|
|
My name is Linda and I'm a high school teacher who is nearing retirement. I was looking for a business that would provide my family the financial freedom we are looking for so after retirement there will be no need to get another job.
In the past I have worked other home businesses where I was pressured to sell, stock, deliver, and collect money and that really didn't fit with my family. There is NO pressure with this company and the support we have is priceless and best of all...Its free. I'm looking for 10 serious people to partner up with and help them reach their financial goals.
If you are one of those 10 check out my website and click on Get More Info http://www.lmachrolistayinhomeandlovinit.com |

wHY BE GROSS?
I'm talking about a legitimate business and trying hard to be able to tell you all the details instead of a few seconds of time that would not do the opportunity justice. |

Whenever I hear this, I wonder: If you don't sell anything, stock/deliver merchandise, provide a service, or collect any money, YOU DON"T HAVE A BUSINESS...
Sounds like the same [s]scam[/s] advice you hear from all multi-level "marketing" [s]scams[/s] schemes. |

No honest business takes 30 minutes to explain. If you can't tell me what your business is in a sentence or two, I just assume it's a scam.
I've never been disappointed or missed out on a good opportunity.

| It is a referral business but to get all the details about the company (a Wellness company) and their products you would listen to an overview call that lasts about 30 minutes. It is a real opportunity to make the money you need or want according to your efforts. If you don't want to pass up an opportunity email me your phone number and I will give you a call and get you set up to listen to an overview call. No pressure!! |

I don't know, that pitch was pretty weak. You missed:
- telling me about the "wealth level I deserve"
- telling me about the "luxurious lifestyle"
- stressing the "opportunity" represented here
- the univerally-applicable techniques
On the plus side, you did emphasize:
- how easy it is
- how anyone can do it
- how low work it is
- how cheap -free, even- it is
Now that I'm remembering, John T Reed does keep a nice list of words you may want to use in future copy'n'paste pitches:
· perfect offer
· confidential
· sure-fire
· removes doubts
· secret (if it ever was a secret, it stopped being one when he sold the first copy)
· cinch
· always
· lazy way
· anyone can make a killing
· removes risk
· easy money
· easily determine market value
· air-tight
· take the fear out
· risk-free
· judgment proof
· insider
· painless
· fool-proof
· safe
· win/win
· removes guesswork
· easy
· magic
· bulletproof
· gold mine
· complete
riches
· This is not a get-rich-quick scheme
· automatic

Is this Amway?
I went to the site and still can't tell what the business is.
Another case of being in business to sell the business...
It is sad how many people get duped by these things. |

| No it is not Amway!! Far from it . We are only allowed to advertise our team until we are in contact with a person either by email or by phone and then we can give you the company name and let you listen to an overview call that explains the business and the products of the 20 year old, BBB highly rated company, does business in 9 countries, the wellnesss company, cheaper. environmentally safe products to use yourself not sell. We refer others to the company as well. Money is good! Risk free you can get test drive the company for 120 days and still get your money back if you are not satisfied. |

I don't get it. If I'm using the products myself, not selling them, isn't the company making money instead of me?
In any event, I put the terms "international wellness company," which I got from your website, and "scam" into my favorite search engine, which, by the way, pays me to use it, and I got back this:

Is this the business opportunity you are trying to get us to bite on? And isn't this a ponzi scheme? |

| If it is the company from your link, tmeri, it's probably just an MLM. They mention "Kim Holton, who had sponsored people she cared about" so I figure you start using the products, and then you try to get your family and friends to use them. You probably get a percentage of the profits for anyone you can find to use the product. So your dad buys from you, his nephew buys from your dad. You get probably 20% of what dad pays plus 10% of what the nephew pays. See, you're not "selling" (dirty word), you are persuading friends to use a product that you like and can recommend to others. <cough> That's my guess. I'm not sure how Amway works, but it's gotta be similar. |

Yeah, that sounds legitimate (NOT). It's a secret team until they have you captive. If you read about the company on your own, you might think about it and realize it's a scam. Instead, you need to hear about the company under conditions they control.
What possible rationalization can you give for keeping the team and the details secret till I give you contact information? _________________ -=sgeeeee=- |
