I received an email today from NetTrav , the parent company of P1D.
Every time someone books travel on our website, the travel commissions are loaded into our back office.
I really like this system because, we will have people we don't know book travel on our sites and it'll be reported in our back office automatically!
Some of you may be wondering how we get booking commissions without having to be travel agents, well it's simple really.
Expedia, Orbitz, Priceline, etc........ are travel consolidators. They get paid from the travel suppliers a booking commission each time someone books travel on their site.
You see, NetTrav is also a travel consolidator and gets paid commissions from the suppliers.
The difference is, as a NetTrav member, you get a percentage of the booking commission!! Your membership level determines what percent.
NetTrav member only ---- 50% SilveR P1D member ---- ---60% Gold P1D member ----- --- 70% Platinum member --------- 80%
Just wanted to share a little insight with everyone.
Cheers, Cindy 850-316-8314

Hi All!
I find it refreshingly wonderful to see everyone conducting themselves in a professional and forthcoming fashion on this thread. How we behave both publically and privately reflects our true intentions, and I am very proud to be associated with people, like yourselves in this great business!
I agree with you Maria... real business professionals would NEVER EVER tell half truths about their perceived competition or put others down to bring themselves up. I don't know about other people, but I am smart enough to look behind anything I am reading and ask who and WHY something was put online- not to mention how!
I did my own independant homework when I read about the reseller of travel legislation as well- and I am very proud to say that not only am I working in the ONLY truly legal and legitimate home based travel business that I can find online but that the SMG and P1D's mandate has always been to take the "high road" and not condone or encourage black hat or bogus marketing. Not to mention the company seeks out and hires the best of industry professionals to support us behind the scenes. I for one, am smart enough to know that I will never KNOW everything, and having the best of the best behind me dotting the "i's" and crossing the "t's" gives me a true security that I have never found in any other kind of corporate organization.
The point of SYNERGY is to work together professionally and as a whole and to allow everyone to benefit from P1D/NetTrav's branding. It is smart business for everyone, and the fact that we represent a legitimate and valuable product FIRST is old fashioned good business!
I am really loving the new whoissmg dot com website, it really gives a good solid background of the WHY and HOW of SMG/P1D. I really appreciate our corporate and leadership teams solid commitment to transparency and "walking the talk". Personally, if every company (not just travel companies and hbb opportunities) had the kind of commitment and philosophy shared by the Synergy Marketing Group and Platinum One Destinations, we would be living in a very different world.
Congrats on the PAYcation Maria, I see you have had several sales come in. The SYSTEM is working, I hope you are having a better then GREAT time!
Keep up the great work everyone, the summer with P1D is hot, hot HOT!
Jani

So true Jani!
BTW - you were GREAT on the training this evening.

Thanks so much Cindy! I actually loved doing it- I intended to help out others who are still learning the how to's and maybe provide some new tips to more seasoned business owners.
On another note-It is so true that we learn from others, especially our team members- I just love that feeling I get when by teaching someone I learn something new myself! I truly believe that if we are not growing we are dying, and Carol McCord made a very great point at the end about learning from others and taking what works for YOU- I still do that, and I know every successful person I know keeps plugged into that MAC and continually makes it their purpose to learn, grow and apply. I know when I was brand new to the business (like I said this is my first real hbb, though I did get scammed a few times as Maria stated most of us have earlier) I listened for any learning and practical "how to's" that I could find on the SMG training calls, so I wanted to be able to answer as many general "how to" faq's and provide tips as I could! At the same time, I benefited by learning something about myself and from the wonderful people that stepped up to learn and participate. Like they say, what is good for the goose is good for the gander. It is so wonderful that we are called the SYNERGY group. The name says it all.. pure synergy!
A big thank-you to my team members Mary and Chairo for stepping out and helping! I couldn't do it without the power of SYNERGY! Together Everyone Achieves More!
Maria did an AWESOME training about online marketing that will be posted to our members only dashboard shortly. I'm so excited to see the many new tools, options and ideas the SMG as P1D's official training and marketing partner continually brings out to give everyone the all important choices we have as independent business owners.
I can't believe how far we have come in such a short time with P1D, and I am STILL pinching myself every day, because I see the "big picture" and know beyond a doubt where this business is going. Personally, I think that anyone looking at this during soft launch who is not getting onboard is absolutely out of their mind if they understand the magnitude of this opportunity and want to sit on their heels and wait. Then again, there are leaders and there are followers! I believe that what makes our organization so powerfully positive and forward moving IS the people in it. Everyone has such passion and commitment, and I can truly say I am grateful to be able to have the opportunity to share, learn and grow with and through the P1D and SMG.
Good on YOU for stepping out Cindy! Make it happen girl!
Jani

