There wasn’t a great deal of information on the ICR Services (also known as National Credit Repair Services) opportunity aside from several review sites including a site called “Rip Off Report.” We could not find an actual website for the company which significantly limited our available information.

After conducting a search of National Credit Repair Services, we did find an article on the Federal Trade Commission website that listed ICR Services as one of the defendants in a lawsuit that the FTC brought against six “related defendants” citing that they engaged in “deceptive practices that violate both the FTC Act and the Credit Repair Organizations Act.”

Who They Are

ICR Services in a company that offers credit repair services. They are based in Livonia, Michigan. Apparently, they also go under the name National Credit Repair Services.

What They Do

ICR Services helps people repair their credit. The clients purchase the service from an ICR Services representative and become a client of ICR Services. At that point, ICR Services begins taking steps to repair the client’s credit. It apparently is a joint effort and there are instructions in the papers that are signed when the client purchases the service. There is also a customer service number if the client has any questions regarding the service or what they need to do during the process that ICR Services does while repairing their credit.

How You Make Money

From what we can tell, the way that you make money through ICR Services is that you become an independent representative to “sell” the service to people who wish to repair their credit. The customer is then referred to the ICR Services company and at that time they take the customer through the credit repair process.

What We’ve Heard

The information that we found on ICR Services was less than glowing. It may be a good opportunity, we did not see much negative feedback on the income opportunity itself, but the amount of negative client feedback on ICR Services was enough to raise a red flag. Some of the problems seemed to be with the amount of training that a representative for ICR Services receives before they begin taking people’s money.

In one such feedback, an ICR Services representative stated that she had heard of an “untrained or misinformed rep giving wrong instructions to a client.” This would raise the question of just how much training does a representative for ICR Services receive before they are allowed to begin selling the product and interacting with clients?

Before you join any company make sure you so a google search for company name + scam. For example in this case ICR Services Scam. What will happen is all the dirty laundry on the company you are searching for should pop right up. Also note that most government websites are high page rank sites with a lot of google pull or what google calls authority sites. So in this case even when you search for the company name alone the scam results will pop right up.

Okay, we have to admit that the health and wellness industry today is larger than ever before and it seems as though everyday we are finding new companies starting up are always offering a chance to cure this and cure that or at least help with discomfort. HTE Americas company is one of those, with a unique twist that we found intriguing and had to take a deeper look into not only the product, but the income opportunity as well.

Have you ever heard of a SOQI Bed? Its a pretty interesting concept and consider the “New Negative Potential Body Enhancer” as projected on HTE Americas website, but what exactly is it? In short its a bed that makes you healthier, and for $4,300 you can have what is considered as your own spa right in the comfort of your own home. The philosophy behind it is well worth reading the information on their website, but here we want to talk more about the income opportunity.

While the SOQI bed is only one of several products to choose from, including nutritional products, there are several that start as low as $20 for someone to purchase and getting involved is nothing. HTE Americas website explains that because they are so interested in spreading health and wealth that their is no cost. Also because of this HTE doesn’t expect there to be a certain amount of sales volume per month, putting extra pressure on any distributors.

Although you will find that HTE Americas information sites suggest purchasing a Sales Kit for $24.95 that includes the long versioned history of HTE, along with health and product information, and of course CDs with more in depth knowledge discussed of pay plans and other important issues. We know one thing everyone wants to know when interested in a company is when are the checks disbursed. Here they are given out on the 15th of each month and if you do not want almost 30% taken out of each check make sure you give them your social security number.

There are four different levels you can be involved with at HTE Americas; Distributor, Supervisor, Manager, and President. The commission starts out at 15% at the distributor level, and will reach 40% by the time you reach the president level. All levels but the distributor’s, receive a commission on sales from their downlines so reaching that second level is very important for maximum products early in your new adventure. Even more so when you reach the illustrious Level IV and all of the President Level benefits.

As usual, whether you are researching a company like HTE Americas or anyone else be thorough in your research. We always like to point you in the right direction with enough information to get you started, like the fact that HTE has been in the states since 1993 which lets you know they don’t look to be going anywhere, anytime soon. The landscape of their products, especially the SOQI Bed, is geared around progressing into the future, not regressing. So take a deeper look, you may be interested in what their business has to offer.

Okay, of course we try to keep this unbiased when we review companies, but it’s a little different when the first thing we noticed was the Free Bahamas Vacation writing on the left side of Host4Profit. So of course, we had to click on the “Check Out Our First Winner”. Alright, It was me (Brian Garvin), haha, but I wanted you to see my pictures from the trip which was unbelievable and I have to thank Allen Says and David Hasbrouck for paying for that vacation.

