Have you checked out CB Code yet?  I just got back from a Disney Vacation and got this recommendation from a very close friend who doesn't fall for any of the hype, does not join anything without thorough research, and guards his time and money like a hawk.  I trust Jeff when he tells me I need to check something out.

Clickbank Code is one of the best systems and educational products I have seen come along in the last 18-24 months.  It is simple, to the point, and yet very complete in what you receive.  The bottomline is, follow Mike's videos and start earning some cash from Clickbank.

Another reason I really like CB Code is that you aren't joining any program, you're not signing up for some long term commitment, and you don't have to recruit anyone.  Even if you are already in some type of MLM company, this doesn't interfere with that.  There's no conflict of interest. 

Just visit the site.  This receives one of my highest recommendations for making money online in 2009.  You will see that Mike has only been doing Clickbank since February of this year, so you aren't getting old information.  He is making an average of $45,000 per month selling other people's products!  That is HUGE! 

I really think you'll like what you get with Clickbank Code.  I bought it myself, and I'm looking to have at least 33% of my monthly income through Clickbank.

Let me get straight to the point! If you are new to the internet it will be hard to make $5,000 a month.

I don't care what your program has stated people are making.

Your program may be able to produce that, but the catch is either you have to put money into marketing or the people in the program are pros.

I can promise you right now, you will not make $5,000 a month in any program just by joining!

IT WILL NOT HAPPEN SORRY!

Now most people will not tell you that. I do because I know how it feels to need to make money online.

The flipside to this is if you learn how to market you can have the results you desire.

Let me outline the keys words in that last sentence… LEARN, MARKET and DESIRE.

If you are willing to LEARN I can teach you. If you are willing to MARKET yourself and program you can get an internet income. If your DESIRE is great enough you will not QUIT before you reach the finish line.

This is what it takes PERIOD, do not be mislead.

You will need those 3 words in what ever program you join.

Now my program provides the Cash producing model and the marketing training, but you have to provide the Desire.

If you can do that click on the link below and let's go to work.

I know the two things you need right now leads and cash to stay in business long enough to receive some real money!!!

So now that I've pulled the blinders off the decision is yours!!

Click below and take the whole tour and you will see it is possible to receive a great income online but you will have to work for it!!!

During this time when people are searching to replace incomes they have lost due to layoffs, downsizing, cut backs or whatever you want to call it, more and more people are searching for something to supplement those lost incomes.

People are also looking to increase their current incomes just to change the quality of their life. Whatever your reason is, let's look at your choices.

GPT, or better known as Getting Paid Today is just that you get paid each and every day right into the account of your choice. When you need the money its right there.

MLM or Multi Level Marketing works a little different for the most part. You work promoting your business getting signups for a 30 day period of time and then wait typically to around the 15th of the next month to get a check in the mail. That's about 45 days before you get your money.

Getting Paid Today programs or at least the one I belong to you receive 100% of all the money you earn.

MLM programs you receive a percentage of what you earn. It may range from 20% to as high as 60%.

Getting Paid Today programs are internet based which gives you several advantages:

1. You work from the convenience of your home.
2. You don't have to go to outside meetings. Meetings are generally held via Webcast again watching them in the convince from your home.
3. You have approx. 50 million people over the internet that you can expose your business to.

MLM programs are different in this manner:

1. You have to go outside and canvass for sign ups.
2. You go to meetings usually a minimum of 1 time a week.
3. After friends and Family than what as far as people to expose your business to.

I in my no means trying to say anything negative or positive about either one. I just am presenting some of the things I know about both. I have done both and have been successful in both. The reason I am writing this blog is to give you some Pros and Cons so you can make an intelligent decision on which one you choose to do.

As for me, yes I am doing a Getting Paid Today program right now and I love it.

If you find yourself at the point where it is time to start over, you want to make sure it is REALLY what you want.

I remember back in 1997 when I joined my first MLM company.  I didn't really know any other company… didn't really know what was going on.  A dozen years later, and I know hundreds and hundreds of MLM companies… about 98% of them I wouldn't even come near.

But, since beginning to work from home, I have come to realize the world is bigger than Network Marketing.  In fact, MLM is a very small percentage of the opportunities that are out there.

So, if you find yourself at a place where it is time to start over, weigh things out.  Don't let anyone push or pull you into something.  Be choosey. 

There are pros and cons for almost everything out there. 

MLM is great because there are systems in place and these types of companies are actually designed to be duplicated.  MLM is tough though because of it's reputation in some circles and it is not as easy as people lead you to believe.  If you need a good example of a solid company, you can check out Cyberwize.  This site has several videos to validate how solid they are.

Search Engine Marketing is great because the limits only lie within yourself.  There are many, many quality mentors to learn from… not least of which is StomperNet.  SEO is also very tough because the competition can be high in some niches and the learning curve can be big… but, I like SEO because once you get past the first bump or two, you realize that the competition at the top is very minimal… it's just getting there.

There are many other types of businesses you can get involved with.  I would encourage you to click on a few of the ads in the upper right corner - Stock Trading Robot and Maverick Money Maker are great.  In fact, I really like MMM and think it may be one of the best systems out there right now.

Choose a business and put the blinders on… don't get distracted… never surrender… and fight toward your goal of a full-time home business.

