Every time a new home business opportunity hits the market, there's a flurry of investigation into whether it's a scam. Now conventional businesses fail all the time -- more often than they succeed. But we don't call them scams. We just call them failed businesses.

 

Also, you could argue that a lot of products in the marketplace are overpriced -- but that doesn't make them a scam. It just makes them overpriced. Think, for instance, about your favorite name brand product vs. a generic. Same thing, different price. Is the name brand a scam? No. But it's got to cover a lot of marketing costs.

 

As soon as something is a home-based business, though, it seems like people are pretty quick to holler "scam," even if a business just falls into one of the above categories of failing or overpricing. In my mind, the true use of the word "scam" has to do with people intentionally trying to rip you off. There are plenty of scams out there, but maybe not as many as those that are called scams.

 

Having explained all this, I can tell you emphatically that TamPogo is no scam. Why? Because think about what TamPogo is. It's a discount shopping experience. Period. Take a gander at the prices. You'll see that they really are discount prices and will save people plenty of money.

 

What about the representatives? Are they getting scammed?

 

Well, there's no fee to join. There's no fee for a website or back office. There's no monthly membership fee. The ONLY cost they have is the purchase of one discounted item per month -- as little as $20 and less than they'll find elsewhere. If they're going to shop online anyway, they might as well save some money by shopping at TamPogo. And since they're shopping at TamPogo anyway, why not become a member for free and share the store for free?

 

The store and products are real. The pricing is really good. And there just aren't any fees involved to make this anything at all like a scam.
