>>Fred, Dan Ackerson(NXTL CEO) is on the Board of Directors of AOL. Believe me,he knows.>> Come on gentlemen....what are you waiting for??? Overlay an MLM onto your plans for growth going forward. Be part of this networking game. You've already started this with your work with Indirects. I'd like to see Nextel right there with IBM, Direct TV and AOL as a partner in this deal. >>AOL has teamed up with Direct TV and IBM (and, of course, Netscape) tobring the world the most incredible opportunity I have ever seen in my 12+ years of network marketing. This is the kind of thing we professional networkers dream of, to be at the top of something so big that it's scary! This is NOT the online service and ISP operation, in fact, all those 15 MILLION AOL customers are available to US as customers/reps. I joined after seeing the product/services menu: DIRECTV - Satellite TV IBM Aptiva Computers Metrocall Wireless e-mail AOL Select Visa Cards What a great group of Product Partners !>> The networking side of my organization has been invited to be a Founding Partner. AOL is hosting Presidential Founders at a weekend meeting at AOL headquarters in Virginia, January 22-24. If I go I will have much more information after that time. This announcement is a HUGE shot across every companies bow. AOL is going for the jugular. I know network marketing is great, but I also know that its been ridiculed and having researched the topic and spoken to many successful marketers over the past several months - as I have gotten myself and others involved - I can say there are many horror stories and bodies buried from all the deals that collapse. The amazing success of Amazon.com's affiliate programs and AOL partnershiping programs with major cos. means this thing is finally going mainstream. The beauty is that Nextel is already in the catbird's seat with the business market. When you take the time to Baby Step people through the model - networking, sharing, immediacy, groups, growth, going high, increased energy, etc. - you would not believe how many people want Nextel phones. The Nextel DC network is a MLM's organization's dream. Instant connectivity. Instant answers to questions involving programs, products, services, payouts, etc. We are planning to wrap Nextel into the connectivity technology package we are planning to rollout to the securities industry. We already have traders and firms here in Chicago on our network working with us. It really streamlines development. I want Nextel to go MLM because of the huge warm-market connectivity benefits this can bring to increase sales and feedback to the average Joe broker in the securities business. "Zap" your full-service broker to trade!! Expensive, but what a concept!
