Short Sale Defined – A short sale is a situation where a distressed seller must sell their house for less money than the mortgage balance. A short sale is suitable for owners whose financial situation requires that they sell their interest in their home and are unable to qualify for other loss mitigation techniques. A simple definition of a short sale is when the owner must sell their property and the property value has fallen below the loan amount.
Will my bank allow a short sale? – Banks DO NOTwant to do a foreclosure. A foreclosure cost the bank lots of money and data has shown that after a bank gains a property by foreclosure it is in much worse condition than other solutions because of unhappy owners who leave the property a mess or in damaged conditions. A short sale helps the bank preserve losses and helps the home owner maintain their credit. When you are in a distressed situation your bank is more willing to allow a short sale as opposed to foreclosing on your home.
Will my FHA loan be considered for a short sale? – Yes a bank will allow a short sale on an FHA loan. In fact FHA has introduced the Pre-Foreclosure Short Sale Program or PFS that will pay the seller up to $1,000 at the end of the short sale just for participating in the program. This allows you to transition to more affordable housing without the impact of foreclosure.
Can I do a short sale if I’m current on my payments? – No you do not need to be late on your payments to to get short sale approval. There is additional info below on what is required for short sale approval but it is important to know that a short sale can be done simply because the value of the house has fallen below the mortgage value or if the seller has faced hard times. Basically you don’t need to be late just in a hardship situation. A short sale will not be approved if you want to move because the house next door has a loud barking dog or if kids keep running through your yard. A distressed situation is necessary for short sale approval.
Will I have to pay a tax loss if I do a short sale? – In most cases you will not be required to pay taxes on the loss. in 2007 the Mortgage Debt Relief Act was passed that did away with taxes paid on the loss in a short sale. It was common practice for banks to deliver a 1099 tax form to the recent short seller that ordered the seller to pay a tax on the banks loss. These activities have been temporarily halted due to our current economic state. Currently the Mortgage Debt Relief Act has been scheduled to last through 2012. It is important to consult a certified accountant in regard to your personal situation because not all short sales are protected. For example investors selling an investment home through a short sale are not exempt from paying this tax.
How many months will a short sale last? – A well thought out short sale plan will get fast results. Many uneducated real estate agents will fumble through a short sale for 7 months to over a year and at frequent times fail in attempt to ever get a short sale approval. A good short sale real estate professional will rapidly finalize the short sale process and get your home sold in about 60 days from contract date. Short sales are a highly technical business and it takes qualified experts who will finalize the process at a quick pace. Our Columbus Ohio Short Sale Package is designed for quick results.

I am a Columbus Ohio Short Sale Realtor and my goal is to get your home sold and keep you out of foreclosure. I will also discuss other options with you that you might consider before starting a short sale.
Let us now dig a little deeper into what a short sale is and some other possible alternatives.
When a seller must sell and there is not enough equity in the property to pay off the mortgage it is call a short sale. A short sale is needed for home owners whose financial situation or predicament dictates that they sell their home and they are unable to qualify for other loss mitigation options. A short sale is when the value of the property has dropped below the current mortgage balance that needs to be paid off.
Knowing your options before a short sale is important to know. Often times if you are behind on your loan it is "curable" and there is a good possibility that you are able to replace lost wages or cut your expenses. Here are some curable options to consider before a short sale:
Special Forbearance – A special forbearance is a payment agreement between you and your lending bank that comprises of a plan to reinstate your loan after it is in non-payment status. Some options could include repayment over a time period, a reduction of your monthly payment for a limited time, or a plan for you to resume complete monthly payments but holding off on missed installments. In a sense your bank is allowing you to get caught up on your missed payments.
Loan Modification – A loan modification is a permanent alteration to your mortgage. It designates that your loan will be reinstated and sets in place a monetary obligation that you can afford. Loan modifications allow for a number of options such as decreasing your interest rate, or expanding the time available to pay back the mortgage by re-amortization the amount owed. It’s similar to applying for a new loan but be forewarned not all will get approved for a modification.
Combining Options – Your lender can also combine the above to accomplish a preferred conclusion. All mortgage companies are a little different on how they deal with these issues. The idea behind the mitigation process is to keep you from losing your property and help you recover from a adjustment in your economic condition.
