BEST South African Business Opportunities Review

This site features an overview of the most affordable yet powerful income generating South African Business Opportunities. Each opportunity is rated according to it's overall potential and has been selected for review on the basis of capability to earn in excess of R25,000pm for practitioners with an initial outlay of under R1,000.

OVERVIEW: 

Based on the blending of traditional Co-operative and contemporary networking business models, this is indeed the 'Business of the 21St century!' Each S.A.C.C. member owns a share in the Co-Op system Which is used for the purchase of items such as cars, bank loans, insurance etc where members save considerable sums of money. All commissions are paid into a central account and distributed to members annually. All monthly purchases: Such as food, groceries, clothing, air time, fuel etc, are done using a unique card based on a credit card platform. The formulation of this particular system is such that no credit checks are carried out.

EARNINGS:

# Annually from from profit share.  #  Weekly introducers bonus of R150 to R550 per new member registration.     # Monthly for five generations from credit card use. # There is an additional points system on the credit card personal spend that can be exchanged for really nice products, such as flat screen tv's etc.

EARNING Potential:

This can quite easily be as much as R100,000 per month or much more. There is no restriction on recruiting thus no cap on earnings. Additionally the Recruitment bonus system also operates over a five level network with an extra bonus for every new member enrolled within a particular network. On a '10 X 5' network the bonuses alone equate to R1,000,000 plus, once off. Although I have calculated a potential monthly income on this same model bases on a R15 per month commission per network card user I have not published it as it is not believable. (Calculate it yourself if you wish) Clearly, the S.A.C.C. system has the sort of potential for income generation that is usually only seen in expensive franchise opportunities.

COST:

There are several levels at which one can become a member and earner in S.A.C.C.

#  BASIC MEMBER: The cost of this level of membership is almost startlingly low at only R295 once off! However, in our assessment joining at this level is not what a serious net worker should contemplate as many of the important facilities are excluded. This level is more of use as a Staff benefit or used as a loyalty incentive by retailers etc. Of course if your budget is really tight it is at the very least a starting point. Personally I would rather save or even borrow in order to take full advantage of the benefits and huge earning potential.

#  EXECUTIVE MEMBER: This is still bargain basement at only R499. The benefits provided are truly impressive and I would have expected to invest at least R2,500 or more. Some other opportunities we have assessed have a much bigger initial cost and usually involve 'forced' monthly purchases too, yet do not have the income potential that the SA.C.C. opportunity offers.

#  PLATINUM MEMBER: At R599 this option is probably the one most serious net-workers should consider as it provides some worthwhile extra benefits. Most importantly, Platinum members also receive a copy of the excellent Presentation DVD.

#  BUSINESS MEMBER: If you have a really good product or service and you are willing to seriously discount it or give cash back etc exclusively for S.A.C.C. members this option is the way to go! At a cost of only R1,750 you couldn't go far wrong, and this membership includes the income facility of the other packages.

CREDIBILITY:

The credibility of S.A.C.C. is probably the highest we have experienced. With major banks and institutions involved, as well as the majority of the top retailers in South Africa participating it is clear that there is something good happening here! The Directors - or Advisory council' as S.A.C.C. calls them, are a spread of experience ranging from MLM to very senior banking officials.

HEAD OFFICE BACK UP:

This is among the very top. S.A.C.C. provides everything from a business handbook to a very comprehensive internet based system. Every member, even basic members, get a handbook and application forms that make it easy to present the business opportunity to prospects.  All other member categories have password protected access to an 'Exclusive Members area' where they can access all sorts of things. An E commerce system is also available allowing members to enroll new people instantly on line. I am pretty certain that this is one of the very few businesses anywhere where a member can contact the CEO on his personal e mail, or even on his cell phone! Overall this is without doubt THE most comprehensive system that one could hope for. There is an absolute glut of information available to members. I must point out once again that Basic members do not have access to all of these facilities.

