1. Why did you choose to make HUB a network marketing or multimarketing (MLM) company?
We looked at many business models and the MLM structure was the absolute best at allowing us to create the maximum impact for our members and the world. It allows our members to actively connect with each other and earn a portion of the sales generated by the entire business. It also supports us in creating the level of transparency we want for all. We want you to be able to see the impact you are making in your own life and in our world.
Because we’ve designed our company to be an economic engine fueling humanitarian aid, the MLM structure allows us to create a sustainable giving cycle. More specifically, the MLM structure delivers on the principle of universal flow (giving and receiving), which we believe is a core foundation of our mission: sustained abundance for all.
2. Why is MLM the best structure for creating exponential giving?
If you, as an individual, gave $99 per month to the charity of your choice, that $99 would be finite with no possible opportunity for it to increase in value. However, if you, as an active HUB member, invest $99 per month in your own personal development, HUB will donate and loan 40% of your monthly purchase into the humanitarian field. Then, as you attract three people to also purchase a $99 empowerment program, and each of them encouraged three more people (you, +3, +9), you would be responsible for helping create the gifting of $514.80 per month ($99 X 13 X 40%).
Giving to a traditional charity might mean that your $99 donation could help as many as 10-25 people. On the other hand, when you put your energies into HUB, you may have helped impact a total of up to 416 people with that same $99. Here’s what your monthly membership fee can generate if you inspire others:
- you have helped feed up to 39 people
- you have helped educate up to 39 people
- you have helped provide clean water for up to 130 people, and
- you have helped provide environmental sustainability training for up to 208 people …all without a lot of extra effort!
3. How does the MLM model create sustainable giving?
Most non-profits are under-funded and limited to their next big donation for giving and, therefore, many do not survive. HUB is not reliant on fundraising and the next big donation to succeed because commissions are consistently flowing back to you, our community. You…we…are HUB and together we will receive money that allows us to continue our membership, and therefore our giving.
4. How do your Members create personal abundance for themselves and their families?
As you continue to share HUB with people who purchase our empowerment programs and create exponential giving, you will receive commissions from the purchases of personal development training by those in your impact team. This means you will be giving globally and will want to continue to help drive HUB’s economic engine. This creates a natural flow that we call sustainable global giving. It is a wonderful circle of giving and receiving that has no end.
5. What does your vision of efficiency and transparency mean?
You’ll always be confident that your giving is efficiently going toward an important cause and you will be able to track online exactly how much giving you are personally responsible for. We post our impact partners (recipients of aid) on our website and update the list regularly. HUB unites existing organizations that are already working to make a difference in the world. We choose partners, like Feed The Children, that we know have the ability to deliver effectively and efficiently.
6. Is there one type of Membership in HUB or do I have more choices?
Become an AMBASSADOR:
You become a member and actively work to build the organization and create more monetary flow for you, HUB’s giving, and the world at large, or…
Become a HUB RETAIL CUSTOMER:
You become a HUB Retail Customer and gain access to the HUB community, without enrolling as a Member and without working the MLM business side
7. Is HUB different from traditional MLMs?
Yes - you may find that it’s more fulfilling than traditional MLMs.
- The nature of HUB is to enroll people in monthly empowerment training which, in turn, triggers monthly giving. Once someone is enrolled, your only job will be to encourage them to share HUB with others. There is no need to convince them, or re-sell them product after the first enrollment.
- If you choose to share HUB products or products from other HUB members, you will be sharing products specifically designed to contribute and make a positive change in the world. We do not sell products built solely for profit. Instead, we create and sell products and programs that make an impact on the person purchasing them as well as the world.
8. Can you explain HUB’s vision that moves humanity from survival to self-empowerment and into sustained abundance?
We are the new model for sustainable business and humanitarian giving.
In our business, we are committed to providing the best empowerment training available to our members, and a business model (MLM) that has the ability to create ongoing financial flow and abundance.
HUB’s humanitarian aid is delivered in the form of “The Total Package” – which includes food, water, education, and micro-loans. This is in an effort to create sustained abundance for our recipients so they break the chains of poverty and become self sufficient and abundant. We do not believe in simply “giving the next bag of grain” because that means tomorrow, the recipient will need another bag of grain. This is inefficient giving. We believe in empowering our recipients with the training, tools, teams, and support so that they can permanently break through and break out of their current situation.
We know that together, we are creating a united force that is delivering the economic engine needed to once and for all break the chains of poverty and solve humanity’s most pressing needs.
9. Is HUB a charity?
No, HUB is not a charity. HUB is a for-profit company that is in the business of selling empowerment education. We (and you) make money by selling empowerment education through both a network marketing model and an affiliate marketing model. HUB then uses a large portion of our revenues to fund ongoing humanitarian impact. For example, HUB’s for-profit structure distributes 40% of our monthly membership revenues to humanitarian impact programs. There are not many companies around the world who donate this high of a percentage of revenue into the humanitarian field. It’s part of what makes HUB unique.
We believe in abundance for ourselves as well as the people we help. The ability for our company and our members to generate income is what we believe will magnify our impact and sustain us to do more good works over time.
10. Is HUB based on any one religious or political affiliation?
No. At HUB, we believe that what unites us is greater than what divides us. We believe that taking action for humanity goes beyond any one religious belief or political persuasion. HUB works with many religious affiliations and spiritual leaders from all beliefs including but not limited to field agents like Iris Ministries (supported by the evangelical and Pentecostal communities), Christian churches, Muslim-birthed educators, Agape International (trans-denominational), and many more. We believe humanitarian giving and the empowerment of people and communities is a common joy in the hearts of all.
