First of all, many of the programs I’ve seen tell you to do it for merchants with Clickbank. The thing they don’t mention is that rebates are explicitly against Clickbank’s policies. When they catch you at it you lose all your pending earnings.

Other companies may or may not allow it, but you generally have to get special permission.

The other risk is that you may pay out a rebate and then have the customer get a refund, and your affiliate commission goes away. You have to do some very careful tracking and only give rebates after the refund period. Pretty tough when people are likely to want immediate gratification.

Medical transcription can be a very good job, but you do have to pay for your own training. I did it for three years. The Andrews School, M-Tec and Career Step are generally considered to be the top 3 online schools.

As for online jobs, yes, they do exist but there’s a lot of competition. As with any other job you need to consider your skills. You can do customer service if you have a very, very quiet place to work. Most such companies allow no background noise at all. Data entry is a popular option, but there are only a few legit companies, so the jobs are hard to get.

You may also want to consider general transcription. If you have some basic transcription skills already, Tigerfish has an online test you can take, then you just wait for a job to open up if you do well enough on it.

As to medical transcription, ask yourself how good a typist you are? How good are your language skills, how are you at spelling? And most important, how interested are you in taking a number of medical course to become familiar with the lexicon of medicine?

If the above are all positive, then find an accredited school that you can afford.

The Association for Healthcare Document Integrity is the association that oversees trascriptionists. Here is their link and recommended schools

And no rebate affiliate marketer is not a legitimate job. Bet they are asking for money upfront for you to get into that arent they?

I’m not sure that there are too many jobs for the transcriptionist especially work at home jobs. If still interested in training, please consider the more affordable county vo-tech school or community college as long as it’s accredited within the industry.

I’ve never heard of a "rebate" affiliate marketer. I do affiliate marketing full time online, though. I drive traffic to my sites via PPC (Pay Per Click) like google adwords, yahoo search marketing, msn adcenter, etc. Last month I made about $20,000. Actually, July was my first month that I got serious about it. If you don’t have money to spend via PPC – you can get free traffic doing things like article marketing, search engine optimization, video traffic – etc.

If you’re not interested in owning your own business like that, and would rather work at home for someone else – you can find a lot of at-home call center jobs. Basically you apply just like you would a normal job, and then if hired, you buy a headset, and take phone calls for companies that have customers calling in asking for their gift card balance, or something small like that. Probably around $9 – $15 per hour depending on which company you go with.

Feel free to contact me with any other questions you might have. Regardless – good luck and hope you find something you enjoy and make money from!
