As Chad G said, I've been hitting the leaderboards just about every week. I did really good last week...

In just about every online business that I've been a part of, the forums always had a section where you could post scanned images of checks, screenshots, etc. This helped in recruiting efforts MAJORLY. Who wouldn't join after seeing a scanned check for thousands of dollars? Or, a PayPal screenshot of a $400 weekly bonus?

Prospects that come to these forums and see proof of payments will have a much higher chance of joining, I guarantee it.

I'm at the top of the main leaderboards this week and I'm really happy!     

Honestly, I attribute a lot of my success to the tips that I've found on this forum!

Lovin' GDI,

Earn $2,000+ Per Month

For some reason, headlines with number figures have always attracted the best attention for me when I am advertising.

If they will let us copy them, I am going to copy them. I can make 50 for $10 including my own "professional packaging."

I was hoping they would be like $25 for 50 copies. Instead, $25 will only get you 8 copies. That's only $8/month. No profit. And you can't always count on the weekly bonuses because they can come and go at anytime and who knows how many people would sign up out of those 8 copies that you gave out.

I say we should be allowed to copy.

I use ProAutoResponder

I can send you my campaign/follow up e-mails through that program if you are a member. My e-mails are obviously working, I was on top of the starter leaderboards last week.

I've redesigned my website, please let me know what you think...

http://stub.ws

Awesome, where can I sign up to be on the next edition?

Umm, actually, if GDI says that it is okay for affiliates to duplicate the DVD’s, then it wouldn’t impinge on any copyright laws because they unequivocally agreed to let us reproduce them. In my opinion, it shouldn’t matter because it would ultimately benefit them anyway. Think about it.

Hey Frank... yeah did you see the small banner I had on the page? You may have to wait a sec for it to come up.

I made a copy of tinyurl.com except my url's are shorter and the website is extremely simple and clean. Check it out and tell me what you think!

Ok, here it is... I asked support if we are allowed to submit leads that we purchase outside of GDI into the invite system and the answer is NO. Here is the response from "Lupe".

Good Afternoon,

It is at your discretion to purchase outside leads. However you are not
able to use the invite system from within your affiliate account to send
them out.  You may use your outside email address if you wish to do so.

Kindest Regards,

Lupe

So there you have it. You cannot manually enter outside leads into the invite system. So those of you who are manually entering 100 per day into the system, I suggest you stop before your account gets suspended.

Also, to recap what I stated earlier, you must provide a link to the GDI e-mail removal page on every GDI related message you send. This includes every e-mail (even if it is with a newsletter), this also includes every safe list e-mail (even if that safe list has its own opt-out link).

If you want to enter your leads into an autoresponder, I would recommend GetResponse or ProAutoResponder.

Chris, you said it yourself, they opted-in to receive a business opportunity offer, therefore it is not spam and you can contact them even if you don't know them. Lot's of times I will include their opt-in information for proof. However, to also stay in accordance with GDI's spam policy, you need to ask them if you can send them information because GDI only wants invites going to people that you have had previous contact with or leads that were purchased from GDI directly.

I have submitted a support inquiry to the support team and we shall soon have the correct answer.

Good question, I believe we are supposed to first e-mail them and ask if they would like more information on your opportunity. But then again, nearly everyone I talk to purchases ip address/timestamped leads and submits them through the invite system without prior contact. Nicole, can you clear this up?

Chris, regardless of whether or not your autoresponder has its own opt-out link, you MUST also provide the GDI opt-out link in conjunction.
