Forever Green Leads


FOREVER GREEN LEADS

Buy customers not leads Published by Joyce McFarland


Forever Green.


Forever Green is a fine company.


Forever Green is more than 4 years old now and the President, Ceo and Leader of the Board, Ron Williams and his board are responsible for making their company expand. They now have many lines of products. vitamins, minerals, energy drink, skin care, herbs, snacks, meals and the list continues to grow. They are proud of their company and have used innovative ways to make their business the best.


Forever Green has accomplished this challenge by forging new operations or expanding existing models in several new countries, while continuing to report increased or positive net income. Forever Green now has operations in the U.S., Canada, Mexico, U.K., Germany, Netherlands, Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, and Japan. I am sure there will be more coming in soon.


Forever Green's management team has been able to do many fine things. There is both executives and middle management. They also have a product and management team that attract leaders. The management is the first thing that is looked at when examining a company. Anyone that is thinking of getting involved or choosing a company to invest your time, influence, and money should examine closely the leadership and management.


Forever Green compensation plan is a unilevel, maximized by building 4 legs. They have Fast Start and Matching Bonuses. They pay a large percentage of their profit to their distributors. They announced earnings for their second quarter, June 30th 2007, had increased 700% quarter over quarter. I have not seen figures for any earnings since that date.


Their training is much like most MLM companies. They have Cutting Edge media Leads that the distributor can buy. The cost is $1.99 to $2.13 each depending on the number they buy. Their plan is a four point plan. They promote the use of these leads, have a 6 minute sizzler call that a new prospect can bring their client to hear, back up with a 3-way call with their upline to bring the new person in. They also have training calls and supply good support to their new distributor.


A new person could be delighted with this plan. Their training is not much different from any of the other companies out there. They all have very much the same training plans. For the distributor, leads are first thought of as a great way to go because they do not have to lean on their friends and relatives to grow their business. So the new distributor orders leads and is given a script to use to call the leads. Sometimes there is information that tell when the best time is to call. This is of little importance as it does not mean they will be there at that time.


So the first call can be made when specified. The next call could be morning , the next call evening and on and on. Many leads are unreachable. They are either not home or they are not answering their phone. When you do reach one of your leads, you may not get the reception you thought you would. They may tell you in no uncertain terms that you are the 10th person that has called and they are not interested and they tell you this in a very harsh and rude way. They end the conversation with don't call me again and take me off your list. They may have cussed as well.


It can be very disheartening, disappointing and shocking. You will probably find someone who will talk with you and lead you on to think they are interested and you soon find it to not be true. So many stories one could tell about calling leads. Hopefully you will find at least one person that shows interest.


There is a better way. I Buy Customers. I Don't Buy Leads.


Buying customers is much easier and much more rewarding. I don't have to make calls to people who aren't interested. I don't have to dread making calls. My customers buy product and my company sends me a commission check. It is rewarding and uplifting. I now have time to spend more time with my family and help my church and my community. I love to help people and now I have the time and can afford to do just that. If you would like to learn more about this, give me a call after you listen to:
It's Good Business.
