Email Audit Day 2

Today I managed to clear away one of the business's three email accounts, taking down all the useful information and "hidden" pass-codes I had forgotten about. I still have two more to go!

I will be going on vacation to camp this weekend...and the way my workload has been, I am going to need it! :-)

Meanwhile I have asked Director Mize to do some necessary background research so that I can customize my offerings to his source company.

My list of affilliated companies/ websites has already grown to 25 or better within only the first month. This seems as if it would normally be enough to sustain a small professional/consulting practice, if the business repeated regularly. But that is in the offline world.

The downside: Each of these companies now has me on a daily round of auto-responder messages.

The secret: Each of the companies I have kept is potentially a separate stream of referrals and income. Each of these streams is also potentially unlimited.

My strategy: OVERKILL.

FACT: I need to make at least $2000/Mo. before I can re-invest in any part of this business. That's how I arrived at the figure of 1000 clients. I only need a single $2.00 sale from each of my company/ clients each month to do that.

The first half-million dollars ($500,000) is almost guaranteed by the offers I already have on the table. Don't believe me? Catch this...

1000 listed companies... =
1000 Wolfpack Elite Directors... (X)
First 100 Pack Leaders sign for Main Site Contact Rotation,
with each Pack Leader taking JUST ONE $5.00 sale....

GRAND TOTAL: $500,000 !

That is literally the most conservative estimate I can make.
It also assumes that no one, ever, will join more than one single income stream.

Some of the real numbers will vary...I have at least one program which issues $50 commissions on every sale. Some referrals are only worth a few cents each.

The fact is, I don't expect to have anyone's attention for more than the few seconds it takes to sign up for a single income stream.

But I would remind you, that this is what I know TODAY.

Success,

Wolfspyder

FMl-021:EzineBlaze

Right now I am just tinkering with my current draft stack, clarifying FML numbers for previous entries in order to make room for the new ones...anyhow, EzineBlaze is Free Money Link #021.

Serious Email Audit :Day 1

So far I have well over 350 emails to process today from my four different email addresses.
I have developed at least 20 different Client Company relationships, not all of which are listed at the main site.

Most of these emails represent bits and peices of work I have already done in the past.
These are scattered all over the net, waiting to be gathered and centralized at the Main Site.

I have taken to a policy of locking off comments to areas of the site which appear complete and current relative to their place in the project. I need to do this because it gives me a benchmark for which of my 999 Wolfpack Elite Directorates remain open.

This is the most dangerous and work-intensive part of the whole project, because I still have no verifiable traffic or comments.

"Lurkers" are dangerous. Eventually, I won't mind the "Looky-Lou" surfers strolling by, because my orginal target in the $5,000,000 Quest will have been met.

Concept #5: Build As You Go

After only about three weeks, I have established certain routines for my developing business.

1. Use one primary email address only for personal or Business-to-Business transactions, without pubicizing it.

2. Commit to making at least one new contact AND one new post for the main site, every day.

3. Keep valid records for every contact, in every program.

4. By the time I have analyzed 1001 Terms of Service agreements, my skills in interpreting each agreement and what it does, or does not, allow me to do, are guaranteed to improve.

5. Leave the mistakes IN each entry, with corrections as and where necessary.

6. Process new email first, then go to the draft stack. Try to complete at least one draft each day.

7. Never back out on a commitment. Commitments are the stuff that solidifies your business plan and your reputation.

8. Personal responsibility trumps legal responsibility every time.

9. Build as you go. Visualize the working solution in your mind, as deeply as possible...then reverse-engineer to discover the details.

10. Never, ever, ever, be afraid to ask, or answer, specific questions.







FML-018: Stormpay Payment Processing

Today (09-07-2004) I submitted a request to Stormpay support, to see if my account can be re-activated, or whether I simply need a new account altogether. Once the account management issue is settled, this will be time enough to affilliate with them.

FML-017: Build A Free Site Without HTML Skills!

Here is another free website building tool. It's nice to have a customizable "doorway" page which can then be promoted on other programs.

FML-016:How To Become a Wolfpack Elite Director

So far I have only one Wolfpack Elite Director out of about 14 developed market slots.
By the time the Wolfpack Elite slots are filled, my commitment is to have at least 100,000 users. Of course, by then the site will probably have migrated to its own domain-level address.

Right now, I know I am "small time," and I don't apologize for placing all of my affilliate links here in a crazy hodge-podge. Patience is part of the game. Author, film-maker and artist Julia Cameron taught me that once and for all. Creatively speaking, the key to being able to do anything well, is first being willing to do it badly.

Right now, I am looking for only 1000 people. To find those 1000 people, I will probably be investigating at least 2000-5000 companies and links. Once again, an investment of time and patience.

In order to become a Wolfpack Elite Director, you have to be one of the first 1000 people ever to see the site and then take positive action in support of it.

So far, there are only two ways to do this.

1. Join one of my paid Client Programs, and leave a testimonial comment.

Notice please, that I said "PAID" client program. I cannot and will not offer this partnership opportunity to someone who is not motivated or serious enough to do at least some of their own work. If you believe that this project is simply a blatant exercise in self-promotion, then I can almost guarantee that you will miss out by failing to actively participate.

What I am doing here is creating opportunity. The fact is that if my audience does not participate, then it would not matter if I offered only 1000 such opportunities,or 10,000 or 100,000, or even 1000,000.

The same people trapped by get-rich-quick thinking will all fail to see the value in these companies and programs, and leave themselves vulnerable to the next con artist, with the next set of empty promises.

Why am I offering these 1000 Wolfpack Elite Directorates?
Because I want my research to be thorough and effective for every single user of this site.
Right now the entire project is vulnerable, because I cannot possibly leverage my time and resources enough to understand every detail of every program.

I don't have time to refine every detail, on every site, in a 1000-site empire.
So the first person to commit actively to promoting each program is automatically positioned to be in charge of that program for my entire company.

Then they promote their own opportunity to just one more person. That person becomes one of only 100 select individuals in the Wolfpack Elite. That Elite Member then becomes the sponsoring contact for the next person...and because I am teaching all of my promotional techniques for free, their individual business opportunity just became 1000 times more powerful!

That is why I offer these positions...to reward the first people willing to make a responsible effort to know, promote, and use these affilliate companies in the fashion intended by their owners and designers.

2. FIND a BRAND NEW Client Program and submit it to me for review.



One of these days, I am absolutely certain to run into someone who knows a lot more about site design, marketing, or the promotion of a specific new opportunity than I do. When that happens, of course, I will actively want to participate with and learn from that individual and benefit from their knowledge.

I built this project to create its own accelleration toward success.
The Wolfpack Elite Directorate actually represents a limit on the scope of my own time and efforts.

The concept is much simpler than it may look from your end of the mouse.

How many times have you seen someone compile a successful book called,

"1001 ways to...?"

Well, that is what I am doing here, too.

Chances are that if I can find at least 1000 different, successful internet opportunities, I will, over the life of the project, have helped somewhere between 100,000 and 1000,000 different people to reach the kind of successes they had never thought possible.

This is a bare minimum estimate.

I have one question for you...would knowing enough about your field to help at least 1000,000 people become more successful, qualify as the kind of knowledge worth paying for?

That's what I thought. That is why I know you are going to help me sooner or later.
Drop me a line at:

wolfspyder100@yahoo.com

so we can discuss the details.

Meet Bryan Mize (Director 014)

I market a business for people who want the freedom to choose their own alifestyle and income, like I did.Years ago I worked for Xerox.(tm) Then I was hit and crippled by a drunk driver. Xerox and social security still pay a portion of my former income but I wanted to work and earn for myself again, to earn more than mydisability.

An ordinary 8-5 job was out of the question because of my disability.
Then I heard about MLM and this company. I could work my own hours. I could support others who wanted the same freedom and responsibility that I wanted, as they developed their own businesses. I could stop working when I had reached my desired income, or I could keep working and "see how high I could go." This is MLM.

I wanted an American company, a great company I knew and trusted. I found this one.

