Do you have MSN,AIM,or AOL messanger that i could contact you on? I would like to learn more about this.
Hi 991,
Hmmm.... I wish there was a PM feature on this board so I could send you my info that way...
My husband has an msn messenger account that I can use.  Email me at tylersmom AT gmail.com and we can set up a time and day to talk.  Other than that, I only have YIM, if that is possible. Just let me know...

I am seriously considering the PAS (Megawealth) opportunity. I have done a lot of DD on my own, but have some additional questions. I have found through previous experience that it truly is a lifesaver for newbie online marketers like me to have a SUPER SUPPORTIVE upline! Therefore, I would like a reponse from any of you who have already taken advantage of this opportunity, regarding the following:
- In addition to the sign-up costs, what is your actual monthly outlay for self promotion (ie. ppc, direct mail, etc.)?
- I know some people are successful right out of the gate, due to the fact that they have established huge opt-in lists from previous ventures (I don't have this advantage). What effect is that going to have being able to only utilize the Traffic Packs, ppc, etc.? Also, what is the difference between a Traffic pack and purchasing leads thru the program?
- What is your online marketing experience? What level did you join PAS at?
- Do you use the standard opt-in page provided by Megawealth (PAS) or do you have your own domain for capturing leads?
- How often do you really speak with your prospects via phone?
- Does the megawealth team provide you with autoresponder emails and newsletters, or, if you even use them, do you have to generate your own?
- What nature are the "Products" that you can choose to promote on your website for PAS?
I'm sure I will come up with additional questions...but have asked quite a few already and would like to see the responses I receive to the above.
Again, I am very interested and seriously considering this, so any responses are appreciated!
Thanks!

- In addition to the sign-up costs, what is your actual monthly outlay for self promotion (ie. ppc, direct mail, etc.)?
Personally, and I know that everyone can't afford this, I spend about $3000 in PPC per month. BUT, that nets me an average of 2 sales per week, or a little over $20,000 per month
- I know some people are successful right out of the gate, due to the fact that they have established huge opt-in lists from previous ventures (I don't have this advantage). What effect is that going to have being able to only utilize the Traffic Packs, ppc, etc.? Also, what is the difference between a Traffic pack and purchasing leads thru the program?
Someone selling to their list doesn't really have much of an effect on other people's ability to find referrals. It's a big world out there!
The traffic packs are basically just rotational PPC ads. If you have poked around google looking for good opportunities, chances are that you have seen the PPC ads titled "Tired of MLM Scams" or something to that effect- those are the traffic pack rotator links.
The leads are different. Mega Wealth Group outsourced a lead generation company that provides phone surveyed leads. You buy a certain number from the lead company and after being surveyed, these people are directed to your website and actually, they are now auto opted in to your site as well.
I did get 1 sale off of the MWG leads, but it's all luck of the draw...
- What is your online marketing experience? What level did you join PAS at?
I really haven't been "marketing" that long. Last October, I started taking a leadership approach toward a business called Canadian Diamond Traders which was my first REAL marketing endevour. I have done well with that, doing mostly forum and splash page adverting. With PAS, which I consider my second true marketing endevour, this is the first that I have used PPC and obviously, it's working!
I joined at the $3895 level so I wouldn't have to worry about upgrading and requalifying myself again later in order to take advantage of the $3000 commissions (Basic level members can only earn up to $1100 per sale)
- Do you use the standard opt-in page provided by Megawealth (PAS) or do you have your own domain for capturing leads?
I use the Megawealth page
- How often do you really speak with your prospects via phone?
Occasionally, after someone talks with a team leader, they do ask to speak with their sponsor afterward- just to get a feel for the person I think... I mean, you want to work with someone down to earth and helpful, right??
So, I have spoken with a few of my members over the phone and do send out occasional emails to all, just to make sure they are all doing alright.
- Does the megawealth team provide you with autoresponder emails and newsletters, or, if you even use them, do you have to generate your own?
They have an autoresponder system that auto mails all of your opt-ins with info on the system, any prospect calls, etc. There is also a section in your back office which allows you to autosend your own message directly to everyone through an autoresponder.
- What nature are the "Products" that you can choose to promote on your website for PAS?
That's up to you... It can be anything really. I see you are in 1-step and that happens to be one of the 4 that PAS is planning on introducing to the membership as options
So, there are my responses, Steelers Fan! I hope you find them helpful!
Regards,
Christy

I just received notice from a team leader that one of my downline members got his qualifying sale!
It's great to be succeeding myself, but it's even better to be seeing my downline succeed!

WealthyWAHM-
Thank You so much for the answers to my questions. As stated, I am seriously considering this opportunity. 1Step is my 1st venture and I have another, as well, but thinking of dropping it and making PAS my "other" venture.
Again, Your input is greatly appreciated!

Hello,
I've come across PAS and it sounds very good. I however have my doubts when an online company states that they will do ALL of the work for you for a monthly fee....Has anyone reaped anything from the "Traffic Paks" yet? I am a average American that works very hard to make a living, especially living here in Calif. Its very hard to make ends meet here and when something like this comes along it really intrigues me because of the income possibilities.
I certainly would love to participate in this program, who would'nt love to be able to make $1100.00-$3000.00 per sale and reap the rewards of the 1-UP sale as well! However, I think the vast majority of people that have been introduced to this including myself that are still on the fence want to know if this really works and will it be around for the long term!
I do however understand one thing for sure, and that is a person that joins this must advertise on their own to make a large amount of money. This is where it gets kind of sticky for me. I work paycheck to paycheck and if I were to join I would need to invest $1995.00 or $3895.00 to start. Then $190.00 for "traffic paks". Then I would need to advertise on my own to really get going with a good start.
My main question would be, How much "total" (if I started with the $3895 level) money would I and an average person with little knowledge of marketing need to invest in order to profit with this system? I feel that this is a good thing and the people that created it have good intentions but, I want to make sure that this really works not only for me but for other average people. I want to help people get out of the RAT race just as bad as I want out. This seems like a good program that can do that for us. I just want a honest answer or feedback........Thanks and God Bless!

Hi American Worker,
First off, I want to start off by letting you know that the $190/mo fee is no longer a requirement, per se. It used to be that EVERYONE had to have at least 1 traffic pack per month running in order to be part of the program. As of about a month ago, that was changed so that ANYONE who wanted to make sure that they were still qualified under the terms of the 100% money back guarantee was required to purchase the $190/mo traffic packs (at least 1 per month). Now, PAS corporate is in discussions with the FTC over the terms of the money back guarantee, and if the terms can not be agreed upon by tomorrow, May 1st, it is possible that the guarantee will no longer be available to new members- those in by tomorrow are still covered under it (grandfathered in).
What this means is that there will be no reason for new signees to be concerned about the traffic packs and they will have their choice to allocate those funds that would have been used for traffic packs to their own advertising if they would prefer to do so.
My experience with the traffic packs- I only have 1 traffic pack running. So far, that traffic pack has resulted in a few opt-ins for me, but no sales. Basically, just running on those is going to be hit or miss.... If you figure that they work on a rotator, with several people being attached to the same one, it's really a crap shoot whether you will be the one to reap the sale or someone else will...
Don't get me wrong, I am not totally saying that just working off of the traffic packs is going to bring you nothing. What I am saying is there being so many people in the rotator with you, your exposure is diminsihed and it's hit or miss whether you are going to see any action! So, it may take a lot longer than if you advertise for yourself.
If you use that $190 to run your own advertising and have your link exposed 24-7, you are more likely to see some action.
Now... what that means for someone like you, who claims to have limited advertising/marketing experience... Basically, it means finding yourself a good sponsor that can/will teach you tricks of the trade and is helpful.... A sponsor that is running co-ops to cut the cost of good advertising for their downline. Things like that.
There are good teams out there that provide resources like this. The team that I am part of is working on things like this all the time, I happen to know grahill (Gail) who posted on page 2 of this thread and her and her partner also have resources like this for their team, I also know that Delecia, who posted on page 1 of this thread is helpful with her team.... So, teamwork does matter.
Trust me, I wouldn't have done half as well as I have if it weren't for my very supportive sponsor who was nice enough to share some of his tricks of the trade with me!
So, essentially, I can't give you a set figure for what it is going to take to put you in profit... It really does depend on where your advertising dollars are placed, if you were able to get yourself into a co-op opportunity and how many other people are in that with you (more people, lower cost), etc.
Sorry I couldn't hlep out more there, but I hope what I did say made total sense.
Regards,
Christy

Why do I love PAS? This site is truly automated. I do some of my own promoting, and I'm having great success, averaging $3,000-$6,000 per week. The best thing about it is that I don't have to make any calls myself, which frees me up to spend more quality time with my family.
I've tried several other home businesses, and this is the first one in which I qualified in under a week, and withing one week, I had made $6,000 in profit. I can't tout this same success with any other biz opps I've tried.
Rah rah PAS!

WealthyWAHM,
Thanks for your response! The main reason that I was considering joining PAS was because of the "Guarantee".....Now you are stating that there may no longer be a "Guarantee" for new members correct? If thats the case do you think sign ups will be decreasing? Thanks for your honesty!

