What Is Our Co-Op Association of YTB Independent Business Owners?
The Global Expansion Team (Team G.E.T.) has formed a co-op association of YTB Independent Business Owners (hereafter called IBOs), who have come together to provide a mutually supportive environment for each other.
The Global Expansion Team’s co-op association helps new YTB IBOs achieve control over their new business, but with the support of a team of people who are facing the same challenges and want to pool their enthusiasm and expertise. Together…we help to overcome one of the most discouraging features of a new business owner – isolation.
Team G.E.T. lowers the bar for becoming a successful YTB Business Owner, and opens up new horizons for people who have ambition but who lack the skills or confidence needed to set off entirely on their own – or who simply want to carry on an independent economic activity but within a supportive group context. We provide new YTB business owners with an easy transition from inactivity to self-employment and financial freedom.
Our co-op association is united based on the values of "self-help, self-responsibility, solidarity, democracy and equality" and the co-operative principles of “voluntary and open membership; democratic member control; member economic participation; autonomy and independence; education and training; co-operation among co-operatives; and social concern for community”.
We believe in the ethical values of honesty, openness, social responsibility and caring for others.
Membership: Our team is an informal Co-Op association of YTB IBOs. Membership is open to any active YTB IBO.
A supply chain is a system of activities involved in moving a product or service from supplier to customer. YTB’s E-Commerce Business Center puts Team G.E.T. directly in the supply chain of hundreds of multi-million dollar, multi-national corporations.
Benefits:
- Opportunity to conduct global business on the world-wide web
- Explosive trends in online retail, baby boomer habits, home-based business, and social media
- Commonality of YTB/ZamZuu products and services—same online shopping…same buying habits
- Unrestricted access to vendors and industries on the internet to buy and make/save money
- High “Use Value” of YTB’s internet solution far exceeds the “Cash Value.”
- High commissions available to YTB Business Owners – the power to leverage Free Agents and multiple streams of incomeCEO-like compensation plan—performance based with no upper income limits
- Company-paid health and insurance benefits for top performers—guaranteed issue
The Global Expansion Team Co-Op Association
Purpose: Provide a supportive business environment for YTB IBOs to build a global distribution network of YTB E-Commerce Business Centers. The co-op association pools talents & skills to achieve personal and team goals. The more YTB E-Commerce Business Center’s we sell…the larger the global distribution network becomes, and consequently our Merchants are able to sell more goods and services to our network of Affiliates. They Love Us! The co-op association is uniquely postured to secure a vital position in the electronic supply-distribution chain of a trillion dollar 3rd Party (3PL) Distribution industry!
