painless–they do offer 2 upgrade options but they are not required to gain the benefits.

The Members’ Area is very well laid out and intuitive–I could figure out what to do after only a few minutes and was able to get up and running in less than 5 minutes.  Inside the site, you create links and ads–the links you simply enter any URL links you use into the generator and it transforms them into “Prosperity Rising” links.  You create ads for anything you want to promote using the Prosperity Rising Ad Generator, which is very easy to use.  You can create as many links and as many ads as you like.  And they are organized in a logical way–links are displayed in the order you create them but also your 5 most recent links appear on the main page for quick reference.  Also, since the link generator is the tool you’ll use most, it is also right at the top of the main page when you login.  Very smart!

After you’ve created at least 1 link and 1 ad you can start to generate traffic.  Just use and promote the new Prosperity Rising link instead of the original source link you had.  Every time the Prosperity Rising link is clicked, the page loads followed by a cool slide-up ad window at the bottom.  It displays an ad PLUS an image with your affiliate link that goes back to Prosperity Rising.  So if anyone clicks the Prosperity Rising image they see the site, and if they signup they become your referral.  It’s a great viral feature because you can build referrals without even trying to just by using the site.

Now every time the ad window displays (your Prosperity Rising links get clicked) you earn credits that get YOUR ad displayed in the ad windows when other members’ links get clicked.  So the more clicks, the more times your ads get displayed.

And this works virally–meaning as you make referrals into Prosperity Rising (either by promoting it or just using it and visitors click the Prosperity Rising image on the ad window to join) you also earn ad credits on THEIR link clicks.  And this works up to 5 levels deep.  So you can create a massive amount of free ad views and web traffic by referring others to Prosperity Rising also.

I didn’t get to test the full effect of a big downline yet (I just got the tool) but I can tell you the rest of the site works exactly as stated–my links got clicked, I earned credits, and my ads got displayed.  Prosperity Rising even tracked my results so I know how many clicks and how many ad displays.  That was an impressive unadvertised extra feature.

There is one more benefit and feature which might be the best of them all–downline emailing.  You can email your downline with offers, promotions, or whatever you like, and here is where Prosperity Rising really shines.  They took time to make the emailing often enough that it’s valuable as a user, but no so often that it’s a burden to your downline.  But the best part about this feature (and actually the credit earning too) is that it tells you exactly how long until you can mail again.  Now THAT’s cool.

Overall I have to say I am impressed with Prosperity Rising.  It is simple yet powerful, and delivers on its promises.  Highly recommended to anyone who wants to increase traffic and advertising.

If you think you would like to be part of a community of like-minded people , receive awesome training and be provided an arsenal tools to help you succeed, please check out Prosperity Rising.  Don’t forget you can sign up for FREE!  Keith Carberry, one of the co-owners, has a meeting Monday through Friday at 10:00 AM EST called “Coffee With Keith.” Please join us.  You are always welcome.  This time is spent answering questions and sharing all of the tools you have in Prosperity Rising.

I hope you are happy and successful and I look forward to your return.

Have an awesome day!

Blessings,

Judy

As an online grandparent trying to succeed in internet marketing I am reaching the conclusion that it is time to follow my dreams!  Internet marketing is a highly infiltrated industry.  I have been diligently working various businesses for approximately 7 years now.  I am about to share how I am going to pursue what I have always wanted to do with my life.

So often I think we get caught up in other people’s “causes”.  Nowadays there are a lot of causes on the internet.  I am not afraid to put in a lot of effort and time into a project to make it work.  I am ready to take what I have learned and use it to launch out on a journey to accomplish what I have wanted to do since I graduated high school.

Many years ago I had a dream of what I wanted to do with my life.  I took a course in learning how to write children’s books.  Writing has always been a passion of mine.  It could be children’s books, poetry, a “How to” article or even relating events in my life in “My Life‘s Story“.  I am looking forward to incorporating the wonderful lives of my grandchildren into “Heavenly Critters”, and documenting the path of the lifetime I have traveled.

