Gwendy13's comment on Online Business Systems ...
Online Business Systems
I recently became interested in work from home opportunities. I have yet to find one that would work for me or isn't a scam.
I tried OBS. All of the previous comments are true, however I did not read anyone commenting about how much the business package costs. I did see some other fees I hadn't come across yet but I am sure they would be there. This business is basically a middleman that teaches you with great training how to set up your own business. They do however seem to want to keep everything from you until after you pay. I did pay the 9.95 but I will be returning this. I did receive the booklet. It was crap, just more pump you up testimonials. I was reluctant to add my real number so I put a fake one. That way I got emails instead trying to coo me into learning about them. That gave me a few days to actually learn more about them on my own. Then I decided to email the "Coach" back and included my "new number"
I did ask in the email that she tell me what the products were and what I would be doing in an email before she called me so I would know whether I wanted to participate. She never did, she just called.
I sat on the phone for 20 minutes while we got patched into a three way call with the main guy from the video that shook his hands in front of him a lot.
It was during that call they dropped the bombshell on me about paying for my start up package. They did give me two options:
Option 1 Basic Distributor Package. Basically you sell door to door or to your friends and family only.
Option 2 (the obvious option) Online Business System Package.
This is where they send you various products such as Registration for doing business in all countries, how to make 25 percent gross profit, training manual, 1 month supply of products to try at home, Herbal Life training manual, registered live training, and an online office. This package is purchased for a small convenient fee of 399.
I did not have the money to waste on something I didn't even know if it would work or not.
I told my coach I didn't have that kind of money and she said that in the beginning neither did she and she had to put it on a credit card and make it her goal to pay it off. Obviously trying to steer me in that direction. I said I would think about it and I did and the answer will be no. I just am not in the position to throw away money if I don't understand what is going on.
Now my final thoughts about this business is.
It might be a great, lucrative opportunity and you may get a lot of money back and that is great. However I do think they should tell you absolutely everything up front. How much you will have to invest in your own business plan and telling you step by step instructions to let you know what you may be missing or what you're in for. Not just Hello Listen to this testimonial and a story from us about how we came from doing nothing and now we make lots of money. So give me some of yours and you can be like me.
You should have heard the conversation.
After the live call she was like the next step is to pay and get plugged in so how do you want to pay. I told her I didn't have money for that I am sorry but I can't... big pause... Well um I didn't either and I got a credit card and then paid it off. I said I don't know I don't have very much information and I don't feel like giving money out for something that no one really explains.... another long pause. She said well alright I will give you 24 hours to think about it.
I am happy that she did because I am not going to waste any money that is needed for my family on something like this.
Although if you did have a few thousand dollars to invest it might be a great opportunity, but I will never know because they wont tell you anything until you have already invested a certain amount. They figure since you have already paid x amount of money why not pay a little more instead of letting that first amount go to waste. I don't want to be stuck in that option. So my decision is to move on and get a real job.
