Legal Plans: Important Piece of the A2J Solution

As has been described previously, our mission at LegalShield is to close the access to justice gap and technology plays a large role internally, externally, and with our partner vendors in achieving that vision. Recently, I had the pleasure of connecting with technology experts attending our upcoming Elevate 2019 conference. I asked each how they see legal plans as part of the future of the legal industry.

“Legal plans provide an opportunity for access to attorneys information that are generally not available. The access to justice (A2J) deficit in our country is indicative of the need for low-cost access points into the legal service market.” Jason Velez, CEO, 1Law

“Subscriptions have made their way into almost every part of our life e.g., food delivery, cell phones, internet, movie tickets, etc. and professional services are no different. It is almost expected business behavior. Additionally, the business model itself creates a more proactive relationship with your client.” Allen Rodriguez, Founder of ONE400

To Allen’s point, the shift is needed because the law cannot continue to offer the same services in the same format, as even ten years ago. In today’s market, clients are demanding affordability.

“Legal plans allow people access to the legal system who otherwise would be left in the cold. Hiring a lawyer is a scary and expensive proposition. These plans allow individuals to be matched with an appropriate lawyer at a cost effective rate.” Nalini Prasad, BlueShark Digital

“Traditional legal services by nature of their referrals and retainers have only been available to a small percentage of the population. These clients and relationships will not go away but growth in this area will be limited. Legal plans are bringing about a massive shift in how legal services are engaged and performed. Many clients who have never engaged with an attorney are becoming comfortable with their new power and access to legal services. The bulk of services they need are simpler and faster for firms to resolve. As legal plans proliferate, growth of simple, basic and even automated legal services will explode. This is only the beginning.” Stephen Zetzer, CEO, eWranglers, LLC

Legal plans are based on an affordable monthly fee which leads some people to question how such broad services can be provided at a low rate. As Stephen outlined above, the answer is technology plus the purchasing power of a large community, for example LegalShield has over 1.8 million members. The fixed monthly fee provides the certainty that the public demands in today’s market.

“Many consumers would gladly pay for the security of being able to get the legal assistance they needed for a monthly price. I think legal plans will help bridge a gap between those consumers who want guaranteed assistance for a regular fee.” Lori Gonzalez, President, RayNa Corporation

“Legal plans give consumers more confidence and power in the marketplace. Many consumers are intimidated by the process of selecting and working with an attorney. Big businesses and wealthy individuals expect and generally receive great service. Small businesses and consumers often feel too unimportant to get the attention and service they deserve. Legal plans give individuals and small businesses greater power. As part of a network they are more likely to receive a high level of service on every legal matter.” Alexander Verno, Friedman, Framme & Thrush, P.A.

A common misconception is that lawyers cannot make money providing services to a legal plan. Solos and firms can save marketing time and money by signing up to multiple plans and having a healthy influx of clients. And these plans are also not just for individuals.

“Legal plans are incredibly important, particularly for small businesses that have recurring legal questions and need a quick, but cost-effective, point in the right direction. Plans reduce costs for clients while also improving access to justice and are still a money maker for enterprising attorneys. Definitely an important part of the mix that catches the trend in which consumers want more for less, more quickly. And also lawyers are shifting up their practices to include a mix of flat rate, contingency fee and micro services that can combine to positively impact their brand and bottom line all in one.” Stephen Kane, former solo attorney, now CEO of FairClaims

The third annual Elevate 2019 will build upon the success of the two prior years’ events and provide networking, CLE hours, and exposure to technology and innovation, including the experts above, from June 20th to 22nd in Denver, CO. The event is open to all attorneys and if you wish to join our referral network at any time, the information is here. Our goal is to help you grow your practice with connections and education by including up to 10 hours of pre-approved CLE over three days. If you have any questions , please do not hesitate to reach out to me on Twitter @toddbarrs.

Espionage or incrimination? Risks from stolen Marriott data

New Post has been published on https://www.articletec.com/espionage-or-incrimination-risks-from-stolen-marriott-data/

Espionage or incrimination? Risks from stolen Marriott data

NEW YORK (AP) – Security experts alarmed by the scope of a data breach at the Marriott hotel empire worry that stolen information on specific hotel stays could be used for burglary, espionage or reputational attacks.

