Peter Riggio Wins $25,000 Harley On Dubli For $4,700

July 19th, 2009

Hello, my name is Peter Riggio and I have something to tell you that I am very excited about, in fact my whole family and friends are excited about. A few months back I was introduced to an entirely new way of thinking, in terms of the way I would purchase products. A friend of mine introduced me to the concept of Reverse Auctions. I have to tell you that when I first heard how they worked I thought, “What a cool idea,” but some of the folks I showed it to didn’t get it. In fact they told me it was a scam! Well, those same people today are Eating Their Words. Not only is it not a scam, but for the first time ever, a person has the ability to purchase products at ridiculous prices and have control over what they are willing to pay. If you think what I’m telling you is too good to be true, then I’ve got a surprise for you.

Here is what I have won in the last months, brand new and shipped to my door. You can go to the site and look at the “completed auctions” for proof that I have indeed won these items.
By the way, those same friends that thought it was a scam are now listed Winners!

A few days ago I won one of the biggest prizes ever given away on Dubli. On the Unique Bid Auction I won $25,000 Brand New 2009, Harley Davidson for $4,700!

I have listed other items that I have won to show not only the value of the site but to give my personal opinion that Dubli is a great place to save money and have fun doing it!

I could list many of my friends that are now winning products off the site, but because I want to keep it personal I won’t. I hope those who find value in the site continue to use it. And for those who don’t use the site I urge you to take another look, not from a business perspective but for the pure saving that this site offers people during our rough economy.

DubLi Merges with MediaNet

MediaNet Group Technologies, Inc. announced today (10/20/09) it has finalized its merger with CG Holdings Limited, a European-based holding company for the DubLi companies. DubLi has become a worldwide online trading firm and will now become one of MediaNet’s wholly-owned subsidiaries. The board of directors at MediaNet will now be controlled by DubLi-nominated directors and the DubLi Chief Executive board will assume similar positions within MediaNet. DubLi’s president and CEO, Michael Hansen, said “We are delighted to be a part of this unique business combination. The uniting of the DubLi and BSP platforms combines two shopping alternatives, both of which are recognized leaders in their respective areas, and offers a one of a kind shopping program unparalleled in the industry. We believe that the business combination offers the doorway to a totally unique method of international shopping and sets the stage for worldwide expansion.” BSP Rewards Inc CEO, Martin Berns, also expressed optimism. According to Berns, “During the past months we have had opportunity to become intimately involved with DubLi’s vision and progress. Their goal of expanding as a world leader in the international shopping and auction market is extremely exciting. It offers a major opportunity for the company and our shareholders. The DubLi auction and shopping platform is exceedingly sophisticated and when combined with our BSP program acts as a loyalty, incentive, continuity and communication tool, with the added capability of being able to load cash, bonus payments, payroll and rewards instantaneously onto virtually any debit or credit card — domestic or international. It truly is a 1+1 equals 3 scenario.” MediaNet Group Technologies Inc has developed the largest online mall and affinity program through its BSP Reward division. BSP has for years formulated customized proprietary loyalty programs for their clients. Organizations enroll their members into these programs while BSP cross-markets them to its vast database. It boasts of over 1000 participating mall merchants which includes the nation’s largest retailers. After factoring in the dozens of online shopping malls, BSP Rewards serves well over 750,000 users. Current mall retailers include household names such as Target, Walmart, Best Buy, Office Depot, Macy’s and Bass Pro Shops. The DubLi Group is a global web-based trading firm headquartered in Limassol, Cyprus. It represents a cutting-edge and dynamic ecommerce platform featuring two globally recognized reverse auctions and a ever-expanding shopping portal. Customers have access to the widest variety of brand-name items at their absolute lowest market prices. DubLi also offers a lucrative business opportunity (DubLi Network) where entrepreneurs around the world can generate passive income by building a loyal customer base of DubLi shoppers. It’s already one of the fastest growing direct sales companies throughout North America and Europe, and has just entered the Australian and New Zealand markets.

Short & Sweet

I see the DubLi Opportunity as having three levels: "Gold" - The serious net worker who wants financial freedom and is willing to put in the time and effort necessary to run his/her own business. "Bronz" - The part timer who only wants a little passive income, but is still willing to put in the initial work.  (Note - Anyone starting as "Bronz" has 30 days to upgrade to "Gold".) "Customer" - The person who wants to save money while shopping on-line and have some fun with the auctions and getting great deals.  Reverse Auction Portals Xpress Auction Unique Bid Auction Shopping Portal In all cases, I will give you 10 free credits to participate in the auctions and get a feel for DubLi, from a customer's perspective.  After all it is the customer who will sustain this business. As for me, I am both a "Gold" participant and a customer. Are you right for DubLi?

