Hello Mary,

Point1 -

Thank You

Pont2 -

Maybe, but most likely they will bypass it because the costs are high.  A couple of years ago I blew a sizable amount of money on a game deal.  Finding players willing to pay to play and advertisers for the placement in the games was a very challenging task that I personally failed at accomplishing.  So I do speak from experience on this topic.  Not everyone is going to share the same enthusiasm as you and I, no matter what the venture.  But they are more likely to take it for a whirl when the buy in is much lower.

Point3 -

The ones I use in my example are a all free.  Some pay you prize money or points for the number of games you have played.  The one with a cost involved offers you a very reasonable price point 30 bucks for a years worth of playing ad free.  I hate ads myself.

Point4 -

So you will be one of the first to upgrade and capitalize from all your hard efforts.  I applaud you.  Now for you to really maximize your position you will be prodding your team to follow their leader.  You are the Leader here in this scenario.  That is why you are so involved in the leaders launch of this I hope.  As there is a potential pay-off for you, when and if they do. 

Bear in mind many of these communities are waiting for that platform to be built out so they too can prod their members to become active players, partners and leaders.  In hopes of profit.  They have chosen to wait and see how the games and the platform they reside on comes along.  There will be 100's of thousands of these all hopeful they will be in the 2% that are actually the big winners.

200,000 hopefuls is true and the keyword is hopeful.  I would be willing to bet less than 5-6% will actually invest at launch.  If they are in your personal team you will be a huge success.  I hope this is true for you as I really value you as a friend and I hope and pray for the best for all my friends.

Thanks for a great discussion, Mary.

Respectfully,

Jim

Hi Jim, I meant to come back while this forum thread was still active. I see now that you are basing your conclusions and warnings on past experience where you got stung. Of course no guarentees exist on the internet. Your warning should at least cause people to do some investigating. I wanted to say that you warned about not being able to pay for the site nor the liscence fee. If one studies the pay plan you will see that the fees should be covered if the business was built duirng pre-launch or you know some mlm skills. If you don't have the base, you better know and trust who you sign under. The whole plan is based on the hope that your upline does what the company teaches--you get three and teach them how to get three. That being done the fees are covered by the fast start bonus ($100 per active associate on the first level as $20 per active person on the second level). Another bonus based on pool of company funds is to cover the $65 liscence fee. If the teams don't pull together and generate that much, one may have to pay some of the fee. As for me, I am fortunate to be in the direct line of some fabulous marketers who not only have built a great team but have taught me how to do the same. Likewise I am teaching my people. So far so good as we approach launch day. If you or Peter are interested in trying this out you can have use of the site for 7 days at no cost. Then you can delay joining through Jan. before making a final decision. No one should be pressured to buy a $200 business but really have any of you ever paid for one site, $1,2000 or $4,000. For $200 I get the biz site to conduct my business and the com site which is the gaming platform plus the social site to come. For three phases of business: social networking. gaming, and network marketing it seems like a bargin. As this is beginning, ground floor of the business, one can be assured that as we take and keep the serious people (free site brought the curious) we will be in good hands with uVme, VDW Inc. I for one am ready for Jan 21 and will merely stop advertising to people who haven't been here for 4 years and concentrate on real live, "I can talk to you", people. I am ready to put my money where I get something back in return.

Hey Mary,

Thanks for coming by and proving all the points I made.

I have been party to the program since it's inception 15 months ago, however, I reserved my promotions for other venues.  Parvis is a Great networker and will be an awesome sponsor for all that choose to pay to play. :-)

I really enjoyed watching you hone your skills while campaigning for POTW a few weeks ago.  First time I have ever seen someone campaign for an award of honor here.  In their own behalf.

 You won!  Yeeehaaa!

Time here should not bear on whom you are willing to communicate with, I am surprised that you would make such a statement.  Do you really believe that being in this community for so many years gives you some special status?  That is less than I expected from you Mary. 

The fact that your advertising in this community has been ineffective shows that maybe, you are going about this in the wrong way or, you haven't got the opportunity folks are interested in joining up with you.

As for spending big bucks on sites and opportunities, I have made many such investments some good most bad.  When I was a newbie I was enticed by great copy and hypnotic copywriting.  However I learned much from these mistakes and failures and now I try to steer people clear of such opportunities.   But what does this have to do with this issue?

In your recent posts I see and feel very negative vibes and this may be the issue. 

Perhaps you should try and be more positive in your posts.  Or perhaps go back to what was working for you helping others learn the ins and outs of ALP.

I do wish you the best of luck and much success.

Respectfully,

Jim
