A-1) Click the “log in” link or enter your username and password into the log in box located on the main page. Your username and password is required to enter the Members Area. A green certificate was included with your Software Billions Club Membership Kit which reveals your new Internet web site address for your 250 web sites AND a user name and password that you can use to access our private members only web site. Keep this information in a safe place!
Q-2) I forgot my password. How do I retrieve it?
A-2) There are a couple ways to do this. First we recommend locating the green certificate we included with your package. Unless you have manually changed your password, you can use the one displayed on the green certificate.

If you have tried this and still cannot log-in, please call our Customer Service Department at (503) 521-9217 M-F 8am-5pm PST.
Q-3) Do I Have To Own A Computer To Start?
A-3) No! However, you may decide to obtain one soon. Should you decide you need a computer, you can rent one, or use one at your local library, Kinko’s®, friends, etc. Did you know you can buy a brand-new computer for under $400.00? A company called eMachines sells new computers at low discounted prices and are exactly the same as a Dell® or Sony® computer, just half the cost! However, IT IS NOT MANDATORY to have a computer with this program. You don’t need a computer to advertise your web site. Just because your web site is online does not mean you have to limit yourself to only online advertising. Try marketing your web site locally too! Visit the Members Area for more information.
Q-4) When Can I Start Selling The eBooks and CD-ROMs?
A-4) You can start selling the eBooks and CD-ROMs today! Simply choose a marketing method of your choice to begin. Your Online Bookstore featuring 250 FREE WEB SITES are all online right now ready to help you sell the eBooks. To help you get started quickly, we’ve already provided you with voice mail scripts, prewritten classified ads, colorful sales brochures, a listing of OVER 70 Marketing Methods and a directory of companies that can help you advertise and much, much more! Quick Start Instructions begin on page 24 and in Chapter 5 of your manual. You may also want to refer to the “Software Billions Club Resources CD-ROM.”
Q-5) What Price Can I Sell The Software For?
A-5) You can sell your eBooks and CD-ROMs for whatever price you want! There are no selling restrictions! You can run specials, discounts, promotions, create coupons, etc! The sky’s the limit! We have tested the market and determined $49.95 most profitable for CD-ROMs and
$19.95 for eBooks.
Q-6) How Much Money Can I Make?
A-6) The amount of money one can make is solely dependent upon how many methods, funds, time and effort you are willing to invest into your new business. By law, we cannot tell you an exact amount that you will make. We can mention that if you accomplish the above, you have the same opportunity to make as much money as anyone else… maybe more!
Q-7) How will I know when an order has been placed?
A-7) Click Here for detailed pictured instructions. The answer to this question depends on how you are accepting orders. If you are accepting orders by mail, you will receive the order by mail. If you are accepting orders by phone you would need to check your voicemail or contact your order taking service, etc. If you are accepting orders by fax, they will be faxed to you and so on. If you are accepting payments online through PayPal, you will receive an e-mail from PayPal confirming the order.
Q-8) How much do the CDs cost me?
A-8) You are not required to purchase any CD-ROM’s up front. You can simply purchase them AFTER you sell them. SILVER LEVEL Members pay $10.00 per CD-ROM while GOLD LEVEL Members pay $5.00 per CD and PLATINUM LEVEL Members pay an incredibly low $0.75 cents per CD-ROM. It doesn’t matter which title you order, or how many quantities you order (unless the quantities are over 100+ and then we will give you a price break.) Anything you can sell the CD-ROM’s for over your cost is ALL PROFIT. That means you have the flexibility to run your own sales, specials, discounts, etc. The only exception to this rule is that you cannot sell the CDs wholesale unless you own a Duplication License to our CD-ROM titles. By acquiring a Duplication License to our CD’s, you can sell the CD’s wholesale and purchase them direct from us for $0.75 cents each shrink-wrapped and ready to sell, or you can copy them yourself or even have them manufactured independently. Learn more by clicking here.
Q-9) What is the difference between the Silver, Gold and Platinum Membership levels?
A-9) Each level of membership has its own set of benefits. Click Here for a quick overview of our three membership levels. When you upgrade you get that levels set of benefits PLUS all of the benefits of the levels below it. For example, if you upgrade to a Platinum Level Membership you automatically get all of the benefits of being a Silver and Gold Level member in addition to your Platinum Level benefits each and every month.
