Green Cash From Green Gas

We live in an age where times are changing very quickly. The concept of “going green” has taken a new priority in every aspect of industry and lifestyle. The targeting of internet marketing strategies to this new wave of industry has been powerful and yet still in it’s infancy. With the world now focusing on terms such as “carbon footprint”, “eco-friendly”, “auto emissions”, “fuel efficiency”, “fuel economy”, “alternate fuels”, etc., new businesses and business opportunities are rising up to meet the challenge. Finding the right home based business opportunity so a person can work from home, or make money online, can sometimes prove to be challenging. Some people seek home business opportunities through online marketing sources, others through word of mouth. The biggest challenge for many is identifying an opportunity that’s credible; that will put money in their pocket right away; and not cost a huge dollar up front to get started in. Once the right business opportunity is found, scores of individuals become hungry for the latest internet marketing strategies, and do so while embracing the learning curve that goes along with starting a new home based business venture.

So what kind of eco-friendly opportunity would be so attractive, would show so much potential, it would actually make a person want to leave a corporate America position? Now let’s be clear about this. Not just leave a corporate America position, but leave from a sector of corporate America that’s use to reviewing and assessing other people’s business plans and business proposals.

Recently, through professional networking on MySpace.com, I had the opportunity to meet and get to know, such a person, Jill Cobb from the State of California. During the course of our written and phone discussions, I began to learn in greater detail her incredible story. The following is an excerpt from an interview with this incredible individual.

Jill perhaps you could begin by telling us a bit about who you are, your background, and what you’re doing now?

I’ve been active in the financial services industry for 30 years in banking, real estate and as a Certified Financial Planner. A friend told me I should try a product she was selling called the Bio Petro Improver, and honestly, to support my friend’s business, I gave it a try. Wow, was I surprised!! After using it for 2 fill ups, my gas mileage improved 20 percent!! With the ever rising HIGH price of gas…and increasing toxic emissions in our air, I decided to become an Area Manager and Distributor for Bio Petro Improver. The response has been so exciting, I have scaled back my financial business, and now I’m focusing most of my time helping others improve their gas mileage as well as their cash flow with this product!

It’s so difficult for families these days to live comfortably on a budget. I feel I can impact the lives of so many people who are struggling to make ends meet. A 20-30 percent reduction in gas expenses is a HUGE savings!! So many households have 1 or 2 commuters that travel hundreds of miles per week! They can use their savings on fuel costs for groceries, clothing and necessary home expenses. For anyone who drives 50 miles each way to work they could save over $900 USD per year when the gas prices at the pump are around $3.00 per gallon!! Think about the savings when gas prices are higher…like they are in Canada and many other countries!!!

As a Baby Boomer, I’m wanting to retire early … thanks to BPI, Worldwide!! I want to spend more time with my 2 grand kids Emily and Ryan, and take them on some amazing vacations!! They are 10 and 6 and I’m looking forward to showing them some of the most wonderful historical locations in the world.

As we talked, and when you eventually mailed me material about your business, I became really excited about the potential for this business especially here in North America. Perhaps you could explain a little bit about the product and exactly what it does? How would it benefit a person such as myself financially, and how would it benefit the world I live in?

BPI, Worldwide is a great home based business opportunity, or business opportunity period! It’s also a FUN business. Everyone wants to save money on gas and everyone who tries it thinks I am a HERO!! It’s allowed me to be able to travel and visit friends and family that I haven’t seen in years!!

The product is all natural, biodegradable and it’s been proven to increase gas mileage as well as reduce toxic emissions!

The fuel enhancer significantly impacts the lives of everyone-worldwide that uses an internal combustion engine!! That includes trucks, cars, buses, planes, boats, lawnmowers, RVs, dune buggies, motorcycles, snow mobiles, water craft… and on and on..!!

A consumer can save from 15-30 percent on the money they currently spend on gas. Fuel costs have become a major expense for most of us, so this will benefit our cash flow IMMEDIATELY!

