Gary you sound really stressed out. I'm glad to hear that things are now under control. Today I received a really weird email from my coach. Here it is:
Swimming friends,
[My wife] and I wanted to let you know about a business opportunity we have recently
gotten involved in.
We are very confident you would find this business a fun and motivating way to build
income, whether a small amount to put away for the future, or as a more significant
part of your day to day income. Many have taken this thing through the roof and
are running it full time.
WHY? We get asked by family and friends...... It's really simple - [my wife] and I have gotten into this business because it has the proven and absolute ability to generate reliable and ongoing income, with a minimal amount of time....For us, that means the ability to free up our time and finances so we can spend more time with our two little ladies. No plans to change careers, just an avenue to build some additonal
income, income that will be generated after a few months of good hard work.
The basics of the business are as follows:
1.. We represent a telecommunications company, Excel Communications, that is a
full service provider in long distance, cellular and Internet.
2.. Excel Communications operates through a direct selling network marketing
approach. They do no advertising, they gain customers through a commission and
bonus program for individuals that become Independant Representatives. Those
Reps (such as [my wife] and I), go out and find customers for Excel. We also go out
and find others to partner with us and gather customers. In return, Excel
provides two types of compensation, a bonus structure based around the number of
customers and representatives signed up, and a commission based on the total
phone/cellular/internet usage of all cusomers signed through our business.
3.. Up front investment is $450, we'll get ours back within 3 or 4 weeks of
starting. After that, it's profit time. No inventory, no bill collecting, no
accounting, it's all handled for you. Signing up customers is as simple as
going to a web site, or making a phone call.
If we have peaked your interest, check out our web site at www.excelir.ca/goforgold
. You can find out about the business by checking out the "Business Opportunity"
section.
This Wednesday, April 9, there is a presentation on the Excel Business at the
Travelodge at 526 Mayor Magrath Drive - 7:30pm. [My wife] and I will be there, along
with some experienced local people who will be doing the presentation. There is
absolutely no commitment involved in attending the meeting. We saw this
opportunity and immediately believed it would be a great way for University students
and staff to generate a side income. Getting started through the summer would
allow the business to be running on a very part time basis when you return in the
fall.
If you are not at all interested, we hope you will consider supporting our business
by looking through the "Products and Services" section of our web site and trying
out one of the great products offered. Your support in this way would be very much
appreciated.
A note that Excel has just launched an evening & weekends long distance plan at
$21.95 per month (1000 minutes evenings&weekend + 10 cents a minute to Canada & USA
daytime)....not much on the web site about it yet...
AGAIN....WHY? Time and Financial freedom..... WHY NOT?
Thanks for taking the time to read through this. If your current and future
situation might be improved through this business, then get in touch with us or come
out to the meeting on Wednesday at 7:30 (Travelodge - 526 Mayor Magrath) and we can
explain more.
Look forward to hearing from you!
Take care,
[signed]
So I made him this little picture that he should send along with his emails... what do you think?