So what happens when there is no way of helping you recover and keeping you in your home? If mitigation doesn’t work or can not be considered you are looking at a potential foreclosure. If you are in this situation don’t give up too quick because there are still some options that remain.
Deed-in-Lieu – Deed-in-lieu of foreclosure is when you as the property owner deed your house over to the bank. Basically you hand over your property to your lender. This sounds like an easy out compared to foreclosure but there are some things to consider.
1) A deed-in-lieu effects your credit just like a foreclosure.
2) Mortgage companies don’t want your house. It results in a property on their books and selling properties is not what they are in business to do. Many banks will not accept a deed-in-lieu and suggest you try some other option and will often tell you to do a short sale.
Short Sale – This is what I do in Columbus and Central Ohio. A short sale will eliminate most of your mortgage loan and your bank will charge off the balance with no further obligation from you. Most lenders are willing to accept a short sale instead of going through a lengthy and expensive foreclosure. As previously stated this option is for borrowers whose financial situation demands that they sell their home.
A short sale is a highly technical procedure and requires a huge be filed with your lender. As Columbus Ohio short sales realtors our short sale service makes the process simple for you. We handle the fine details while you simply provide us with the information we need to start the process and then relax knowing your short sale is in good hands. As for your lender they will tell you to find a realtor who does short sales and put your house on the market. We are able to do this for you quickly and put things into motion so that you don’t sit for months with little or no activity.
Below are a few circumstances that will allow for a short sale:
A declining home market – This motive does not take into effect your credit or your financial situation. This is when you are just upside down in your home and owe more than it’s worth. Don’t forget a short sale means you must sell your home. This does not apply if you want to move because of crime in your neighborhood.
The loan is in default or close to it – This is an obvious situation where a bank will do a short sale. There was a time when lenders would not do a short sale if all the payments were current. Mortgage lenders have now realized that in many circumstances it makes sense to do a short sale before the payments are in default.
The Seller has Faced Hard Times – This is a short sale condition where there is a real hardship the home owner is facing. A hardship letter is required in all short sales explaining the reason you are in need of a bank short sale. Sometimes a hardship letter can go over the top. It’s good to know the guidelines for writing a good hardship letter. You should always cite that you seek a short sale so that you won’t have to do a foreclosure. Here are a few common hardships: (Divorce, Illness, Unemployment, Death). Our Columbus Short Sale Package details how to write a good hardship letter.
Assets are something to consider when doing a short sale. Part of the short sale paper work is to fill out a sheet detailing all of your assets. If your lender finds that you have a bunch of money lying around they could deny the short sale because they see that you have funds to get caught up on payments. It is still possible for you to be granted a short sale but they could demand that you to pay back the shortage with a promissory note. This can still become a win win option for homeowners who need to sell their home and has the ability to pay back a reduced amount of their mortgage loan.
Negative Amortization – Some loans that were put in place prior to the housing bubble allowed for negative amortization. This means that each month the amount the borrower pays is not enough to cover the interest on the loan. A lender will consider a short sale in these situations.
Aggressive Secondary Financing – During the housing expansion period some lenders were creating second mortgages for more than the house was worth. When a seller is in this situation it is often a scenario that will get approved for short sale. These types of loans situations get a bit more difficult but can still be considered as a short sale.
The importance of a knowledgeable realtor cannot be overlooked when doing a short sale. Our Central Ohio Short Sale Service and staff is equipped to handle your situation.

Just reviewing our closings for July, everything in the red parts of the portrait is individuals that we are assisting to evade foreclosure. Those are all written approvals.
Today we would love to speak to you about your choices. If you are falling behind on mortgage payments or are looking to hinder foreclose, you have about 4 or five choices in this market.
The first decision is to wait it out. However, the number of short sales and foreclosures are ever-increasing. Therefore, waiting it out is only an option if you can continue to pay your mortgage.
Your next option is a deed in lieu of foreclosure. A deed in lieu of foreclosure will include the identical affect on your credit as a foreclosure. However it will protect you from the risk of the bank coming back and sueing you.
The 3rd option is to go to foreclosure. You stop making your payments and hand the keys over to the bank. The home goes to auction and the bank buys it or else an investor purchases it. After that, you will have 30 to 60 days to get out of your home before the sheriff shows up to remove you.