So, the benefits are really significant. We can all save at the tank, improve harmful emissions, and, for those interested in a business opportunity, they can become a Distributor for BPI Worldwide and create a significant residual income!!!

The retail cost of a 50 gram jar of Bio Petro Improver is $25 US. That treats approximately 200 gallons of gas or diesel fuel. A consumer only uses 1 teaspoon (or 2 Bio Pills) for every 15 U.S. gallon gas tank or 10 U.S. gallon diesel tank.

It’s my understanding this product has met with some opposition from the oil industry. As a result when it comes to testing this product, it’s really been put through “all the hoops” so to speak. What kind of testing has been done, that you’re aware of, and what results came from those tests?

First off, you’re right! There was some opposition to this product.

BPI was first introduced to US Consumers in the 2006 as a network marketing business opportunity. Over $20 million dollars of product was sold in a very few months. The excitement was tremendous. This got the immediate attention of the Texas oil industry. There were several offers to buy BPI, but all offers were rejected. The founders of the BPI set up this company specifically as a networking program so anyone willing to share this program with others could create substantial residual income.

Oil companies approached the Texas authorities alleging the Bio Product didn’t work and BPI Worldwide was nothing less than a scam. The entire company was temporarily shut down pending an investigation of the product, and while the course of the investigation was underway all the personal and business assets of the founders were seized.

After a lengthy court ordeal, the Texas Court system Ordered an independent Environmental Protection Agency recognized testing lab evaluate Bio Petro Improver to determine its effectiveness. The Wallace Lab used the strictest EPA, HFET (Highway Fuel Economy Test) and CARB (California Air Resource Board) assessment protocols. They determined that “this product causes a real improvement in fuel economy and a reduction in emissions.”

The fuel enhancer proved to be a safe, effective product. The lawsuit was dismissed and BPI, Worldwide re-launched in June 2007!! Since that time, there have been numerous independent lab tests which have also verified the high quality performance of this product.

I’m not sure what the current fuel prices are in California, but here in Canada, we’re on the metric system and we buy our fuel by the litre, not by the gallon. There are approximately 3.7855 litres to an American gallon and we are paying $1.189 per litre for regular grade fuel (we are being told that price will climb to $1.509 per litre by July 2008). Today we are paying just over $4.50 U.S.D. for the equivalent of an American gallon. You’re business is in the process of soon coming into Canada, and the potential financial savings for people if they use your product is staggering. Right now, a 20% savings in fuel would mean reducing the cost of our fuel to approximately $.9512 a litre. That’s an immediate savings of $.2378 per litre of fuel, or $13.50 for every equal amount of 15 U.S. gallons of fuel. Incredible! What is the growth potential for your business, and at this time, is this only available in the United States?

Recently, BPI Worldwide has opened in Mexico as a business program. A Canada “Grand Opening” is soon to occur. The Bio Petro Improver is NOW available for purchase world wide, and people can find access to the product through the website www.4MaxMPG.com .

In anticipation of expanding into Canada as well as 192 other countries, BPI has enhanced the website to show many flags at the top right of the site. Anyone can click on their country’s flag and see a Bio Petro video and all the company and product information in their native language! It’s available for anyone with internet access to research our company, review the testing results as well as the Binary Compensation Plan.

It is my goal to find some new, fun business partners who see how powerful this Company and this Product is. With our international growth, I am ready to visit Mexico, Canada, Great Britain, Australia, France, Italy, etc with my Business Buddies to share this program and be an International HERO!!

This really has the ability to be a great home based business opportunity for people to get involved in. If people wanted to contact you to find out where they can buy this product or how they can get involved in this as a business, is there a web site they should go to, or another way they could contact you?

The growth potential of this business is staggering!!

All the citizens of Our Planet desperately need a superior, proven, inexpensive “green” product that can improve their gas mileage.

We all desperately need and want to improve the air we breathe and preserve our atmosphere for future generations.

Individuals and businesses worldwide are begging for products they can use to Save Our Planet.

