Is Plug-In Profit the Best Way for A Newbie To Start?
 

Topic title pretty much sums it up. I am fairly new to the marketing business and have heard about Plug-In Profit. I was wondering if it was the best way for a newbie to get started?

Re: Is Plug-In Profit the Best Way for A Newbie To Start?
 

B Hock

If you are new and do not have experience with Internet
marketing, then I would highly recommend starting with
the Plug-in-Profit Site.

My advice to you is this....

1. Make a budget and stick to it!

2. Only join the programs that are a necessity i.e WebHosting
& Autoresponder

3. Go thought the 30 day course and let it all sink in, then
go through it again!

4. Find one way to advertise your business and master it,
then once you've mastered it and are real good at it add
another one. Continue to do this and you'll start to build
momentum and you won't get overwhelmed.

5. Stay focused and promote your business everyday and go
into this as your business and not a hobby. It does take time
but it is well worth it in the end!

And one more thing... Make a Budget! ;)

Good luck,

It's hard to say what the "best" way for anyone to start is. However, I would say that PIPS is certainly a great place to start for most newbies.

Re: Is Plug-In Profit the Best Way for A Newbie To Start?
 

Thanks for the replies. I think once I get a decent budget together I will sign up with them.

Re: Is Plug-In Profit the Best Way for A Newbie To Start?
 

I think PIP is the easiest and safest way for a Newbie to start, I mean look at what you get unheard of...look at the training and the support...Warrior Forum is great for PIP Newbies, and with Hostgator added it is not expensive at all, because you have options, and don't have to join all the programs and can still make money!

Re: Is Plug-In Profit the Best Way for A Newbie To Start?
 

Hi All,
i've heard about PIP but i just wondered how we can make money online with it ?
Sorry if i tell you that a lot of gurus take our money and fly away, i wasted my money and my time for some few Dollars....I am in IM since 3 years but i feel that i am a newbie :)
Thankx

Re: Is Plug-In Profit the Best Way for A Newbie To Start?
 

Hi Baker,

I've only been a PIPS member for very short time. But I've already come to realize that there are a lot of good programs online that you can make money from if you're prepared to put in the time and the hard work. It's more about learning the skills and techniques to promote your website and affiliate links.
The name of the game is 'TRAFFIC'. If you can generate enough traffic you will generate sales and referrals in whatever you're promoting.

I hope this helps.

Re: Is Plug-In Profit the Best Way for A Newbie To Start?
 

This is how you make money with PIPS:

You sign up for the various optional affiliate programs. We include on our application, usually 5-6 - some are free and some are not - the more you sign up for the higher commissions you can earn.

You register a domain name and set up a hosting account where we can build you a free website that has your IDs for those programs embedded.

After we build it you can customize it to your preference including adding other programs and products to generate more income.

We also provide a sales page that includes all the programs and is embedded with your IDS.

We provide free step-by-step training online that you can do at your own pace, as well as training videos and other resources in your back office.

All you need to do is to consistently promote your sales page and your website using the techniques and strategies we outline in the training. There are both free and paid options recommended.

Add to this your motivation, discipline and patience, and you have started what could become a good affiliate marketing business. You can keep building as your learn more and more over time.

Re: Is Plug-In Profit the Best Way for A Newbie To Start?
 

PIPS is a great way to learn for someone very new.

Bill,
I totally agree with your advice here.
All the best,
Paul

Re: Is Plug-In Profit the Best Way for A Newbie To Start?
 

No.

Pip is a combination of affiliate, MLM and other things.

Re: Is Plug-In Profit the Best Way for A Newbie To Start?
 

You are right. PIPs is a combination of affiliate programs and network marketing programs. It in itself is none of these but rather a tool to use in promoting more than one program using only one sales page. It is a great way to build multiple income streams with only one tool. If used correctly it has very high potential.

Unfortunately many people never take the time to learn how to use it correctly.

Re: Is Plug-In Profit the Best Way for A Newbie To Start?
 

