ROADMAP TO RICHES -- THE REVIEW- Scam or Legit?

By David Lengacher

Brian Grant, an ex-football player, created Roadmap to Riches to give its members the opportunity to do a home based business. Roadmap to Riches offers a home based business opportunity by marketing their products using direct selling technique. The products that Roadmap to Riches sells are already designed to help the individual with personal, wealth, and also social development skills.

When you join Roadmap to Riches, you will be given access to e-books, audio downloads, and also personal development materials that you have to promote in order to develop your own business. These are the products that you need to sell. Some $8 to $9 billion dollars are spent in the personal development industry annually, meaning you should be able sell their products without any problem.

In order to join Roadmap to Riches, first you are required to pay $999. This is treated as a registration fee. You are also required to pay $49.95 per month to cover the monthly membership fee. If you sum it all up, you will get a total of almost $2,000. That is the amount of money you have to spend just in the first year of Roadmap to Riches. There is no advertising cost included.

One of the most important aspects of the company that cannot be overlooked is how you get paid. First and foremost, Roadmap to Riches uses a two-up compensation program. It means that you have to pass up your first two sales to your sponsor, meaning you will get nothing until your third sale. Inevitably, your sponsor will help you until you make your second sale, because they will gain profits from it. Afterwards, they will most likely leave you to find new down lines, and you are left to support yourself. The disadvantage of this type of compensation is that most people will spend more time trying to encourage people to join the business instead of selling the actual products, as it is more profitable (and easier to do).

These kinds of problems will not arise if you join companies that offer matching override commission compensation programs. In this kind of compensation program, you are not required to pass up any of your sales to your sponsor. In other words, you keep everything for yourself. You will also receive money from its override commissions when you manage to make a sale. This override type will also lead you to become a real successful businessman, as in this system you do not only find new people to join, but you also have to make sales yourself. It is a fairer system.

Now the ball is in your court to decide which Home Based Business is right for you whether it be RoadMap To Riches or another one.