I now work a few hours a day. I have the freedom to enjoy my life whileI'm working, and enjoy it when I'm not. I have the ability to help others attain their own dreams. I enjoy helping many people on many different levels.

Do you know anyone who might like to know about business like that?

If so, please email me at: cholesteroldown@catholic.org

Weekly Update #4: Permissions and Slips

Wonderful discoveries made today. Now Blogger is itself, actively publicizing in their own support materials, just how easy it can be to secure a book deal... If I am lucky, all I will get from Eric Case/Biz Stone is a shrug. If I am insanely lucky, that might turn into a more proactive "Go For It!"

Director Bryan Mize has certainly caught the vision, even though he knows even less about HTML coding than I do. My roommate is so excited that she is already half way through her research for a book of 101 Family Recipies, just so she can feel that she has made a valid contribution to the project.

I got a very nice email from science fiction author and humorist, Spider Robinson,
and an auto-response from a Robert A. Heinlien archive.

I went through my first-ever spammer attack this week...and three of my four email accounts are full-to-bursting with valuable Free-To-Join resources.

So far I have 15 different money-making links open, after only the first month.

The $5,ooo,000 Net-Quest continues, but so far it is being slowed down by an increasing work stack.

I commit myself to make at least one new post every day, and the rest of my workload follows from that. Amazingly, there are only two or three unfinished drafts in the stack just now...the rest of the work flows from the need to modify parts of the other relevant sites.

I am still working from a five-year plan developed with the aid of Brian Tracy's Ultimate Goals Program, available at http://www.nightingale.com.

If that sounds a little intimidating, I still strongly recommend Julia Cameron's book, The Artist's Way. If you've heard of it before, you'll probably recognize the value in surfing over to Aiyo (FML#003) and spending $15.00 USD (or even less!) to learn some of her creative techniques.

The truth is, no two paths to real wealth are exactly alike.
If you think that I am after your money, you are sadly mistaken, and all my work won't be all that much help to you. By the time the pessimists in my audience finish reading through everything they think is wrong with the site (or the book) I will already have succeeded.

Right now, all I am doing is trading TIME for CONTACTS. The money will follow from that.

The secret: a valuable exchange happens whenever someone can successfully trade ANY ONE of the 3 True Currencies for a successfully rebalanced amount of EITHER or BOTH of the other two.

More about that next week.

SUCCESS!

Result: My First Spam Report

So far I have at least ten or fifteen Mailer-daemon (Mail Delivery Subsystem) notices as the attack continues. By now it has been reported to both ends of at least one web-strand.

This is one of four legal, registered email accounts I own. The other three have not been hit.
In a way I want to thank these hacker jerks...they have just helped me make the book MUCH more interesting and forced my learning curve to accelerate exponentially.

This is part of what I love about blogging...I am actively participating in defense of my own computing resources. In the four weeks since the project began, I have learned much, much more about the internet than I am able to discuss in any single post.

Update: 5:56 PM Central Time: I have now filed at least 67 separate counts of "Failed Delivery" and Auto-responder "bounce" spam notices.

Once again...these do NOT connect to me. I do not have the skills. I am under the direct observation of an internet-illiterate room-mate for anywhere between 12-16 hours a day.
I took the precaution of advising an independant third party in another state, from the moment I made my reports.

Tracking the aftermath will be a fascinating experience.

Wolfspyder

Update (08-24-04): Recieved this response from a representative at my email provider (which I am not going to directly mention here for security reasons...)

*************************************************************************************
Someone has forged, your e-mail address as the “reply-to” or "from" field on a piece of unsolicited e-mail. This does not require the person to log into the account. Most likely, it was either a typographical error on the sender's part. Some individuals sending unsolicited e-mail use bulk mail programs that forge headers onto the e-mail. Some of these programs combine the recipient’s account name or e-mail address with another domain name to try and make it appear more authentic. This bypasses some filters because the message appears to originate from the recipient's own account. They also try to trick people by taking the name of the recipient’s account and forging it into the header with another domain name to try and make it appear more authentic.
**************************************************************************************
Many other anti-spam precautions were suggested in this email, which for reasons of project security, I will of course not discuss here. My apologies that until the book project is completed, I will not be able to provide proper attribution for this quote, but I still wish to thank this individual for their assistance.

WolfSpyder

Question: Am I a Hacker Target?

About four weeks into the project, I am discovering an influx of e-mail from places I have never heard of. I have to assume that some hacker ring(s) are targeting me. I'm more than a little paranoid that way.

The reason I am logging this now, is that I have established a strategy which will not allow any such thing to succeed.

It's too bad that a lot of these hackers cannot read English.
Emails are coming in from all over Europe, to a REGISTERED but UNLISTED address of mine at MSN.com.

Many of them are using falsified header information (mismatched to my address.)

My PRIMARY (ISP) address has changed within the last two days.

The Mail Delivery Subsystem at MSN is pointing them back to me, perhaps in response to my ANTI-SPAM articles, which were among the FIRST things I posted.

I encourage anyone who is actually reading this to report this incident to the above link at:
http://www.spamcop.com

I am also a subscriber to the Ethics Pledge of the International Webmaster's Association.

I track every contact in real time as best I possibly can.

Blogspot is staffed with world-class systems developers.
MSN has lawyers who work for one of the richest men on the planet.

Google will take notice.
Yahoo will take notice.
IWA will take notice.

That says nothing of any local authorites here in MN.
Rehab.
FBI.
Interpol.

You, whoever you hackers are, just ticked off at least 15 major internet companies, some of them international.

I suspect you will be caught within minutes after this post...and even if you aren't, my contracts will eventually extend across 1000 different servers. Legally.

You are SOOOO toasted.

Bye Bye! I have shopping to do. My room-mate's Renter's Refund just arrived...something that only happens to us WELFARE RECIEPIENTS.

One thing I know for sure...with skills like yours, I wouldn't have to waste my time on spamming anyone.

Putting My House In Order

Another one of my new disciplines is to try my best to see to it that there is at least one link to the site(s) I am talking about, in every post I make. Right now, I know I am not getting a lot of traffic, because so far, none of my links are reciprocal.

I write each post every day as if millions of people were already reading me and demanding answers. I write at least one post per discovery. I keep writing until I am the one who has discovered something new, just as I was taught the technique by Julia Cameron in her best-selling book, The Artist's Way.

Little by little, step by step, the site builds itself using the wonderful Blogger WYSIWYG editor.
All I knew when I started was that I needed to organize my affilliate links...a discovery all it's own that I made when losing all control of my own income made me angry enough to try something, anything, to make more.

Today, I know that I am supposed to write a book.
I still don't know anything much about HTML. The banners you see are included in each post as a result of simple "cut and paste" instructions from each of my affilliate company websites.
I don't even know enough HTML yet, to be confident about building a links list into my sidebar.

Today I have an audience of ONE person who knows about the site and has bookmarked it.
But I know that I am growing...because the list of things I have to do to effectively handle my...oh wow, is it really that many? My 15 different websites...

...is growing by the moment.
THAT is why time is on my side. That is why I don't have to use pop-ups or pressure tactics. That is why I don't even care if you join any of my programs. I'm here to write a book, and demonstrate to you both what I know, and how I know it.

Today, I am going to start at the beginning of that to-do list, which is 23 steps long and growing.
Today, I am going to call my Internet Service Provider, and take control of my "real" email address, and learn all I can about configuring my email handler.

Tomorrow I will be posting about Freeservers and the new edits to my "Doorway Page."

Slowly, slowly, all my programs and referral links will begin to become cross-referenced to one another. Time enough for traffic on another day.

The Things I Will Not Do...

1. I will not spam.
2. I will not include any promotion for an otherwise illegal product.
3. I will not include any company or person in this project who denies active consent and permission to be included, for any reason whatever.
4. I will not include pop-ups or pop-unders at the main site.
5. I will not promote adult content, gambling, or randomizer games.
6. I will not actively permit use of any Wolfspyder's Wolfpack site by any person under 13 years of age, or otherwise unable to give full contractual consent.
7. I will not hesitate to report any member of Wolfspyder's Wolfpack to Client Management personnel or other relevant authorites for any violation of this code of conduct.

