IN THE COACH'S CORNER: JOHN DAGOSTINO |
|
| |
|
Coach's Corner Welcomes John and Maria Dagostino !
John and Maria live in Canyon Lake, California and offer these comments about
Coach's Corner membership: "Now that we have been promoted to Coach's Corner, we
feel that the hardest part of growing our YTB businesses is over and life with
YTB will get much easier and more financially lucrative. The impact that YTB has
already made on our financial situation has been great and our future is going
to get better now that we are going to be mentored by Coach!"
John and Maria work both the marketing and travel side of their YTB businesses
on a part time basis. Daughter Sabrina is a Level 1 Director (who became a
Director in nine months!) and the couple's goal is to make Director in less than
a year. They have been to Red Carpet Days and invite anyone to attend who is
serious about making a change in their life.
They will be attending this year's National Convention, with the goal of being a
Director at that time. John explains, "YTB has been a savior in our life. It
came into our lives at the right time and at the right place; it has made a
tremendous impact and we are ready to commit to YTB and quit our jobs and be a
full time YTBers. When that day comes, it will be one of the greatest days we
have ever experienced in our lives. Thank you Coach and YTB for making our
dreams come true. We love you, John and Maria."

PASSPORT TO GIVING TRAININGS |
|
| |
|

Passport to Giving Trainings
With all the new material in the Passport to Giving program, we encourage all previously
Association Certified RTAs to come back to a live training for a refresher
course (currently, the refresher course is limited to the live trainings).
There is no cost for Association Certified RTAs to attend a live training.
|
Many non-profits today are looking for a new way to
fundraise and we have the answer! Forget the candy or bake
sales and clunker car programs; travel is the ultimate
fundraiser! Our innovative program provides non-profit
organizations
a dramatically different way to raise funds for their
organization.
By enrolling a non-profit in this unique program, the
organization is provide a "private label" YTB travel
website customized with their organization name and log.
The website is then promoted to the organizations'
supporters and members to use when booking their personal
or business travel. (We can also assist the organization
in organizing group travel events for their supporters).
As supporters use the organization's travel website, the
organization receives 60% of the travel commissions earned
by YTB, paid as royalties. |
The RTA who sponsors the
non-profit receives a 10% override of the travel
commissions generated by the non-profit and a $300 signing
bonus (60% of the sign-up fee)!
Passport To Giving can raise thousands of dollars per year
for an organization because they have a large number of
supporters that will generate travel bookings! Examples of
appropriate organizations include service, fraternal,
health, alumni, political, environ-mental, charity,
religious (including churches), and educational
organizations.
There are 1.5 million non-profits in the U.S. that need
our program! If you want to help non-profits and create a
consistent stream of income for your YTB business, come
join us in the Passport To Giving Program! |

CONGRATULATIONS TO THESE YTB LEADERS |

$1,000 Leadership
Bonus Recipients
May 16 - 22, 2008 |
 |
|
"Earning this Leadership Bonus has transformed YTB, for
me, from an interesting idea into a valuable asset."
Dave Dickson, May Leadership Bonus Earner
"I have never earned so much for so little effort."
Delilah Milne, May Leadership Bonus Earner
"Since being involved with YTB over the past two months,
when I average out the $1,000 Leadership Bonuses, we've
gotten at least $1,000 each week that I have been
involved. It means so much to know that through helping
others get to a position to earn the same income, you
can be rewarded $1,000 for doing so. I thank my wife,
Alina, for her support and God for putting Tracey Fisher
[sponsor] in our path to help bless so many people."
Micheal Towns, May Leadership Bonus Earner
"I am so excited to really be in the right place at the
right time. This Leadership Bonus is a powerful example
for all those who "thought it was too good to be true"
with YTB. I am getting closer to my financial goals
every day. I have invested less than 10 weeks and worked
much less than part time. I am thrilled with YTB and
look forward to many, many more Leadership Bonuses!!!
Thank you all at the corporate office for all of your
eager support; you really make a difference to all of us
in the field. I attribute much of my success to my
sponsors Kirk and Tia Chaffin; they have been amazing
support and fine examples of LEADERSHIP."
Sara Rogers, May Leadership Bonus Earner
"I could never do this alone without the help of my
team; they have helped me succeed to my PowerTeam and
they all too will get there with my support."
William Wyld, May Leadership Bonus Earner
"The Leadership Bonus, for me, is the beginning of the
end of financial burdens."
Carla Boston, May Leadership Bonus Earner
"Each Leadership Bonus I receive feels like the pat on
the back or a "that a boy" you would get from your boss.
It just makes me want to earn the next one that much
quicker."
John Graham, May Leadership Bonus Earner
"Our first Leadership Bonus of many- we are so excited
to be building this business; it is giving us the
ability to achieve our dreams! Thank you YTB."
Tasha and Craig Hall, May Leadership Bonus Earner |
|
|
How Do I Qualify for the $1,000 Leadership Bonus?

time to earn your $1,000 Leadership Bonuses.

Agencies sold by your PowerTeam reaches 6 or more at the end
of any weekly pay cycle (12 Midnight Thursday Eastern Time
