Does this sound unbelievable but true? Well it's unbelievable and certainly not true. FHTM is a business. Except for landing pages on the Internet and adds in the back of comic books, you don't usually hear or read about business people that get rich while sleeping, watching TV, surfing the 'net or going on vacation.
So why would a typical person purchase a business with FHTM? Fantastic question. First off, if you are not interested in working a business, go someplace else. That's right, we don't need you. FHTM is a business, not something to pass time. I have read and heard about a few different people that got into the FHTM business and became very upset when they found out it was impossible to earn a living or get rich with FHTM unless they actually worked hard at it.
So back to the basic question of why someone would want to get into the FHTM business. I look at it this way. If you want to purchase a McDonald's Franchise you must have at least $250,000 - $300,000 in none borrowed funds available. They will in turn help you with financing another $1 million to $1.5 in order to get your new business up and running. Maybe you don't have that kind of money, yet still want to be a small business owner. For less that $400 you can be set up and running your own FHTM business. Big difference!
Your typical person that starts a business like McDonald's is hoping to turn a profit within 5 years. With FHTM you can realistically be profitable in the first 30 days, if you work the business. Big difference!
FHTM has been around since 2001 but is what I consider a New MLM. This new MLM is a paradigm shift in the way that company's market themselves. Instead of only letting a franchise owner of a Verizon Wireless store or Dish Network store, have the only chance to earn commissions from sales, these company's and many more have teamed up with FHTM and for very little investment, the ordinary person can now earn commissions without purchasing a franchise or becoming an employee of a franchisee.
I was first introduced to FHTM by a friend that showed me a video presentation of the company. I would guess that unlike a lot of people, I have actually looked at a lot of business opportunities. Not all network marketing. My first impression of FHTM was that the concept is so simple an idiot could do it. Maybe not a very flattering thing to say, but who wants to be in a business that is so complicated that you need a legal team to explain it. The second thing that made me excited was that FHTM is just a marketing company, the products are nationally or internationally known and FHTM Reps. are not required to stock any of these products. The third thing that excited me was that FHTM is duplicate-able. Show someone a video, they will either "get it" or not, sign them up or move on.
After reviewing the FHTM video with my friend I was immediately interested and ended signing up to become a Manager with the company. In my next article in this series on FHTM I will explore what it takes and how one becomes successful with FHTM.

Post a CommentI also feel like this is not on the up and up. I read the lawsuit and I never saw any legal policy and procedures that FHTM is saying we all were trained on. I also have issues with them not having deals with the Fortune 500 companies they said they did.
What did you see that made your change your mind? Did you see or sign any arbitrtion agreements like they address in the lawsuit?
I started feeling like the FHTM company was a scam a couple months ago and got out before I ended up loosing more money.
Fortune Hi-Tech Marketing was hit with a 2nd class action lawsuit. This time it was filed in California and on December 22, 2010. Was it a Christmas present to the FHTM legal team?

Fortune Hi-Tech Marketing Hit with National Class Action
September 18, 2010. By Brenda Craig
Louisville, KY: A giant pyramid scheme that has been masquerading as a marketing company appears to be starting to crumble. The only fortune the company created went mostly to the companys father figure, Paul Orbison, and a short list of his confederates.
Fortune Hi-Tech Marketing Hit with National Class Action. Although Fortune Hi-Tech Marketing purports to sell everything from hair care products to cell phones, the real sales job was done on potential recruits to the organization.
The law against pyramid schemes is clear, says R. Kenyon Meyer, an attorney who works with the well-known firm of Dinsmore and Shohl in Louisville, Kentucky. Meyer represents four former Fortune sales representatives in a national class action alleging they were victims of Orbisons operation.
According to the suit, sales representatives were charged $299 for the privilege of joining the Fortune team. Then they
Whistleblower fights back after frivolous suit by FHTM for exposing their ILLEGAL Pyramid Scheme
Lexington, Kentucky - June 16, 2010 - In light of all of the recent investments scams including the infamous Bernie Maddoff, whistleblowers and those with morals fear that the frauds they expose will result in unjust lawsuits filed against them by the companies they complain about. One such situation was that of the lawsuit filed by Fortune Hi-Tech Marketing against Fortune Social LLC and Joseph Isaacs in May 2010.
Joseph Isaacs and Fortune Social, LLC (collectively Isaacs) deny each and every claim brought by Fortune Hi-Tech Marketing, Inc. (FHTM) in a filing made today with the American Arbitration Association, who is overseeing this case. In addition, Isaacs fights back and asserts his own counterclaim for relief against FHTM, Paul C. Orberson (individually and in his capacity as President of FHTM), Jeff Orberson (individually and in his capacity as Chief Operating Officer of FHTM), an