Putting on the Brakes...

Today's downside discovery: out of the 37 posts registered by Blogger, I have discovered at least 22 DIFFERENT steps toward the efficient promotion of the site that I forgot.

So it's time to backtrack a little before introducing any more new programs...

And I have them. Believe me, I have them. Last estimate I made, I had about *80* different links to process ALREADY.

That means that if I wanted to use all the programs I already know about, I would be 10% DONE with the project...all that WITHOUT even logging into programs like ScreenBlaze which continually introduce new ones!

In fact, if I can even get the simplest "ping" messages back from some of the support people I have ALREADY contacted, I could probably scare up ANOTHER 10 or 20...WITHOUT any of the VIRAL MARKETING systems.

All that within only 3 weeks, without any endorsements.
PART TIME.

I *LOVE* the internet business!

Result-Terms & Definitions

Bryan Mize and I had a good long conversation in email today.

He was a little confused about some of my offers, so I realized that I need to define them for the rest of the site, as well.

Result-Fishing in the Mailbox

Even though I don't have any significant traffic yet, things are definitely heating up. How can I tell? Because the volume of email I process each day is increasing. I am being offered "free" ebooks by the dozen...

The problem with that is that some or most of the most interesting links within the "expert" books go dead after only a few weeks or months, while thousands of copies of the ebook explaining why you "just gotta have" this or that particular application are STILL being sold and generating royalties!

One thing I have discovered for sure: If you are a small entrepreneur trying to do things lean amd mean, then Bill Gates does NOT want your business.

MSN/Hotmail accounts are being refused by a lot of list providers as not being "real" email addresses...they also want to FORCE you to buy extra storage space, by not leaving enough space for even basic, non-commercial e- mail traffic unlesss you check several times a day.

Yahoo is somewhat better, since they currently offer 100 Megs per person. Even then, it's necessary to be sure you have checked your address filters to specifically allow any of your partner companies to send through the messages you want.

As for me...today I have a couple of drafts on the spike waiting to be finished, and I still have a lot of fishing to do in my own email accounts to find the programs best suited to this site.

I do my best to make sure that each new program has it's own FML number, and that the posts in that area are reflecting the most current information possible.

Thanks for your patience.

Result-Translating CAN-SPAM Part II

Section 4 (Paraphrase): What Spammers Do That's Illegal...

In General: Title 18, Section 1037 (Fraud & Related Activities in Connection with Electronic Mail)

Good News... According to this section of the CAN-SPAM ACT, the FIRST thing any spammer does is HIDE their identity!

I have no intention of doing that, since I am involved in the production of my own creative/intellectual property.

What I have realized several posts later (09-02-2004) is that it might be more practical to close out this article and discuss spam protection in another one. Of course, the government has certain specific requirements according to this act and others, which must be followed in each instance of commercial email.

Most notably, it is necessary to provide in each commercial email post:

1. An opt-in/relationship/once only statement.
This is why a lot of high-volume commercial emailers have gone to solutions such as IP address tracking and "confirmation emails" for "double-opt-in" lists. A given firm is allowed to send you as much email as necessary, at regular intervals, in order to inform about, upgrade, or complete, any transactions which you have already decided to make with them.

2. A "clear & conspicuous" way to opt OUT of recieving further messages.
"Clear & conspicuous" generally means that the opt-out language appears as a header or footer paragraph to the main body of the message...because making someone read the actual BODY of the message is part of the potential SPAM OFFENSE!

3. A VALID PHYSICAL CONTACT ADDRESS somewhere in the offline world. PO boxes are fine if you don't want to use a home address. What this comes to is that the authorities, and your customers, should easily know how to find you if they want you.

If you need more information on applicable spam laws, use the above title link.

Result- Getting Legal

Let's get something straight right now...I know there are places where parts of my sites are still technically illegal. For instance, I have no business license, local, state, or otherwise, no "entity structure," no lawyer protecting me or the site.

As of Friday, August 13, 2004...

Here's the situation: I am a private citizen, running a single cable modem, and a reasonably high-end Gateway (tm) computer, out of my own one-bedroom apartment. I got the hardware from a vocational rehabilitation agency in New York, just a few months before academically crashing out of SUNY and moving to Minnesota.

A personal friend, acting in a single evening, packed the computer, along with all it's hardware and the associated cable modem, into several boxes for later shipment here to Minnesota.

When I left New York, in January 2004, I soon found out that I had no direct access to any of my own income, because as of the previous October, I had been railroaded into "Representative Payee" status by the administrators of the "Level II" housing/independance apartment I was living in.

Legally, this meant that there was a presumption of incompetence held against me and my finances...which arose because of the agency's attempt to bill ME for $9,600 in "independence training" I NEVER NEEDED, and which should have been covered by
SOCIAL SECURITY DISABILITY INSURANCE (SSDI) anyway.

The agency had failed to check their facts.
I do not now, and never have, qualified for SSDI.
I do not now, nor have I ever, needed a Representative Payee.
I was never given ANY form of "due process" OR advocacy before this decision was made.
I was interviewed EXACTLY ONCE by an "objective" psychologist who worked FOR the SAME agency.

People who treated me with RESPECT had a nasty habit of getting FIRED within 24 hours afterward.

I LOST food stamps because my income had gone up ON PAPER as a result of entering the program. I got a $2000 piece of DURABLE MEDICAL EQUIPMENT that BROKE after NORMAL USE on the VERY FIRST DAY...

WHEN I GOT THE COMPUTER, I WAS "FORCED" TO BUY (ACTUALLY RENT) A CABLE MODEM SO THAT MY SOCIAL SERVICE SUPPORT TEAM DIDN'T PANIC...OTHERWISE THEY COULD NEVER REACH ME, BECAUSE MY PHONE WAS TOO BUSY!

THE FEES I WAS BEING CHARGED WERE (SUPPOSEDLY) AN ADDITIONAL EXPENSE FOR "COST OF CARE," COMPLETELY APART FROM MY RENT. NOBODY HAD ME ABOUT THESE ADDITIONAL FEES.

WHEN I QUALIFIED FOR SCHOOL FINANCIAL AID, I WAS NEVER TOLD HOW TO PROTECT MY SUNY TUITION MONEY FROM BEING COUNTED AGAINST ME AS INCOME....AND THE AGENCY WANTED IT FOR THEMSELVES, TO SATISFY MY SO-CALLED "BACK-DEBT."

I TRIED, ONCE, PAYING THE AMOUNT QUOTED IN THE "COLLECTIONS LETTER"...AND FOUND THAT MY BILL FOR THAT MONTH HAD BEEN ADJUSTED. UPWARD!

I WAS RULED "PSYCHOLOGICALLY UNFIT" TO HANDLE MY OWN MONEY, ALL BECAUSE, INSTEAD OF PAYING THE NON-PROFIT AGENCY MY *ENTIRE INCOME* EACH MONTH, I CHOSE TO PAY MY VISA(TM) BILL ON TIME.


THIS IS JUST ONE EXAMPLE OF WHY I HATE BEING ON WELFARE!

Right now, I know that Blogger or any of the other 1001 webmasters I want to list on this project could pull the plug. And if I make even one false move...generate even ONE piece of UCE/SPAM, and somebody lodges a complaint, I could face felony prosecution or a CLASS ACTION SUIT.

I STILL OWE THAT VISA(TM) BILL.
I DON'T EVEN KNOW HOW FAST IT'S GROWING...LAST I LOOKED, IT WAS APPROACHING $7,000, AT AN A.P.R. OF ABOUT 33% !

I STILL OWE SEVERAL THOUSAND DOLLARS IN TUITION MONIES TO SUNY.
I STILL OWE ABOUT $200 TO TIME-WARNER (TCI) FOR THE "STOLEN" CABLE MODEM HARDWARE. I EVEN STILL OWE MY FRIEND THE SHIPPING FEES FOR THE REST OF MY MOVING BOXES.

When I came to Minnesota, I had only about two weeks to establish new housing, because otherwise New York could rule me a fugitive.

