Text Ad Party Sign Up Explained

I've become an admin at a Text Ad Exchange site called Text Ad Party...

I'm working on growing a membership base from the ground up, so there aren't a lot of members at my site yet. The good side of this is that if people get in now while membership is low, I've got time to make special deals and provide extra advertising as well as help to newcomers. I'll have spare time to spend on tutoring any new members who are unaware of all the benefits of using Text Ad Exchanges.

Here's a promo code for new members who join Text Ad Party...

Promo Code: jvupgrade (no capitals, no spaces - just lower-case all squashed together into one word block)

Here's how to claim the promo code:

• Sign up for free at Text Ad Party: Text Ad Party Sign Up Link
:)
• Confirm/validate your account (use legitimate email address and click the link in the email that is sent after you submit the sign up form)
• Once signed in to your new account, look along the left sidebar menu to find the words/button, "Advertise Here" near the top of the menu:

• Or - you can also look for the words/button, "Redeem Promo Code" closer to the bottom of the menu:

• Using either of the buttons will bring you to a page where you can redeem your promo code.
• Just type:  jvupgrade
• In the promo code space provided and press the "submit" button.

• After you submit the promo code, the page will change and let you know that your action has been confirmed. After confirmation, you can scroll back along the left hand side-bar and click on "Advertise Here." 
• Scroll back down the advertising page to see the available advertising you just gained by redeeming the promo code.

Using the promo code at Text Ad Party will give new members over 2000 points for varying forms of advertising (ad views, email ad views, banner ad views, etc) to get started with as well as:

• 10 Text Ad line ads PER DAY
• 4 HTML Advertising PER DAY
• store 10 URLs in Text Ad Party Link Cloaker/tracker

This might not sound like a lot at this point, but for ads viewed, you receive credits/points to your account which are then redeemable for other forms of advertising, including:

• Solo Email Ads
• Banner Ads (468x60, common banner size)
• Header Ads (at the top of the pages)
• Traffic Links (a link list members use to gain credits - high visibility)
• Navigation Link Ads (side-bar ads)
• Featured Ads (side-bar, set in places people look to most on a page, shown to those browsing by or those logged in - high visibility)
• Footer Ads (at the bottom of pages)
• Button Banner Ads (125x125 squares, common in nav-bars)
• Hot Links (placed where text is read by members, highly visible, often near admin notices, etc)
• Full Page Login Ads (full page shown. When anyone logs in they see your page)

There are only a few types of advertising you can't get by converting credits to redeem for ads at Text Ad Party - Daily Login Click Bonus spot, PTC Ads and some Specials.

It takes just a few minutes of clicking ads to gain enough credits/points to redeem for banner ads, solo ads, hot links, header and footer ads - but mainly you will want to log in and CLICK THE DAILY BONUS BUTTON AD right away. It gives over a thousand points right after you log in and click. 

Likely the most valuable ads you will want to gain credits/points for will be the SOLO ADS. These go out for members to click on to view your ad. They are clicked on all the time because they provide other members with credits/points. Sometimes people will log in and click on a few banners but will not have time to view every other kind of ad on the site but they will likely always view SOLO ADS for the credits. Your ad is more likely to be seen with this form of advertising than some others - though taking advantage of all the advertising formats is essential if you want responses/sign ups, and views out of your ads.

I think this is all you'll need to know how to sign up successfully at Text Ad Party, immediately gain your JV level Upgrade, extra points, and even click a few ads so you can convert points/credits for varied ad formats to advertise with.

If you have questions remaining after sign up, just look on the navigation menu at the left-hand side-bar for the "Contact Support" button. It's an internal message system. Send a message through the support feature on-site and I'll respond ASAP.

The Suspects (income Killers)

The Suspects who are killing peoples' internet marketing earnings are as follows...

The Internet Pitch-people: These people mostly "pitch" products and say their product/information is best, better than anything out there, sometimes saying that their product/information is the only one that WORKS.

The Up-Sellers: These marketers never give the value over from their first claim and always suggest that "the next product" or "the next program/join" will contain the product/information or opportunity the prospect is looking for.

The Downline Sharks: These marketers don't really care about anything other than increasing their downlines. They build a few great sales/offer and entrance to program pages, then spam you or only link you to other programs so you can be in their downline. These people offer no training advice on how to promote, no other value for becoming a "joiner," and don't respond to email requests for help - if you're lucky enough even to find a working email contact address attached to any of their pages/offers.