The final alternative is the short sale. We complete a high volume of short sales in Columbus. Foreclosure will include the most negative effect on your credit in addition to your ability to buy in the next five years. Short sale is typically your smartest choice. Most lawyers would advise you to execute a short sale as your smartest option.

**UPDATE** May 17, 2010 – I just called Sole Vacation Club to schedule a vacation at Dreams Tulum in July and was told that they have halted all reservations and that I need to call the hotel. They referred to the letter sent out concerning the extra fees and would not give any more information. It seems our timeshare has been FROZEN until further notice.
I recently received a letter from TC Servicios Riviera telling me I need to pay $950 by June 30, 2010 for my time share at Dreams Resort in Tulum. I am looking for anyone who can shed some light on what is going on with Sole Vacation Club and Dreams Resort. Apparently the name has been changed to Tulum Vacation Club and there has been some restructuring of the time share. I also understand that they want me to sign a new contract.
- My concerns are what happens to my old contract?
- The new contract is only for 5 years instead of the 20+ I had before?
- Have they begun construction of the timeshare units?
- How do these new fees effect the annual maintenance fees?
Any input anyone can give on Sole Vacation Club or Tulum Vacation Club or Dreams Tulum or TC Servicios Riviera in Quintana Roo would be greatly appreciated. Trying to get someone on the phone is nearly impossible.
NEW INFO I FOUND THANKS TO SOME HELP FROM READERS:
This is the House YOU built, and you are being kicked out!!!

May 9th, 2010
Fellow members,
Sorry that I have not been more active on the site.. The time has come for us to become active in our defense of our contracts with the Sole Vacation Club. Mr. Gilberto Sandretto is clearly trying to dump all the members with the latest scam, a new timeshare company contract and new fees.
Do not sign the new contract. It eliminates all your rights under the legal agreement you have with Sole. The letter from Sandretto (club owner) claims that PROFECO has approved this sidestep that allows him to eliminate the old legal agreements. This is a lie. He has merely applied for and been granted a new case file to create a new timeshare company…nothing more.
In the last week of May, I and several others are meeting with management of the timeshare companies and hotel management in Tulum. We will be accompanied by a representative from US Consulate and hopefully a Profeco exec. We will lay all the cards on the table and see what comes out. We have Mexican Attorneys attending as well.
In the meantime, do not sign the agreement. Send no money. Here is what you can do;
Write the US Consulate Officies in Merida and Playa Del Carmen and complain. They have opened a case file on us and the more names we have, the more weight we have. Here is the address;
This is the US Consulate office in Playa Del Carmen
playausca@gmail.com
Att: Samantha Mason
And also write:
To the Consulate office in Merida at;
meridacons@state.gov
And finally, write to;
Laura Mejía
Department of Conciliation
Services for Foreign Residents PROFECO
extranjeros@profeco.gob.mx
In every letter, describe your circumstances and ask that they attend the meeting with Sole Club management in Tulum on Wednesday, May 26, at 11 AM.
If this meeting is not successful you should consider making as much noise on the internet about the Dreams Tulum hotel as possible on websites that recommend vacation sites, such as;
www.tripadvisor.com
Don’t trash them yet, wait to see what happens in the meeting. I will keep you informed as the scenario progresses. Contact everyone you know that has a timeshare with Sole and forward this information to them.
Were Mad as HELL and we are not going to take it anymore.

RESULTS OF MEETING ON MAY 26 , 2010
Dreams Resort, Tulum
FELLOW MEMBERS
On May 9th I sent you an email stating my understanding of the new contract offered by TC Servicios Riviera, S.A. de C.V. for the creation of Tulum Vacation Club and the dissolution of the Sole Vacation Club. I am writing to give you the information gained in meetings held at the resort last Wednesday, May 26th.
The meetings were held in a room reserved for us by Alejandra Izaguirre in the new convention center at the back of the resort.
Attendees for Sole Vacation Club;
Jim and Penny Moore – members
Tom Holiday – Member
Samantha Mason – US Consulate – Playa del Carmen
Claudia Hurtado Valenzuela – Translator and Internet Marketing Specialist
Augusto Rivero Bolio – Attorney
Attendees for TC Servicos;
Alejandra Izaguirre – Club Administrator
Marcos Jassan Mizrahi – Lawyer
Jorge Aguilar de Alba – Lawyer
Both of;
Müggenburg, Gorches, Peñalosa y Sepúlveda of Mexico City
The seller mentioned in our contracts, Efrain Eliecer Canul Zarate never showed up at the meetings but his lawyers did.
