    Smart MediasVision of the Future

    By doing so, we believe that Smart Media

    will become one o the great Fortune 500

    companies in the technology marketplace

    and a company whose members are able

    to make a real, proound dierence, both in

    their own lives and in the lives o others.

    Many companies try to do some o what we are

    doing, but most o them ail within the rst 6 months

    to a year.

    Smart Media was ounded in 2008 and is expanding

    more rapidly than ever beore.

    Few companies can consistently deliver on their

    promises, but Smart Media has a track record

    o under promising and over delivering in both

    technology and value.

    In a volatile world where change is the onlyconstant, we all know that the really important

    things stay the same and the rest constantly needinnovation to improve.

    Here are Four things that Smart Media willnot change:

    Sharing: Smart Media will remain a technology

    company that shares its success

    Innovation: Smart Media will continue to innovate,

    giving average people the chance or a better lie

    Vision or a Better World:Smart Media will always

    work to make the world a better place or humans

    Viral Expansion: Continuing to Virally Expand

    Several things Smart Media will changeover the next decade:

    Social Community: A Home Page social community

    o hundreds o millions

    Education & Entertainment: Millions participating

    in a unique synthesis o education and

    entertainment

    Causes:There will be millions more in the Smart

    Media community helping those who cannot help

    themselves

    Branding:There will be incredible new ways to help

    small businesses succeed and brand themselves

    Mobile:The Smart Media App will be on millions o

    smartphones & tablets

    Middle Class: A thriving global middle class that has

    been strengthened by Smart Medias eorts to helpthose who will help themselves

    Smart Medias Vision o the Future is to have hundreds o millionso people around the world participating in our Fun, Educational,

    Collaborative social community that is designed to generatenumerous streams o prots automatically or its members.

    Smart Media will also revolutionise the way that people can give back

    to the world and make the world a better place.

    Sharing: Smart Media is the only technologycompany that reely shares its revenues and it is

    currently developing new ways to increase the

    revenue streams to its membership. Imagine i youhad been able to earn revenue rom one o the great

    Fortune 500 technology companies when it was just

    starting. Where would you be today, nancially?

    Automated Prot: Aunique system that puts

    prot into the pocket o its

    paid members, when they

    are awake and when they

    are sleeping, is undergoing

    constant upgrades.

    Middle Class:The SmartMedia system is already

    improving the opportunities

    available to the middle class

    to support them in securing

    the liestyle they desire.

    Innovation: From HomePage Pays to unique

    proprietary games to new

    educational paradigms, Smart

    Media is committed to constant innovation.

    Education & Entertainment: Beginning withgreat educational and training videos and now

    breaking ground in the edutainment arena, Smart

    Media is demonstrating leadership in every way.

    Unique, custom Smart Media games that dene

    healthy edutainment or all ages, driving true global

    sustainability.

    Causes:Beginning with direct donations as a % orevenue and then partnering with charities and Not-

    or-Prot organisations, Smart Media is taking action

    to make the world a better place. More than that, we

    are using technology to directly impact the global

    education crisis and the middle class that is declining

    in many parts o the world.

    Branding:With the highest impact at the lowestprices, Smart Media is bringing the latest advertising

    and marketing technologies to support business

    persons (especially small business) everywhere. This

    program is being expanded even as this issue is

    published. Look or great innovations in this area.

    Social Community:The Smart Media SocialCommunity is all about two things; personalisation

    and sharing. The hub or all o this activity is Home

    Page Pays. HPP 2.0 (complete article elsewhere in thismagazine) is where your personalised avatar lives

    in its virtual home; a place where you saely share

    through Smart Mail, Smart Chats, Smart Chirps and

    more; a place where your riends

    are easy to identiy and connect

    with; a place where you can share

    your concern or world causes

    together, play games together,

    learn together and spend your

    Smart Points together.

    Social Awareness:In thehectic, on-the-go world we live

    in, it is easy to zoom through

    every day without really knowing

    what is happening around you

    and where you can make a

    dierence. Smart Medias current

    commitment to making the world

    a better place includes elements

    that are designed to captureattention and encourage the

    members o our community to take a deeper look at

    the good they can do and then show them actions

    they can take. Members o the community will notice

    the pervasiveness o social responsibility and social

    awareness in everything we do.

