5 concerns will be addressed: 7 day wait etc- 1. 7 day waiting period would not be acceptable for Quixtar IBO's. Quixtar offers a money back if not satisfied. Reference requirement etc- 2. This is a strong infringement on privacy with Quixtar IBO's. Give prospects a list of lawsuits, etc for the past 10 years etc - 3. This would open up Quixtar IBO's to false accusations. Dishonest companies would simply ignore this rule. Income claim etc- 4. This is not necessary AT ALL Provide prospects with personal financial info etc- 5. IBO's should not be required to disclose any type of income to prospects, especially about prior experiences, even though this is good for Quixtar and all of the direct sell industry. There should be a less burdensome way to accomplish this goal that is said in the FTC rule.
