What are social shopping networks anyway?

They are based on a latest social networks’ trend and provide interactive, advanced and effective way to discover and publish products, share opinions and engage in a discussion about products. Here are few simple concepts to learn about social networks.

Use Tags to publish your favorite items and sites.

Tag is simply a relevant keyword or term associated with or assigned to a piece of information. Let’s say you found a coupon for gold ring on a web. If you are a member of social network, you can publish site URL (what you see in address bar of the browser) and a short description of the item/site found.

That way members decide what is important, in a case of social shopping network it can be the best product offer.

Numis Network Review

Saturday, May 21st, 2011

There’s a fairly new home based business that launched back on August 15th, 2009, called Numis Network. If you’re reading this article, chances are you’ve heard of it and are wondering if this will be another network marketing or MLM scam or is it a legitimate business where you can make good money and is worth a serious look. Before I spend any time joining or marketing a new home based business, I like to look at what I call the three P’s. The People, The Product and The Pay Plan.

Now, what I thought when I first saw in Numis Network is here it is, it’s a refreshing product. It’s not a me too product. You’ll never see this on the shelf at Costco for $8.99 and you don’t have to see if people’s digestions agree with it, or if it’s something that they are already doing or not because Numis network really has no competition. And so I saw something that had a refreshing product. They have no competition. They are at the very top. There are 5,500 people in the entire company and also let’s face it, there’s a worldwide interest in gold and silver right now. But, let me cover this. They are a brand new company. They actually launched August 15th, of 2009, and your most important thing when it comes to network marketing is the management, is the people.

Who are the people behind the product? The three founders of this company are Ian Cordell, Chris Kent and Jake Kevorkian. Now, they have over 60 years of experience in network marketing. Jake was actually the number one earner in network marketing company called Vaxa. He ended up buying that company, sold off his rights back in 2007. Ian and Chris actually launched Optimal Telecom back in the 90s, built that up to 350,000 customers with 100,000 reps and then sold back in the 90s. So they’ve actually been reps. They’ve been in your shoes; they’ve been in my shoes. They’ve also been owners of companies. Now, probably the most profound thing, the profound experience about these guys is they own a company named IDSTC.

IDSTC stands for International Direct Selling Technology Corporation. For the last 10 years, they’ve been helping almost 400 other network marketing companies create their compensation plans, create their back offices, and run their software for them. And so for the past 10 years, they have seen basically every possible combination of compensation plan — and they just chose the best of the best when they launched Numis Network. Now one of their partners is a gentleman named Mike Mezack. Imagine going into an industry and you get the number one salesman in the world right from the beginning.

Thats that’s exactly what they’ve done. Mike Mezack is the number one salesman in the world of numismatic coins. Over the last 20 years he sold over one billion dollars worth of collectible graded coins. And so they actually partnered up with him, he’s their exclusive partner. Last year on the Home Shopping Network, he worked eight hours a month and sold $125M worth of collectible graded coins. Think about that, on Home Shopping Network. I don’t know anyone that rushes home to catch the Home Shopping Network or records it or anything like that. He sold $125M worth of collectible numismatic coins to channel surfers. So is there a market out there? Absolutely.

Now what exactly is their product? Their product is gold and silver graded coins. Sometimes people here the word numismatic and they think collectibles, like a state quarter or a Lincoln penny, that’s not what they do. They deal with government issued graded gold and silver coins, such as the Proof coin, Silver Eagle, the Australian Kookaburra, the Canadian Maple Leaf, the Australian Koala, the Chinese Panda and a lot of other government issued graded gold and silver coins. Now here’s what they are not, they are not a precious medal investment program. They don’t deal in bullion. Now what else are they? They are not a consumable, a fruit juice, a protein powder, a gas additive or a website. They are revolutionizing and pioneering this category of numismatics which is $100B industry, which has never been done before in home based business.

Let me share with you the pay plan. The pay plan is the first network marketing compensation plan in history to combine a coded bonus with a binary compensation plan. Folks that is huge. Let me just tell you the tale of two MLM’s. A good friend of mine joined his first network marketing company a few years back. It was a juice related binary. He filled both of his legs because the binary has two legs, and he developed nine six-figure earners on his team, unfortunately all on one leg. So he saw his check dwindle, dwindle, dwindle down to really nothing because the pay plan ratcheted by how you can balance your legs.

He is now in this company and because of the coded bonus, he has a gentlemen on his big leg who’s personally recruited 140 people in the last couple of months. Every time he generates a $50 bonus, my friend received a $50 bonus. Every time he generates $100 bonus, my friend would get $100 bonus and he’s on his big leg. You know what, pay me $100 per person while I catch up. I’m cool with that.

I’ve shown this the Numis pay plan to veterans and leaders in network marketing, people who have 30 years experience in network marketing. Even they are saying this is the best compensation plan they’ve ever seen.

So let me ask you a question, If I knock on your door and I say high I’m Adrian with Antioxidant Juice and I have a trunk full of juice bottles and you can have as many as you want. How many are you going to take? Two, three, four? What if I knocked on that same door and I say, I’m Adrian with Newman’s Network and I have a truck full of graded gold and silver coins for you, take as many as you’d like. How many are you going to take then? You’re going to take every single one. You’re going to tear my upholstery, look under the seats, check my pockets, and get your wheelbarrow. You’re going to take every single one. They’re actually the ultimate consumable because you just can’t have enough of these.

While it’s still early in the game, all signs point to Numis Network being the real deal and not a scam. The company’s success and longevity will be determined by the reception they get from network marketers, whether they pay commissions on time and treat their affiliates with respect. If you enjoy building a network marketing business, I recommend that you take a look.
