  I should own an IPAD because I am an Unfranchise Owner for the most cutting edge company in the world today. The IPAD will provide the cutting edge technology needed to show my business plan "on the spot" using the most current technology available. Impressive. It will simplify my daily routing by having everything I need in one very light, tight and cutting edge package. I think the IPAD represents everything my company projects "True Genius

  JR~ Thank you for the opportunity to win an iPad.
  
  Why should I own an iPad? 1) I would share it with my bride (10 year anniversary gift maybe 5/19/2010) so she could use it for her Motives presentations. 2) The kids and I would use it as a learning tool. They use ‘Mac/Apple’s’ in school. 3) I have a HTC Hero Google Android phone and lack a cool apple gadget like the iPhone.
  
  What would I use it for? 1) As a MA Web Center owner it would make doing in person demos much easier at prospective new client offices and coffee shops. 2) I have a HTC Hero Google Android phone where the Android calendar doesn’t work with my Google calendar. I would start using the iPad mainly for the calendar functionality with the Apple calendar I’ve been waiting to move to. 3) I would also use it as a book reader.
  
  How do I believe it would simplify my daily routine? 1) It would save a lot of time being able to use iCal (calendar), Address Book, and Mail all at the same time on the apple network from the iPad. 2) In the event you can manage all your emails in one place with ‘Mail’ I would not need to be in the office to access all of my different email accounts, therefore saving time and improving productivity and response time. 3) And best of all, I would have the ability to always be able to flip through the online flip chart and continue to grow our UnFranchise business :-)!

  1. I should own an Ipad because, personally I think i deserve it.
  
  2. I would use it for recreation, and school. Just got my GED this would be great for when classes start.
  
  3. It would simplify my daily routine in many ways. Instead of taking notes in my spiral i could just use Word: Mac. If i wanted to read a book in the dark it would be so much easier with the bright-lit screen, and another way it would make things easier is the Map apps they have on it. Me and my friends get lost a lot while driving, and the map app is very impressive from what I've seen it would just be awesome.

  My reason: 1) easier to take to presentations; 2) easier to make appointment and check schedule; 3) easier to manager connectinos and emails; 4) read e-books to save on paper.
  
  That summarized what I would be using iPad for. As for whether it would simplify my daily routine, that's to be tested out.

  Dear JR,
  I should win the Apple iPad because: I am quickly on my way to the top!!! I am working the system, showing the plan, making calls! I am creating a new generation of Market Americans! One that uses FB, Twitter and the Internet to do all of their shopping. I do not have a laptop yet. I am selling retail like mad to buy a laptop... so that we can show the plan by "push play". However, If I have an iPad, I can show the plan from MaTv. I could view the power profiles.. I could show and use testimonials pulled from my email and portal. I could demonstrate the cash back program to prospects and "IBV" candidates. I could show them, on the spot, just how simple and effective it is to plug in coupon codes AND get cash back! I am Nutrametrix certified. I could use the iPad during that first appointment to showcase the products from my Nutrametrix website. I could pull from pictures and videos from the Nutrametrix trainings and product symposiums.. AND DUPLICATE THE SYSTEM ON THE SPOT. The iPad is fast, easy and portable. I don't have to sit in down... etc. Its great for travel. I could show the plan on the plane... on the train! I would especially love to use it for Motives, as I am Motives certified as well. I would pull videos and clips from Youtube of Loren-- so they could see how cutting edge Motives is! Clips from MaTv and testimonials from my Motives clients on Cellular and Matriskin. I could show "before and after's" for Matriskin and Pentaxyl to Plastic Surgeons. I could bring up my Motives website quickly at salons to search through products quickly and "at a glance". As far as "simplifying my routine": First, I get one million emails from Big Al to my inbox daily. I could check them quickly, making me more efficient. I could blog my goals, my inspirations, and what I read that day-- propelling me to Director! It would be an incredible resource for fast and easy access to the portal and all my Ma resources. My husband could also use it for demonstrating Website developement to potential prospects. He could take care of all the "back of the house" requirements while we are on the road. I would make my goals and my daily inspirations my screen saver. I would take it everywhere with me! This is why I should have the Apple iPad. Thank you for this AGAIN, incredible opportunity.

  What will I use the Ipad for?
  Currently I carry a laptop around alot and the Ipad would lighten the load considerably. I can see a future in corings, trainings, and introducting people to MA with wifi and the web.
  This in itself will simplify my life.

