Selling stuff online: is it easy?

With the TripleClicks E-Commerce Associate Program, it's really easy!

Now that I am more familiar with everything TripleClicks has to offer, I want to dedicate this article to its E-Commerce Associate (ECA) Program.

Like many online stores, TripleClicks offers commercial spaces to regular store owners and individuals who make their own products (jewelry, handcrafts, fragrant soaps, aromatic candles, etc.). It is like being part of a gigantic mall with the very best location on Earth: the World Wide Web! 

With over 2 million members, the 'foot' traffic is in the hundreds of thousands, every single day. This means that by becoming an ECA at TripleClicks you can expand your potential customer base and sell your merchandise to anyone, anywhere in the world. Your store will always be visible and your wares will always be on display, 24/7.

Even if you already have your own website, how much traffic do you get every month? Is it in the millions? No? Then you have nothing to lose and everything to gain by expanding your reach through the TripleClicks ECA program.

Why? Because TripleClicks traffic and popularity worldwide continues to skyrocket! According to the Alexa Website statistic tracker, among BILLIONS of Websites, TripleClicks has moved into the top 2,000 most-visited Websites both worldwide and in the US.

Moreover, TripleClicks makes selling your merchandise easy and safe, because it is always monitoring for fraud, takes care of payment processing for you and has over 40 different payment options so you will never have to worry about losing a customer. Some of the great advantages of joining this global community are: 

• It costs nothing to become an ECA; 
• It costs nothing to upload your merchandise;
• It costs nothing to maintain your personal webpage (TConnect page)  

And that's not all! As an ECA at TripleClicks, you have other advantages such as:

• A virtual army of SFI* promoters at your disposal (including me!);
• Countless potential customers who log in to participate in auctions and fun games;
• Thousands of SFI Affiliates who routinely log in to review the 'Latest Items' page.

If you want to expand your horizons and increase your sales, now is the time to act! For more information please take a moment to visit the E-COMMERCE page on my website: moirasmoneymakingmoves.weebly.com, or click here to go straight to the ECA information page at TripleClicks.

This is the Twenty-first Century! It's time you took your sales to a whole new level!

SFI vs Pioneer Trail: have fun making money vs just having fun

When life is good, what more do you need to make your life even better? How about more money? Yes, that would do it!

How I found SFI

I was playing my favorite online game (Pioneer Trail by Zynga), looking for extra gifts on a parallel gift site, when I was rudely interrupted by one of those annoying pop ups. I don't even remember what it was that caught my eye, but instead of continuing on to the gift site, I clicked on the pop up instead. 

It was an article about an online business opportunity at SFI (Strong Future International). The person who wrote the article (who is now my sponsor) was very persuasive and despite having been burned a few times with these online business offers, the way he wrote about SFI piqued my curiosity. I decided to do a Google search and see what dirt I could dig up on this company before I went any further.

There was quite a bit of information out there about SFI. Lots of people with different opinions and experiences, some singing its praises, others not so much, but overall I saw that the good outweighed the bad. I checked the Nebraska BBB and found that the company has a good rating, that it has been around for 15 years, that it's parent company, Carson Services Inc. has been around for even longer, and that it's founder, Gery Carson, is a pretty successful guy with a good reputation. 

After thinking long and hard I realized I really had nothing to lose because it offered four very enticing options for me to join:

• FREE Registration
• FREE Training
• NO pressure to buy anything
• OPT OUT any time

So I joined! and it is the best decision I have ever made! I am now playing another kind of game: a real-life, money-making game. It's as much fun and as absorbing as Pioneer Trail. I dedicate about the same amount of time I used to dedicate to the game, but with SFI  the time and effort I am investing pays real money.

SFI has inspired me to try new things and has shaken me out of my lethargy. In fact, I even started writing this blog and then became more adventurous and created my own website moirasmoneymakingmoves.weebly.com. Those are things I had always wanted to do but never thought I had anything really interesting to write about that might be worth sharing with the rest of the world… until now.

I still visit Pioneer Trail because I miss my homestead and my virtual neighbors, but most of the time I am totally engrossed in the SFI training program. I already have a team of affiliates and I log in every day to do my daily chores, like I would in any normal business, and concentrate on learning how to find more affiliates, teach them how to find their own affiliates and how to promote and sell products from SFI's online store, TripleClicks.

