Just in case you have been wondering what’s happening on the CF boards. Wonder no more. The International Director of Sales and Marketing for Clubfreedom International – Michael Faust will be coming to Nigeria for some seminar events in the next few Days. Michael Faust’s visit should ginger up activity on the boards, as the meeting hopefully educates people better about Clubfreedom, and what people need to do to get things working again.
Every program and product experiences a lull once in a while. I remember clearly that around such a lull was witnessed by Clubfreedom around February/March last year, until new and fresh energy came in. The days ahead will provide an opportunity to gain answers on a lot of questions on CF, and at last have a basis for trusting CF – as an company that is interested in Nigeria and Nigerians.
The Lagos Event will hold on the 27th of January, Port Harcourt on Tuesday the 29th of January and Abuja on the Wednesday the 30th of January, all 2008.
To make it for the events, you are required to register ahead with the links provided below
I sincerely advice that we try to make it to the event or be represented at the event. This is our opportunity not only to hear what they have for us, but to also suggest what we believe will make things work better.
I look forward to Seeing you there!

Thanks for the update.
Thank you for the update …we are ready for them.
cheers
@ all,
Please note that the 27th January is a SUNDAY and not saturday.
Cheers!
@Deolu,
I thought CF belongs to the past?
Personnally i discovered that you trust people (or shld i say CF staff) so easily, i dont mean when you have good reasons to. I take no offence but pls, understand my where am coming from. IMO they have disappointed in the past. Trust is earned and not bestowed.You sound very confident that he would come hence raising ppls expectation and if for any reasons he fails, what will be ppls impression? You have asked them to “wonder no more”
The link for PH isn’t responding. where else can we get details of his visit. I think such details should have been displayed boldy and should’nt need any form of registration to access. Hope this is not another marketing strategy.
That said, best wishes to ya all though am not a CF member by the way.
CF does not belong to the past. It is actually designed to help you reduce vacation costs.It is the ‘in thing’. It is in ‘vouge’.
We Nigerians misunderstood the whole concept and took it as an investment scheme.What they clearly invited you to do was to be part of their marketing programme. Each person was designated as a travel consultant and was expected to market at least two people to buy the travel certificates. But what did we do ? As soon as some people saw others cycling, they relaxed marketing and waited for their own turn, others founded wonder banks on it. Some other people went round telling their friends just invest money in this thing and in 6 weeks time you make $6,000. And that was where the whole error was made.
I know people who have cycled and have 7 nights paid for but maybe they do not understand how to travel with it or for reasons best known to them, have not done so. I believe that in an economy where most people are financially empowered to pay for a vacation, Club freedom would have made more sense.That is why we have to work and pray for a ‘New Nija’.
Google up RCI and Interval International. What CF is trying to do is clearly modelled after these largely successful holiday programs, though they do not share the same marketing plans.
I have had the opportunity to market some timeshare properties affliated to Interval International. It was then that I understood the secret behind westerners travelling endlessly every summer and winter to various holiday spots.They travel at a largely discounted rate. They get their tickets at crazy prices and accomodation at up to 50%-75% discount. While we that do not understand the whole game walks in to a hotel and pay extra 100% – 300% depending on the country and season.
The regrets I have about CF is that they are yet to include vacation spots like Ghana, Benin republic,Cape Verde, Dubai, Singapore,that will favour Nigerians in their package.
Ghana,Benin, Gambia, Cape Verde because they are cheap top vacation spots for nigerians and we do not need a visa to get there.Dubai, singapore because visa is no problem.
And also announcing their getaway deals on time.Just like the belated mail they sent out for their Greece cruise.
But on the whole I still support Deolu in saying wonder no more, because at least this is our opportunity to get to see the real people behind the whole stuff, understand how to make use of our travel certificates and ask questions.
I believe that after this event, there will be direction. Remember an uninformed mind is a deformed mind.
Just have a list of your questions on Sunday. We will all be there by God’s grace.
Thanks.
Nigerians will be ready for you as long as it is for our own benefit.
@ezinwanne
Thanks for the enlightenment.
My surprise stems from the fact that in recent time, nothing has been said about CF here in this site esp. since the advent of NNC. So naturally, i am wont to think it belongs to the past because even most CF members seemed to have piped down on it.
IF he is coming to Naija, good enough, but the venues for the meetings should be boldly stated (the links are not oppening).
I gues the guy is already in town against 2morow’s meeting.
Pls where is the venue, and what is the time for the PH event?
Ezinwanne ndewo!
@Royal prince,
Wonder no more means – you don’t need to be wondering, when you can go for a meeting and get your questions answered. I’m not guaranteeing anybody of anything, I never have. I’m just saying that for people who are genuinely interested in this business, there is hope.
The Lagos event is taking place at the Events place.
Thanks
@ Royal Prince,
The PH event will take place at The “Presidential Hotel”; (I suppose they meant HOTEL PRESIDENTIAL) on Tuesday 29th January at 2.30PM.
The Lagos Event will take place on Sunday 27th January at 12 Noon.
All the best.
@ Royal_Prince,
Truly CF must belong to the past. Frankly I’m getting tired about people not being honest about what they feel deep down. How can it not belong to the past when even their ecash_invest is useless.
However, I will attend the meeting NOT bcos I believe that are coming with anything good. They aren’t! CF is not a listening club. Unless they rebrand, nothing will come out of it.
Pls note: MLM only favours a few at the detriment of the larger crowd. Nigerian leaders, what have you done recently to aid your downlines? We are told that the only work to do is introduce our own 2 persons. But there are many who have done more than these and are still stuck on the boards.
