New Startup Promises 6-Figure Blogging & Podcasting Careers
Oct 29th, 2008 | By James Lewin | Category: Making Money with Podcasts, Podcasting 
The Blogger & Podcaster Media Network is a new media network startup that promises a “six-figure income for all.”
It’s not clear from the site if they are promising a six figure salary for everybody that signs up, or if everybody that signs up will just be asked to split it up equally.
Here are the membership benefits touted by BPMN:
- Revenue. The mission is to provide members with a six figure income from multiple revenue streams, including an affiliate program.
- Stock Ownership. All members who sign-on prior to December 31, 2008 will be gifted equity in the company. This way when the BPMN is successful, all members who helped get the network launched will benefit too, not just the guys at the top.
- Promotion. Through the SocialRank search engine and our network of Blogger & Podcaster Guides (distributed through mainstream media), BPMN members will have their content promoted to millions each month.
- Healthcare. BPMN is working on creating a healthcare program that will enable members to have access to quality healthcare if they desire to make blogging/podcasting a full time job.
- Discounts and Freebies. Members will include access to exclusive deals and promotions provided by BPMN partners. At launch this will include $2,000 in services from PR Newswire, a powerful promotional service.
The Network, formed from a merger of four companies: Fuel My Blog (a UK blog social network), Podcast Pickle (a podcast social network), SocialRank (blog search engine) and Blogger & Podcaster Magazine plans to launch in the first quarter of 2009.
Call us skeptical, but we’ll keep our eyes open for more BPMN news.

Do you think that’s a six figure income in peso’s or something?
Sounds like a scam.

I find it hard to believe that these reputable companies would be involved in a scam. The “six figure” quote is just an attempt to generate some buzz but at this point in new media’s growth and development I think it’s best to try different approaches and see what works and what doesn’t. If this works great! If not hopefully it will have at least been a noble experiment.
Not a scam. We’ve been working for over a year to put all the pieces together for this. We’ll be publishing the details in the cover story of the upcoming issue of Blogger & Podcaster. If anyone wants an advance copy feel free to email me at lgenkin at larstan dot net and I’ll send it over to you.