Probably my favorite nutritional company in the world is Mannatech.  One of my favorite men in the whole world is Sam Caster.  If you know anything about what has been going on the last couple of years, the ruling came down and the Attorney General of Texas gave Mannatech a very serious blow, and Sam Caster took a pretty rough hit.

But, the real world operates differently than the direction either Mannatech or Sam Caster chose to operate with their primary product, Ambrotose. 

Two other nutritional companies I really like are Vemma and Xango.  The leadership of these companies are excellent as well.  The biggest difference I know between these two companies and Mannatech is that any average person can represent Vemma and Xango, but Mannatech almost required you to get a PhD in Ambrotose in order to be successful.

Don't get me wrong, I like Ambrotose and Mannatech… I already said that.  But as a network marketing company, they completely missed the boat.  They got so focused on how excellent their product was (and to be honest, they had a right to that), that they became blinded to the real world and how the real world treats companies like Mannatech who lose their focus.

The real world (governed by lobbyists, pharmaceutical companies, insurance companies, etc) likes to pressure AG's to clamp down, fine, shut down, and otherwise cripple companies such as Mannatech (i.e. Sea Silver) so that they can barely exist… hopefully one day to shut them down completely.

Again, don't get me wrong, if I found myself in the hospital with some disease, or one of my family members, there probably isn't any product I would rather have given to me than Ambrotose.  I'm serious about that.  Just ask some of the top physicians, surgeons, or scientists in the world, and they would say the same thing.  Probably the biggest names in medicine to ever, ever endorse a nutritional product.  But, that's as far as I would go.

If I was going to work with a nutritional company, I wouldn't come close to working with Mannatech.  It's not even the cart before the horse… because Mannatech believes they don't need a horse.  As far a network marketing company goes, they have missed the boat and there is no sense of business building support whatsoever.  Now Mannatech people may throw their hands up and argue with me, but that's because they are not on the outside looking in.  Mannatech may actually have one of the best compensation plans available, but they have no business plan.  And that, ultimately, is what I believe has been their Achilles Heel.  And Achilles Heel here just doesn't mean their weakness, it means their doom.

Xango and Vemma have excellent, excellent products, but I honestly believe their products are not quite as good as Ambrotose.  It's kind of like McDonalds.  Does McDonalds make the best hamburgers in town?  No.. maybe not even in the top 5.  But, I find myself going to McDonalds for a hamburger these days more than Fudruckers, Chapps, Applebees, or wherever because McDonalds can out-market these companies like no other.  I like McDonalds.  If I had to go get a job, I would rather go work for McDonalds than any of these other companies because I like their image and how they do business.

Ultimately, I believe Mannatech's downfall came several years ago, long before the Texas AG attacked them.  When they chose to become a product company with a compensation plan, rather than a network marketing company, it was only a matter of time.  Worse days are ahead for Mannatech, I believe.  I wouldn't want to stay with a sinking ship… which has been taking on water for a long time.

Again, I like Mannatech (I already said that), but it certainly isn't a business for the average person looking for a home-based business.  If you wanted to make money working from home, then choose Vemma or Xango as a nutritional company, PrePaid Legal or Ameriplan as non-nutritional companies. 

I don't work with any network marketing company, so I am objective.  I have nothing to gain or lose whether Mannatech folds or blossoms out of this.

Mannatech may have the best burger in town, but you would never know it because their marketing sucks, just as I am sure there is a restaurant out there in my town that has the best hamburger in town, but I would never know it because their marketing sucks.  Therefore, the Xangos and Vemmas of the world will always dominate, just as McDonalds has, because they have the right focus and the right approach to growing a network marketing business.

Anyway, I wish the best for Sam Caster and Mannatech.  Great guy.  Great company.  Sam will probably be the first to admit he isn't a great business guy.  But it's too bad he didn't have a great business guy to lead his company.

I've been involved in many marketing, mlm and affiliate programs over the years. A good first rule is to find something you enjoy and give yourself some time to learn.

Another rule is don't sell something that you have zero interest in. You'll have a hard time convincing others what a great product or service you have if you don't believe it yourself.

Recently I found a new program that not only targets the internets massive social networking community but is also going to benefit from the ever-growing cell phone industry. These are two massive markets.

There new application available on Feb 27, is called chattotext.com. Users can send and receive texts back and forth between computers and cell phones. It will also work with facebook, and very soon many other networks such as myspace and bebo. If you have interests around this service you could do very well their reseller.

One can use their site or use other sites such as facebook and you do not need an internet capable cell phone for this service. The cost for this incredible niche application is only $6.00 but they offer up a marketing plan which has an amazing 9 levels. I've joined http://www.ichattotext.com to use the application and to test the waters. So far I'm more than impressed with the signup notifications and the free tracking software provided. Very user friendly.

This is a real application for the internet and there are no limits to the amount of signups. Add to that the possibilites of an ever expanding nine levels, then I believe that the founders have themselves a winner. Alexa rankings over the last 2 weeks show this company is fast on it's way to the top.

According to it's founders, Shawn Pringle and Scott Messina, chattotext, is the only application of it's kind in the world. I've done a thorough search of the internet and I can not find anything that has anything near the capabilities of chattotext. I'm going to give this a bit of my time and attention as I like what I see.
