If you're still looking for a real Home Based Business I'm pretty sure you'll like what we've got. How would you like to make $75 per hour processing FedEX and UPS refunds from your home computer. Well, this is the REAL DEAL . . . click on the link below to access the FREE REPORT! I want to assure you this opportunity has NOTHING to do with MLM, internet marketing, affiliate programs, or any goofy scheme where you're required to recruit or sell anything — it's simply an incredible business that's made possible by a closely guarded SECRET of the shipping industry. We have successful Refund Processors all over the country. These are NOT mammoth companies with multi-million dollar marketing budgets, rather these are regular people just like you who started out with this software and turned it into a profitable |
Origins: One concept that generally holds true for all fantastic money-making schemes is this: those
who truly knew a "secret" to making
What's being hawked here is a software package that processes airbills and produces reports listing packages which were delivered late. Most package delivery services such as FedEx or UPS guarantee
Our software produces a report that tells you how many packages ABC is owed a credit on (14) and also the total amount of refund owed ($238) this takes
ABC company sends 200 FedEx overnight packages per week. On average 7% of the packages are late. FedEx guarantees on time delivery. In this case, a refund is owed on
Theoretically this program could work, but there's one large catch to it: You, the entrepreneur, have to find companies
Suffice it to say there aren't many companies that fit this bill. FedEx clients can track and verify package deliveries (and request refunds for late deliveries) for free on the FedEx web site, so those clients have no real need to pay someone to do it for them. Even if the process were too cumbersome for clients to handle manually, they still wouldn't need to pay you to do it for them; they could simply purchase the same software product themselves
The bottom line: the only people making money from "refund processing" software are those who are selling it to gullible buyers.
