What is Fortune Hi Tech Marketing and what does it do as a business in the marketplace?

Fortune was founded in January 2001, a debt free company that does $100's millions of business both in the United States and the international marketplace. Its strategy is that of a "Broker" of mainstream monthly-billed products and services that are in demand. Cingular Wireless and Dish Network TV service are examples of this. Whatever is now or becomes a major buying trend by consumers - we want to be in that industry. This business model allows the companies we represent to gain more customers while we gain a residual income from a % of the monthly billing... a win-win business relationship.

A company such as Cingular will do all the customer service, billing and collecting, etc so that after the initial order is placed this % revenue becomes a very passive and long-term income both for Fortune and ourselves as independent brokers with the company.

What is Network Marketing / Multi - Level - Marketing (MLM)?

Legitimate MLM is the means by which a company effectively and efficiently moves its products or services to the end consumer. Other means could be TV advertisement or Direct Mail for example. The reason MLM is so appealing to companies is that they only pay out their marketing dollars AFTER the consumer has paid for the product or service and therefore are very willing to pay a residual commission every month to keep that customer. Understand that in most cases the most expensive part of having a customer in the retail arena is the AQUISITION COST.

With MLM that cost is now fixed since it is paid after the acquisition. Plus, the customers tend to stay much, much longer (RETENTION) since they came from 'word of mouth referral' - the most powerful form of marketing to the consumer. Repeat monthly customers means more revenue and profit for the companies involved.

MLM also allows companies to grow very, very fast without a lot of capital expense since it has an independent marketing force to move the product or service to the consumer. Our advantage (meaning you and me) is that we get to be part of and get PAID from billion dollar industries that would normally be out of reach to individuals to do business in a big way.

After all, how much would it cost to start your own Cellular or Satellite TV Company on a national or international basis to create a residual income?

What are Residual Income and Leveraged Income?

RESIDUAL INCOME means getting paid over and over again for something you do ONE TIME. Songwriters and singers receive royalties (residuals) when their music is played on radio stations. Movie actors receive royalties (residuals) when the film goes to DVD and when merchandise is sold such as in the Harry Potter or Star Wars movie series.

Social security and a retirement income is a form of residual income EXCEPT that the "one time" you worked spanned 30 plus years!!

Fortune pays you a residual income NOW as your customers use products and services every month.

LEVERAGED INCOME is when you are doing PART of the work but gaining a benefit or getting paid a share in ALL the work. This is working smart and not hard. For example, Fortune is leveraging itself by partnering with Cingular Wireless, using all their resources for Cingular's benefit and ours. In turn, you and I are using Fortune's resources for their benefit and ours. And once again, we build teams of people as a network-marketing group to build up the revenue faster. This becomes a win-win relationship for all concerned.

The important difference here is that we do not make money off of the backs of our group. Everyone gets the exact same compensation plan. Fortune Hi Tech pays out our commissions. Your pay is in direct correlation to the amount of business and revenue you bring to the company. This is a fundamental departure from the pay model in Corporate America... which is shaped like a true pyramid.

This leverage allows individuals to come into billion dollar industries and build a business and income that normally would be out of reach. That is why such large incomes (100k / month) can be developed. It isn't magic - it's just smart - and can only happen because of leverage.

When you combine residual income with leverage you have the best of both worlds. Add in the tax advantages and the fact that someone else ( Fortune ) is doing all the management and administration and what you get is the opportunity to build a very large business, very fast, with a very small start up cost and the time to enjoy the money as you go.

You have gained freedom and a lifestyle!

What is the difference between a legitimate, legal Network Marketing company and a Pyramid Scheme?

A legal MLM company provides a real product or service to the end consumer at a competitive price. A pyramid scheme, which is ILLEGAL and lasts only as long as it takes for government agencies to shut them down (most often within 1 year) can usually be identified with a product that is overpriced even if it is in demand by the public and / or there are commissions paid for the act of recruiting people into the business.

In Fortune, other than training, commissions are only paid when customers are gathered either by yourself or people in your marketing group.

Also, pyramid schemes are usually denoted by representations of very large incomes in just a few months time. Real business just doesn't work that way. Yes, you can make enormous incomes with Fortune (50 - 100k / month) but it still will take at least a few years ... and of course the work must get done - there is no free lunch! Still, 3 - 5 years vs. a 40-year working career? You choose.

What is the Myth vs. Reality in MLM?

First, people mistake legitimate network marketing opportunities for pyramid schemes and reject them out of hand before doing any proper due diligence. That's what I did - I didn't know any better. Their friend might have been in a scheme with out realizing it and lost money. Then that person spreads the negative news and people make a general conclusion for all companies that seem similar. So they miss out on a great financial change for themselves and their families.

Furthermore, they are under the misconception that you have to be first to make any significant money. Not so. When you are in expanding industries with products and services in demand you as an individual have plenty of room to build as big a business as you desire. For example we broker for Cingular Wireless and Dish Satellite TV... do you think those industries are shrinking or growing in size? The key is to be inside large growing trends by positioning yourself to take profitable advantage.

With a growing population in the U.S. (and our company is growing internationally as well) there is an expanding pool of people who not only want more money in their lives but also are looking for you as much as you are looking for them. Another misconception is that people often think... "That's where you get your friends to work for you" ...not true. We are all independent contractors and trust me no one comes into this business to work for anybody else. They are looking to get away from that!

