Meeting Mr. Triple Diamond

While I was still active in Quixtar, I got a call to have a private meeting with one of only two Quixtar Founders Triple Diamonds in North America. There were 7 people in the room. My wife and I, three other IBO's, my upline sponsor, (who is a diamond), and the Founders Triple Diamond. What took place in the next two hours is a big reason why I am no longer active in Quixtar today, although at the time the meeting served what I imagine to be it's purpose, to get me excited and more dedicated.

Basically what was outlined in the meeting is the amount of money we could make if we just kept "showing the plan" and "plugging in" to our upline. (We were in the 4,000PV range at the time.) Mr. Triple Diamond went on to say that there were changes going on within the system. Changes that would make it more lucrative once you became a diamond. We would make money on books, tapes, functions, voicemail, and even websites. Mr. Triple Diamond even compared the possible income to that of a professional basketball player, indicating that millions of dollars could be made if we chose to follow the path that they had laid before us. He even said at one point that his income would blow away Gary Payton's in the long run. Gary Payton had just signed a contract paying him $85 Million over 7 years.

Interestingly, Mr. Triple Diamond never mentioned any income from Quixtar itself. He ended the meeting by saying this: "I wish I could have this meeting with everyone in my group, but I can't."

I later realized that in order for anyone to make millions in Quixtar, they had to have a group of people that were losing millions. The last statement Mr. Triple Diamond made didn't make any sense to me at the time. I thought to myself, "Wouldn't everyone be as excited as I am right now if they knew where the money was coming from and how much was available?" The simple answer is NO! If Mr. Triple Diamond stood on a stage and said, "Hey Gang, I make 80% of my income from books, tapes, and functions, see you at the next function". I imagine a lot of people would not go to the next function.

I knew that I could build a Quixtar Business. I later began to question whether or not I wanted to build a Quixtar Business based on what I knew.

Quick comment. Yes I am an IBO, however I did have a question about the above statement that the diamonds make 80% of their money via functions, Cd's, etc. I definatly see your point. But my question is what is wrong with that?

I am also the President of a real estate company that purchases multi-million dollar commercial and residential property. I have been to several wealth conferences over the last 5-6 years all outside of the business to help me in my real estate ventures. I know I spend a lot of money on these real estate conferences, but I do it for the education. I have also spent thousands of dollars on programs and continuing education in my field. The latest product I just bought cost me $850. It had a 200 page booklet and maybe 12 CD's in it. But the point is I learned a ton from it and it has made me well beyond my investment.

I think quixtar is basically doing the same thing, right. Profitting off of running seminars and selling educational programs is just good business. I know I have made a ton from speaking engagements. Sometimes more in a givin year then I made as President of the company!

What actually drew me to the Quixtar business in the first place was how incredibly cheap these millionaires were willing to share their information for. Sure the opportunity is good too, but paying only $100 bucks for a conference and only $7.50 for an educational CD. Look at who much it costs to see people like Zig Ziggler, Robert Kiyosaki, John Maxwell, and Bill Clinton. They all charge thousands upfront. Thats just my 2 cents since I feel I am a fairly successful business owner, and only having been teamed up with Quixtar for less then a year.
