Comments:
I have been an IBO since 1976. I have sponsored hundreds of people, none of whom were ever coerced into believing that they could make tons of money. Each new prospect is properly informed of a code of ethics which among them is truthfulness. Quixtar has always adhered to the satisfaction guaranteed or a full refund. This includes returning all monies paid for a business starter kit. I believe our Declaration of Independence guarantees each of us the right to pursue liberty and happiness among other things. I believe that what I do is show individuals a way to secure some of that liberty and happiness. The choice is theirs to make and that’s what freedom means. They have the right to choose. In closing, adding these rules will put a barrier between a person’s natural desires to succeed. What if you told every kindergarten student that some students never make the honor role or never graduate from High School? What if you drilled into every student that many will never make more than $20,000 annually? Where then is the will to do better? We are supposed to be encouragers, not defeatist. A Quixtar IBO ship is an opportunity and with the support of the upline and the fine line of products from Alticor it will succeed.
