My Agloco Rant - I am a "hustler"?

So I received an email today from an individual who labeled me a "hustler". The reason for this was due to my posting on a popular website a little blurb about Agloco using just some tidbits of information to tantalize those, reading it, into sending me an email looking for more Agloco information. Now I know from reading the rules of this site I was not supposed to post anything about MLM or referral based businesses. In my own little way I thought hey I’ll just post those little bits of information to spark interest and not mention Agloco in my post and besides Agloco is not an MLM scheme right? So what is the harm?

Now here is my pondering thought for today: How can one label someone a "hustler" when the only thing I posted was just enough information to get someone to respond so I could send them to my website at http://www.agloco-planet.com/? I want everyone to be a part of this incredible opportunity. I understand what this person was getting at but when you offer someone something for FREE like the opportunity to join Agloco, how can you be labeled a "hustler"? I looked up the word "hustler" and this is what I found:

v.intr.

To push or force one's way. To act aggressively, especially in business dealings.

Slang.:

To obtain something by deceitful or illicit means; practice theft or swindling.
To misrepresent one's ability in order to deceive someone, especially in gambling.

This is the one that caught my attention:

An illicit or unethical way of doing business or obtaining money; a fraud or deceit:

Ok so my ad said nothing about Agloco but my purpose for the ad wasn't to put Agloco in someone’s face or break some rule, it was simply to tantalize to excite, to get people interested, that is it. This person’s response was correct in some ways but as far as being "unethical" or "illicit" this simply was not the case. I think the use of the word “hustler” was a bit harsh to say the least. That word has such a bad ring to it. How is it possible I could be labeled one? All I wanted was to give others the opportunity to be a part of the next BIG Internet wave.

So you are probably wondering why I am talking about this, well because all day I thought about this persons response to something they could get for FREE. I thought about this persons response to the once-in-a-lifetime chance to be a part of a totally incredible opportunity. I was in no way trying to swindle someone out of their money since Agloco is FREE to join. I asked for no money in my ad but I did mention they "could" make some money depending on how hard they worked at it. Which by the way is an activity that one must partake in no matter what venture they tackle. I work my butt off daily at my job to make money. If I sit around I starve. So I did not lie in my ad. I told the truth about the opportunity.

Now back to getting something for FREE. Agloco is totally FREE to sign up with. Agloco asks you the user who signs up with them for no money none, nada, zip, zilch. How can I be a "hustler" if I am asking for no money? Now Agloco does ask for something and that is when the Agloco Viewbar is finally out of beta testing and made available for public download and use, you install it. How hard is that to do?

This brings me to this question, how many of you out there in the BIG BUSINESS MAKING ALL THE MONEY AND GIVING NOTHING BACK TO ITS USERS Internet Land have downloaded the GoogleTool Bar, or the Yahoo Tool Bar or any other Toolbar? How many of you have subscribed to sites like YouTube or MySpace? Myself personally, I have downloaded all the toolbars and subscribed to most of the so called “friends” sites. I even signed up with YouTube even though I have not posted any videos. Now I know I am not the only one on the Internet to do this.

We don’t seem to have any problem loading toolbars, programs or subscribing to every “friends” site there is…why is that? I believe the answer is simply, because we can. Do we give a whole lot of thought to doing this? I don’t. So why is signing up with a company that could be the Internet’s Greatest New Company such a big deal? After all they only want you to install a Viewbar, this small unobtrusive search bar just like the one you use now with a few modifications. In case you don’t know about the Agloco Viewbar here is the short and sweet description of what it is.

The Viewbar™ is a small toolbar that rests on the bottom of your screen or browser window while you surf the Internet. The Viewbar™ software is what enables AGLOCO to collect the money you are earning while browsing the Internet.
The Viewbar™ keeps track of your online interests and preferences, and uses that information to deliver the most valuable message to you at the right time. Because privacy is a core principle of AGLOCO, the Viewbar™ communicates with our secure servers in an encrypted fashion to keep your information private.

Some people have asked: “Is the Viewbar™ some kind of ‘spyware’?” The answer is simple: The Viewbar™ is the opposite of spyware. Spyware sneaks onto your computer without your knowledge or permission, it steals your private information, and it’s nearly impossible to remove. Unlike spyware, the Viewbar™ is completely permission based, it keeps your information private, and you can always turn it off with a single click.

