CASH LEVERAGING – FORTY ACRES AND A MULE

Believe it or not we are victims of Economic Slavery. Waking up and going to that 9 to 5 job or working for Mr. Joe Blow will not get you where you want to be financially? The problem is that we are human beings that have a tendency of getting complacent in whatever activity we are placed in. By this I mean, people get stuck in a rut and if it meets our needs financially, we wallow there and do nothing about it because it serves our purpose at that particular time. If and when we realize, in our misery, that this is just not going to cut it we will begin to look for a better way.

For example: I know we are undergoing hard economic times and there are 1.4 million people on unemployment at this present time. If these same people were offered a job right now to receive the same amount they are receiving on unemployment, do you think they would jump at the opportunity of taking the job? Human nature would prove you wrong if you answered yes to that question.

There are people out there that have turned down jobs offering $900 a week because they just want to stay home with their family. I personally think that the real reason is that they have gotten a taste of being home and don't want to go back to work and put up with their employer's crap.  People are seriously thinking about physically not going back to work when they are reminded that they would have to get up early, get dressed no more PJ's, drive or take public transportation on either crowded freeways or subways and put up with the crowds.  Let's not forget that at the end of the week we would look at your paychecks and see that after Federal, State and City taxes you are left with that hopeless feeling and a still depleted bank account. I know that those are not fond memories, and I could go on, but I will spare you the anguish.

So what is the solution? For some, they will start their dream home business and think of happier times ahead. Some will search for a home based opportunity and won't know where to start. Some will suffer from anxiety, fear or some other malady and spend a great deal of time looking and not be able to find what they want. Some will get scammed and put them back on the road to work for Mr. Boss again. So again I ask, "What is the answer".

We are all looking for that special situation were we could make a good amount of money and do it on our own time and still stay home to do the actual work.

What if I told you that it is more difficult that one may think.  I know that I'm not telling you something that you don't already know. People are looking in droves for that special opportunity that they can be successful doing.  But first you have to eliminate all the scams or pie in the sky offers that are being offered on the net. If you've noticed, people are looking at all sorts of opportunities such as selling energy drinks, health food, diet products, electricity, Avon, selling on eBay, selling rejuvenation products, e-books, and one of my all time favorites affiliate marketing websites and a combination discount shopping and social networking sites.

There is even a big proliferation of Cash Gifting programs. Their mantra seems to be, help others in these troubled economic times by gifting anywhere from $1 to thousands of dollars to other needy or well deserving people. The reality is that they are really lining their own pockets temporarily while promoting a very illegal program.  Cash gifting is illegal. When person gifts money to another with the sole expectation of receiving more money in return that is considered illegal. They unwillingly and sometimes consciously commit a crime and do so through the promotion of the gifting program where their sponsors justify their actions by sugar coating or re-interpreting IRS rulings on Cash gifting.

If people only knew what to look for, wouldn't it make life so much easier?

If you are looking for a method where you can cut through endless dribble of Cash gifting scam-Ville then use the following common sense guidelines.

1. Look for a cash gifting opportunity that has a history of performance. I would suggest a minimum of two years. Don't let the originator be based offshore, like the Caymans or St. Lucia.
2. Make sure that the entity/Company has a mailing address not a P.O. BOX. If you should ever need to get in contact with that company you know where to look. This is how to recognize fly by night companies.
3. Make sure that they have a full support system in place to answer any questions you may have and a good tracking system to keep track of all referrals under you so that you can track payments being made to you directly.
4. Make sure that they are a legal entity: which means that they have a product based structure that incorporates the best features of cash gifting or cash leveraging. The product base is what makes a cash-gifting program a Legitimate Business.  A Program that is gifting for the sake of making money, short term, for their benefit and promoted, as a business is ILLEGAL. What makes cash gifting a legitimate business is the promotion of a true and legitimate product base, which, in reality, is a true benefit because now you have a multiple income stream legitimate business.
5. Make sure that they have a good website with several capture pages and an auto responder to assist in the marketing of the business.
6. Make sure they have different levels or tiers of participation. (For example: $250, $500, $1000 and $2000 entry levels) This allows for a person to participate at an entry level and work their way up to the top tier.
7. Make sure that you are the first one to get paid. The reason I mention this is that in most programs, the sponsor, the introducer, the qualifier or someone else gets paid first before you even see a dime. This should be unacceptable to anybody thinking of taking part in these types of opportunities.
8. You should have the option of receiving your Cash Gifts not only by Federal Express envelopes or UPS envelopes but you should also have the option of receiving cash by direct deposit transfers into your own bank account, Cashiers checks, Money orders, Paypal, Alertpay, Safepay or even Google credit cards payments. This gives the business a solid air of legitimacy not only to you but also your cash gifting business. Remember that if it's a gift under the regulated amount it doesn't matter how it comes in. Yes it's nice to receive cash but money can be received in many forms.
9. Make sure that your sponsor assists you in getting started and answering any questions you may have. This is not to say that you should hound your sponsor to death since this person also has a business to run.

10.Try to find a Cash Gifting or Cash Leveraging opportunity where the company gets none or very little of the cash gifting profits. Profits are different from an Admission fee or Web site hosting fees.

11.Try to find a cash gifting opportunity that has a Residual income component. This makes the cash-gifting program profitable for the long term. This is why the longevity of a program is essential. The longer the cash gifting opportunity has been in business the more residual income the participants are and will be getting.

12.Make sure that the cash gifting opportunity has training for all its new participants. This is essential because the more you know about the business the better you can market it. Your mantra should be "KNOW YOUR BUSINESS".

13.Make sure that there is NO Selling involved in the marketing of this activity.

14.Make sure that the cash gifting opportunity has a complete list of marketing lead generating sites for you to showcase your new opportunity and it should be a combination of free advertising sties and pay sites.  Free sites can be profitable but pay sites sometimes goes the extra mile to expose your business to a more select audience. If Real Estate's mantra is Location, Location, Location the mantra for a cash gifting opportunity should be Marketing, Marketing, Marketing.

15.Keep in mind that if and when you take advantage of a cash gifting opportunity, hopefully a legal one, you never forget that it is a business and it should be treated as such. This means that cash gifting is not a free ride to wealth. You have to work the business to make it a success. Like my grand Dad use to say, "There are no free rides in this life".