    Smart Points: A unique rewardsystem or all members o the

    Smart Media Community. These

    points not only have both real-world value in the Smart Media

    Store and supporting charities,

    but in the virtual worlds where

    they can be exchanged or

    advantages in your virtual liestyle.

    Friendly Competition: Finding that ne linethat allows competition without anyone eeling

    like a loser has been the challenge or decades. It

    is recognized that games would be able to create a

    greater sense o community when this is achieved.Smart Media is closing the gap on this elusive goal

    in its proprietary, exclusive games. Not only will

    mastering the concept o Friendly Competition

    increase the attractiveness and replay value o a

    It all revolves around creating a better lie or you,

    your amily and riends. Help us to create a better

    world and to make a dierence that will continue on

    ater each o us has let this lie.

    Envision this massive community united in

    contributing to a better world through our new

    paradigm in education, entertainment and causes.

    Over the next decade, millions will have been served

    and given a chance at a better uture including:

    game, but it will provide the perect vehicle or

    delivering educational content.

    Free Trial Culture: Our usage o the Internet hascreated a ree culture. This is a culture that does

    not buy until they try. Almost every technology

    product allows the prospective client to either tryor a time period or to use a lite version o their

    product ree. At the same time, the ree version must

    deliver great value or the prospect will not convert

    to make a purchase. Examples o this range rom

    Yahoo, Facebook, Twitter, Google, Skype, Dropbox

    and millions o others. Following the example o

    other technology giants, Smart Media has created

    a personalised launch pad (Home Page Pays) that

    is absolutely ree and can be given away ree

    indenitely. Following the practice o giving away

    massive value in the hopes o conversion to a higher

    level o membership is a numbers game and the

    Smart Media numbers will provide the vehicle to

    achieve all the goals in this article.

    HPP 2.0:The hub and centrepiece that all o theseactivities revolve around is in a constant state o

    intense innovation. I you careully look through the

    eatures in the article on Home Page Pays 2.0, you

    will be amazed at the value this ree product delivers.

    Why does Smart Media invest this level o eort and expense into their products?

    Smart Media may not be able to change everything,but we will make a global dierence. The world will

    be a better place because we were here.We invite you to be a part o ourmission to create a better world.

    Those who could not help themselves - will help themselves

    Those who could help themselves - will be enjoying a better quality of life

    And those who wanted to help others - will be helping others

    Smart Media is ollowing in the ootsteps o

    companies such as Marriott Corporation, Ben

    & Jerrys, Famous Amos (cookies), Yoplait,

    Cheerios, American Express and Apple

    Computer, amongst others in the Do Well by Doing

    Good model (term coined by Bruce Burtch) . Smart

    Media has committed to Cause-based (Cause-related)

    marketing in that eort.

    Cause-based marketing diers rom corporate giving

    and reers to creating co-operative relationships

    between or-prot businesses and charities. These

    partnerships have typically resulted in greater gains or

    both the charity and or the business than either could

    achieve alone.

    The exact models that Smart Media will adopt have not

    yet been nalised, but here are some examples that

    other corporations have used:

    Our vision o the uture is to have a Home Page Payssocial community with hundreds o millions opeople. This true story o what happened or one o our

    Members, when she gave away Home Page Pays, is an

    example o how we will achieve this goal.

    Mariette, who lives in Alberta, Canada, spent most oher working career in the eld o medicine, includingmany years in Arica. She is a caring, giving person, so the

    chance to be part o a company like Smart Media, whereshe is able to give away something as wonderul as Home

    Page Pays to people all around the world, is a dream come

    true.

    Mariette says, I nally have a way to truly help peoplein a meaningul way. Smart Media is not only orhelping people create nancial abundance.... it also helps

    people who need a positive change in their lives by

    spreading compassion, education and prosperity... all that

    is needed or peace, which I am very happy about.

    Mariette gave away the HPP system as a birthday gitto Rosalina, one o her riends on Facebook. Rosalinaregistered and started using the HPP System.