I'd be lost trying to setup and internet business if it wasn't for the Plug-in Profit Site. The 30-day training program is top-notch for teaching you how to build and maintain an online business. It's easy to read and work through for a newbie, and gives you skills that top-notch internet marketers use. Plus it is updated frequentely and changes with the times, so the info is always fresh and up-to-date, not old and stale. Many other programs try to sell you portions of what's contained in the Plug-in Profit Site training. You only get bits and pieces with those other programs, whereas you get everything you need with the Plug-in Profit Site!

i heard lot of positive feed back about PIPS but you need to drive traffic if you want to make money.learn skill from guru in WF .u can find more tricks in forums posts

Re: Is Plug-In Profit the Best Way for A Newbie To Start?
 

In my opinion, PIPS is the best starting point in internet marketing!

Re: Is Plug-In Profit the Best Way for A Newbie To Start?
 

First let me make it clear I am NOT a PIP's member

There are several options available to you to start your new endevor of Internet Marketing and you are being smart about it by looking at different programs rather than just jumping head first into it on your own.

After you look at PIP's I would suggest checking out a couple different options for you as well. I joined two seperate ones when I first started out, one is very basic and gives you the begining path to get started with making money online. Then I joined a second that is way more advanced and teaches you more in the way of lead generation, SEO, web design etc etc.

This is a PIP's forum so I won't name them here out of respect for this great community of PIP's but if you want the information on the others feel free to PM me.

In closing, which ever system you choose when your first starting out, just remember that there is such a thing as too much information so find one and implement it before moving onto another. And secondly, money online is hard, it takes work, patience, and more work to be in profit. Know that in the beginning and you will be very successful in the end.

Re: Is Plug-In Profit the Best Way for A Newbie To Start?
 

good post.definitly at the end if one does not quit,he will make it

Re: Is Plug-In Profit the Best Way for A Newbie To Start?
 

Hi There,

As a Pipster myself I can thoroughly recommend the 30 days training for anyone starting out in this business. It gives an excellent grounding in affiliate marketing as long as you remember that you you must start slowly and build up. Only go for the free or cheap programs or you will run out of money before you start and Stone points this out himself so stick to your budget.

After you become more experienced and start to make a little money you can try one or two paid for programs until they also begin to make money then go on from there. Building an online business is hard work and has a high failure rate mostly due to impatience but as long as you accept that it is a marathon and not a sprint then it will be worthwile in the long run.

best wishes,

Mal.

Re: Is Plug-In Profit the Best Way for A Newbie To Start?
 

Yea I agree with Bill here as far as not getting overwhelmed. I know because I'm going thru that right now. It will freak you out a little. good luck

Re: Is Plug-In Profit the Best Way for A Newbie To Start?
 

The Plug In Profit Site or as the thousands of members call it, PIPS, is the creation of one Internet Marketing professional named Stone Evans. He turned his dreams into reality with this program, and PIPS has turned hundreds if not thousands of peoples dreams of Internet success into a reality they only once dreamed about... Myself Included!


PIPS consists of 6 core programs. You get a website built for you that promotes each of the core products. You will get excellent training, have access to some to some of the top Internet Marketers in the worlds largest Internet Marketing Forum - the Warrior Forum!

The support is some of the best you will ever encounter, and the members are always available to assist you in answering any questions or addressing any concerns you may have.


How Can PIPS Help Make Your Life Even Better?


Before I list many of the benefits of a Plug In Profit site, let me do a little analogy to show what I mean by saying PIPS can help make your life even better. Before I do, let me just say that PIPS is the program that got me interested in Internet Marketing, specifically Affiliate Marketing. I joined PIPS in October of 2005, and what a whirlwind adventure it's been. PIPS is by far, in my opinion, one of the best and most complete Affiliate Marketing starter programs every offered on the Internet. Stone did his research, put in the time, effort and money to make this program all it is today.


Starting An Internet Business Is Like Buying A House!

Now, don't run away, I'm not crazy. Seriously, think of starting your brand new online business the same as if you are in the process of buying a house. If you are looking for a house, you go all over town, looking at one house, then another, and maybe four or five more before you narrow down your search and make that purchase. You don't want just any house, you want one that you like the appearance of, one that gives you the correct number of bedrooms, bathrooms, and has a lovely back yard and a lot of well organized space for all your furniture and your family. .

PIPS, in it's own right is just like looking to purchase that special house. The Plug In Profit System is found on the internet. You have to look all over the web to find it, unless someone has provided you a link to the site. Did you find it by word of mouth, maybe it appeared due to a keyword search in one of the search engines.
Regardless of how you found it, you were "looking all over the Internet". . After minutes, hours or possibly even days of searching, you found a PIPS site, and it really caught your eye. It looked really nice, just like a house you are now looking at.


