They are still up and running. I have had someone contact me within the last week from the Coastal Closers team. She was telling me about the new Marketing Associate sign up level. Pretty sweet deal (I would have to pass up 4 Level 1 sales before I get my level 1 directors release) but the websites are crappy and unprofessional and I don't like the fact the other Coastal directors would be closing my sales. There are many other reasons why I will not chose this group. But yes, they are still around!

Interesting because on another post you say that you joined them and asking for help.
So what happened that made you decide to join the "closers" ??

Yes ...
Brittni did join us at the Marekting Associate Level, then after 2 days, backed out.
We are still up and running and diong well.
You can make your own decisions about the website look and feel ... but I will tell you "our take" on the sites.
In 7 years with Coastal, nearly 3 years operating with the Closing Center system ... and having websites all along the way .... I can count the number of people who joined just from the "website" alone on 1 hand and I have fingers (most of them in fact) left.
I've seen some beautiful sites, with flash movies and animated graphics and floating menus ... to the point that the site was more of an issue than the product or service.
We decided to make a good site, that we don't charge for to our Full Pay Members, that informs accurately and encourages the person to do the one thing most people require before they will pay $100's or $1,000's of dollars. TALK TO US.
The belief that "most people" will visit a site, listen to a call or two and then pay money and NOT want to talk to a human being personally before handing over their credit card or better... FedEx a certified check to some person they have never even spoken to ... simply hasn't been our experience.
We offer real closers, real service, very flexible options, special consideration for people who joined Coastal and now are either orphaned or simply can't get it going .... with our "modest" but free websites (two of them).
Thanks for the questions and observations ...

Hey Jim,
I appreciate your response on this forum. The best thing about Coastal Vacations is the flexibility and the choices one has in building their business. When I first started I avoided the "Call Centers" like the plague. The culture of the training I had made them seem like the worst decision anyone could make. Well ive grown and matured in my three years with Coastal and understand the need for al of the different groups and systems. In fact in the coming days i'll have created my own system for orphans or as I like to call them the Coastal Forgotten.
The best thing about Coastal is we are all independent business owners and can run our businesses ( within certain guidelines) however we see fit. It give many the flexibility to run wild and create incredible tools that benefit us all. For those that need a system in place they can find that with the various groups.
I encourage everyone to really make a good inventory of what you are looking for when you decide to get started and pick the best system for your needs. Coastal works because we have the best travel product in my opinion on the market with an amazing compensation plan that gives us the flexibility to run it according to our own needs. Good luck to all looking at Coastal Vacations and as always I offer my services to those in need.

Hi Adam,
I appreciate your input and you're correct. There is really no other opportunity out there today, with the same very high profits per sale AND the complete flexibility to operate it as your own business.
Yes, there's other "products" using a 1 or 2 up and high profits, but the controls imposed by the companies that run their programs make it prohibitive to call yourself truly an independent business owner.
On that note ... Adam, I'd like to visit with you next week about what your plans are for the 'orphaned' Coastal Members.
You can give me good times to reach you .. will be glad to call.
Have a super weekend.

Hello Readers,
I wanted to post a quick update ... improvements to our Closing Center System.
No more "give up sales without pay" to qualify for Director Status.
Now, you can earn money with your FIRST sale. We do this quite simply, but allowing a Split Commission for your Qualifying Sales.
Existing Members love this, because they know if you are not earning money right away, you can't keep going in business. So, this is like "insurance" (no pun intended due to my 22 years financial services background) that keeps you in the business.
YOU get to earn $500 or more starting out.
Got questions .. visit the site and register for our free 1 hour Webcast Presentation. We want you to know ... before you join.
See you there ....

Hello Readers....
Big Big news coming --- some already here!
First, we have officially added Fun Time Vacations to our Closing Center "mix" of services and products.
Fun Time has been producing leads "in-house" for some time on there own now and we have had a few Staff / Members who have been trying them, calling them, and ... LIKING THEM.
Therefore, they have now been added as an official product of our Call Center and we're glad to have them on board. Aside from being a large part of the Coastal Level I package it also means we will now be generating TWO income streams for our Members.
More details available upon request..... just ASK!

Hi Jason,
This is just our group that is partnering with Fun Time on a formal basis.
Since we are the only Call Center that will place the outbound call to our Members leads ... and Fun Time has a built-in lead generation system ... and someone must CALL those leads, it is a perfect fit for us.
And, since they generate a completely separate income stream as a Member of Fun Time --- you would then have your leads ... someone calling your leads for you ... and someone building that second income stream for you as well, as a Member of our Call Center.
Fun Time also brings to the table for us, special access beyond what the Level I Coastal Package grants, to their certificates and other travel benefits and advantages, that they offer only to their own Members in Fun Time ... so why NOT have them on board?
Last ... we are about to unveil by the end of this month, the biggest shake up in all of Coastal or Call Centers or Coastal Groups period, with our EXCLUSIVE MEMBER PARTNERSHIP GUARANTEE.
Yes ... a performance guarantee is coming!
You need to join us on one of our Global Presentations held on Tue / Wed / Thurs at 7pm Pac. / 10pm Eastern ... and you can get your "ticket" by filling the the form on our site so we can get in touch with you and give you the URL and phone # for that 1 hour no obligation info call and webcast.
Love to see you there. You can just email me directly and I can get you that info as well.
Thanks Jason ... exciting times coming!

Just to keep this category current ...
Now that we have the "Rescue Package" from the Gov underway, NOW ... not later ... is the time to get the jump on a recovering market.
What would an extra few thousand dollars for Christmas mean?
What would a sizeable tax write off mean to you for getting back the max (meaning most or all of your taxes ... not just a "refund") mean to you?
What would having all the headaches and issues of working Coastal alone REMOVED mean to you?
If you want answer .... ask us how it can work.
Never better timing that NOW.

Hello Again !
Just to keep things updated ... our new TeleCenter and Dialer program is under way with results that are better than we anticipated when we were in the planning stages.
And ... now that we also have a new President, who has a very specific agenda for tax reform ... if you want to be on the RIGHT SIDE of that tax reform you will NEED to BE A BUSINESS.
Just "joining" Coastal Vacations will NOT automatically qualify you as a business. You will want to know WHY NOT and take the steps to assure you ARE a business that qualifies.
That's the tip for the day .....!
