You know, I understand that people are fed up with the customer support delays - and the company is as fed up as we are. They are certainly giving it due importance - and I think that it is not correct to say that they are not.
They have just hired a Finance Executive Office and Assistant, they have hired more customer support staff and accounting staff. They are hiring a Compliance Officer to make sure that we are advertising the right way and not misleading people. And they are also upgrading a new building to move later on to a much needed larger premises.
People do not get trained over night - and the expansion has taken everyone by suprise. The problems will be solved - of that I have no doubt. It is not a internet marketing business run by two computer whizzes in their home offices without any legal status or way of tracing them. It is an offline advertising corporation with an internet product.
This company and its owner have passed investigations made by individuals, lawyers , accountants and authorities alike to date and come up clean, legal and sustainable.
They pay what they owe and have done for quite a long time now.
We will just have to arm ourselves with patience and humour until the support catches up with the expansion. And try to remember that two of the words that relate to AdSurfDaily are INTEGRITY and SUCCESS

I think you have your number crunching a little mixed up and have also forgottten to add into the equation the company revenue from the corporate and other sources, which will also grow.

The Corporate Clients revenues and "other sources" need to keep up with the daily expanding increase of Ad Packages that are re-purchased - if not they will not be able to keep up with the 1%.

I agree with Jenny here.
Unfortunately we are a society that expects "Quick Fixes" to problems...
ASD membership over the past few weeks have DOUBLED...what this means is that the DEMAND for support staff, service, Telephone folks, etc have just DOUBLED over just a matter of weeks.
I don't know of any company that can recruit, interview, hire, train TWICE the amount of Staff in that short amount of time...
It's an unrealistic expectation.

Iggy,
That is so true about getting trained workers in a short amount of time, it just isn't possible.
It is a shame that some people will not stick around and see this through but I definitely am. I am willing to be patient to reap the rewards.

I agree - give the staff time to learn thier jobs and get everything in order. We will profit either way, may have a bit of trouble with getting new people on board with the issues. My recruites just got their money on their accounts today from the Las Vegas rally after sending tickets and a second phone call to the company. The customer service rep KJ was polite and handled everything perfectly in order to get it working for us. A big THANKS to KJ!!
I do have to say that the website does need a new look to it. Right now it looks a bit like a scam.

Does anyone have advise regarding how often you update your cash balance into your ad packages?
Ex: if I have 200.00 in ad packages I am getting 2.00 /day for surfing.
Is it best to wait until this cash balance is up to a certain amount before updating it into the ad packages?
How does it impact the ad package if I were to upgrade daily vs waiting for a higher amount inregards to the ad package running out?
Thanks, Enjoying It All

It would depend on if there is a promotion that you can take advantage of.
For example, the current promotion ASD will give you a bonus of 25% if you upgrade over $500. In this case if you have $200, it will take forever to save your cash balance to get to $500 so it would be best to upgrade daily rather than waiting a few days at a time to upgrade. With daily upgrade you take advantage of Compounding returns.

IF I compound 2.00 daily are my ad packages too small to do much in the long run?
or is it better to wait until I have 10.00 to upgrade?

I am a qualified banker but you don't have to be a rocket scientist to work out on Excel the exponential growth based on a 1% rebate and rolling back in 100% of rebates (not using 80%/20%). I used a model with daily surfing (6% a week) and my initial $5k was doubled by ASD to $10k. Then I have assumed (and have already) 5 people in my direct downline investing $500 each of which I get 10% of what they get and 5 people each from them (almost already achieved) with $500 each invested from which I also get 5% of what they get. It doesn't take too long to get to $1,000,000 in ad packages if you roll weekly profits (sorry, rebates!) back into ad packages. Maybe I am just lucky to have such a downline but I think a lot of people can achieve this and with say only 1,000 out of 60,000 people building up to $1,000,000 ad packs, that means ASD is paying out $240,000,000 in rebates a month! That's a lot of money in anybody's language. If 10,000 get to that level, which is only a matter of another year when you start at $500 and roll all back in, you have rebates amounting to numbers bigger than the national debt of a small country!! $28,800,000,000 to be precise per year and I haven't even included the small guys here!! That's a heck of a revenue. So, if rebates are adjusted, even to 0.1% the numbers are still very large to maintain and the rewards not quite so attractive!

paulthu...it doesn't take much to crumble confidence and lack of confidence causes a run...which causes collapse. Is it really worth ruining the prospects of the masses by nickel and diming over a fee for using a service? Come on, this is America!! Just ask them politely to reveal the facts and I am sure Andy will do so. He seems like a decent enough guy to me!