  I have 4 daughters and am just starting an MA business. It would help me to have easy access to all my pertinent info and be able to keep up with my girls all at the same time. I can access the MA site on the go, check my email and reply, keep my schedule with me, and have access to all my contacts. I can even play a game or video for the little ones, or read to them from iBook no matter where we are. Plus, it's just really cool.

  1. Why should you own an iPad? I should win an iPad because first of all I have followed all of your steps & rules for this contest. Second of all I feel that I deserve an ipad since I am a busy mother of two teenagers and daughter in-law helping to care for my 95 year old mother-in-law, therefore I always putting everyone first. An iPad is something that I have really wanted and would like own as it would be something very special and just for me!
  2. What will you use it for? I will use this iPad to assist me in my home based business that I manage along with my husband. I solely handle the entire office from financial to customer service as well as several side projects which involve social media networking & marketing. This device would allow me to do all of this with the portability to take it "on the fly" in my busy family/business/social life. 3. How do you believe it will simplify your daily routine? The iPad will simply my daily routine because as I stated in #2 I the iPad is very portable and I would be able to keep up on our business and personal business while "on the fly" with our busy lives. I would be free to leave the office and do business virtually anywhere (yeah, even at the beach?!;)There are so many apps and features I am sure that it will simply my life so much more than I really even know even. I can not wait to own one so that I can find out first hand;)

  Why should you own an iPad? I believe the iPad is a bridge between the Laptop and the Smart Phone devices. It does a little more than cellphone...little less than a full laptop. We know by netbook sales that some people don't need full OS powered Laptops and there is a niche for a "tablet" such as the iPad. With ease of use and the applications that customize your experience this allows a larger audience to be connected to the internet and the key will be in the apps that will ultimately lead to the greater exposure to the virtual world and virtual merchandising. the key seems to be the apps to make our lives easier...not just the hardware. It is all about the interface. Remember the mouse? There is nothing more satisfying and natural than navigating with the touch of your fingers on a screen that is big enough yet portable enough.
  What will I use it for? Games, cooking, learning to play guitar, Surfing the net, Fantasy Sports, presentations and Videos. I’ll be able to do this places where a full laptop isn't practical. I can actually see an iPad in a bathroom where a laptop would be awkward! Surfing and checking email in bed! Even simple shopping in bed! Heck...software is going to be in a “cloud” over the internet eventually and not in the hardware. it's all about the interface and ease of use!
  How do you believe it will simplify my daily routine? Obviously from the simplicity of the device itself I would be able to do the average mundane checking emails, social networking, surfing the net, reading books, specific downloadable apps and games from iTunes. Watching videos would be nicer. Video content is more portable than before. Remember the mp3 audios? Now no more DVDs. Now we have the iPad as a portable video device that more than one person can see with a touch interface! I’d leave the hard to do database applications, heavy personal finance, heavy video editing, and other heavy business application for my desktop/laptop computer. My wife could watch Claudia Bentancur’s Videos and learn how to apply makeup in the bathroom; try that with your laptop! I would take the iPad with me and use it to show business videos to clients, and show my portal to clients. I could even play a slide show to clients on this portable device.
  The practical uses of the iPad might not be as obvious as one might think, however, if you analyze how simple the hardware, software, and interface operates you will see how this device will simplify the tasks that is most common in computing to everyone. The iPad is more portable than a laptop, is just as pretty a display as a desktop, is easy to use as a smart phone, with next generation interface (human touch). This definately fills a gap and might not revolutionize the industry but I know the iPad will allow me to do more things easier, faster, in places i would not normally in a fun package!

  Why should I own an iPad?
  - Personally, I don't get all the hype around the iPad. From what I can tell, I have everything on my iPhone thanks to Apple's ability to think outside the microsoft box. Let's also state, that this is not the world's first tablet type system. But you do have to hand it to apple, they have some marketing geniuses that gets the industry all together, and let's the press do the talking. So where was I? Right, why should I own an iPad. Other than the fact it's a giant iPhone, it would be great to let my 4 year old daughter have her own fun with her own device. She pirates my iPhone every night just to look at pictures, and take pictures of herself. LOL. The iPad is a serious game changer though!
  
