The Answer To Your Question…
Fact: If you are not into free enterprise, you ARE working for someone who is.
I’ve noticed something interesting in the past few months, quite by accident. I wrote an entry about my one year anniversary with YTB Travel and Cruises back in January. In that entry, I mentioned how some people wonder if what I do is a “scam” or “pyramid”. What is interesting about that is more people find me because of that entry than any other entry I have written. They find me because they do a Google, Yahoo, or MSN search looking for “YTB Scam” or “YTB Pyramid” and up pops this entry, often on the first page! It made me begin to think, these are the same people who get up and go to work every day working for someone else, being tied down to someone else’s schedule, trading hours for wages, and I’m considered the scam!
It’s not the Pyramid they are afraid of. It’s one of the strongest structures known to man, look at the Egyptian Pyramids. It’s the form of your family tree, the form of Government, and the form of every business model out there, no matter what type of business it is. But somehow, people find it more comforting, more socially acceptable, to start at the bottom of a pyramid and work their way UP, rather than starting at the top and building something beneath them. Are they not worthy of being a leader?
You do have one guarantee in your current job…you will NEVER make more money that your boss, let alone the President or CEO or your company.
Countless people are running successful businesses, making absolute fortunes working from home, utilizing the internet. This is the age of hybrid businesses with brilliant marketing techniques and most people don’t even know that these opportunities even exist or how to get started. Worse, these opportunities are simply dismissed as scams because we have been brainwashed that you go to school, get an education, and then GET A J.O.B. to climb the corporate ladder. It’s drilled into our heads that anything that we have to pay money into, in order to get paid, is a scam. My momma told me “Never, ever, ever pay someone money, with the promise of making it rich.”
Let’s look at a current business model of what your current employer could have done in order to recruit you into his or her business.
• Franchise or start up fees of $100,000 to $500,000.
• Waiting four-years until your business clears a profit.
• Overhead, hassle, of hiring staff or an expensive office.
• Working 60-80 hours a week or being a slave to their business.
Yet, when you look at this model, you’re not thinking scam or pyramid. (Maybe, how in the world does someone come up with 100 G’s?) But if someone asks you for a one time set up fee for this franchise of $400 and $50 a month, everyone scrambles to the internet to see if it’s a scam. Maybe you’ve been “burned” one too many times, or, maybe it just sounds “too good to be true”.
I didn’t find this business and make a gazillion dollars my first year, but I will tell you this. The money I saved just on our taxes alone last year because of owning my own Home Based Business, more that quadrupled the amount of money I spent to start and maintain this business. This includes all the training I took and the odds and ends expenses of promotional materials, business cards, internet access, and cell phone usage. I made all that money back and then some, my first year. My company and what I do with YTB is approved by the IRS. The amount of money that I did make in my spare time gave me a couple of nice new things and enabled me to spend more time with my family when I wanted. It made me think about what I could do with this if I worked it like a Part Time job. Devoting just 20 hours a week, talking to people to either book their next vacation, or show them how they can have their own business.
Yes, it helps if you open you mouth and actually talk to people. That may terrify you. You’re not talking about some $40 bottle of juice that they need to drink because you have thousands of dollars worth of boxes stocked up in your garage. Take a look at my inventory at BandBVacations.com. Who does not want something like this?
I’ve got a question for you, and I’d like you to answer this honestly. Would you like to take a vacation? I nor anyone I know has ever gotten a “No” to that question! What in the world are you afraid of?
Is YTB a scam? You’ve got to be kidding me. It’s a legitimate business model that has changed lives, including mine. I love the fact that I found a business that doesn’t require a lot of money to start, and is and easy product to talk about. I’ve been telling people for years that “A cruise is the best vacation money can buy.” But now when I tell someone that, I get paid a commission by helping them take that cruise or by simply pointing them to me web site to book it by themselves. If they book it with Barry Dillar, who spent $53 Billion to start Expedia, he sends them a confirmation.
Whether or not you choose to believe anything I say is entirely up to you. I’m not into convincing people that they need this business. I also understand you may have some questions. I’ll give you honest, no hype answers. It not about what’s in it for me, it’s about what’s in it for you. You have my contact information below and I do that for a reason. Even if someone else has introduced you to this awesome business, I don’t care. I want to help you.
That’s the YTB way.
