 There are MANY closing team for Coastal, and no the Coastal Closers is NOT a part of WCYS system.
 
 Like I said, I am not sure if Vacation Power's movie will end up on WCYS, it is an idea we are considering....
 
 For making sales on your own, if you close your own deal.... well, first you need to be a director to take your own sale, but if you closed one on your own, here is what you'll need to do.
 
 1. send $1000 to your upline if you are not qualified
 2. send $700 to the call center to cover their fee
 3. send $320 to NB Management in Florida to fulfill shipping of product.
 
 If you did not use the call center to put the new person into, then the #'s are just
 
 $1000 to the distributor
 $320 to NB management to cover shipping.

 So when you send the money to NB management do you have a form to fill out with the new person's info to send the package to? Also, my understanding was I have to give my director my first 2 Level 2 or 3 sales through WCYS so if I was to sell a package independently (unlikely at this point) I would get to keep the commission, right?
 My shipping cost for Level 2 was $180 through WCYS. Is it only $30 for Level 1 or are there different prices for different areas/countries and how can I find those out?
 
 Thanks Jeff
 
 Judy

 Hi Judy,
 
 Have you received your Director's Release?  Until you have it, you will not be able to keep any commissions.
 
 If you sell a package on your own, that will become a passed up sale to your Upline Director - though it won't count for WCYS unless they join under the call center.
 
 Gary, Judy is talking about WCYS, which is a call center that offers to sell Coastal for its members.  To use their services, you must join with them, so if WCYS isn't your group, then that is why you didn't receive any information about them.

 Oops,
 
 Gary, I just saw that you ARE with WCYS!
 
 So, ignore my post and I'll stop being "helpful"

 Tonya,
 you can count retail sales or sales without the call center as qualifying sales if the director chooses to do so. He just has to let the call center know that the person is or will be qualified with sale made outside the call center and they will adjust the computer profile for that member.

 Not all directors will do it but I think it helps the new member get in the green quicker so I will do it. The call center doesn't care one way or the other.

 Quoting: Judy  I would take the money and then send the BOD their money and they would ship it out to the client? Is that correct?
 Hi Judy,
 
 Yes.  You or your director will make the sale.  Then send the wholesale price of the membership to the shipping center.  The shipping center drop shipps the membership to your client.

 tonya
 no problem, but i still never heard of v/p. i just went to their site and read alot. is it keyword optimized?do you need ppc or some other online ad to have people find it. i used ppc now,but i want to test something else like v/p which is more cost effective, but how do people find it w/o ppc. i guess news ads etc.i like the exposure i get on ppc, but right now its getting to rich for my blood until i get some equity in my biz.any reccomendations on getting the v/p site out there.

 Hi Harold,
 
 Just to clarify - if Judy does get a sale, but that person does not join with WCYS (ie, pays the call center commission) then she can pass it up for credit.  That option is available with the Closers too.
 
 But, that person will not be able to use WCYS (or the Closers) as they didn't pay the fee for the services of the Call Center.
 
 I only mention this because I have had quite a few people need clarification on the subject, just as Judy is asking the question now.  When you are with a Center, but offer the choice of joining Coastal either way, it can be a bit confusing to people who are still investigating.

 That is true, Tonya. If you don't join through the call center you definitely can't use it to market or make sales. That's why it is always best to decide if a call center option is best for you BEFORE you join some other team. I have had so many come to me saying they wished they had seen my site first, before they decided to join because they want the call center option.

 I've had it happen more then a few times in reverse.. they found that the call centre option did not work for them at all and was not worth the extra costs, marketing can be extremely difficult in circular competition if your director does not provide outside resources, time consuming and often expensive.  So, it begs to the importance of first very carefully looking at what will work for you, and the reality of the system before you join any group and/or director.

 Bottom line is to ask ques before you join a group or team, but sometimes you really can't tell if it will be worth the money until you do join, so I would suggest that you follow your DIRECTOR'S advice,  capitalize on their knowledge.
 
 Sometimes it will take joining a few groups before you find what clicks for you.
 
 I joined a few groups and left after a few months BUT have stuck with WCYS because their training, resources and entry level product is worth the $49.95 a month.
 
 Wishing you success!
 
 Terri

 I've been enjoying success with Coastal for over 4 years now.  I've had people from EVERY group call me asking questions about HOW I've been able to be successful.
 
 I can tell you that the GROUP...has NOTHING to do with your success, unless you are going to piggy back on their success.  I've had a group piggy back on my success...and it really boils down to 1 key thing....People want to be successful.
 
 In a Nutshell, it's VERY IMPORTANT that you keep it simple and DO NOT over complicate things....you have options.  Do you want to be a Social Club or a Business??  I've ALWAYS, run a business - and I've keep the door open to assist my team members who required help.
 
 Here's what you DO NOT need.  You don't need Big Bash Trainings, info packs, training cds or call sessions with a big group.
 
 We get paid to Talk To People...That's It!  It's simple and when you learn how to market your business, build a team and build the residuals into your business...you have EVERYTHING required to be successful

 Quoting: ibizniz I feel that there is are 2 groups that will become totally their own entity in a short period of time.
 As expected the Coastal Synergy Group has begun marketing vacation certificates.  I'm confident this is the first step in getting away from Coastal.

 Hi Terri,
 
 I'd post the url, but posting the url promotes the CSG and I will no longer do that.

 Thanks Jay but I did find it.
 
 I am wondering if it is a FT package or did CSG get different vendors.