  What will I use it for
  - When I'm taking a breather from Market America and my team, I can imagine kicking back on the couch,download a few good utility apps. But what I think will be awesome, is taking it out my bag with a potential prospect to show them the portal and signing up PCs alot easier. Because, you don't have to wait for the laptop to start, and then find a wireless network (as soon as 3g model comes out). I think the Ipad will make some of MA business flow a bit smoother.
  
  - I hear several big companies are equipping their mobile force with Ipads. which I think is a very smart move. For now, I don't see how it will simplify my daily routines, however, who knows what Apple will invent next to replace the laptop.

  What's that?
  -It's my new iPad...it's how I run and manage my Unfranchise business.
  
  Unfranchise business? What's that?
  -[launches browser to webportal] It's a product brokerage and internet marketing business...I help my customers to find the products they want and need. My customers earn Cashback rewards when they buy Market America branded products [swiping through featured brands/categories] or from our numerous partner stores. [scrolling through alphabetical list]
  
  Hey! I recognize a LOT of those store and I am really interested in health and nutrition. So, you earn money helping people shop and you help them save money too?
  -Yes. And I can do it part time until I decide to fire my boss.
  
  Hmm...I hate my boss. How can I find out more about this Unfranchise business?
  -Here, watch this short presentation [launches video].
  
  Wow! That was amazing! That JR guy is quite a visionary! I've got a couple of friends who would love this company. Can you show them what you showed me?
  -Tuesday afternoon or is Friday night better [brings up calendar to schedule, then contacts to get prospects info for follow up]

  1) Considering that I'm a Market America independent distributer, I think I should own an iPad because it would help promote Market America in my life and it would make accessing websites on the go much easier. And I'm sure my son would love to surf the web on this
  2) Again, since I'm a Market America distributer, I think that this would mainly be focused around and to promote Market America. This would also be excellent to watch movies with the family at home or on the go.
  3)Carring around a heavy labtop everyday isn't that fun. So the iPad would allow me to access the internet without the hassel of carring around a labtop. With all the aps on this thing, I wouldn't have to carry around a calendar, notebook, or a labtop. Instead, when I go out, all I have to do is grab the iPad and go.

  Hi Jr, just got your reply and it's definetely a mindset and success attitude that's key. Thanks for the tip.
  
  P.s. i can carry it anywhere and have no limits to grow my business and work on school projects, it's the size of a notebook which simplifies the weight load as well. I REALLY need one :)

  I should own an iPad for the following reasons: I frequently go out of town to be with my husband who is working in another state, and he is staying in a campground with no internet access. If I had an iPad, I could get internet access without a contract, and not have to pay for it when I am home and already have internet service. I have a bad back, and it would be wonderful to have something lighter than a heavy laptop to carry around also.
  I would use it for the following: The Contacts app would be perfect for keeping up with prospects and PC's, especially with the note-keeping feature. It would be much easier to use when meeting with prospects than a laptop, and I could use it most anywhere with the 3G option. I would not have to lug my heavy laptop, find a place where I can get on the internet and plug it in (battery issues), and bother with putting a DVD in to show the business overview video. I could also show the webcenter videos on it, if I understand it correctly (and I might be wrong about this because I am not terribly technical). I could also show prospects the web portal and use all of the features of the portal. I believe that with the myriad of apps available that I have just skimmed the surface of what I could do business-wise with the iPad.
  I believe that it would simplify my daily routine by giving me a device that I could use just about anywhere, anytime, with anyone who showed the slightest interest in the business, our products, our cashback program, a business website, or anything else to do with Market America. It would also be wonderful to be able to keep up with my interaction with prospects and customers through the contacts app. I could keep up with my email more efficiently, and I could send emails in a more timely manner if I could do this anytime, anywhere. When I am out of town, I have a terrible time keeping up because of what I have to go through to get on the internet. Having the iPad would be absolutely wonderful for me and my business.

  I would love to own the iPad because it is portable and useful. I would be able to show all my prospects all the great things about Market America on the spot! Not only would I use it to show people Market America, but also it would simplify my daily routine because I would be able to check the weather, news, or buy something I need on Market America no matter where I am.

  Why should you own an iPad? / What will you use it for? / How do you believe it will simplify your daily routine?
  
  
  
  First of all, I just put it on my Dream board / Goal Sheet and not two days later I see you are running this contest. I take that as a sign.
  
  
  It’s a great conversation starter. People are drawn to it, especially now because it is so new. Take out your I-Pad, and you are surrounded by group of people. The fastest “Add 2” ever . . .
  
