At 1:01 EST I was at my computer and ready to begin sending invitations to everyone I know. Calling people to let them know the invitation was coming and everything. Having developed a nice following and expecting that Blastoff anticipated the coming launch by preparing their systems was expecting more than they could deliver.
Around 2:00pm I received an email informing me of what I had already discovered. Blastoff's servers were overwhelmed and had crashed. No surprise, 100,000 members anxiously waiting to send 250 emails each through the invite system meant a huge amount of traffic. Not to mention pay per click traffic and separate email invites sent outside the email system.
Right now, perhaps like you, I am left frustrated and impatient. Not to mention as a Pre-Paid Legal associate I was told I would have two weeks to promote Blastoff prior to public launch. This has now been reduced to four 24 hour periods before Pizza Hut starts pushing this too. The pressure to grow the network, when most people have never heard of it, overwhelms me.
Personally Pizza Hut entering the scene indicates that Blastoff is gonna be for real and lends more credibility than Pre-Paid Legal alone. What seems unfortunate is the two week window being reduced to such a short time and even shorter due to slow loading times. Many of my close friends are also indicating their disappointment after a long awaited launch. Several delays later and we have this.
The pressure now increases and we must do everything possible to create a network and make money online with this prior to Pizza Hut's promotion. Rest assured I will have little rest over the next 72 or so hours as I spread the word. The time given to me to market this great opportunity will not be wasted.
There is no doubt that Blastoff will be running much smoother in a matter of days. The challenge is that by then Pizza Hut will begin sucking up a significant portion of the Blastoff network. Then what will the exclusive period for Pre-Paid Legal associates mean? Very little considering the lost network due to ill prepared servers at Blastoff.

We Must Overcome Pizza Hut at Blastoff Network Launch
It has been confirmed by an official email received from Pre-Paid Legal Services that Blastoff will launch on October 22nd 12 noon CT. What was also officially confirmed was that Pizza Hut intends to market Blastoff. With Pizza Hut's marketing power they may quickly own the ground floor of the opportunity Blastoff offers to members and their families. If you are not familiar with Blastoff watch this video.
Sadly, this could significantly limit the earning potential the average Blastoff member may have of earning any significant commissions with this incredible opportunity. In order to prevent this from happening we must act quickly to corner the market before Pizza Hut. Consider Pizza Hut's potential share of the Blastoff Network. They intend to begin marketing this on October 27th, only five days after Pre-Paid Legal associates can begin inviting others. They will start by placing box top ads on every pizza they sell. Consider that there are over 12,000 Pizza Hut franchises each selling several hundred pizza's a week. That means Pizza Hut will expose over one million people to Blastoff each week.
When you take a look at how fast the Blastoff network will grow and the methods they have for spreading the word, including social networking, Pizza Hut will sit at the top of a huge network in no time at all. This in turn means the Pizza Hut corporation will potentially earn an astounding amount of commission through Blastoff. The sheer size of Pizza Hut's hold on the network will prevent these commissions from reaching the families of Blastoff members and simply place those into the pockets of Pizza Hut executives.
Is it even possible to remain competitive while Pizza Hut enters the market? Certainly!! Though you must spread the word appropriately. In addition to sending emails you should contact friends and family by phone. Spread the word through any means possible and inform those you tell of the urgency in telling others about Blastoff and Pizza Hut's intentions to enter this network for their own gain. Blastoff members currently total about 100,000 and this force can be incredible. We can show this corporate giant that our number power will overcome their buying power as long as we spread the word with extreme urgency.

Your New Start Page Is Going To Blastoff
Attention Google and Yahoo shoppers a new homepage will be hitting the internet soon! A company named Blastoff has created a brand new start page experience ready to overthrow your usual starting point online. Why will so many people be making the switch to the Blastoff homepage? Blastoff will offer users something Google and Yahoo users will likely never receive, money.
The money Blastoff will offer first comes in the form savings on your purchases. Blastoff will bring you exclusive deals on nearly everything you can purchase online. This includes music downloads, cell phones, vacation packages, clothing, books, home services; cable, satellite TV, internet, and phone, and so much more.
In addition to the exclusive deals you will receive cash back on every purchase you make through the Blastoff Network hompage. I am sure you are aware that Google and Yahoo have made a fortune based on all the revenue you have generated for their affiliates and advertisers. In return for that revenue, Google and Yahoo earned, have you ever received a cash back check? Blastoff will give you 1-15% cash back on every purchase made through their over 400 affiliate sites.
The third way Blastoff gives you money is by referring others to your Blastoff Network homepage. Imagine if you could make money simply by referring others to Google and Yahoo. Then every time your friend made a purchase through a Google or Yahoo affiliate you would get paid too. That is exactly what Blastoff is offering. Not just for the people you refer, the people they refer and the people they refer too. They are going to pay you ten levels out from yourself. Ready to give up the Google and Yahoo homepage yet?
Consider this, there are only six degrees of separation between every human. Blastoff is offering commissions on ten degrees of separation. How quickly do you think this will spread after launch? Did I mention this is all completely free? The affiliates are all major sites like iTunes, Target, Barnes & Noble, Comcast, AT&T, and list goes on and on. The launch takes place in just a matter of days and is by invitation only request an invitation now.
Will you be one of the first in the network or one of the last?
If you are already my friend or follower on Facebook, Twitter, or Myspace you will receive an invitation from me. If not, just click on the links to become my friend.