I have spent over 45 years in the corporate world as an executive administrative assistant and my latest position was as a document control specialist with a pharmaceutical company.  Clinical Trials sometimes fail and corporations are forced to downsize and positions are eliminated.  I was unsuccessful in my search to find a new position and decided to work-full time in an online business opportunity I was doing part- time.

Since then I have retired and moved onto other online opportunities.  I was blessed to be introduced to the Crazy Foxes Marketing Group and learned much from other members who are experts in the industry.  They reached out and helped each other like I’ve never seen before. It was a true team community. One of the greatest outcomes from being in the Crazy Foxes was becoming a member in NPN – Global NPN.com.  I truly feel that this is the greatest secret on the internet.  NPN provides you with an amazing arsenal of networking tools to help you succeed in whatever online business you are working. You will be provided with great tutorials and videos. You can create capture pages, have multi-ad trackers, autoresponders, lead blasters downline mailers, and including, but not limited to, an affiliate system that will allow you to make a full time income.

I am grateful for NPN as it will be the means of income that will allow me to finally follow my dreams!  I can now devote my time and attention to writing children’s books, poetry and my life story.  I am extremely excited to have this opportunity.

I got to thinking when I realized that NPN was going to finance my future goals that if this was a fantastic opportunity for me that it could also help others finance their internet marketing endeavors.  Check NPN out and see how it can help pay for your other memberships and autoships.

I sincerely wish you the very best in whatever you do.  I know that you will find great success with NPN.

Until we meet again!

Being involved with online internet marketing, it goes without saying that when I have computer problems it brings my internet networking business to a halt.

I recently was involved in a nightmare situation involving my computer.  I know most of us have spent time on the phone with “technical support”.  Sometimes we can understand them, sometimes we can’t!  I had been having “crashing” problems with my laptop for 4 – 5 months.

One time I called HP technical support to get my problems resolved.  I spent about two hours on the phone  jumping through the hoops of the technician’s directions. I was instructed to take the memory out and switch everything around.  We did the hard drive system check and after all was said and done I was instructed to go forward with the  system restore process.  Whoa!!  I would lose everything on my laptop.  I am not a computer illiterate person and knew this could not be a good thing.  I asked if in fact everything would be wiped off and was told yes.  So this was not an option.  However, at this point, I could not even boot up my computer.  I called in with at least a working system, and ended up with a non-functioning laptop.

I was instructed that I now had to take my laptop to a computer repair place and have the files downloaded to a hard drive. I was not a happy person as I had paid $150.00 for a service contract and now was told that HP would not be responsible for the charges I was going to incur at PC101.   I took my laptop to PC101 and received great service, costing $150.00.  I was now able to download my files to an external hard drive I had purchased.

I used my laptop for a short time and again encountered the “crashing” problems.  I can’t even begin to tell you how many hours I spent on the phone with HP technical support.  One day alone I was on the phone twice totaling over 6 hours.  A complete system restore was done, after which time within a couple of hours the laptop crashed again.  Then the second time I called the technician remotely checked my system and told me there was no evidence of the laptop crashing.  Hence, was I just dreaming that I was having problems?

Within a couple of days my laptop was crashing an average of 10 or 12 times daily.  I called HP back and the technician checked the file and was thinking I was dreaming this problem up, I am sure.  He remotely took access of my laptop.  Voilá! I was not making these calls because I didn’t have anything better to do. While he was checking everything out the laptop crashed! The result of this call was getting authorization to send the laptop in for repair.  I was specifically told that the laptop would be either repaired, or replaced.

This was not the end of the story.  I was notified after HP received my laptop and checked things out.  I was told that my laptop was not repairable, and they would not replace it.  Seems there was extensive damage to the laptop.  I was not told  exactly what this damage was, other than the person mentioning in passing that it had spill damage.