I left the majority of my personal effects back in that New York apartment, including about $250 worth of creative teaching books that later vanished without a trace, despite my explicit, notarized legal instructions to the contrary.

Thankfully I was able to overturn the Representative Payee status, after a three-month wait.

Imagine my surprise when I was told that my SSI income was frozen, and I couldn't even report the change in my address to Social Security, until I had established a LEGALLY UN-NECESSARY REPRESENTATIVE PAYEE all over again, here in Minnesota!


Is anybody beginning to see why I am doing this?

Why I am so hungry to act as a PRIVATE CITIZEN, instead of a DRONE who waits around all day BEING some social worker's PAYCHECK?

The secret that the administrators of this independence program never knew, was that I had discovered a little-known loophole in the SSI rules...a certain kind of investment strategy, that would protect me from ever losing benefits until I was ready.

I'll tell that secret in another post.

Right now, I need CONTACTS.

1. I need webmasters who can spot what I might be doing wrong on the site, and can teach me how to correct it.

2. I need surfers who can spot the site and leave constructive comments.

3. I need customers who WANT to do business with my Third Party Providers.

4. I need reputable Third Party Contractors who RESPECT what I am trying to do.

5. I need ISP's who actively WANT the FREE publicity I can offer them.

6. If you don't like what I am doing, I need you to TELL me, so that we can work it out BEFORE you sue me.

I've already stipulated to my situation, exactly as it is, in real-time. If you want me, you know where I am:

Concept # 3: Use Other People's Leverage

Today I have been reviewing how quickly my leverage has been building.
I can already see that I need to backtrack a little, so that I can most effectively cross-link one program into another.

After only 11 days in this month, I have :

30 different posts...

3 different email accounts...

$ 3.84 in a Paypal account...

10 different Wolfpack Directorates open...

1 Directorate FILLED: Congratulations to BRYAN MIZE! :-)

At least 2 separate CON JOBS by spammers!

So much for the idea that nobody is reading me.

I just keep writing, and the experiment keeps growing on it's own.
All this is just the tip of the iceberg. I haven't even tapped any of the leverage I could get by asking for permission to mention anyone else yet.

Let alone comparing any primary marketing programs.

The Downside: I am deathly afraid that the first person who will actually COMMENT on the site will be a regulator or a SPAM COP.

The Secret...just keep doing the work.
What I know is that I can't possibly burn one of the BIG BOYS until I have a lot more traffic to this site myself.

The legal reality is that it would be more expensive for everyone concerned, including the State, to keep me in some form of lockdown, then to let me succeed as a private citizen.

My name is Francis X. Carmody IV.
At date-of-post, I reside at:
405 North 5th Street
Apartment 224
Mankato, MN 56001 USA

Email: quietlad65@yahoo.com
(Additional addresses On Request)
ICQ #: 314-146-232
PH: (507) 344-0981
(PRIVATE HOME: Please Call between 9:00 A.M. and 9:00 P.M. CST ONLY, Thank you.)

Anyone is welcome to comment on the site, by any of these means.
Anything a webmaster doesn't like, I can pull off the site within seconds.

FML-014: Learn to Control Your Cholesterol!

Great news!
As promised, my good friend Bryan Mize has just joined our project team!

Bryan was the first person ever to introduce me to the magic of Leverage: the science of using Other People's Money to encourage your own prosperity.

Bryan has special access to a full line of household, personal care, and nutritional products which are second to none, and has agreed to help my readers build their own part-time, full-time, online or offline businesses starting from just $35!

Sounds good, right?
Well, it gets even better!
Bryan has just obtained Wolfpack Directorate number 0014 in my own organization...

So the first 100 people to call him and fulfill registration to build their businesses with him will be listed with the Dreamscapers1000 Group for FREE, and gain lifetime access privileges to the entire site, forever. I will also ROTATE the CONTACT ADDRESS for this directorate to build YOUR downlines every month...and NO ONE ELSE, EVER, will get that kind of Main Site Access!

FML-012: Wolfsurfer Traffic Suite

Here's another traffic-builder suite that I discovered a few months ago. Until I put it on to Blogger, I had no traffic or even the faintest idea of how to put together an email ad! :-)

Why do I keep building these links if I am actually expecting hundreds or thousands of hits?
Why am I doing it for FREE? Why am I taking that kind of RISK?
Because I have nothing to lose.

Remember, my focus for this project is NOT on my commissions from ANY GIVEN PROGRAM. I do all my own tracking...I write almost all my own material. If you, the webmaster, don't like what you see, I'll pull it. I'll find another provider. It's as simple as that.

Time is on my side...
As I write this post, I still haven't recieved one single phone call, one single personal email, in reference to any of these listed programs.

I don't need $5,000,000 any time soon. I don't really need anything more than about $2,500 a month in "extra" income to break off of SSI for good! But I have other commitments to meet, as well.

I don't know a lot about web design either.
I hope I do know something about writing...but that is part of what I am trying to prove to myself.

Maybe Wolfsurfer can be the break I need. Or part of it.

If you come to this site from a Wolfsurfer link, I invite you to leave a comment. In the meantime, I'm going to continue linking until I have PROOF that something works.

FML-010:CBclicks

Here is a program promising viral and international signup coverage...as for me, I am not too sure how anybody gets paid doing this one...but the good news is that since I am only a week into my $5,000,000 Quest I should be able to keep you updated!

The only known downside: this program requires you to become a Clickbank Affilliate first for tracking purposes. (See FML#009)

http://www.cbclicks.com/?pid=wolfspyder

FML-009: Clickbank

Here's another way to play with the BIG BOYS!
Most of the actual products on these sites WILL require fees, but exposure for your site can go international in a hurry.

ClickBank is also a great example of a portal program...by accessing this program, you actually have potential for revenues from thousands of different information products...too many to list here.

FML-008: Paypal Loves Me!

Progress...I've been putting my LEGAL NOTICES in some new places today, including my PROFILE on the main site.

I'll be talking about PAYMENT PROCESSORS very soon now.

Weekly Update #2: Gathering Momentum

In the last week, I have made about 19 different posts.
I have also discovered how to "cut and paste" various affiliate links into the site.
I have found more affilliate programs than I can shake a stick at.

But I have also discovered a major design flaw in the project.

The people who run the major affilliate programs want various kinds of contractual controls.
My government wants even more, so that I can be found "in compliance" with applicable contract law in several different jurisdictions at once.

I believe in self-educating.
I also believe in being sure that this project can PAY FOR ITSELF.
Right now the article on the CAN-SPAM Act of 2003 is giving me fits.
I have never before analyzed a 26-page document to a professional audience.

So I am going to make a commitment to STOP POSTING to the main site until I have CAN-SPAM/2003 DOWN PAT.

Opinion: Safelists: An Answer to SPAM?

This is an article I have been promising myself that I would do for quite a while. That's why the FML Number is so high...after only three weeks or so, I have found at least 15 other ways to promote my $5,000,000 Quest.

Today I tried to log into Audioblogger, and discovered a "Personal Use Only" clause in their contract. Maybe that is why I can't log into the Audioblogger site right now. I have a request in to Blogger Support to find out, but just like the first one, so far they are too busy for me.

I will keep trying. I don't want to be uncivil, let alone defamatory.

The way I first discovered safelists a few months ago was amazing.
I already knew a few things about the Network Marketing/MLM concept. but I was surprised to find out that people would actually PAY ME just to read email!

In this age of INFORMATION OVERLOAD, a SAFE-LIST is supposed to be the exact opposite of SPAM/UCE. This is a list where people can submit their email for FREE, and say, "PLEASE advertise your product to me!"

The OWNER of the safelist then SELLS his ad-space to the first interested advertiser, and CUTS READERS of the list IN on the PROFITS! He tracks who has read which ad by tying it to a small HTML LINK within each email. The coding process is very simple, so sometimes the emails sent out have only one link, and some have up to a dozen or more.

The downside: The large majority of safelists are mostly cannibalistic...
Advertisers get a few hundred or a few thousand names, and then spend most of their time and effort on advertising to one another about the "newest" guy with the SUPER-DUPER MONEY LIST at Dewey- Chitzya-Andhouch Ltd!