For all of you out there who, like me, dedicate so much time every day to these games which, by the way, require a lot of perseverance, patience and discipline, I would highly recommend you give SFI a try. The attributes you bring to those online games are exactly the same attributes you need to be successful at SFI. And let me tell you that in the long run, the satisfaction and monetary rewards you get at SFI far outweigh the momentary satisfaction of completing a virtual mission.

See you next week!

What is SFI? How can I earn real money there?

SFI is a marketing/sponsoring program like many others. You join for free and you get trained for free. However, at SFI you don't have to drag your family and friends kicking and screaming to join unless they really want to be a part of your business. There are other ways to build a team of like-minded individuals.

SFI gives you a minimum of two affiliates to start building your team as a reward for reaching your first power rank (Executive Affiliate) and continues to give you 2 more each month you maintain that rank. The higher the rank the more affiliates it will give you (I received 52 when I made Bronze Team Leader).

Once you have created your team of affiliates, you teach them to do exactly what you do, and they teach their affiliates to do the same thing, and so on. That's called duplication. With duplication you can be well on your way to earning the best kind of income: long-term residual income.

SFI also has an online store called TripleClicks which has almost 2 million members and more than 5 thousand E-Commerce Associate stores from 161 different countries. TripleClicks offers over 100,000 thousand products for you and your team to promote and sell, as well as fun games and popular auctions that attract a large number of visitors. 

The bottom line is there are many ways you can earn money/commissions at SFI: 

- invite people to become TripleClicks members;

- invite people to become E-Commerce Associates (ECA) at TripleClicks; 

- promote and sell TripleClicks and ECA products; 

- find your own affiliates through paid or free advertising on the web; 

- buy into an affiliate Co-op at SFI or TripleClicks;

- get affiliates assigned to you by SFI;

- win affiliates in TripleClicks auctions.

Finally, SFI also has an optional Pay-Per-Action program which allows you to act as an advertiser for SFI and earn supplemental income by getting people to take actions such as filling out forms. You can earn up to 12 dollars for each qualified sign-up.

Basically SFI has everything you need to start a successful online business, even if you are new to online advertising/marketing. SFI provides the support and training you need and all it asks in return is that you log in every day and do your daily chores just like you would in a regular business. That is how you 'earn while you learn'.

My thirteenth week at SFI

Yep, already my thirteenth week at SFI!

First things first: I did not retain my Bronze Team Leader rank this month but not to worry! I will get it back when the time is right. For now I am content to go back to being Executive Affiliate and working on getting my team up and running.

Now back to this week's business: I must confess that I am as good at online advertising/marketing as I am at being a race car driver or an astronaut: Not even CLOSE! The same goes for understanding the intrinsic meaning of such terms as SEO (Search Engine Optimization), website traffic, Meta data, keywords… you get the picture. 

Although I read as many articles and blogs as I can on these subjects, and let me tell you there are plenty of generous and well-informed people out there who are willing to share their knowledge and experience, I am still confused, befuddled… and bemused.

I realized quite early on that given my shortcomings and in order to grow my SFI team I would need to find some kind of short-cut. As I stated in an earlier blog, I finally did: I found a store inside TripleClicks that sold shares of Personally Sponsored Affiliates (PSAs) from their advertising co-op. So far so good. I got all the PSAs I was promised and some of them are even active!

But now I feel its time to work on getting more people to visit my lovely website (mother's pride talking). Having worked so very hard on it and burned more brain cells than I can afford to lose, it would be a shame to let it languish and die without being seen and appreciated by at least a million visitors… too optimistic? 

I have had quite a few visitors since I launched the site at the end of September and one recent visitor even enrolled and joined my team at SFI! Even so, it is still a sad state of affairs, so this morning, while browsing through TripleClicks, I found another short-cut that will hopefully get me some more sign-ups. This is a store that sells guaranteed targeted website traffic. According to the reviews of my fellow SFIers, they give good service so I plan to try them out next week. 

Although there is no guarantee I will get active members, as long as I can avoid having to plod through traffic exchange sites and free advertising sites every single day, and getting royally spammed in the process, I'm all for trying to channel my potential SFI affiliates and/or TripleClicks members through my one and only website:

Meanwhile, I would appreciate some much needed feed-back on my website, so if you feel in a generous mood, please go check it out and leave a comment.

Thanks and see you next week!