We still wanted to review the Host4Profit company, owned by David Hasbrouck who has eight years of programming and Website Hosting experience under his belt on the internet, and give you a more in depth look at his company’s income opportunity. Actually, there are several so get ready for several choices.

The first thing we wanted to go over was the Host4Profit $10 per referral per month program. Reading over this, you could actually make $10,000 per month simply by referring people. However, that would take time, so let’s think a little more realistic in the beginning. If you could find 10 people a month, you would be making $100 each month at a progression and by December you would be making $1,200 a month. We know a lot of people that would love that extra money every month.

Although this is not the only form of income on the Host4Profit website, and David Hasbrouck offers something you don’t see really anywhere else. They have what is called Plug-in Profit Sites, and while other companies do have this type of innovation, we found that this company has a product within each Plug-in that no other website has on the internet. Although we can only see four of them; eBay Secrets Revealed, E-Mail Marketing Strategies Revealed, eBay Marketing Secrets, and Internet Cash Machines.

Not one, but all of these can be placed on your domain and sold, for most of them you keep 100% of the profits for each sale. Now let’s get serious for a moment, how many websites can you think of that will allow you to have four businesses already setup and ready to sell that can be placed on your domain just for getting a hosting account? Well, the only one we know of is Host4Profit, and with eight years in the business world, they definitely are reputable.

You’ll be able to go over to the Host4Profit website and check out some of the testimonials and just read some of the different reasons people love this company. We understand it may not be for you, but we still recommend that you at least take a look at it when you can. For $24.95 a month you can eventually turn this into a full time business. Not financially in your budget right now? That’s okay too, but remember that $10 per referral deal every month, if you bring three people in and you’ll never have to pay that at all since they don’t charge your card once you break the threshold after the referral.

All this sounds great, the Bahamas were fantastic, but at the end of the day, you have to be comfortable getting involved with any company. So as always make your list of questions you would ask, check out the Host4Profit website, do the proper research, and make an informed decision that works best for you and your family.

What is Hoodia?

Hoodia, if it is authentic, it is one of the most rare botanicals in the world. It is like a cactus plant that only grows in South Africa. There are compounds that have been isolated by Scientists that suppress the appetite. There is a molecule called P57. The mid-brain area is affected and this causes the nerve cell to feel like you are full, therefore you have no appetite.

How do I know if it is authentic or fake?

Hoodia is very publicized right now. It is all over the media as a natural weight loss product, the best in America. Many of the network news channels have featured as well as other print materials. Most of the reviews have been positive giving this even a bigger edge on the market. The product has become very high in demand and everyone is trying to get in on the business opportunity it provides.

This brings up a lot of opportunities for fraud. Since Hoodia Gordonii is so rare and only available from South Africa, the chance for counterfeit or fake hoodia is here and will be spread like wildfire.

Since this is a product claiming to be the best weight loss product, this is going to be the frenzy and fad. But remember, this product is VERY RARE, CONTROLLED and VERY EXPENSIVE! So if you are looking to get involved with this product in sales, or even trying it, be aware of a few things.

Know Before You Try or Buy!

1. EXTREMELY IMPORTANT! Make sure product is authenticated and has a lot number that corresponds with the batch tested on the product label. This test needs to be authenticated by a verifiable Independent Lab Report. (This is the most effective way to verify a high quality hoodia product. All premium hoodia products Will display this report with pride.)

2. Hoodia product will display a C.I.T.E.S (This shows that the product is authentic South African hoodia, date should be no more than 6 months old)

3. Should not list ANY fillers, additives or bulking agents in the active ingredients. Should be 100% pure hoodia.

4. Dosage; if they claim large amounts of hoodia, this is either a false claim or diluted. Consumer will become ill on more than 800 mg at one time.

5. Avoid any company using gimmick products

6. Avoid any company claiming cheap prices. The real product is very expensive, sold to manufacturers at $250 to $400 per kilo.

7. Beware of any company that offers “Free Trial”. There are email scams going on now and these are not genuine product.

8. Please, only choose a company that is established and can show verifiable credentials.

A verifiable company website should have the following:

A. Toll free number for questions or ordering

B. Independent testing of product for purity or contamination

C. Physical business address

D. Refund policy that is well defined

E. A seal from the Better Business Bureau with a link to their site

F. Customer service phone number (try it and ask questions to verify)

As a summary, there are many companies that will try to take advantage of you and me because this is a new product on the market and very much in demand. Please take all of these tips into consideration while you are looking to a company to represent. Also, with any network marketing plan, always read the fine print and look at the compensation plan forward and backward.

