Hi,

I have just gone through PIPS and fortunately I found a topic here in this forum to discuss.

Is that PIPS same which Stone Evans guides and advises? If yes then fine that I have registered to go ahead with the same.

Further, I wan to know a true answer have any of the affiliates or participants in PIPS has earned a true income from their site, if your answer is yes then what approximate time you took and how your PIPS website is performing now.

Only true answers are really admired.

Regards

Hello SEORaghu -

Yes PIPS is Stone Evans' Plug-In Profit Site

I will let others answer the other part as although I have been a PIPS member for 5 years, I have worked for Stone for 4 of those years, so you might not believe me.

People can and do make money with PIPS.

I know that there are sales made every single day for those 4 years. However, it seems the busy members don't come to the forum much after the first year or so, so keep that in mind.

We have members who have joined and quit and come back several times -this is very common and I imagine it is because after seeing what else is out there, they realize it is a good program and that they hadn't given it their full attention. They then come back and plan to actually use all of the resources that Stone provides to them free.

When a program 'doesn't work' (not just PIPS) it is more than likely that it is the people who don't work.

They think that there is magic on the Net and just by virtue of having a sales page or website that is all they need - (not true - they need to market and advertise diligently OVER TIME).

They don't treat it like they would treat a job because nobody is holding them accountable, and don't give it much effort especially if money doesn't come pouring out of their hard drive in 2 weeks.

Then they quit before they give it a chance to produce results.

Then they say 'the program doesn't work'.

They say 95% fail on the Internet. That is because only 5% don't quit.

'You can't fail unless you quit.'

'What goes around comes around'. (make enough effort; you will eventually see the results of your actions either way)

Pat,

Couldn't have put it any better!

Dear Pat

Thanks four prompt answers.

Yes you are right that if we put effort we can make anything from the internet. Even I fall with those who quit and return.

I really pretty on me, I have been with several affiliate but does not follow on any one for long time. But sure for this time, I would take it seriously and would work 1-2 hours every day and more during week ends on PIPS with Stone and make my best efforts to learn and implement.

Thanks again.

Essentially PIPS is the same as building your own fully loaded website, putting affiliate links and other monetization methods on it, and taking the necessary steps towards getting it ranked highly on Google and other search engines, as well as utilizing other marketing and traffic generation strategies to make money online. Thousands of people do that every day and earn a great living from it. So, yes, it is definitely possible.

What PIPS does is offer you a sort of all-in-one solution to doing all of the above while also offering training and support to help you along. For the average person it makes it a LOT easier than doing it all yourself.

[jvsmith]

Pat said it best...I joined PIPS years ago and did nothing with it. But I came back two and a half months ago and have seen success, but only because I have worked hard and followed Stone's advice. You'll get out of PIPS what you put into it

[jvsmith]

Very good point Lupe...we don't have to do a lot of the dirty work of finding good programs, Stone does that for us! We don't have to train enrollees, Stone does that for us! And we don't have to deal with unruly customers, Pat does that for us!!! All we have to do is tell people about it...

Over the years I have seen business opportunities come and go that were part of PIPS and the strong ones stay. As the demand for them declined they were removed and replaced with current biz opps that were producing. Promoting the affiliate link allowed me to not have to readvertise when those new biz opps joined PIPS because they were already part of the same affiliate link I had advertised once before. I sometimes get signups with tracking codes I set up to my affiliate link years ago.Besides we have the oldest and strongest biz opps on the web. Why do double or triple the work when you can do it once with the affiliate? Just my two sense.

Hello everybody,

This is a motherly advice to every online marketer.

Pat continue with your good work of motivation and inspiring.

I am really struggling with my PIPS.
I have been online now for lamost 1 month, but up till today, not a single person signed up their e-mail nor have I got any "sales" through the links on my site.
Probably I am doing something wrong, but I am really struggling.
I guess it is to early to say if it works or not. (how long time did it take for you to start build your own address list)?

I will not give up yet

Hi KallP,

Friend, 1 month is nothing...
You have just started. Long way to go.

If you work very hard, you can see results from 3rd month onwards.
If you work reasonably hard, you can see results from 5th-6th month onwards.
If you work moderately, you can see results after 1 year may be.
And if you work very little or no at all, you can see results NEVER.

