There are mixed reports circulating about Coastal Vacations
as an earning opportunity. At its best it seems a way for
honest people to make big commissions on the packages they
sell, while at its worst, some are hawking paperwork on
eBay that can leave buyers out in the cold. It is not the
most straightforward 2-up opportunity around, so it is in
your best interest to research not only the company but
also the integrity of the director you are in contact with
if you decide to join the program. The emphasis on
recruiting more people makes it seem like it could be a
scam. This review is meant to help you sort out how the
program works and what some of the key benefits and
drawbacks might be.
Concept
Coastal Vacations offers discounted travel packages at
three levels, beginning at a $1295 membership, going up to
$11,000. Thus it offers vacation opportunities to affluent
families who enjoy travel, as well as a 2-up business
opportunity.
Benefits
- The vacation packages may offer significant value for
people who have the time and money to travel. The company
reports you can save up to 75%.
- Joining as a Level I, Level II, or Level III director
gives you the opportunity to make $1000 to $6500 per sale
(after your first two training sales).
-When people sign up under you, the commissions on their
first two training sales go to you. The more people you
recruit and train, the more training sale commissions
should come to you.
Drawbacks
- Many people lack the time and money needed to travel as
much as each package includes. Also, the packages are for
two people, no more no less. There are also blackout dates
and other seasonal limitations on the offers.
- You will have to invest a considerable amount, at least
$1295 to join.
- Because the memberships are transferable, some people
have figured out how to do an end run around the training
sales. This means they can skip the process of training
and attain their desired director level without having to
give up any sales. This also means that you may not get
your supposed commission for training someone who bought
their directorship at an online auction site.
Implications
As a business opportunity, this program is not ideal for
the novice salesperson. However, if you are person who has
the money to invest, enjoys travel, selling, and building
contacts with more well to do people, this opportunity
might be appropriate to explore further. Care must be taken
to fully understand how the business operates and how
trustworthy directors that you are dealing with are. Some
claim that their sponsor misled them, but those incidents
seem most likely related to the people involved, and
perhaps not due to the company themselves, which has been
operating for 13 years.