We spent 3-4 hours Wednesday going over all the details in both the contract and the instruction packages. We fought, at first, the notion that our current contracts are not in effect anymore, but that is the reality. Tom and I discussed possible legal avenues with Augusto Rivero, our attorney and Samantha Mason from the consulate. Samantha worked for 4 years in timeshare sales before moving to the US Consulate services.
Our emails to Profeco finally produced a response that basically said that if our meeting did not produce results we should sue in a Mexican Court…basically telling us that Profeco was not going to get involved. We are both tired of the conflict and decided to not start a 3-5 year long suit in a Mexican court that would probably fail. If you want to take it on yourself, go for it. When we asked everyone to get on board and signup with us to hire a lawyer, only 1 customer, other than Tom and I joined up.
It became clear during the meetings that the following is true;
1. SVC is no longer in business as Sole Vacation Club…nor is the parent company.
2. TC Servicios is the only entity that can grant use of the timeshare units at Dreams.
3. The contracts we all signed were not approved by Profeco…that means that they are not enforceable.
4. Mr. Rivero (our attorney) confirmed that the contracts and rules from TC have been registered and approved by Profeco (which means that they are enforceable), and we were told that this is the reason why the contracts cannot be modified.
5. The term of the new contract is 5 years, and will renew automatically until the original term of Sole contract is reached. In our case that was 2032, since we signed for 30 years beginning in 2002 (our lawyer confirmed us that TC is honoring the term of our contract).
6. In accordance with Mexican legislation, TC fixed the premises where the timeshare services are going to be rendered, which give us the certainty that there is premises destined to render the timeshare services. (TC Servicios wording here)
7. TC has selected units in the Garden area where they will provide units for the timeshare owners. They can be adjoining units or single hotel rooms. All have new fixtures and are nicely appointed. Also, the old White buildings near the beach are part of the offering, for an upcharge that has not been determined. See photo page
8. Alejandra is still the administrator for the club and will send you a contract with your specific information included in the variable information. Her email address is now; prearrival@serviciosriviera.com.mx
TC Servicios has made great efforts to process paperwork and approvals through Profeco, so as to be considered a serious, legal company. (Their wording)
I ask that you stop writing to Samantha Mason at the US Consulate in Playa Del Carmen. You guys covered them up in the last two weeks, which did get them to the meeting. They were very supportive, but by attending the meeting, she has done all she can. You can, if you wish, continue to write to Profeco or the US Consulate in Mexico City or in Merida.

Social media marketing is the process of promoting your site or business through
social media channels and it is a powerful strategy that will get you links,
attention and massive amounts of traffic.
There is no other low-cost promotional method out there that will easily give you large numbers of visitors, some of whom may come back to your website again and again.
If you are selling products/services or just publishing content for ad revenue, social media marketing is a potent method that will make your site profitable over time.
Those who ignore the efficacy of social media usually fall into three categories; the ones who don’t know much or anything about social media, the ones who are interested but don’t know how to use it and those who don’t believe in the value that a social media strategy can bring to any site or business.
The Value of Marketing Through Social News Websites
For those who don’t understand or see the value of social media websites, let’s
take a look at the benefits of creating viral
content and effectively promoting them through social media channels.
Developing link baits and successfully getting it popular on various social media websites like Digg and StumbleUpon will lead to multiple benefits for any website:
- Primary and Secondary Traffic. Primary traffic is the large amount of visitors who come directly from social media websites. Secondary traffic is referral traffic from websites which link to and send you visitors, after they come across your content through the social sites.
- High Quality Links. Becoming popular on social news websites like Digg or Reddit will get you a large number of links, some of which may be topically relevant, some not. A good story can realistically acquire a large number of high quality editorial links, most of which cannot be easily bought.
Now let’s translate this into tangible benefits for your website:
1. Links = Better Search Engine Rankings.
When a website receives a large number of natural, permanent links from trusted domains, it develops authority. Search engines trust it. If you optimize your linkbait and website structure properly, you can easily start ranking for competitive keywords, which will in turn bring in search engine visitors.
