And for the rest of you... 100 million? lol Are you guys crazy?

First of all if you did 1000 signups a day (using a round number) which would be a large program you figure only 25% of those signups go past trial. So 250x39.99 which after processing is really about 35 = $8,750 a day. Out of those they only stay an average of 1.5 months so that is anohter 12,000 over time. Now take away chargebacks, and credits and you are at about 10,000 a day. Then you have to pay your wembasters for those 1000 signups at 35.00 each (35,000)..... you are already down 10,000 dollars a day... So lets say you make 3k a day off dialers and another 3k off your exits. Not you are only down 4k a day... You see where I'm going.

Not to mention that we pay for bandwidth, servers, staff, content.. (reality sites costing 60-80k per) and so on.

There is much, much, much smaller margin then anyone has a clue of.
