Comments:
Dear Federal Trade Commission Member "Business Opportunity Rule, Matter No.R511993" I am respectfully asking you to reconsider some of the provisions you are proposing on the direct sales industry. I am a XanGo Consultant and proud to be involved with them for 1 year this month.I became involved with XanGo for health reasons and soon discovered great health benefits and decided to share this news. This gave me extra income and freedom from financial worries, but most importantly, to meet a wounderful group of people, who want to help each other both health wise and financially as well. The regulation you are proposing would hinder me from sharing with more people who could benefit as I have.This would hinder others from starting their business in the timeframe they choose. I would not feel comfortable providing the personal contact information of other associates in XanGo, nor would I want my personal information given out freely. I am greatful that we have FTC working to protect average consumers like myself, but in this case it appears to be working against me and does nothing to stop the crooks. Respectifully I ask you to reconsider the seven-day waiting period and the impracticality of finding the 10 nearest existing sale people. This seems to open more possible safety issues and possibility of ID theft . Sincerely Helen Reynolds Wagoner
