Can I use that line as a Quote in my marketing efforts? That's a great quote.

Yes, I agree 100%. We must never loose sight of the fact that when one is starting a new business, they will need all the help they can get.

We should never forget that most of us were in the same situation, navigating through the site like in a maze, until we could anderstand what needs to be done. The APS Forum is like an extended family, and we must stay focused on our comon goal: to succeed in business! Without a real genuine help, it is hard to do.

Because of the lack of immediate success, people gets descouraged, and we must lift them up, and motivate them, and give them the best advise possible.

And we the Super Sponsors, should never take for granted, the generosity of our leaders. Where else are you paid to help others by postingin the Forum?

When people feel like they are getting the help they need, they will come back with confidence, and the retention procentage will increase.

Dear All,

Tissa is really such a gr88 guy who is helping us giving freely 125$ freely at the begining when we join at first and still he is giving free offers by keeping " Super Sponsers" and "Super Affiliate Switch" , "Other Income Streams (say GDI , GVO etc..)" ....

Apart from all these, we are all learning from here..I myself truly speaking , I really dont have much knowledge regarding "Internet Marketing", but now I have really learned a lot from here (ofcourse , there is still more to learn to earn )....and now I made up my mind to become a Successful  Internet Marketer....Tissa is really  a pioneer for most of the newbies... Thnq so much Tissa for keeping such a beautiful system...

When Tissa is helping us financially as well as Making us to  Learn many things, there is really nothing wrong to help newbies by us atleast with a single post... We should never be selfish..When we share our knowledge, then only we get many things from others and we make more money ..."Knowledge MUST be Transferable "

This post is really worthful becoz atleast by seeing this post many SS come forward and try to help the newbies...Otherwise, some SS just sit quitely and watch the movie...

Thanks,
Harishwar

What worries you, masters you !!!

Hey there Angela. I know I've said some very unsupersponsorish things to you in the past, and I am sorry for that. I have recognized this change, and have tried to see it as an example. I think you're doing a great job.

Hey guys.

I have my doubts this month. We will have to see!

Good luck to all trying for SS this month

I also have my doubts, alas, however helpful I am, and the pm's I recieve tell me I am quite so. Only in my forum "ambassador of good will" capacity, and my true concern for all here and their sticking with it!!! However, I must state, that even with all those merits, and I do feel love from many, I have still not sufficiently amassed enough Technical skills to be able to be of help , I mean direct help, not the pdf kind, lol : to pass forward as yet. Many of my threads are not directly related to APS, just to the welfare and wellbeing of its forum members . So if I do get dropped, I will fully understand. I might not be able stay on in full capacity any longer with all the different additions, but I will always stay active here and hold this forum and its members dear to my heart, and continue to pass it forward in my own, very unique style. No emoticons used for this post. Surprise! No, that doesn't mean I will refrain from them in the future, they help me express friendliness , and I like them. Emoticons are me. Otherwise, to quote a comedian I saw last night; they'd better invent more fonts, expressive fonts, like sarcastica, hysterica, panicka, joviallis, etc.

Not in the mood
Blessings to all and good luck.
Nadine

Being a Super Sponsor Is all about helping others with their
APS business.

If you are not helping then why should Tissa give you the SS title?

I've not being doing enough this month as I have had other things
to contend with, if I lose the title of SS then it is for that reason alone
and I fully agree with it.

But I will be back here helping now I have sorted my other commitments!

Good luck to all current Super Sponsors and to all the contenders,

Tony

Thats all is very true, Super Sponsors status isnt about how much post you make, its about how helpful are you with your posts. Be helpful to others and you will be noticed, and then continue to be helpful.
Its such an uplifting feeling when u know that u have helped someone, and it can give you the power and endurance to overcome every mountain peak u seek in a educational meaning. You gotta risk it to get the biscuit.

Angela,
Good for you!  I agree with what you have done in refraining from getting involved in certain threads.  Early on I stopped visiting the Scam posts with the intent of answering those having complaints.  I realized my best work to do in that thread would be to tailor my answer toward the people who are reading the post and now having their own doubts (instead of focussing my reply toward the original post creator)

Hi Tony.

I think too many have posted "well if you can't afford the program, try to become a super sponsor so that Tissa will pay."  $133 should not be the motivation for being a super sponsor, but many seem to believe that super sponsor is the crowning achievement around here, when in fact it is not.  The real achievement is when someone understands a concept or an approach or how to achieve something that they didn't understand until you replied. 
So better advice would be - "if you can't afford the expenses of the program, then learn to earn using free methods.  And as you learn, share your knowledge with the forum and you are on the path to becoming a super sponsor."

What Tony has said here reflects the character that Tissa looks for in a super sponsor in the first place.  The fact is Tony, that you recognize that you had other more pressing commitments and you didn't hesitate to prioritize things.  In other words, you haven't 'lost sight' of your own efforts.  A number of super sponsors have 'broken' from posting at the forum for a period of time to attend to other business, and then returned, refreshed, and even more focused.  I am one of them.  How could we be of any use helping other forum members grow their business if we are out of touch with our own business?

Way to go, Tony!

I believe one of the biggest hurdles that we as internet marketers have to overcome is motivation. Sometimes we have days where we have no action or don't get the results we expect which can drag you down. Lack of motivation leads to disappointment. That's when many people give up.

When I talk to people and explain what I do they look at me like I'm crazy. Finding negative energy is easy. Coming here and talking to others helps keep up my motivation.  Knowing there are people out there who, just six months ago, were where I am and are now, and can now pay their bills helps me to keep going.

Even when I am so tired of trying... I keep going. There is nothing else to do. I keep telling myself, if I had started doing marketing like this 5 years ago when I tried it the first time, I would be in a completely different situation. i am now very interested in seeing where I am 5 years from now. Now that I had made such a strong commitment to changing my life.

I am glad to have an outlet like this and I hope to someday meet some of the other members here.

Tissa I want to thank you for this great opportunity of becoming a Super Sponsor and then paying us back our fees.  This really helps me out because I have not yet been able to make much money.  In the mean time paying me back is a life saver!

This is so true about being a Super Sponsor and continuing to help others.  Helping our friends in the forum does help me stay focused on the ACME People Search business itself. The more I learn, the more I can help others.

I try my best to help others, but I do probably not enough to remain as an Super Sponsor. And as I haven't yet succeeded to make an payment from the APS system(I'm so close!), therefore I probably don't deserve being an super sponsor.

If I'm dropped it will not be a shocked.

I tried to make a topic about SEO, but haven't had the time to make it complete, and since my real time job still is my main funding, I can afford to loose that job because of an topic or 30+ helpful post at APS and the super sponsor demands.

I wish all existing Super Sponsor good luck and all new up and coming super sponsor all the best.

If this week is my last as a super sponsor I will thank you Tissa for being a part of your community.

If I get dumped I will still as many others who are addicted to the forum, stick around still even if I'm not a Super Sponsor.

Just reminding everyone of this Nov. 12 post in advance of the Super Sponsor updates tomorrow (Dec. 18).

Tissa