As I am the only person that used this laptop I ended up calling the customer service department.  I had requested photos showing the damage and they told me they were also requesting photos.  After a couple of days I was called and told that they had misdiagnosed the laptop and they would be repairing it and I would have it back the following week.

I did receive my laptop back.  Upon opening the box I was dismayed, but not surprised to find that yes the laptop did in fact have spill damage.  However, it was not damage I had created.  I was back on the phone and ended up speaking with a Case Manager, David, that reviewed my folder.  He asked me to send him photo documentation on the spill damage.  He found it strange that nowhere in my service records was “spill damage” mentioned.  My daughter took excellent photos and I emailed these to David.

To make an already long story shorter, David called me and went over specifications matching, or exceeding those of my original laptop, to build a new laptop.  I received the new laptop in about two weeks. It is absolutely awesome.

I am a firm believer that in addition to making the complaining calls or reports, we need to give the kudos when so deserved.  I just want to say, “Thank you, David for restoring my faith in HP and for the fabulous service and execution of this case.”

And on a last note, when you encounter a problem, no matter what it is, don’t give up.  Victory is just around the corner.

Until next time,

Judy Conway

Murmuring is no better than mutiny in the heart; it is a rising up against God. When the sea is rough and unquiet, it casts forth nothing but foam: when the heart is discontented, it casts forth the foam of anger, impatience, and sometimes little better than blasphemy. Murmuring is nothing else but the scum which boils off from a discontented heart.” – Thomas Watson

This is truly a profound statement. My daughter and I both love quotes that can make a difference in our lives and the way we look at things. This is really one of those quotes.

As a grandparent endeavoring to become successful in a home based internet marketing business I have just come out of two weeks that I feel blessed not to have resorted to “murmuring”! Believe me there were times I was tempted.

Two weeks ago I was showered with grave computer problems. Problems had been mounting over the past 3 – 4 months. As the result of a constantly crashing/shutting down laptop. I spent MANY hours on the phone with Technical Support. I really think they thought I was just a complaining person who didn’t recognize crashing from videos on YouTube! That was until one of the service technicians was remotely checking out the system and it crashed while he was doing his thing.  That was their “Aha moment” and they decided it needed to be sent in to be repaired.

I have another desktop PC that had decided to separate ways with my Internet Service. When my laptop was shipped off I resorted to checking out the problems with this computer. After spending about an hour on the phone with my ISP Provider I was told my computer was not communicating with the network. (As if I didn’t already know that!) I ended up having to take the PC to my local computer repair. Within an hour and $90.00 later I was back online. Thank you Charles!

Now I am playing catch up! It is amazing how far behind you can get without being able to access the internet. It is not only a financial burden, but it is a productivity problem.

I am most grateful to have recently signed up with PM Marketing/ NetworkLeads. Thanks to their phenomenal services my business was in good hands and leads were taken care of and emails were sent out on my behalf keeping things going. I am truly impressed with not only the numerous services, but the quality of service they provide.

My primary business is Ultra International. I must say that even being without computer access I was able to call in for training meetings and opportunity calls. The websites that are provided kept things running smooth as silk. People that were being directed there from PM Marketing/ Network Leads were able to sign up and business went on as usual. My biggest inconvenience was not being able to call my prospects and new members. To me that is extremely important.

As I am digging out from all I have to catch up on, I just wanted to take a moment to say that in the midst of our hardest situations, we can always find a blessing. To often we focus on the problem instead of the opportunity it is presenting to us.

I am hoping for a quick solution to my laptop problem. In the meantime I am grateful for my “old” PC.

Hope your days are trouble free. If you encounter a problem be sure to look for the blessing!

Blessings,

Judy Conway

How valuable are you? I am sure you are immensely valuable. You are of great value not only to yourself, but to your family and friends and people you have yet to meet. It doesn’t matter if you are an internet marketing grandparent like me, or someone just starting out in the online marketing business, you have value. We can all fit together and help each other achieve success.