    When Marlette told Rosalina she could earn 25 SmartPoints each time she gave it away, is when theun started. In a couple o days Rosalina had invited an

    additional 127 new Free Members and in turn, received a

    total o 3,175 Smart Points (127 people x 25 Smart Points)!

    Those 127 new members alsoound out about Smart Pointsand they too started giving it

    away. In just over 2 weeks, Mariette

    had over 2,000+ new members...

    amazing!

    It is important to understand thatonly Paid Members can build aFree Member network and get

    paid on the Internet activity o

    Free Members. Free Members are

    rewarded with Smart Points and

    matching prizes when they reer

    other members, however, their Free

    Members roll up to the paid member who, in this story,

    was Mariette.

    It gets even better...

    Mariette and her sponsor, Anita, noticed what washappening and they connected with Rosalina to askher i she would like to upgrade to a Paid Member so that

    she could start building her own Free Member networkand get paid when they used HPP. Rosalina thought that

    was a great idea so she upgraded. In that same 2 week

    period, she had over 400 Free Members o her own and

    also her rst Paid Member.

    Imagine what is going to happen to this group overthe next 6 months. Imagine how many Free and PaidMembers they will have in their network. Mariette gave it

    away to Rosalina and in only 2 weeks she had over 2,000

    Free Members on her rst level, 400 on her second level

    and 2 new Paid Members. She had activated multiple

    income streams by just giving away a valuable git to

    Rosalina on her birthday!

    There are many other stories we could share with you...yet this is only the beginning.

    Now is the time to share the exceptional git o HomePage Pays with the world and make a dierence!

    1-to-1001+True story demonstrating why Home Page Pays is the

    Ultimate List Building System on the Internet

    It is very simple or our Paid Members to build a list bygiving away unlimited value-packed Home Page Pays

    systems or ree and develop a continually expanding

    database through the power o leverage.

    Imagine it when any o your Free Members give away

    HPP, then those people give it away, and so on, everyone

    rolls up into YOUR database! And why wouldnt they

    want to give it away when everyone can receive lietime

    membership o the unique HPP system that has an

    amazing FREE source o Entertainment, Education, Games,

    Social Networking and so much more, including the

    chance to Earn Smart Points and Win Prizes.

    However, what i there was a whole new meaning to

    the saying, The Money is in the List? What i you were

    actually PAID on all your Free Members who access the

    Internet though our HPP system without even changing

    their web browser?! What i you were actually PAID

    commissions when any o those Free Members make

    purchases o Smart Medias in-games and virtual goods?

    And this is just the very tip o the iceberg!

    I you t into any o the ollowing categories, it is likely you

    are looking to expand your client or member base in orderto make or raise money.

    Direct Sales

    Network Marketers, Aliate Marketers, Internet

    Marketers

    People in the Direct Sales industry are always looking or

    ways to build a list o good prospects. By purchasing a

    branding package, they purchase the branding rights to

    give away an unlimited number o ree HPP systems to

    anyone all over the world. Every time those people usetheir computer or the Internet, they see the branding. It

    is the perect git. I t benets the receiver and rewards the

    giver, so everyone wins.

    Read the 1 to 1001+ story to see the power o this system.

    BusinessesFrom the local corner shop to multi-national companies

    Many businesses give away product samples or

    promotional gits that are branded with their company

    logo. This can be extremely costly.

    What i they were able to give away an unlimited number

    o HPP systems and whenever those people use the

    Internet, they see the business owners branding. Even

    better, the people they give it to or ree can give it away

    to others!

    Not only does the business receive top-o-mind

    awareness, they are also able to earn an income whenever

    those Free Members use the Internet.

    Non-Prot Organisations (NPOs) and Fundraisers

    Charities, Religious Organisations, Schools, Sporting

    Clubs, Non-Proft (Health and Other Organisations)

    Smart Media oers a dynamic and unique way to raise

    unds where the organisation WINS and their members

    and supporters WIN!

    NPOs, charities, schools, sporting clubs, religious

    organisations, etc., can earn money simply by giving away

    the amazing HPP system to their members and supporters.

