Comments:
We are Ben and Niambi Bah from Martinsburg WV. We are Independent Business Owner (IBO) since January 2006. I am an engineer with a Master’s in Industrial Science and a PhD in Physics. My wife is a Lawyer with a JD. With 40 years total of education we are steel not yet where we want to be: that is being financial independent with no stress. So we are highly educated and were looking for a home base business opportunity. We saw Quixtar business presentation and the person told us about the starter cost that and the options that come with the starter pack. He told my wife and I that the starting fee is money back guaranty for six month if we do not like business, or feel being lied to or cheated or mislead or not happy about it. The optional products are money back guarantee for 6 months. He loaned us an information pack. We read it, went on line got more information, called asked more questions and was satisfied to be able to make a decision. We decided to start because there is nothing to loose, no risk, if we are not happy we will get our starter cost back within 6 months. The starter cost was $125.00. Since we started we are making money but on top of that the mentorship and the training have been above expectation. Are we happy? YES WE ARE. We are working to achieve our goals. We love the business. I can say that I did not see any business like this until now. We took the same good business and work ethics that we carried to our prospects. Today we have a phenomenal growing business because of BWW support system for the great training, and QUIXTAR great customer service and support to run our business. Honesty, good business and work ethics are all what BWW and QUIXTAR are about. You cannot go wrong with the right organization and corporate like Quixtar. There is no stress of doing your business. Anybody that will unintentionally or intentionally do or say or show or present something different or not in line with honesty good business ethic is not representing the value he/she learned, but is trying to create his/her own way of doing what he/she want to do. We cannot make the FTC do the wrong thing, but if they do, we will point it out and will fight it. Now some individual from the FTC may try to do something wrong knowing it is wrong. The FTC must fight those individual, because they are giving a bad image of a good Department. Because of those bad individual we are not going to change the FTC good work ethic. · 7 Days waiting period: is not going to allow me to grow, as I want to. Some prospects want to starter as soon as the finished their own research/homework. Eliminate the waiting period for business with six months money back on all expenses. · 10 references: I control my business and do not need to reference other IBO to validate my success. The prospect can get additional information on line about other successes: go to www.bww.com then success stories. Eliminate the requirement of 10 references. · All litigations for 10 years: Better Business Bureau existence would make no sense. Prospects are giving information and encourage doing their homework before making a decision to start or not to start. Eliminate the requirement of 10 year litigation list from IBOs. · Earnings Disclosure: standard disclosure like average monthly gross income can be giving. This does not have to be a requirement. · Personal financial documents: I do not put my information out there to do a business presentation. It is not a get rich quick business; there is work involved, if you build your business with the structure showed on the plan, you will have your own documents to substantiate what you want to know. This does not have to be a requirement. FTC you want the best for prospects. We all agree on that note. In the same note you do not have to strangle or slow down the best opportunities you have out there for the prospects to find (i.e. Quixtar). The FTC already studied Quixtar business model. Thanks to all Ben