See, just like your house... when starting an Internet Marketing business, you want something special! You don't want just any affiliate program or website, you want one that looks good. You want one that is continually providing you the latest and greatest programs to enhance your income. You want a website that is easy to work with, you definately want a website that allows you to modify it to suit your personal preferences, one you can change to look exactly like you want it to.

Wow, now imagine that you took the leap? You just bought the house. But, you feel a little cash strapped and are wondering how to fill it up with all the furniture and appliances you need because after the initial downpayment, you bank account is a little short. You realize you need a bed, maybe a dining room set and various appliances. So, you set a budget and get what you can right now, and as time goes bye, you get something else that you want or need.

Well, PIPS can be the same way for those just starting out, especially newbies with a desire to start an internet marketing business, yet, you don't quite have the necessary capital to buy everything at once. You don't need to buy it all at once.


You don't need to spend your hard earned money until you are ready to take the next step in your Internet business.

All you need to get started is a domain name (around $10 per year), a hosting account (under $10 a month) and an autoresponder (can sign up for FREE or start small $18.00 a month). Amazing, for under $50 dollars today, you can start your own business, get your own website, take advantage of all the free training and learn the in's and out's of Internet and Affiliate Marketing and then for less than $40 a month you own our own Internet business.

You can take your time to learn the basics of Internet Marketing, take advantage of all the free training that is offered through PIPS, SFI and some of the other affiliate programs, and as you learn more and save up a few dollars, you can then start getting into the paid programs PIPS offers. There's no rush.




Before You Can Really Earn... You Must Take The Time To Learn!

• Low Start Up Costs
• Excellent Earning Potential
• Low Monthly Fees
• High Quality Affiliate Programs
• Excellent Affiliate Training
• Top Customer Support
• Your Own Website - Ready in 24 hours
• Your Very Own Internet Business

So, take the leap. The training alone is well worth the money you will have to spend each month. You could say, this is like getting your Internet Marketing Bachelor Degree for the cost of a monthly school lunch program.

To your success,

Hi All,

I signed with PIPS about a couple of weeks ago and have read the 30 day program throughout. Of course I did not go through all the exercises at first but I wanted to have an understanding of the whole package before I started rolling my sleeves and getting down to putting lots of ink on my campaigns.

First, let me say that I am completely new to internet marketing, but I knew I wanted to start a business on my own. I looked at quite a number of business opportunities out there franchises, online, and many online marketing programs out there. I read the article by stones probably 4 times for a period of two weeks before I decided to go into it. Yes I was hesitant.

Now that I have signed for most of the affiliate programs and read the 30 day course, I have this to say. It is absolutely worth every cent, I have no reservation whatsoever to say that if you are new to this line of business and you are looking for a way to break into it, the PIPS program by Stone is 100% the way to go. When he says that it will take you 2 to 3 years to learn on your own what he teaches, he is really not kidding, I know that it would have taken me at least 3 years to capture what I already have in his 30 day course.

My site is way too new so I have not made any sales, but as far as I am concerned I have already made money. By signing into PIPS, I have just saved a bundle by learning what he teaches. PIPS is a door to a big house, you have no idea what’s inside until you open it, once you are in you know there is a lot of area to cover.

Cheers and happy PIPING!!

Re: Is Plug-In Profit the Best Way for A Newbie To Start?
 

The PIPS Site is a great place to start, like the others have said, don't get overwhelmed and don't expect it to all happen in a couple of months. Do the training program and keep doing, articles are a great way to start, make sure you do articles, I didn't do this to start with, I thought it was out of my comfort zone, but my business has taken off. Don't get into all the programs that come flooding into your email once you start, stick with the pips program until you have your systems in place and know where and what you are doing. Learn the affiliate sites back to front, keep on them and get into the forums and ask questions.

What are the plug in profit web sites?? I have not found any legitamate sites?? I just started wtih CB predators but I will need to wait and see if this works for me or not.

Re: Is Plug-In Profit the Best Way for A Newbie To Start?
 

PIP is still about having sites, good seo based on keywords that pay and links, links, links.

Re: Is Plug-In Profit the Best Way for A Newbie To Start?
 

