What Do Your Prospects Earn?

Knowing what most people earn on a means-average basis helps to determine how you present the business opportunity.  In other words, for someone earning $4-5,000 a month, an extra $1,000 is HUGE and will certainly get their attention.  Why use earnings figures that are completely unrealistic to someone earning $40-50,000 a year?  Use your common sense!  Dennis
