Newspaper Ads

Place ads in your local penny-savers and newspapers. And why not expand your range and your downline with state and national papers? Choose a high-tax area and place ads there for the best responses. Stay local to create and maintain the best personal contacts. Or do both! Some of the most powerful and lucrative downlines have been built with ads in this way! (Do note that if you are placing ads outside your area, you should be sure to have a good low-cost phone service!)

Target your ads to smokers. Your ads can be very simple. For example, you can use something like these:

"Smokers: save on cigarettes! From only $9.95 per carton. Call for information: xxx-xxxx."

"Save big on your choice of cigarettes! Call: xxx-xxxx."

"CIGARETTES: Save on your choice. From only $9.95 per carton! www.yourOTsite or call xxx-xxxx."

"Cigarettes delivered to your door! All brands! From only $9.95 per carton! www.yourOTsite or call xxx-xxxx."

"Cigarettes: your low-cost source! Save today: call xxx xxx-xxxx."

"Cigarettes from only $9.95 per carton. Choose your brand and save. Income opportunity too! Call: xxx-xxxx."

You can also target network marketers to build a network of Referring Customers in your downline with ads in business opportunity sections:
"CIGARETTES are the Ultimate Consumable Product! Huge Savings mean a Huge Network Marketing Opportunity! Call: xxx-xxxx."
"Refer smokers to big savings and make a Good Income. xxx xxx-xxxx or www.yourOTsite"

Newspaper Ad Resources:

They affix safely to and enhance the appearance of automobiles and trucks while promoting your business. If your vehicle has non-magnetic fiberglass or plastic doors, this is the answer. They can also be displayed in the office, on doors, windows, filing cabinets etc. They are available here.

Communications: Phone and Fax Services

Building your OrderSmokesDirect downline and keeping in touch with your members can put new burdens on your telephone - and your ability to pay the bill! Here are some good resources to help.

Internet Voice and Fax Services:

UReach.com   Free
Offers a free toll-free phone number for voice mail, fax reception, and more. A limited amount of toll-free time per month is free. More time may be purchased for a reasonable fee. This service seems to work very well. You can check and hear your messages on the Net too, and that saves burning your free time by calling the number for messages.

OneBox.com   Free
Offers a free local phone number in many areas for voice mail and fax, plus you get a new email address and more. Free, unlimited time.

Jfax   Free and Fee-based
Get all your messages in one place: Voice mail, faxes, and email all turn up neatly in your email inbox. You can get a new phone number in almost any major city around the world. Toll-free numbers are available too. I've been using this reliable, well-established service for some time now, and it is very good. It's especially good for travelers with notebook computers.

Efax   Free
Get a free fax number and access your faxes from the Net.

DialPad.com   Free
Make Calls to Any USA telephone.
From the Dialpad Web site: "Free Phone Service for Everyone! You can make free phone calls from your web browser to any telephone in the US. Now, you don't have to disconnect from the Internet to make a phone call. Just come to dialpad.com and make free unlimited long distance calls. You don't have to download and install anything. Just come to dialpad.com . With its Java/Web technology, everything is automated."
This service is likely to be very sensitive to the quality of your connection and the amount of traffic on the Web at the time you are calling. At high traffic times your calls may be noisy or break up. But this service is definitely worth a try. It could be a real boon to members with far-flung downlines and for those running ads in distant areas.

I-Net Telephony
You can get more reliable service than Dialpad with these services and still save a bundle. Did you know that today's VoIP Technology makes it possible for you to place calls all over the world from the Internet for pennies on the dollar? Click here and learn about the latest possibilities, how to save big time, and even make FREE calls!

Saving on Voice Calls:
Good Rates for Telephones, Cellular, Paging, Calling Cards, International Calls

Dial-Arounds   
There are a whole host of these plans that can reduce your Long Distance costs. I have sometimes used 1010220. Just precede your dialed number with the dial-around number and you will usually save. 1010220, if I remember rightly charges 99 cents for the first 20 minutes and 10 per minute afterward, good for calls around 20 minutes to 1/2 hour. There are others out there. Check them out.

CogniDial is a good low cost, high quality Dial-Around Service that also offers excellent International rates. And it works from Canada as well as the USA . Get a complete listing of rates here.

Lots of Low Cost Phone Services:

My own Nativeblend.Net Communications Page offers almost any kind of service you might need. Each one is high quality and, usually, at great savings over what you might be using now. If you use the Phone or the Net, do check it out now!

Best Phone Rates SEARCH ENGINE:
Cognigen's Best Rates Search Engine is a great tool: find the best phone rates for your area and your needs. There is also a vast array of moneysaving communications plans available: Long Distance, Calling Cards, Callback, and much more, including quality, low-cost Internet access. This one pays me a commission if you use them. It has an affiliate program that you can join too!

Don't Miss Calls While Online. These items can help:

 CallWave
Free: Virtual phone lines are made possible by the free software, which occupies a small window on the user's computer screen while they are online. The CallWave window displays incoming calls, delivers messages, and saves them for later. By making it possible to surf the Internet without missing important calls, CallWave becomes a desirable companion to users while they are online.

Internet Call Manager   Fee and software-based service for web surfers who worry "Am I missing any calls while I'm doing this?" With Call Manager, you won't miss important calls when you are online!

Whoisit   This service is free with optional add-ons at moderated cost. It monitors your phone line while you're connected to the Internet and lets you handle incoming calls real-time. How Does it Work? Each time a call comes in, a pop-up window appears on your computer screen, letting you know someone is calling. With a single click of the mouse, you can see the name, number, city and state of the person who's calling. Then you can manage the call using Whoisit?'s call control options, some free and some at a small cost.

Books:

BOOKS!! Remember them? Don't forget them! They can still be one of the best resources anywhere!
Visit my Multimedia Bookstore and find what you need.

Special search engines on my bookstore pages let you find the best price and delivery on just about anything.
Two sections, especially, - the Native American area and the Business and Money area - may be of special interest to our members. I searched around pretty hard to find the best books that would be relevant to our interests. Check it out.

Let me know if you come up with other good resources so I can add them to this page.

Please be a Good Sponsor to the members you enroll. Pass these resources on to them. Teach them all that you know, share resources and understanding, and teach them to be good sponsors too. If you do this, your downline will grow very fast and your monthly income may astound you.
