I know there are times when it seems like whatever we are doing is not reaping the rewards that we anticipated in online business internet marketing. It would not matter if you were a grandparent or not, we nonetheless find ourselves wondering what we are doing wrong. I am here to say…you are not alone!!

One of the most important things that I have found is to make sure you are involved with like-minded people. That makes a big difference. I have been blessed to be part of a group of extremely helpful online marketing business entrepeneurs. I have learned much and continue to learn on a daily basis. If we reach the point where we think we “know it all” we might as well give up. There are always new techniques and programs to be learned. 

It is nice to realize that even at 63 and being a grandparent involved in a home based internet marketing business opportunity I can learn how to be a valuable team player. It is self gratifying that I can contribute to other people’s success. That is what makes team work so invaluable. We really all do have our own gifts to contribute to help one another. I love the pay it forward philosophy. 

It goes without saying that you need to do your due diligence to be sure that the company you are anticipating working with is all that it says it is. As we all know, either by personal experience, or by what others have told us, there are a lot of scams on the internet. 

Get involved with a business opportunity that has a product that is desired by the masses. It is most difficult to get others involved in something they have no need of. 

I have recently gotten involved in a business opportunity that is environment friendly, helps with weight loss and overall health and also provides chemically free household products. Ultra International’s Pure Selects collection of Home Care and Personal Care Products are some of the highest quality and safest products on the market today. I recently heard that during the time of our last election 100 mothers were surveyed as to whether if they knew the products they were using for household cleaning, or personal cleanliness contained harmful ingredients to their family if they would change what they were buying. 94% said they would. To me that is a no brainer. Who would willingly put their children, or family in general, in harm’s way if they knew what they were doing was harmful. I quit smoking, cold turkey, because I didn’t want to think I was harming my children’s lives. And I smoked three packages a day!! 

The point I am trying to make is after the company checks out, make sure the products check out. And last, but certainly not least, investigate the compensation plan. 

If you are comfortable with your findings, then roll up your sleeves and get to work. 

If I can do this, I am sure you can. There are awesome tools and individuals involved in internet marketing that are more than happy to help you find success. Be weary of individuals that are going to charge you an arm or a leg and ask you to mortgage your first born. For those individuals I have one word ….RUN!! 

When the going gets rough it helps me to remember that I am working at MY home based business opportunity. I can at any moment, put what I am doing on hold and go play with my grandchildren. That is invaluable to me. My family is most important to me. Being involved in an internet marketing business allows me to enjoy my Golden Years. I only wish that I had the opportunity to do what I am doing now when my children were young. I could have been at home baking cookies when they came home from school. 

I truly wish you all the best in whatever you choose to do.

I am a 62 year old grandparent who recently retired. I want to take this opportunity to pass along some information and tips that I have learned over the past couple of years regarding online internet marketing businesses. If you currently have a home based business and are finding success working online …then I applaud you. Keep up the good work! With the economy like it is with layoffs and people being forced to retire you might be contemplating starting a home based business. If that is the case please read on.

The most important thing I have learned is NOT to believe everything you are told. Be sure to do your due diligence on a business before you leap into it. Make sure that you know how the program works. Be sure that you are going to have sincere support and training from your leaders. Get a feel for whether or not this is going to cost you a lot of money to work. If it is … RUN!! You would be surprised at the hidden costs of some internet marketing businesses. Take into consideration you might have advertising costs, costs for leads, etc.

I spent 2-1/2 years with online business and spent a lot of my retirement fund trying to make it work. I took the training, attended meetings, followed the instructions of my upline leaders, sent emails, newsletters, and phoned people around the world and worked some days as much at 16 hours. When all was said and done I was in debt and not making enough money to meet my expenses with this business. Hence the warning, “Know what you have in store.” I finally faced the fact that this program was not going to work and I quit.

I am here to say, I am so very thankful that I did not give up because of one bad experience. A friend introduced me to the Crazy Foxes Marketing Group. This is a group of like-minded people consisting of great knowledgeable leaders and other internet marketers that are working at becoming successful. This is a group of people with integrity, who are ethical, honest, positive and have a good work ethic. It is sad to say, but these qualities are not always easy to find with the businesses out there on the internet.