    We have all donated to causes, but bad economic times

    means there is less or no more money to donate. No one

    wins, the supporter eels guilty, the organisations have

    ewer resources and the causes they represent suer.

    What i people were able to support their avourite cause

    by simply doing what they do every day anyway, thus

    providing a constant stream o unds or that cause.

    How can Smart Media pay on all its Free Members?

    Smart Media earns revenue rom advertising. Instead

    o pocketing all that revenue, it has chosen to make a

    dierence in peoples lives all around the world by sharing

    that revenue with its members.

    Our unique promotional branding service oers anyone

    in business (small to large), anyone in the direct sales

    industry or any NPO even more diversity, with a better

    way to promote and brand themselves. They receive

    unsurpassed branding real estate allowing them to

    become more successul with their business or NPO andat the same time creating them another powerul and

    passive income source.

    Home Page Pays adds even more truth to this statement. Why?The Money Is In The List

    There is change inthe wind. A restlesswhispering that will

    no longer tolerate

    educational tyranny

    and mediocrity. Thisrevolutionary unrest

    is dierent rom those

    in the past, because

    you can hear an undertone o the laughter and

    giggling o students learning.

    The last true revolution in education occurredas a result o the Industrial Revolution and theAge o Enlightenment. Our current educational

    system was designed to raise the economic

    standards o an entire people and conceived to

    relieve many o the social ills o the 18th and 19th

    century. It was a revolution in its time, but is a

    poor t or today. Unortunately, we havent had a

    signicant paradigm change since then.

    Our culture, technology, society and childrenhave all changed radically since that time,but our educational system has lagged woeully

    behind. Today, our children learn at the speed o

    the Internet, which is the greatest trend in human

    history. They expect their education to match that

    speed and to be engaging,

    un and content rich.

    Why does there needto be a change soradical that it is termed a

    revolution? Consider this...

    There was a studyon creativity (NASAdeveloped the test - administered to 1600

    children) which demonstrated that 98% o children

    at Kindergarten age are creative geniuses, but as

    they progress through the current educational

    system that percentage drops and drops until at

    age 15 only 12% tested as genius, or the samegroup o children! The same test was administered

    to 280,000 adults and only 2% tested as genius in

    creativity.

    As we ollow their progress, they are not onlyless creative, most have learned to resent orlose interest in school and the learning process.

    Smart Media believes that i we are going to make

    the world a better place, we must start by making

    learning un once again.

    This is ar rom a trivial undertaking but, SmartMedia knows that it takes true commitment

    to make lasting and

    important change in the

    world. What would this

    revolution have to look

    like? This revolution, at a

    minimum, MUST:

    Make learning unagain, putting theexcitement o adventure back into education!

    Encourage Collaboration, Social Sharing andSocial Learning over individual eort.

    B

    e ree on a global basis.

    Be available on numerous platorms, such as

    Windows, Mac and many mobile devices.

    Create interactive adventures that attract,capture and retain the students attention.

    Be relevant with constant innovation. It is said,that by the time a college student nishes adegree today, in any technical subject, their text

    books, educational material and perhaps even

    skills are already outdated and obsolete.

    Provide the undamental skills, such as Reading,Writing and Arithmetic, yet also expand to

    include all o the other

    skills and opportunities

    that a technology-rich

    world can provide,

    without our current

    limitations.

    Overturn thestagnation andtyranny o the status quo. No amount o patching

    will x the current system.

    Allow students (o all ages) to learn as ast asthey are able and not to relegate them witharticial rules, such as age groups, or holding their

    learning back in order to stay in sync with the resto the class.

    Allow learning to occur at any place and at anytime.

    Be immersive! One o the most importantattributes o getting an education at highestpossible speed is or the student to desire and be

    able to immerse themselves in the topic. The more

    immersion, the harder the brain clicks over to tryharder.

    Many people haveasked why SmartMedia ormed a game

    company and why they

    create their own games.

    Now you know one o

    the answers! When you

    entertainment you get Edutainment. Smart Mediais part o the learning revolution.