The Bio Petro Improver provides us the product and the business program to impact our environment and our financial well being.

People who may have questions or want more information about this incredible product and opportunity can always contact me at www.4MaxMPG.com or jill@4maxmpg.com If I don’t have the answers, I will get the information!! Together, we can spread the word about this fabulous gas enhancer and create a substantial residual income!!

Jill Cobb is an exciting individual to get to know. She is a glowing example of a true home based entrepreneur, but more important she is a quality person.

Great home based business opportunities, and small business opportunities do abound for people who want to find them. These are exciting days for “Green” focused products which provide real cost savings for people in the process.

Grab hold of the excellence life has to offer.

Increasing Link Popularity

With the economy woes of the United States now plummeting into a recessionary position, many home based internet business entrepreneurs are paying close attention to the ways and means of making money online, so as to keep their business in the forefront of their customer’s eye. The good news is, that while the United States economy is slow, it’s neighbor to the north, Canada, is experiencing an incredible boom, economically speaking. Several aspects of the Canadian economy have been impacted by the U.S. slowdown, but where one sector slows down, the hot demand in other Canadian industrial sectors continues to gobble up workers faster than they are being displaced. Canada’s challenge is a drastic shortage of workers. For those wanting to make money online, the reality is, where one market may be going through a downturn, there are always those other markets which are doing well. The beauty of the an internet business opportunity is, your customer base is global, not restricted geographically to your immediate locality, unless you of course choose to limit yourself in such a way. Let me give you an example of the typical internet consumer. I am a Canadian, and 60 percent of my purchases are made online to companies that are located outside of Canada, companies that are well outside my economic, as well as geographic region.

Internet marketing when done correctly, provides a blanket which helps businesses ride out the gut wrenching twists and turns of economic shifts. There will be noticeable cycles in internet marketing, but usually, the causes and effects related to those cycles are more directly connected to your marketing plan, advertising campaign, website optimization, and product selection procedures.

Today’s feature article is speaking to a key area of importance in helping to optimize your website in the eyes of search engines. The article pertains to increasing your website’s link popularity. For some time search engines have looked closely at the number and quality of reciprocal links on websites. A reciprocal link is a link on your page which points to another page, which in turn has a link that points back to your page. While this is a highly effective way to increase your popularity in the eyes of search engines, it’s a process that must be done right, or it can work against you. Take a few minutes and enjoy this weeks feature article “Increasing Link Popularity”.


SEO Software - Static Page Builder


===================================================
Increasing Link Popularity
===================================================




Search engines are the gateway to the Internet; they are the first tool that potential customers use to find the products and services they need. This is why link popularity is so imperative. If the customers do not find your website, you have no possibilities of making any sales.

You're probably wondering what the blazes is popular about a link! Well, in a word - plenty! Link popularity refers to the ranking assigned to your website by the search engines, and it determines the ranking your page gets when keywords are entered into a search engine. So, you're probably wondering, how do I make my link popular?

Search engines are discretionary, giving status and ranking to sites that have links to their pages from related, quality sites. It's a simple formula, but a very important one. Google created the system, and now virtually all the most popular search engines employ it to rank your web pages in their indexes.

The more commonly used your keyword is, the harder it will be to achieve link popularity, but without achieving this step, it is almost certain your site will never rank highly on any search engine. But don't be discouraged; there are tried and true ways of achieving link popularity using the most competitive keywords.


There are a few things you should be aware of. The first is that just linking up with a large number of other websites will not achieve link popularity. In fact, it may have quite the opposite effect. This is particularly true when pertaining to websites that are nothing more than "link farms" - pages containing line after line of indiscriminate links. Search engines may aggressively discriminate against your website if you are associated with a link farm, so steer clear of them!

The next thing to bear in mind is the quality of the site you are linking to. Never link to a page you have reservations about your visitors seeing. The last thing you want your website to appear as is indiscriminate and cheap. Linking to sites of poor quality will only lessen your link popularity, if not completely destroy it.

