Below is a snip from the latest Barry Minkow – Fraud Discovery Institute press release. I hope that what I am going to say does not come off as inconsiderate…if it does, I’m sorry.

There is not a person on earth that calls 200 leads per week and doesn’t sponsor anyone. PERIOD. Those kinds of numbers will overcome any lack of skills. I don’t even care what company you are with. Pick the company with the worst reputation, worst compensation and worst product line and you will still sponsor people when calling 200 leads a week.

SAN DIEGO/EWORLDWIRE/May 25, 2007 — In the first of a
two-part, new YouTube video release, the Fraud Discovery Institute
details the story of Steve Estes, former Usana (NASDAQ: USNA) Associate
(Number 2028731) from Temple, Georgia. Estes, who was born blind,
became a Usana distributor in December of 2001 with hopes of attaining
financial freedom and doing more than simply becoming a consumer of the
company’s product.

"Leaders in the company would
work to persuade me that I was one associate sign-up away from true
wealth," he said. "I funded minimum mandatory auto ship purchases in
three business centers every year for four years before I cut back in
year five to one business center."

Estes was committed to the
opportunity presented to him: he poured his life savings, his time and
went as far as taking out a second mortgage on his home to build up his
Usana multi level marketing business. Despite regularly attending both
regional and national conventions, purchasing multiple training tools
and even leads – which required him to cold call potential associates
at a rate of 200 per week – Estes was unable to sign-up distributors
.