    Many companies have been successully sellingtheir edutainment materials demonstratingthat there is pent-up demand or these tools. For

    example, did you know that by April o 2012, the

    single Edutainment title, Brain Age: Train Your

    Brain in Minutes a Day, had sold almost 20 million

    units (the game lists at $20/game - see chart)

    Do you know how much Smart Media willbe charging or many o their edutainment

    titles? Zero, nada, zilch,

    nothing or custom

    designed, proessionally

    crated Edutainment

    sotware. Additionally,

    this Edutainment games

    library will be constantly

    expanding. Can there

    be any question o their commitment to the newlearning revolution?

    Every member o Home Page Pays will have reeaccess to many o these amazing learning tools!

    lives.

    Smart Media Games supports this by creating games

    that educate players about

    the important causes around this

    world, raising their level o social

    consciousness. At the same time these

    games encourage (and reward) socially

    and in the real world.

    The third point o the Smart Media Mission is to

    Help those who want to help others be able to do

    so easily.

    The Smart Media Games support this through

    educating the

    player where they can

    make a real dierence

    in the world; locating

    those who are in

    need and can be

    directly helped. This

    is game-play that can

    change the world...or the better.

    Smart Media employs a signicant number o highly

    skilled specialist programmers dedicated to the

    Whether your business is a large industrial rm or a One Person Army (OPA), the principles o growing your business and

    increasing your revenue are the same.

    Marketing/Sales 101

    When you want to build your

    business revenue, you need to ocus

    on our steps:

    1. Lead Capture/List Building

    Without a group o prospects

    that can be converted to clients,

    there is no business revenue and

    no revenue growth.

    2. Top-o-Mind Awareness

    I your prospects are not aware

    o you or your company, then it

    would be pure chance that they

    would ever become clients o

    yours.

    3. Relationship Building

    Every salesperson who has ever had success will tell you that the quality and quantity o your sales depend on your

    ability to create positive relationships.

    4. Creating the Sale

    Once the relationship is built, the prospect will want to know three things:

    a. The benets or value o doing business with you

    b. The eatures and advantages o your product or service over your competitors

    c. And the terms o buying this product and doing business with you

    Once they have decided to make the purchase, you need to have a method o closing the sale and acknowledging

    the purchase. This could be as simple as a handshake or verbal conrmation, clicking a yes link or signing a contract/

    agreement.

    Smart Media oers a unique, leading edge, Advertising and Branding System (SMABS), that dynamically positions you

    and your brand as no other system can.

    ARevolution In Advertising

    What is Top-o-Mind Awareness (TOMA) and why doesevery person in business hunger ater it? Regardlesso whether you are a one-person-army building your

    direct sales or aliate business, or i you are a smallbusiness owner or a corporate executive, TOMA is your

    path to success. Top-o-Mind means that when someone

    thinks about a product or service that you sell, your name

    comes to mind rst. Whether you distribute a health

    related product, an online digital product or manuacture

    widgets, i your audience does not think o you rst, you

    stand no chance to convert them rom a shopper to a

    client (or member).

    A

    dditionally, i someone might be even slightly

    intrigued by an opportunity or purchase, you will

    want them to try yours rst. How is this achieved?

    Traditionally, we would advertise on television, radio and

    billboards and in newspapers. But, what would it take to

    achieve TOMA with each o these and is there a better

    option?

    Lets say that it would only take 20 minutes o showingyour logo, product or service to achieve awareness.Although it is highly unlikely that you could achieve Top-

    o-Mind Awareness with most people in just 20 minutes,lets see what research bears out in this example.

    I you ran your advertising over the next 30 days (tryingto get at least the 20 minutes), what does researchindicate about the length o time each person spends

    exposed to your brand?

    The conclusion is easy. Traditional advertising is highpriced and probably does not deliver the length oimpression required or TOMA. However Smart Media,

    in their digital online advertising, has created a system

    and package or all businesses that delivers the optimumTop-o-Mind Awareness or the smallest cost and risk with

    the maximum ROI. Additionally, business people will want

    to investigate the Smart Media Viral Lead Generation

    System.

    Would you rather pay $40,000 for 20 minutes per monthor a one-time purchase of $400 for 81.5 hours per month?