Just keep in mind what Pat said, it's a wonderful post.

If you don't know what is working hard meant, don't have to, just follow Stone's 30 day guide deligently.

It is sure to work if put into action, there's no escaping from it.

Cheers!

I did the PIPs thing when I first started internet marketing. It didn't work for me. All it is is a big MLM scheme that upsells and upsells you at the beginning. If you find use of the products then that is a bonus. Quickstar is the same thing essentially.

I signed up directly under Stone Evans and never got anything from him but automated emails no matter how many times I tried to contact him. I don't mean to be rude and I would rather not get flamed. I just am offering the truth of my experience.

I spent a few hundred in the first couple weeks and loads more hours. In my honest opinion, if you don't like amway or quickstar, then you will not like PIPs.

On a positive note, everything is built for you. It is litterally plug in and go. All you have to do is get traffic and help affiliates and keep purchasing stuff. So, it can work if you work it.

[45TDog5111]

While I have only been a PIPs member 4 months I cannot comment on the money side as of yet. Nor do I have any plans on quitting. I do believe there is money to be made. Someone also mentioned "all" the free service. That was the key to getting me to sign up. However I have found not many free services to help me grow. This is why I know it will take me even longer than most because I am a true "Unemployed"" person. PIPs Help cannot help unless you have money along with many of the marketing services. Still, there are a few benefit. PIPS did pave the way for me to start my education (as difficult as it is), so I wouldn't change that fact. And....I'll bide my time and wait for the money to come in.

[talfighel]

You also MUST have the right MINDSET to succeed.

If you take action and do everything that you need to do to succeed with PIPS and have a not so good attitude, then you will probably fail.

It is important that you have the right mindset all the time. Keep your eyes on the prize. Say good things to yourself.

2 books that I recommend every pipster should read:

What to say when you talk to yourself By Shad Helmstetter.

The Tongue. A creative force. By Charles Capps.

There are many free services out there to help you grow, you just have to find them. I'll be posting many free aresenal of tools that have helped my business grow on my blog if you care to take a look. I also got this ebook that should help you (My_Daily_Aresenal_of_tools.pdf).

[ara67]

I tried and did not get the training needed, all I got was to spend more money to get people do things for you, and I did follow the 31 day message to success even though he set's you up with hosting, he makes money as an affiliate, but may that be as it is since it may work for some not for me since I like to learn how to things myself.

This is the part where I stumble. I think this is the toughest part. I have tried several things, but so far no success. What would the best warrior suggestion be for a newbie like me?

[Stephen Meyer]

Write articles, well written articles not the junk most people post, and use your squeeze page in the Author Resource Box, use traffic exchanges with a squeeze page only, post on Web 2.0 sites and use your squeeze page as your links.

Getting traffic to your website should be one goal but not the major goal because it will take a lot of time and work to get a steady flow of customers, especially a large number of visitors. So build your list, make it a priority in every thing you do. When ever you see an opportunity to promote your website use your squeeze page instead. Don't count on the signup form on your website to build your list, it will take forever, use a squeeze page.

My ideas on marketing, traffic is not King, not by a long shot. Customers are King, Buyers are King, and you don't get them overnight. Build a list of loyal subscribers and you'll have a list of buyers.

Need help building a squeeze page let me know, I'll help for free. The only catch, you'll have to sign up to my list.

Thanks for your post.
Sure, I could really need help with a squeeze page.
I'm really new at this but working on moving forward, step by step.
What do you need from me to help me with a squeeze page?

Of course I'll sign up to your list :p

[45TDog5111]

To M. Meyers

Thanks for the .pdf. I'll give it a good look. As for looking, that much I do agree with. I have found many free helpful tools, and not just cheap freebies. I even found a semi-mentor who gives me advice and doesn't try to sell. He is not even in PIPS. So it does help to search and not give up. Again, I'm knocking PIPS. It's like anything in this world. It's not completely as it seems and not everything is free.

[cborgrx]

I have been dabbling on line for over a year but only recently discovered pips. Signed up about a month ago....started the 30 day guide....I am at day 19 now (join the warrior forum...duh) . Since I have done everything Stone has asked me to do (Not free BTW), I do feel that in short time (3-6 mon) I will start to see the results for all my efforts. Never felt that with anything else I have done. I hope the $$$ follows. Time will tell.
