Tissa Godavitarne's ACME People Search & GDI Support Forum » Tissa's Acme Referral Program » I finally broke $1,000 plus in APS current earnings!!
The last thing i want to do is go against the rules so I changed any titles and meta descriptions that are on any of my videos or websites. But anyway they are just videos that speak about making money they dont sell anything .. The affiliate companies I talk about do the selling for me. Now if they have the word "guaranteed" on there sign up page or agreement forms then it would be a problem.

Hey Paul,
Are you building backlinks to your videos from your articles that you submit to UAW? Is this your whole strategy?

Hi Paul:
Read your thoughts above.
If they were a bit more pertinent to the issues mentioned by Tissa and others, it would give me something to think about.
However, they didn't even come close to addressing the issues raised.
I have nothing against you or anyone making tons of money, though putting the whole organization at risk is something else, and must be addressed.
I'm reminded of the fellow who said that money has the unfortunate knack of finding and ruthlessly exploiting any weakness in one's character. I hope your pursuit of the buck is not from a weakness because the buck will lay you wide open for all the world to see. If that is what you want, then so be it, but please consider the aspirations of others, no matter how small and insignificant we may be.
Peace amid the storm,
Rick

Well done Paul !
While I agree that most people would not believe the claim of $6000 a month, It is best to not use such claims.
Now a title of "See how I earn $abcd a month online" would be fine, I think. If true.
This post is a duplicate that got submitted on accident .. how do I delete this post?
the original post I was attending to submit is under this one, lol
I don't know how this happens.

Hey Paul,

The wizard is an important tool but there is a whole lot more to it than just simply building backlinks.
I would also like to say to everyone else here that is reading this thread is that I work a full time job here in south Florida .. I woke up at 5am this morning spent 30 minutes helping my affiliates and then met my guys at work by 6am this morning didn't get off work till 8pm came home and continued to work very closely with my down line. I am putting 110% into both of my jobs "offline and online". I am working as hard as I can to make time to join one of Tissa's webinars. Untill then I will be coming on the forum as much as I can. I also want to say that there is a lot to learn about the online marketing "do's and don'ts" and thank you all for keeping me updated on whats wrong and right.
I would love to stay and chat some more but it is late and i have to be up at 5am again and what another long day its going to be .. hopefully I will have the weekend off cause I need a brake.
I also got a laptop with a T-Mobile (unlimited) land card and will be bringing it to work with me so hopefully I will be able to catch tissa's next webinar. Until then GOOD NIGHT!!
Paul
thanks for replying Paul. Can I get in touch with you sometime to discuss things in more detail. I could call you sometime. Would that work? Just PM me when you get a chance.

Paul,
I hate to rain on your parade, but your numbers show that out of the $1030.25 payable only $9.00 is from recurring commissions (two members!). I know we struggle with retention around here, but that's exceptionally bad and it's probably because you make some pretty outrageous claims in your marketing like "Earn $6,000 a month - Guaranteed!". We've seen accounts disabled for advertising "$125 Right away just for joining" so I don't think Tissa would approve of you guaranteeing a $6,000/month income with his program. Also, I'm not a lawyer, but without a disclaimer and by offering a guarantee I'm sure your advertising is in violation of FTC regulations. And if you are giving your downline your marketing materials and methods with your name on it you can be putting yourself in a lot of risk especially given the number of referrals you have generated. I recommend reading Frank Kern's story about getting sued by the FTC. Not fun. I would make sure to protect yourself.

Im sorry you feel that way but if it was not for people like Chris around here pointing out peoples mistakes and probable law suits you would not have any APS..
So i think you should choose your words more carefully next time and really read what has been said...
We look out for each other on here to keep everything above board and there should be no problem when a member points to a situation that could lead to disaster...

Closenno, just now you found to criticize ? Now? ... when he proved that can earn good money in this business? Closenno I think that speaks envy of you. I hope you do not mind but it is not right from you. Why do not you criticized earlier?
I can say that one of things or people, why I not quit from this business is PAUL CHERRY. Not Closenno or another super affiliate. His success has made me not give up.
And I can not say I got help from him, just a very little.
Anyway, if he show how effectively earn ... where is the problem?Sorry for my language.
Where is the problem?!? ROFL!
Am I living in some kind of parallel universe here? I can't believe we're even having this conversation. Some of the remarks in this thread have me floored.
Let me break this down for those who are struggling to grasp this simple concept: You can't misrepresent offers!
This means you can't guarantee prospects a $6,000 a month income if you are promoting the APS business opportunity. Just as you can't advertise properties for the same price as a Burger King double cheeseburger if you are promoting the APL real estate offers!
And when a few members do this they potentially put all of us at risk for the possibility of:
1) Pulled offers
2) Reduced payouts
3) More restrictions
4) Negative brand recognitionNot to mention the potential legal issues Tissa could face.
Unbelievable!

For me, and I think for many other members who do not live in USA, this problem, about using the word "guaranteed" seems trivial.
In Romania never had a problem like this ... I think neither India ... I'm right kausarkhan?
I find it strange ... I did't know that in USA, are restricted to something like that ... But if these are the rules we mast to follow .... So I apologize if I offended Closenno with my assessment.
But still bothered me that he now criticize ... Paul is happy to be able to reach its target of $ 1,000. I think what made Paul is very motivating for new members. Criticism is constructive indeed but now, I think, it was better in private.
I appreciate Closenno's contribution to the forum.
I hope he understood my reaction.
For Paul, congratulations and hope to share more of yours knowledge.

Well, i'm outside of US and i think the usage of word "guaranteed", where someone cant really guarantee that they will indeed make that kinda summ of money is really misleading.
There is no guarantee, because a lot ppl that get involved in the the "make money online" niche are with less or no experience in money making online, therefor they cant use the same techniques effectively like others.

I wanted to say that Romania is not the law, as "the FTC Regulations"
to regulate such matters ... and I think even in Latvia.
And I said ... if is a problem for U.S. law .... we must comply .
What kind of person you think would have experience in making money online? And what niche do they part?
I think most do not have that experience ... otherwise I do not have this experience ... and maybe 95% of APS members. But still, I enrolled in the program and learn to promote this business.

Ok,
I have talk to someone else, a higher power I should say who knows more about this than most of us I am not saying any names but using the word "Guaranteed" to attract people to our affiliate links can pose as a problem.
To me a see a huge loophole in this whole thing but to save us or anyone else from making a major mistake the word guaranteed should not be used on anything we use when dealing with online marketing.
Its not easy to know all the rules but it is a good thing for the aps forum that we have each other in cases like this.
The way I look at it is Google the internet giant has paid scholars helping them build and design there search engine but what do we have? We are just individuals at home alone figuring this all out for our selves .. This is why I like the Acme program and believe in it more than I do other affiliate programs cause with the Acme program we are never alone. Its like Tissa said, Who needs a sponsor when you have the entire Acme People Search forum at your finger tips.
I have to give it to you Chris you really called this one.
Paul
Way to go Paul. I've just been reading this thread from post one and its good that you have realized the fault of using the word 'Guaranteed'. Before we've been using the phrase 'guaranteed $125 in 24 hours' but that was already history. If we can no longer use 'guaranteed $125 in 24 hours', so much more is 'guaranteed $6000' in a certain period.
But I've been following your marketing inputs Paul. You do a great job although this one got you a little off-balanced. But I am really glad you have regained your composure and straightened things out. This goes to show how transparent APS forum is and we really have to hear both sides (or read from them actually) and know the best end of the argument.
APS is the best forum there is.