    How much would just 20 minutes cost us (ignoringhigh production costs)?

    Research shows that the cost o traditional advertising can be100 times that o digital advertising*

    A research comparison o the length o Impression shows thatcan easily be over 200 times more eective or digital online

    advertising*

    * 81.5 hours is an estimate based upon average monthly Internet usage

    Are these our statements true about you?

    I do not earn enough income to be nancially secure.

    I have not accumulated enough money to be nancially secure.

    I am not accumulating enough money to be nancially secure.

    I do not have enough passive cash-fow to be nancially secure.

    And have you given yoursel (and your amily) any o the ollowing reasonsor your ailure to achieve nancial security?

    I dont have the time.

    My boss wont pay me enough.

    I dont have the knowledge or education.

    I dont have the skills.

    Nobody wants to hire me. (Im not marketable, too young, too old, too short, etc)

    I cant see how I could do it other than win the lottery.

    I dont have wealthy relatives who will leave me an inheritance.

    But, i you were really honest wouldnt the real reasons be more like...

    Im unwilling to try.

    Im unwilling to approach my personal and proessional network.

    Im unwilling to work hard.

    I tried and gave up ater setbacks.

    Im unwilling to change my belies about the way money is accumulated.

    Why We Need a Plan B

    We value nancial security! For most o us this is very important and yet not achieved. We do not haveenough nancial security to ensure the liestyle and Quality o Lie that we want now and into theoreseeable uture.

    Basically, our governments, educational institutions and other such organisations have conditioned us towork towards only one source o income, namely the job. There is nothing wrong with this, however, it islimited income and it engenders a limited thinking mentality. We need to actively look at creating other oradditional sources o income that will provide options and encourage unlimited thinking and an unlimitedbelie in what can be done in lie.

    What are the steps you could take today to start moving towards nancial security?

    a. Would you be willing to become a ree member o HomePage Pays?

    b. Would you be willing to join Smart Media as a paid member?

    c. Would you be willing to give away ree HPP memberships to your personal and social network?

    d. Would you be willing to put in 4 hours/week on your own Smart Media business?

    I you answered yes to the above and act now, you have taken a huge step towards being nancially secure.

    Hype vs. Smart Media

    Many companies continually throw

    marketing hype at their members.

    They make big promises about new

    innovations, even though, as so oten

    is the case, the company does not

    have the resources to deliver on those

    promises. In the world o technology,

    inexperienced leaders will typically

    nd themselves over-promising and

    under-delivering. The challenges o

    consistently delivering high qualityresults are insurmountable to them.

    Smart Media takes the opposite

    approach by committing huge

    resources to major projects,

    developing them in silence until

    just the right moment to release an

    announcement.

    Many o the largest and best run

    companies in the world, such

    as Apple and many top Internetcompanies, tend to keep very

    quiet about their progress until the

    moment they release a major update.

    Why do they do this? Because they

    are realistic. This is a proven ormula

    or top technology companies.

    Leading technology companies

    realise the damaging eects o

    prematurely marketing themselves.

    Distinction

    The distinction may seem small at

    rst, but it Is incredibly important and

    oundational to our success. The value

    to Members comes rst.

    It is oten very dicult or us to

    remain low-key because we are

    excited about the changes we create

    and want to share them with our

    Members. For example, in 2012, we

    ocused on a new era and delivered

    major innovations within the Home

    Page Pays system that Members never

    expected and were never promised.

    Creation o a mobile-riendly

    environment is on the horizon,

    but while we have yet to revealour biggest updates, we can share

    some very important operational

    improvements.

    Member Support

    Smart Media has strengthened its

    ability to respond expeditiously to

    Members support questions. The

    Smart Media programming team

    enhanced the support interace

    and improved the entire support

    system. Additionally, we are training

    additional support personnel. The net

    result o these changes is shortened

    response times and improved

    solution eectiveness. Support

    Administrators have improved

    tools, technologies and systems to

    expedite the needs o our Members.

    This includes an evolved priority and

    complexity evaluation system that

    will shorten the speed to solution by

    as much as 1,000%.

