3 days left in the December Affiliate Contest

There are only 3 days left in our December affiliate contest at Instant Buzz Mastery.

The last couple of weeks have been very interesting as the leadership in the contest has changed 4 times. We also have a new contestant who has shot past several affiliates into 4th place and is working hard to make it to 3rd.

Who will win?

$500 for first
$200 for second
$100 for third
$50 for fourth
$25 for fifth

Currently Kevin Anderson has a big lead on Richard Madison in second. Then comes Mohd Sufian who has been on the leaderboard since the very beginning (and once led the contest.)

Newcomer Joe Golson has shot past Andrew Stark, Janet Legere, and Shelby Carr.

Will Joe be able to catch Mohd Sufian for the $100 third place prize?

Can Richard mount a comeback against Kevin Anderson?

Here are the current standings:
695 – Kevin Anderson
200 – Richard Madison
103 – Mohd Sufian
39 – Joe Golson (NEW to the contest and already in 4th!)
35 – Andrew Stark
25 – Janet Legere
20 – Shelby Carr
14 – Rafael Diaz
11 – Greg Aldrich (another new comer and already on the leaderboard.)
9 – Bob Jenkins (tie)
9 – Mike Filsaime (tie)

Who will win the contest? Will we see any more changes in the leaderboard with only 3 days left?

Remember only the top 5 are guaranteed to win cash.

All other referrals have a chance to win a $299.88 Hit Gusher annual membership.

Still only 103 referrals needed to take home $100

Here are the current standings in our December affiliate/JV contest.

# Refererrals
622 Kevin Anderson
195 Richard Madison
102 Mohd Sufian

Kevin would take home $500
Richard would collect $200
Mohd would cash in with $100

The contest ends December 31 at midnight so there is plenty of time to get in on the contest!

Kevin zooms past Richard into the lead again

With $500 on the line, the competition for the December affiliate contest has been fierce. Last week we had two leadership changes as Kevin passed Mohd Sufian and then Richard Madison passed Kevin Anderson.

I don’t think Kevin liked being in second place!

So today I loaded my email to see a ton of new referrals!

Kevin now has 453 referrals!
Richard has fallen back quite a bit, as he only has 184.

One week left to go in the contest… Who will be the winner?

Will a new affiliate take over?

Richard Madison Passes Kevin Anderson for the lead!

Just a couple of days ago I wrote you to tell you about Kevin Anderson taking the lead in our affiliate contest.

Well guess what? Richard Madison from CBDeluxe ClickBank Mall has just vaulted past Kevin for the lead!

Richard in just one day has 160 referrals (and he made a good bit of money doing so).

That means Richard is in first place for the $500.

Kevin is in second with 125 referrals for the $200 prize. Mohd Sufian is still holding onto third with 102 leads for the $100 prize. The last week of the contest should be pretty interesting as any one of these guys could take the lead!

Will we hear from past winner Mike Filsaime? How about Bob Jenkins!? Bob’s placed 3rd and 2nd and I think he was pretty ticked that he didn’t win the first contest. Will Bob pull out a big last minute marketing push? Or are you all lucky because Bob is in Poland right now… Maybe you’ll get lucky because he might be too busy to send out an email blast…

Who will win?

Only 9 days left in the contest!

New Leader in the Affiliate Contest!

With over $1000 in cash and prizes up for grabs you knew that our December affiliate contest was going to heat up!

This just in: We have a new leader!

Just 8 days ago Kevin Anderson was languishing in 5th place.

Kevin being a smart guy realized a $500 bonus was up for grabs so he went out and did some promotions. Guess what? He went from 10 referrals to 122 referrals in one week! PLUS he made some commissions in upgrades (I know I just sent him some money via Paypal).

Why aren’t you promoting yet?

# Referrals
122 Kevin Anderson – Would win $500!
102 Mohd Sufian – Would win $200
30 Andrew Stark – Would win $100
17 Shelby Carr – Would split $50 & $25
17 Janet Legere – Would split $50 & $25
13 Rafael Diaz
7 Mike Filsaime
6 Bob Jenkins
4 Chris Morris
4 Benjamin Fitts (don’t let me beat you! Just Kidding!)
4 Rusty Kaohelaulii
3 Four People Tied

I know that some of these affiliates are used to winning money. Bob Jenkins and Mike Filsaime have won money in our affiliate contests in the past. I bet these guys will start promoting!

Who will win $500?

It is anyone’s game at this point! Even if you haven’t started promoting now is your chance…

Hi Toni,

Thanks for the email.

Unfortunately this is a common misunderstanding.

I am NOT from Instant Buzz.

I’m just a user like you. I wrote an ebook about how to make the most use out of Instant Buzz but I am not associated with the company in any way.

If you have problems with the program I would uninstall it, download a new install from instant buzz, and try your old login. If that doesn’t work you could try a creating a new login.

If you have problems in Firefox or Mozilla you are not alone. The Instant Buzz toolbar sometimes seems to not work in Firefox, then suddenly it will work for a few days or weeks, then it will stop working again.

BTW the official support site for Instant Buzz is at:
http://www2.instantbuzz.com/helpdesk/kb.cgi

That site should help you get answers to your questions.

I hope this helps!

Urgent Instant Buzz News

URGENT NEWS FROM INSTANT BUZZ

You need to review all your ads ASAP so that they all comply with their terms of service. If your ads are found to violate the TOS they will shutdown your account:

Benjamin, we are deleting hundreds of Instantbuzz.com members today, You may be one.

NOTICE:
Your account may be deleted today at InstantBuzz.com

Hi Benjamin,

4 members of my staff will be spending the the first
4 hours of Monday morning deleting over 7000 members
of InstantBuzz.com

These members will not only be deleted, but we are blocking
the IP address from re joining. And for many, we are
deleting any accounts at any other sites owned by
MikeFilsaime.com that has the same IP address. That include

ListDotCom.com
JV-Network.com
Free-Advertising-Blog.com
and many others…

Your account may be one of these to be deleted.

REASONS

#1 – Some members have more than one account. Several
accounts. They were given Promotion codes and joined
several times. These accounts will be deleted and their
IP will be banned from all sites of Mike Filsaime.

#2 – Ads Against TOS

Many members are abusing our system with ads that they
agree are ok with our TOS but never even read the TOS

We see
- Huge Fonts
- Long Ads
- ALL CAPS
- Over use of Punctuation!!!!!!!!!!!!
- And more (see link below)

ANY Ad that violates what we have here
http://www2.instantbuzz.com/guidelines.php

will have your account deleted and you will be banned
from using or joining InstantBuzz.

If you paid for Elite. There will be no refunds. You
will be deleted.

If you have a huge downline, and your ad violates
or TOS, you will be deleted and you lose your downline.

We will be moving fast and will not be dealing with
any help desk issues if your account is deleted. We will
simply not respond.

We are cleaning house from the members with these huge
ugly ads. Time to get rid of the junk and the people
that just do not care to follow our clear TOS.

We will get back to having clean, non-obtrusive ads
an the bar in 24 hours.

I STRONGLY suggest you review yours ads NOW, and then
read our TOS here:
http://www2.instantbuzz.com/guidelines.php
(You need to be logged in)

…before it is too late. Once we deleted you, you can
no longer join and we are not entertaing and “stories”
that you were not aware. You sign your name to EVERY
Ad you make that you read the TOS.

So if anyone is on vacation, or reads this late, it is
really too bad. Point blank, that member should not have
abused our system in the first place.

This email was more than generous of a warning.

Sincerely,

InstantBuzz Admin
