I am from the UK. I am a long way from you people over there. Is there anyone from the UK i can contact regarding GDI. I feel really isolated over here. It is difficult to contact people by phone as the time difference is really big. Does anyone know how to get UK leads apart from flyers and business cards.
I know I know too many questions.
Regards Ron Rodwell.

Yeah, a very sceptical and stubborn bunch. Suppose we love 'em really :-)

Hi, Sandra here - originally from the Northeast but now living near Reading, Berkshire by way of Canada, Japan and France. Yes, the UK is a difficult nut to crack - hopefully we won't end up earning peanuts! I'm going to primarily market the product rather than the opportuinity, and see how that goes. I'm planning to set up a webste to do this - it'll be a case of "If I can do this, you can too". I think the "in-your-face" recruiting site instantly scares Brits away. I've found that anything to do with network marketing immediately brings the shutters down. I do believe the time is right for this (even in the UK), we just have to keep plugging away - there are so many differect niches to market the GDI package to. I suspect we'll do much better offline than by using UK leads online (if there are any). Good luck to us all ![Grin](http://talk.ws/Smileys/default/grin.gif)

Hi Sandra. I tend to agree with you there. I am currently getting some GB freindly flyers made. I am hoping to get a toll free GB 0800 number so our leads can phone the opp here. If anyone from the top is reading this!!! can you help with this. ![Huh](http://talk.ws/Smileys/default/huh.gif) I am also going to try the local rags to see if I can drum anything up there. Hopefully we will succeed. Regards Ron

Hi i am from nottingham and also market mainly to the u.s. market which is a shame as i recon the uk is wide open I have had little success with obtaining any uk leads and those on offer are at crazy prices I have batled against the time difference and built my down line to 98 despite it. I too would be interested in any tips or advice on marketing this great opportunity to our home market

98 - not bad, I am at the break even 10 point, although only been really marketing it within the last week, what source of leads do you use?
Best wishes all, Scott

Hi Rod, This is Dave Malley from near Heathrow Airport.I`m a Senior Citizen trying to use the "Net" to boost my income, and I have to say that GDI is the best thing since sliced bread. You`ll find the UK Market hard to crack---whenever I try to promote it to the Brits, I mostly get back: However---Persistence will pay in the long run. I suggest you concentrate on getting say 10 sign ups in the USA first,then see if you can find any reasonable lead sources in the UK. Lead prices in the UK are at silly costs at the moment because the companies that are "sourcing" them are having to pay out so much to get them. I wish you succes in all you do and although I`m not allowed to promote my own website from here--------I think I can point you to the "Showcase your Website" Forum "
Best of luck to you---------Dave Malley----------(rainmanuk)

Hi all you Brits!
I'm from Shropshire and I can tell you that there are UK folk out there who see the potential. I've proved it - with around 200 in my team so far 99% of them are from the UK. You may have seen my name at Number TWO on the LeaderBoard recently?
How did I do it?
By Direct Mail.
Sending a simple A4 flyer out to postcode addresses.
Don't give up - we're a bit slow over here when it comes to Network Marketing but you just have to target the right people.
Regards
Paul E. Watts
