Jumping Ahead

The neat thing about writing this blog is that it gives me the incentive to seek out interesting new opportunities. The problem with most people who try to start and run their own home-based on-line business, is that they don't have the energy to keep looking for new ways to promote their business or products. And that's a sure-fire way to failure, because the key is to always reach new audiences. It's great to find a "list" that makes it easy to post an ad to millions of viewers, but only a percentage of those actually read the ads. And even those who do read will ignore your ad once they've seen it a couple of times. So you need to keep finding new lists and new prospects. Anyway, the point is that I've come across a unique new list service called List Jumper. The interesting thing about this list building program is that it provides an interesting way to generate viewers (and that means people who read your ads). The usual formula applies - you earn points by viewing ads and then spend those points to send ads. You can also benefit as an affiliate by promoting the site (which builds the list and ensures a constant stream of new users and viewers). But here's the neat thing, you can also "buy" your way to the top of the list to make sure your ads are viewed by everyone on the list, not just your own downline. In other words, you can "jump" up the list and gain access to a wider audience for your ads. And you can do it for free without having to buy into more pricey membership levels that so many other lists use as a model. Of course, you can spend a little cash to buy into those higher levels with List Jumper, too, but what's really unique is that you don't have to. It's a great concept. Check it out here.
