Here's how the program works, in a blogshell (hehe). There's a fair bit of info here, so I'll try and lay it out in a fairly concise manner, and break it down further in future blogs.
When you do opt in and become a free member, you receive a replicated search engine website. This Acme People Search Engine can be used to make commissions with by promoting the site to others that are looking for somebody in the United States. And yes, this can and is being successfully promoted globally, but the search feature just works in the U.S. People can do a free basic search for immediate results, or can register for free to receive more useful information such as an address or phone number. Every time someone registers for free, you make money. Also there are other products displayed on your site that you can earn from such as Reverse Phone Detective, or Background Checks.
Step One in the APS system is to Monetize your search engine by becoming a free affiliate member of Clickbank, H.D. Publishing, and Google Adsense, and entering your affiliate id's into the system.
Now as I said, you can make some commissions with this search engine, and what that means is your own Acme link will be shown 35% of the time for you to earn with. Anyone that is serious about making money online with Acme People Search will want to take the optional Step 2
Step Two involves signing up for the recommended web hosting to brand your people search engine with your own name. This way you can take control over your search engine website and modify it if you wish as you please. Now depending upon how upgraded your sponsor is in the program and which options they chose, you may be offered hosting by Hostgator, Lunar Pages, or GDI. All reputable companies with great hosting.
Once you have taken step 2, your Acme link will now be shown 65% of the time when you advertise your search engine that people can use for free.
Referral Commissions - You can now also start earning referral fees from Tissa for promoting Acme People Search and bringing new referrals into the program. To date I've been paid $447 USD. in referral commissions from Tissa. Before the end of the year, a further bonus plan will be added.
You may already be a GDI member through another program, that's fine, you can just enter your username into the program. If you got Hostgator or Lunar Pages in Step 2, that's fine too. You can use GDI for a website to promote your APS business, another opportunity, or a personal site, and take advantage of this income stream. GDI is a fabulous opportunity to build residual income over time. The best way to promote GDI is by using a system like Acme People Search to give people a reason to get hosting. And here's where APS really shines...
Step Three is for those who are committed to earning online. The cost is $29.99 per month. What you get is a 100% display rate of your Acme link when promoting your people search engine, and Tissa's Secret Sign Up Sauce. That's a saucy way of saying GDI Forced Hosting and the GDI Forced Matrix.
GDI Forced Hosting when activated, will always show your GDI referral link as a hosting option to your referrals that take Step 2 ensuring you consistently grow your GDI downline. This is the most powerful tool anywhere to grow your GDI business, and yes I can back that statement up. The proof is in the number of identifiable Acme People Search affiliates who are consistently at the top of the GDI Leaderboards.
GDI Forced Matrix when turned on will allow you to give your new referrals to someone in your downline to benefit and motivate them, and grow your downline into a full matrix. Without this feature, in GDI you can only move a new referral below someone in your level 1. Using this tool will fill your matrix such that each referral in your level one will have 6 below them, and so on for each level.
Once you have upgraded to Step 3 and see the power of the system, you open up some really neat options that can really explode your online business.
Wealth Affiliate University - An awesome online training course to teach you how to effectively market, promote, and advertise online. Also once a member, you become an affiliate as well. If you choose to refer others to this course, they will pay you $20 per month, or $150 outright, depending upon the membership type your referral signs up for.
APS Training and Support - Outstanding! Tissa holds several live webinars per week where you can speak to him, type in questions, or just listen and learn. I have and still attended very many of these webinars and have learned something from every single one without fail and highly recommend them especially to those wanting to learn more about APS before coming on board, or committing to any of the optional upgrades or income streams available.
The APS Support Forum is an amazing 24 /7 resource. With over 6000 registered users, and 92 Super Sponsors waiting eagerly to answer any questions and help you succeed with your APS business. The forum is loaded with great info on internet marketing in general, free and paid advertising methods, building your websites, using all of GVO's marketing tools. Also you'll find some seasoned marketers and complete newbies, open dialogs, camaraderie, comedy, friendship, and above all support.
Super Sponsors at the forum are people who adhere to the forum's motto - "Give, Get, Grow ..." and pay it forward by helping other people to succeed. I have been fortunate enough to have been made a Super Sponsor every month since it's inception for my willingness to help others. One of the benefits of becoming a Super Sponsor is that Tissa will pay all of your fixed operating costs, including all the programs integrated within Acme. That means that for 2 months Tissa sent to my Paypal account $87.90 to cover the costs of my GDI, Step 3, and Wealthy Affiliate U. subscriptions. Then the following 2 months I received $123.90 to include the cost of my GVO Titanium membership, and I'm expecting another payment any day!
I can't tell you how much this rocks for my business! And you can become a Super Sponsor too, even if you are new!
Integrity and Transparency - Tissa's got it, not to mention being a really nice guy. No posts at the forum are censored, except for the 7 dirty words (replaced by 'Love'), and affiliate links placed in the body of the posts (you can place them in your signature). You can talk to him via a thread at the forum or on a live webinar, he is completely open and honest about his program. I've heard him many times tell people 'do not subscribe to Step 3 and pay me $30 per month is you don't know what you are doing. Spend some time at the forum, or join Wealthy Affiliate and learn how to market, advertise and promote online, and then come back and subscribe when you are ready to start sending targeted traffic to your People Search Engine or referral links."
This program works, if you use it.