The Scammers: People who outright create scams, visit and run pages, faulty products and info-product sellers, etc. People who spend $50 or less to get program pages up, run a money making program for a month or two, maybe a little longer - receive upgrade funds or sales money from their online pages... then dash away with your cash.

The GURUs: The Internet Marketing Gurus who say any of a number of things to get you to buy into their programs or purchase their info-products or any products they happen to be selling. These Gurus often say you can work your way up from nothing into steady earnings or even riches within a year but they use covert marketing techniques, including some of the methods above, and they have a LOT of money already, so they are able to engage in marketing methods that are more expensive and out of reach of the average person. They will coax until you also fork out money for their highest cost marketing measures even if you aren't even skilled enough to understand how to use these tools. They often also down-talk all other earning programs in favor of theirs. They will likely teach you only covert and high cost marketing techniques and will drop you from their programs if you miss a payment or argue with their methods. Their attitude is "It Takes Money To Make Money" but they mostly mean "It takes YOUR Money to make ME Money."

The Lame-Leaders: These are people using mostly up-seller culprit techniques from up-seller suspects and, sadly, people who do not understand what they are doing at all but are promoting pages, instructions of up-sellers because they are told to by inexperienced sponsors/team leaders. These are like the blind leading the blind and this group of people is probably the largest online who are flashing pages around everywhere.

The Sparklers: these are suspects who bombard their prospects with shiny and sparkly things - promises of riches for working at home in underwear, etc. These people are basically great with product PITCHES but aim straight at peoples' natural attraction for shiny objects/sparkly possibilities of overnight riches.

Yes, I think a number of these suspects have kidnapped my 10K Challenge sponsees... if anyone has witnessed an abduction, please contact me.

And Then There Were None...

For any acquainted with Agatha Christie literature, the title, "And Then There Were None" (1939) ranks as one of the most highly acclaimed of the Christie detective/mystery scenarios.

For those who have never read but still intend to enjoy the book or see the movie or a theatrical version of this story, I will try not to spoil the ending here...

Basically, ten people who have been complicit in the deaths of other people have escaped notice by law authorities. Somehow, they are all invited to a remote location - to be guests on an island retreat. Then they are picked off one by one until there are none... in the manners detailed in an old children's nursery rhyme called "Ten Little Indians."

Warning, Near Spoiler:

It is hard for the reader to figure out who picks the people off in the Christie literature...the ending to this book leaves the reader with many questions and unresolved issues. It's a damn fine murder mystery regardless of whether or not I have mentioned a near spoiler (I still haven't provided a name, character or situation - just a warning).

So what does this have to do with the theme of this blog and The 10K Challenge?

More than you might think!

The title, "And Then There Were None" happens to be how some of my days and weeks have turned out during my 10K Challenge. Some days and even for full weeks I have failed to get referrals.

And for those referrals who remain, some go inactive, stop responding to emails or prompts within the 10K Challenge which ask the participant to get in touch with their sponsor...

For many reasons, it is like some of my referrals are getting picked off and eliminated, as in the Christie story.

++++++++++++++++

Ten Little Marketers:

Ten Little Marketers Joined in my downline
One was overwhelmed and then there were nine

Nine Little Marketers this count is great
One got distracted, then there were eight

Eight Little Marketers dreaming of riches in Heaven
One failed to ask for help - then there were seven

Seven Little Marketers learning marketing tricks
One skipped some 10K Steps and then there were six

Six Little Marketers attempting to thrive
One joined other offers and then there were five

Five Little Marketers no longer wanting to be poor
One found some HYIPS and then there were four

Four Little Marketers rubbing hands in their glee
One realized work was involved, so then there were three

Three Little Marketers with hearts ever so true
Needed cash overnight, so then there were two

Two Little Marketers wanted to play in the sun
One went to the beach and so then there was one

One Little Marketer thought he was on a money run
One spammed his links around, then there were none

++++++++++++++++
Here, instead of murderous people, in online marketing circles we have "truth killers," who spread lies and pitches around - distracting people from legitimate earning programs.

Do Not Have To Like Everything

I have come across things I do not like about the 10K Challenge. Minor things... details that I cringe over a little bit...

However

I follow instructions to the best of my ability and things work out okay.