Hackers stole information on as many as 500 million guests of the Marriott hotel empire over four years, obtaining credit card and passport numbers and other personal data, including arrival and departure dates.

The crisis quickly emerged as one of the biggest data breaches on record. By comparison, last year’s Equifax hack affected more than 145 million people. A Target breach in 2013 affected more than 41 million payment card accounts and exposed contact information for more than 60 million customers.

Chris Wysopal, chief technology officer with the security firm Veracode, said the attack goes beyond traditional credit-card theft, as information about a person’s hotel stay “could be used to incriminate someone.”

Jesse Varsalone, professor of cybersecurity at the University of Maryland, said hackers’ access to the reservation system could be troubling if the hackers turn out to be, say, nation-state spies rather than those out simply for financial gain.

That information could mean knowing when and where government officials are traveling, such as to military bases or conferences, he said.

“There are just so many things you can extrapolate from people staying at hotels,” he said.

And because the data included reservations for future stays, along with home addresses, burglars could learn when someone wouldn’t be home, said Scott Grissom of LegalShield, a provider of legal services.

The affected hotel brands were operated by Starwood before it was acquired by Marriott in 2016. They include W Hotels, St. Regis, Sheraton, Westin, Element, Aloft, The Luxury Collection, Le Méridien and Four Points. Starwood-branded timeshare properties were also affected. None of the Marriott-branded chains were threatened.

Email notifications for those who may have been affected begin rolling out Friday.

The full scope of the failure was not immediately clear. Marriott was trying to determine if the records included duplicates, such as a single person staying multiple times.

Security analysts were especially alarmed to learn that the breach began in 2014. While such failures often span months, four years is extreme, said Yonatan Striem-Amit, chief technology officer of Cybereason.

It was unclear what hackers could do with the credit card information. Though it was stored in encrypted form, it was possible that hackers also obtained the two components needed to descramble the numbers, the company said.

For as many as two-thirds of those affected, the exposed data could include mailing addresses, phone numbers, email addresses and passport numbers. Also included might be dates of birth, gender, reservation dates, arrival and departure times and Starwood Preferred Guest account information.

The breach of personal information could put Marriott in violation of new European privacy laws, as guests included European travelers.

Marriott set up a website and call center for customers who believe they are at risk.

It isn’t common for passport numbers to be part of a hack, but it has happened before. Hong Kong-based airline Cathay Pacific said in October that 9.4 million passengers’ information had been breached, including passport numbers.

Passport numbers are often requested by hotels outside the U.S. because U.S. driver’s licenses are not accepted there as identification. The numbers could be added to full sets of data about a person that bad actors sell on the black market, leading to identity theft.

And while the credit card industry can cancel accounts and issue new cards within days, it is a much more difficult process, often steeped in government bureaucracy, to get a new passport.

But one redeeming factor about passports is that they are often required to be seen in person, said Ryan Wilk of NuData Security. “It’s a highly secure document with a lot of security features,” he said.

When the merger was first announced in 2015, Starwood had 21 million people in its loyalty program. The company manages more than 6,700 properties across the globe, most in North America.

While the first impulse for those potentially affected by the breach could be to check credit cards, security experts say other information in the database could be more damaging.

The names, addresses, passport numbers and other personal information “is of greater concern than the payment info, which was encrypted,” analyst Ted Rossman of CreditCards.com said, citing the risk that thieves could open fraudulent accounts.

An internal security tool signaled a potential breach in early September, but the company was unable to decrypt the information that would define what data had possibly been exposed until last week.

Marriott, based in Bethesda, Maryland, said in a regulatory filing that it was premature to estimate what financial impact the breach will have on the company. It noted that it does have cyber insurance, and is working with its insurance carriers to assess coverage.

Elected officials were quick to call for action.

The New York attorney general opened an investigation. Virginia Sen. Mark Warner, co-founder of the Senate Cybersecurity Caucus, said the U.S. needs laws that limit the data companies can collect on customers and ensure that companies account for security costs rather than making consumers “shoulder the burden and harms resulting from these lapses.”