Do this often enough and your search traffic will undoubtedly increase. In a sense, you are obtaining these quality links through borrowed trust. Many bloggers and webmaster still think that if an article is on the Digg or del.icio.us homepage, then it’s probably worth checking out and referencing through a citation link.
A new website may find it difficult to gain links from a critical mass that is not familiar with it but a trusted social news resource makes it easier for links to come in, because the community and buzz has somewhat ‘certified‘ the value of the site. Note that the actual strength of the article is still of utmost importance for all.
2. Primary + Secondary Traffic = Community/Supporters.
Some people claim that social news websites only send useless traffic, visitors that will often just view a specific webpage and click away. Yes, that’s usually the case. Sites like Digg are notorious for their poor bounce rates: many visitors drop in for the article and then leave after reading it. StumbleUpon is much better in this aspect.
But don’t mistake this with a lack of interest. Your subscriber figures will often take big jump up and then stabilize after a few days. If your entire site is relevant to the general interests of the social media website, there will always be a handful of social users who will start to track your site in order to submit future content.
Detractors also ignore the power of ultra targeted secondary traffic. General sites or blogs in the same niche will link to a story that’s popular on social sites, because it adds value for their readers or users. This is done naturally on a daily basis for many.
While primary traffic usually comes in a larger volume, I would argue that secondary traffic is more valuable. Why? Because links from other websites bring visitors who are very likely to be interested in your content. These citation links demonstrate recognition of your site in the eyes of others. It builds your brand.
Think of the social news site as a platform or a soapbox. As something that gives you a chance to be heard or read, even for a brief moment of a few hours. The people who are drawn to your message will visit your site and recommend it to others.
Four Reasons to Practice Social Media Marketing
Why bother exploring social media as a marketing channel for your website or
business? After all, you could stick to link exchanges, search advertising or
the purchase of banner and editorial ads on relevant sites.
Here are some reasons why you should consider using social media:
- It’s natural. Not only do you get natural links without any discernible pattern, your website is exposed to large groups of people in a spontaneous fashion. This differs from paid advertising which has overt commercial overtones.
- It’s defensible. Once successfully mastered, social communities can be a great source of web traffic on top of any traffic you are already receiving from search engines. While you can’t easily increase your search engine traffic, social media traffic can be very easily controlled through strategic marketing.
- It’s low-cost/high returns. If done by yourself, costs are limited to only time and perhaps the expenses involved in hiring a freelance programmer/designer. The benefits will often exceed the cost. It would take you thousands of dollars to buy many links; social media has the ability to give you that for free.
- It complements other efforts. Social media optimization and marketing is usually community-specific. It doesn’t interfere with any other methods of getting traffic to your website. It can and will fit perfectly with an advertising campaign targeting other websites or search engines.
So How Does Social Media Help Me to Make Money?
It doesn’t. At least not directly. Every site or business that wants to expand and become profitable, needs a core group of supporters who will be willing to make purchases or recommend the site to others. Your site needs to perpetuate itself.
The more supporters you have, the faster word spreads about your site. Social media marketing is an excellent way to get people to come into your site to take a look at at what you have to offer. You will grow when there are a group of loyal visitors ready to always act upon what you have to offer.
Because social media websites can be leveraged for links and better search rankings, they can greatly increase your site’s income potential. For example, you will be able to price ads higher or generate revenue from any paid business models.
Why Bloggers Should Learn How to Use Social Media
There are many
ways to build a popular blog and many methods to promote your website. For
example, you can start leaving comments regularly on many high traffic blogs
in your niche or perhaps, consider guest posting on other bigger blogs.
My marketing strategy for blogs is very simple. I don’t comment actively, hold contests or write guest posts. I’ve never done any of that for any blog I’ve ever set up. Some people might enjoy doing it but its just a little too tedious for me.
What I do instead is strategic. I focus on creating just one excellent blog post, which I will then push through social media sites and email pitches to other bloggers. This is straightforward and I don’t have to run around many blogs putting up my URL and thinking of something insightful to say.
Think about it. Why write 50 guest posts for 50 different blogs when you can easily just write one article and get an equal amount of links and greater traffic through the use of social media? Guest posting builds relationships but I reckon there are many more powerful ways to network with others.