HOW BORING IS THAT? ARE YOU PREPARED TO READ THROUGH THAT SAME KIND OF COPY, DAY AFTER DAY, LIST AFTER LIST, FOR UP TO A MONTH OR MORE?

EVEN WORSE are SAFELIST AUTO-SUBMITTERS..."automatic" software bots that find 10,000, 20,000 or 50,000 LISTS to submit to ALL AT ONCE!

The THEORY:
$25 in "commissions" or "signing bonus" X 10,000 LISTS= $250,000, RIGHT?

WRONG!

THE PROBLEM: Effectively, a badly-configured auto-submitter can PUT YOU IN THE SPAMMING BUSINESS...

The owner of the list paid $500-$1500 or more for her "script" program which controls the list.
She is still in the business to make money, right? She has two ways to do this:
1) sell her ad space
2) sell PRO memberships offering to CUT OUT the ads from the LITTLE GUYS!

Meanwhile her READERS still have to be PAID on a somewhat regular basis...then some hotshot " Major Chaos" comes along with his AUTOBOT to SUBMIT HIS ADRESS with NO INTENT TO READ A SINGLE AD!

Now, multiply that by 1000 LISTS of a couple hundred people each...and THEN consider that EVERY SINGLE ADDRESS on those lists is a SEPARATE FELONY COUNT...

You would be lucky if the $250,000 PAID YOUR LAWYER...BUT, under the applicable RACKETEERING & FORFEITURE LAWS, those profits ALREADY become the PROPERTY OF UNCLE SAM!

This is why I told my good friend Bryan Mize so much about my own concerns over spam...because the first principle for any internet marketer to remember is that if any user doesn't ACTIVELY WANT your contact, they should NOT have to recieve it.

The Solution: spend a few hundred on your own list script, and maybe more on internet server hardware... OR...find a small list, and invest in a PERMANENT AD LINK!

Am I promoting my own links for profit here?
Yes, and no.

YES: If you, an ethical opportunity seeker, click even one of my links, there is a strong chance that you will make some good money. YES, I would like you to join one of my marketing teams.

On the other hand,
NO: I don't care one whit if you DON'T order from me today. Why should I?
I still have 985 other source companies to find...and a book to finish.

I already have my first client :
mailto:cholesteroldown@catholic.org

Only 999 more to go.

FML-007: Energize Your Mailing List!

A funny thing happened to me a few months back when I did my first-ever search on "Internet Marketing." I discovered a FREE mailing list that builds down 15 levels...as long as you are prepared to accept a few emails from your upline each week.



Today I also discovered that the "Contest Offer" I made just a few posts ago might not be in proper compliance with U.S. Federal Trade Commission (FTC) regulations. So I took it out of circulation immediately.

Now, once again, let me explain what I am doing in this BLOG...
I am trying to generate up to 1001 favorite FREE links to offers so good, that you won't need to spend ANY money as an individual site owner/contractor until you decide you want to.

Even then, you won't be paying ME anything...my commissions from the sales you WANT, already do that!

Meanwhile...effectively, this transcript will GUARANTEE me a BOOK CONTRACT of one sort or another.

So far, my reading of the CAN-SPAM Act of 2003 has already taught me that TIME is on MY side.

I may be good, but I can't send 100 emails a day...yet. By the time I can, I will know another few different ways to protect myself...all of them 100% legal.

Question: How Many Outbound Links May I Have?

I've just checked the profiles of Eric Case & Biz Stone two of the better-known names at Blogger Support. In at least one case (Ha Ha!) I found over 2000 outbound links on what is obviously a professional site by a professional developer and code jockey, so I won't worry about setting up a mere 1001 or so of my own, even for a commercial purpose.

What I am concerned about now is making sure that each post reflects my growing knowledge of the money making and publishing process.

Blogging quite literally leaves the "old media" of print books in the dust!

Result-Wolfspyder Translates the CAN-SPAM ACT!

OK...I just printed out the 26-page document known as the CAN-SPAM Act.
This post won't be complete until I have given my readers a non-lawer's most elementary and basic paraphrase of what can and can't be done...and more particularly, what must be done to assure the greatest probability of compliance for your business.

Once again...the opinions and suggestions expressed here are entirely my own, those of a private U.S. citizen with no particular legal training at all, given with about as much force as a tipsy friend at your favorite pizza joint, and I explicitly disclaim any contention whatsoever that they are being offered as "legal or professional advice" under applicable laws for your jurisdiction or mine.

In plain language... Don't bother suing me, because you are acting completely at your own risk. Besides, suing me won't do any good right now...I have no assets! :-)
______________________________________________________________
Section 1, or, The Word Game:

The "Short Title" of this law is..."The CAN-SPAM ACT of 2003"

Since lawyers like acronyms to help them remember things, this actually stands for :
Controlling (="making it illegal to do this behavior")
(the)
Assault (= "use of violent or improper force to coerce something")
(of)
Non- (="un" or "Not")
Solicited (="sought out" or "wanted.")
Pornography (="sexually explicit pictures that are almost instantly addictive and destroy marriages and careers")
And
Marketing (= "the (badgering or annoying) attempt to sell something to someone else.")
_______________________________________________________________

Section 2, or "What We are Doing and Why." (Congressional Findings/Policy)




Findings Paraphrased

1. What an Amazing New Toy!

2. Half of Everything We Get is Useless!

3. Spam is Costing Lotsa People Lotsa Money!

4. If this keeps up, We May LOSE the Stuff we WANT in all the SPAM!

5. Some (or MOST) Spammers Have Filthy Minds Anyway!

6. Spammers Could Put The Good Guys Out Of Business!

7. Spammers Play "Hide and Seek" with the Cops!

8. Spammers Play DANGEROUS MIND-GAMES in Email Subject Lines!

9. GOTCHA: When Spammers Have Your Address, They NEVER Let it Go!

10. PLAGUE: Many Spammers Use Adress "Harvesters", Viruses, and Other MALICIOUS CODE!

11. The States Can't Control This Alone, so We Have To!

12. We Need BOTH New Tech AND New Diplomatic Links!



SO:

A. UNCLE SAM NEEDS RULES FOR THIS!

B. Misleading People About Either Source or Content of Messages is Illegal!

C. Trapping People's Addresses is Illegal...If Users Don't Want it, They Shouldn't Have to Recieve it!

Section 3: What the Important Words Mean...and Who Is Responsible.

1) AFFIRMATIVE CONSENT: You must be able to prove the consent of the person recieving your message, either because you gave a CLEAR and CONSPICUOUS request for their consent, or because they voluntarily came to you first and gave it. IF you involve ANYONE ELSE (THIRD PARTY PROVIDERS) in providing your service, you must ALSO tell your prospect IN ADVANCE that their name may or will be submitted to that third party.

2) COMERCIAL ELECTRONIC EMAIL MESSAGE: ANY email or website promoting or advertising a product for a commercial purpose. THIS does NOT include a "transactional" or a "relationship" message.

This doesn't necessarily apply if the PRIMARY PURPOSE of the message, as determined by legal process, was NOT the promotion or advertisement of a commercial product.


3) COMMISSION: The FEDERAL TRADE COMMISSION (FTC)

4) DOMAIN NAME: The designated electronic address of any website, anywhere.

5) ELECTRONIC MAIL ADDRESS: Any user email address, on any domain, anywhere.

6) ELECTRONIC MAIL MESSAGE: Any message sent to a unique electronic mail address.

7) FTC act: FEDERAL TRADE COMMISSION ACT (15 U.S.C. 41 et seq.)

8) HEADER INFORMATION: The source, destination, and routing codes, origination information, and anything IDENTIFYING the person initiating the message.

9) INITIATE: To transmit or originate such an electronic message, whether acting by yourself or through another person.

10) INTERNET: Term used as defined by (47 U.S.C 151 NT)

11) INTERNET ACCESS SERVICE: Not relevant (legalese)

12) PROCURE: To pay for, or to pay another person to, send an email message.

13) PROTECTED COMPUTER: term as defined by (section 1030(e)(2)(b) of Title 18, U.S.C.)