Life Leadership: Chump change or real money? [Review]

Leadership training should position you for the best opportunities in life…

But there are always exceptions.

Like the five-figure debt a bachelor’s degree can give you—without making it easier to get a great job—some opportunities look better on paper than they do in real life.

This may be one of those “opportunities.”

Life Leadership is a network marketing company that offers training and mentoring on how to be personally, professionally, and financially successful.

Sounds pretty similar to the likes of World Ventures, but this company has done a few things different.

FAQ

1. What does Life Leadership sell? Life Leadership offers products in three categories—financial, professional, and personal development—each designed to help you improve your personal lifestyle. Their materials include audios, videos, and books, as well as interactive training to help people track their expenses, save money on spending, protect their identity, and more.

2. What are Life Leadership’s most popular products? Their most popular product is Financial Fitness, which is designed to help people struggling with debt and credit problems achieve debt freedom.

3. How much does it cost to join Life Leadership? To join, you’ll need to buy a business starter kit for $99.99.

4. Is Life Leadership a scam? No, Life Leadership is a legitimate company. Their training systems have been recognized by business owners, educators, authors, military leaders, and elected government officials. The creators of their training have been named on the Inc.com Top 50 Leadership and Management Experts list and featured in Networking Times, Success, and Success from Home magazines. The products themselves have also won multiple awards, including Gold ADDY Awards for Design, Living Now Book Awards, eLit Awards, Illumination Book Awards, Axiom Business Book Awards, and Reader’s Legacy Choice Awards. So sure, the business is legit. The real question is whether you’ll make any money at it, and the likelihood for that is pretty low. Keep reading to learn more.

5. What is Life Leadership’s BBB rating? A+

6. How long has Life Leadership been in business? Since 2001

7. What is Life Leadership’s revenue? $9 million as of 2015

8. How many Life Leadership distributors are there? We weren’t able to find any numbers online.

9. What lawsuits have been filed? From 2007 to 2010, Life Leadership (then known as TEAM) fought Quixtar (aka Amway) and lost all three cases. Why? Life Leadership’s founders were formerly top-level Amway distributors and wanted to be released from their no complete clauses. Amway wasn’t having it, and it wasn’t pretty. [1, 2] In 2015, Mark and Raquel Peters sued Life Leadership founders for misrepresenting the business opportunity and stripping them of their income. [3]

10. Comparable companies: ClickFunnels, Usborne Books

Product-wise, this company seems alright. But as far as an income opportunity goes, there are certainly better options out there.

Click here for my #1 recommendation

Either way, here’s the full review on Life Leadership.

Overview

Life Leadership was founded in November 2011 by seven entrepreneurs: Orrin Woodward, Chris Brady, Claude Hamilton, George Guzzardo, Bill Lewis, Dan Hawkins, and Tim Marks.

Life Leadership was started with the following mission:

“…to help people live The Life They’ve Always Wanted by providing world-class, life-changing products and services to our customers and an industry-leading compensation plan to our sales force in the field.”

Pretty vague. Can you tell what they’re selling yet? Probably not.

According to the website, the founders include:

A New York Times bestselling author

A Guinness World Record holder for largest book signing

Two of Inc. Magazine’s Top 50 Leadership and Management Experts

Modern Servant Leader’s Top Leadership Experts

Magazine’s Top 100 Speakers

Top 20 Most Followed Leadership Influencers on Twitter

HR’s Top 100 Blogs for Management and Leadership

Most of the accomplishments listed above seem to come from Orrin Woodward, an author and blogger on everything from leadership and management to financial health and the media. He’s pretty accomplished and seems to be leading the pack.

Woodward got his start with Amway back in the early 90s. He was so successful, he started selling leadership and motivational tools to other distributors at the company. Of course, Amway wasn’t crazy about that, even though (according to Woodward) his tools helped Amway generate an extra $200 million in sales one year.

Either way, he left in 2007 to start his own full-fledged leadership and motivational company called Team. An article in Forbes back in 2008 calls the company “a pyramid on top of a pyramid.” [4]

Eventually, they were hit with a lawsuit from Amway in 2010 that was settled confidentially. In 2011, Life Leadership was born (aka Team was renamed).

