Save Money Going “Green”

On the verge of all the new EPA regulations being proposed for new cars, we have an amazing product that goes the ‘extra mile’ for your existing vehicle.



Furthermore, you can rest assure knowing that this product is registered with the EPA. It dissolves quickly, (within minutes) so there no concerns about clogged filters or injectors. And most of all, this product WILL NOT VOID any engine warranties you may have on your vehicle.


This new “green” technology not only helps the environment, but also keeps more money in your pocket. This product effectively reduces the harmful emissions that are produced by your vehicle, such as CO, NOX, and SO2. It also increases your fuel economy and the need for higher octane requirements, saving you money at the gas pumps. Fuel mileage may increase 3 to 5 miles per gallon after just a tank or two of treatment! One can do the math to figure out just how much farther you can go on a tank of fuel and calculate the instant savings at $3.00 to $5.00 per gallon, depending on where you live and what type of vehicle you drive. Even at an extra 2 miles per gallon with a 10 gallon tank, that’s equates to 20 more miles per fill up! Why pay more if you don’t have to?


If that wasn’t enough, this product also helps prolong your vehicles’ engine life by cleaning the combustion surfaces and allows the engine oil to stay cleaner longer providing better lubrication inside your engine. Also, with the cleaning taking place inside the engine, the results have shown an increase in horsepower, engine torque, and acceleration.


So, the question is: Why not help the environment, especially if you can save your hard earned money at the same time?


This breakthrough product is not available in stores. Go to JDS Investments, LLC for product and ordering information.

Weigh the Options Of Working From Home

Working from home is not a decision to take lightly. Of course, most of us would do it if we could, but there is a lot to consider in making this choice.

There are obvious reasons why an individual would want to. Such as working your own hours, being on your own schedule, not someone elses. Being able to work around whatever obstacles one may face on a daily basis; kids in school, doctors appointments, kids sick at home, maybe childrens' atfer school activities. These can be awlfully appealing.

Maybe you hate your job. You can be your own boss. No one to answer to. Once again, it sounds nice.

OK. It would be great.
However, how does someone get started?
Am I going to produce enough income to support my family?
What is it that I am going to sell or provide?
How much can I afford to invest in this?
How long is it going to take it get this going?

The questions keep coming, probably giving you a headache.

Its a fear factor. Most of us are scared. You have a comfort zone knowing you have a steady job and income. You feel it is not worth all the risk to start a new venture. You can't possibly throw away all that you have worked for!

Right! This is why, we never make a change!

Creating an Effective Ad

Creating an effective ad to promote your product or service can be a challenge. Remember, the goal is to get targeted individuals, looking for your services, to click on your ad and see what you're offering to them. I have compiled a list of tips to use when creating your advertisement.

1. Place your main search keyword in your ad title.

2. Use "title case" in the ad title. Meaning the capitalization of only the first letter in each word. example: "Here's My Ad"

3. Use "sentence case" in your ad description. example: "Do you need shoes?"

4. Resist the temptation of capitalizing complete words in both your title and descpription. Example of this would be: "AMAZING DEALS"

5. Make sure your spelling, grammer, and punctuation are correct. You want your ad to look professional and reliable.

6. It is alright to use symbols in your ad such as "&", "?", "#", "%", but not excessively like"!!!!"

7. Have a strong call to action and value to get the user to click on your ad. Example: "Today only! Save 20%"

8. Try to avoid using terms that don't accurately describe the characteristics of your services such as "cheapest" or "best".

9. Don't create odd abbreviations like "GR8" or "biz". The more common ones that people will recognize are alright to use.

10. Last but not least, don't conclude your ad with "click here" or "learn more". It is just wasted space. If the individuals like your offer (ad) they'll click on it. Your website is already included as part of your ad, they don't need to be instructed to click on it.

This will get your ad campaign off on the right foot. Avoiding common mistakes will make your ad stand out as being professional and thus, enticing users to click through to your website.

GETTING NOTICED!

One of the hardest things to do when starting your own home business venture is trying to get noticed by the rest of the world.
You build your website, print business cards, etc., and your ready to do business. Except you have no customers.

O.K. You do what your told:

You get SEO (Search Engine Optimization)tools that are supposed to optimize your website.
You submit your site to the most revelant search engines, however it must be noted that your site probably will not be "crawled" immediately, but you did your part and wait to be indexed.
Although you submitted your site, your not going to get much exposure. You need to find a way to generate traffic to your site. It is time to avertise your goods and services to the public.
How does one go about that?
I think it is safe to say that anyone is allowed to advertise on any given search engine for a price. Google, Yahoo, MSN, the lists goes on keeping in mind that your ad will only be displayed on that particular search engines network.
My advice, start small, only submit 1 ad on 1 search engine at a time. Test it out and see how it does, then add another ad to another search engine.

Note: If your ad is not producing any traffic, change the wording of the current ad and retest it.
In the beginning, you do not want to be running a bunch of ads at the same time! This is a common mistake. Advertising costs MONEY! You'll go broke before you even get started!