14) RECIPIENT: The authorized user(s) of an email address. IF you SPAM multiple addresses belonging to the SAME authorized user, each address affected is a SEPARATE count against you.

15) ROUTINE CONVEYANCE: Transmission, storage, and relay processing by your ISP.
(I.E. What the ISP servers are programmed to do automatically, without human intervention.)

16) SENDER: The human being(s) responsible for starting the message.

17) TRANSACTIONAL/RELATIONSHIP MESSAGE: A transactional or relationship message is any message for which it can be legally proven that a provider/customer relationship already exists, such as:

1. A message that facilitates, completes, or confirms a purchase... (such as clicking one of my provider links and completing a purchase there! :-) )

2.A message that notifies a customer of a change in their (existing) account status.
(Right now, nobody has any "account status" with the main site except for
Director Bryan Mize.)

3. Account statements, periodic newsletters, upgrade information, etc... These should be regularly scheduled and reflect an ongoing relationship between the site owner and the customer.

4. Employment or other benefit opportunities which exist because the recipient is already participating in the owner's plan(s).

5. Delivery of goods or services, (updates/upgrades included) under the terms of a transaction previously agreed to by the customer.
*************************************************************************************

SO...AM I SPAMMING?
NO WAY!

1) I am not asking anybody for any money. I am asking you to participate, FOR FREE, in a FREE PROJECT that can potentially MAKE YOU money. I am using PUBLICLY AVAILABLE, FREE-TO-JOIN SITES, to legally acquire CONTRACTED RIGHTS to advertise for large company providers and their products, using registered contract links through their pre-existing affilliate programs, ad boards, and banner exchanges.

2) I am not HIDING from anyone, let alone from any cops or company representatives. I have no deceptive intentions whatsoever, and I make no representations about any person, entity or company which I have not personally researched.

3) All of my links and banners are under license with their respective public providers...everything else is clearly identified as my own self-produced copy.

4) If you decide to contact me, that sets up a "transactional relationship." If I decide to contact you, I am not SELLING you anything you don't want...and there will probably still be a "transactional relationship" because I will be (most likely) asking whether you and your company would like to appear in my book.

STAY TUNED FOR PART TWO...

419 CON JOB...AVOID EVERY SIMILIAR POST!

THE FOLLOWING POST IS AN EXAMPLE OF A WELL-KNOWN INTERNET SCAM.... ONE FREE AUTOGRAPHED COPY OF MY BOOK WILL GO TO THE FIRST POSTER WHO CAN TELL ME WHERE OR HOW TO REPORT IT TO "THE PROPER AUTHORITES" AS SUCH!

*********************************************************************************************
ATTN: PRESIDENT/CEO,




My name is Mr. M____ A____, member of the
Presidential Task Force on Oil Spillage Clean-up. Early last year
there was a major oil spillage in the Niger Delta
Region of Nigeria which rendered over 70% of the
communities homeless.The contract was handled by a
foreign firm but because of the huge monetary profit
we envisaged we decided to {over-invoice the contract ---PROBABLY an ILLEGAL PRACTICE IN ITSELF! :-)
sum. }

Now the contract has been completed and the original
contractor --please submit NAME, ADDRESS, PHONE NUMBER FOR DUE DILLIGENCE DOCUMENTATION! has since been paid,but the contract
balance of US$38 million,which resulted from the over
invoiced contract sum that has been left in a
suspense account with the CENTRAL BANK of NIGERIA, --Like I want to get tangled in something obviously involving several visits to the U.S. Emabassy and a boatload of international lawyers!

is what (me
and my partners) and I speak proper English, RALLY I Do! :-))

are planning to take out of the
country for ourselves. --So you want MY help in torquing off the Dictator of The Month Club?

The problem is as government
officials,we are not suppose to own fat bank
accounts,talk less of having foreign ones. --No, the PROBLEM is that you are CON ARTISTS. You want simplified access to MY bank account so that it can disappear. As responsible ministers of ANY government, you would realize that your risk in transmitting this information INTERNATIONALLY to a PRIVATE CITIZEN of ANY other sovereign State represents a STRONG risk that it could be leaked to third parties.

When those third parties belong to potential terrorist states, it increases MY risk of being kidnapped in the middle of the night, and held up by someone interested in retrieving "YOUR" money...and with my luck, the gentlemen carrying the machine guns might turn out to have diplomatic immunity! :-)



To this end, we are soliciting your assistance as a
foreign partner who can assist us and receive this
amount into your account. We are ready to share this
money with you on the basis of participation. --Find another pidgeon, Son! REAL multi- millionaires are frugal because they have to pay their own lawyers and accountants well enough to discourage that sort of embezzlement right here in our own country!

We also
have plans to invest part of this money in any viable
business in your country under your care,as we are
nearing our retirement age. --Catch the plan again...first WRITE BOOK. Then SELL BOOK (to publisher and/or government agent(s) as indicated. )
THEN capitalize my business, inclusive of all relevant licensing etc.


In any case, I received a reference of
you/organization from the Nigeria Chambers of Commerce
and Industry 'Foreign Trade Division' as a reputable
organ that can assist us o n this transaction.--how very strange...an international arm of the Nigerian government to which I NEVER submitted my name, contacts my PRIVATE email address with an offer to a company I NEVER EVEN BUILT YET!

Please
if you accept my proposal do not hesitate to send me
an e-mail,so that I can provide you with
the basic procedures for the release of the fund.

NICE AND NEAT...JUST AS SIMPLE AS "HARVESTING" my address off PAYPAL must have been! Whoever you really are, you have also provided the best example of FRAUDULENT SPAM (UNSOLICITED COMMERCIAL EMAIL) I could wish for...and if you were here, you would be prosecuted for Internet Fraud, per section 1037 of Title 18, United States Code!

It does not matter whether you or your company does
contract project of the nature described here,

My "company", such as it presently ISN'T, turns BLOGS into BUX and BUX into BOOKS, period.
With all of the other companies here listed I am understood to be an INDEPENDANT CONTRACTOR.
the
assumption is that you won a major contract and
subcontracted it to another company, more often than
not, big trading companies or individuals of
unrelated field win major contracts here in Nigeria and
subcontracts same to more specialized firms for
execution.

As I said, I am not interested in "problems of execution," UNLESS you count staying out of the sort of diplomatic mess that might get ME executed! :-)

There is another assumption that rich men nearly always make..."If it sounds too good to be true, assume that it is!"

BENEFIT: For providing the account where we shall
remit this money, you will be entitled to 25% of the
entire funds, 70% will be for me and my
partners,while 5% has been set aside to cover any expenses that may
be incurred by both parties during this transaction,
both local and international.

Notice the "Bait & Switch" from $38 Million to about $8.5 Million. $8.5 Million makes about as good an inducement to play James Bond as your average STATE LOTTERY PRIZE


please I enjoin you to handle this transaction with
utmost degree of maturity and confidentiality because
I am still in active government service with the
"NIGERIAN NATIONAL PETROLEUM CORPORATION".

I just did a Google (tm) search on the term "Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation."
Yes, they do have a website! One link button invites me to "play casino", while another offers a "stop spam now!" script. The most intersting button of all is a BROKEN LINK saying "Have you recieved a strange offer in your email? It may be a SCAM!" :-)

If I
receive your response on time, this whole transaction
could be accomplished within the shortest possible
time based on your interest and determination,since
the money is already in transit.
I wait for your response
Yours faithfully,
Mr. M___ A___ (MNIM).

"Yours faithfully?"
You expect me to believe that and jump into collusion to bilk several million dollars from your own government? Is that *your* post I saw plastered all over my favorite newsgroups last month? Tell me another one.

NO CHANCE...THERE AIN'T NO SUCH THING AS A FREE LUNCH!

Concept #2: Evolution of DREAMS into GOALS

I just discovered that Delphi has a GAMES PARTNER now.

LIFE LESSON: EVERYTHING EVOLVES.

Also played "tag" today with my first prospect at Aiyo...Offering him the same DREAMSCAPERS1000 FULL DIRECTORATE as I have for the other four at GREENSPONDER.

