Announcement 2 - Richest Referral Program across the Blogosphere!

Here’s the big announcement!  We are kicking off the richest referral program across the blogosphere for Pro Bloggers, Profitable Bloggers, even Amateur bloggers that like to make a little extra money from their blog.

In our industry, most companies that pay bloggers to blog or sponsor bloggers to blog, pay nothing for referrals.  A big $Zer0 Dollars!

A few might offer you a few bucks if you refer a new blogger into their system.

What good does it do a blogger to refer another blogger into these Systems???

In other systems, this just means more competition for the blogger that referred someone.  That means less work, less money!

Now, I like many of you have happily referred lots of bloggers to these systems.  I’m not that greedy that I wouldn’t share, but the truth is, it hurts me, it hurts all of us when we do this.  It hurts us right in the PayPal Card!

A Solution to Help Bloggers Truly Profit from their Referrals

Many of us have been talking about this problem for close to 2 years now.  Well, the LinkyLoveArmy has a solution to this problem and its big!

Other Systems

Lets say one of those other sites offers you $10, if you refer someone.  The new bloggers signs up, they start writing articles and taking jobs and they make $200 the first month.  They get better and they speed up and they make $2000 in the next 5 months.  By the end of the year, they make a total of $6,000.  You got $10, they got $6000 for your referral and the company got a commission of 35-100%.

That doesn’t seem very fair!

Our System in Action (Simple Version)

We will pay you a commission based on how much that person earns when they blog with us.  We are taking 20% of our topline commission margin and giving it back to our bloggers! 

Here’s how the model above would work for you:

Now, I double majored in Accounting and Finance and picked up my Master’s focusing on International Finance.  But it doesn’t take any finance education to understand that $81 is better than $10!

Let’s assume that the $6,000 was earned from writing 600 articles at an average of $10 each.

Our System Cruising at 30 Miles an Hour

But that’s just 3 people! 

That assumes that you have only referred 1 person directly yourself and that person only referred 1 person and that person only referred one person!

We Pro Bloggers can do better than that ~ We’ve got a Blogosphere to conquer Here!

Our System Cruising at 55 Miles Per Hour

Let’s work with the law of 5’s just to take a look at this more closely.  Let’s assume that you refer 5 people, and each of those people on average refers 5 people into our system(5×5 = 25).  Those 25 each refer 5 more (5 x 25 = 125).  Total 5 + 25 +125 = 155 

Let’s consider that you are such a good blogger that you show your direct referrals how to blog better and more effectively and that they earn $5,000 each the first year.  Let’s also assume that they pass on some of that knowledge to their referrals, who earn $4,000 the first year.  The last group is just getting into the swing of things and earns $2,500.

For you Big Thinkers Out There . . .

How many bloggers do you think are out there on the internet?

How many do you know?

Is it in your best interest to recruit people with us at the LLA?

Is it in your best interest to help those people you recruit?

Will you stop at $244 or $5,950 or will you shoot for $100,000?  (That’s about 2650 bloggers total with the assumptions above!)

We hope that as you ask yourself those questions, you see some benefit and incentive to work with us.  We are making you our partners.  We are the LinkyLoveArmy and this is how we show you the Love!  With a portion of our profits, we are in this together.  Our success at the LLA is tied to your success as bloggers.  We are striving to make a better blogosphere in many many areas.  With that said, here are some of our rules:

1. Referral commissions will be paid every 30 days, net 30 after the close of the month in which they were earned.
2. To be eligible to receive referral fees, you must be an active blogger in our network yourself.  You can’t refer a bunch of people and do nothing!
3. An active blogger in our network will be defined as a blogger that completes 5 assignments per month or 1 assignment per blog whichever number is more.
4. If in a future month after a blogger has been active for at least 6 months straight, a blogger becomes inactive and doesn’t meet number 3, their referral earnings will decrease for that month by 50%.
5. If in the next month the blogger is inactive again, their earnings will decrease to $0.
6. Bloggers can become active again, by meeting the requirements for number 3.
1. The first month of activity after being inactive, will set their referral earnings rate at 50%.
2. The second month of activity after being inactive, will set their referral earnings rate at 75%.
3. The third month of activity after being inactive, will set their referral earnings back to 100%.
4. If they become inactive again within 3 months, their earnings will drop to $0 in the first month of inactivity and they will start the process over again.
7. You will not earn referral commissions off of your referrals referral commissions.  Commissions are only paid from the top line commissions the LLA earns from the work performed by bloggers.
8. This referral program will run for one year and may renew at the discretion of the LinkyLoveArmy.
9. We reserve the right to change the terms of this program at any time.
10. Anyone found to be cheating this program, our violating other LinkyLoveArmy terms of service and policies, may be removed from the LinkyLoveArmy, have their earnings voided, have their referral commissions voided and/or have their LinkyLove links turned into nofollow links.
1. Cheating can include but may not be limited to
1. writing articles in less than fluid English
2. writing articles with programs or software that generate gibberish or generate articles at all
3. submitting articles that are duplicate content
4. submitting articles and deleting them after submission
5. staring cross eyed at one legged dogs
6. inciting religious wars or wars of any kind
7. backdating articles after the month ends to meet the minimum requirements
11. If you earn more than $100,000 in commissions through the LinkyLoveArmy, you may be called upon to perform interviews with the Press.  We will compensate you for your travel expenses if travel is required.
12. If you earn more than $500,000 in commissions through the LinkyLoveArmy, you may be called upon to endorse the LinkyLoveArmy in a Super Bowl advertisement on television.
13. If you earn more than $1,000,000 in commission through the LinkyLoveArmy, you may be called upon to perform interviews with the Press, endorse the LinkyLoveArmy in a Superbowl advertisement on television and send the founder of the LinkyLoveArmy 1lb of bear claws from River Street Sweets in Savannah, Ga every year for 5 years on December 1.
14. All LinkyLoveArmy members that earn money through the referral program will agree to allow the LinkyLoveArmy to promote the program and our company with examples of your earnings and success publicly in any forum or medium we choose. 

* I do not know any company that actually pays this much.  I was just trying to be nice to the other companies.  I like them a lot. 

**Bloggers referred directly by you!

***Referred by bloggers that you directly referred ~ Tier 1

   I get it. OK, now, I want to know how you want me to refer. Do I call or write my prospect which I’ve already done, come to think of it. Do I tell this prospect of LinkyLove? If he/she says yes, do I send you an email to advise? How do I proceed so that you know this person came from me and how do I keep track?

   Walk me through it, will you? I’m kinda stupid.

   Thanks for asking, I haven’t slept in 48 hours.
