Why is it that everyone thinks that there are quick ways to make money? The only way to make quick money is to steal it.
The new MLM scheme is Wow Mobile. Although the Wow reps state it is not a multi-level marketing plan. Really? Bring 3 friends and get a free cell phone for life? That doesn't sound like MLM?
Backed by Liberty International, it is supposedly an MVNO plan on T-Mobile offering the HTC Google phone. (Just $399.95). Those are pluses, but let's remember that no pure MVNO model has lasted yet. Not ESPN. Not Disney. Not Helio backed by hundreds of millions from EarthLink and SK Telecom. Not even Virgin Mobile, which Sprint bought for $483M last year, after Virgin acquired a limping Helio.
The nice thing is that Liberty International, based right here in Tampa Bay, has a bunch of products to make you $2000 per month: WiMax, VoIP, cellular, toll-free, long distance, dial-up, websites - almost every commodity available through an affiliate channel. But that's not all! You can also sell music, DVD's, body care, nutrition, and sales leads. Yes! You can buy sales leads from Liberty International - 500 for just $248.95!
"Liberty International has launched a new free cell phone service that is named WOW Mobile, to which is sure to wow! The WOW Mobile prices for each service are based on the service limitations. For $59.95 you can have access to unlimited calls to US. At $69.95 you get to enjoy unlimited call as well as unlimited texting. For $89.95 one gets unlimited any time calls to anywhere in the US, with unlimited texting and email and unlimited internet connectivity. As it comes with an inbuilt AIR card user can connect to wide area wireless Internet access without any difficulty." Seems like you could buy this same plan direct from T-Mobile and get a subsidized phone.
But then if you bring in 3 friends you get service for free. How? Why doesn't anyone ask HOW? But then if Americans could do math, the subprime mortgage mess wouldn't have happened.
The costs involved go beyond just the wholesale contract with T-Mobile and paying for bulk minutes, bulk SMS text messaging and data MB's. There is handset fulfillment - support, logistics, repair, and asset management - which we have just seen with the Nexus One is not Google's strong suit. Then there is billing, which by far is the biggest PITA for a service provider. With billing comes bad debt, credit card payments, and billing reconciliation with the carrier. Good luck with that. All of this while paying residuals to agents and giving free service away. Yep! Start the Death Watch on this one.

I have to say I really love mobile marketing, it provides business with efficient , fast and highly cost-effective tool for reaching target customers. Recently I watched a documentary about today top intenet business, interesting film '' The YES Movie ''produced by Louis Lautman
at www.TheYESmovie.com
Call for a chat if your looking interested in becoming a liberty/wow rep...
liberty have had the 3 is free marketing plan 10 years, with over 300 products...this is nothing new for them.
I can inform you of the latest great Wow news!
I understand this sounds too good to be true.(kinda why Im selling it) I have been a rep for two months and my cell service is now free. I have a new Google Android Phone and its just about as sweet as my former IPhone. ..... The best part is, it is a very low out of pocket to start so you can turn a profit in less than two months! Good luck everyone.
this proof of the pudding is in the tasting my friends. i joined in december and my checks continue to increase by at least 300$ per week. this is not by any stretch of the meaning a scam or any thing of the like. it is a legitimate offer. join now and see for your self. Join our team i will personally ensure your financial success with our turn key marketing and lead sharing programs.
All the best,

Some things I do not like about WoW Mobile:
1) You have to sign up as a rep in order to be eligible for your cellular service.
2) The Monthly fees are too high priced - $79.99
3) The Phone number you are given is not in your name, it is in Randy Jeffers name. (see here: http://www.scam.com/showthread.php?s=cec27dc07cf7d0549900e8d9d56647f3&t=119525&page=13)
4) In order to be a rep and to be able to buy the cell phone service, you need to get in under one of three plans: as much as $1,199.99.
5) Wow Mobile Can No Longer Mention Tmobile In Any Ads, They Can't Even Use The Tmobile Sim Cards.
6) No tourable office or facility - Just Randy Jeffers P.O. Box
Lightyear Wireless on the other hand:
1) To gain customers they do NOT need to sign up to be reps.
2) Unlimited Talk, Text, and Web for only $59.99 - You _+ 3 = FREE (just like WoW, only $20.00 Less - and on the Sprint Network!)
3) Your Phone, not the company's.
4) $49.99 to start as a manager.
5) Partnered with Sprint and Verizon - the nations 2 largest wireless providers!
7) Operating for 16 years in an 80,000 square foot facility in Louisville, KY. A REAL Company location.
To learn more about Lightyear Wireless, gimme a hollar, I'll be glad to compare Lightyear Wireless to WoW! Mobile, FHTM (Fortune Hi-Tech Marketing) ACN, or any other "Wireless" MLM company out there.
