Keep in mind the setup, transaction fees, the contract minimums that you agree to, maintenance costs and development expenditures.


Read all contracts prior to signing anything. Pay special attention to any exclusivity clauses that may be hiding in there somewhere.

Hi, My name is John Fisher I live in sunny Miramar,FLorida.Married(happily) and we have six children and two grandchildren. I'm a mechanic and my wife is a nurse(LPN) Back in 2005-2006.the hospital industry made some changes.They phased out the LPN positions and my wife lost here job just like that. The markets crashed,work got slow,and before too long the eviction notice was on our door. It become necessary to suppliment my income by doing side work(as a mechanic) in the evenings after my job and on weekends. Thankfully,we were able to hold on to our home.Eventually,my wife was able to make it back to school to become an RN(she loves nursing).She will be taking her exams next month. I still have to work my regular job and hustle. This makes for long days and precious little time for family or self. So every morning ,I psych myself up,put myself together to face another day the best way I can. Recently,I took a weeks vacation and spent it working(doing side work) simply because we needed the income. I realized that I did not want to continue like this. I needed to make a change. The question was 'Change to what?' Another job? Seems like I'd just be trading one bad situation for another. And at my age(I'm 51). I'd been trying internet marketing for awhile with no success. Sometimes I'd fail because I didn't have the resources.Was even encouraged to seek funding through loans at times.Well no one would loan me money. Other times,I simply failed because I was doing it wrong.Completely my fault. Well,long story short.I was introduced to what I think is an awesome business. One where I'm actually helping people to live healthy and awesome lives while providing an income for my family and myself. One where you actually get training and support without having to spend a fortune to learn the secret. I'm still new to this,and learning as I go. And like I said,I'm unable to walk away from my current job now, but if I continue to grow in this awesome business the way I have, it'll just be a matter of time,and it should'nt be too long. If you are in a similar position, -a job you hate -not enough money -no time for family -or for whatever reason, you just want or need a change in your life,then you owe it to yourself. Take a look Help yourself by helping others. Thank you for your time, Partner in your success John Fisher bullajohn1@gmail.com
