Posted By: Shawn In Response To: 2ups discussion: direct sales with leverage (abfav)
Sunday, 7 August 2005, at 12:04 p.m.
Hello Andy, if only it was that easy. Jimbo is right on the money about all the "ifs" involved and also gave an excellent illustration of the work that is actually involved. If your commission is $1000 you must be selling something very expensive. I have passed on these programs for that reason. There are a whole lot of opportunities out there for the part timer which you can start for little money. I have found from my own experience that perseverence is a big key to success, and so if you invest alot of money and don't turn a quick profit the chances of quitting are very high. However, if your investment is really low, then you tend to stick it out a little longer giving your business time to build.

> Here is my question about 2-ups:
> I am looking at a 2-up not as something that can give me the huge money
> that we hear so much about (6 figures a month). I am looking at it from a
> direct sales point of view that pays $1000 per sale but with 2-up leverage
> and, no other percentage/levels.
> If I do find a product that is worth the money (a very important point to
> me)and I can make $1000 per sale, then if I can sell one per week, that is
> $52,000 at the end of the year. Nothing amazing but more than I ever made.
> Now IF each of those people make at least two sales and they pass them up
> to me, then that is another $104,000 over time, for a total of $156,000

> Now if those 2-ups that were passed to me continue to sponsor anyone else

> I don’t really care about how much doesn’t go to me as Len mentioned in

> I read that insurance industry has used this model and also selling cars

> Thanks for kindly responding regarding my specific point of making 6

| PLEASE READ THIS LEGAL NOTICE CAREFULLY BEFORE YOU FILE A LAWSUIT OR EVEN WASTE TIME THINKING ABOUT IT. It has been done before, but never successfully. In fact, the last dodobird who tried it ended up being ordered to pay more than $77,000 in attorney fees ($65,000+ to my attorneys and $12,000+ to my co-defendant's legal advisor).
If your attorney is worth his salt, he's going to tell you that the expense of filing a lawsuit you can't win is a whole lot worse than any "damages" resulting from messages posted on this insignificant little chunk of cyberspace. NEWS FLASH: I didn't just climb down off that ol' turnip truck yesterday. I'm well aware that expressing a negative opinion, relating one's personal experience, and restating provable facts are all legal in this country and do not constitute libel, slander, or defamation -- so you don't want to play games with me, and you sure don't want to start something you aren't prepared to finish. I don't take threats lightly, and I don't accept bribes (or did you call it a "mutually-beneficial arrangement"?). I'll turn you in faster than you can yell, "ARREST ME, I'M SCUM!!" Do yourself a favor and turn your legal team loose in greener pastures. Although we may, from time to time, monitor or review discussions, postings and the like on the Friends In Business (Scams 101) Message Board, we are under no obligation to do so.

You are likewise prohibited from posting any false claims against any company or individual. We will fully cooperate with any law enforcement authorities or court order requesting or directing us to disclose the identity of anyone posting any such information or materials.

In closing, I would like to remind you once again that it is still legal, in this great country of ours, to express a PERSONAL OPINION, as long as it is presented as opinion and not as fact. And finally, all you scammers out there will do well to remember that TRUTH IS AN ABSOLUTE DEFENSE against charges of libel, defamation, and slander... so if you're operating just a hop, skip, and jump ahead of the law, you might want to think twice before doing anything stupid... (AND SHAME ON YOU!!). |
