 Yes, I have!
 
 It is a great thing for dropping off to people whom you meet in passing.  Keep one in your car (in my case the diaper bag!! haha!)  It comes in very handy!

 Hi Lindsay:
 The description could be found here:
 http://www.csgmarketplace.com/Business_Tools.html
 
 I don't think I'm an expert yet, but I've been learning the internet since 1991. Way back then, hardly anybody ever heard of the world wide web.
 
 I just wish I was brilliant enough to be one of the founders of google or yahoo, but maybe that'll be my next big thing, to be bigger than google
  
 Take Care,
 Robert

 Hi Robert,
 Glad to hear you're diving right into it, that's great.
 My humble opinion however is you don't need to spend all that money as you get started. It might be an idea down the road as you make money but quite frankly it's just an unnecessary expense. I've seen the Street Smart CEO and it looks good and I'm sure all the other paraphenelia is great too....I'm just here to say you will make sales based on your belief and your enthusiasm -  remember the reasons why you joined Coastal!
 
 I'm sure your Director is helping you with your marketing strategies so I'd lean to him or her about this....unless you have a really healthy budget to start with, one of the easiest things to do is go broke before you've even begun!

 Hi Roger:
 My director advised me that it would be better to stick with the premium Coastal leads, instead of starting with the CSG Ultimate Decision Making Package or Street Smart CEO.
 
 When I buy the premier package, do I immediately get a director's release?  If so, does my director receive any benefit after I've received my director's release?
 
 Thank You,
 Robert

 You definately shouldn't get a director's release just for buying a package. You should only get a release after you have made you training sales.  After you make you two pass up training sales you will be totally free and clear of your director.

 Hi Robert,
 
 If you purchase a Premier package, you don't automatically get your director's release. You must still do your training sales. Depending on your director's perspective, you could do 2 sales of any level, you could do 2 sales of the highest level....you will have to ask him/her what she prefers.
 
 Hope that helps,
 Lindsay

 Except.. who wants to be "free and clear" from their director?  I made did my training and qualified as an L3.  I still am in regular contact with her and get great support and advice when I need it!
 
 That is the absolute BEAUTY of this business, and one of the hallmarks of the CSG at least.  You are in business FOR yourself but never BY yourself!
 
 But yes, absolutely, to stay within BOD guidelines you must first make your 2 training sales to earn the right to your release which then allows you to order the packages for your clients at wholesale and sell retail.  The system really is beautiful in its effectiveness.  When you get that release in your hand, you know you can do it again and again!
 
 Best of luck to you Robert, and CONGRATULATIONS!
 
 Jani Teeter
 L3 Director, CSG

 Maybe I should have specified "Free and Clear FINANCIALLY" from your director. You won't owe them any more sales but, if they are a good director, they will still be helping you from now on. I still talk to my director a couple of times a week and he is still a great help even though I don't owe him any more sales. One other thing I love about the call center is that you might even get help from directors who aren't even in your upline. I spent over an hour on the phone with another directors member who saw my posts on this forum and emailed me. We had a great conversation and I didn't mine helping him one little bit. We're all one big family!

 Yup.. I think its the same with all the groups..  I have several directors in the CSG that I network, exchange ideas with etc.  Even will do edification for each other, or send each other prospects that might be better fits for thier expertise and needs.
 
 For example, I do not specialize in retail but have a good friend on the PERT team I will send people do if that is what they wish to pursue.
 
 Works great!  Everyone wins!

 The PERT team is a group of volounteers within the CSG that specialize in marketing and promoting our products retail and having current and up to date product knowledge.  They have special calls and you can submit questions to them if you need to know something and can't find the answer in the dashboard library.
 
 PERT stands for product education and retail team.

 My pleasure Terri!
 
 I'm glad to see you are finding it easy to use and helpful for your business!
 
 You are welcome to use my global theatre gateway at any time to view and learn yourself or have guests to either the business presentation or the PERT team product presentations.  They are wonderful!  Also the PERT team hosts regular and special calls frequently.  Check the calendar for those details.
 
 My global theatre can be accessed at [Link removed - Admin] I would welcome you to the CSG university as well, but at this time it is for professional subscribers only.
 
 Cheers

 My pleasure, Roger!
 
 Get on the mac system trainings bi-weekly if you can.  The system is so very powerful, I hit those every once in a while and always learn something new that it can do!  Sure beats microsoft outlook!

 I'm almost blushing now, Jani.....thanks for the invite but I've been through it already and it's a good system. I looked at other groups too including CSG and I decided on the Call Center simply because it worked better for me and I'm very happy I did!
 
 There is some great things about the CSG and some great things about the Call Center, people will have to make up their minds as to which system they prefer.
 
 As long you get the support you need from the Director you feel right about, the system will act as a by-product to your success. The reality is it starts with you first, and just how badly do you want it?

 Exactly!  I truly think its about YOU first, Director second and group 3rd!  I know there is many successful people out there working with Directors and NO group.  Groups provide great tools and resources, but without that good leadership and your desire, the group is useless!  I'm proud of my group, and very grateful for the support of the CSG and my director for making me into a better version of the person I always was.  The tools and support have made my journey smoother- but in the end the responsibility and acheivement was MINE.  I own it, and I know that no matter what challenges I face in any aspect of my life and future the lessons I have learned will allow me to rise to my success again and again.
 
 To me, that example I set for my daughter about being a strong woman who adds something to the world is the very most important thing that Coastal and the CSG has done for me.  I can be a single mother, I can be a stay at home, work at home mom, I can be successful, I can DO anything I can DREAM of.  I don't think setting that example and showing her that same gift within herself can carry ANY pricetag.
 
 Cheers

 awww.. thanks so much Robert!  I appreciate that!
 
 I've lived here a long time and have memory and recall issues at the best of times.  It happens!  That is why I  am so grateful for the organization features of my CSG MAC system.  I simply could NOT run my business without it!