Remember: 1 ad, change it 'til it works (producing traffic), then concider creating more ads to get more traffic. If you get your first ad to bring in customers and produce sales, hopefully you're creating an income that will allow you to expand your advertising to other search engines, therefore increasing your exposure more and then... one thing leads to another and you get to where you want to be.

Be patient! Advertising converting to customers takes time and effort.
Start small and work your way from there!

TO YOUR SUCCESS!

Affiliate Marketing Does Have Its Place

My last few posts have been treating Affiliate Programs a bit unfairly. Affiliate Programs do have their place in this world.

I've told in my earlier posts that these programs are not for the common individual and this still holds true!

Companies create affiliate programs in an effort to get people advertising their products or services for them. If you have ever been apart of one of these programs, you know that the only way to make a profit, you must get customers to your link or website.

If you are aware of how much time, effort, and money a person has to invest to be successful with one of these programs, one can see how the parent company has the advantage.

Think about it for a minute. If you were the parent company, would you rather work constantly trying to get customers yourself or would you have 100 affiliates doing the same work creating 100 times more exposure to your company.

THAT'S A NO BRAINER FOR THE PARENT COMPANY!

On top of that, as an affiliate, you are being compensated by a small commission of the sales and sign ups you generate, well worth the companys' investment in you. Also, you have to work constantly to continue to create sales and sign ups for them in order to have a steady income.

So, to sum it up, Affiliate Programs are great if you're the Parent Company. It saves them alot of time, effort, and investment in advertising.

If your just a common individual like myself, your time is better spent doing something else, because it will be extremely difficult to get ahead in one of these programs.

An Alternative to Affiliate Programs

Let me start by saying that affiliate programs just don't work for nearly all individuals that try them. One must invest so mcuh time,effort, and money into the advertising of affiliate links or websites that you eventually drain your savings, rack up credit card debt, ect. trying to get customers or signups to produce a little profit; if your lucky. A recipe for disaster!

Let me introduce you to a new way of being able to succeed in a work from home environment. After, over 10 years we have found the ticket to making money from home.
It works on what I would call a matrix system. Each new member is only responsible for enrolling two new members underneath them and helping those two do the same. The sytem is so ridiculously easy; anyone can do it!
I will not tell you the name of the company here! You'll have to visit our website for that info!

I recently, discovered that their system was reproduced in a similar fashion ("copy cat") of course, molded slightly different to fit their needs. I guess, if something is successful, you're going to get "copy cats" out there capitalizing on someone else's idea.

Enough about that, the point is, that this company is so successful in their first year of existence that it would be silly not to copy the system. Watch out for imitations!

Hundreds of thousands of new members joined in the past year, and these home business individuals are quietly making $10,000 plus each and every month! Wouldn't you like a piece of the pie?

As mentioned before, this is an ridiculously easy system. You don't need your own website, and you don't to spend all the time, effort, and money promoting it.

Hence, all the profit is YOURS!

After your onetime lifetime membership fee, all you need to do is enroll two more individuals and the rest is history!

Promoting Your Home Business

Yesterday, It was determined the in order for any home business owner to have any success; you need to have a continuous supply of customers. I think we all can agree on that. Without customers, your business can not grow, therefore no profit for you.
Pretty simple concept, right.

LET THE WORLD KNOW YOU EXSIST!!

I also touched on the two types of advertising out there. (free and paid) Please, keep in mind that neither one of those methods will make your business boom overnight. It is just a good starting point to drive traffic (customers) to your link or website.

Applying your advertising properly,(this will take time) will have potential customers clicking on your ads, posts, ect. Therefore, increasing your websites' popularity and start making the climb to the top of search engines.

If you haven't done so yet, you need to submit your site or links to at least the popular searches. Such as Google, Yahoo, and Msn. There are also alot of search engine submission sites out there that will submit your site automatically. Most of them require a membership, but it will save you alot of time instead of going to each search engine and typing in the same information over and over again. There are literally 100's of search engines out there. If it takes 5 minutes for you to submit your site, you can do the math to see how much time it would take to do it yourself. The search engine submission sites probably can do it for around $40.00 or less, so I feel this is a smart investment. I don't have a favorite submission site and I don't know if one is better than the other being they pretty much submit your site to the same search engines.

Enough about that, the main point is that if your site is submitted to the search engines, it will start to show up in the listings when people are searching for the product or service you are providing.

Keep advertising, that's the key to having CUSTOMERS, try new ads, change the ad every few days until it appeals to your targeted customers (you'll know when you've found it, sales will go up or signups will increase). Keep blogging and writing articles and submitting them (make sure the information is revelant to your product or service).

REMEMBER ATTRACTING CUSTOMERS IS YOUR GOAL!!

My Thoughts on Affiliate Marketing (MLM) Part 3

Helping Individuals Create Better Futures Today!
Brought to you by JDS Investments, LLC

OK, in my last couple of posts, I touch on the reasons in which over 90% of home businesses fail. We established that the only way to make them successful is to get a large amount of customers.