One of the things I don't like is the "Self-Help/Motivational Program" in the downline builder. I don't have to upgrade in it - I have choices... this is what I DO LIKE about the 10K Challenge (having choices).

Not liking the one program (actually there are a couple I don't like too much) does NOT prevent me from following instructions, utilizing everything else about the program. I wont name the program here because not liking it is just opinion and is a preference based choice. I know I see other 10K Members promoting it, so I'm probably in the minority here.

Not liking one program that has an OPTIONAL tag on it is of very little consequence to me and since the program is optional - I just stick with necessary activities and all the other programs.

• I still get mailings and advertising out
• I am admin of a Text Ad Exchange via what I have learned in the 10K Challenge
• I have over a 20 Referrals now (no, most aren't active but some are)
• I have been paid two months in a row from 10K Challenge related activity
• I am learning more, every day, on how to increase response to the ads I place
• I have basic task time down to a half hour for mailing out over 100, 000 ads
• On bad days when I have little time for being online I still mail to 100, 000
• On good days, I spend about 90 min sending out from 100,000-750,000 ads!

If I do not participate and upgrade in one program involved in the 10K downline builder - again, an OPTIONAL program - the world is not going to come to an end and I am not affecting my sponsor or referrals in any big way by not participating.

What is really important here is that I double check on what the purpose of the programs are in the downline builder and MAKE SURE I am participating in all of the ones I am supposed to which affect my sponsor and referrals.

One little dislike, one little annoying program and my lack of participation in it does not have to bring down negative consequences for me or change greatly the effect of utilizing the 10K Challenge program. Frankly, I haven't participated in another big downline program that STILL WORKS when I skip an optional program.

What is your least favorite 10K Challenge program (hey - we dont all have to LOVE everything, do we)?

The 10K Challenge Might Look Like Some Other Programs

Trust me...

It's NOT!

The differences lie in the details.

At face value, yeah - the 10K Challenge site is a massive downline builder site. Many of us who haven't succeeded with online money making programs have seen a number of downline builder sites. Maybe we've even joined a few, quite a few - or a lot of them.

I'm still a member in a couple of what are said by the program owners to be "simple money making downline builder sites" that the average person is supposed to be able to succeed with. When I compare these NOW - with the 10K Challenge site... what I notice is a whole bunch of details missing from the previous programs I signed up with. Really important little details (like how to build credits fast for free safelist account mailings!).

As already mentioned in a previous post - I have had some failures with the 10K Challenge program. Fortunately and FINALLY - these mistakes have been little ones that I have been able to learn from. Mostly, with things broken down into steps, I find I do okay.

In corresponding with a couple of referrals, I heard complaints that the program is too complicated. I asked them to backtrack and slow down (like I had to), only do what can be done in 35 minutes then take a break... Also, because the member dashboard area looks a little like other download builder sites, there is a tendency to SKIP STEPS AND INSTRUCTIONS... THIS IS THE BIGGEST MISTAKE I MADE in the beginning - and then I was failing to move forward, felt overwhelmed and like I shouldn't be in the program.

(current referrals who are no longer keeping in contact with me are likely at this stage of frustration right now - if they don't follow advice, I know they will quit the program altogether - but I have no worries about this - not their time to move forward - I will keep moving ahead and work with referrals who DO WANT TO correspond with me, follow instructions, and move forward).

I had to learn to get out of that "AUTOMATIC MODE" where I just start doing what I THINK I should be doing...instead of checking the step by step instructions, videos, learning materials.

This is what I do: I do more than 35 minutes per day (I have advanced on to become a site admin now, so I'm doing more than 35 minutes of added site management tasks now) but I don't do too much in any long stretch of time or else I start making mistakes, veering away from the instructions in the program. It's ever so easy to get distracted online. Perhaps I am most thankful for the tips in the first 3 levels of the program... about staying focused, working very hard for about a half hour to get absolutely necessary tasks completed - before the possibility arises that I will get distracted and off course...

I supposed I'm just rambling now but I am just amazed at how this 10K site can appear quite plainly like other sites I haven't been able to succeed and earn with. Amazed with the small details that make things different than other money maker downline builder sites - by leaps and bounds.

And with that... I'm off to go mess around in my Text Ad Exchange admin panel! (never thought I would actually manage one of these sites!).

