Where Does the Money Come From?
It is often said that signing up to Free programmes must be some sort of scam. Where does the money come from to pay people, if you don't have to pay to join the system?
As someone who had only ever looked at free programmes, I suddenly began to think this must be true, I wasn't making any money right? So then I figured the reason was because I hadn't paid anything.
But one thing you will notice about most (if not all) free programmes is that they require a couple of things from you.
1 - sign up to a list. this enables you to be targeted for other opportunities that do cost money. The risk is taken that you will at some point spend some money so the outlay of the free programme is covered by the profits of the next one.
2 - One Time Offers - how many of these have you seen? And just for the record, how many of them are actually 'one time'? a lot of money is made from these however. Lots of people will sign up immediately so again the cost of giving you a little amount of money from a Free programme, is covered by the huge profits made from the sales on the OTO's.
3 - subscription to a marketing magazine/ezine/newsletter. These are jammed with advertisements and again many people will buy from those ads. The revenue generated from the advertisers goes to pay those who promote it and get others to subscribe.
So the way I look at it, there is always money to be made from free programmes. It may not make you as much as those programmes that require an upfront cost or a monthly subscription. But it will make you money if you promote it correctly. And if you choose wisely.
Check out these Free programmes which can make you money - watch out for the one time offers!
Good luck with them all. And remember, the money to pay you comes from the 'side servings'. So don't believe you can't make money just because you haven't spent it.
Have I made money on any of them? Yes, I have. Which one(s)?
Well, now that would be telling. LOL.

Free products are given and they will entice (or lure) you to upgrade to a better and robust features they have in the system. Take the case of
