As is well-chronicled on this site, the founders of Three Stars Inc. started the company from their home for an investment of $1600. In order to turn a $1600 investment into a multi-million dollar, multi-national company they needed a plan, more than a small amount of luck, help from people in the industry, and great timing as well as the usual hard work and determination that every business requires to be successful.
Often Three Stars has felt like a pioneer forging a trail where there was not one previously (otherwise known as being innovative, but the trail image makes the founders seem more adventurous and brave).
The rough and tumble (and brave) pioneers at Three Stars do not want their trail to go to waste. We would like to offer others the opportunity to travel this same trail and reap some of the success that has been achieved by Three Stars by utilizing their now proven model.
To assist individuals who may not have the $1600 (or are not foolish to risk it on a trail that has only been walked once before), Three Stars is willing to make 100% of the investment for selected individuals. This includes the following:
- Legally incorporating the company
- Setting up bank accounts and legal tax ID number
- Buying the first 90 days of advertising
- Setting up phones and offices (virtual office)
- Purchasing a domain as well as hosting and building their Web site
- Providing a proven training and mentoring program
Why would Three Stars do all this for nothing? That’s probably what you’re asking yourself, and if you’re not, you probably should be. The answer is simple: to make money. Three Stars wants to build long term partnerships with successful independent media buyers.
So here’s the catch:
TSM will set up the company as a 50 – 50 partnership between you and Three Stars. After 90 days (during which 100% of the cost will be incurred by Three Stars) you may decide you don’t want to continue, and Three Stars will purchase your 50% for $1. All accounts and company names will revert to Three Stars, and it will be as if you never existed with the company.
Or you may choose after the 90 days to buy out Three Stars 50% share. If you choose this option, you now own 100% of the company and may operate it as you see fit. The only catch (yes that word again) is you must give Three Stars the first option at purchasing all leads generated by you at a pre-set amount. You may only sell to other media companies with the express written consent of Three Stars.
So this situation becomes a win-win. You own a company with zero (and yes we mean zero) investment. And Three Stars created an independent lead source with a trained and motivated partner.
