The family and I went to a fast food restaurant the other night, and I was surprised to see a meeting being held in the dining room. It wasn't an employee meeting for the restaurant; it was a sales meeting of some sort. Of course wanted to be nosy, so we sat close enough that I could hear what was going on. They were discussing selling something, and even though they never said what, I got the feeling it was one of those pyramid type deals. You know, where you sell a product, and then get other people under you who also sell it, and then you get a cut of their profits? To me, I wouldn't be able to take them seriously if they have to have their meetings in a fast food restaurant.
I would think that if they were serious about getting people to sell their product, they would take their presentations a little more seriously. In my opinion, it would look better if they had their meetings in an actual board room, or even a Holiday Inn Meetings room. It's so easy to find a meeting room close to where you live, and I bet the company would have better luck getting people to sign up with them. I know I would be more inclined to join a company who took pride in their business meetings.