I have been in this group for about 5 months and I have learned so much more than I learned over the past 2-1/2 years. I was not a stranger to computers, but I have learned skills that were the farthest from my dreams. It is not true that “you can’t teach an old dog new tricks.”The Crazy Foxes Marketing Group has awesome training and they direct you to programs that will help you become successful. And yes, there are many grandparents! They show you the correct, professional way to do things. I just can not say enough good things about the Crazy Foxes!! Please check them out and make your own decision after reading what you find there.

No matter what the product or service is that you are selling on the internet in the Crazy Foxes you will have access to the tools that will help you succeed.

This is just a short list of the programs/tools that I have learned about working with the Crazy Foxes. These tools are not just for grandparents that want to succeed at their home based business, but all internet marketers will find value in these.

Veretekk: Veretekk is a powerful tool. Sign up for a Free Silver Account. This is our marketing system, our lead generator, SEO producer, and more… plus it is ONE of our primary income sources.

New Plan Network: NPN is a real income generator, and I’m talking SERIOUS income, NPN and its products are the internet’s best kept secret. From Capture Page creator, to the elite multisponder auto responder system, these are absolute must haves for every internet marketer.

Traffic Hoopla: Free system – Traffic Hoopla keeps on top of the best of the best Traffic Exchanges and Safelists. You join Traffic Hoopla and then join the highest producing traffic generators on the web, all managed from this central location.

Protracker Plus: ProTrackerPlus is the ad tracking program recommended by the $200 Per Day Blueprint. It allows you to track your hits, conversions and more, and you get paid to refer others.

Social networking. Twitter and Facebook are only two of many available. You not only develop relationships but you learn about powerful tools, and are able to share your knowledge with others. It is a great feeling to be able to “pay it forward”.

If you are like me, as a grandparent you want to be able to spend quality time with your family. You have paid your dues in the work force! I love the fact that my schedule is flexible working online. I can pick and choose the hours I want to work or “play”. That is very important to me after working in the corporate world with set schedules. Whether it be watching my grandkids play Wii, or trying to learn some of the “moves”, or enjoying an awesome dinner my daughter has prepared, or just being with them….life can not get much better than that.

Having a home based business will also help you when it comes to paying your taxes to the IRS. An office at home allows you to take many deductions which translates to money in your pocket. I know personally that the stock market has taken a big chunk out of my retirement fund. I am grateful finding ways to make the money I do have go further. There are many publications available to give you the regulations on what you can, or can not deduct.

As I mentioned above, The Crazy Foxes have several business opportunities listed on their site. One will save you money on things you are already doing, and also provide you with many benefits. The other will provide you with solutions for your home, health and wealth. Perhaps one of these opportunities will be helpful to you.

I do wish you healthy, happy and prosperous Golden Years!

Blessings,

Judy Conway

With the economy the way it is, I think we are going to see a lot more people thinking about home-based internet businesses.

Benefits abound in executing your business from your home:

• You can work from the comfort of your own home.

• You do not have the expense of gas for your car.

• Less maintenance expense for your car, tires, oil changes, etc. (and general wear and tear)

• An aspect sometimes missed you can also save on your auto insurance. Less commuting miles to work allows you a savings on your coverage.

• Money spent eating your lunch out with your co-workers. You not only save money by eating at home, but this allows you to live a healthier life. Plan your meals.

• How much are you currently spending on clothing, drycleaners, etc.? This will no longer be necessary. Just think, you can get up, grab a cup of coffee (don’t have the expense of your local coffee shop), and sit down in your office. You can even stay in your PJ’s all day, if you want to!

• A huge benefit…maintaining your office at home allows tax deductions. Be sure to check with IRS regulations and not take deductions you should not!!

• And one of the greatest benefits of a home-based business is that it allows you to spend more quality time with your family. It allows you to have a flexible schedule.

I recently retired after spending 45 plus years in the corporate world. I am working with an awesome group of internet marketers called the Crazy Foxes Marketing Group. There is 24/7 chat support and I have developed relationships with like-minded people. I have been involved with other internet businesses, but have NEVER learned as much as I have with the Crazy Foxes.  

If you are going to establish a home-based internet marketing business, do your due diligence homework. There are a lot of scams coming down the pike. Even if a company states they have been in business for years, dig deeper. Find out exactly what the plan is that you will have to follow to become successful. Granted you are like the rest of us. More than likely you are going to make some mistakes in the learning process and spend more money than you thought would be required.

There are tremendous tools available to anyone who puts the required effort into their business and believe they can succeed. Be sure to attend available trainings and meetings. Be open to learn from others.