There are many who will read my post and try to rationalize it. To such people, if they have downlines (especially downlines who have introduced 2 people or more)….how will u aid those people cos they’ve actually done the basic work expected of them.
I tire for the whole thing sef.
Outta here!
Wonderful awareness drive deolu. I like you.
Royal_Prince should come and hear out the man. By so doing he will understand the whole issue about CF.
It was nice meeting you today.
We are all entitled to our opinions. Truth be told people who are REAL networkers have made success out of CF. Majority of Nigerians who dove into CF did so for the wrong MOTIVE(S). They all ran away to GC and have done the same there.
They are the ones that have given MLM a BAD NAME and the ones still complaining.
My only advice is that they re-educate themselves, go ahead and do the right thing and the REAL results will show.
CF ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@ Dele
In as much as you are entitled to your veiws, I will like to point out some things to you.
1) CF does not award prizes to those with two downlines. Somewhere along the line you downlines stopped marketing. It is not your job to get people for you downlines rather you assist them by giving them training and temporary peeps. And besides you knew too well about the boards before you joined. If the people stop joining……., you can fill in the gaps.
2) Truth is that marketing, wether direct, MLM, in empolyment or trading is not easy. You have to constantly challenge yourself and reinvent strategies. Ask a marketer in a bank or any company.
3) CF is a listening club. They changed they reward programme to suit what people wanted.
4) Watch CNN or google up SGBN paris $7.5 billion fraud. You will be glad that e-cash is still remitting 2% which adds up to 24% per annum.
5) For your last question, get your downlines to attend any of the events, and market CF truthfully not telling peope they will cycle in 3 weeks. The truth is that not every one will join but those who need the services they are providing will.
6) I agree with you on rebranding. They need to adapt to the Nigerian situation and provide travel deals that will favour nigerians. Remember it started of by offering discount vacation accomodation deals and free vacation before we asked them to moneitize rewards.
@ Ezinwanne,
What you are telling me now is not new. I have done more than that telling people all these things. CF, like every other MLM will only favour a few….the early comers. As time goes on, u will have a long line of downlines who get stuck and never circle out….some of them bcos the didn’t do enough marketing and others bcos many in there group have stopped marketing thereby putting too much burden on them to keep doing the marketing alone.
My dear, contary to what you think, I have circled out from CF once. I was in a very dynamic team (won’t metntion it here), but since then all my downlines are stuck cos nobody is marketing CF any longer. Even my ever dynamic team leaders have stopped referring people. It’s a selfish game, right from the top to the bottom. If it’s supposed to be a team work, why did the team leaders stop work in CF? Bcos they’ve circled to their heart content! Let us stop the lies. Let’s look more at helping people gain from it even if they eventually don’t circle out.
You talk of investment fraud or loss. That happens in every biz. But why risk money in a venture that the owner clearly warned you that there is no guarantee you won’t loose your money? That consistutes a risk (which every biz has), but why take that kind of risk for such a paltry profit? Is it really worth it? If you think it’s worth it…fine!
@ all,
Instead of keeping your money with ecash invest, the Nigerian stock market is a better deal – by far!
The big difference btw CF and NNC is that in NNC you at least gain something significant even if you don’t circle out. If you must join NNC and the NNC boards, be carefull to look out for leaders with a track record of caring about their downlines. There are too many who only care for themselves.
I’m outta here!
Naija…Freedom of speech…..Everyone has a reason for joining any club ,if you believe in CF and others fine…why dnt we just come together and encourage New Nigeria Club(NNC),forget about those behind the vision,Its a nice concept and idea.
Let us promote our own product made in naija,lets help build the nation to a greater height.
cheers
@ Dele
You have made you point but pls do not put words in my mouth. I do not know who you are so there is no way I will think that you have never cycled from CF.
You mentioned your dynamic team leaders became static, so what stopped any of you from filling the gap? You could have stepped up and made a difference.
Marketing is a very selfish proffession. Those in paid employment will tell you that not meeting target consistently can get you fired. MLM or any form of marketing is not for everybody. Have you bothered to find out why one of two women selling tomatoes in the market next to each other is more sucessful than the other? It is simply because one can market more than the other.
The reality is when marketing CF what information did your leaders really dish out to people? Did they tell them trust me and I will take you to the promise land? Or did they say work, build your team, call on us for support when you need help? The person that marketed me told me the truth that is why I do not have any regrets. The worst that can happen is when travelling I make use of my voucher and get a discount.
Ecash invest like every other business is risky business. Every adult should weigh investments carefully before diving in. Remember the mantra ‘ Do not invest what you cannot afford to loose’.
@ Ezinwanne,
The beauty of freedom of speech is that everyone can have his/her say on anything. I won’t bother going round and round. I might be the only one voicing out my anger at the deceit pertaining to MLM. It’s bcos I empathize with the so many who have not benefitted from especially CF.
@ all,
MLM is NOT a bad biz venture. It’s the people in your team that will make it a worthwhile venture or otherwise.
Be wise, be carefull, be vigilant! Don’t join just for the sake of it. Join only under leaders who care for u, and ur eventual success.
A word, they say, is enough for the wise!!!
Thanks for the awareness.ur a gem
I’ve been following this site since a few months before I joined CF. Reading of how everyone was cycling sealed the deal for me. I’m having trouble now and was wondering if anyone could help. I started in 6k4you and am now in CF. Its been so long I can’t even remember, but I’m struggling to get signups. My downline, which my dad got for me, thinks they’ve been scammed. They don’t research anything at all.
I haven’t personally signed a single person and was wondering if anyone here could help me. How do you all get yours? I advertise everyday but don’t get anything.
Any suggestions?