You will find hoodia in pill forms that will provide great results; results have shown hoodia taken in the liquid extract form may provide faster results. Anything other than the pill form or liquid extract will be nothing more than hype and will not give you any of the benefits that you or your customer will be looking for.

IGONET is a way to make money from a home business which connects a home business owner to the outside world primarily using the world wide web. The internet connects a home business owner to the marketing structure that is known as IGONET. The hope and dream of any stay at home business entrepreneur is to maintain and sustain a long-term residual income that can provide for themselves. This income should also be substantial enough to meet up to the income market and economy of the current country they are living in.

The IGONET income opportunity is best explained as a funnel system that people can use. The funnel system works fairly easy and can be used by most people. However to be efficient at using the system one must aspire to work long and hard hours at first as the IGONET income may be low at first then higher as one establishes his or her home business. Most of these systems start out with a simple drawback.

The simple drawback is that one must provide or pay a one-time only fee that covers all the tools and helpful hints of past or previous IGONET users that helps the new person become very familiar with the whole system. The faster a person joins the system the faster a person builds off the whole system because more and more people joining means that the pay will be better. By joining early on a person guarantees his or her/self with a steady income right away.

The IGONET funnel system works like this a person buys his or her way into the funnel system for a price that can be any amount. Most start at either a lump sum of fifty to one hundred dollars. This price does not necessarily have to be this high or even this low in some cases or circumstances. Also, a person can get in on the IGONET system by paying a monthly bill, fee, or sum for as little as five to ten dollars or as high as ten to fifty dollars. This is also subject to much or little change as possible it is entirely up to the company you are dealing with.

After a person pays his or her fees he or she is in the funnel system. All the other people who were already in the system then get to get a share of the person’s entry fee which is not very much but becomes a lot after about a million people join. So, for instance, if one million people join the funnel system you have just made ten thousand dollars by just paying one hundred dollars.

Basically, just by signing up you make money then by following all the instructions that tell you how to make your own home business, you can succeed in that angle as well. An IGONET home business system can make a lot of money in two ways which are fairly easy and can provide a steady, substantial income for many years.

Ignite Energy MLM is a perfect example of using the MLM genealogy leads. Another company called Excel goes under and most of the people from there end up rolling right into I.E. Coincidence? Not really, it was pretty much everyone that made money in the telecommunications company could be leaders in this new business and make it go from just a match to igniting overnight.

If your looking for a company where you deal with inventory, Ignite Energy is not for you. There is no inventory dealing with electricity deregulation which makes life a heck of a lot easier in this MLM company. Add a low investment plan and many are easily interested in this newer opportunity.

You might be wondering how exactly you make money with Ignite Energy MLM. This is an important thing to think about and more people should with every business even though this is slightly different. After getting the full background information on the company its just like any other MLM in the sense that you need to get people to come in underneath you.

Evidently, the people that are making the big bucks, driving the fancy cars, and showing off their wealth are those that are leaders. The ones that don’t go one on one with someone very much. Instead they settle for nothing less then groups of 10, 20, or hundreds of people. The ones that send you invitations to come visit a seminar in the local hotel.

Plan on pulling out the checkbook when joining Ignite Energy MLM because the initial cost for is $329 plus an annual fee of $99. If you want to become certified to do like the big wigs do and go to fairs, malls, and give big presentations you can pay an additional $99 on top of the initial cost and you’ll become a Marketing Associate Director.

Explaining the payment plan would only confuse you, but they do have videos that make it a lot more understandable then reading an article and just having that big question mark over your head when your done. There are discounts, however, if you live in different states ranging from $199-$299.

Ignite Energy MLM is for the serious multilevel marketer. The good thing about an investment this size is people take the program a lot more seriously then one where you pay an initial fee of $0-$50. Not to take anything away from those businesses, but many times its a lot easier for people to get lazy if the out of pocket is minimal.

If you feel this company is for you and that the deregulation of electricity is going to be the wave of the future, your search for a home based business could be over. However, you should bring along your own questions and criteria when making your final decision. Which ever you decide, you’ll at least know when you done that you researched everything you needed to within the Ignite Energy MLM.
