Okay I stand corrected, CWB did not say anything "against" CSG.

For those who wondered about whether a TA could offer a Condo from the Condo card, I spoke with Stephanie, and yes a TA could get the rate on a condo and sell it for more if they want to a client.

However they would probably be better off selling the entire package to the client.

Oh that is VERY COOL to know Terri! Hmm.. though I wonder how the administration bit would work then? Did you happen to find that bit out? I think the agent would like kinda bad if the client found out what their commission was?

Hello all! Question: when a person buys Coastal from me retail to use as business incentives, that is a tax deductible purchase, correct?

It's part of their advertising buget if they use it for clients, and there is probably a line item in tax software for incentives for employees? I'd hate to tell them it's' a deduction if it's not, although they'd probably already know. I'd just like to be sure. Thanks in advance for any help here.

Also, retailers, any script (or just notes even) that you use when calling for the retail appt. would be greatly appreciated. Or if you use a letter of intro. I'm in virgin Coastal territory here in my state and want to take advantage of it!!

Yes, it is a tax deductable purchase for the business! I don't know what the forms look like though. I would have them talk to their accountant in their specific state /province.

Lots of resources from scripts to brochures in the CSG's Street Smart CEO!

That is an interesting response about reselling the condo week. From my experience (and it is with only one vendor - Spirit Incentives) I had to mail in the voucher to get the glossy, which was then activated under my name specifically with an identifying code.

So, when I called to book the vacation, they verified both the code and my name before they would move forward. This leads me to believe that reselling that condo vacation would not be possible.

The half-price stays are also from the same vendor, and you are required to call in with a credit card and your Coastal number.

On another note, I'd be curious to know the reason for the mandatory travel insurance on some of the burn weeks? Does anyone (Jeff Mills?) know if this is protection in case the trip is cancelled by the vendor because they found someone willing to pay more?

Never heard of Mandatory insurance from the condo weeks.

What is the spirit incentive website we can look at burn weeks? PM me the URL and PW please?

Also... is the CSG's street smart CEO package free to CSG people or does it cost money/copyrighted?

I have a retail sales kit which is free to anyone, it rocks, just PM me.

Jeff

Quoting: cgmom
What are the global theater presentations?


As quoted from my CSG Global Online website:
"Our "Live" Global Theater is an interactive presentation brought to you, right over the Internet, in the comfort of your home or where ever your daily schedule may take you. When you attend one of our "Live" Global Theater Presentations, it�s like being in an auditorium or theater with ten, a hundred, or even thousands of others from all over the world, ALL experiencing an informative and visually stunning presentation at the same time. By attending a Live" Global Theater Presentation you can experience some of THE MOST effective ways to learn about new, exciting and proven ways to create an exciting balanced life."

"When you attend one of our "Live" Global Theater Presentations, you get REAL information in a highly compelling, visually interactive way while you sit at home, dressed as you wish and with those who matter most by your side. The only 2 actions you have to take is to accept your complimentary ticket and sit back and watch the presentation. That�s it. AND any additional questions that you may have can be answered at the conclusion of each of our presentations."

Take Care,
Robert

Jeff, I am sponsored by Harold and am interested in the retail sales kit you mentioned above. I am a teacher and will have the whole summer to retail to businesses. You would think being a teacher I could come up with a good letter but while I'm ok with words, sales is new to me so if you're offering why reinvent the wheel?

My problem is I can't see how to pm someone on this forum?

My email is beckie1229@yahoo.com , I think that is allowed!

Thank you!

Thanks!

Terri,

Where did you find the PM? I was going to send Jeff the links he asked for, but, like Beckie, I can't figure out how to PM...

Thanks, I think there are many creative people here and we have no shortage of ideas.... just a shortage of implementation and time.