The Crazy Foxes Marketing Group works closely with the following groups:

Veretekk: Veretekk is a powerful tool. Sign up for a Free Silver Account. This is our marketing system, our lead generator, SEO producer, and more… plus it is ONE of our primary income sources.

New Plan Network: NPN is a real income generator, and I’m talking SERIOUS income, NPN and its products are the internet’s best kept secret. From Capture Page creator, to the elite multisponder auto responder system, these are absolute must haves for every internet marketer.

Traffic Hoopla: Free system – Traffic Hoopla keeps on top of the best of the best Traffic Exchanges and Safelists. You join Traffic Hoopla and then join the highest producing traffic generators on the web, all managed from this central location.

Protracker Plus: ProTrackerPlus is the ad tracking program recommended by the $200 Per Day Blueprint. It allows you to track your hits, conversions and more, and you get paid to refer others.

• Social networking. Twitter and Facebook are only two of many available. You not only developing relationships but you learn about powerful tools, and are able to share your knowledge with others.

The Crazy Foxes Marketing Group not only leads the way to training, and learning the tools that will help us to become successful with our home-based internet business, but it also provides access to new business that are thought to be profitable. You are not obligated to join these businesses. However, you have the ability to expand your profile on the internet with new opportunities. These businesses are listed under “Programs” on the Crazy Foxes Marketing Group Website.

I wish you great success in whatever road you travel. Be sure to take advantage of the tools available to you. Research, consistence, perseverance and belief in yourself can bring you success.

I have been involved with home based businesses for the past 5 – 6 years.  The first 3 years were not strictly “internet marketing”.  I have learned a lot over these past few years and I would like to share my trials and tribulations.

 

First of all, you must do your due diligence.  Make sure whatever you are getting involved in has a good reputation and track record.  Check with the Better Business Bureau to see if any complaints have been logged against the company you are considering and most importantly if these complaints have been resolved.

 

Once you sign up with a business, be sure to connect with your sponsor and/or up line to glean from their training and experience.  Attend online conferences every opportunity you can.  If your business lacks support…..think twice about continuing!

 

Don’t stop at just the training that is being offered to you…Google “marketing training” and learn from what you find.  I personally made the mistake to settle for what I was being told as being the Gospel truth.  I have since found out that a lot of the things I was doing, especially related to advertising my business, was not the full picture and I really needed to do more to be successful at my business.  Advertising your business opportunity is a VERY important aspect of your business.  If you are going to succeed you need to learn how to get the word out to the multitudes about your business.

 

My last business I worked diligently for 10 to 14 hours a day.  I did everything I was instructed to do.  I made phone calls to my down line, I sent emails and welcomed new members, I sent monthly emails out to my entire down line, and  I let people know when they would be rolling up and lose their position, just to mentioned a few!  I still had a lot more money going out than what was coming in.

 

I recently joined the $200 Per Day Blueprint.  Through this business opportunity I have been blessed to become part of The Crazy Foxes Internet Marketing Group, which is comprised of professional entrepreneurs who are always there 24/7 to help.    I truly have learned more in the past 3 months than I learned the past 2-1/2 years with my other business. 

 

Whatever your business might be I want to point out a couple of tools that will be beneficial to you and help you become successful.

 

There are lots of programs out there, but NONE offer the training, support and REAL income potential that Global NPN offers.  For $10.75 a month you will be blown away by the tools they offer.  You will find recorded and live training, multiple streams of income (MSI), low or no risk and one on one and small group coaching, just to mention a few.

 

I am sure many of you have heard of Veretekk.  You can join for free and have a Silver Membership, but the true power lies in upgrading and obtaining a Gold Membership.  With Veretekk you have access to Webnars, your portals (in the Gold) will consist of Traffic, Profit and SEO Portals, you will have Verefied Email and live training with Veretraining.  This is truly a powerhouse of networking tools that will help you to become successful.  There are videos to help you through all of the phases.  I especially like these as I can do them 24/7 and go back and re-listen to items I don’t understand the first time around.

 

So whatever your business may be….whether it is a business that helps you save money on what you are already doing, or solutions for your home, health or wealth, the tools I’ve mentioned above will be useful to you.

 

I hope that you will take the time to check out the opportunities above. 

 

Whatever your business, I wish you great success and hope that you will find the tools and help that I have come across.  It truly makes all the difference.
