Are there any growth opportunities for Sales Representative?
Can they be promoted?
In a relatively new company
like ours, with the affiliation we have with such companies
as McDonald's

will be made up of the persons that helped us grow. So the answer
is yes.

Can I be the first Sales
Representative
of the Link Five Federation, in my area?
We can not guarantee that you will be
the first Sales Representative in your area,

Do Sales Representative have to work at a McDonalds restaurant
or at their Affiliate?
Sales Representatives,
turn in orders and get paid in a affilaite that is assigned
to them. But they basically work from their homes or visiting
the customers that allow them to get the great compensation.
The Sales
& Operations Managers themselves work form
an office they share near their affiliates.
•
Do Sales
& Operations Managers
hire and interview their own team of sales people?
Sales
& Operations Managers
have the final decision on the make up of their sales team and
we let them interview and hire them, although we help with the
recruiting, it is important for our system that the Sales
& Operations Managers
are regarded as the boss and they can hire and fire the employees
as necessary.

For the Independent Sales Representatives I'm going to supervise,
are you only looking for people who have performed advertising
sales in the past or are you also looking for people that feel
confident that they can do it, however with proper training?
Experience in advertising sales is always
beneficial, but more important is that a candidate feel confident
in being able to contact and deal with Local, Regional and even
National Accounts; and that they have experience in selling
intangibles such as is advertising. We'll offer full training,
when it has to do with the product knowledge and full support
to achieve the most success for the Sales Rep. and the Company.
However we expect the candidates for the position to be professional
sales people and that they do not require training in the art
of procuring customers or selling.
•
How are schools tied into this program/promotion?
The schools are the main reason that McDonald's
Restaurants are affiliated with us and that the educational
benefits of playing the "Link Five" the game
in the competitions and full
color flyers,
are an additional value that it has, other than that it's a
great form of entertainment. However The
School program allows Sales Representatives to
sell
advertising that will appear in the Magazines
to be distributed to the parents of the students of the schools.
•
How is "Link five" the game played, what is it
about?
Everything
about the game can be found in this our site. Click here.. "Link
Five" the Game.
•
How is this being promoted to bring the awareness and let
the public know of Link Five? Is McDonald's including this in
their advertising campaigns? Or is your company promoting this
through other media besides the Internet?
The McDonald's
Restaurants in themselves
are a great form of promotion as each restaurant introduces
us to about 10,000 individuals per month, in addition of the
promotion in The
School program
and other affiliates
around the McDonald's restaurant that are part
of our operations when you look at the big picture. But we have
a linkage into Television,
Radio, Internet and the printed
media to help with the promotion as part of the corporate plans.
•
How long has the company been in business? And is this promotion
or arrangement exclusive to McDonalds.
Our company has been in business since 1998. This is
not a promotion, it's a permanent affiliation that we have with
McDonald's
Restaurants
to create funds to help the local
schools. Affiliation to "Link Five" is
exclusive to McDonald's
Restaurants
with the fast food industry.
•
I found the site a little
confusing. It is my understanding that McDonald's only uses
any type of material that their headquarters approves and that
independent franchises must work according to their franchise
agreements with McDonald's. Based on the above, how can the
business succeed?
We have the approval of the McDonald's
headquarter and all our documents, including the contracts that
franchise owners sign, are approved by the legal department
of McDonald's. Remember we have been running
and testing what we do with McDonald's
Restaurants
for over three years,
•
I read all pages and printed some of them; I saw the McDonald's
flyer it looks nice I am going next Monday evening to the Coral
Way McDonald's to understand more about the League.
We are close to re-starting the distribution
of the flyers and the operations of the weekly competitions
of "Link FiveÓ in the evening; but remember
that the reason we are contacting you, is that we must complete
the organization of the Federation personnel to have the operations
in each affiliated restaurant.
.•
Is there going to be a "Pilot", to demonstrate
the "Link Five" Television Show to advertisers and television
stations?
There are many reasons to create a pilot
and not the least important is that we need the sponsors to
see it how thet will be advertised in the production of 500
episodes over the next two years or so. The pilot will be a
full episode for a half hour slot and part of the 500
show deal.
•
Is this position mostly administrative?
It involves administration, coordination
of contacts, supervising employees and direct sales and sales
support. The position requires being able to perform or delegate
management duties.
•
I'm a professional in Business Administration so I'm looking
for a professional position, is the Sales Representative position
directed for professional people? Does it require having experience
in different areas of the company like sales, marketing, human
resources, logistic, etc? Please, could you tell me if this
position is like that or not?
We don't know what a professional is other
than what a dictionary describes, that is:
| |
adj.
1. Performed by persons receiving pay.
2. Having or showing great skill; expert: a professional
repair job.
n.
1. A person following a profession, especially a learned
profession.
2. One who earns a living in a given or implied occupation.
3. A skilled practitioner; an expert. |
| |
And
that is what any company is looking for in their associates. The
answer is all yes to all those areas. That is why eventually
they will be making over $50,000 and even
$100,000 per year.
•
The position would be part-time while in training and demonstration
of what I can do takes place, but what hours am I expected to
work.

show is on the air, is very limited, we would be flexible on
the time you actually devote to the project, but are expecting
a few hours per week. You will control your own hours.
•
What is the age group you'll be shooting for with the Television
show?
In the adult version of "War
of Passions", will combine shows with different ages.
However the demographics that we are targeting, include a broader
age group than that of the contestants, this is because the
difficulty of the questions vary in every type of show.
•
What compensation can be expected for the Sales Representative?
Income should be between $35,000
to $50,000
per year or
even up to $100,000 per year. Depending on
your performance, talents, efforts qualifications and demonstrations
of abilities.
•
What happens if in any territory the prices that appear on
this Site have to change?
We
understand that prices charged for advertising and even the
games, may have to be changed do to the difference in the economy
in the different territories around the world. With your knowledge

•

•
Where do you get your sponsors? Is there a lead source or
is this just strictly targeting specific categories of business
in a designated geographic area and soliciting advertising?
Sponsors are found trough company
promotions, referrals from existing customers and all the other
forms of canvassing for customers that is used by professional
sales persons. We do not target by categories as much as by
geographical areas. Independent Sales representatives
look for and contract with new Sponsors/Advertisers.
•

do you require sales people and Managers to work from headquarters
or can they work from their home-based offices?
Our headquarter is presently located at
17150 Northbay Road, Suite 2819, North Miami Beach, Florida
33160. But we are organizing a company that can not be run
from a centralized location, actually the opposite and we use
the individual McDonald's restaurants with whom we are
affiliated and small offices located near to them as the places
where training and meetings take place.
•
Will this position be a full-time, part-time, independent
contractor?
All of the above at different times. The
successful applicants can start by working (Part
Time) from home while in training and before the

a great television show is produced, such as a good director