Some other features of this money making piece of software are:

Search (which lets us get you money from search engine companies)
Contextual ads (which lets us get you money from advertisers)
Anti-fraud and other software utilities (which lets us get you money from software companies)

Can your Google Toolbar do that? So why not just load the Viewbar when it becomes available, start making money to use it, get others to use it and make more money?

If someone told you Google was going to start paying you to use its Toolbar would you turn up your nose at that opportunity?

Now come on people Agloco is saying to you, we want to pay you to use our Viewbar. We want to pay our community for their site building efforts by signing up with our company Agloco and being an actual owner of the next Internet Phenomenon! Can you really turn this request down?

What would you have thought when you first heard about YouTube being the next BIG Internet Phenomenon? I WOULD HAVE INVESTED IN THEM WITHOUT A MINUTE OF WASTED TIME and probably anyone reading this would agree with me YouTube has and will be a huge money cow for someone. If someone would have told you, YouTube, a company that came online on February 15th 2005 and is all of not even 2 years old and just sold for 1.65 billion dollars was going to be such a huge success wouldn’t you have invested in them? Did I say YouTube sold for 1.65 BILLION DOLLARS? People that is a 1 followed by 9 zeros!

Can I ask you this question, how much is this company worth in advertising dollar potential? I think the potential for advertising could reach far more than what Google paid for them. Agloco could be if not bigger than YouTube. Their approach to paying back money they receive in advertising dollars to the builders of their company is an incredibly simple idea. The problem with companies today, mainly Internet companies is they take; take and then they take more from those who build their online companies. What would happen if no one ever posted another video on YouTube? Would YouTube be worth anything without the work of those who have made it what it is?

In the physical world I have always wondered how much any company would be worth without its employees? I look at the company I work for and without its employees it would be nothing at all. In the physical world employers have this mentality that they are the boss and their employees are nothing. I don’t get this! If my peers and I walked out my boss would be nothing he would have nothing which I think would be the case with every business.

In the Virtual World companies are somewhat the same. They don’t give much back to those who help build their companies into huge successes. The difference I think between the two worlds is in the Virtual World we the users aren’t really out anything by investing our time in posting our thoughts, our videos and the like on sites like YouTube and Myspace just to name two of the Internets top dogs. What do we the builders of these sites lose? Nothing really but we have something to gain and that is “friends” and an outlet to take us out of the Physical World. Now what do the owners of these sites have to lose if we the user stop adding our content to their websites? I will tell you, BILLIONS OF POTENTIAL ADVERTISING DOLLARS. People it is not the sites that are the money cows it is WE the Internet Users. We are the dollar signs these owners see when they login everyday and see that one more person has signed up to use their site.

Let’s talk about MySpace for a minute because I had this thought and I wanted to express it to you. Do you realize MySpace has over 154,175,990 users? What do you see when you see that figure? I will tell you what I see, a ton of CASH. In the Physical World how much money would a company make if they could get 154,175,990 people to come through their doors each and every day? The figures would be incredible to say the least. Myspace has that many people coming through its doors almost every day. Take those people away and they have nothing but that won’t happen because we will always make Myspace a part of our lives.

I know I have been rambling but the point I am trying to make is WE, you and I are the builders of these companies and we get nothing in return. The owners of these sites make money hand over fist and we get none of it for building their companies. Does this make any sense to you? After I heard about Agloco and their concept everything started making sense to me and the questions I have always asked had finally been answered. I could start making money from my online efforts. I could start making money online and be a part of a company that appreciates its users. Agloco is the wave of the future for Internet Users. It is time people, to be paid for your time and online site building efforts.

The other point I am trying to make is a reply to the person who sent me that email…I am offering you an opportunity to be PAID for your online site building efforts. I am offering an opportunity to be a part of an Internet based company that has finally understood the importance of its users. I am offering an opportunity to be a part of an Internet based company that realizes that without its users they would have nothing and because they understand this they want to give its users something back in return for the efforts the users put forth in building their company.

The simplest way to react to any Agloco advertisement is to JUST SIGN UP and start getting what you deserve, after all you are the Internt Builders and you deserve the credit….well and the cash.

Thanks to anyone who takes the time to read this. I know it is long.

Best Wishes to all....even the person who sent me that email.