OTHER ITEMS WORTH COMMENTING ON:

This really is worthy of comment. There is an entire portfolio of free things that S.A.C.C. offers their members. these are notable items that could save anyone considerable sums of money! Most notable is that the Credit card discussed in this assessment is given to members for free, and with the 'plastic' cost and issue fee all paid for by S.A.C.C. Also free is full membership of Flexibreaks which will save you as much as 50% on hotels and holidays etc. (I checked their website at http://www.flexibreaks.co.za/about.cfm) and found that membership fees are R499 a year. The same as S.A.C.C.'s once off Executive lifetime membership! There are also many other items like free websites and free hosting, auto responders, accounting systems, legal documents and the list goes on and on.These items could quite possibly save an entrepreneur or a business as much as R100,000 or more. there are also additional income systems they offer to members and all sorts of other stuff that would probably take several pages to quantify. I must also comment on the fact that practitioners earn from the very first member they enroll. There are absolutely no so called 'qualification barrier' obstacles to hinder your earnings.(I consider these 'qualification barriers' to be unfair to say the least!) I have to say that i have NEVER seen anything like this in all my years of business assessment.

Whilst investigating their website I came across their 'Employee benefits plan'. All i can surmise is that there are some great minds behind this business.I predict that if these people get the right marketing people involved they could well be the greatest thing to be launched in South Africa since Coca Cola.

CONCLUSION:

Very highly recommended! This is a stand alone turnkey opportunity that provides everything you will ever need. I am not sure that you could do any better investing R1,000,000 or more into a franchise, particularly as with this business opportunity there are no actual overheads like premises and staff etc. This business could see you financially independent and able to do what is important to you. It also incorporates the 'Three Success Factors' - Networking - Help others to succeed - and provide a product that generates perpetual income once sold.In addition they intend to open U.S. Consumer Club sometime in 2012 with S.A. members spearheading it. Everything about this opportunity is engineered to create earnings!

CONTACT DETAILS:

You can access their 'public' site by Googling S.A. CONSUMER CO-OP. I have also placed a direct link below where you can access it from this page. They have a 'Contact Us' facility on their website too where you can actually speak to a living person.

 OVERVIEW:

LegalSure is a legal aid based business opportunity that is based on a solid MLM business model A genuine budget legal aid that provides very comprehensive legal protection as well as access to some other legal facilities. The benefits include: Telephonic advice and consultations - Face to face consultations - Review of legal documents - Letters & phone calls on your behalf - Drafting of wills - Reversal of black listing - Small Claims court assistance - Maintenance matters - Civil matters by or against you - Criminal matters - Bail applications - Labor matters etc. Cover of up to  R70,000 per annum.

EARNINGS: 

Monthly commission from premiums paid by people you have enrolled over four levels as follows: Level 1: R5 - Level 2 R7 - Level 3 R9 - Level 4 R3. In addition a sign up bonus of R50 is paid for every new member you enroll. There is also a points earning system that is converted to cash on a monthly basis, based upon your overall network size.

EARNING POTENTIAL:

This is R39,750 based on a '10 x 5' network, excluding once off bonus payments which are difficult to calculate on this model. Certainly a very worthwhile income can be generated for a practitioner. If one was to concentrate on going wide on level one a quite substantial passive income would be the eventual end result. This particular opportunity has universal appeal as most people need a lawyers assistance at some point in their lives. Of course it is also notable that with a contribution of only R68 per month it will not be long before the practitioner is earning sufficient to be getting their own legal aid protection for free.

COST:

This is in the "Anybody can afford it' category. The Joining Fee is R80, which is deducted in the first payment along with the monthly contribution of R68. Thus for a total of only R148 you have a turnkey business. There are no other cost's over and above your monthly contributions.

CREDIBILITY:

The LegalSure legal aid system is underwritten by Guardsure Insurance Co Pty Ltd.

HEAD OFFICE BACK UP:

They can readily be contacted telephonically and by e mail.

OTHER ITEMS WORTH COMMENTING ON:

Other incentives are offered to members from time to time. These include such luxuries as a Sea cruise. There are also no 'qualification barriers' to hinder your earnings, you will earn a commission for every paid up member in your network.There are however a number of 'Hidden' items which are not disclosed on their website to prospective members.This includes a requirement to obtain a specific amount of points within 37 days of joining to qualify for a new starters bonus, and a sales pitch to buy their sales kit. (Totally unnecessary in my opinion!) There is yet another sales pitch for new members to sign an additional debit order for R150 per month and the company will build your down lines for you. But get this!! YOU must provide the leads and they will dock R30 of your R50 sign up bonus. Lastly, when completing the application form, if you select that you are interested in the business opportunity a little pop up advises that you will be debited yet another R25 per month so that you can go to their meetings etc. These items spoiled an otherwise very good home business opportunity, but you don't have to accept them if you join. .LegalSure accepts foreign workers in South Africa who have a valid work permit!

