Orange Leads FAQ Page Added



I have added an Orange Leads FAQ page here. If you have a question you would like answered for possible inclusion in the list, please ask it below under comments. I will do my best to answer it.

Note that this list will initially be based on actual questions from the live Orange Leads chat room, not the canned Q & A from Tim's robot. While the auto answers serve a purpose, the FAQ page here is designed to provide a more personal answer tailored to a real question.

Orange Leads Tip Of The Day



Attention Orange Leads Members: If you have not already done so I highly recommend exporting any leads you may have saved in the online CRM and maintaining your own backup data base.

It is also advisable to copy and paste all of your Orange Leads downline and maintain your own stand alone data base for them as well. It is advisable to keep this up to date on a regular basis.

The recent Orange Leads server crash and subsequent restoration to an April 2010 backup date resulted in anyone who signed up in the interim to disappear from your downline. Any changes to your Orange Leads home page also reverted back to whatever you had (or didn't have) there back in April.

It is important to take personal responsibility for your own business and control as many variables as possible. Just as it is important to backup you own personal computer in case of a crash, it is equally important or perhaps more so to back up your personal leads and downline data held on third party servers, such as Orange Leads.

Also, if you wish to be sure to keep in touch with everyone on your Orange Leads friends list, make it a point to connect with them on skype also and/or exchange emails or other contact info. I personally recommend using skype and creating a list for your Orange Leads contacts.

On that note, please add me to your skype contacts if you wish have direct access to me outside of Orange Leads. My skype user name is: herb_mason See you there!

Orange Leads Hosted Blogs Still Down


I am sad to report the Orange Leads hosted blogs are still down. Timothy L. Drobnick Sr. has told me via skype that the blogs were putting a huge drag on his servers and that he is switching to new servers.

Since the Orange Leads hosted blogs have been down for several weeks now, I have also decided to switch servers and go back to using blogspot for my Orange Leads News blog. Unfortunately the news as of late has not been good.

I know from monitoring your posts in chat that it has been frustrating for many of you who use orange leads to suddenly be locked out of your blog after putting months or even a couple of years, as in my case, into building a solid following for your blog. There are other ongoing issues as well, most notably the leads with phone numbers are missing the last digit, rendering them virtually useless.

I am hopeful that Timothy L. Drobnick Sr. will step up to the plate and handle these issues. I am extremely puzzled as to why he has not done so already.

It will take a little time to get this Orange Leads News blogspot blog up to speed again. I will do my best to bring you objective updates about Orange Leads as well as useful related information
