By: Th Enviralize Me Network "The idea originally came to me when I was trying to figure out how to get my books noticed," says Wayne Hicks, the owner and operator of the Network, who is also a self-published novelist. "The trick to making it in self-publishing is to be able to put your book in front of a lot of people's eyes, so that those who might be interested can see it. And once I developed this technique, it dawned on me that there are many other applications for it." So he opened it up to the public, contracting with companies and individuals to provide them with heavy traffic flows, and charging low fees for each "click" to his clients' content. "I write an engaging blog post about the client's project, and post it on the website. Then I notify all of the Network's Members, who log in and share the posts across social media sites." Those Members are also independent agents of the Network, and are paid for each post they share. Member Mark Rhodes says it adds up. "I made about ninety dollars last month, and this month I'm already over a hundred and twenty. I'm not getting rich, but I didn't have to pay anything to get into this, either. And it makes a difference when you've got a family to support on a low wage job." According to Wayne, however, business is growing, and what most Members see as "a little extra money" may become much more substantial in the near future. "I'm talking with some big companies who do a lot of PR work, and for them it's usually cheaper to contract with me than to maintain a staff of social media marketers. And while they might have a few people posting their message on Facebook, I'll soon have hundreds, and eventually thousands. It's well worth the small per-click fees I charge for the level of attention the Network can generate. If all goes well, some of the Members may be able to quit their minimum-wage day jobs pretty soon." In addition, he's looking into ways to make the Network even more beneficial to clients."I'm talking witha programmer who can set it up so I can target geographical areas, sending posts to Members in specific areas of the country, things like that. And we're exploring other possibilities, as well." This is a new paradigm for Wayne, who originally set up the Network on a points system that allowed Members to redeem reqards. When he went commercial, however, he felt the need to pay out in cash, instead. "There are so many of these 'work at home' programs being pushed online, where people tell you that you can make money for free, but once you join you find out you have to spend money on something in order to get to the point where you can earn anything. And some of them are outright scams, anyway. It suddenly dawned on me that I had the chance to offer a legitimate way to make some extra money online, one that didn't involve any fees and was a genuine benefit to the people who need that little extra to make ends meet. And now it's beginning to pay off in big ways, both for me and for them." Learn more about The Enviralize Me Network at http://eniralize.me. End