Perhaps you could share with us what works and what don't work? Also more details on which program(s) you joined. Did you apply to 30-day training? How many articles have you submitted and to how many sites? What is you daily traffic stats - unique visitors?

I joined PIPS about 2 months ago. Followed the 30-day process + also what I learned from Ewen Chia as I am his student :-) I joined the entire program, upgraded them all, even GDI premium. Yes, it's $120 in total per month, including GetResponse. Well, that's slightly more than a dinner + a movie... however, I'm willing to give it all.

Here are my results:

1. SFI: I achieved GTL with 75 PSA, 166 Gen 1 + 12 Gen 2. Of the 75 PSAs, 1 GTL, 1 BTL and 6 EAs.
2. GDI: 6 Paid and 5 Trial. 18 websites in total. I think next week I'm eligible for the $100 bonus.
3. MWP: 6 Paid members. 37 Pre-enrollees.
4. Empowerism: 6 Paid members
5. TrafficSwarm: 32 referrals (non active yet, 'cause mine was CashCrate when started. TrafficSwarm implement half-way through)
6. Hostgator: 4 Active

In addition, I have 4 full PIPS sign ups.

What I did:

• Upgrade my PIPS website to a full blog with WordPress
• Dumbed in #%@! load of articles
• Focus marketing on PIPS and PIPS only
• Published 20 articles. Submitted to 30+ top sites. Still submitting at the moment.
• Create backlinks with Easy Backlink Builder for each article - this is killing me!
• A couple of Press Releases
• Advertise in Adminder, TrafficSwarm, ListJoe, ViralURL
• Bought some targeted leads directly from GetResponse (this is like putting PIPS on steroids!)
• Advertise in several high traffic directories
• Also using Ewen Chia's AutoTraffic generator. You can use any if you have.

Current Status:

• 2000+ subscribers in GetResponse ("cheated" a bit as some leads are bought, but hey, they are legitimate, genuine subscribers)
• About 500+ unique visitors to my PIPS Blog daily and growing

Grace, in my humble opinion, this is all a numbers game. Be it PIPS or not, the fundamental principles and processes to generating targeted traffic still applies. I'm still a beginner compare to so many other successful warriors here.

I feel the attitude and mindset we possess are more important than HOW we do it. It's the WHY, and how badly we want to succeed. My WHY is that I badly needed to improve my current lifestyle, as I have 3 kids, my wife isn't working and I'm staying with my in-laws together in a small flat. I need to turn the situation, it's getting unhealthy for my kids and slowing their growth. This is what is driving me MAD to succeed! I need it so badly! It's a Do or Die situation for me.

Thanks Stone and thanks Ewen Chia for all the guidance so far. Also thanks Patricia so much for helping to set up the PIP site for me. If you remember, I had so many questions and emails for you in the first two weeks. And you answered them all without fail. Thanks for your patience :-)

Re: Is Plug-In Profit the Best Way for A Newbie To Start?
 

Thanks Bill!As a "newbie' myself,it is easy to forget these important basics sometimes.After my mentor taught me to spend 1-2 hours a day doing NOTHING except that which would be considered immediatly productive;close the emails,tv,etc....and write articles,build lenses,blogs,backlinks,etc...that I began making my first sales. I found the point about keeping a budget to be valuable as I have just discovered the need to follow this principle myself...lol.Thanks again!

Re: Is Plug-In Profit the Best Way for A Newbie To Start?
 

Hi there

PIPS sounds very appealing - I like the fact that they have a forum here. A lot of IM sites for newbies - don't have any support - thus they fail.

Are PIPS affiliate sites - to promote only the core affiliate products - or can the sites be used to promote other affiliate products as well??

thanks

Re: Is Plug-In Profit the Best Way for A Newbie To Start?
 

The Plug-In Profit Site is fully customizable. We install it with the core programs included and then you have full access to the source code through the host and can do whatever you want to the site to add programs, change the look, etc.

Re: Is Plug-In Profit the Best Way for A Newbie To Start?
 

programs - meaning just ones related to Internet Marketing - or programs - for whatever- ie weight loss, arthritis etc...??

Re: Is Plug-In Profit the Best Way for A Newbie To Start?
 

In this case since our main niche is 'affiliate marketing programs', I am referring to affiliate programs.