Your membership level also determines the amount you are paid in commissions for affiliate sales you generate through your online bookstore. Silver Level Members receive up to $500 in commission per affiliate sale, Gold Level Members earn up to $1,000 in commission per affiliate sale and Platinum Level Members can receive up to $2,000 in commission per sale.
The wholesale price you pay for CD-ROMs also varies by membership level. Platinum Level offers members the ability to own the Instant Authoring License to our eBook titles and the Reprint and Duplication Rights to our CD-ROM titles allowing you to duplicate an unlimited quantity of CDs for as little as $0.75 cents each. Our most popular option is the Gold Level Membership which allows you to sell ALL 250 eBooks and ALL 12 of our in-demand CD-ROM titles on the Internet. Click Here to learn more about our exciting options you can use to upgrade your membership today.
Q-10) Why Are There So Many “Options” Available In The Manual?
A-10) Unlike most so called “opportunities” available, we provide our members with a real opportunity that is truly unlimited. We offer all of the various options so that members can take this opportunity as far as they want to go. You must understand that all members can start at the beginning. However, many people have different financial dispositions and may want to start at an advanced level. If you choose not to start at an advanced level, that’s okay, simply begin with what is already included in the materials (that’s all you need) and then you can quickly work your way up to the level of your choice. (Comparison Guide)
Q-11) Can I Order Just One Copy of “The Greatest Computer Games CD-ROM”?
A-11) Yes! You can order one copy (or more) of any CD-ROM to have it drop shipped to your customer(s). Click Here for the Drop Shipping Submission Form. Please do not drop ship orders to yourself. For your own personal use, we highly recommend purchasing the CD-ROM Sampler Pack which contains one “full-version” copy of each CD-ROM (12 CD’s total). See page 168 of your manual to order yours!
Q-12) Can I Order Just One CD-ROM At Wholesale Cost?
A-12) No. The minimum wholesale order is 5 CD’s. For example, you can mix titles by ordering one copy of five individual CD-ROM titles by using the Wholesale CD-ROM Order Form. You can click here to print out our mail / fax in form or also order online via our “Members Only” web site at www.SoftwareBillionsClub.com.
Q-13) How Can I Get A Sample Copy Of Each CD-ROM?
A-13) You will find a CD-ROM Sampler Pack order form on page 168 of your manual. The “Sampler Pack” is limited to one per member. The cost has been drastically discounted to only $47.95 and contains one “full-version” copy of each CD-ROM (includes 12 CD’s total).
Q-14) Why are the “wholesale orders” non-cancelable / refundable?
A-14) We must pay in advance for these items from the vendors that produce them. Once an order is placed, it is considered “produced.” It is the industry standard for not only our vendors, but all vendors of this nature not to refund moneys on these items. In turn, we too could not be reimbursed. However, should any of the above items be received in “non-marketable” or “defective” condition, we would be able to replace that particular item through even exchange. All other N.H.B.C. products come with a full 30 day money-back guarantee.
Q-15) Do You Have Any Other Products That I Can Buy or Sell?
A-15) Yes! We currently offer a SUPER COMBO INTERNET MEGA WEB MALL which is set up to sell all 250 eBooks PLUS our entire product line of hot selling CD-ROMs TO THE 975+ MILLION ONLINE SHOPPERS WORLDWIDE. We also offer an INSTANT AUTHORING LICENSE to our COLLECTION of IN-DEMAND software products that includes ALL 250 eBooks and 12 CD titles that you can stick your name on and call yourself the author without writing a single word or even touching a computer. If these packages appeals to you, please call us at (503) 521-9217 and we will gladly help you.
Q-16) Does Your Company Have Products Planned For The Future or Is This It?
A-16) Absolutely! We are continually working with the greatest minds in the industry and developing cutting edge exclusive software products for our Members to sell. You will be informed of the latest breakthroughs as they happen. Rest assured they will be thoroughly tested and ready for you to sell at just the right time. For secrecy sake, that’s all we can disclose at this time.
Q-17) Is The Software Market Saturated?