  
  
  As a MA UFO, being able to show the webportal/cashback “on the fly” is a great way to build customers and prospects. An I-Phone screen just doesn’t have the same impact as an I-pad. In two minutes standing at a checkout line I can generate interest, book an appointment or even register a PC. It’s a great appetizer/enticement that will improve my ability to book appointments to see the whole presentation.
  
  
  I can just picture myself making a Home Depot run with my Gift Certificate’s I purchased from my portal – talking to people at the checkout line and letting them know how they could have earned cashback etc. I could be out having dinner with family and show people at the next table how to get gift certificates (to that restaurant) on restaurant.com. The possibilities are endless. The visual impact of the big screen is tremendous.
  
  
  I have two beautiful daughters Sarah (4) and Isabella (2) who are already tech savvy. As a proud papa I am always showing pictures of them on my I-Phone and there are several applications that I already use with them. Their favorites are the Dr. Seuss interactive books created by Ocean Media. Bed time book time would be so much nicer with an I-Pad. Did I mention that they like Disney movies too?
  
  
  
  Travel would certainly be easier – getting through airport security faster, less weight/size in my carry on. Laptops usually signify “work” but I-Pads convey “fun”.
  
  
  I love my “to do” lists and using the I-Pad for that function will greatly simply my life as a juggle a FT job, MA, Family, Exercise, Charity, etc.

  I believe I should have the chance to own an iPad, being a rather new MA distributor myself, with an entrepreneurial desire to craft my way in society and help people make their lives easier in the process. As I’m not able to afford an iPad at this time, winning one would surely create an abundance of opportunities for me. Apple is a leader in the market with their innovative products and I believe they coincide with MA’s innovative business outlook and values. As I’ve found, MA is truly a company that has “it” right and other companies cannot touch the processes of the business unless they try to duplicate them.
  
  Like MA, Apple products portray an image to others in association of being creative, innovative, and willing to take a risk to better the world. Having an iPad would give me the chance to build an total encompassing innovative professional image, not only to be perceived in my business but also in my daily life as I will be able to create a novel picture for potential clients when sharing the business. First impressions are most important, and I don’t just think, but I know that having an iPad-being an electronic device where I can access everything I need in one place to effectively demonstrate to others the MA business and all its endeavors-would give me an advantage in creating a most plausible first impression.
  
  Having the chance to experience the iPad for myself recently, I know if I had one of my own, there is an incredible amount of things I could utilize this tool for. I have this burning entrepreneurial desire deep inside and I have already made one life changing decision to start my own business by becoming an unfranchised business owner under MA. As I seek my passion to help others, I know having such an innovative tool as the iPad at my accessibility would open doors of opportunity to network and build my business from the group up. Having an iPad would create a mind-blowing amount of new ways to network in helping to grow my business and fulfill my blazing entrepreneurial desire to better the lives of others in any way possible. Being able to test some of Apple’s other products, such as the iPhone, I can personally testify that Apple’s innovative products are designed to make life much easier in methods of carrying out daily activities. You can look up things in the blink of an eye and network to share information with others that can be useful to them. An iPad is one step further to helping my daily operations, as I work to build my MA business, become simplistic and tremendously time saving. It really is a device than can simplify the way we do things every day.
  
  The iPad is an innovative piece of technology that I know I can use for countless activities. It is great for creating quick documents and giving one on one presentations-like to show to the business-as well as being able to show videos, provide information, and illustrate to others just how easy it is to shop through my online web portal. And with a simple flip of the iPad, I would be able to show others exactly what I’m conveying instead of having to explain in words. It would be a perfect tool in showing the Isotonic line of products and their characteristics as well as any other product with a few simple taps of the finger. Because this piece of technology can do all this and more, with it readily accessible I would be able to now show the business even more effectively. I would not just be able to paint a picture for potential clients anymore, but this tool would allow me to draw the picture out for them. This piece of technology is so innovative, that other companies like HP are trying to render their own versions of the iPad to keep up with Apple in their leadership to innovation for the future. Therefore, I understand the power behind the image of Apple products, and when mixed with the image of MA, it is a lethal combination for influence in leaving no doubt in a potential clients mind that they need to also get on board with MA to experience a life-changing opportunity of their own.
  
