Business opportunity

Sometime in May my friend, Wulan bbm me in the middle of the night offering me a business opportunity. Being the opportunist that I am I couldn't resist but to follow through. Although she wouldn't give me any hint about the business until our meeting the next day. But being the positive person that I am, I was thinking what the hell, I might learn something new or better, might get something to improve www.urbanesia.com!

When we met the next day, it turns out she was trying to recruit me to join Faithnet Global which is the support company for Winalite International in Indonesia. Winalite is the company that produces lovemoon, a pricey feminine pads with anion strip that gives out free ion. Its famous pitch is the ion reduces the development of cyst or cervical cancer. I have been offered to market the product 3 times, first time in 2007. Although I never join, I was interested with the product because of several things:
1. I'm scared of cancer, and I think my lifestyle is not exactly cancer preventing
2. It's an eco-friendly product
3. It might reduce this crazy period cramp I get every month
4. The amount of money we can get from selling the product (or actually recruiting members, yes it has an MLM structure)
But I never join them because of money (the product itself is expensive and startup cost is quite a lot for an MLM) and bad timing, like I thought I would never got the time, I was going away on holiday, or I just simple forgot about it..

But Wulan got me to join in less than 24 hours! How?? This is what I would like to share... I'll continue on the next entry! Gotta get ready for work now!