How much does Life Leadership cost?

The Business Starter Kit costs $99. In order to stay active, a Member must also purchase a monthly subscription to one of the company’s products.

Products

Life Leadership sells educational products that come in the form of audio CDs, videos, and books. The company also holds over 7,500 live events every year in various locations around the world.

The products are based on the teachings of both Woodward and Brady, and they’re not without their fair share of awards. Aside from the NY Times Bestseller list, they’ve also won a Gold ADDY Award for Design, eLit Awards, Living Now Book Awards, Illumination Book Awards, and Reader’s Legacy Choice Awards.

Life Leadership sells leadership and motivational programs and tools in the following three categories:

Financial Development

Professional Development

Personal Development

Financial Fitness

These are their financial development products. Subscription products range from $11-$22 per month, and includes financial tracking and savings tips as well as tools for building good wealth habits. Master classes charge a one-time fee ranging from $109-$246.99, and they teach students the basics of financial fitness and personal finance.

Corporate Education

These are professional development tools based on the bestselling book Launching a Leadership Revolution by Orrin Woodward and Chris Brady. Subscriptions cost $64.95 for 6 months and include 1 book and 4 audios each month.

Personal Development

Their personal development products come in the form of monthly subscriptions ranging from $11/month to $82.50/month. They teach things like personal growth, the principles of success, the principles of freedom, and spiritual growth (for Christians). They even have personal development products geared toward teens and pre-teens.

Compensation Plan

Life Leadership’s compensation plan offers 19 and ½ ways to make money, which is really just a gimmick. A compensation plan never needs more than 4 or 5, maybe 6 or 7 different ways to make money – after that the plan is just needlessly complicated, probably to distract people from the fact that they’re still not making any money. [2]

If I went into detail on all 16.5 ways to make money with Life Leadership, you’d probably die of boredom before getting to the end. So, I’ll just list out all 19 (and a half) and then discuss the most important.

Retail Sales Commission

Customer Pool Bonus

Cumulative Customer Bonus

Personal Volume Bonus Chart Commissions

Customer Bonus Chart Commissions

Differential Bonus Chart Commissions

Product Scholarship Program

Scholarship Development Bonus

Fun in the Sun Cruise

Balanced Business Bonus

Annual Cash Awards

Leader Bonus

13-16. Various Depth Bonuses

½. The “3 for FREE” Customer Referral Program

Retail Sales Commission is 15% on all personal sales – not very high compared to other popular MLMs like Scentsy, Beachbody, and LegalShield.

The “3 for FREE” program means that if you get three customers subscribing to products that cost as much as or more than your subscription in a month, you get that month for free.

The Customer Pool Bonus is a bonus paid out based on a Member’s total Registered Customer sales in a month, as long as they hit at least 600 PV. This bonus starts at $50.

The Cumulative Customer Bonus is a similar bonus based on Registered Customer sales, but it’s an annual bonus based on a distributor’s sales in an entire calendar year. The bonus ranged from $500 for 5,000 PV in annual sales to $40,000 for 200,000 PV in annual sales. Of course, you have to stick around for a year to get this bonus, and most don’t.

The Differential Bonus Chart Commission is money you make based on the total volume sold by your downline. Exact numbers are not specified.

The Scholarship bonuses (7 & 8) are monthly bonuses ranging from $60-$500 that depend on the size and performance of your team.

The Depth Bonuses (13-16) are rank bonuses that reward distributors for moving up in rank and also reward them for having team members who move up in rank.

Recap

The compensation plan might all sound pretty confusing, and it’s supposed to. But if you look past all the gimmicks and jargon, to the income disclosure statement at the bottom of the compensation plan, it’s pretty clear how much money you can make.

The majority of Life Leadership distributors, about 65%, are making $.07-$82.29 per month. That’s right – 7 cents. Even the high end here is barely making enough to pay off their subscription.

Look, I’ve been involved with network marketing for over ten years so I know what to look for when you consider a new opportunity.

After reviewing 200+ business opportunities and systems out there, here is the one I would recommend:
