I would advice people on this forum not to join kiyoe.com. Those people only make false promises and do not give any work. Once u pay the registration fees, then they switch off their cells and will not be accessible to any one at any time.

I've just heard that there is going to be an investigation here in Australia in relation to some home based business which I think is a long time overdue, Many of the business which I think will be investigated are those which are on the borderline of being a scam but the only thing that is not making them being that way is that they are offering a product even though it's not widely wanted by the consumer.

A good and legit money making opportunity does require a lot of patience and skill. I'm new to the marketing arena, just about a week now, and I've learned so much already however I know there's much, much, much more to be learned to earn the success that these opportunities advertise.
The program I am in is legit, it's actually your own business you're buying into, so there is an upfront cost- as with any business you start-but one sale and you're in profit mode. Of course there is advertising involved that can be an extra cost. However, there are plenty of free ways to advertise as well.
Utilize all your options (free and paid) for advertising and marketing and you will see lasting results. Be persistent too, don't give up...anything worth having is worth your time and effort.

I totally agree with alot of the posts on here. Like a few have said if it says its a 'get rich quick' scheme or that you can make loads of money by not doing a lot then run a mile!
I fell into these traps a couple of times until i eventually found something that wasn't a scam but these are very few and fair between unfortunately, which is a shame.
Just do your research into it first because if there are alot of people saying its a scam it probably is!

All of you have some very good input and I agree with most of it. I am fairly new to having a home business working with affiliate marketing, writing articles and so forth. I have always been a skeptic about these type of programs. I am familiar with affiliate marketing but unfamiliar with many other types of home businesses. Does anybody find that a certain program works better than another? I have found that writing articles and promoting other products works for me but would never have known this if I didn't try one after another until I found a few that worked well. Most of the programs that are advertised do say some obscure things (i.e. make a $1,000/day with only a few hours worth of work), when in reality it takes a long time to buld into that which is true with any business you are going to choose to run. Someone said earlier in this post that you have to pay for the knowledge which is fine with me because know I realize how much of their time and energy was spent on developing a program or a website to guide us through "how to make money" from your couch. This is all good stuff and I appreciate the forum. It lets us know that others are out there trying to better themselves in a tough economy by making a few extra bucks.

If you can't call the creator(s) of the business, or their assistants, and have your questions answered before you sign up, if your expected to dive head first into a potentially shallow pool without being able to test the depth of their knowledge/reputation, than I wouldn't bother with it.
There are too many people making thousands of dollars each day with a simple system that they are willing to teach you (not have you work within, as a link) for the cost of your overhead just to get a good testimonial on their site (the more money you make the better this works for them), to merit messing around with unproven gimmicks offering similar or smaller returns on your investment

Hi everyone! I'm new to this forum and I'm blown away. Kudos to Vishal for creating such a wonderful resource for at-homers.
My full time vocation is developing my artist portfolio, and because that's my passion I've scoured the internet and fallen prey to quite a few 'too good to be trues' (I've come to view them as bumps in the road less traveled. lol) But I was determined to find a way to benefit from this vast resource right at my fingertips in an earnest effort to enjoy more time behind the canvas. It's inspiring to come across other successful entrepreuners that have taken the chance on themselves too!
This post has pretty much echoed my experience in finding the right work at home opportunity. One thing is for sure though. Once you find the right opportunity, doing the work becomes an exciting challenge. You uncross your fingers, and put them to work! I'm challenging my mind every single day to take all the information I possibly can in. I look at it as an investment in myself, and all the hard work isn't so hard.
Anyway, looking forward to offering any advice or resources I can to all you fellow work-at-homers out there. This is a prickly pursuit, and we could all use all the help and support we can get!

hi all.
i've seen and applied for loads of working from home scams - but not anymore. i wised up after two years, just not getting anywhere. something i'd like to add though is this. some say that if a sales page leaves a landline phone number this is proof of legitimacy. Not so. i don't i'm allowed to mention this scammer but he has his phone number on his page and he anwers queries, yet he scammed me out of �70 and he is actually on a scammer site noted as such. so doube, triple beware of them folks.......

Making money online is never easy, so if it seems to easy then it surely must be a scam.

Great advice. If it seems to good to be true, it probably is. Working at home takes a lot of time and effort. There is no legal way to make money online without work.

hi. just like to add to the comments on how to spot a scam.
one good way is to put the name of the company or person in the search engine together with the word "scam" and watch the results page. if it's a scam you can be sure that someone out there knows about it and has written something on the internet as a warning. hope that helps..

I agree there are a lot of scams out there and I've contributed my fair share. However, there are legitimate work at home opportunities. I've found a few and have been working online from home for about six months. While I still continue with my day job my goal is to one day soon completely devote myself to working from home.
I try to stay away from scams with big targeted ads that cost money and while I don't mind paying for marketing materials I use those that have a money back guarantee.
I feel very confident in promoting others products at this stage but am very selective about those I choose. I use Click Bank, Commission Juntion, Share A Sale, Pay Dot Com, Link Share and others.
The idea is to research and think through any opportunity before jumping in.

Performing due diligence and having a plan is the absolute first step before entering any financial or business venture.

The best way to identify a scam as opposed to something that could actually benefit you is to do your homework. If you are not diligent as far as reading up on a prospective program's track record, you probably are going to lose out on that transaction. No one is here to lose money, especially with the economy in the shape its in at this current time. So please DO YOUR HOMEWORK...

Hi Everyone,
Today there are so many programs all claim to have the KEY to making BIG$$$$ online. My goal is to always do a good back ground check on the company or the owner of the company before I send a DIME. This has saved me a lot of money.
