thank you Lindsay. I heard of Coastal Vacations before and have been reading many posts here so I know it's a great business!
I think I'm leaning with the Call Center but haven't decided yet.

Welcome Len,
Great to have you here on the message board checking out Coastal. This is a great forum to get any of your questions answered. I don't think you will be disappointed with any group from Coastal. They all seem to have great training and support.
I joined Coastal not realizing there were different groups. I am with the wecloseyoursales group and I don't regret it at all. Lots or really great people in Coastal. From reading the board you can tell they are all very helpful and supportive from all groups.
Best of Success to you and let us know when you have decided.
Susan

Hi Len,
Great decision with the Call Center.
It's a great system to get the job done for you. There are many of us in the forum who can attest to that!
Good luck,
Roger

Len,
If you have already decided on coastal, please do yourself a favor and join with the Call Center. I was just telling my director last night that I am getting MANY inquiries from people who have joined with other groups asking about how they can get in to the call center. I was like you in the beginning, I was talking to two groups, one with the call center and one without. I am so glad I picked the call center. It is certainly an attractive addition to your Coastal business, especially when you are just starting out and maybe are still working full time. To be honest, it was the defining factor in my decision to join Coastal.
Have you called in yet to give them a test drive? You can find their number on my site if you are interested in talking to them first hand. They are very professional and probably know more than I do about the business.
Good luck!
Noreen

Hi everybody!
A question: If I join at L2 under a L2 Director what would happen to the commissions should I sell L3 packages?

Joe,
if you join the call center the level 3 commission would be split between you(after you are qualified) and the closest level 3 director in your upline. If you aren't qualified it would be split between your level 2 director and the closet level 3 director but the member would always go to the level 3 director. I don't know how this works with other groups. We, at the WCYS call center always think it's important to reward you for your advertising efforts even if you aren't at the level of the sale. After all, that sale was generated by your advertising and you should get some return on it. Also, if you aren't qualified at that time, the sale would count as one of your qualifying sales since if was a higher level sale. Remember also,through the call center(and a few other groups) you get to keep your level one sales since you came in at level 2.

Hi Harold!
Interesting to read your post.. from my research and understanding in ALL the groups (that I am aware of, anyhow) the lower level director will have his share passed down. Is this not the case everywhere in your understanding?
Cheers

Jani,
please get more specific. If a person is a director why would he pass anything down. He would only have to pass up to his director what he is not qualified to receive. At least that is the way it is with our team. For instance, if you were my director and I made a level 3 sale I would only get what I am qualified to receive which is $3,000 (call center level 2 commission) and you would receive the rest plus the member and his two pass ups when he made them. I was told by others from othe groups that I looked into before I joined the call center that if I made a sale that was above my level that the entire sale and commission and member would go over me and up to the next director at that level. If all groups do it like we do then I apologize but this is what I was told by several people.

Harold,
I concur. Before I joined with you, I was investigating other groups and they said if I make a sale above my level, I give up the whole thing. I said NO WAY to that.

Interesting.. I don't know what groups you investigated Harold, but my understanding with my group is that we work the very same way that the call centre does. You will ALWAYS get the full amount you are QUALIFIED to receive on EVERY sale.
I thought that was actually a BOD thing.. it never occured to me that if a L2 made an L3 they wouldn't of course keep the $3200. How can those groups then say that people earn a MINIMUM of $1000 on each and every transaction if that is also their policy?? I mean, it is the very SAME amount of work to make an L1 as it is an L3.. so seems rather rude to me of some groups or directors so say, well thanks for doing the work but you aren't qualified to keep any of it??
So which other groups have that kind of rule? Is it a group thing, or a director thing from within that group?
I know that with the CSG as well as a whole the standard practice is to pass up the first 2 of ANY sales at ANY level to get the release for the level you came in at. Which I personally like and prefer, but people working under me can also choose to just pass up the 2 commissions at the level they came in at (given they came in at L2 or L3) and keep the full commissions at the lower levels, should they choose. I give them the choice of either before they take their business live. Most people choose the former, but I have had a few L3's decide they wanted the later. OK, fine with me!!
Cheers

Jani,
I don't remember which groups specifically because I researched several but I do know that it was more than a couple of them that had this rule. They said this was just the way it worked because if you weren't qualified to make a sale at that level then you weren't qualified to get the commission. I'm glad our group isn't like that.

That is interesting.. I would like to know which groups actually have that policy. I'm not going anywhere, mind you.. but I think it very interesting that when doing my own research (and there was LOTS of it!) I never came accross that. So, I'm thinking that if it was in fact a groups policy the directors I was asking the questions of had different personal policies?
At any rate, I'm glad neither your nor my group has that policy. Seems rather unfair to me!