You could add more pages for other niches, but basically I still believe what Corey Rudl said and that is that the search engines don't like a 'flea market approach' - So to focus on one niche ("lazer focus") on a site.

Our niche is also home business/work from home and all those, but they can all be related to affiliate marketng technically.

kinda sorta

Re: Is Plug-In Profit the Best Way for A Newbie To Start?
 

I believe PIP is the way to go, especially if you are just beginning.

Re: Is Plug-In Profit the Best Way for A Newbie To Start?
 

i also do feel I think PIP is the easiest and safest way for a Newbie to start.

Re: Is Plug-In Profit the Best Way for A Newbie To Start?
 

Hi, I'll add my two cents here.

Your PIPs site can be used to promote anything you want as long as it falls withing the guidlines of the Host. Most members who have been around a while have completely changed their PIPs sit to look the way they want it to.

The number one problem I see new marketers do and it's something I've done and still do is try and promote to many things on my home page. Your home page should have one main purpose and it should be lazer focused at achieving that purpose. For almost all Niches, including "work at home", building your email list should be your primary goal.

Market your PIPs sales page as much as possible but focus your website on your autoresponder sign up form.

Re: Is Plug-In Profit the Best Way for A Newbie To Start?
 

I started with Pips a couple of months ago and found it to be a great way to get a broad brush understanding of how internet marketing works. I also found joining the Affiliate Power Group a good way to move to the next level in monetizing the site.

Re: Is Plug-In Profit the Best Way for A Newbie To Start?
 

Indeed, the Plug- in profit site is a great tool and the best way for a Newbie to start. After getting a domain name, host company, and signing up for the programs you choose to promote, a website is set- up for you FREE of charge.

It is best for generating multiple streams of income. The training and support you get is great. The important thing is to get the TOOL before people i.e. advertising it. One gets to learn using a tested tool not a trial and error.

Word of caution! Set up a budget that is affordable for you until you start profiting. Then you can re- invest the profits to your online business and grow it.

Re: Is Plug-In Profit the Best Way for A Newbie To Start?
 

Hey Guys!

i'm a new PIPer, i have just started last week.
Although starting is free except the two programs(My World Plus and GDI) and webhosting(it's really cheap) now i'm reading thorugh the 30daystosuccess guide and have just reached day 6. In the last 3 lessons are advised few systems what help the IM business, these are: Co-op($197-$500-$650), Autoresponder($137), Adminder($79),
Getsubscribers($89).
And i'm only at the 6th lesson now. What will be in the next 24? :)
I understand, these tools improve the traffic, generate more visitors but quite expensive if i'm going to buy all of them.

The point: which ones of them is the most important what i should buy?
What did you do when you started the PIPS, which tools did you buy?

I belive in this system but i'd like to see a little result before i'm going to put further money in it. Ok, i know what are you thinking now: he's only at day 6, what is he want, commisions? Haha! No, NOTHING! I know i'm a rookie and i've to pass along the guide and apply as many suggestions, tips as i can. Maybe, maybe then i'll start to earn some money.

Thanks in advance!

Kirby

Re: Is Plug-In Profit the Best Way for A Newbie To Start?
 

Thanks Patricia for the explanation..from what i see PIPS is like ACME, really great..:)

Will join it after my head full of IM knowledge..:)

Re: Is Plug-In Profit the Best Way for A Newbie To Start?
 

i totally agree :)

Re: Is Plug-In Profit the Best Way for A Newbie To Start?
 

I am a newbie, only been in PIPs for about 2 weeks. I am on day 20 and I have only joined the ones I could afford at the present time. Once I start making some money I can put it back into this.

Thanks for all the info.

Re: Is Plug-In Profit the Best Way for A Newbie To Start?
 

This is the type of post I needed to read. I've been with PIPS for little over a month now and trying to learn all this new stuff. Thanks !

Re: Is Plug-In Profit the Best Way for A Newbie To Start?
 

I think GDI is the cheapest and best way to start. Sign up with GDI and then SEO your site to Dominate the first page of Google.

Re: Is Plug-In Profit the Best Way for A Newbie To Start?
 

I wouldn't recommend spending any extra money if you do not feel comfortable spending hundreds on these advertising methods. All of these methods are great and work but there are free techniques out there that you should use to start making money then invest. I will be posting free advertisement strategies on my blog if you want to stop by. :)