A-17) No! Software is selling now like never before and sales continue to escalate unlike any other product of its kind. Computers are rapidly outselling TVs. Regardless of how many people get involved, sales can only continue to skyrocket due to ever increasing public awareness and a constant population explosion.
Q-18) Why do people buy eBooks?
A-18) eBooks can provide very useful information just like a book you find in a library and since eBooks are electronic, you can distribute them more easily. Your customer doesn’t have to spend hours searching for a book, doesn’t pay for shipping, and gets his/her eBook immediately rather than having to wait in long lines, or even having to wait for the book to arrive in the mail. It doesn’t cost any money to send eBooks via e-mail plus you can make an unlimited number of copies which allows you to make 100% of the profit after the initial sale.

Q-19) Will My Customers Know I Am A Member of the Software Billions Club?
A-19) No. We do not sell our CD-ROMs to the general public. As a Distributor, you do. To your advantage, our products and sales literature does not mention our company. Simply use our sales materials contained on the Software Billions Club Resources CD-ROM and insert whatever information you want (price, content etc.)
Q-20) How Much Money Have Other Members Made?
A-20) Some are making larger amounts of money than others. However, there is not an “across the board” answer for all participants as results vary between individuals in terms of time, effort, funds and methods used.
Q-21) How Long Has This Club Been In Existence and How Many Members Are There?
A-21) This club is fairly new and still has a lot of room to grow. I can’t give you an exact number of current Members, as that information is constantly changing. Regardless of how many people get involved, the software market currently generates $500,000,000 per month.
THAT’S FIVE HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS! There’s plenty of money to go around!
Q-22) Does The Presence of Other Persons Web sites or Similar Ad Placements Affect My Business?
A-22) Yes, but in very positive way. Whether other ads or web sites are present or not, it really doesn’t matter. However, when there are other ads or sites that are similar to your own in the same given space or near proximity, it adds strong credibility to the offer. Therefore, don’t be concerned in the least bit if you do see that happen, your slice of the “pie” can still be substantial.
Q-23) Can I Will This Business To A Family Member If Something Should Happen To Me?
A-23) Yes. In case of your unfortunate demise, you can will this business to whomever you choose. All that we would require is that you send us an original signed, notarized letter that expresses your intentions and to whom this business should be relinquished. All legal concerns should be discussed with an attorney.
Q-24) Does The S.B.C. Extend “In-House” Credit for Purchases?
A-24) Not initially. However, we may review your account activity and history after six months for consideration.
Q-25) Why do I have to offer a refund on my CD-ROMs?
A-25) It is recommended that you offer a refund when selling to the end consumer. This is done so as to increase the likelihood of obtaining an order and makes the prospective consumer feel more comfortable in their buying decision. The amount of refunds requested from end-users is typically very small, if any. All of our software products have a very high-perceived value. Because of the fact that you do offer a refund, the amount of orders you may receive in relation to refunds requested makes the refund equation insignificant overall. As an industry-wide practice, opened software and eBooks are non-refundable.
Q-26) What is the commission for members?
A-26) Your membership level determines the amount you are paid in commissions for affiliate sales that you generate through your online bookstore featuring your 250 Free web sites. Silver Level Members receive up to $500 in commission per affiliate sale, Gold Level Members earn up to $1,000 in commission per affiliate sale and our Platinum Level Members can receive up to $2,000 in commission per sale.
Q-27) When do you pay commissions?
A-27) Commissions are paid on a monthly basis, 100 days after the initial sale by check and will be mailed to the address you have on file inside the Members Area. You can update your address, plus check the commission pay outs owed to you and more by logging into the Members Area and clicking on the “View Affiliate Information” link.
Q-28) When I sell a CD, am I assured that it will not be copied and returned?
A-28) No. That’s the risk any company takes in the CD retail business, but very seldom happens. Most companies have a return policy, which prevents opened software from being returned. When selling our products, you are welcome to use and enforce your own return policy. See question # 25.
Q-29) What are the requirements to use the eBooks on my computer?
A-29) The eBooks are published in Adobe PDF format. Adobe PDF is the global standard for trusted distribution and viewing of information. Adobe Acrobat Reader 7 or higher is required to view the eBooks and is available for FREE download at www.adobe.com and comes included as a FREE bonus on all of our CD-ROM titles.
