The Portal is designed to be a home page, bringing everything anyone could ever want or need on the internet into one URL customized for the individual consumer. The site learns personal preferences over time and use. It has everything there, like the Microsoft FAST search engine, weather, news, entertainment, music and links to thousands of other stores with millions of products in case the user wants to toggle back and forth without closing down marketamerica.com. It has social networks intergrated into it and a tool bar at the top that keeps everything live and open at one's fingertips: hot deals, ma MyWorld music/entertainment, e-mail, Facebook, Twitter, Chatterbox, shopping, blogs, ma Network (for recommendations and connecting with people who have similar likes), alerts, and ma Messenger for instant communication and alerts to match people to products.
The user enters a fun sticky environment, but then we pay people 2-35 percent cash back just to shop and invite others (1/2 percent for every qualified purchase made by referred customers forever). Additionally, UnFranchise Owners (IFOs) are paid to be online, which is why marketamerica.com makes the perfect home page for anyone. UFOs get paid for their searches and every Preferred Customer who makes it their home page. When visitors or customers click on product offers or ads, the UFO gets paid for impressions.
We also have an Associate program where anyone with a third-party website, social network page, or blog can offer Market America products or partner products from the Portal. Anyone who clicks on it will get 2-35 percent cash back for shopping and the owner of the site gets 1/2 percent cash, while the UFO gets the benefit of the orders credited to their Portal. The additional traffic results in higher advertising dollars on the Portal, which we convert back into higher cash back or IBV to the UFO. So everyone truly gets paid to shop and paid to be online and get others online. THAT IS REVOLUTIONARY!!!
The site becomes a community or environment that is cool, fun and addictive. When something is so effective and makes life easier, people can't live without it and becomes a new paradigm. It makes no sense to shop the old way or to hike through countless brick-and-mortar stores, sorting through disorganized racks and waiting in line or fighting traffic.
With our Microsoft FAST search finding what you want instantly across 35 million products and 3,500 brand name partners, with hot deals pushed right to the consumer (free shipping, promotions, coupons, deep discounts,) comparison shopping (across numerous brands, stores, styles), with reviews showing what other shoppers think, and with recommendations serving up offers based on someone's unique buying habits - why shop anywhere else? Plus get paid to shop!? It's cray, insane - off the chain!
Like a Blackberry becomes a "crackberry," or an iPhone becomes an application arsenal to do anything you want, the Internet is a way of life, Google is a verb, and a cell phone is a life line that everyone must have with them at all times. In the future, when someone thinks of shopping, they will think of marketamerica.com and their UFO, personal guide or product broker.
I expect Market America to hit $1 billion in volume this year, $10 billion within five years and $50 billion within 10 years from international expansion (Europe and Latin American countries are next) and the shopping experience with paid to shop and paid to be online. That allows ma and its UFOs to create their own sub-economy internationally through their collective buying power. We eliminate the cost of brick and mortar, inventories spread all over rather than centralized, and mass media advertising. That serves over 60 cents on the dollar allowing us to pay customer to shop, give better prices, better quality, and pay the UFOs and ongoing income rather than the big conglomerates and companies.
What happens when UFOs have business cross-pollinating in countries around the world and people in one country are earning a check in another country. I think the solution to world peach and prosperity is economy-based rather than political or ideological, and that when everyone is making money they are hesitant to anger or take up arms against their own partners. Who is going to shoot their check? Powerful!
Am I a dreamer? Maybe so, but I am not the only one. It is simple and it works. We are providing consumers worldwide with a better way to shop, while empowering entrepreneurs with a proven system to create ongoing income. Through revolutionary technology and the power of people, we are creating the economy of the future.