    Server Expansion

    Due to the rapid growth o our

    Member database, Smart Media is

    massively expanding its worldwide

    server inrastructure to support

    growth well into the uture. The

    expandability o our systems ensures

    Smart Media a rock-solid technology

    oundation.

    Programming Team

    Fiteen new Programmers are working

    diligently on a secret Smart Media

    project. This will result in a much

    more powerul Home Page Pays. FreeMembers will dramatically increase

    their number o hours on Home Page

    Pays due to this innovation and Paid

    Members will reap the benets. We

    will strategically unveil this and other

    secret projects when they are ready to

    be released.

    Administrative Assistants

    We have added Administrative

    Assistants to our support team who

    are working on many aspects o SmartMedia with certain Leaders and our

    Creative Design and Programming

    Teams. They have become a very

    valuable asset to our team.

    In Summary

    Smart Media is a technology company

    with an opportunity or the masses.

    We will never stop expanding and

    getting better.

    The Direct Sales industry is a 38 Billion dollar industry with over 900,000 businesses. So why does such a

    successul industry struggle so hard at keeping new participants? What scares so many people away who

    could benet rom participating? With most companies, people have paralysing ears that are at the root o the

    problem. O course, everyone wants to be liked and loved, but some people think that the direct sales model

    will make others think badly o them. Many people are araid to approach amily and riends because they ear

    that it will make them uncomortable and that those people will avoid them and think less o them.

    They might think within the Direct Sales model:1. I must try to get them to buy products every time I see them.

    2. I must try to pressure them into joining the business.

    3. I must always talk about my direct sales opportunity at social settings.

    4. Will they see me as a salesperson? Do they cringe when they see me?

    5. I must try to schedule social meetings and then discuss business.

    6. Will they question my motivation?

    1. The ability to give away high value products to anyone, with no cost to them or me.

    2. Products that would provide continuing excitement and value every day, still at no cost.

    3. No pressure on the people I have shared these gifts with to join the business.

    4. The ability for me not to have to personally sell to people who ask about an income opportunity.

    5. The ability for the people who get these free gifts to share them with others, just like they can on

    Facebook, Twitter and some of the other most popular sites in the world.

    6. The excitment of knowing that when these people share your gift with others it will automatically

    expand your network of happy prospects.

    Hello, my name is Carol, I live in Sydney, Australiaand I would like to share a story with you.

    Too many times I have heard people say that theywere burned when trying to make money rombusiness opportunities and they wont try again. It

    then amazes me when they say they have only tried

    with two or three companies. It is like they had the

    dream but because it didnt happen or them, they

    gave up. Did they ever lookat the reasons they may

    not have succeeded? Many

    people will join a company

    and expect miracles to

    happen overnight, even i

    they do absolutely nothing.

    Others really make the eort

    but lack experience.

    When I rst started

    looking at alternative

    incomes as a single mum

    over 2 decades ago, I was

    denitely in the second

    group. I was very hard

    working but initially lacked any support and without

    the luxury o the Internet, ound mysel going

    through a lengthy apprenticeship with one company

    ater another collapsing on me. However, attracted

    by the vision o residual income, I just knew I should

    never give up; one day it would happen or me and

    or riends I was making along the way. In those days

    I had no idea what criteria to look or in a company

    and would have a go at anything.

    Then I ound a terric mentor and a couple oyears later we joined a company that became ourvehicle to enormous success. I had proved to mysel

    that it really COULD happen i you didnt give up on

    the dream!

    When I hear people saying they were burned, Ismile to mysel and am so blessed that givingup never even entered my mind!

    When everyone started using the Internet andbusiness opportunities sprung up online,we all went through another apprenticeship

    and a completely new learning curve. Business

    opportunities came and went. In act, over time, I

    have learned so much more rom the ailures than

    rom the successes, which is why I jumped at the

    opportunity to join Smart Media as it met all my

    criteria that I look or in a company!

