Is a Rebate Affiliate Marketer legit? Also if this is not legit can anyone give me some legit work at home jobs that won’t take me months of training to learn? And if not I would like to go through medical transcriptioning and would like to know a good legit website to go through to get my degree? And one last thing, does anyone know of any jobs on-line that do not charge you to start them up that isn’t a loopy survey site that takes you in circles? Please Help?
The trouble with rebate affiliate marketing is that it is high-risk.
First of all, many of the programs I’ve seen tell you to do it for merchants with Clickbank. The thing they don’t mention is that rebates are explicitly against Clickbank’s policies. When they catch you at it you lose all your pending earnings.
Other companies may or may not allow it, but you generally have to get special permission.
The other risk is that you may pay out a rebate and then have the customer get a refund, and your affiliate commission goes away. You have to do some very careful tracking and only give rebates after the refund period. Pretty tough when people are likely to want immediate gratification.
Medical transcription can be a very good job, but you do have to pay for your own training. I did it for three years. The Andrews School, M-Tec and Career Step are generally considered to be the top 3 online schools.
As for online jobs, yes, they do exist but there’s a lot of competition. As with any other job you need to consider your skills. You can do customer service if you have a very, very quiet place to work. Most such companies allow no background noise at all. Data entry is a popular option, but there are only a few legit companies, so the jobs are hard to get.
You may also want to consider general transcription. If you have some basic transcription skills already, Tigerfish has an online test you can take, then you just wait for a job to open up if you do well enough on it.