  Apple provides to their customers as MA provides to its customers in meeting the needs of the end consumer by tailoring products to better the everyday lives of the people. The iPad is a prime example of this by Apple, as it is a tool that can truly make every aspect of not only mine, but the daily activities of anyone else available at one electronic source that can be accessed at any time. As the iPad evolves into the future, like the MA business, I believe it will become a tool of limitless possibilities that will make our everyday’s lives as simplistic as it gets, without another individual doing the work for you. It’s not just about making money, it’s about leaving a positive impact in this world and knowing you did something to change it for the better, and the satisfaction that comes along with.
  
  An iPad would simplify my daily routine is so many ways, as I network to grow my business, that I can’t even list them all. Just even having the iPad is a conversation started I’ve found with people that already own them. It would even simplify my objective in sharing the MA business as one conversation can quickly lead to another. Being able to use the iPad to show any and every aspect of the business to others on the spot creates an advantage, as using such an innovative piece of technology would most certainly engage attention and leave others wanting to know more.
  
  Having an entrepreneurial desire-this slim, convenient and innovative, fast processing, easy to use, and extremely portable piece of cutting edge technology-would be perfect even when traveling, as I would be able to now share the business with visual that can be opened with merely a few finger taps in demonstration of my purpose, anywhere I go. With a battery life of ten hours, such a novel tool would allow me to go about building my business and provide ease on a daily basis without having to worry about recharging it during the day. Being able to take notes and write things down electronically in a moments notice will most certainly ensure that not a single customer’s need will be forgotten. Being able to show the business plan electronically at any time necessary provides for a one up situation in business and sales. The iPad would truly be an asset to have in building my entrepreneurial and professional image in association with MA.
  
  I believe the iPad is an amazing piece of technology that can completely change how MA distributors can go about showing the business at a moments notice without having to carry around assortments of copies or pamphlets as visuals. Having all your resources at one electronic destination on a long lasting battery of ten hours is a combination leading to a positive and professional image in MA. I feel confident that the iPad is a piece of technology that can truly be utilized for any MA distributor, and therefore reason, it is a piece of equipment every MA distributor should have to effectively show the business.
  
  Gaining an iPad would help me effectively organize and grow my MA business both now and in the future, in a way many may never know how. JR, I greatly appreciate and value your kindness, which can touch and change the life of another, such as mine, by this giveaway. Thank you for the opportunity.

  I think you should own an Ipad for convenience and portability. I will use it for work, going from meeting to meeting can be made easier with the sleekness of the Ipad. It will make my day to day activities easier because I can use it instead of my phone or desktop to organize my day and keep track of my emails.

  I believe I should get the Apple i-Pad because I want to know the latest up-to-date news with Market America while I'm away from my computer. I don't want to miss any opportunity the passes me by. I will be in Maryland next Friday and as well as the Miami yacht training in May 24/25 with the greatest people in business (yes, JR and the rest). I'm writing this to let people know that I have to borrow money from families and friends in order to be in this business and to go on these trips, because I believe this is the path to my future...

  * Why should I own an iPad?
  My life continues to move at a quicker pace these days - I need to keep up! I want the freedom of accessing all the information I want or need to at my fingertips - whenever and wherever that may be!
  * What will I use it for?
  I will use it to keep track of my business - my clients and patients - my portal and my practice.
  * How do I believe it will simplify my daily routine?
  It will allow for streamlined on-the-go information access and superior personal interaction while explaining our simple but ingenious business plan - and it's usable as a writing tablet with handwriting recognition availability for taking chart notes on my patients, allowing me to comply with coming Electronic Health Records mandates. A win-win for my potential business partners, my patients and my peace of mind!
  
  You who have proven to be so cutting edge must want one too - for all the same reasons (minus the patients - many thanks for your patience in considering my answers!)!

  Why do you need an Apple iPad? Well the truth is you don't, not yet anyway. Why do I want an iPad? Because its the newest and coolest gadget that everybody's talking about! An instant conversation starter.
  
  Theres more thought, right now I have a desktop computer and I need something to take with me on the road. I've been looking at laptops but a second computer is not what I need. The iPad is the perfect supplement to a desktop computer. It's big enough to see what your doing and light enough to throw in your bag without weighing you down. Plus the battery can keep the device awake longer then your favorite flavor of MochaTonix.
  
  The biggest and most exciting reason for me to get an iPad is the applications that are available and yet to be created. What better way is there to interact with something then to touch it?
  