    Ialready knew the companyowner, David Martin, and wasaware that he and his team o

    world-class programmers and

    designers developed security

    sotware or the banking

    industry. I knew he was

    creative and innovative, that

    he was working on something

    very special and had theunds to see it through to

    completion; although never

    in my wildest dreams did I

    expect we would be blessed

    with what we are now

    seeing come to ruition. It has me pinching mysel

    wondering i this is all or real Well, yes it is, and

    without a doubt, joining Smart Media was the best

    decision I have ever made!

    Ialso love the act that Smart Media is a technologycompany with a CEO who has chosen to shareits wealth with the world through cause-based

    marketing and educate the world with our ree

    educational libraries and educational games.

    Our diverse line o instantly deliverable virtualproducts oers exceptional value to amarketplace o 2 Billion+ people, because we really

    do have something or everyone who has access to

    the Internet. It is hard to imagine a marketplace like

    that and the timing could not be better beore we

    become a household name!

    NEVER GIVE UP!You never know what is around the corner!

    Sallie rom New Zealandhad been excited about

    other opportunities in the past but says, I can

    assure you, this beats them all. I cant express

    my gratitude enough to the person who sharedSmart Media with me. Initially, it sounded too

    good to be true, however, my gut instinct caused

    me to check it out urther then the light bulb

    went on! Even my husband, who had seen

    me struggling in the past with other ventures,

    was intrigued. It is such a clever concept that is

    structured to benet everyone and is so dierent

    rom anything I have been associated with in the

    past. We agree that Smart Media has been the

    best business decision I have ever made and I

    have no doubt that at last my goals will be met!

    Brian rom Australia believes that what Smart

    Media CEO, David Martin, and his team have

    created is destined to become the greatest

    online ree member program ever, by introducing

    a new dimension to the way o communicating,

    learning and playing online, with everyone a

    winner. He says, Smart Media, through HomePage Pays, is already providing people rom

    all around the world with an opportunity to

    change their nancial uture. By simply giving

    away something o value or ree, a person can

    shit their income paradigm rom a world o

    limitation to a world o unlimited opportunity.

    Accordingly, in addition to being a magnicent

    stand alone opportunity, in my opinion, within

    the next 5 years, Smart Media, through Home

    Page Pays, will become the worlds pre-eminent

    online marketing program or all types obusinesses and not-or-prot organisations.

    My suggestion dont hesitate dont

    procrastinate just get involved.

    The company provides a simple system thatincludes ree online marketing tools to create alarge duplicating network.

    What is also exciting or me is what I am seeinghappen or people who have never beoreseen success in this industry. Here is just one o manystories I could share with you. It is about a long-time

    riend o mine, who just happens to share my name,

    Carol. I am sure Carol wont mind i I share her Smart

    Media success story.

    Ever since I have known Carol, she has tried manybusiness opportunities but was never able toachieve an income rom them. That was until Smart

    Media came into her lie. She is like a dierent person

    and what seemed hard or impossible beore, nowcomes easily to her. She is earning hundreds o

    dollars daily with new Free and Paid Members joining

    her team. People who would never listen beore are

    joining her in Smart Media. She has team members

    who are achieving success. Whats more, she is

    having so much un! What a dierence it can make

    when you have something like Home Page Pays to

    give away.

    Imagine the buzz it gives me that I shared SmartMedia with Carol and she is nally realising her

    dreams.

    Imagine i Carol had given up on those dreamsbecause all those other things she tried had notworked. Instead, she trusted me and had enough

    aith to give it another try. Now she has the chance to

    create a liestyle or hersel that beore seemed out o

    reach.

    This is what I love about what I do and I know

    that I have ound a rock-solid home with Smart

    Media. We oer so much value and or anyone

    looking to create an additional income or looking

    to set themselves up or lie and through our

    participation, we will touch a lot o lives around the

    world. I could not recommend a better place to call

    home.

    Come and join us I promise you will be amazed

    at how much un you will have and how simple itis to achieve your goals!

    Stephen rom AustraliaI have a powerul inner

    sense and know that Smart Media will become a

    household name and Home Page Pays will be the

    most popular social community on the Internet.

    All o my past successes were my apprentiship

    leading me to Smart Media and our CEO David

    Martin. No other company that I have reviewed

    or investigated comes close to what we havewith Smart Media.
