Company originally stated you would get a 30% residual commission on all of your members and brokers as long as they remained. Now they will take away some or all of your commission if you do not retain a large percentage. In the auto industry, when a dealer advertises to lease a car for $199.oo per month, they are required to put somewhere in the ad that there are other stipulations, such as $1900 down, license fee etc. Ameriplan never indicated that and the literature and DVD's state, sell it one time and get paid year after, as long as they remained - NO STIPULATIONS!

I feel that they should grandfather everyone that signed up as a broker in the past, and if they want to change the policy, print new brochures and make new DVD's, and then any new brokers would know what that policy is.

Simply click on "Unsubscribe" to be REMOVED

AUTHOR: Kelly - ()

POSTED: Saturday, November 02, 2013

I am writing this as an employee, since that's the option it has, but we are actually Independent Business Owners.  We use a very sophisticated back office system, which does not promote or allow us to spam.  

It's very simple to be removed from the system, you just have to click on the link at the bottom of ANY email you receive to unsubscribe, and you will taken off the autoresponder - hence, the emails will no longer come...  

We don't have time nor the want to sit by and keep emailing you over and over, as we are very busy training those who are becoming successful.  It is all done, as I mentioned, through and Auto-Responder.  

So simply click to unsubscribe.  As long as you don't let the system know you don't want the information anymore - how do we have any idea you aren't still interested?

Of course, if you keep filling out forms on the internet stating that you are looking for a legitimate home based business, which Ameriplan is, you will no doubt get yourself back onto someone's system.

Just a word for thought:  You are no doubt getting on some leads generation (generic) site.  By doing this, you are offering your information out there to anyone and everyone who goes through these sites to obtain leads.  This will also cause your phone to ring NON-STOP as those leads places often give or sell your leads numerous times!  So you can't blame Ameriplan IBO's if they keep getting your information and call you.  We only call those who show an interest in working from home, or requested information about Ameriplan.  

We want to help those who want to work from home, and offer them an amazing opportunity to do so.  Most complaints come from people who do not know how to become successful, or have no idea how to run their own business, and have to put the blame somewhere.  

I am one, and I work alongside with many team members who are VERY successful with Ameriplan!!!  If you aren't dedicated, and don't apply good work ethics to your home business, the same as you would to your employer - you will not be successful in any business you do.  For those, you are better off going to a boss everyday so he can direct and dictate how you spend your day to be productive.  With any home business, you have to able to be dedicated.   And when I read these complaints, I can tell they are written by people who want to just be GIVEN money.

The funny thing about a site like this is, you don't know anything about these people who writing this garbage.  They could be sitting around their house drinking or smoking pot or worse!  So people really have to take them with a grain of salt.  

Anyone can be successful with Ameriplan if they do the work and truly love to help people!!!

Lead system

AUTHOR: Steve - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Friday, March 23, 2007

For the lady who filled out a form over a year ago...

Come on now are they hounding you or are they politely following up with you? I mean I can't speak for every IBO, but I know I don't "hard-sell" anyone into business. It's not a productive practice.

However, when someone fills out a form requesting info on working from home, 2 things immediately pop into my mind:
1)How can I help them?
2)Could this be the hardworking, team player that I would love to have on my team and build a life long business relationship with.

Not everybody signs up right away even if they liked the opportunity. It's just not the right timing for everybody the first time they see it. So it would then be my DUTY to keep the opportunity in front of you for you to reference and assess how it fits in with YOUR long term goals. Now is that hounding you or welcoming you?

You said you don't want a business such as this, then what kind of business do you want? Or do you just want another job? The big picture you need to realize is that we have the deal, you don't, but it is available to you. Now would you prefer that we close the opportunity to you forever... or welcome you to the opportunity for as long as it takes for you to see how you might be able to leverage the opportunity?

Believe me, we do have better things to do than "hound" people. If you have no interest in a work from home opportunity, stop filling out work from home webforms. That way you will never be contacted and the situation that you thought working form home could fix will stay exactly how it is.

Best wishes!

AUTHOR: Lori - (U.S.A.)

How can you say that about Ameriplan?

AUTHOR: Joe - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Tuesday, February 13, 2007

Where are all the indignant IBOs? I think Ameriplan is going down! I am an existing broker and have signed up over 100 members.

My monthly has gone from appx $200 / month positive to $20 / month negative since this change. This company is bleeding its brokers again! Even the successful brokers (like me).

I am waiting for an Ameriplanner to defend this action. You can bet every active broker has taken a hit on this one. Good luck finding support.

This company is a crock. I wish I had never signed up four years ago. By the way, I'm a Senior Regional Sales Director. Member retention and IBO retention is less than 25% in my experience. Don't listen to the lies you hear when they try to sign you up

Don't blame your friends - your friends that are trying to sign you up don't know that they are lying to you. Their NSD sponsors know it's a lie however.
