Ideal Positions - Flat Rate Google and Yahoo?

recently had a phone call from a sales rep from a company called ideal positions.  They were pitching a flat rate advertising opportunity in google's sponsored links adwords.  Since I have lots of experience with pay per click marketing I asked what there costs were if they were charging a flat rate of X dollars for a search phrase and this is pay per click I asked and they said that ideal positions has a triple platinum contract with yahoo and are very high up with google and get keywords in sponsored links and they pay a flat price which I tended to think was bs but with an open mind I won't make that determination until I fully investigate this claim.  Has anyone heard of any advertser/ reseller paying a flat rate to google for sponsored links?

Yeah and when I type "Montana Hunting" "Montana Deer Hunting" "Montana Big Game Hunters" or reverse "Elk Hunting Montana"  instead of "Montana Elk Outfitters" you are invisable. I checked the words against the Google Sand Box and as expected a dominant budget per day for "Montana Elk Outfitters" is $1 a day.

When I searched for "Montana Elk Outfitters" you came up. When I searched for Montana Elk Hunting" you were on the side, When I searched for "Montana Hunting" you were no place same thing with Montana Deer Hunting, then I checked the Google Sandbox and the average cost for a dominant budget for "Montana Elk Outfitters" is $1 a day. So how much do you pay Ideal Positions a month for your short list of obscure key words? How do you measure your results? If you have a credit card and 10 minutes you can sign up with adwords your self and budget $50 a month and get the same results. Oh, and Google Analytics are free.

I got the call too... These guys told me that they had some sort of deal worked out with Yahoo. I called my Yahoo Account Rep and he just laughed at that idea. There is no way that anyone can put you in a advertising position and pay less than what you would pay by doing it yourself.

I also have a contract with Ideal Positions, go to www.forsalebozeman.com and there I am first on Yahoo and Google, search for bozeman homes for sale. I was VERY skeptical first, like everyone else...lots of scam out there, actually the biggest one is MONEY TREE, never ever do business with this people they get your money and GOODBAY LEADS...GOODBAY MONEY. Never answer you phone call again. Ideal Positions, they call you before, during and always to make sure you are satisfied, checking in your results, THEY ARE GREAT!

DO NOT TRUST ON E-PERKS, MONEY TREE, HOMEGAIN, ALLL OF THEM JUST WANT YOUR MONEY. I am saying this because I've tried before and lost lots of money with these SCAM COMPANIES.

THANKS AND HOPE I COULD HELP YOU ALL!