It isn’t just about creating articles and then promoting them on social sites as an afterthought. It’s about putting social media in the center of your marketing strategy, optimizing your site or content and making it an attention magnet.
Social Media and It’s Potential for Your Site: An Example
I recently launched a new blog a months ago and took around 20 hours to create a feature article. I subsequently promoted it on various social websites through my own influencer profiles. I also sent out emails to large sites in the same niche.
The article eventually got to the Digg, del.icio.us and Reddit frontpage and received over 140+ reviews on StumbleUpon. It accumulated well over 800 unique links, including some from very heavily trafficked websites. Some of them alone sent more traffic than the frontpage of del.icio.us.
The article is more than a month old and it is still receiving incoming links. Subscribers are up by over 800% and I received around 12K pageviews everyday for the first month. Bear in mind this is only a one month old site.
While not every article in every niche will receive the same amount of attention or success, this illustrates the great potential of social media. I’ve become a firm believer in having a solid social media strategy for every website I develop. It is important for success on every level, even for sites that are already popular.
Fundamentals of Social Media Marketing: An Article Series
Social media marketing is not difficult at all. It is something every one can
do with some effort and knowledge. It isn’t some secret art form that only experts
can master. Unlike other skills, social media has a remarkably low
barrier of entry. Everyone is invited to the party. No one
is excluded.
I know how social media works. I know what type of content/bait works for different websites. I know what type of marketing strategy to adopt for a high possibility of success. This knowledge is something you can acquire yourself too.
Now that I’ve illustrated the value of social media, a step by step introduction to social media websites and the appropriate marketing strategies to adopt is in order. I plan to start an article series on DIY social media marketing, to teach absolute beginners and bloggers/webmasters what they need to do for social media success.
Some of the advanced social media strategies I have in mind might not be appropriate for a large audience as they can be extremely intricate; unless you’re an active user of the site, it probably isn’t something you’ll appreciate reading about.
I might consider setting up some private newsletters or forums for these advanced tactics, so those who are serious about learning about them can opt-in and we can discuss them away from the public arena. More details later on.
I’m quite sure most of you will find this article series useful so if you have
any specific topics you want to see addressed, feel free to drop your query
in the comments.

LinkedIn is a service site for professional networking and is probably the most accessible website to propel business in a short span of time! Founded in December 2002 by REED Hoffman and current LinkedIn CEO, Jeff Weiner, it is mainly used for professional networking. In the networking site there are thousands of LinkedIn Groups which allow users to establish new business relationships by joining alumni, industry, professional and other relevant groups. LinkedIn groups can be created in any subjects and by any member of LinkedIn. Some groups are specialized groups dealing with a narrow domain or industry whereas others are very broad and generic in nature.
LinkedIn Groups are composed of members whose profile is assessed and sorted. Initially, LinkedIn only had the very basic features enabling users to create groups and invite people to join. Those users joining groups were able to show what groups they belong to on their profiles to get some extra visibility to the groups. Now the groups have become a thriving and breathing part of the online community. Since LinkedIn members are gathered by professional backgrounds and business ventures it is easier for them to form or find small or broad business groups.
Here Is The Linkedin Groups Marketing Blueprint
A colleague of mine Larry Beacham has put together a resource that allows him to pull up to 30 leads a day out of Linkedin alone and it cost his zero dollars to do it.
Larry is an avid user on the Linkedin Social Network and this is his strategy. What I am going to do is give you the high points and then you will have the ability to gain full access to the recorded webinar presentation Larry did for out marketing group.
Chapter 1 Understanding Linkedin
Linkedin is not your normal social network. Linkedin attracts the top people in business. Because of this there is a certain social etiquette that you need to follow. This isn’t a MySpace or a FaceBook. The Linkedin blueprint covers how to interact in detail to make sure you stay out of trouble.
Chapter 2 Your Profile
No explanation here. The book covers what to do.
Chapter 3 Getting Started
This is where Larry begins to assemble his marketing strategy. He gives you complete guidelines on what to do and what not to do. This part of the training will get you off and running in the right direction.