Hi guys, I have a question.................... It seems like I read in one of our corporate emails that the P1D memberships are due annually.
I know with NetTrav we pay a $99 annually fee with NO monthly fees. Do we pay our P1D membership each year? example: Silver: $1,500 annually plus our monthly fees?
Thanks in Advance for your answers, Cindy

Platinum One Destinations is coming close to the full launch period.
If anyone is looking at P1D, the softlanch specials of qualifying with just one sale ends September 30th 2008. From October 1st all new members will need 2 sales to qualify as an EMA.
The soft launch prices of $1,200 for the silver, $4,800 for the gold membership and $12,000 fro the Platinum will continue a while longer. I have not heard if it will be discontinued any time soon, but that can change.
Also the extra rewards points which are being added to the P1D membership packages (+100,000 for the Platinum alone) will discontinue at the end of the month as understood by me from the synergy Platter call with Lloyd Wilson.
Lots of reasons to start this month.
With all the uncertified home based travel businesses flying under the radar, I know P1D (which is certified & BBB Accredited) will out perform all predictions and become the first Billion Dollar home based travel business sooner rather than later.
cheers maria

I am really excited about the extra rewards points- it makes members able to give friends and family points or to use them as incentives without worrying that you are going to run out of points.
Are any of you going to be in Charlotte for the Summit?

Hello Jen
unfortunately no, I won't be in Charlotte but I have members of my team who will be there.
With hurricane Ike creating havoc in Houston (many areas might not have power for weeks) I wonder if P1D will alter their plans in hosting the following summit in Houston.
Unless plans change, I will be attending the one in Houston on Oct 25th. I live in Dallas.
Yes, I have 250,000 points...enough to share, use and donate and still have lots left over.
Cheers maria

Hello I thought I would try to re-energize this thread by giving P1D updates:
The next summit will be IN LA Dec 5th and 6th and is free to all guests. If anyone has been wondering about Platinum One Destinations, attending the summit is a great opportunity to find out about P1D, get a free nettrav website, plus have a chance of winning a Silver mmebership for $10 in a drawing plus get a chance to rub shoulders with 6 and 7 figure earners.
The Dallas event was spectacular and lots of fun.
P1D is offering a 1 up qualification for P1D members until the end of the year, plus they are offering extra reward points for Gold and Platinum memberships.
Plus they are now offering financing with zero credit checks. You can even earn commissions before you have paid for your membership in full.
P1D is such a fun and ethical business, I love it.
Cheers Maria 972-881-4694

Hi Maria-
I am sooooo excited about all the things going on in Platinum One Destinations right now. You pointed out the 1 up special as well as our new payment plan. I also think that the $49 set-up fee has been waived as well by Synergy.
I also agree with you about the fun and ethical business that we are members of. I have talked to a lot of people who have been scammed, I spoke to an individual today who was taken by someone she called a friend. Not so in P1D. I'm proud to be able to show people our BBB rating and also our reseller of travel information.
Then the fun part comes in! Have you seen the fantastic Disney vacation! I can't wait until my son is old enough! We will so be going!

Hello Carole
you are so right.... The Disney vacation, with 7 day car rental, 7 night condo and 4 Disney 7 day passes is a steal.
The BBB accreditation means so much, especially as few home based travel businesses have it.
P1D is an affordable and ethical home business that works.
Great to see you here Carole,
Cheers maria

Good Morning,
Four years ago we took a package deal just like the one offered by P1D. It included Disney passes, a rental car, accomodations, airfare everything. We paid $1800. P1D is offering it now 4 years later, same week long stay, passes, car, everything for less than $500! Now that's a real benefit of membership

Good post Carole...as you also know, the prices have gone up tremendously over the last 4 yrs.
4 Yrs ago we paid $500 pp to fly to the UK in the summer, this summer it was $1400 pp
Which makes the P1D Disney vacation offer even sweeter.
Cheers maria

Wow Is it just me, but my website visitors and calls from prospects has gone thru the roof this last week.
I think it's because it's close to Christmas and people are planning on giving travel as gifts as well as looking for a viable way to make more money.
P1D is also launching a special give away next week....can't wait to spill the beans
cheers maria

Just a quick update, P1D is now offering luxury villas for rent. Some even include their own chefs, beach front etc. Great for honeymoons, anniversaries or just because I have been a wonderful wife (hint hint)
Cheers maria