Dean Mannheimer: Our Future Is Here

Reprinted from John Cini's blog. More excitement from Dean Mannheimer! JC ——– Original Message ——– Subject: Our Future Is Here Date: Wed, 23 Dec 2009 09:36:30 -0700 From: Dean Mannheimer To: DubLi Business Associates, I am forwarding to you some information that was sent to me that I think is very timely and reinforces the direction as well as the business model DubLi is bring to market. December 22nd, 2009 | by Brenna Ehrlich TrendsSpotting Market Research is kicking off its predictions for 2010 with its report on social media — comprised of forecasts from everyone from Mashable founder Pete Cashmore to Craig Newmark, of Craigslist fame. The report, which offers a tip of the hat to Twitter with its 140-character-per-prediction slideshow format, offers a smattering of prognostications, but we were most intrigued by two that came up again and again throughout the slideshow: Businesses finally integrating social media and seeing an actual ROI, and a shrinking/customization of the online world. Business and Social Media Some businesses already have a social media policy but according to the Internet luminaries consulted for the report, we can expect a lot more engagement with online communities in the coming year. We already know that it’s feasible to make money off of services like Twitter — Dell did it — it remains to be seen how far companies will go when it comes to embracing the web to turn a profit. Some of the choicest quotes are below: “Business will finally admit that social media ain’t some fad for kids and B-list movie stars.” Marta Kagan, managing director, U.S. Espresso-Brand Infiltration “Social media in 2010 will cease being the shiny new object and instead become part of the everyday lexicon of business.”- Charlene Li, Founder, Altimeter Group “Look for social to become less about the ‘what is it’ and even more about the ROI.”- Marc Meyer, principal, Digital Marketing Response Group Shrinking the World Wide Web Into Communities As the web becomes more expansive and all-encompassing, it’s only natural that we seek to contain it in some way, especially as mobile technology takes our real world interactions into the online world with such tools as Foursquare and other location-sharing devices (which Cashmore predicts will be spreading like proverbial wildfire this year). The experts consulted on the report had some fascinating ideas regarding exclusivity that don’t seem all that far-fetched considering recent debates about privacy and the like. Check out some of the most intriguing conjectures below: “I see velvet rope social networks, where some kind of gating to keep out the commons will occur.” Chris Brogan, president, New Marketing Labs “Twitter will offer a premium level option that’ll allow the creation of hosted invite only discussions.”- Marc Meyer, principal, Digital Marketing Response Group “The technology will begin to fade into the background so that people can focus on the relationships that are created because of the technologies, not the technologies themselves.”- Charlene Li, founder, Altimeter Group The future is here. You can now shop online from your car.  This is why DubLi is such an opportunity. A vision of the future. Ford Motor Co.’s newest cars and trucks will have the ability to become mobile WiFi hotspots, another feature of the next-generation Sync system the automaker plans to unveil at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas next month. The company said drivers will be able to insert a USB mobile broadband modem, also known as an air card, into the system’s USB port to establish a secure wireless connection throughout the vehicle. Passengers with WiFi equipped mobile devices will then be able to access the Internet. “While you’re driving to grandma’s house, your spouse can be finishing the holiday shopping and the kids can be chatting with friends and updating their Facebook profiles,” said Ford Americas President Mark Fields. “And you’re not paying for yet another mobile subscription or piece of hardware because Ford will let you use technology you already have.” As The Detroit News first reported last week, the new version of Sync — the onboard infotainment and communications system it developed with Microsoft Corp. — also will allow drivers to control many of the applications on their smartphone or music player with voice commands. Forward this on to your team as we are in the right place at the right time with the right company as we close out 2009. NOW prepare for what 2010 will bring all of us.

Internal Emails That Show Success Can Be Quick With DubLi

Reprinted from John Cini's blog. Here’s another fantastic message of commitment and results.  Congrats to Patrick Avon for his group’s explosive growth! JC ——– Original Message ——– Subject: Fwd: Snapshot update of what’s going on Date: Tue, 22 Dec 2009 12:23:38 -0500 From: Jim McCarron To: jim@jlmglobalmarketing.com . Team, Here is an e-mail that I received a few days ago from someone in my downline.  It is always encouraging to hear from other Dubli store owners that are making it happen. He is working very hard and will have the paycheck to show for it. He has been very coachable over the last few months and it is paying off. I hope everyone is ready for the new year. DubLi has  a lot of exciting things coming on board this spring. So be ready. As always if there is any way that I can help you open more stores and grow your business please just ask. Have a Great Day! Jim McCarron (301)631-6700 Office (301) 471-8894 Cell ———- Forwarded message ———- From: Patrick Avon <sarge@sargecorp.com> Date: Sat, Dec 19, 2009 at 6:53 AM Subject: Snapshot update of what’s going on To: Jim McCarron <mccarronins@gmail.com It’s amazing when you put a little attention and time to something good…what happens. A few weeks ago I signed a Gold, Michelle. Immediately she went to work and signed two brothers who, immediately went to work. They have to date put Pare’ and McCarron in front of 20 people and a bunch of them are signing up as I type. She has continued to put DubLi in front of the right people and more are signing up before Christmas. Michelle then bought shares of Dubli stock and made her Gold package license fee back from the stock profits alone. The stock jumped to an all time high this week. A gentlemen from another network sent me samples of his nutrition product. Told him the packaging and product were ok but I wouldn’t touch it for DubLi’s is the easiest business to grow I have ever seen. He signs up Gold this weekend and is bringing 10 with him. Shawn Eckert from WV and I this Monday are moving into an office on Monday to attack this business the same way McCarron, Pare’ and Cini did. Shawn should be Team Coordinator by Jan 1. Tony and Peggy are just getting started and putting me in front of three or four people this week and as a team are going to rock this business…and they are just getting started! Why am I telling you all of this…this is such an easy business, many people don’t do it at all. To become a Vice President it takes 5 Sales Directors in 5 different legs. They can be in any position in that leg. I will help 5 people this Spring become Sales Directors and I am going to work hard to make it happen. Jim McCarron and I are committed 100% to make this happen. In March DubLi, goes global and everyone bids on the same website. The stock will soar in February once Wall Street opens the books…The credit will be worth more than a click in the months to come, more countries are opening this Spring and on and on. This is happening and I am so glad I am in on the front. Strength Is No More Than How Well You Hide The Pain, Patrick Avon NASM CES, PES, CPT www.sarge.com 1-888-BOOTCAMP
