    About this ebook

    It's so simple you don't need a shop or expensive equipment!

    *A Very Powerful, Money-Making Opportunity!

    This is how it started!

    The story that follows is all "the Hi Tech training" we had to start our business!!!

    We purchased a Personalised Children's Books program. This allowed us to put a story into a book, which had the children's friends and family in the book by name, together with the person buying the book. The program needed a laser printer to print the book, and after the first laser cartridge was empty, we had to purchase another new one. We were a bit shocked at the price, to say the least. After a bit of enquiry, we found we could have the cartridge refilled for about half the price of a new cartridge. We thought if we can have the cartridge refilled, we should be able to refill it ourselves, as we are reasonably intelligent.

    Everyone we asked told us how difficult it was, how we wouldn't be able to do it etc (This happens a lot when your friends and family find you want to do something outside the norm!)

    After a lot of searching, we found a company 500 miles away who would teach us for a price. I arrived on their doorstep the next day, and had to bully them into taking my money.

    Imagine that! A company that really didn't want our money!

    Anyway, after two days we were into refilling laser cartridges, and then we started into re-inking ribbon cartridges!

    THEN WE WERE INTRODUCED TO INKJET CARTRIDGE REFILLING!

    Two people showed us the secrets of making money, filling inkjet cartridges

    WOW! What a revelation.

    Here was a recycling business that even I could understand, and best of all I saw the potential. Just take $2 worth of ink, spend 5 minutes and charge $20, to potentially everyone who owns a computer!

    What a way to go.

    We started buying ink from various companies around the US. After trying various companies, we found one that seemed to want our business, and we are still with them today. We now manufacture some of their ink under license!

    We have been showing other people how to make money with this economical & easy way to start up a home business ever since.

    Why would we show other people how to compete with us?

    Are we crazy?

    In the US alone it is estimated that there are billions of cartridges thrown away every year.They not only fill the rubbish tips but most of these cartridges are recyclable! Even if we both worked 7 days a week, 24 hours a day, we could not fill even 0.0001% of these cartridges. And every year the big companies make even more printers that take these cartridges and more!They even give the printers away, in some cases, so that more people will buy the cartridges.

    (Can you see the $ bills?)

    How do they make money?

    They make the cartridges for about $1 and sell them for up to $100!

      1. INTRODUCTION.

      We started in the Recycling Business because we purchased a Personalized Books program. This allowed us to put a story into a book, which had the persons, friends and family in the book by name together with the person buying the book.

      The program needed a laser printer to print the book, and after the first laser cartridge was MT, we had to purchase another from HP. We were a bit shocked at the price, to say the least. After a bit of enquiry, we found we could have the cartridge refilled for about half the price of a new cartridge. We thought if we can have the cartridge refilled, we should be able to refill it ourselves, as we appeared to be reasonably intelligent.

      Everyone we asked told us how difficult it was, how we wouldn't be able to do it etc,. After a lot of harassing, we found a company who would teach us for a price. I arrived on their doorstep the next day, and had to bully them into taking my money.

      Imagine that. A company that really didn't want my money!

      Anyway, after two days, we were into refilling laser cartridges, then we started onto repacking ribbon cartridges. Then we attended an Inkjet Cartridge Refilling seminar and discovered Inkjet Cartridge Refilling. A Premier Inkjet Company ran the seminar, and the guru of Inkjet people showed us how to take a printer apart and refill cartridges.

      What a revelation!

      Here was a recycling business that even I could understand, and best of all I saw the potential. After some disappointments with continuity of ink supplies, we decided to import our own ink. After trying various companies, we found one that seemed to want our business, and we are still with them today. We now import their ink, and make some ink under license to them.

      We have been marketing a start up pack for refilling cartridges, which included ink and equipment for starting an Inkjet Refilling Business, and we have been pleasantly surprised by the amount of interest we have received. We decided after researching the business, that we should market a starter kit without the ink, to access other markets.

      Only about 50% of people using Inkjet Printers know the cartridges can be refilled, and only about 1/2 of them actually refill their cartridges. The potential is enormous
