4) SETTING UP YOUR MERCHANT ACCOUNT- You have two choices of which I will explain the pros and cons and you
can decide which option you would like to use. Many of us have Authorize.Net but
we HIGHLY recommend Flagship Merchant Services.
RECOMMENDED-Authorization.net merchant accounts:
Mathieu Olivier
Senior Account Representative
Flagship Merchant Services
Office
866-416-0244 Ext 119
Fax:
866-682-1752
[email protected]
www.flagshipmerchantservices.com
Pros:
- Personal Account
Rep who is always accessible
- NO
Contract-Cancel at any time
- Set Up is within
24 hours during business days-Much faster than the next option.
- If you call
Mathieu and let him know you are referring someone to him or send him and
email, they pay a referral fee of $50 after 2 months of paid and active
service on the referrals account. This will be sent to you in the form of a
$50 AMEX debit card.
- Bad Credit is not
an issue with this company.
- Monthly Service
fee is only $16.95 per month
- Standard Credit
Card Visa/Mastercard/Discover transaction fee is 2.04%
- Debit transaction
fee is 0.99%
- American Express
transaction fee is 3.25%
Cons:
- Monthly fee for
monthly subscriptions-Setting your members up on their monthly subscriptions
is a flat $10. Best time to set up your customers monthly subscriptions is the
same day they join. See this attachment below to print up and keep next to you
for processing!
- You need to
manually go to your merchant account back office and set each payment up to
charge monthly (this should be set up to automatically do this soon)
Once this
account has been set up you will receive an email with your Authorize.net ARB
login Key and Transaction Key. You will go to your profile in your back office
of Empower Network and enter those in those boxes. You will find your profile
under the My Business tab. You will see a section for LinkPoint as well. You
will either use Authorize.net or Linkpoint, not both. Leave the boxes empty for
the company you are not using when you enter information in this section. Once
your information is entered for your merchant account in your profile Press the
update your profile button and test it by using the blue link at the bottom of
your profile page. You can call merchant support if you need help. That number
will be in your welcome email form Flagship Merchant Services.
2nd
choice- Empower Network Merchant Account vendor
The first video in your training tells you how to fill out the application and
submit it and how to enter the information in the back office. There are several
reasons why we recommend the first option even though it is $7 more a month than
this vendor.
 
Cons:
- You do not have
direct access to your rep
- There is a 6
Month contract with this company and can only be cancelled without HEFTY
penalty fees unless cancelled by the rep Clay King. Note: No one has been able
to reach him. So BEWARE before you choose this option just to save $7 a month.
- If you make any
mistakes in your application or verification process questions at the end of
the application, your application could be delayed by days if not weeks.
- Monthly is $19.95
- Does not accept
American Express
- Transaction fee
is roughly 3%
Pros:
- It is $10 less a
month than the Authorize.net
- The system
automatically sets up the monthly subscriptions. (It is a simple process to do
that in the back of your Authorize.net above, so this isn't really a deciding
factor)
- If the
Application is filled out perfectly and all the authorization questions are
answered correctly at the end of the application process, merchant accounts
are usually set up within 24 to 48 hours.
- Bad Credit is not
an issue with this company
- Customer support
is available 24/7 but they do not have the ability to cancel you account
without authorization from their agent (who is very hard to get a hold of)
NOTE: Most people that sign up
directly without speaking to you, and this will happen a lot, usually go to the
first video and follow those instructions for this merchant account vendor. If
you get a notification that you had a new member join, please send them a
welcome email with the link to this team site so they know what their options
are.
5) Setting your
members up on their monthly subscriptions on Authorize.net
Best time to set up
your customers monthly subscriptions is the same day they join. YOU MUST DO THIS in order to be paid each month for
your customers!
When a customers
pays- Log in to your
https://account.authorize.net with your
user ID and password>Go to Search at the top>Under settlement date click on the
drop down arrow and put in Date From and for To>Scroll down to the bottom and
Click on SEARCH> You will then see all transactions> Click on the transaction ID
number on the left hand side of the list> Then click on Create ARB Subscription
from Transaction (Blue link on the right) All information should be in > Under
Subscription Interval click the drop down menu and choose 'Every' so it says
every month-Make sure dot button is highlighted>Start Date-If you do not do this
process the same day, you will need to set the start date to be the day they
started. This is why this process is easier if you do this the same day you are
paid.> Under Subscription Duration it should read No End Date with the dot
button highlighted. This is usually defaulted to No End Date so if it is leave
it that way>Scroll to bottom and click submit-If you dont click submit you will
not get paid monthly! That's it!
Eventually this
will be automatic and we will let everybody know. If you have any trouble call
customer support at Authorize.net at: 18774473938 There is also a live chat if you want to use that!
6) TOOLS
Suggested Email to send to your warm market
The following attachment below can be cut
and pasted in to an email and has worked really well. You will also see
other email suggestions sent to you daily and in your back office. But here
is one you can use right now!
FREE VOICEMAIL
This company
has free voicemail and allows you to have more than 45 emails voicemails before
it starts to delete them if you dont clear them yourself. It also gives you 30
days to be inactive before they cancel your voicemail. If you do any advertizing
with your number in it or want to record a message for people that has your
website, you can use this voicemail without publishing your personal number all
over the net. Its easy to set up and convenient for marketing. You need to call
it and leave a message at least once in a a 30 day period, if you are not using
it, or it will cancel.

7) How the comp plan
works:
You pass up the
2nd, 4th, 6th and then every 5th person after that. This is the $25 level comp
plan. The $100 level is based on the number of upgrade that occurs. You pass up
the 2nd, 4th, 6th and every 5th $100 upgrade. This is not based on the number
person but the by the sale of that product.
Think of each level as a
separate sale. You don't passup the person, you passup the sale from that
specific product, whether it's the $25, $100 (The only two monthly
subscriptions), $500 (one time purchase) or any of the other products you own.
You pass up your 2, 4, 6, 11
...etc...sale....
If you purchased The Costa
Rica Intensive training for $500(one time purchase) you are able to resell it.
The first person to purchase that $500would pay YOU. The 2nd purchase of that
program would be a passup, the 3rd would go to you and the 4th would be a passup
and so forth, per the 2,4,6 and every 5th comp plan scenario. complan

9) What
do I blog about?
Blogging is a
nebulous idea for most people. But all you need to blog about is your life, your
experience in this business, your dog, your views on life, etc. The more
important thing is that on your blog that is set up by Empower Network, you have
your banner for your business there. The most important thing is to blog on a
regular basis. A minimum of 5 times a week. You can cut and paste and blog just
about anything. The more you blog the more people will hit your blog and then
click on your banner and join and be placed in your organization. That's all
there is to it!
To educate
yourself on how to be a great blogger go to this site and read about the
content. Don't worry about SEO and other things like that. You can also google
other sites on how to successfully blog but this is a good place to get some
great ideas:

10) UPGRADE FAST!!!
If you are not at
the $100 level then upgrade as quickly as you can or you will be passing $100 to
your upline. Purchase the $500 Costa Rica Intensive as soon as you can as well
to be able to sell that as well.Talk to your inviter when you are ready to
upgrade!