That makes TWO DIRECTORATES in TWO DAYS.

Here's the thing...Once the project of the $5,000,000 FTJ Financial Freedom Quest is done, it's DONE .
Once I can throw about 500,000 coherant words at this project, THE SUCCESS OR FAILURE OF THE EXPERIMENT WON'T MAKE ANY DIFFERENCE!

Why? Because this is not a dream. This is a GOAL. Check out how I found one of the best, if not THE best, site for self-improvement programs in the world...

While there, you will want to check out Brian Tracy's Ultimate Goals Program.








Opinion-My Internet VACATION

I am going to spend some time today playing around on Delphi.
Lots of the forums on Delphi are very PLAYFUL and FUN to post in, Sooo...
I am going to go find some fun.

Maybe that will strengthen me to tell you the rest of the story.
Meanwhile....here's another little VACATION for my readers. :-)
Nice lessons on the wealth mindset, and a whole lot of fun!

READ. SPECULATE. DREAM. ENJOY.

Result-Starting to Get Nibbles...

GREAT NEWS!
Just a few minutes ago, in my alternate/paid email address, I found a couple of "new" programs which I had almost completely forgotten about...and at least one of them is actually GETTING NIBBLES!

But because of the contest, it would not be fair for me to disclose which program this is...UNTIL I contact the people in question and advise them of their possible qualification for a DIRECTORATE BONUS!

SINCE I BELIEVE IN *DEMONSTRATING* EVERY STEP of my site's building process, from the FREE WYSIWYG ("WHAT YOU SEE IS WHAT YOU GET") EDITOR that WRITES MY HTML CODE FOR ME, HERE AT BLOGGER.COM, to demonstrating how I meet EVERY MARKETING CHALLENGE, and how I honor EVERY COMMITMENT made to my membership...

I can only address this entry to 3 or 4 VERY SPECIAL PEOPLE...and when you get my emails, you will KNOW who you are!
So READ THIS VERY CAREFULLY...

I have a BRAND NEW DIRECTORATE available JUST for YOUR program...so the FIRST person to respond with the BEST FULL ENTRY
in my FINANCIAL FREEDOM FINDER CONTEST...will get THE *EXCLUSIVE* RIGHTS to promote and direct that program on my main site FOR AS LONG AS IT EXISTS, PERIOD, END OF STORY!

BUT HERE IS THE ONLY CATCH...THE "BEST FULL ENTRY" REFERS TO THE FIRST PERSON TO :

1. EMAIL YOUR INTENT ACCORDING TO MY PREVIOUSLY POSTED INSTRUCTIONS...
2. FIND ME A *BRAND NEW* PROGRAM WHICH WILL NOT COST ME, OR MY READERS , EVEN ONE SINGLE RED CENT TO JOIN...
3. EMAIL ME at wolfspyder100@yahoo.com, DESCRIBING IN 500 words or less WHY *YOU* should manage the new WOLFSPYDER'S WOLFPACK DIRECTORSHIP!

4. Finally,WITHOUT MENTIONING YOUR CONTEST STATUS, LEAVE A PUBLIC COMMENT to ANY POST OF YOUR CHOICE ON THE MAIN SITE, EXCEPT FOR THIS ONE!

MAY THE BEST PROMOTER WIN! ENJOY! :-)

WOLFSPYDER

Result-Covering the Bases: KNOW the HOUSE RULES!

I am EXCITED! Ten posts in three days!

ADDICTED is more the word for it.
Already I have set up several FREE MONEY LINKS, as well as a MAJOR CONTEST to try attracting visitors.

Several RULES ISSUES have come up, and so I have decided to concentrate on the development of the MAIN SITE as the body of the $5,000,000 Quest experiment, and contract the rest of the work out to the EARLY SUPPORTERS of my vision.

My next issue: being sure I have the rights to maintain my little multi-server corner of the internet universe.
Today I took the precaution of contacting BLOGGER SUPPORT at BLOGSPOT.COM, requesting a staff review to make sure of policy compliance.

The Wonderful Little Secret: This project will continue...whether or not any particular provider agrees to participate. I am not cheating anyone. I am using my own intellectual property to do my own work. And...as I have said before, ALL FAILURE is only PARTIAL failure.

If this experiment fails, or needs to move elsewhere...I am going to know why.
And write THAT up. And try again.

FILM AT 11:00, SO STAY TUNED!!
:-)

Update: As of August 15, 2004, there has still been no word from Blogger Support on what I may or may not be doing wrong here. In the absence of that contact, I will proceed as planned, on the assumption that Support either actively approves of what I am doing (without necessarily endorsing it) or else doesn't care one bit as long as I don't get arrested for spamming or some other nasty FTC violation.

3. NESTED packages and TIMED TRIAL packages are FORBIDDEN.
Your entry CANNOT take the form of any program which, in effect, says EITHER of the following:

[be.gin evil laughter loop here!]


4. I don't like CON ARTISTS. I shouldn't have to say this at all, but our totally depraved human nature never changes, so...

USERS OF THIS SITE MAY NOT, AT ANY TIME OR IN ANY MANNER WHATSOEVER, EVER, EVER, USE MY MAIN SITE TO PROMOTE:

4.1 *ANY* PAID PRODUCT WHICH REQUIRES AN INDIVIDUAL USER FEE OF ANY SORT, WITHOUT MY DIRECT AND EXPLICIT PRIOR ENDORSEMENT OF THAT SAID PRODUCT!

4.2 *ANY SITE* ENDORSING ATIVITIES WHICH ARE ILLEGAL, IMMORAL, PORNOGRAPHIC, HATE-CRIME, HACKING, TERRORISTIC, PHREAKING, FLAMING, OUTWAR CLONES, SPAMMING, STEALING, OR (AT MY SOLE DISCRETION) JUST GENERALLY SNARKING PEOPLE OFF!

7. THE CONTEST SHALL TERMINATE WITHOUT NOTICE, WHEN 1001 SUCH QUALIFIED B2B PROGRAMS HAVE BEEN FOUND. EACH PROGRAM LISTED SHOULD HAVE SUFFICIENTLY UNIQUE QUALITIES TO BE ATTRACTIVE TO DIFFERENT "STYLES" INTERNET MARKETERS AT DIFFERING LEVELS OF EXPERIENCE, SINCE I EXPECT THE EXPERIENCE OF BOTH MYSELF AND MY AUDIENCE TO GROW WITH EVERY POST, EVERY DAY.

THE GROWTH OF THE CONTEST, WILL PARALLEL THE GROWTH OF THE MAIN SITE.

8. FINALLY...It is now the OFFICIAL policy and Unique Selling Propostion of this site that NO individual, anywhere, any time, EVER, may be REQUIRED to spend any money AT THE MAIN SITE.

PLEASE NOTE: THIS DOES NOT APPLY TO THE
THIRD-PARTY COMPANIES LISTED HERE...EVERY COMPANY is entitled to make money SOMEHOW, AFTER ALL!

FML-004.2:The Downside of Delphi...

...is that after only two days work, I have realized that 1001 links are far too many to maintain.
I need to set up some basic ground rules for THIS, central site, BEFORE I concern myself with building or increasing my presence on the other sites...but the real Shaharazade Paradox is that if I don't provide 1001 links, I have broken my word to my users. Provide a thousand and one entries, to a thousand and one FREE commissionable programs, or the experiment fails after less than a week.

Something else about Delphi...Unless I am paying THEM for THEIR advertising space, I am not sure I am even allowed to link into them as a "commercial site."

And if I do...suddenly I am running THREE different forums instead of just one, not even counting my Dreamscapers1000 list. Each of which has significantly differing posting requirements.

For that matter...is there a CRITICAL MASS for links into one site? Some magic number after which the site is said to be SPAMMING, PERIOD, end of story? Or will I suddenly be FLOODING somebody's central server so badly that they decide they ABSOLUTELY MUST charge me money I DON'T HAVE, even for the use of formerly "free" bandwith?

If you have followed the $5,000,000 Quest this far, you have begun to see the power of leverage that I am tapping into, building up FAST!