CONCLUSION:

Recommended! But due to the factors detailed in OTHER ITEMS . . .I can only award three stars as there is a very definite trend to milking the proverbial cow in this instance.  This opportunity has the potential to put money in your bank account. I do think that this is a R20,000 pm potential opportunity and will certainly provide an essential service to all communities in South Africa.

 OVERVIEW:

This business combines a Funeral Assurance policy with a four level MLM system. The appeal of this is that everybody should own a funeral policy, and with this system your policy cane not only become free, it can make a healthy extra income too. In addition, practitioners of FuniSure can also sell LegalSure and Vice versa. Benefits are basic old fashioned cash of up to R18,000 paid to your family when you die - and you will die for sure! - plus a R2000 food voucher to keep food on the table during those very painful and difficult days.

This is in the "Anybody can afford it' category. The Joining Fee is R80, which is deducted in the first payment along with the monthly contribution of R30 upwards.

OVERVIEW:

This business opportunity is what is commonly defined as a 'Paid to Click' system. In basic terms, members of the business opportunity get paid to read advertisements and visit web sites etc. Whilst it is possible to do no more than earn just a couple of rand working by yourself, income can be taken to a new level when enrolling other members to also read ads etc. For this you get paid an introducers commission, as well as a percentage of their 'clicks'. Anyone can star for free and upgrade later if they want to get into a higher earning bracket through entry to the MLM Matrix on site. This business is USA based, but is 100% accessible and user friendly to South Africans. The advantages of this are that you can enroll members from all around the world and you are paid in US$.

EARNINGS:

These are quite tiny at first glance: R3.5cents to read an ad, and R1.40 sign up commission. But once one enrolls a few people your income becomes a few rand a day. I have noted that some members have enrolled several hundred members and generated a worthwhile income from doing so. Then there is the eight level matrix MLM that can change the entire personality of the business.

EARNING POTENTIAL:

As mentioned this starts out as very little at first. As you enroll others it can certainly become worthwhile. the main factor to consider here is that all it takes is about ten minutes a day to read the various ads on the site. Thus if you had one hundred  members all reading daily it will still only takes a time investment of ten minutes a day.  However, making use of the optional upgrade to 'Premium' member brings with it access to the eight level MLM system. This operates on the principle where you are paid R7 on all your level one sign ups and R3.50 down through a total of eight levels. On a '5 X 8' structure this roughly equates to R3,000,000. as a bonus you continue to earn from your level one PTC. To achieve this would take more effort than with the other business opportunities on this site. It must also be considered that most South Africans probably would not view this as a 'proper' business thus you would need to enroll people in USA, Canada, Philippine etc.

COST:

To join and earn as a 'PTC' member only is totally free. And it is worth joining because the income possibilities are sound. It should be quite easy to enroll others for free too, and the resultant income is worth your few minutes effort a day. To upgrade and access the MLM cost's R100 or so a year. This has to be paid with a credit card due to the offshore location of ClixSense, and this can pose a problem to the majority of South Africans. I am reliably informed that the South African Consumer Co-Operative credit card can be used online and overseas, thus their members gain access to a number of opportunities that many others may not have the opportunity to utilize.

CREDABILITY:

ClixSense have been n operation since 2007 and they are graded as a 'Premiere' site by PTC Investigations.

HEAD OFFICE BACK UP:

Their admin team respond timeously to all inquiries or requests for advice or assistance. Due to ClixSense being offshore communications are of necessity by e mail.

OTHER ITEMS WORTH COMMENTING ON:

All the information available about ClixSense literally shouts INTEGRITY!.

CONCLUSION:

Recommended. However, don't expect to make money quickly with ClixSense. it is an excellent 'Coffee money' business to start with, and is a great training ground too. Work at it and in time it will prosper you. You will need an Internet money transfer system in order to get paid. e have provided access to the best of them all - AlertPay - just under this article.
