How about if a few weeks later I send him an audio CD by a speaker or trainer (could even be a competitor of mine.) that gives him loads of great ideas on how to deal with his challenge? More debt? Yes. What if a few weeks after that I send him a copy of a best selling business book by another author that gives him even more information. More debt, Yes. What if I send him a copy of this book?

The problem is that you, more than likely, do not sell enough in volume to make a profit. Businesses that don't make a profit don't stay in business very long.
We all get into direct selling for two main reasons; the product and the income opportunity. But it usually takes a while to see the bigger picture. What many people find surprising is that it is not always about the money. We all know money is important, but it is not the real reason people succeed in this business.