10K Challenge Old Version

The 10K Challenge site/program originally launched in January 2012. The program/site owner is Debbie Penner. The 10K Challenge is said to offer the opportunity of earning with well over 30 multiple income streams. This means - there is a lot of potential for members to get into their dashboard area and get really, REALLY confused!

My inability to sort myself out when confronted with what I feel are mind-numbingly boring online earning tasks, then also manage hoardes of links, I.D./Password combinations, and a little bit of online code in order to be an "online marketer" has kept me very low in the cash flow department. I also have learning difficulties and am on a disability (below poverty level) income - so I have never been able to afford long term subscriptions, upgrades and fees for online marketing "tools" that most successful marketers say are absolutely necessary for earning money online.

Imagine my surprise when I joined The 10K Challenge a few months ago, followed the instructions (which seemed easier to me than in any other program I ever tried before - in 8 years of attempting to earn money online!), SCREWED UP a few times - and still managed to gain some referrals.

I've been sick a few times and out of commission - so to speak... for several days at a time - and still got referrals. I didn't always complete my daily 10K Challenge tasks according to schedule - but I still got some referrals in the program, anyway!

I'm not writing to suggest to anyone that it's a good idea to join this program, mess around, leave the program sitting and then expect to make money with it. I have worked hard on the program tasks for every day I do show up to participate in learning then promoting the program. I'm just saying that despite the challenges I already face with disability and illness, this program is making earning online possible for me.

Relaunched:
Join the 10K Challenge
 
Just a few days ago, earlier in September, Debbie Penner "re-launched" the 10K Challenge with a whole bunch of tweaks and improvements. Now the dashboard area and format of the member area is even easier to navigate and looks less cluttered and distracting. Instructions have been improved and some "steps/stages" of activity have been re-assessed and changed, as well - all with a focus on simplicity.

I was already experiencing multiple and pleasant surprises every few days with the 10K Challenge and as I proceeded through new instructions bit by bit as the instructions explain. I didn't think the program could be made much easier but now that I've had a few days to work in the new re-launched dashboard and go over new instructions, I think the program is even more valuable than before.

I get way over one hundred visitors to my program page per day - some days at least three hundred. All for working under an hour a day on good days - a little over an hour on days when I'm having trouble with concentration and organization skills. The program says "earn in 35 minutes a day" and for me, anything under two hours is worth working on as long as I am seeing results.

I saw results with the old 10K Challenge before it was altered...

It looks like the new, re-vamped and improved 10K Challenge is only going to increase my earning chances and potential for success in the program now!

Canceling and Re-Establish SL Accounts

One thing I found troublesome in my 10K Challenge Journey, within the first 30 days was in the cancel and re-establish safelist accounts process.

I was already a member for some of the safelists used in the 10k Challenge, but I wanted to be under my 10K Challenge sponsor in this whole process, so I did cancel some safelist accounts, waited a few days (usually 3-7 days), then used my 10k Challenge sponsor's referral links to re-establish membership with safelist accounts.

Despite this, I still gained referrals and success with the program!

Pros: I know who my sponsor is at every safelist now and I have contact with my sponsor who can share information about every site/program I'm involved with.

Cons: on a few days, my online activities related to the 10K Challenge took more than 35 minutes for me to complete. (This is not a fault of the program, in fact - no fault or wrongs here at all - just something unplanned for that happened in my situation).

I feel the pros outweighed the cons, by far and just wanted to share a little about a very surmountable bump I experienced in my 10K Challenge journey.

At first, when I realized I had a few accounts to cancel, wait time for which I wouldn't have certain accounts active for sending out emails, I felt overwhelmed. I took a few days off related to sign-ups but kept reviewing instructions from my member dashboard, then jumped back in when I was ready to focus on managing this small hurdle.

I have learning disabilities, so some things that seem small to other people can be more confusing to me than to the average person - especially related to staying focused and related to organizing things. Once I made a little extra time for solution-based thinking and tasks, I went to work solving a small problem I'd run into.

I encourage anyone who has a bewildering moment in the program to go ahead and log off, log out, take a break... come back in a few hours with the willingness to focus for 10 minutes aside from the 35 minutes allotted for The 10K Challenge tasks. Focus for 10 minutes on a particular obstacle, then resume 10K Challenge activities.

In the end, this is what my stress free solution was to the problem I encountered and made the problem surmountable in a very short time.