Chapter 4 Choosing The Right Target Audience
This is where the Blueprint begins to guide you through finding the right kind of people and how to get them to contact “YOU” instead of you trying to hunt them down. Imagine having laser targeted leads seeing your business opportunity everyday. Larry goes into a fishing story and talks about using the right kind of bait to catch the right kind of fish. I see so many people doing this wrong each and every day. The Linkedin Blueprint dives deep into the psychology of attracting your leads to you. This is the mastery in this course.
Chapter 5 The Elements Of A Lead Generating Article
When operating in Linkedin Groups and marketing you will want to post informative articles. The Linkedin Blueprint goes into detail on the different parts of the article and how it should be structured to make people click like crazy for more information. Chapter 4 covers attracting the right kind of leads and Chapter 5 details the conversion part of the blueprint.
Chapter 6 The Power Of Comments
It’s not just any old comment that will do. There is an art to this and the Linkedin Blueprint explains how and when to do this for maximum results.
Chapter 7 Engaging Your New Connection
Once you have your fish and it biting hard you need to begin to reel it in. The blueprint shows how Larry does this every day to land the hunk’n’ chunk’n BIG Fish! This is the ingredient that drives your business. Leads are good but quality leads are better and landing quality leads is great. You will find out how in this chapter.
Chapter 8 Adding Value Outside Of Linkedin
There is more to the big picture than just grabbing leads. What do you do with them to nurture them? There are a thousand ways to do this but Larry will inspire you with a few ideas. This is an entire training all of it’s own and not detailed in the Linkedin Group Blueprint but will certainly open the doors to a greater understanding of the big picture when it comes to online marketing.
Chapter 9 Tying It All Together
This is where the blueprint combines all the components together into on lead explosive system. Once in place you will have the Top Quality online leads delivered to you day after day.
I highly recommend Larry’s training on Linkedin Marketing. This is the first resource I have ever seen that tells you "HOW" to do it. There are lots of courses and e-books that tell what buy Larry breaks everything down and shows you exactly how to do it. To hear the Live Recorded Webinar just fill in the form below. Here it directly from Larry himself as he explains his Linkedin Lead Generation Blueprint.

TVI Express also called Travel Ventures International is raising concern among people in the network marketing industry. This latest and greatest U.S. launch offers a taboo pay plan where you only pay once and continue to make money over and over again. It sounds like a dream come true but will it pass the test of U.S. authorities?
TVI Express is a London based company that runs a travel club where members are rewarded with discount vacations and other travel discounts on services such as airfare and rental cars. All that is necessary to join the club is a onetime fee of $250 and if you bring other people into the club you can earn up to $15,000 time and time again.
The matrix takes some time to figure out but basically you complete several travel boards by your efforts and the efforts of people above and below you. Once you complete a full cycle you earn $15,000 and are placed back inside the matrix to build again. When your followers complete their cycle they in turn get placed under you again and the whole thing starts over.
TVI is a classic example of whoever gets in first makes the most money and the people who come in last are left holding an empty bag. Several TVI Express reps have called me and tried to convince me to join them. They were even bold enough to say that if I got in quick I could make some money before it gets shut down. I’m sorry but I steer wide of anything that even appears fraudulent. I personally know someone who has already made $10,000 with TVI but he is on the verge of destroying his credibility if he continues. It simply is not mathematically possible for everyone to make money in TVI Express.
TVI does a great job making everything look legit but don’t be fooled. They strategically place pictures and quotes of prominent people such as Warren Buffet on their web site. One new recruit even believed Warren Buffet was in TVI. I wonder was he told this or did he just think Warren Buffet was in TVI because he saw a picture of him on the web site with the following quote? “The Best Investment I ever made…” You will also see Bill Clinton, Robert Kiyosaki and Donald Trump seemingly promoting TVI Express.
Another red flag is TVI Express does not accept credit cards. You have to wire the money overseas to their bank account. Come on people really? Don’t be so desperate for money that you will believe whatever you’re told. What if you decided you didn’t want to be a travel member after you wire over $250? What if you don’t get what is promised to you? Do you have any recourse? Can you get your money back? TVI Express is definitely raising some eyebrows.
There is no such thing as easy money. Earning good money takes hard work. It’s sort of a law of nature. There are plenty of good and legitimate companies out there. Use caution when trying to make a quick buck because what if it is you left with the empty pockets.
