You may be saying this is too good to be true???

YOU have a choice: you can try this program risk free, and like all of us you will generate revenue over and over. This is a business opportunity in the advertising industry.

The biggest advantage here is that you do not have to recruit and you do not have to be at the computer, the management team does it all and you still make decent money.

I have been able to advertise my business for free AND have been able to earn revenue without doing a thing.

Both of the Banners Broker founders will be in Plainview on January 31st for the event. You can ask them all the questions you have and get answers right away. Would that be worth 1 hour of your time???

January 31st from 7 – 8 PM at the Residence Inn by Marriott, 9 Gerhard Road, Plainview

Banners Broker is already in over 100 countries around the globe.

This program is incredible and it is focused on HELPING others. With so many people hurting today and foreclosures going on this program is amazing.
Unlike other ad networks online, Banners Broker also offers an integrated solution that caters to both the advertiser and publisher. This is called our Combo Package. It enables you to advertise your business on numerous websites in the network and at the same time, earn advertising revenues as a publisher through specialized and targeted publisher sites created by Banners Broker.

While your website profits through its primary source of revenue, Banners Broker designs and implements a supplemental revenue stream for your business. Without any additional work on your part, they place designated ads on the pages of your choice that reach your target audience while earning you commission for each impression.

This is hands off: you earn revenue, advertise your business, and all the hard work is done by someone else.

We deliver nothing but the best…

awilliams@mygevas.com

A Virtual Assistant is an Independent Contractor who works independently from their own home.  The individual works virtually and utilizes today’s modern technology like the computer, phone, fax machines, email, internet and postal service to carry out their services.

Global Elite Virtual Assistant Services was founded by Andrene Williams in January 2010. Ms. Williams has over 15 years experience as an Office Manager at a major hospital in Queens. In that capacity, she handled the payroll, staffing, assist with recruitment, employees and residents complaints, served as liaison between staff and upper management, ordered medical and office equipment and supplies, created policy and procedures, processed check requests for staffing agencies, budget plans, input medical data into the system for our Medicaid/Medicare reimbursement, served as overseer for the Unit Clerks, union contracts and was responsible for the overall daily function of the Nursing Office. Ms. Williams is also the Founder/CEO of a non-profit youth organization located in Queens, New York. Her organization provides scholarships, after-school programs, summer programs, tutoring, and career advisement, financial assistant for summer program, job preparation skills and mentoring. She is also a license Real Estate Salesperson, has a degree in Nursing and a Notary.

 
In 2008, Ms. Williams became unemployed and desperately seeking employment. She knew she had to find alternate means to take care of her financial obligations. She wanted to find a job that will enable her to utilize her experience while working at her own convenience. She also needed time to devote to her non-profit youth organization. Ms. Williams came across an article on the internet about Virtual Assistants. After researching the concept further, she realized that this is exactly what she wanted to do. Ms. Williams then decided to name her business Global Elite Virtual Assistant Services. She saw beyond the stars and knew that one day G.E.V.A.S. would be a worldwide successful business. Ms. Williams would one day be able to grow her business to the degree where she can employ others.
