Hi Maa....ya got yer email. I don't have any "Affiliate Programs" set up...yet, but I'm planning to and when it's ready I'll make sure to let you know.

I'm now working on a program to sell Full Color PHOTO Business Cards In
VOLUME. These things sure beat the standard 1 or 2 color cards that look like "Tombstones" (Here Lies Joe Smith and His Business)

The reason I got into this is 2-fold;
1) The prices of Full Color Cards have come way down. ($39 per M)
2) I live in an area of HIGH Unemployment and I look for things that Un-Employed Loggers can do. "Selling Full Color Business Cards for less than $100 per thousand seemed like a "no-brainer".

So...I hooked up with a supplier...put a pitch together and went out with my friend Eric (who was 3 months behind in his house payment and about ready to lose it) I showed Eric how I do it (made 3 quick sales) then had him give the next pitches and after some stumbling around he GOT ONE. (When we got outside he jumped up and down and hugged me)

He sold 4 more orders that afternoon and the next day he sold 12. He's been selling 8 to 16 orders a day ever since...at a profit to him of $100 per order (he makes $50 on every re-order) And...yes...he saved his house AND...he's planning on paying it off in the next few mos.

I also taught a "Single Mom" how to get orders for these and she's now doing the same volume....8 to 16 boxes a day (One day last week she sold 28 boxes to 2 real estate offices)

Anyway...this looks like it could be a Biggie. I found that there's a company selling a "Color Card" program BUT...their fee is 10 Grand...TEN THOUSAND SMACKOLAS. I have NO connection with them...in fact the rep keeps calling me wondering WHEN I'm going to send in my 10G's. Ha!
Here's the Link just to "prove my case"... http://www.businesscardexperts.com

Take care....Don Alm...Roseburg, Oregon

NOTICE TO SCUMBEEZLES
(you know who you are... you scream "Foul!" when the truth comes out)
        PLEASE READ THIS LEGAL NOTICE CAREFULLY BEFORE YOU FILE A LAWSUIT OR EVEN WASTE TIME THINKING ABOUT IT.  It has been done before, but never successfully.  In fact, the last dodobird who tried it ended up being ordered to pay more than $77,000 in attorney fees ($65,000+ to my attorneys and $12,000+ to my co-defendant's legal advisor).
        If your attorney is worth his salt, he's going to tell you that the expense of filing a lawsuit you can't win is a whole lot worse than any "damages" resulting from messages posted on this insignificant little chunk of cyberspace.
        NEWS FLASH:  I didn't just climb down off that ol' turnip truck yesterday.  I'm well aware that expressing a negative opinion, relating one's personal experience, and restating provable facts are all legal in this country and do not constitute libel, slander, or defamation -- so you don't want to play games with me, and you sure don't want to start something you aren't prepared to finish.  I don't take threats lightly, and I don't accept bribes (or did you call it a "mutually-beneficial arrangement"?).  I'll turn you in faster than you can yell, "ARREST ME, I'M SCUM!!" 
        Do yourself a favor and turn your legal team loose in greener pastures.

        Although we may, from time to time, monitor or review discussions, postings and the like on the Friends In Business (Scams 101) Message Board, we are under no obligation to do so.  We are not responsible or liable for any claim arising from the content of any such discussions or postings or for any error, defamation, libel, slander, omission, falsehood, obscenity, pornography, profanity, danger, or inaccuracy contained in any information contained within such locations on the Site.
        You are prohibited from posting or transmitting any unlawful, threatening, libelous, defamatory, obscene, scandalous, inflammatory, pornographic, or profane materials or any material that could constitute or encourage conduct that would be considered a criminal offense, give rise to civil liability, or otherwise violate any law.  You are likewise prohibited from posting any false claims against any company or individual.  We will fully cooperate with any law enforcement authorities or court order requesting or directing us to disclose the identity of anyone posting any such information or materials.
        By posting messages and/or content on the Friends In Business (Scams 101) Message Board, you give permission for Lesley Fountain/Friends In Business/Shoestring Success Publications to display, distribute and use the posting and content for publication, advertising, promotion, excerption or example. You grant Lesley Fountain/Friends In Business/Shoestring Success Publications complete, perpetual, but non-exclusive rights to use, archive, reproduce, adapt, modify, distribute, sub-license, repurpose, rework, compile, or offer for sale or resale the messages, postings or content appearing on this site in whole or in part, throughout the world and universe, on a royalty-free basis without remuneration.  If you cannot accept or agree with the terms of service for this website and discussion board, you are advised not to post on this board.
        In closing, I would like to remind you once again that it is still legal, in this great country of ours, to express a PERSONAL OPINION, as long as it is presented as opinion and not as fact.
        And finally, all you scammers out there will do well to remember that TRUTH IS AN ABSOLUTE DEFENSE against charges of libel, defamation, and slander... so if you're operating just a hop, skip, and jump ahead of the law, you might want to think twice before doing anything stupid... (AND SHAME ON YOU!!).
