I have found this to be a very informative forum. I have been in touch with a Coastal director in the past and I'm impressed that even though I am procrastinating he continued to keep in touch with me for a while.
So as I sit here at work on another Christmas day, away from my family, I have a serious interest in going forward with this. The time I am spending here today is time I can not make up with my wife and kids. Call me greedy, but I don't want to spend another Holiday away from the people that matter the most to me.
I have a couple of questions I was hoping someone or a couple of active Coastal business owners could answer.
1. If I invest in the Platinum Package please explain what I really get. Am I correct in my understanding that I get unlimited 4 day/ 3 night cruise, free?
2. On doing this as a business; with the Platinum Package, would I be a level 3 director after I finish my pass up training sales? Does that mean the first two (2) at each level? OK just me assuming now, if I sign up two level 1 partners, do I have to find two level 2 and two level 3 partners before I can receive a profit from a third level 1 partner signed up?
3. Has anyone taken any trips with their package? I am particularly interested in the cruises? What did you have to pay? The support from the cruise line you selected?
4. Has anyone given away any of their cruises? Did it cost the person you gave it to anything? Have there been any complaints about booking the cruise from that person?
I know this is asking for a lot of information. I am hoping to use this as a multiple income stream business.
Merry Christmas!
Thanks!
Brian

I was looking for an active Director, who would be interested in helping me re-vamp my coastal business. I'm willing to negotiate monetary incentives. Dor you actively promote Coastal in Dallas?

Hi Brian,
I personally can't answer all your questions, but if you call 1-800-378-1169 which is the call center, they can answer all of your questions. You can ask for Hoyt who is the owner. Hope this helps you out. I think you will be pleased with Coastal Vacations.
Good Luck, and keep us posted on what you decide.
Susan Eng

Hello everyone,
I haven't been on here in a while, I was taking some holiday time, and this has been a very busy thread!
Quoting: Lion_child I am deeply interested in CSG, and i am sold on the idea already, althought, i am slightly discouraged that i have to wait 2-3 months to purchase the level one or 2 deal due to the fact that i have little money at the moment.
I want to ask:
1. How realistic is it to get the 2 trainee sales and 2 sales in the first 2 weeks of starting my own CSG business?
2. What expenses should i expect in the first month of starting up?
3. Advertising is okay, however, there was a message about "no cold calling" what is that all about?
4. I want a director that I can relly on and be sure that they are there for the first two sales.
5. What kind of money is it possible to make in 5 months?
6. Is there any payment or financing plan i can use to purchase the basic level one package????? I REALLY WANT TO JOIN CSG!!!
I have been doing some research, and i am fully commited to join and fully commited to do whatever it takes to do this!
Anyways, if there are any directors on here, can you give me some adivce on this questions?
Thanks.
Lionchild
Lionchild,
I am not in the CSG, but I do believe that they have a payment plan for the basic package. Don't quote me on that please 
As far as how realistic it is to make your first two training sales and two sales in the first two weeks - that's a hard one to answer. I don't want to say yes definitely, but I don't want to say absolutely not either.
It HAS been done! There is a lady in our group that qualified out in 4 days. Then there are others who took 6 months. I think the average is about 2 months. It all depends on you. We all have the same package, we all have the same lead vendors, we all have the same support and training, the only difference is you!
Expenses would be the package, advertising, websites, telephone, internet, basic office setup supplies, etc...
As far as the "no cold calling" they are saying that you would get leads that have requested information on working from home, starting a business, or specifically on Coastal Vacations.
As far as a director, ask questions! How well are they able to answer them or how are they at being able to find the answer and get it to you? What about the group they are in? How is the support and training? There are many groups out there. Go to Q&A calls from each group that you are interested in and see what you like and what fits you the best.
These are all great questions! I do know that the CSG has Q&A calls. You should get on there and ask your questions. You will help others out there who are afraid to step out and ask them.
Good luck and God Bless!
Lora

Brian, I would like to answer your questions for you.
Quoting: CarolinaConsign 1. If I invest in the Platinum Package please explain what I really get. Am I correct in my understanding that I get unlimited 4 day/ 3 night cruise, free?
You do get unlimited 4 day/3 night cruises! As far as what else you get - the list is huge! The director that you are talking to should have that information for you. It is also on my website under the travel packages link.
Quoting: CarolinaConsign 2. On doing this as a business; with the Platinum Package, would I be a level 3 director after I finish my pass up training sales? Does that mean the first two (2) at each level? OK just me assuming now, if I sign up two level 1 partners, do I have to find two level 2 and two level 3 partners before I can receive a profit from a third level 1 partner signed up?
Ok Brian, this one depends on the group that you are associated with. Since I don't know who you have been talking to, I will tell you how we do it in the WealthBuilders. According to the Coastal Board of Directors you must have two training sales at your level of entry. The WealthBuilders interpret that to mean two training sales at the level you come on board at. So...if you come in at the platinum level, you will need two training sales at the platinum level to be a released director. In the meantime, any basic or premiere sales that you make would be yours. The profit and the business builder would then be yours to keep/train. (With help of course!)
Quoting: CarolinaConsign 3. Has anyone taken any trips with their package? I am particularly interested in the cruises? What did you have to pay? The support from the cruise line you selected?
I have used my package, but not a cruise yet...I have given some of them away as gifts...
Quoting: CarolinaConsign 4. Has anyone given away any of their cruises? Did it cost the person you gave it to anything? Have there been any complaints about booking the cruise from that person?
Yes! I have given away several of the vacations in my package. Some of them were for raffles for non-profits; some were just gifts to friends. I gave a cruise away to a friend of mine to give to her in-laws and they loved it! They used a Carnival cruise and it cost them about $100 per person for taxes and port charges and all. They upgraded to a better room and there were no complaints. I think they were pleasantly surprised!
Brian, these are all wonderful questions. You should definitely get back to the director that you were talking to. If this is where your heart is then go for it! Get the director to take you to a live Q&A call. You may hear questions you never thought to ask. You will also get to hear from other directors that have been doing this a lot longer than I have and what their experience has been with the vacations.
Happy New Year!
Lora

Lora,
Thank you so much for answering those questions. I am in the process of talking with a Coastal Board of Directors member to ask some more questions.
A quick observation Lora, I think it is very professional the way you answer other peoples questions without trying to recruit them. I have read your responses on this one thread and you are surely a voice of reason.
Thanks,
Brian

Brian,
if you call the call center they will ask you who told you about the call center and ask for a member ID for them. Make sure and give them Susan's Member ID of 3902-SE. This is how we, at the call center keep our leads straight. Susan is brand new and on fire for Coastal and will definately be a leader in this business. I am looking forward to helping her be INCREDIBLY SUCCESSFUL!

Harold,
Thanks for that bit of information, but as I stated above to Lora I am in the process of having my questions answered by one of the Coastal Board of Directors.
I am excited for Susan and wish her the best of success.
Brian

I wanted to thank every one for the excellent information. It helped me decide to join. I would like to hear from others that just started as well as get tips from long time directors for how to maximize my first few weeks.
I am really excited about starting the New Year with a fresh start in life.