  Imagine for a moment that a new distributor signs into the business and has an iPad. When he goes to the app store he finds a UBP application that can be download to start showing the plan. No training required!
  
  When he meets with his first prospective client he slaps down his iPad and within a moment the bright and shiny screen becomes an interactive Unfranchise Business Presentation. With just the use of his, or the clients fingers, they are guided through the entire presentation. Imaging being able to have the device speak for you when you don't know the answer to a question or play a video by simply touching on a product.
  
  Don't we already have something like this in place? Yes, the UBP DVD allows us to just press play, but an interactive iPad application would allow us to go into detail where the client wants it, and skip over things the client isn't interested in. Combining the power of the DVD with the flexibility of the flip chart, we can do some amazing things with this type of application.
  
  Using the power of this touch technology we can implement applications for every product line that is as exciting as the product itself. No other medium can deliver this type of experience. This is why every Unfranchise owner has a use for an iPad, but before we have the need for one applications need to exist that can expand our business unlike anything we've seen before!

  I and every other MA distributor should have an ipad because we are an internet and technologicaly savvy marketing and product brokerage company. We represent the latest and most effective products, marketing stragies and payment structures in the market today. When we have such media heavy hitters like the ladies of "The View", the host of "The Insiders, and lady "Oprah" using and endorsing the ipad then we need to utilize all that great advertisment. This creates sells and IBV. The best way to sell and market an ipad is to be able to show a customer one.
  I would use an ipad to present the website demo to prospective clients and to show the various powerpoint presentations along with my webportal to all my prospects. Not to mention I would use it to market the ipad itself.
  This would simplify my life by being a smaller platform then my laptop. I could be a lot more portable utlizing powerpoint, word, video and my contacts in such a small device.

  I should win the iPad because it will facilitate me in prospecting and showing the amazing MA business plan to people. It will allow me to help them empower their lives and create a crucial change in their financial outlook. With the iPad, will give me the slight edge, it would enable me to create an impressive one on one marketing strategy, and demonstrate that there is a better way than to labor for 45 long years. With the iPad and the powerful business strategy that MA has to offer, it will make people take note of the amazing opportunity to take control of their destiny. This great technological device is the perfect combo for every MA unfranchise business owner. It will make my daily life easier because I will not have to be carrying my laptop everywhere to make my presentations. I will simply carry my slick new iPad and could acquire more business partners and secure more product distribution. =) Cheers JR!

  1. Why should you own an iPad? I should win an iPad because first of all I have followed all of your steps & rules for this contest. Second of all I feel that I deserve an ipad since I am a busy mother of two teenagers and daughter in-law helping to care for my 95 year old mother-in-law, therefore I always putting everyone first. An iPad is something that I have really wanted and would like own as it would be something very special and just for me!
  
  
  
  2. What will you use it for? I will use this iPad to assist me in my home based business that I manage along with my husband. I solely handle the entire office from financial to customer service as well as several side projects which involve social media networking & marketing. This device would allow me to do all of this with the portability to take it "on the fly" in my busy family/business/social life.
  
  
  
  3. How do you believe it will simplify your daily routine? The iPad will simply my daily routine because as I stated in #2 I the iPad is very portable and I would be able to keep up on our business and personal business while "on the fly" with our busy lives. I would be free to leave the office and do business virtually anywhere (yeah, even at the beach?!;)There are so many apps and features I am sure that it will simply my life so much more than I really even know even. I can not wait to own one so that I can find out first hand;)

  I believe I should have the chance to own an iPad, being a rather new MA distributor myself, with an entrepreneurial desire to craft my way in society and help people make their lives easier in the process. As I’m not able to afford an iPad at this time, winning one would surely create an abundance of opportunities for me. Apple is a leader in the market with their innovative products and I believe they coincide with MA’s innovative business outlook and values. As I’ve found, MA is truly a company that has “it” right and other companies cannot touch the processes of the business unless they try to duplicate them.
  
  Like MA, Apple products portray an image to others in association of being creative, innovative, and willing to take a risk to better the world. Having an iPad would give me the chance to build an total encompassing innovative professional image, not only to be perceived in my business but also in my daily life as I will be able to create a novel picture for potential clients when sharing the business. First impressions are most important, and I don’t just think, but I know that having an iPad-being an electronic device where I can access everything I need in one place to effectively demonstrate to others the MA business and all its endeavors-would give me an advantage in creating a most plausible first impression.
  
