Comments:

The Quixtar organization has been very informaitive as to the amount of money that can be made and what it takes to make the money. Quixtar is very honest and conservative with the claims they make. It is my opinion that there isn't another business that measures up to the integrity of Quixtar. When I share the Quixtar opportunity with people the potential benefits are explained based on approved numbers from our line of sponsorship (Worldwide Dream Builders) and the Quixtar corporation. We are taught to provide conservative information and build our business with integrity. We are creating long term relationships, this is not a get rich quick scheme. The cost of registration along with the support materials and tools provided by our line of sponsorship to help the prospect build a solid business totals around $150. When a person becomes an IBO and later changes his or her mind, we will refund their money. They have nothing to loose and everything to gain. Having a seven day waiting period would penalize the new business owner from starting a business right away. There is no need for the delay if we are willing to refund their money if they change their mind. A seven day delay could discourage the prospect from getting started or prevent them from attending training seminars vital to the growth of their business. There is no need to provide references. When they attend their first seminar, they will be able to meet as many people as they want and discuss the business opportunity with the IBO's. I'm also not interested in other IBO's sharing my name address and phone number with everyone they meet. I would be happy to discuss the business with people face to face. Our line of sponsorship is taught to help our downline and their prospects. Since we all work together, it gives prospects an opportunity to speak to IBO's in their line of sponsorship prior to making a decision. Why should we have to provide a list of litigations when Quixtar has such a good reputation. If they really want information like this they can look it up. When we discuss the money potential we share a document that explains how the money is made, what the potential is and it mentions the monthly avg income of an IBO. We discuss the work habit necessary to make money and explain that it is not a get rich quick scheme. I don't provide information about my personal income and I don't think it should be disclosed. We spell out the potential in the above mentioned document. We also talk about the work habit to achieve it. Once they know the pin level we are at they have a good understanding of the money being made.
