You know the formal label for this type of business is called "multi-layer marketing"... which I believe was mentioned in the previous page. The older name was "pyramid scheme". Essentially, a company deviates a great idea to convince people of their business being legit and paying as well... which they essentially look for people with high social engineering skills... or people who are easily convinced of things. They then go out and do the rest of the work for them and branch off... start off with 10, each branch 10 more into 110, the 100 branch 10 more, etc... and they all pay $85 and get convinced that this is something awesome and legit because their peers said so. If you multipy the money by how many clients the original host or business owner(s) has now under his pyramid, you'll see how hard he's banking.

I don't think Jay was really trying to make fun of your car... but getting across the point that you're a lemming ignorant to what a real sponsorship is and pyramid schemes.


BTW, I'm not "hate'n" on you... just spreading knowledge from my marketing degree. Hope things work out for ya.