Recently I became involved with Ultra International. Ultra is an international company that provides solutions for health, home and wealth. Their products are environmentally friendly and chemically free. The containers are all biodegradable too. Not only are our personal “temples” protected and enhanced by these products, but so is our planet.

On November 1st, 2008 Ultra International launched its direct-to-consumer marketing division with the most explosive compensation plan in the industry. A newly developed spa quality line of SAFE and GREEN home care and personal care products called Pure Selects™ make up the product inventory.

Ultra is a 20-year old, rock solid, debt free company with executives on the staff providing experience in operating a highly successful consumer products manufacturing and distribution company and over thirty-five years of formulating in the areas of over-the-counter drugs, medical devices, cosmetics and consumer products. This provides a regulatory and compliance background necessary for the Ultra International’s fast paced environment.

As it says in the introduction to Ultra’s Products, “If we treated our cars like we treat our bodies, how long would they last?” That is a good question to ponder. We do need to give our bodies a fighting chance and join the Wellness Revolution. Ultra provides three products to assist in achieving this goal.

Mind is a shot of Health, Focus and Energy. It is a superdrink that is charged with the strongest natural antioxidants available, enhanced with over 120 plant derived vitamins and minerals and utilizes an enriched patented aloe vera delivery system. Mind has an estimated ORAC Value of 4500+.

Body is a Meal Replacement extremely low in fat, calories and carbs. It contains a high level of protein and nutrients. Each serving of Body delivers over 100 plant derived vitamins and minerals, critical digestive enzymes, essential probiotics and effective appetite suppressant known as Pure South African Hoodia. I can personally add to the above description that Body has helped in ridding me of my knee joint pain, hip and leg pain and lower back pain. I not only have lost a weight, but more exciting I’ve lost pain. This is a great product in this economy. Why spend money eating out, when you can have a delicious Body shake and be healthier?

Soul, is a Superfood symbiotic blend of the most critically essential and extremely beneficial nutritional ingredients known to man. The ingredients in Soul give your body a fighting chance. One teaspoon is equivalent to the daily recommended 10 full servings of the most essential and powerful fruits and vegetables your body needs.

Last, but certainly not least are the Home Care and Personal Care Products. These products are some of the highest quality and safest products in the market today. They are fragrance free, dye free, 100% green (biodegradable within 30 days) and free of harmful chemicals.

You are valuable, your family is valuable and your friends are valuable. We could all achieve better health if we utilized Ultra’s products and joined the Wellness Revolution!

And on another note, once you have achieved better health, you will also have achieved better wealth with Ultra and be able to enjoy the years ahead. To me wealth isn’t worth anything if you haven’t got the health to enjoy it.

Here’s to your health and success!

One of the many blessings of being a grandparent is that we have an endless supply of memories. I especially like the internet because through blogging it provides an enormous audience to share these memories with.

I became a single mom when my two daughters were 9 and 10 years old. They truly were the glue that held my life together. Out of many tough times, we had a lot of fun! They were the tools that helped me become successful back then.

Today as I was working and searching for the right tools to accomplish a project I am working on I started reminiscing about my past. I was thinking how much better our lives would’ve been if internet marketing, as we know it now, was in existence back then. The time frame I am referring to is the early 80’s . I would have been able to work at home and improved our quality of life.

One time in particular comes to mind. It was the 4th of July and my girls were out roller skating in our neighborhood. I had just gotten out of the shower and was drying my hair when my youngest daughter came running in hysterics “Come quick, come quick!” Her sister had fallen and she told me there is blood everywhere.

Now what follows is a description of a dedicated mother. I tore out of the house and was running after her up the street before I realized all I had on was my bath towel. For a split second I thought, “Oh dear, there goes the neighborhood.” I found my daughter and she had done a job on her face, chipped her front tooth and banged her body up pretty badly. As the days unfolded, she resembled a roller derby queen for sure! This was before knee pads, helmets and all the protective gear were in use. I gathered her up in my arms and took her home. I was praying that my neighbors had missed the excitement and the inadequately dressed mom.

