...whatever your cause may be, you probably would like to raise money for expenses like uniforms, trip fees, sports or musical equipment, building funds, operating expenses or trophies ... but bake sales, raffles, and candy bars can bring in only so much.
What you need is a Fast, Easy and, in many cases, Free method to generate the cash your cause requires.
I can teach you how to earn money on the Internet using several Free and Easy methods, and I will in the next section.
But first, some more videos.

OK, So what's the method I'm talking about?
Viral Marketing
Well at least I hope you ask, because otherwise I'm wasting my time typing here.
[Just for the sake of my piece of mind, let's pretend you did ask, OK?]
Viral marketing is developing an advertising campaign that is so clever, interesting, informative or in this case, funny, that everyone will want to share it with their friends, family and co-workers.
You must get them all the time, those e-mail jokes that spread through your office like wildfire, the great new Bean Dip recipe your cousin sent you, or maybe short, funny videos.
Videos like the ones above.
Everybody likes a good laugh, and with the Programs I am about to give you, you can have a page just like the one you are reading out there making money for your cause in as little as a couple of hours.
DONT WORRY!
You will not need to pay a dime to any of the programs I will describe, or to me; nor will you have to join some Multi Level Marketing campaign that pressures you into signing up new members in order to make money.
You will not even have to pay for any advertising, like all the big name websites you are familiar with, because YOU already have a huge advantage over THOSE Guys that I will teach you about in just a minute.

A quick bit of advice from my Legal Department.
Well, it would be ... if I actually HAD a Legal Department.
If you want to help one of the big charity causes, just give them money. Those names are closely guarded, since fraud is so very easy to accomplish online.
You also need to consider other legalities, such as who will be in charge of the proceeds, what bank account and other information will be used, and who has final say in the type programs you will join and promote.
The point is: Just make sure you are not in a position to be fired, sued or arrested for your attempt to help a cause.
If your group is large enough to have legal counsel, clear it through them before you start following my program in their name.

Your Special Advantage
That advantage is the relationship you already have with the other members of the group you are trying to raise money for. Your fellow group members, their friends and family already know you, or at least the organization you are trying to help.
They trust you, and they will want to help you and the cause.
Advertising is all about building relationships, convincing complete strangers to buy a product or service based on their perceptions of the person or company that is trying to sell to them.
I don't have exact figures, but I'm sure millions of dollars are spent every year to build these perceptions and relationships.
Your advantage means that you will never have to spend a single dollar for advertising. You and your cause are already known to your target audience, because they are all members just like you, or at least have friends or relatives that are.
All you need to do is read the rest of this report, join the Free programs I outline, and send an e-mail to your group members, so they know where the programs are located on the web.
Remember that bit about Viral Marketing awhile back?
This is where that concept starts to pay off; if your group likes what you have made, they will send e-mails to their friends and family, who will do the same ... And so on, and so on ...

The Starting Point- Squidoo
Or as I prefer to call it, Program Zero
get it for free, you are reading it right now. at the bottom of this section, I will give the link you need to sign up as a Squidoo Lensmaster.
NOW DON'T PANIC!!
This is the easiest way to make a webpage I have ever used, and I have used well over 5 different site building tools in my long career.
[OK, so 5 isn't really a lot; my point is, this really is easier than it sounds, so calm down.]
The site building tools are really easy to use, and are organized into modules. Many of these modules you can see on this site, like the Amazon and Netflix sections; and each block of text you see is a separate module as well.
Many of these modules are advertising for other sites, like Amazon.
If anyone buys the products that display on your site, you get a commission for the sale.
Now, for an extra added bonus you should really like. I said Squidoo is both free and easy to use, and it is. But Squidoo, unlike any other free website provider I have ever dealt with, actually pays you a percentage of the advertising that they make from the traffic that visits your site, or Lens as they are called in Squidoo.
They give most of the profit they make to their favorite charities, keep a small percentage for the business, and the rest is split between the lens owners as Royalties.
If you sign up with the link below and make a working lens you will be entitled to a cut of these royalties, just like that.
Also, when your lens first makes $15.00 in royalties, they give you a $5.00 bonus, and the person who referred you gets $5.00 as well.
This is another reason that Squidoo is the right place for you to set up shop, because you can ask your group members to make Lenses of their own, and once they make $15.00, you will get the $5.00 bonus.
All of that is really good news, but the most important feature as far as we are concerned, is the You Tube Module; that is where you get the Videos you need to make your page interesting enough to be shared with friends and family.
To get started, just click here.
Take a little time to read their help files, and get comfortable, then pick the other programs that suit your cause, and at the end I will show you how to pull it all together.
The Free Programs.
These programs all give you free, pre-made and professionally designed websites. They also take care of all the payment processing, delivery and any customer service needed to complete the sale.
Once you sign up with them, all you have to do is add a link and description to your Squidoo Lens, send an e-amil asking your group to visit it, and of course, cash the commission checks as they come in.
The first link shows you step by step how to build your first lens.