Hi Nicholas,
I couldnt agree with you more about people using "scared tactics" to cause a run on a company. The sad part about it is the fact that it is so totally unecessary in the case of AdSurfDaily. They have everything in order, apart from their customer service, which has to catch up.
And I dont think that ANY White House incumbant gives awards to online scammers! LOL Whatever their political colour.
And Nicholas - this is The World - not just America! LOL ASD is an international company (you know that small place outside the US! LOL) - the same rules of integrity apply .
I think it is time we all got this into perspective.
I understand people's caution with internet opportunities. Many have been burnt in the past. Sometimes this happens because the companie are fraudulent. Sometimes this happens because of the business inexperience of the owners. AND sometimes it happens because people are very careless about what they join and DONT do their home work into the opportunity they join or read the small print. They join businesses that are obviously illegal or unsustainable or unsuitable for them - thinking that the fact that it is on the internet makes it magic.
Funny -. offline people look into the businesses they join BEFORE they spend their money. Why do they leave their brains in the closet when they join offline businesses.
Before I joined ASD I did my homework. It came up fine. And I continue to update my information. I have spent too long writing about the need for due diigence and how to look for red flags on online businesses to join something that is not straight or unsustainable. It has to do what it says it does, if i am going to promote it!! I have introduced people here and it means I have to look them in the face!!
The beauty of AdSurfDaily is that it is NOT an internet marketing company designed to attract internet marketers. It is an advertising company set up to bring in people from the World Wide Web to help them achieve success and change their lives. Maybe this sounds a little romantic - but it is Andy Bowdoin's vision and he is achieving it for many people already.
Apart from the much publicized millionaires, it is also helping a lot of very normal people to get out of debt, get off disability or unemployment etc etc. And this is not publicity - I personally know people who are doing this and many of you here will also know them.
So knowing that a company isnt perfect - doesnt make it a risk. These are all admin problems, not fundamental business ones. Of course there will always be people who dont like the design of the site - but remember Pablos's comment about Craigs List! Most important - We get to advertise and we get paid!
Jenny

Hi Jenny. You are sadly mistaken. I am from Barbados and if you speak to most Bajans (locals) they will tell you quite emphatically that Barbados is the center of the universe..not America! Joking aside, it took a lot of very convincing people to get me involved in ASD. I am not one to waste money nor waste time on something that cannot give me a good return on my investment. It is due to the fact that I got involved that so many people that know me were impressed (without saying a word) and now I have them in my downline...or will do when they get their admin act together! I am still worried about the long term viability based on the numbers I mentioned in a previous post. Even Google isn't that big. They are going to need in excess of $50 billion a year in revenue to sustain the projected payouts with even a reasonable and pessimistic forecast growth. Alternatively, if rebates are reduced to say 0.1% daily instead (which is a maximum!), then the smaller participants will not be motivated to continue surfing.

Enjoyingitall,
You have to wait until you have 10.00 in your cash balance to upgrade. You cannot upgrade with 2.00.

iggyigette: Personally I am planning to get any cash investment back out before the end of the year so that any profits after that will be purely profits without any risk of your Principal Purchase Money. Not to worry you or anything, but that is exactly how 12dailypro collapsed overnight.

You can upgrade your cash balance into ad packages account any day you have $10 or more in cash balance. So in the beginning, you'll have to wait a few days to accumulate $10 in cash balance, in order to upgrade.
With only $200 in your account, it's best to upgrade whenever you have $10 or more in your cash balance.
Just keep building up your account right now. You'll notice the compounding effect really starts to take off once account reaches $2000.
If you put in $500 or more during promotions, ASD matches you 125% or 50% (depending on the current special), and that's a good strategy for helping your account grow faster.
Space out the new-money-in, so you can space out the eventual "dropoffs" of those amounts once you've been paid back 125% of their value.

I don't know if any of you have ever been affiliated with a company during a phase of momenum growth. I have. When I purchased my first ad packages in ASD end of April/ first week of May, I became a member in the 21,000 group of people to participate. Now, less than 2 months later there are over 54,000 advertisers.
A company can expand and hire within the infrastructure as needed. Andy has so much integrity that I know the company is now trying to hire and train as quickly as possible to cover the customer concerns.
When I was working in a company some 10 years ago that grew quickly, I was on the inside trying to meet the customers' needs...working incredible hours to make that happen.
Bottom line....understand that growing pains do happen in companies that grow quickly. Those that are aware and stick with it through the whole process are the ones who are rewarded.
Meanwhile, ease up on the company's workload by making sure to read all the FAQ's, the terms and conditions and attend the online trainings. This alone will eliminate a lot of unnecessary repetitive issues having to be addressed by new members and free up the company employees to do what they need to do!!
Onward and upward! This company is truly rocking, with integrity!! I believe it is a gift to all that participate!

Do you mean this in a bad way, Nicholas? Do you think it is probable that percentages could get this low, so soon?

I dont believe that I am still reading that ASD and its paystructure and it revenue sources etc etc have anything to do with 12DailyPro. (Quite apart from the fact that ASD have not been so naive as use a processor like Storm Pay, who should also have been indited for some of their actions - like freezing accounts of 12Daily Pro members with OTHER unrelated funds in them too.)
Do you know how many victims of 12 Daily pro have joined ASD because it is so different? Because they have bothered to study it in depth and can see the differences and see the viability.
I dont think this arguement does any more than scare the hell out of people quite unecessarily.
We are receiving about 1% a day now in 2008 and with the additional corporate revenues we will probably be receiving more. We will take longer or shorter times to reach our goals, depending on the percentages.
ASD is not an investment company, it is a very low risk programme run by a very reputable and financially solid corporation.
i wish the "prophets of doom" would spend as much time and energy warning people about some of the highly suspect and non sustainable copycat versions of this programme that are around. Because they may very well dry up and if they do - we wont know where to find the owners, as there are no forwarding addresses on their site!
Now that would really be helping the newbies and innocents out there in cyberland
