I've not ever thought of that....I need to get into the groove. let's put up a website and get people to sign up with us for $100 to do $50 work...Novel idea...but then there's little thing called integrity....

$1 in an envelope ...
Showing my age. These offers remind me of the old put $1 cash in an envelope chain mail where if everyone keeps the chain going you end up with $25 or more mailed to you.
Modern technoligy and inflation: now it's $50-100 via credit card and through the internet.

Bobbi, I just realized that I never said thank you for your $1 way back when. Thank you!
Maybe we should send that letter out again but send it directly to these companies for them to send around? LOL

Re: $1 in an envelope ...
Yeah - be sure to make it look like an official government document like the one I got the other day from a company claiming to be an official government department collecting on old businesses (99% out of business) who hadn't renewed their business entity paperwork with the state. I used to have a cake decorating business and at the very bottom of the paper, in tiny type, it said, "this is not an invoice" yet they were raking in the bucks, $125 at a time, tricking people into doing what they could do themselves for $10 online if they wanted to bring their businesses back up as active....sheesh!
