Notes from Chris
Episode 1514
Welcome to a new week! Network marketing is at the top of the list of topics I know I can get a response from listeners about. Whenever I mention it (and I’m not a neutral voice—I’m saying don’t get into it, it won’t end well), I always get a lot of email. But hey, if you have 20 free minutes, let me tell you about a wonderful opportunity…. What else is like network marketing? Timeshare properties! Today’s listener has an idea to help people break free of the shackles that come with a timeshare contract. It is a captive market, but what can be done?"Hey, Chris, it's Karen calling in from Salt Lake City, Utah. I discovered your podcast a couple of months ago and have been working my way through all your episodes on my daily walks. So over nine million Americans own a timeshare, many of whom would love nothing more than to free themselves from the lifelong, ever increasing financial burden of ownership. However, the timeshare companies make this endeavor increasingly difficult. After relentlessly researching the topic, I was finally able to get rid of our family's timeshare without using a realtor, attorney or timeshare company, and I didn't have to ruin our credit either. I was thinking of perhaps creating an online course to share what I learned throughout this process and to help others develop and execute a plan that works for their situation. Do you think that this is the best way to deliver this type of information, or should I be considering other avenues? How do I protect my content and how do I determine what to charge? Thank you again for your invaluable podcast. I look forward to hearing your thoughts on my idea."Listen to today's episode to learn more...
