What is happening is that people with other businesses who have worked hard to make a sale are seeing better results with GRN, There was a lady who is with LLI she said she worked for 14 months but, after about 4 days with GRN and a system we use she made a Platinum sale she was absolutely delighted.
We welcome all heavy hitters from other companies, YTB, LLI, Coastal, to look into this business and the systems we use, I can send you recordings that explains it and is easy to understand, one explains the product and the other the Payplan.
Folks, I have been in the travel industry for over 12 years I have been with another company BUT once I got into this business I can see that there is absolutely no comparison.
Those with timeshares or thinking about buying timeshares or who already sell timeshares you will be so surprised when you see what we offer and compare it, again no comparison GRN outshines them all.
Why am I this excited? Look at our site, listen to the recordings and you will see why I am this excited.

Hi,
I'm a new kid in the block, have been thinking about GRN more than 1 week I believe (read: so... excited but not ready to decide yet). Can anybody give me some bullets about some typical things that can make you fail in this kind of business?
Thanks, Dan

Hi Dan, wow that's a first, "how to fail" ???
* #A1 Not joining GRN !!!! (or RFS) * #1 don't advertise, buy leads or generally market the poduct * not bothering to learn about the product * not joining RFS
Vacations and travel is a BILLION dollar industry! People love to vacation, stay at luxury 5 star resorts for less than the cost of one vacation!
With GRN you can offer them the most prestigious properties to stay at along with providing excellent customer service. You don't need any special cards, (like with being a travel agent) you will receive top notch training, (with our team) excellent sales systems (RFS) world class website, how can you lose? Not taking advantage of this offer!
As a travel agent I see many travel programs, one was were you had to use vouchers and certificates which people do not like to do, but than I came upon GRN, after viewing the movies, researching and talking to my team leader I found what was a perfect fit for me and my clients.
With the help I received, the encouragement and the training and seeing all the sales that are being made with the RFS system I realized that there really was a light at the end of the tunnel (it's called a Funnel) and it was not a train.
Anyway, hope this helped, PM with any questions.
Skeptics welcomed, prefer positive minded people but we can change skeptics IF they want to change
Good luck in your search do your due diligence!
Terri

Hi Dan, Terri touched on a few key points, just like any business you have to advertise and let people know about it.
One of the things that sold me on GRN is that I could see clearly that it is a product that people will want , so I really can't see how one can go wrong getting involved.
Then there is the comp plan. Having come from businesses that would pay well only if you have a large group, this was a winning combo for me personally...product and comp plan.
Belief in your product and company is another way to avoid failure, because if you can't personally feel good about what you offer, people will not buy from you.
So, do your due diligence before getting involved, get all your questions answered, and ask yourself, would I want this product if there were no business opportunity were attached to it.
If you have further questions, I or others here can help assist you.
Cheers,
Kim Ward

Hi all,
How does this one compare to FUNTIME VACATION CLUB and Coastal Vacations?

I'm not sure what FVC is, but we are different from Coastal because we have a private membership that allows people to stay at 4-5 star luxury resorts at a fraction of the cost.
There are no certificates to send in, or pay on, everything is done online, and one does not have to deal with blackout dates.
I was never a Coastal member, but that is what I can think of off the top of my head from what I do know about Coastal.
Does that help?
Cheers,
Kim Ward

Terri & Kim,
I really appreciate your quick response. Please don't take me wrong with my previous questions because I'm so excited with this opportunity & currently doing my homework. Hope that you don't mind to help me with the following questions:
1. I learned from the website that there are 7 income streams. The 1st one is GRN - platinum membership is $2,9xx. What are the other 6 income streams? When you're talking about all the potential income in this forum, where does it come from? Is it enough to buy the GRN and do advertise? Or do you have to buy the remaining income streams? If yes, then how much approximately will be your total investment?
2. I got the email mentioned that financing is available with the contact number there. Is it the number of my upline or GRN office? Tried to contact that number yesterday & left a message in the voice mailbox. Will someone contact me back? If yes, then will it be the GRN staff or my upline?
3. How potential is this business in other continents other than America & Europe? Considering that GRN has a lot of resorts worldwide, approximately - how many % are available in those other continents?
4. Do you know how many members that are currently active?
Thank you so... much & have a great day!
Dan

