Hi PIPSters,

There's a quote I'd like to share:

The Only Constant Thing In Life Is Change

In the past month, there have been many changes
to the PIPS system and while I can't really do anything
about it, I understood that change is constant in the
PIPS system.

I'd much rather have a system that updates itself and
changes accordingly rather than another system that
claims to be the only solution for a work at home
program that never updates.

It's only natural that people are resistant to change
due to inertia and many other factors but as the
president of the United States says...

"Change is coming"

Changes are happening but I believe Stone and his
team are on it...

For the people who have been with the PIPS longer
than I have, I'm sure you can recall some of the
changes that Stone has done with the PIPS system...

I for one can remember the Reverse Funnel System.

Change is happening with the system and I'm 100%
sure it'll keep on changing and evolving with the
times. Just keep on doing what you do and work
accordingly - it's a much better course of action
then asking why this was dropped and why that was
added - no? :p

Very well put Asher. PIPS is indeed always changing for the better.

This is a really scary time for us in the economic disasters all around us and all of the 'maya' or illusions that are being revealed to those of us who were blindly patriotic and/or 'bury our heads in the sand'.

This is hard times. We are in a recession and many experts predict an all out depression before this turns around. We can sit here and cry in our beer and say 'woe is me' or we can roll with the punches.

While it may be disastrous now for those poor folks that will lose or have already lost their jobs, their pensions, and their homes, this is an opportunity for people to find the 'alternative life style' of working from home on the internet. So let's show them how!

My other favorite saying besides 'there is nothing constant except change' is 'if the world gives you lemons, make lemonade'!

So we got the lemons, now let's make lemonade and be more aggressive in our efforts to succeed online and help people who are coming in beside and behind us!

Heres to ya!

I do believe change can be necessary at times in our lives. This is true online as well. Overall I am not one to make changes or at the very least I am slow to change.

I am also one who feels if I make a change to my internet business I want to think it thru before I make it, and then I try and stick with it. I think all of the changes Stone has made to the "30 Days" training makes any change to the sales page stand out more.

To me it gives the appearance even Stone does not know what he is doing online anymore. I guess a poor economy and drop in sales can do that to any of us.

Anyway hopefully things will stablize here and we can all have a good 2009!

Hi,

These are hard times and here in the UK we are seeing many layoffs, home repossessions, long established businesses going to the wall and it is all very sad. At times like these we can either go under or fight our way back.

I am a great believer in the human spirit and things will get better, hopefully sooner rather than later but for those poor folks who have lost their jobs or may be looking for a second income then we can all help. This business is well placed to help people so maybe we can expect a good year for recruitment and growth, at least I hope so. It is understandable that the PIPS site is changing all the time because I am sure Stone is trying to maximise his business in difficult times too but it does get a bit confusing.

regards,

Mal.

I like the change regarding the hosting options, adding HostGator into the mix. That was a very good change that was made.

One change I don't like is replacing Success University for Web Prosperity. Where was the thinking in that? SU is a top notch program and actually cheaper than WP's Elite package or whatever it's called.

I'm not sure how WP somehow became better than SU. That's a change that shouldn't have been made.

I like the change to the HostGator option. The other to Socialism... Not so much. Be careful what you hope for, you may wake up next to it some morning.

I gotta agree with you on that.

We are in the period of change. Companies are closing, many people are biking to work while others are walking just to save money to have a meal or pay bills. Its good time to hand out that business card and offer alternative income to those folks seeking employment.
And I think Stone is a visionary man who thinks ahead.. looking for ways to keep PIPS viable in this ailing economy .For those of you who are close to him, give him the support and strength so that he keeps on improving this business for the benefit of newbies and the PRO's alike!

I made a few changes myself in the internet marketing arena. I have made the decision to promote opportunities that can get a newbie home full time in just a few months.

There are a good number of affiliate programs that I see others promote online that can do NOTHING for the person who is struggling with their economic situation.

That is why I decided in 2009 to focus my attention on REALLY helping people earn a full time income within a few short months with a program that really works and has been working WELL for so many other people.

I am not going to post it here because I don't really want to SPAM the forum.

Stone has been using this program QUIETLY and making very good progress and it is called the Reverse Funnel System. I have been in it myself for about 3 weeks or so and already made at least ONE sale.

1 sale = $1000 to ME.

Anyway, Good post and I hope that I Pat won't delete my post.

The only thing I can say about change is this:

In business you have to change and adapt because if you do not, you will fold under. You have to keep things fresh and new. If they work consistently over the long haul (SFI, Empowerism) they stay. If not, (RFS, Leisure Audio, etc..) you have to make changes.
Stone not only makes changes that benefit himself, but I feel to the PIPS group as a whole.

Just because Stone stops promoting something on PIPS, that does not mean that you have to stop promoting it as well. Many people forget over and over again -

This is YOUR business and you can change, edit, remove, delete, quit, start, enhance, buy, sell, forget, remember, or parade anything you want to on your site or blog. If SU is not on your PIPS page anymore, so what? Offer it on your blog or website. Ta-da!

IT IS YOUR business - quit taking everything to heart and do what works for you. Stone is trying to make it better for the group. Which is good in my opinion.

Stay the course, hold your own hand, grow up, and find your strengths to gain success.

Hi Doug,

I agree with you totally.

BUT... I don't see how replacing SU for WP is beneficial to the PIPS program.

I do promote SU outside of PIPS. You can see the banners on my blog, and I also have other connections that I advertise with.

My main point with that is that overall I don't see any good with what WP has to offer. I may be the only one here that thinks that, but I believe SU has A LOT more value in the program itself, not to mention the comp plan.