I am going to NEED new people...

Weekly Update #1: The Shaharazade Paradox

Payday: $564.00 US D (SSI Subsistance Income)
Net Assets: $0.00
Net Income: $0.00
Liabilities: UNKNOWN
Net Worth :$0.00
______________________________________________________________________________
I can't do everything.
Right now that is my greatest fear.

Right along with the fear of people looking at my site and bypassing my sponsor links because I am allowing anyone who can read the english language to access all my knowledge for FREE. Am I crazy? what if all that brings to the site are a bunch of laughing hackers and phreakers? What if my 1001 site "empire" crumbles because I get sick and tired of being CHAINED to my computer all day?

Horsefeathers. Worse than that, Dragon-dung!
How do I know that?
Because I know leverage.

I have leverage right now. I have been building up to my present knowledge, little by little, for about 10 or 15 years.

I know it because this is not my only project.
I have three or four OTHER books in development right now.
If this experiment fails, even disastrously...I am going to know why.
And sooner or later, I am going to write about THAT.
And sooner or later, THAT writing is going to sell TOO.

Another Dirty Little Secret: All failure, except for DEATH, is only partial failure.

Going to school, all the worst of your teachers may try to convince you that failure is permanent.
I believed that lie for YEARS.
Even when the opposite SUCCESS SECRET was being burned into my bones by the daily process of overcoming Cerebral Palsy, learning to walk while my doctors and therapists said it was "impossible."

Ladies and gentlemen, I don't just go through my life DREAMING about how NICE it would be to have a butler, a maid, a personal secretary, or a chauffer. I NEED THEM EVERY DAY.

Right now I have a "maid" called a PCA (for Personal Care Aide) who is being paid for BY A STATE AGENCY at TAXPAYER EXPENSE.

If I want to go more than a block or two away from my apartment, I either call in personal favors from friends, or jump into a "common yellow limousine" called a TAXICAB.

$5.00-$15.00 EACH WAY, EVERY SINGLE TIME. All to do OTHER PEOPLE'S BUSINESS and SPEND GOVERNMENT MONEY ON MAKING THEM RICH!

And...if I should happen to see a financial opportunity, it is basically ILLEGAL for me to take advantage of it, without completely "SELLING" IT TO THE GOVERNMENT FIRST! They can even ORDER me with the FORCE OF LAW, to SPEND MYSELF BACK INTO POVERTY!!!
THAT is the REALITY of WELFARE.
http://www.ssa.gov/pubs/11000.html#part3

Government men telling me DAILY how VULNERABLE I am because I "can't" work.
SOCIALIST SOCIAL WORKERS telling me I HAVE IT BETTER THAN THEY DO because I USE UP people's tax money instead of paying my own.


But what about the power of the internet?
I can get email from nearly any computer terminal in the world, for FREE.
From my own personal computer, I can make friends from ALL OVER THE PLANET, with just a few clicks of my mouse!

I can build a personal site for free...
I can build a BUSINESS SITE for free as well IF I HAVE THE RIGHT ADVERTISERS.
If I am willing to spend the TIME to write my own material, I can promote nearly ANY business opportunity I want.
If I learn cost-effective or even FREE ways to DRIVE TRAFFIC to my site, then people will FLOCK to my doorway and THROW MONEY AT ME to learn what I know!
Hey....what if I can do it ALL for FREE?

WOULDN'T THAT BE LIKE MAKING "MONEY FOR NOTHING?" :-)

Concept #1: Use Other People's Money

There was a big electrical storm outside my bedroom window last night that got me thinking.
I started this BLOG project as a way of forcing myself to learn how to promote just one business:
http://franciscarmody.plugusin4cash.com and energize the people I had personally signed into the program.

Then I considered using this as an "add on" for the old friend who had opted me in to my first MLM nutritionals company. As of today I can't give you either the name of this man, nor his email address, nor even the name of the company, but watch for details in future entries.

The killer was realizing that to make the kind of income being promised by my "primary program," I had to be more or less personally responsible for introducing almost one million new computer systems to the "tiny piece of software" they were promoting.

Now, to judge by the names I was seeing in my downline, it appeared that most of the real "action" was coming from ONE person in my first level, who had managed to use some free classified ad sites to tap into markets in India and China!

I came back a few weeks later and found another problem...even the people who had the software forgot about it after the first download!

Then I realized that even though I had been on the program for almost a year, other personal concerns created by a less-than-scrupulous not-for-profit agency in New York were keeping me from learning what I needed to know to promote the program.

What is welfare anyway?

It's a lot more than just "a check from the government."
Basically it's a way for advanced cultures to ensure that a violent revolution is staved off because more people are not forced into stealing food, clothing or shelter by their primary survival instincts.
Charles Dickens was writing about welfare when he wrote stories like Oliver Twist and A Christmas Carol.
In his day in England, there were debtor's prisons...you could go to jail just for being poor.

Welfare programs are a way that governments use Other People's Money (TAXPAYER DOLLARS) to protect their own citizens who can't work because of being too young, too old, or otherwise disabled.
Now, I am entitled to welfare...specifically to
(MN. rules-2004) $
564.00 USD/month under Supplemental Security Income.

As far as I am concerned, YOU CAN HAVE IT ! http://www.ssa.gov/pubs/11000.html

The downside:
These social programs work best when protecting those citizens who are :
A: Too young to work (under age18 in most applications of US law...)
B: Too old to work (over age 65 [and rising!] by US law...)
C: Too physically vulnerable to work ("disabled")

The Dirty Little Secret: PEOPLE WHO TRADE *THEIR OWN* TIME FOR *THEIR OWN* MONEY, WILL NEVER, EVER, EVER, GET RICH!

WHY?

BECAUSE EVERY JOB, EVERYWHERE, IS MADE BY REPEATED TRADES OF "OTHER PEOPLE'S MONEY" FOR *YOUR* TIME AND *YOUR* CONTACTS!

What the rich know that motivates every money success seminar in the world, is that TIME, not money is the most irreplaceable and RANDOM currency of life. When you spend LARGE AMOUNTS OF TIME to make FIXED AMOUNTS OF MONEY, you end up POOR, PERIOD.

But...when you spend SMALL amounts of TIME each day to make REPEATED, SMALL or MIDDLE-SIZED MONEY DEALS which work OVER AND OVER AGAIN, you end up in a position to know the BIG deals when you see them...and when you do enough of them, you have just CREATED YOUR OWN LUCK. Sooner or later, the right CONTACT will come to you with the BIG DEAL at JUST THE RIGHT TIME!

Wipe out a rich man's money, and he will have it back within a few months at most.
Why? Because he has invested TIME in making the right CONTACTS. He already knows how to trade his specialized knowledge for OTHER PEOPLE'S MONEY!

GIVE A POOR MAN THE RIGHT CONTACTS and KNOWLEDGE TO FREE HIS TIME, and eventually he may learn how to CONTROL *HIS OWN* money well enough to be trusted with...OTHER PEOPLE'S MONEY!

Why do ALL OF US dream of making "money for nothing?" Of doing whatever we want with our TIME, without having to trade it to make our own money? Because the RICH MAN is SURROUNDED by people who are trading tiny pieces of HIS TIME for THEIR MONEY! When the RICH MAN decides something is a waste of his valuable time, he turns it into SOMEONE ELSE'S JOB to handle those details.

The "detail men" of the world ARE the "middle class."

All the EXPERTS in the world are hired because somewhere, a RICH MAN wants to trade his MONEY for THEIR TIME and THEIR specialized CONTACTS for some small fraction of HIS MONEY.

BUT...WHY can't EVERYONE be RICH?

Because the money- rich man also eventually sacrifices MOST of his day-to-day CONTACTS to the protection of his MONEY! He insolates himself with a PICKED TEAM to protect the use of his TIME. Some ( for instance,Howard Hughes?) can be driven mad by the resulting isolation.

Still, deprive either the rich man or the poor man of his TIME, and you have deprived him of his LIFE.

This is why LAWYERS and DOCTORS get paid so much.

I could say more...but for now, this rich man has spent enough TIME on one post! :-)
