Liberty League Opportunity or Scam By Candi May

As I looked into Liberty League as a possibility for a working at home and did my due diligence, I came across some interesting points that where worthy of passing on.

With the ever increasing cutbacks in Corporate America and all the downsizing taking place more and more people are looking to work from home to break free from the bondage of trading time for dollars or worse yet, another statistic in the downsizing whirlpool. Because of this, many have jumped into some high dollar Companies with no success. Does Liberty League fall into this category? How do they measure up in the home business arena?

Here are some important points that should be examined before jumping in to this company or any other for that matter.

Who is Running the Company?

LLI is based in Scottsdale Arizona with Co founders Brent Payne and Shane Krider at the helm.

What do they offer and what is the price tag to join?

The company markets products in! the personal growth and development market for educational and training purposes. To get started with Liberty, the new person must first pay $1495 to become a Liberty League associate. And that enables that person to start marketing but but not instantly profiting (will explain that shortly) in this program. Other products include the Liberty Conference which is a 3-day personal development seminar priced at $8000 and the Summit Conference which is a 5-day personal development seminar price at $13000.

And more costs!

Also keep in mind that in order to run this business, you need to spend $39.95 a month on the replicated website, $19.95 a month for an 800 number (expensive as I know of many 800 services that are less costly), $99 quarterly to have access to their PROLINK conference system, and at least $200 a month on leads from their self-owned lead company, Extreme Leads.

What is the Compensation Plan?

The business opportunity consists ! of an Australian 2-Up compensation plan with a payout of $1000! for eve ry sale made by the qualified affiliate. Here is where the not instantly profiting part comes in. The affiliate does not become qualified to receive that $1000 commission till he has passed up the first two sales to his sponsor. This means they must give almost $3500 ( $1000 x 2 + $1495 start up = $3495) before they can earn any money with the program. Another issue with Liberty League's 2-Up program is that if you bring in someone who makes a sale or two per day, you only get their first 2 sales and then you no longer get paid on their efforts. They then breakaway from the sponsor and actually end up becoming the competition. This doesn't give the qualified Liberty League sponsoring associate much motivation to help the new associate since they will ultimately become competition.

In Review

For someone that wants to start a home business this is going to be a rough route to go that has never been in the sales arena. Most people have a tough time and don't w! ant to spend time on the phone calling leads. Also it is discouraging for that newbie to pass up that much money to their sponsor. I would only recommend this to the experienced marketer that does not mind passing up sales.

Comments:
Candi, the presumed author of this article seems to be more interested in tearing down the company than in actually presenting facts. Much of the information is obviously hearsay and other parts of this article are simply untrue statements that have been floating around the Internet for years.

For instance, the article claims that the startup cost is $1,495. Not true. The only required purchase to get started in Liberty League is the new Associate starter kit for $49.95.

Yep. Only $49.95.

There is no produce purchase required for someone to participate in the business at any level. So, while we certainly recommend that associates are also familiar with our products.....no, the startup fee is not $1,495 as this article would have you believe.

The article unravels in other areas, too. We haven't used the "Prolink" system in years...literally.

And $200 a month on leads? Not at all. I know lots of people in Liberty League who don't even use purchased leads. They use the training provided by the company to produce all the interested prospects they want.

As for the compensation plan, it IS true that a person becomes an Advisor by passing up their first two sales.

Is this really as challenging as Candi May would have you believe? I don't think so. Which is better: to pass up two sales once and start earning 100% of your own profits.....or being in an MLM and seeing a large percentage of your profits roll up to your upline every single month?

I got started with Liberty League in March of 2005. I followed the system as it as taught on the training calls and earned $15,000 in personal net income in my first 30 days.

In fact, at the time of this writing, I've earned more than $51,000 in the last 30 days in Liberty League International. And I've done it almost entirely while traveling, enjoying my family and working the business a couple of hours a day.

In fact, you can see pictures of our current trip at http://gallery.mac.com/tonyrush .

As for Candi May, I will simply say that she's obviously very good at posting this same article many times on the Net as a way of trying to attract visitors to her business.

But what kind of success philosophy is that? Posting articles to tear down other companies in hopes that someone will click her link to find out what she's doing?

I don't know about that. I simply know that joining Liberty League is the smartest thing I've ever done financially.

And if the reader is looking for a legitimate home based business to join, they would do well to make sure they're talking to someone who's actually LIVING the lifestyle that they want....not just throwing darts on the Internet.

To your IMMEDIATE success,

Tony Rush