Quoting: Newbie Shield How does this one compare to FUNTIME VACATION CLUB and Coastal Vacations?
I can answer about Coastal. Coastal package has vouchers, certificates, discount cards that offer discounts on entertainment, groceries, condo's, BUT as someone put it it is the Walmart or Sam's club of the travel industry, with CV to get a cruise or vacation planned you have to send in the voucher along with a fee and wait for a glossy brochure to be returned and than you hope that you will be able to stay at a hotel of your choice, which in most cases you can't, some vacations require 30-60 days advance. I had problems just recently with a Roadside assistance card enclosed in my package (I just found this out) well when I called the 800# on the card and gave my member # I was told this particular company hasn't offered assistance for over 2 years to CV members, I have to say that disturbed me. When you purchase a package for either $1295 or $3995 or $11,000 you are basically your own travel agent as you are responsible for making all arrangements, which can take a great bit of time to accomplish a lot of people are intimitated by all the calls they have to make and all the mailing and waiting etc. But for those wanting a discount package for travel and dont mind booking it all themselves than the they may like the pkg.
I prefer GRN because most travelers like being able to go online and actually SEE where they will be staying when booking their vacation and if they have questions about the property they can call customer service and ask questions. They know they will be staying in 4-5 star properties, luxury resorts. And they can call and speak to a travel agent to assist them with their air travel and car rentals as well as cruises and still receive the best rate.
Can you see the differences? I will now focus totally on GRN! And with RFS, and my team leadership I know I found what I had been searching for all this time !
Terri

The GRN opportunity is one that has a tremendous amount of potential- particularly if one is committed to helping others succeed. The challenge I have seen with some opportunities or teams is their focus is only on their own sales and success- to really do well you need to be focused on building your business by helping others build their business.
As it has been said before- Help enough other people get what they want and everything you want will come to you. This is the part of this business that I truly love. To be able to share business strategies with others to help them succeed. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions I can help you with. It is a pleasure to share insight instead of just looking inward to my own business.

Hi Chad, You are absolutely right, getting on to the right team - unless you plan on doing everything on your own - is the most important step when joining any business. I don't care if people claim to have a "System" that is supposed to be "Duplicable" - having people there that sincerely care about your success is vital to your long-term success.
Great to have you on the board, Chad!
All the best, Terry

I agree totally that the key to having a successful business is training aand joining with the right team, a top tier product and a proven sales system that converts sales.
Than after doing your due diligence, and after you join, the next important step is to advertise!
But selective advertising is key as well, targeted advertising. Some systems do a lot of training for you and your team, that along with a leader who will coach you thru the rough spots whether you're a newbie or an experienced marketer is the answer because when you start a new business you are a newbie to the business.

I would like to know more about GRN, from a customer standpoint. We love to scuba dive and travel to Cozumel, Mexico a couple of times a year. Does GRN offer deals on resorts in Cozumel. We go often enough that I would liek to find a timeshare or vacation package that will save us some money when we go.
If GRN does offer resorts in Cozumel and Playa del Carmen, then I may want to sign up as a representative(?). I don't like to sell so it would have to be a product that I really like and can talk about it passionately.
Thanks!

Hi Stacy, we do offer resorts in Cozumel and right now have one listed in our hot weeks section for as low as $298.00 per family, for an entire week, 7 nights 8 days.
If you'd like a list of some of the resorts, I'd be happy to send you info via private message.

Hi! I am doing my research on Coastal Vacations and is just now learning about Global Resorts Network from what I'm reading so far on this forum. Can someone explain more about the compensation and how much it is to start their own business with GRN? Do they have to buy a certain package like Coastal? And if so, once they are in the business, how does the commission work? Like with Coastal, you get commission at the Level you buy in at. So if you are wanting to make the most commission your best bet is to buy in on Level 3 ($11,000) which is WAY WAY out of my budget. Then if you buy in on Level 1 ($1300) which is more reasonable, however you do not make commission on your first 2 sales (it goes to your training or something like that, meaning your director takes it) and if you sell a Level 2 or Level 3 Package, you only make commission on Level 1... from what I am understanding so far. Any Coastal reps reading this can correct me if I'm wrong. But my question is, what is GRN's compensation plan? Do they take commission the first few sales? And then on the Opportunity website it states: "We Cover 100% of Your Marketing Money For this Campaign! This Guarantees Sales within Your First Month in Business,And Guaranteed Team Growth Instantly! This is how you Succeed!" I think with Coastal, you have to pay monthly for your website. Does this statement tells me that with GRN, the website is free? Or maybe, I should just fill out my information and have someone call me with more info? Thanks!