  Having the chance to experience the iPad for myself recently, I know if I had one of my own, there is an incredible amount of things I could utilize this tool for. I have this burning entrepreneurial desire deep inside and I have already made one life changing decision to start my own business by becoming an unfranchised business owner under MA. As I seek my passion to help others, I know having such an innovative tool as the iPad at my accessibility would open doors of opportunity to network and build my business from the group up. Having an iPad would create a mind-blowing amount of new ways to network in helping to grow my business and fulfill my blazing entrepreneurial desire to better the lives of others in any way possible. Being able to test some of Apple’s other products, such as the iPhone, I can personally testify that Apple’s innovative products are designed to make life much easier in methods of carrying out daily activities. You can look up things in the blink of an eye and network to share information with others that can be useful to them. An iPad is one step further to helping my daily operations, as I work to build my MA business, become simplistic and tremendously time saving. It really is a device than can simplify the way we do things every day.
  
  The iPad is an innovative piece of technology that I know I can use for countless activities. It is great for creating quick documents and giving one on one presentations-like to show to the business-as well as being able to show videos, provide information, and illustrate to others just how easy it is to shop through my online web portal. And with a simple flip of the iPad, I would be able to show others exactly what I’m conveying instead of having to explain in words. It would be a perfect tool in showing the Isotonic line of products and their characteristics as well as any other product with a few simple taps of the finger. Because this piece of technology can do all this and more, with it readily accessible I would be able to now show the business even more effectively. I would not just be able to paint a picture for potential clients anymore, but this tool would allow me to draw the picture out for them. This piece of technology is so innovative, that other companies like HP are trying to render their own versions of the iPad to keep up with Apple in their leadership to innovation for the future. Therefore, I understand the power behind the image of Apple products, and when mixed with the image of MA, it is a lethal combination for influence in leaving no doubt in a potential clients mind that they need to also get on board with MA to experience a life-changing opportunity of their own.
  
  Apple provides to their customers as MA provides to its customers in meeting the needs of the end consumer by tailoring products to better the everyday lives of the people. The iPad is a prime example of this by Apple, as it is a tool that can truly make every aspect of not only mine, but the daily activities of anyone else available at one electronic source that can be accessed at any time. As the iPad evolves into the future, like the MA business, I believe it will become a tool of limitless possibilities that will make our everyday’s lives as simplistic as it gets, without another individual doing the work for you. It’s not just about making money, it’s about leaving a positive impact in this world and knowing you did something to change it for the better, and the satisfaction that comes along with.
  
  An iPad would simplify my daily routine is so many ways, as I network to grow my business, that I can’t even list them all. Just even having the iPad is a conversation started I’ve found with people that already own them. It would even simplify my objective in sharing the MA business as one conversation can quickly lead to another. Being able to use the iPad to show any and every aspect of the business to others on the spot creates an advantage, as using such an innovative piece of technology would most certainly engage attention and leave others wanting to know more.
  
  Having an entrepreneurial desire-this slim, convenient and innovative, fast processing, easy to use, and extremely portable piece of cutting edge technology-would be perfect even when traveling, as I would be able to now share the business with visual that can be opened with merely a few finger taps in demonstration of my purpose, anywhere I go. With a battery life of ten hours, such a novel tool would allow me to go about building my business and provide ease on a daily basis without having to worry about recharging it during the day. Being able to take notes and write things down electronically in a moments notice will most certainly ensure that not a single customer’s need will be forgotten. Being able to show the business plan electronically at any time necessary provides for a one up situation in business and sales. The iPad would truly be an asset to have in building my entrepreneurial and professional image in association with MA.
  
  I believe the iPad is an amazing piece of technology that can completely change how MA distributors can go about showing the business at a moments notice without having to carry around assortments of copies or pamphlets as visuals. Having all your resources at one electronic destination on a long lasting battery of ten hours is a combination leading to a positive and professional image in MA. I feel confident that the iPad is a piece of technology that can truly be utilized for any MA distributor, and therefore reason, it is a piece of equipment every MA distributor should have to effectively show the business.
  
  Gaining an iPad would help me effectively organize and grow my MA business both now and in the future, in a way many may never know how. JR, I greatly appreciate and value your kindness, which can touch and change the life of another, such as mine, by this giveaway. Thank you for the opportunity.

