Hi Janet,

Rob here from South Africa.

Nice of you to offer GDI training, but like Eddie I'm in another time-zone - US conference calls are usually at round about 2am here . Is there any possibility of you recording those training sessions at all?

Regards and God bless,
Rob

Howzi-i-i-i-t Eileen!

Rob here from the Friendly City of Port Elizabeth, and one of my GDI upline is in Cape Town!

Just thought I'd pop in a reply to let you know that you aren't totally alone here. I share in your frustrations - the time delay, telephone setback, and Paypal's such a drag - just about every online opportunity wants to pay you through them, or send you a cheque, which is also not really viable because of the time it takes and the hefty bank charges on our side. Still, glad to see your positive attitude.

I know that other countries also have problems with lack of Paypal access, so I guess all we can really do is contact support and request other options for commission payments, eg Stormpay, that are accessible to us.

How about promoting the opportunity locally, offline? My son's (private) school sent home a letter re fundraising, so I went and had a chat with the principle today about the opportunity. They had placed a full-page colour ad in one of the local free papers, and another long ad in the local weekend paper - a very expensive exercise, to say the least....and they don't have a website!

The idea is that the school registers a site to market themselves (a really significant cost saving) and markets the opportunity to the parents, thus generating a residusl income for themselves and offering the parents the opportunity to market to other small businesses, etc. It's a very young school and growing rapidly, so it has good potential. The principal was very receptive to the idea, and will advise the owner that I'll be contacting her. Oh, and in the same fundraising circular, the school is also offering itself as a venue for business seminars......

So... just keep your eyes and ears open for any opportunity that presents itself, and good luck with your efforts!
