Sure. But you may not like what you hear.

Dave:

You are about to embark on the same "mistake" countless others make...

Trying to use FREE third party hosting and FREE everything else, to SELL a BizOp.

You admit you have a lack of funds and are selling a BizOP at the same time.

What's wrong with that picture?

Hello?

I can't hear you.

Do you really want help or are you just trying to acquire names?

Nope. Haven't checked them out. And neither will I. Reason? Because I don't believe you really want an opinion. How do I know? Because the link you are asking us to check out is YOUR affiliate link. In other words... you are asking our opinion about a company which you have already joined. Hence, we don't believe your question is sincere. Thus, no one answers because they reckon you're just posting to get a link in to your MLM BizOp thing - this is an old old trick and most of the people here (the one's who could give you advice anyway) have been around too long to fall for such "trickery."

You want advice?

Okay...

Stop pushing a BizOp while you're on the financial ropes.

Instead, concentrate on getting customers for your "real" product. Concentrate on getting just one single customer. Then, after you get that one, concentrate on getting just one other customer. After your second customer, concentrate on getting just one more customer. Little steps. One customer at a time. Not by selling an "opportunity" but by selling an actual product. See?

There has been much discussion here about MLM and the fact people are selling the "opportunity" instead of the "product," and why that is backwards.

So you want a few extra bucks?

Besides ACTING on the ideas presented in The Great Ideas Letter (like the recent one where you could actually start and market the biz for a whole month for under $100), why not put a little Vegetarian CookBook together and sell it on consignment in health food stores? You could call it 101 Great Tasting Vegetarian Recipes You Can Make In Less Than 10 Minutes.

Cookbooks are always selling well because people are always buying them. Proven market. Proven product. Can't get no better than that.

Would it work?

TEST it and find out. You might be pleasantly surprised.