After trying to "hit up" your friends and family, posting signs, and classified ads in the local papers. Where do you turn?

At this point the fustration is probably setting in and you do not know where to turn. (Remember, I've been there!) You probably have seen little or no profit, in fact your business is probably in the red.

Next, most of us will turn to the World Wide Web. Maybe too much information and so many links of promises that their product is the ticket for you. How do you choose?

Well, it comes down to whoever created the best advertisement that draws you in and tells you what you want to here and how this is going to help you and generally in a pretty quick time frame.

I can't tell you how many products I have purchased or strongly concidered that I thought would make my business explode! Don't get caught up in this! If your business hasn't failed yet, It will SOON!

Listen Carefully!

They are doing exacting what you need to be doing for YOURSELF!!!

They're getting customers!


If you have the willingness to make your business work you need an advertisement that will draw customers to YOU!

Millions of people surf the web each and every day! (This is an unlimited source of potential customers!)

Here are some quick tips:

There are only "2" types of advertising; free and paid.(ONLY DO ONE OF THESE AT FIRST- PREFECT IT AND THEN MOVE TO THE OTHER!!) Don't jump all in, common mistake that leads to failure and fustration.
Free advertising: Write and submit articles, start a blog, free classifieds, join forums. Although, these are free (except your time put into them) they generally will take weeks before they produce results for you. But if your on a budget, not a bad way to start.

Paid Advertising: Not as time consuming, but costs money! Pay per Click advertising is probaly the way to go as you only pay for clicks on your ad.
Keep your ad short and simple. (Remember, get potential customers attention in order for them to click on your ad) That's it, if people are clicking on your ad, they are being directed to your affiliate site or link.

Now it sounds simple, but it takes time and effort, trial and error to find what really works. You have to keep up with until you start getting what you want....CUSTOMERS!!!


OTHERWISE........WELL, YOU ALREADY KNOW...

My Thoughts on Affiliate Marketing (MLM) Part 2

Brought to you by JDS Investments, LLC

Continuing on from the last post, I believe that earning a profit is pretty hard to accomplish with affiliate marketing or mlms.

As mentioned earlier, joining one of these programs is easy to do, it is making it profitable is the challenge. The major obstacle is:

HOW DO I GET CUSTOMERS?

Nearly all of these programs upon joining give you a mirror website or your own special link that keeps track of your referrals and sales and this is how you, of course, get paid.

Now, I don't intend on being mean, but most of us (me included) are not high tech network marketers that know everything about the Internet and how it works. (And I don't pretend to either) That being said how are you to get customers?
First, most of us will tell our friends and family with the hopes they will support your new venture. Some may, and that's great, others will think your CRAZY although they may not tell you directly. Sooner than later that supply of contacts is going to run out and that my friends turns into a major problem. You need new customers that want whatever it is you are offering.

This is where home businesses FAIL! You now figure that you need to get the word out generally through some form of advertising. Most of us will first try our local community through signs on the corners of major intersections or maybe through the local newspaper. Both are worth a shot, corner signs usually do not last long as they get taken down after a short period of time, and most newspapers will not allow ads that promote affiliate or mlm (multi-level marketing)to run in their classifieds; so be careful how you word your ads.

Now doing these types of advertising, costs you money; buy, creating, and posting signs or publishing an ad in the newspaper can get pretty expensive therefore their goes any profit you may have been making.

The sad truth is that people dump all their extra money and probably their savings into advertising (I've been there!) trying to make this dream venture work which is admirable but unfortunately, they end up with nothing to show it!

PART #3 on Affiliate Marketing coming SOON!

My Thoughts on Affiliate Marketing (MLM)

Helping Individuals Create Better Futures Today!
Brought to you by JDS Investments, LLC

I'll apologize to anyone that may be offended ahead of time, but this is my thoughts through my experiences about affiliate marketing or mlm (multi level marketing).
Although I'm sure affiliate marketing has its' place in this world, it is not for those seeking full time income from home. Let me explain...

First off, most affiliate programs allow you to join for free or at a very low cost, which is great. They tell stories about people making a bundle of money and how you too can be one of these success stories.

When you join one of these programs, they make it sound easy. That's the game! They lure you in by allowing these success stories and income earning potential that play with your mind. COULD THIS BE ME!!!

I don't know if a person realizes it, but all a person is to them is a GLORIFIED SALES REPRESENTATIVE! You are agreeing to help promote and sell whatever product or service you signed up for!

Now think a minute about it!

The company always wins! Do you know how many individuals you have to sponsor, or how many products and services you have to sell to generate a large enough income to support yourself or your family?

Now how are you going to accomplish this task?

Are you going to go door to door?
Ask family and friends?
Are you going to spend hundreds of dollars trying to get customers to your website or affiliate link?

In the end, will you be successful?

That's the honest question to ask yourself.
Over 90% of home business ventures FAIL!

I hate to break that news to you, but I thought you had the right to know!
