your personal purchases and those of your
affiliates. |

|
Q5. |
When do I get paid? |
|
A5. |
Monthly commission checks for 5% of referred
affiliate purchases are mailed with your monthly

month. The year-end 2% cash back bonus
is paid the 3rd week of January for the prior
year. |

|
|
Q6. |
What purchases qualify for the 5% referral
commission and 2% year end cash back bonus? |
|
A6. |
Only purchases made directly
through the Golf Rewards Network™
qualify for commissions and year end cash back
bonus. Members must login and purchase
directly through the
www.golfrewardsnetwork.com website.
Any sales outside the network do not qualify (eg.
purchasing additional products/ services on
site). Due to the low margins in the
travel industry, travel purchases qualify for
the 2% year end cash back bonus and a 2%
affiliate commission. |

How much can I
save? |

Q8. |
Your savings is directly proportional to how
much you are currently spending on golf-related
expenditures. Products and services range
anywhere from 10% off to FREE! To learn how small business owners save
thousands of dollars a year through the tax
advantages of owning your own business, consult
with a local tax accountant. |

What is the
minimal commitment if I join? |
|

We are so confident that you will enjoy the
member benefits and the savings you receive
through the cash back bonus, affiliate
commissions, and tax advantages that there is no
minimal commitment. You may discontinue at
any time. |

|
Q10. |
How is my website
set up? |
|
A10. |
Once you join, we design a unique web page with
your personalized information and work with you
to determine a personal URL. Visit
www.JQgolf.com
for a sample affiliate website. Referring
friends and potential affiliates is easy and you
also receive a personalized matching email (eg.
jim@jqgolf.com) to use for your business
purposes. |
| |
|
|
Q11. |
Is this MLM or a
pyramid scheme? |
|
A11. |
No. MLM companies have complicated
multi-level compensation payout structures and
pyramid schemes only involve the transaction of
money (no products or services). GRN is
modeled after a "Buyers Club" concept like a
food Co-op or Sam's Club. GRN
offers the opportunity for golfers to join an
Affiliate program where simple commissions are
paid on those that are directly referred and commissions
are always paid on product or services sold, not
for recruiting new affiliates. Our
affiliate program is similar to those offered by
major companies like Amazon.com. Most MLM
companies sell off-brand items at expensive
prices. GRN deals only with quality, name
brands and fulfills product and travel services
through strategic partnerships with
well-established companies at prices competitive
or better than what is available to the general
public. |
| |
|
|
Q12. |
How do I find out
about more about the tax advantages of owning my
own business? |
|
A12. |
Consult with a local accountant who can also
help you with all the details of formally
establishing your business entity. |
| |
|
|
Q13. |
How do I get items
to help me promote my business? |
|
A14. |
Upon joining, you will be able to purchase
business cards and GRN logo'd merchandise
including shirts, golf bag, and other novelty
items that have proven to be effective in
helping spread the word. GRN also offers
regular seminars that give affiliates business
building ideas and support. |
|
|
|
|
Q14. |
Do I have to purchase any items? |
|
A14. |
Outside the $19.95 monthly fee for
your personalized website and customized email, you
have no mandatory purchase requirements. |
