Liberty League, if you go on the internet and look for a home based business, chances are you've come across Liberty League International. Is it all its hype up to be or is it , a really flawed program which happens to be over-hyped? As someone who has been involved in Liberty League International for almost a year, I feel that I am qualified to speak to these issues.
The level one product is a personal development course entitled "Beyond Freedom". The course consists of a workbook, journal, plastic goal cards (the size of credit cards), a couple of pens, a set of 3 cds, a dvd, a pad of "post-it"s with beyond freedom inscribed on each and a wristband which is inscribed with "your life begins NOW". That's it and that retails for $1,495.00 plus $30.00 shipping. What is the true value of the product as a stand alone product? I know that yo can purchase a high quality journal for about $15.95, so you be the judge.
Taking a look at the compensation plan which is touted to be "second to none" in the industry, here are a few items to consider. The business model is an "Australian 2-up" which is known to be one of the most flawed plans in the home business industry. It also means that your first two "training sales" are passed up to your adviser. The pitch is that every person you sponsor will pass -up their first two "training sales to you, and those two will in turn pass-up their first two (which makes four) and so on, and so on. Don't believe it, just Google Australian 2-up and read what other experts are saying.
Also it might be prudent to picture yourself in your adviser's shoes. What I mean is that after you have passed up two sales to your adviser, what interest do they have in helping you. Do you think you and your adviser might be in competition for the same business now? How many new 'Secrets" that your adviser learns do you think they will want to share with you?
You will be encouraged to purchase both a Liberty Conference (3 day) and a Summit Conference (5 day) ticket. The Liberty ticket retails for $7,995 and your adviser, if they are "qualified" will earn a profit of $5,000 for the sale. The Summit ticket retails for $12,995 with your adviser earning a profit of $8,000. You are told that the reason you should do this is to capitalize your business properly. You are also told that you must take this step in order to be able to qualify to earn future profits on purchases of these tickets by your associates.
The process can be somewhat confusing. First you hear that you can start this home based business opportunity for only $1,495.00 and the next thing you know you learn that in order to earn like the champions you'll have to capitalize your business with another $20,990.00. The business model is also somewhat complex because your adviser must have four people on their register after you purchase either the Liberty or Summit Conference tickets in order for you to "qualify for profit" If they are not actively marketing, which many are not, you'll have to pass up these sales in order to qualify yourself. This means that you'll also be passing up as much as $65,000.00 in total "profits" to your adviser. How does that sit with you?
Please, whatever you do don't just take my word for any of this, do some research on your own. Google "Australian 2-up" and you'll find a lot of information about the compensation plan, you can even scroll down and see where a class action lawsuit was filed against Liberty League International recently. Google "Liberty League International", and scroll down to the "Ripoff Report". And then after you've done your due diligence, make your decision.
