Shopping and Product Reviews

Product Shares is in pre- launch at the moment and is the creation of Valerie Underhill an experienced internet marketer who also launched the very successful "marketing pond network" back in 2007. In essence the company is as the name suggests a revenue sharing platform. The idea is that you purchase a share in a product for $15 per share and with this you will receive 2,000 banner credits and 2,000 free text ads. The more product shares that you purchase in a single go, the more benefits you will receive.

Okay, so this is all well and good but how do you make money?

The idea is pretty simple and straight forward. If you refer someone into the business you receive 10% and a further 5% on indirect referrals. However you do not have to sponsor people to receive revenue. The idea is that it is all about the shares in the product. Therefore, the more shares you have the bigger the slice of the pie. The company will also give away prizes such as Amazon and eBay vouchers as well as a top prize of a laptop computer.

The secret to the success behind Product Shares it to re-invest your payouts back into more shares in the product. If you can do this and not be tempted to withdraw your cash, then there is a chance that you might make some reasonably good money. Because of this, it is not a quick payout kind of business and is definitely a long term investment opportunity. This type of business is good if you are running it alongside another full time job or trying to make a little extra money to put by for a rainy day.

It is not the sort of opportunity to invest in if it is going to be your only source of income as you are not going to see a return on your investment for a little while. There are other working from home type businesses that will give you a much quicker and probably larger ROI than this opportunity does, so you will definitely need to know this before you spend time and indeed money with this opportunity.

Having said all that, if you are "time poor" and feel that you don't have the time to run a business alongside you daily working routine then this might just be for you. As an investment opportunity, Product Shares works. Even at pre launch there are lots of people getting involved and once you purchase shares you will not only receive a share of the revenue cut, but you will also receive membership into other programs on various aspects of internet marketing.

On the whole Valerie Underhill has a good reputation and a good following as an internet marketer and this is why there is a lot of hype surrounding Product Shares. There is a lot of information on the website but just keep in mind its always a good idea to speak with a real person first.
