Why Read This SendOutCards Review?

I believe there is a HUGE untapped potential with SendOutCards and at the end of this review I reveal why.

I am writing this article simply to present you with the information any business person would require in evaluating the SendOutCards opportunity.I'm not a distributor or an employee of SendOutCards. Iím a business expert from the school of hard knocks as well as a traditional MBA - with over 2 decades entrepreneurial experience in various businesses, primarily start-ups.

Any business will require a lot of your time, money and considerable effort before you see any success. Any business will require a lot of your time, money and considerable effort before you see any success. I've coached many people to succeed in their MLM business and have witnessed many times exactly what it takes to breakthrough. Those who are successful have the tenacity and mindset of an entrepreneur, from day 1. Remove the word "try" from your vocabulary and just do it.

SendOutCards distrbutors love their company, comp plan and products and as far as I could tell has literally no competition.Thereís huge potential for financial success with your SendOutCards business if you can get enough people looking at your presentation, daily. The ìold schoolî method of marketing taught by the leaders makes it very difficult for the average person to gain the critical mass needed for success in this industry.

To understand the details, read below.

The Pros & Cons of SendOutCards Explained

SendOutCards Reputation

A quick Google search on both SendOutCards and Kody Bateman (CEO) didnít reveal any shocking or disheartening news. SendOutCards information on the web was very positive.The MLM industry tends to attract "get rich quick" folks who quickly become disappointed when they realize this industry does require "work".Not the case with SendOutCards, indicating the leaders are positioning this opportunity properly.

Both the FTC (Federal Trade Commission) and the BBB (Better Business Bureau) showed no complaints with the company.

SendOutCards Years In Business

90% of businesses tend to fail during the first year.It's always safer to go into business with a MLM or Network Marketing company that has a little history.SendOutCards 5-year anniversary indicates that SendOutCards is probably a safe bet since they've been around now since 2004.

Managment Team of SendOutCards

SendOutCard's CEO, Kody Bateman's mission is to create a billion-dollar greeting cards company, in the MLM industry.His trigger for starting SendOutCards is a heartfelt story. Kody had just left home for his first out-of-college job when his brother was tragically killed.Kody hadnít really taken the time to say goodbye and then it was too late.This sparked his idea for SendOutCards.

After doing a Google search for background on Mr. Bateman, I couldn't really find any infornation and the company website doesn't really post his resume, a bit of a concern since leadership is so critical.I'm assuming Mr. Bateman began SendOutCards right out of college with not a lot of other corporate experience. While SendOutCards IS thriving, Iíd prefer to see a more experienced management team.

The Financial Background Of SendOutCards

The company is debt free at the time this article was written.

SendOutCards Products

Let's face it, if you like the products chances are others will too.MLMs and Network Marketing companies are critical when it comes to the products. Personally, I love the concept of SendOutCards: an online hub that makes it simple and convenient to select a printed greeting card, have it stuffed into an envelope, stamped and sent in the mail on your behalf.

You'll also get an contact manager online for the price of your card. PLUS ñ printed with your handwritten signature, and you can upload your own images for full customization making it as easy to send a greeting as it is to send an email.How cool is that?

Competing Companies Of SendOutCards

Folks, this is a billion dollar industry in greeting cards.SendOutCards has a unique online delivery system and has next to no competiton within the MLM industry, but it is up against both Hallmark and American Greetings, both huge companies. A huge advantage for SendOutCards is that there really are no competitors in this (MLM) space. First to market is always an advantage.

SendOutCards Compensation Plan

SendOutCards comp plan is a direct sales, front-end program that means you get paid fast. This is known as GPT, or Get Paid Today, my personal favorite type of plan.As a new business, you'll need cash flow and so will your team members so this is critical.This will help keep you in "money" as you grow your revenues.

A residual income gets paid out by SendOutCards, too, meaning you can make money even while you're sleeping. Always a plus.

The key here with , as with all home-based businesses is getting enough people to take a look at your plan, daily, to get critical mass.Your goal for success is to sign up one new member every single day.

How SendOutCards Comp Plan works:

1. You'll be your first SendOutCards customer.

2. Then, decide to work the SendOutCards business and participate in the comp plan simply by encouraging others to get the "free gift." (Great incentive!)

Seven Ways To Get Paid With SendOutCards:

1. Customer Direct Sales Profits: People purchase an annual pre-paid greeting

2. Monthly profits by preferred customers. Volume commissions paid on this.

3. Wholesale Packages - $298 including a coaching session from you. You get $120 bonus, paid after coaching is completed (paid weekly basis).

4. Entrepreneur Plus Package - The cost is $398 and is similar to the package above including coaching in your downline but you can get a bonus of $15 to $50 for each session, paid weekly.

5. Seminar Treat'em Right - Weekly bonus when you get your reps to attend this additional seminar.$5 to $30 additional commission.

6. Bonus 7-level Volume - Get paid on your entire greeting card base, monthly.

7. Bonus On Leadership Volume: Unlimited levels within your group, paid on greeting cards sold. 5% to 25% commissions paid depending upon where you are positioned in the leadership.

Competition For SendOutCards

Leadership, or the top producers, in the MLM organization can be ver revealing.Checkout one of the SendOutCards trainings.Talk to them if possible. Find out how they market SendOutCards.This can be the difference between fast money and no money.Be on the lookout for a system or a blueprint, a step-by-step plan to get you going.

The one challenge to SendOutCards is that the SendOutCards leaders still teach the old school marketing of making a list of your friends and family and talking to everyone within 3 feet and getting them to a meeting at a hotel or a house.Old school marketing requires a lot of people in your personal network to achieve any level of success.To reach that one new SendOutCards sign-up per day you're going to need a lot of people looking at your SendOutCards opportunity daily.

See Training below.

The SendOutCards Training

Like most MLM companies, SendOutCards offers system training and recorded webinars and plugs distributors into EFTBN (Eagles Flight Team Building The challenge is that SendOutCards is not focused on Internet Marketing, a critical mistake for anyone who wants to achieve success today.

Internet Marketing will allow you to generate 50 to 100 leads per day. Thatís actually, several hundred people per day, looking at your opportunity. Youíd have a really tough time, personally finding and talking to that many people every single day and thatís the value of leveraging the Internet.You'll literally attract people to your website.

I see this with a lot of MLM companies. They are old school marketing advocates and this is why people fail: they're chasing people to join their business instead of attracting people who are truly interested. It requires talking to anybody within 3-feet to reach those critical numbers. I should know, I've done plenty of it.This just alienates you from everyone you know who starts to avoid you - and your business.

SendOutCards distiributors, this is your huge break!

The Real Goldmine With SendOutCards