Whether you are a grandparent working an internet marketing business, or a very accomplished person who has been doing this for years, I have found a wealth of tools in one location. I would like to share this with you. With NPN you don’t have to work harder….just work smarter!!

Global NPN.com has marketing tools that would cost a fortune elsewhere. You can join NPN for $10.75 a month. You not only have access to a capture page creator, a full ad tracker system, a set and forget recruiter, a multi-downline building system to mention a few,  but an unmatched referral system that you will want to check out for sure. There are also great tutorials and training tools throughout the system.

I hope this information on NPN will be helpful and provide you with the tools to help you become successful.

Blessings,

I apologize for not posting daily and promise to do better. Is it difficult for other people to keep up with their blogging?  Perhaps it because I am an internet marketing grandparent trying to learn all the skills I can and become the best I possibly can at my online business? There just doesn’t seem to be enough hours in a day to get done all I want to do.

The buzz words nowadays seem to be “Social Networking”. There are many venues out there. We have Twitter, Facebook, MySpace, Ning, Sta.rtUp.Biz, Qassia, and LinkedIn just to mention a few.

Truthfully, I find it difficult to keep caught up with them all. Just recently there was a fabulously written article in our local newspaper entitled, “Facebook is ruining my life”. It was written by a talented gentleman. He mentioned that Facebook does a great job at helping long lost friends find each other. However, he just turned 38 and in a 12 hour period he had received 9 pokes, was tagged in 5 photos, hit with 2 snowflakes and had a virtual” beer with one of his college friends.  He went on to say that he doesn’t have time to keep up with all of this.  After all, he has his career, mortgage to pay and family to look after!

This article set my brain in gear.  I personally use Social Networking in my online network marketing business.  I will confess that I too have located some long lost friends from years gone by on Facebook.  I have noticed that a lot of people are baring their souls, sharing their spouse’s faults and other personal aspects of their lives.  I don’t think my husband would have wanted me to share his faults with the entire internet world!  What do you think?

Another thing came to mind.  What does this communicating online do to our personal communication skills?  I mean our “reach out and touch someone” skills.  I used to think that emails had replaced the sharing of  our heartfelt emotions with each other either on the phone, or in person.  I recently had a friend tell me that he doesn’t use email.  He said to me, “An email doesn’t tell me how Judy is really feeling.  I need to call her and talk to her in person.”

I do think that Social Networks, such a Twitter, provide a  great service to the business community providing information on software, programs,networking tips, upcoming meetings and business solutions.

We can read people’s feelings on a Social Network page, but do we really know their innermost feelings?  I don’t understand people communicating with each other while sitting in the same room on a Social Network, but being unable to communicate personally with each other.  I apologize if you thing I am wrong in thinking this way.  These thoughts are only my feelings and opinions.

I am interested in your thoughts on this subject.  Please take a minute and leave a comment.  How do you feel about a child being on MySpace communicating his/her feelings, but unable to communicate verbally in person with their friends, siblings, parents. etc.?

In summing it up, I think that there is a place in our life for Social Networking, but just like everything else in our lives, we need to stay balanced.  We need to exercise ALL of our skills!

Until next time,

Judy Conway

He said, “I don’t know how Judy is really feeling in an email.” I need to call and talk to her in person.

We can read people’s thoughts, but do we really have a true reading on their innermost feelings? I find it difficult to hear about people being in the same room and communicating on with each other on Facebook, but they can’t communicate verbally to each other.

I do think that, for example Twitter and other business related social networks are providing a great service in sharing programs, newest software, upcoming meetings, and business solutions.

I am interested in everyone’s input on their feelings on Social Networking. Please take a moment and comment. How do you feel about a child involved on Facebook or MySpace and sharing their thoughts, but being unable to communicate in person with either their parents, siblings or others?

In summing it all up. Social Networking is like anything else. We need to stay balanced and remember our other skills!

Until next time,