Adobe Acrobat Reader allows your customers to view your eBooks on all operating systems including Microsoft Windows, Apple’s Macintosh and Linux. That means anyone worldwide with virtually any computer can buy and use your eBooks.
Q-30) What are the requirements to run the CD-ROMs?
A-30) The CD-ROMs require an Intel Pentium II Processor or higher, Windows 98 SE / ME / 2000 / XP / Vista, 256 MB or more of free available system RAM, 1024x768 32-bit color display or better, CD-ROM drive and (optional) Internet connection to run. The CD-ROM products are operational with Parallels on the Apple® Macintosh platform. Click Here to view the latest system requirements information.
Q-31) Where and what do I type in order to run the CD on my computer?
A-31) When you insert the CD into the CD-ROM drive, the “auto-run” screen pops up, just follow the on-screen instructions to begin using the CD. If this does not happen, consult the individual CD-ROM’s “READ ME” file or Help file for more information. Detailed instructions for starting the CD also appear on the inside of the CD-ROM cover. Support is also available by clicking here.
Q-32) Someone told me that I can get these CD-ROMs for free on the Internet, is that true?
A-32) No. However, keep in mind that the CD-ROM market is a multi-billion dollar industry. Understanding that, it is possible to find some type of “free disc” on the Internet. Those “free discs” are never “free,” there’s always a catch and you will soon be bombarded with those “catches” if you accept them. If you have found our exact discs on the Internet which are available “for free,” it could be that someone is willing to give away one of our discs if the customer buys one or more. Kind of a “buy one-get one free” offer. We have not yet seen that. However, if you know of the specifics, please let us know so that we may investigate it.
Q-33) How Have You Become Recognized as the “Watch-Dog” of the Income Opportunity Industry?
A-33) We’ve performed validity testing on every income opportunity we could get our hands on for over a decade. We know what works and what doesn’t! Nothing compares to selling eBooks and CD-ROMS.
Q-34) How Can I Get Started With What Is Already Included In The Initial Package At Low-To-No Cost Without Spending All That Money On The Options?
A-34) We’ve provided you with prewritten press releases, classified ads, voicemail scripts, sales brochures and sales letters that sell each of the CD-ROMs. All you need to do is input your name or business information on them and start using them. You can also create your own brochures or flyers and place them on bulletin boards, college campuses, laundry rooms, post office or anywhere that people gather. You may also take your discs to the flea-markets / swap-meets, fairs, public events, fund-raisers or computer shows and so on.

Q-35) How Do I Place This System On “Auto-Pilot” And What Does That Term Mean?
A-35) The term “auto-pilot” is slang for accomplishing this business in a “hands-free” or minimal time / effort requirement on your behalf. This is accomplished by hiring other persons and/or using technology to do the bulk (if not all) of your “work.” All of our materials can do the job of prospecting/selling for you.
However, you must send out the offers, place the ads, receive payment and fulfill the orders yourself. If you would like to contract with an order processing and fulfillment center, you may want to enlist the services of Answer Xact at 1-877-733-4610. They can take phone calls, accept and process orders, and even forward a transaction report to you! Click Here to learn about our FREE Drop Shipping Service.
Q-36) Can I photocopy the materials, manual or anything else from the N.H.B.C.?
A-36) The ONLY materials you have permission to duplicate are our order forms, the sales materials (on the enclosed Software Billions Club Resources CD-ROM), the 250 FREE Bonus Gifts (on the enclosed 250 FREE Bonus Gifts CD-ROM), sales materials available online at www.SoftwareBillionsClub.com and the sales materials found (classified ads, press releases, sales letters, voice mail scripts and sales brochures) in Chapter 5 of your manual. You may NOT photocopy or reproduce any other materials without expressed written permission from our Corporate Office in Portland, Oregon. Click Here to obtain permission.
Q-37) Can I Talk To One of Your Current Members or Someone In My Area?
A-37) We have adopted a “confidentiality clause” which protects the privacy of our members and we will not give out their personal information. This allows our successful Members to focus on making sales and making the most productive use of their time. Our experienced Customer Service Representatives are available (M-F 8am-5pm PST) to help you any way they can.
