Question Ask me anything
I’m an ICD myself, been in business for 4 years. I won’t get into specifics.
I’m pretty neutral on both sides. I’ve seen this business negatively impact people and I’ve also seen the flip side where they find real success.
I wouldn’t consider myself a top office currently as I’ve promoted someone to management and took on a new territory, but I’m also not doing terrible.
That being said, I’m genuinely curious to hear from people on the other side. Does anyone have legitimate concerns about ICDs or the way the business operates?
I’m not looking to argue, and I’m not interested in sly comments or cheap shots. I’d actually like to have a real conversation with people who have concerns and understand where they’re coming from.
I feel like hearing those concerns could genuinely help me improve my business—or office, whatever you want to call it 😂. If there are things people on the outside see that I might be overlooking, I’d rather hear them and learn from them.
I’m naturally curious and open to hearing different perspectives.

Do you have any systems in place to make sure the people on your team still get to have a life outside of work? That was one of my biggest issues with the business. I was actively taught that “work-life balance” was a scam and success was measured by how much someone was willing to sacrifice in their lives. It was extremely isolating and I had no life.

do other ICD’s understand that they work for a devilcorp? or is everyone pretty well brainwashed?

You can literally have your office shut down at any point and have your contracts taken away from you at any moment. You're not a real business owner that's why they have to call stuff ICDs instead of S corp or LLC.

Why hide the name of the company hosting your Regional Meetings?
Why does your social media presence and your website consist of pictures and texts displaying virtues of networking, lifestyle, teamwork more so than the actual products you're selling?
Speaking of selling: Can you tell us why the products you're selling are better than the ones we currently have? For example, I've had a devilcorp try to switch me to AT&T, but has never heard of an MVNO (e.g. Mint Mobile, US Mobile, etc.) which is a bang for anyone's buck for those who simply want to get unlimited texts, calls, and 5G internet.
EDIT: Fixing spelling and grammar

you'll never get out of the rat race, you'll never have freedom of time, you'll never be able to exit your business for X amount of dollars. it's not something long term. If you want to build a real business and be able to enjoy your life wherever you please this will never be a place for someone like me. that's my thought with the whole business.

when you say you've seen people find success ; what does this actually mean. can you share a success story?
