The RESTART Feature

Life offers no guarantees, except change and our passing, which is a certainty. If you've have several bad experiences in online businesses or marketing opportunities, it is natural to be skeptical when presented with something like Profit Clicking. What is my guarantee that I will make money? And even more important: What is my guarantee that I will NOT LOSE money?

Experience is what led Frederick Mann, creator of Just Been Paid, which is now Profit Clicking or PC, to work on a solution to keep the program sustainable. His many years of participating in similar programs made it clear to him that without a "safety net" in place, these programs, however way they come, will not and cannot last.

We are not investing

Why? The programs are NOT investments. The money you put into the program is not invested anywhere for it to earn profits. It should never be misconstrued as investments. Rather, it is a system by which people can help one another make money. Because it utilizes technology and the internet, advertising (next to retail) is the most logical business model.

What will it then take for a program to be a success? First is the integrity of the owner or owners running the program. If the intention is to make off with people's money, no amount of safety nets can ensure an online program will last. If the vision is to help people MAKE money, then every possible step should be taken to make this happen.

Keep it running

That is the reason behind the Restart Feature, which was an intrinsic part of JBP, and which will continue to be adopted by Profit Clicking. The point will come when it will be difficult to meet the company's obligations to pay out daily rebates for Ad Packs (1.5% - 2%). Since the intention is to keep the program sustainable, there must be a solution to this challenge.

When members buy Ad Packs in exchange for traffic views, the money they spend becomes the company's revenue used to operate the program. In essence, members fund PC's operations, including paying for its staff, maintaining servers, and paying the daily rebates. That's the contract -- buy an Ad Pack for $10, receive $15 in rebates. But daily rebates are obligations, therefore LIABILITIES. A company can only be sustainable if it has more ASSETS than LIABILITIES.

Delaying gratification

A RESTART, which will convert a percentage of Ad Packs to either cash or PC Panels, or both, aims to reduce those liabilities. Conversion means prematurely ending an Ad Pack's life cycle even before it earns 150%. But to protect the membership who fund the company's operations, they must be given something in return for this conversion, which will temporarily decrease daily earnings.

The answer is PC Panels. A PC Panel is a 2x2 matrix that will also give a rebate of $60 when it is filled. For this to happen, the company must first receive at least $80 so that it earns $20 in revenues, while paying out the $60. So how is this an advantage to the company when it will still pay members a bigger amount? Unlike Ad Packs which earn daily, there is NO FIXED time when a PC Panel will cycle. It takes longer for a member to earn the rebate, and this period of time will allow the company to build its coffers again.

It becomes a win-win solution for both the company and the members. The bottomline? No one loses money. It may take longer to make money, but it will happen.

Overcoming challenges

Depending on how big your Ad Pack account is, your Restart experience will vary. And lately, how well you can cushion your account from Restarts will make a difference in your results. It is not the end of the world when a Restart happens. It can sting. It can cripple. But the one thing Frederick Mann kept drumming into people's heads is your success will depend on how you handle such challenges.

You can always get back on your feet, but you have to want to stand up after falling.

With additional features and innovations to bring in more profits, PC may not have to resort to as many frequent Restarts. But even if it did, what is important is that the program continues to operate and members can look forward to make money easier than they would with often underpaid 9-5 jobs.

  1. Nice thoughts Zola :) It's really difficult to predict when restart will take effect but having this in mind will help members understand that it's for the sake of both the company and its members.

    Btw, I'm currently developing a Social network for Pinoy Profit Clicker. Hope you join us! Here is the link: http://pinoyprofitclicker.webs.com/