So let's get to what you need to do to achieve supreme link popularity and improve your rankings to stellar status on all the popular search engines.

The first step, and the fastest way to get your foot in the door, is to get a listing in a popular directory, such as Open Directory Project and Yahoo. If your site is business-related, you will want to be listed on Yahoo, and despite the fact that it will cost you around $300 a year, it will be money well spent. If your site is non-commercial, the listing will be free, but it will take time and follow-up to actually get it listed. Open Directory is gives you a free listing whether you are business-related or non-commercial, but be prepared to make a lot of follow-up inquiries before you see your site listed.




You are aiming to get listed in the highest level of appropriate category, and this just takes some common sense. For example, if your company ships Alpaca wool from an Alpaca farm located in the middle of Nowhere, Tiny State, do NOT submit your listing to "Retailers from Nowhere, Tiny State." BIG MISTAKE! All you have to do is look a little deeper - and submit your listing to the "Fine Alpaca Wool" category. You will not only associate yourself with culture and quality, but you will be listed in a national category.

The next step after you have attained directory listings is to locate other quality sites that will increase your link popularity. Try to find sites that are in some way related to yours, so not only will your link popularity increase, but your customer base may also be expanded. You want to avoid your competitors and look for sites that are useful to your site's visitors. Let's look at the Alpaca Wool site example. Linking up to a site that sells knitting supplies would be helpful to your visitors, and the chances of the knitting supply site wanting to link up to your site are
also greater. By linking to a related site that will be relevant to your website's traffic, you are increasing both of your site's business prospects - and both of your sites' link popularity.

Not all sites want to link to other sites, so you will have to do some research when you are looking for possible linking partners. Google is an excellent starting place for your search. Make sure you enter keywords that you think quality customers will also enter to find your own site.
Remember, your criteria are quality, highly ranked, non-competing websites that have a links or resources page. Go to these sites and objectively assess them. Look at the quality of the product, the graphics, and the ease of use. Then check out the other sites they are linked to, and determine if your own site would fit in with the crowd.

When you decide you have found a good prospect, you must set out to woo them. The first thing to do is to add a link on your own links page to their site. This is an essential first step; it shows good faith, and ups your chances significantly of their reciprocity. After you have added their link, you must contact the webmaster of their site. Since this is almost always done by email, you want to make sure it is immediately clear that your message is not junk mail. This requires that you tell them right off the bat that you have added a link to their page on your site. A hook like this almost always insures the reader will read on.


Constant Contact Try it Free



Next, be sure to be flattering and let them know how much you appreciate their website. Make sure you emphasize that you have actually visited their site, and that their site is not just a random pick. Give them the address of your links page, and ask them to check out the link for
themselves. It's a good idea to mention that they will not only benefit from the increased traffic your website will direct their way, but you will also increase their link popularity. Briefly, explain why link popularity is so essential, but do this in a sentence or two so you don't sound like a professor! Finally, tell them you would greatly appreciate if they would reciprocally add a link on their own links page to your website.

Go through this process with as many appropriate sites as you can find, bearing in mind the criteria of quality and non-competitiveness. After you have emailed all relevant sites, be sure to check these website frequently to see if they have added a link to your page. Give it about a month, and if no link appears, try another charming email. Then give it another month, and if your site is still absent from their links page, it's time to remove their link from your own links page. The only time you want to pursue a link further than this is if you believe a site is crucial
to your link popularity and your business needs. Just remember to keep all your communications complimentary and cordial.

Then set up a schedule to check your ranking in search engines frequently to see if your link popularity has improved. This is not achievable in the blink of an eye. It will take some time and a good deal of work. There is no way around the labor-intensive quality of improving your
link popularity, which is why search engines regard it with such importance.

By the way - make sure you have a beautiful, streamlined site or you will never persuade anyone to link up to you. Be prepared to keep plugging away at this process, as long as it takes, until you achieve link popularity stardom!

Grab hold of the excellence life has to offer.
