So I have a large scratch on my car door…
These people will come up to me at the gas station or get my attention when I’m at a red light and ask me if I want them to repair it. It’s happened to me close to 10 times in the past few months. And they seem to be all sorts of people, some drive crappy beat-up trucks, and some drive fairly new, nice SUV’s.
What’s the deal with this? Are they all affiliated or could it really be that there are just tons of people out there randomly doing the same thing?
The reason I ask is because it happens so often and each one has the same pitch — also, I can’t find anything online about this. There has to be something online about it!! Is it some sort of scam? It always reminds me of the people who try to sell you crappy stereos “for a fraction of the cost since their manager needs them to get rid of it”.

On Thursdays I have rehearsals for a play I’m going to be in, (not affiliated with the school at all.) and induction is on a Thursday. So, will my acceptance to NJHS be voided if I have to go to rehearsal? There really probably isn’t a way out. I can ask, though I’d rather practice the play then sit there in a dress and pretend to be fascinated.

I have a great deal of knowledge on holistic healing, and know of some of the topic supplement companies in the industry who have a lot of integrity and provide excellent health benefits and improvements. I want to affiliate myself with several of them, and direct traffic toward my propsed site to begin gnerating income to live with.
The friend who offered to make the site is an IT computer programmer. He deals with top clients in New York and seems to really know what he is doing on the Net. He has a degree in it.
He has asked me to write 50 pages of material educating people on health. I love to communicate, so it will be fun to do and get all my thoughts out there to help people better manage all their illnesses. After I do this, we will look at adding various companies to the stie to direct people to high quality products.
He knows how to deal with the legal end of things, like disclaimers etc….if anyone tries to sue us for anything. He is going to send me a contract for us to work together.
WHat I was wondering about is a scenario where once he has everything up and running, if Im doing all the work after that, trying to direct people to the site, offering them technical support by answering their questions etc…..is it fair that he gets 50 % of all the income that comes in ?
I have never signed a contract like this. I don’t want to be greedy or ungreatful, yet I dont want to be taken advantage of either. Is it normal that once someone sets up a site for someone, and the other person is doing all the work to deal with the clients, that the computer guy who set it up gets 50 % of all the profits ?
Any suggestions in what things I should look for or what things I should ask for in such an agreement, and if 50 % is a good deal since i dont know anything about how to manage a site ?
