Welcome to the VIDEO page, where I'll be updating you with my most recent YouTube videos from my channel (BiggerCashflow.com). The videos are similar to the articles, in that they discuss the Independent Profit Center, the Cashflow Quadrant, and other business/finance issues that I consider important to this page.
While the videos do contain important content, definitely make sure to read the articles as well, since the articles are much richer in details and information.
And, of course, if you have any questions about any of these subjects or about getting involved in your own IPC business, feel free to contact me on my cell at (719) 487-4710
Note: IPC is a FRAUD
I have determined that doing business with the Independent Profit Center is unethical for a number of reasons, and have decided to end my involvement with the company. I have left this site and its articles and videos up for two reasons:
The articles and videos I made go over more than just IPC, and are still useful and informative about business and the mindsets and skills necessary to achieve financial freedom.
Any web traffic I am generating here will help expose the truth about IPC.
I have determined that the Independent Profit Center is not a legitimate network marketing system, but is an illegal pyramid scheme. (I say illegal because pyramid schemes are illegal in the US and many other countries.)
For a network marketing business system to be legitimate (and I totally support legitimate MLM's--they're great ways to learn business), it has to offer a real, substantial product. The Independent Profit Center's 'product' is a bundle of ebooks and software used for internet marketing. In actuality, the ebooks and software is a bunch of useless junk hacked together by a collection of internet marketing scammers. The ebooks are poorly written and riddled with amateurish mistakes, and the programs are useless mini-executables that don't really do much. One of the software products is even imbedded with a Trojan virus.
The 'product' bundle offered by IPC is just a front (a facade) to make it look like a legitimate company by actually having a product, as opposed to a pyramid scheme, which makes money solely on the recruitment of affiliates. And affiliate recruitment is all IPC focuses on.
Another less important point about IPC, but still something to consider, is that IPC, as a product, as a business, is touted to 'sell itself'. The automated, replicated website (like my BiggerCashflow.com) is supposed to do all the selling. The training, and my sponsor, instructed me to just focus on marketing--generating traffic to the site. The site, as offered as a 97% automated, self-selling product*, cannot close the deal. Between the end of Jan 2009 and mid-March 2009, I've gathered a mailing list of over 100 prospects at any point in time (between new signups and unsubscribers), and I've had 21 signups. Not a single signup ever made their payments. The system can't close the deal. And before you think I'm one of those people who are sore with IPC because I refuse to sell, consider this:
Selling the IPC Program (aggressive sales) is discouraged by IPC. The way we're trained to operate the business is to focus solely on marketing, and answer (and follow up on) prospect's phone calls and questions. We're supposed to let the prospects decide for themselves, because only a certain type of mindset will see the value in and do well in this sort of business. Hard sales only result in resentful affiliates and charge-backs.
Well, I held up my end of the business, but IPC could not deliver what it offered.
I will be attempting to get my money back, and I will let you all know how that works out. IPC is not a legitimate MLM, because it has no (real) product (therefore is an illegal pyramid scheme), and will not give you what you are sold and pay for.
* I mention the word 'product' in two different contexts. Don't confuse them. There is 'product' as in what network marketing companies must offer to sell to consumers/customers to make them a legitimate business. There is also 'product' as in IPC offered me the 'product' of their business system that was not as advertised and could not deliver.
01 Intro / Welcome from Eddie Patin - IPC Independent Profit Center
Welcome to my channel, Bigger Cashflow dot com (http://BiggerCashflow.com). Here, I'll be talking about making money online, starting a part time (part-time) business, increasing your cashflow (passive income), finances, financial literacy, and most of all, the IPC program, aka the Independent Profit Center. I hope you enjoy my videos and articles about trying to make fun and easy cash on the internet, and getting out of the rat race.
02 Experience IPC as a Customer - Eddie Patin Independent Profit Center
Regarding the IPC website you're provided with when you join, it's important to experience the website through the eyes of a customer. That is how you know and understand what you're getting. That's also why your job, once you have your own IPC website, is to simply market the website, and NOT to sell.
03a Cashflow Quadrant Part 1 - Eddie Patin Independent Profit Center
My third video. Here is an introduction to Robert Kiyosaki's Famous "Cashflow Quadrant". The Cashflow Quadrant is a very powerful illustration to the different financial mindsets of people and their financial values, approaches to working, and where their income comes from.
(I had to split it into two parts because it went a little over the 10 minute limit, so here's Part 1.)

04 Passive Income with IPC - Eddie Patin Independent Profit Center
Here's a video where I talk about passive income. Passive cashflow. What it is, where you find it, and how you use it to become financially free.
05 DEBT: Good, bad, and IPC - Eddie Patin Independent Profit Center
Debt. The good, the bad, and how I'm using IPC to help. You'll find good debt and bad debt out there. Most of us are burdened with bad debt. You MUST eliminate your bad debt before you can expect to achieve financial freedom. I invested into the IPC Program so that I could channel the passive income that comes from the business into eliminating my credit card debt.
