Comments:

I became an IBO with Quixtar/BWW nine months ago. I have now achieved the level of Silver which is the beginning qualification of Platinum. There were sufficient information providede during registration to enable me to make an informed decision to register. It was clearly stated that this is not a "get rich quick" scheme. Hard work was required and you would need to ork smart. There are no guarantee of of success. The seven days waiting proposal would definately affect obtaining a new prospect as this allow prospect being prospected by others and hold p the opportunity of the particular prospect to forg ahead with his business and in addition will definately be persuaded not to register by negativity of non-believers. Providing references would make it possible for the prospect to register with others than yourself.Providing names, address's and phone numbers would certainly violate our privacy. Prospects who would meet with other IBO's could conflict of business opportunty. Litigation Lists is not available to each IBO. Specific average earnings disclosure is currently shown during showing the business plan. Further potential earnings disclosure would definately attract unwanted business and after all would be a time consuming excercise. Showing the business plan with specific details in a short period of time is the key as prospects would get bored of lengthy business plans.