Latest Email From Blastoff: Blastoff Network CEO Update 10/15/09
Although Blastoff was going to allow invites today, based only on information previously found on the Blastoff Network site, this email was sent to me at 11:21pm EST yesterday October 15th.
Hello PPL / Blastoff Members!
We now have close to 100,000 members and are growing every hour. We have been bombarded with questions surrounding just a few key issues which I have addressed in a video blog which can be seen by clicking the following link:
http://blastoffnetwork.com/?page_id=682
The launch is just days away - the momentum is building!
Best,
Bill Rodgers
CEO
Blastoff Network
Like you I patiently await. There are almost 100,000 members already?! Now is certainly the time to request an invitation.
Lets just calculate the potential growth of the network over the first few weeks of launch. We will just assume that everyone in the network only invites the multiplying number of people to join per week. Take a look at these very basic images.
This shows total Blastoff Network growth assuming that everyone in the network only brings in one new member per week!!
This shows total Blastoff Network growth assuming that everyone in the network only brings in three new members per week!! Note those totals that simply are not possible. Blastoff membership is limited to the United States and Canada right now. Which means roughly 350 million people.
If you are already my friend or follower on Facebook, Twitter, or Myspace you will receive an invitation from me. If not, just click on the links to become my friend.

Latest Email From Blastoff: Blastoff Update
This email was just received regarding the launch of the Blastoff Network:
Hi Team,
We'd like to update everyone, and let you all know we are still in the Prelaunch phase!
Bill Rogers, CEO of Blastoff, says his engineers are working night and day to get our invitation emails Spam Compliant.
Blastoff is preparing for 50 million out-going emails from Phase 1! They have been in contact with Google, Yahoo, and AOL, to let them know about our launch, and what to expect, so we do not get blacklisted. Our goal is to have NO Interruptions. We're still expecting to launch phase 1 this week.
This sounds like the perfect opportunity to mention that Blastoff will limit invites to 250 daily. I have already received so many requests for an invitation at launch that it is important that you send me a message letting me know you are serious about participating so I can ensure you receive your invitation in the first few days of launch. For all those who have already requested an invitation, you are still at the top of my priority list and there is no need to send me a second email, I assure you. Thanks

PPLSI - Blastoff Launch Delayed
This email was received late last night.
Hello Pre-Paid Legal Associates,
We have seen your excitement and efforts build towards the
Blastoff launch and are incredibly excited to see success
from this program! We are now anticipating millions of
email invitations going out on the first day! The world
will soon know about Pre-Paid Legal in a way never before
seen in more than three decades! Thanks to our partnership
with Blastoff, we see an opportunity to truly reach the
masses with the Pre-Paid Legal message, perhaps for the
first time in history. Blastoff is currently working night
and day to communicate with the main webmail services across
the US to make them aware of the email volume to come, and
keep all Blastoff members using the invitation service
provided SPAM compliant. Blastoff needs a little more time
to secure this effort. Due to this, we are postponing the launch.
We know you are anxious to hit the ground running (and so
are we, and so is Blastoff) but we want to take the appropriate
precautions for lasting success - which includes remaining
SPAM compliant.
What this means for you is that Blastoff will NOT launch on
Monday. They simply need more time. We anticipate being able
to announce a new launch date very soon and don't expect it.
We will post more information as it becomes available at
http://www.prepaidlegal.com/blastoff
We realize this announcement may be discouraging for some, but
rest assured that while this delay was not anticipated or desired
by anyone at Pre-Paid Legal or Blastoff, we both believe it's
the best course of action to ensure the compliance necessary
to continue doing business into the future.
Personally I am not surprised because I was wondering how Blastoff was going to prevent spamming through the invite feature too. Guess we all discover that this is something that still needs ironed out. I will continue to provide updates regarding launch as they are received.

Blastoff Network in Prelaunch
As a Blastoff Network member this blog is intended to discuss everything Blastoff. The only way to currently enroll as a Blastoff member is to become a Pre-Paid Legal associate which I was already prior to the announcement of the partnership. Pre-Paid Legal issued a press release announcing the partnership that you can view for yourself here. I'll review some of the key points.
As mentioned, only Pre-Paid Legal associates may become Blastoff members at this point. To allow all associates the opportunity to enroll and get in on the ground floor prior to launch associates have until October 11th to enroll themselves. On October 12th associates will have two exclusive weeks to promote Blastoff off and you will only be able to join Blastoff if you receive an invitation from a Pre-Paid Legal associate. On October 26th everyone will have the opportunity to join and invite others.
As far as Blastoff goes the site is awesome. It connects everything you want most on the internet. Music, news, video, video games, shopping, social networking, and I imagine there will even be more to come. Members receive cash back on every purchase through Blastoff and access to member only deals on the internet. Members also receive commission on all purchases made by those they refer out 10 degrees of separation.
The best part is, this is all free to take part in. Membership is completely free to everyone. As far as a downfall to this, I have a difficult time finding one. The only exception perhaps is that once this thing hits it's peak it may be difficult for future members to earn commissions because so many people will already be enrolled. At the same time, these members still have access to the discounts and the cool start page that connects you to nearly everything you want on the internet.
If you need an invite in the pre-launch phase taking place between October 12th and October 26th just send me a message and I will gladly oblige. Thanks for taking the time to read this. Expect future tidbits with details on the members only features and discounts.