Hi AmericanWorker,
PAS wants to keep the guarantee in tact as much as we all want it to stay in tact... It is the selling point which set this business apart from every other similar business out there!
However, even without the words "100% Money back guarantee" being displayed anywhere on the site this week, I have still been getting just as many sign ups and sales.
If it is removed, who knows, they may reinstate it if they can find a way to make the wording/ terms comply with the FTC. I am sure they will do everything in their power to do so anyway...
Regards,
Christy

I agree that it is a great selling point! Most people, I would imagine would agree that a system that has a guarantee is much better than one that does not. $1995-$3895 is alot of money for most people especially if there is NOT a guarantee. However, I believe that people that want to do this on a "Traffic Pak" passive manner will probably be more trouble to you than people that want to run with this! It takes time for the Traffic Paks to rotate correct?A nd for some folks their patience probably would run out and they then will begin to complain. I still believe that everything takes effort not only in this but in everyday life. I myself was ready to go with this but that GREAT selling point will no longer be there......Congrats on your success with this, i'm glad someone is doing good with PAS....Take care and thanks again for you honest feedback!

PAS sounds pretty good to me - I've heard of several people taking significant commissions away from it, and using it successfully to build other businesses.
Are the traffic packs worth what they cost?

The traffic packs work but they do take a lot more time than you advertising yourself. The company is working on making them better.
The saturday training that starts at 1pm est is going to help a lot of people have success marketing for themselves.
The thing that I love about P.A.S is you can market your other business using this system and create multiple income streams. Being able to offer 6 opportunites in one spot is a plus and the 7th op is the P.A.S system itself.
If you have any questions just shoot me an email.

Have you opted into anyone's website yet?
If so, you should get updates for when the prospect calls are.
If you are referring to member calls, you would have to get the info for the call from your sponsor.

I, personally, think that the traffic pack traffic could be better BUT, I think that the underlying reason for it being kind of weak right now has to do with the fact that PAS has been a bit lenient on trying to get the monthly traffic pack fee from people...
With all of the changes to the website, they sort of "let us all be" for a while and didn't expire the traffic packs right at the 1 month mark, so people like me, who decided to stop using the traffic packs after I had made a profit, were still getting traffic beyond our 1 month mark. This put more people in the rotator then should have actually been there and less funds to pay for the maketing for them... hence, poorer results.
They have started taking the people that shouldn't be in the rotator out now, and just started sending email reminds back out to those that have packs expiring soon, so the combo of fewer people in rotation and more money should make for much better traffic.
In my opinion, there is still nothing better than running your own advertising for traffic 24-7.

I have to agree with you there, Tony.
I just added 3 new businesses to my back office last night and since then, I have had 2 sales off of 3 clicks for one of them!

JOBVISA,
Quoting: jobvisa Most of the home based jobs are scam.so,to remove the scam serious thinking is urgently needed.
I am NOT looking for a Home Based JOB! There may be alot of "Home Based JOBS" that are scams. This however looks to me like a viable way to create a significant amount of money and at the same time helping other folks make a significant amount of money! I am still in research mode here. I may or may not participate in this program, but as far as I can see it looks very good to me. Definitely, NOT A SCAM!
Thanks for all of the current members of PAS for your honest feedback! I really do appreciate it! Becase of you, this system will THRIVE!

Hi Everyone!
I looked at this board a couple of months back and thought, "Hmm, this PAS thing sounds good."...I kept thinking though and wasn't wise enough to join on then.
I love the fact that everyone here seems so helpful and friendly, and am posting to seek some advice. I joined PAS just a couple of days ago and have an advertising budget of approx. $6K. I want to jump into this thing head first, and would appreciate any and all marketing succesess/failures anyone would feel free to share. I have joined on with Phone Power and my sponsor says that should qualify me and have me in positive cash flow as soon as I get it all set up. He says he is averaging three sales a week of just that, but has anyone else used PhonePower? Any great success?
This message board is so great! I hope that I can help others too as I continue on with PAS and can soon share my testimony of this great system and income opportunity!
Thanks everyone for your posts that have led me to this blessing in my life!
Sincerely,
Stan in Alabama

Ioriq,
I think there is a way that you only pay $49.95, but you would have to give up your first three sales...Does anyone else have any feedback about this? Don't want to give out the wrong info! I am currently working a system right now that is in Pre-Launch. It is absolutely awesome! It also has the 1-UP concept and can be done in a totally passive manner! I would give out my website but I respect the Admin of this Forum. If Admin says its ok I will be glad to share with all who are interested! By the way, its NOT Gifting!

Pas is one of the greatest that is been created for the average person that dont know how to market there products.
Pas takes over the marketing for them and also they can make money buy selling the system as well.

tikikitty-
I doubt that will ever become a problem...
There are BILLIONS of new people that search for home based businesses on a daily basis. As long as people continue to age and the population continues to grow, there will be new people looking for what PAS, and other businesses, has to offer.
Also, it isn't really a one time sale. When you join PAS, you join for a period of 3 years. When your 3 years are up, it's your decision whether to re- up or not.

To all current PAS members-
How do you like the new corporate website?
I'm actually finding that it, and the new autoresponder messages, are getting a better response than the megwealth website and I like that I can customize it a bit more to my liking and just make it a bit more "me".