In fact, as your group grows you find that you want to work for them! Why? Because the more you help them grow their business faster and bigger the more money Fortune Hi-Tech will pay YOU! It's a win-win relationship. When people finally understand this one concept its hard for them to back to the working world. They are excited to join with us.

This business model is so much better than employment whether you work for someone else or own your job by being self- employed. When you add the advantage of leverage to create a significant income in a short period of time along with the prospect of having an even larger income than you could have ever had the opportunity to make otherwise and its hard not to be part of this industry.

Why is it a financial advantage $$$ to receive a 1099 vs. a W 2 for my income reported to the IRS?

It's not only how much you make but also how much you keep!

A W 2 employee wage is, in almost all cases, the most expensive and slowest way to increase your wealth. You pay more taxes and you pay them up front, with very limited tax deductions. A 1099 income has the advantage of many more tax deductions outside of house mortgages plus you gain the ability to move much more of your $$$ into a RETIREMENT TAX FREE OR TAX DEFERRED ACCOUNT (in addition to what you may have at your place of employment) as well as more options in terms of shifting income to other family members and starting retirement accounts for them at a much earlier age. All this boils down to more money for you in your hands.

Consult a tax specialist for the details that would apply to your situation.

Whether you keep your job or not everyone, in my opinion, should have a home-based business to increase their income and legally reduce their taxes.

Why does Fortune Hi-Tech have a fee of $299 to enter into the opportunity?

Somebody has to do the work and this fee covers much of their cost to support us in the field! It's either you or the company. Fortune has set up all the contracts with the companies we broker for, hired the attorneys, keeps track of all the revenue and commissions due both to you and people in your group,etc. They hired the employees to run the day-to-day operations inside the home office. They provide corporate training both in a kit and live classroom training across the country.

All this would be too much for an individual starting a part time business. We pay them to cover the costs of doing what we don't want to do anyway. Plus, this creates for you a business as an independent contractor that you now own, is now international in scope, and which is saleable and willable to your heirs as well as all the tax advantages associated with having your own business.

How can they pay out so much money - it seems to good to be true?

They can, they do and it is true. First of all it didn't start this way. Remember, over time Fortune has grown with a customer base that stays and pays for their services EVERY MONTH. We have customers that stay year after year and Fortune DOES NOT do the servicing, i.e. - billing - collecting - customer support, which is left up to service provider (we are merely the broker which means a much lower overhead). This allows for more profit each year and so they have taken some of that profit and increased compensation to us as an incentive to grow our business... bigger, faster.

What you see now is a culmination of a successful company with years of hard work rewarding its marketing force to grow the company.

Who is CEO - Paul Orberson? What is his backround?

Fortune Hi-Tech is a privately held corporation and Paul is the founder, owner and CEO. He started his networking career in the early 90's as an independent rep with a MLM telecommunications company. That company went on to become a billion dollar company and Paul was the # 1 income earner receiving over 1 million dollars / month in commissions. He is smart, hard working and successful.

Paul started Fortune to further his career and to provide an opportunity for other people to have the same financial success that he has been able to enjoy.

What kind of coaching, training and support can I expect since I have the ambition but don't have any experience?

The company provides ongoing classroom training and you receive a training package when you join. In the field, our team has a website which supports you with live and recorded online training, conference calls as well as support material that can be downloaded.

Most importantly, you have a sponsor... me... Kevin Pine. You are not alone. I have built organizations spanning 4 countries with over 74k people realizing an income of over 100k / month. You and the group we develop together has a partner providing personal ongoing guidance for the purpose of achieving financial freedom for those who want to work for it.

What are the abilities needed to be reach 10k / month in income?

First and foremost it takes desire and the ambition to make a significant change in your financial life. You need to be coachable and self motivated. Everything else can be taught along the way. It doesn't matter where you have come from but rather where you want to end up that counts.

Do I have to be a salesperson and knock on doors?

No. We are not salespeople and don't "sell" as most people would interpret that word. We are business people, marketing people, and a network marketing team that works together to gather a few customers each to provide residual income where we can share in the profits. You only need 10 services total to be qualified for our marketing plan. Many of your customers are going to come from yourself since we all use: Internet, TV service, Cell phones, Local and Long distance service, etc. The rest will likely come from close family and friends since all consumers use these products and services. You may choose to get your remaining customers from the general public - its up to you.

It makes sense to get a monthly commission from the services you are already using as a comsumer and get a tax deduction that you never had because they are now part of your business to market the company and the opportunity! Working smart and not hard by using leverage for everyone's benefit.

How fast can I make a make an income that pays my house payment?

With an average mortgage payment of between 1-3k/ month an individual can make that amount of money within 3 months of starting their business. Can they do it faster? Certainly. Slower? Yes. Can you make more than that? Of course. However, please remember that it is a business and the work has to get done. The money is there to be made and the company is very generous in what they pay you to do.

Still, everyone is different and the effort each person will put in will be different according to his or her ambitions, time availability and skills they bring to their business when they start. Bottom line... do the work as fast as you want and get paid as much as you want... its entirely up to you.