  JR, I feel I should own an iPad because I have a older phone that I can not see the numbers to text on , also my #6 key sticks or doesn't work at all. I hate to say this but it went swimming in the "head" while at a UBP with David & Vera Sacks. I would use the iPad to make appointments with my web center instead of going home and checking the computer to make sure the appointment was available and then getting back to the client. Thank you JR.

  JR,
  My fiance and I are getting married soon and I would love to give her an iPad as a wedding gift. She works at home constantly but her hands hurt from all the typing. It would make her daily routine so much easier because the touch screen is better on her wrists. Thank you JR, and hope you consider me!

• Comment Link 26 April 2010 posted by Ron Hill

  First let me say what an amazing giveaway this is, you have to be the first to be giving away an iPad!!!!
  
  Now to complete the entry to win the iPad
  
  1) The reason I should own an iPad is because I am a huge Apple fan and I utilize the technology and features on their products daily to grow my unfranchise business on the go. (example: ma mobile app to sign up new preferred customers to earn cashback, and immediate social network sharing of the latest marketamerica.com updates on the facebook and twitter apps) I pretty much live on social network sites, it’s an incredible way to grow your business and leverage technology to create ongoing residual income. Of course the unfranchise system and marketamerica.com is the only system in the world making this possible, its a concept that has to be seen to believe but it is truly an idea whose time has come. And of course what better way to share marketamerica.com, ma cashback, ma toolbar, ma connect, and beingjrridinger.com then on the sleek, high resolution display of the iPad. I also promise to not leave the iPad on a barstool in California for a stranger to find :)
  
  2) I will use the iPad primarily for sharing marketamerica.com with new customers to show them how they can shop, save, search, and share ma cashback. Since it is slim its easy to have with you at all times and since almost all locations provide wireless access now, it’s never been easier to share information about the portal with everyone. With its awesome video display, I will utilize it to share the unfranchise business plan video from the matv tab on marketamerica.com (it’s so much nicer now that we can make the videos full screen) Along with this, sharing the plan through the slideshow online will be easier than ever. I also plan on downloading all the ma audios to the built in ipod to have them with me at all times. It will also be great to take along to ma events to take notes on as it is the size of a standard notebook. And of course in the downtime, it’s an entertainment toy like no other!!
  
  3) It will simplify my daily routine in a couple of ways. First, as I have stated a few times, it’s so slim and sleek that I can have it with me at all times. Although I have my iPhone on me almost all the time, its not practical when it comes to sharing the Unfranchise Business System and all of the features of marketamerica.com due to its small display. It contains video options, ipod options for ma audios, a bookstore, photos (to share event photos with potential partners), ma mobile app, facebook app, twitter app all in one mobile device. Since the screen is obviously larger than an iPhone, it will allow for more effective and efficient unfranchise business activity (example showing the plan, registering new customers for ma cashback, sharing all of our social media platforms, sharing ma tv videos, sharing digital powerline and the ma newsstand). The increased battery life will help tremendously with this as well as it wont be a factor if there are no available power outlets. It will also allow me to multi-task with emails and voicemails and the ability to run multiple apps simultaneously with the new OS 4.0 software coming soon. It’s a complete business building tool literally in your hands. It will streamline my business building activity by providing me with a machine that can do it all!!
  
  Thanks JR for the opportunity to own one of the most anticipated pieces of technology of my lifetime. Above and beyond what you have do by providing my family with an amazing opportunity to control our financial future with unfranchise business system, this is just another way you are reaching out to help entrepreneurs achieve their dream and goals. From the bottom of my heart we want you to know that you are a true pioneer and inspiration to everyone who has dared to dream and dared to create what was thought of as impossible. I have taken your advice and each day I vow to keep growing. God Speed

  1. Why should you own an iPad? I am a new distributor (Q date March 30, 2010) who travels 120 miles to the J.O.B. and I need the compact and highly portable wi-fi access of an iPad to stay connected to my new un-franchise business. I just can't get enough of my Market America portal and I feel a burning need to be read...y to be "go now" all the time.
  2. What will you use it for? I will use it as a tool to achieve my goals and a 6 figure residual income in less than 2 years. I would also use it for quick and easy access to information for my Market America business. Have a need? Let me show you a solution (out comes the iPad). What is an internet product broker? Here, let me show you how my portal works. Did you say that you have been looking for a better way? Let my MATV show you a business plan that can change your life. Oh and I almost forgot, on-line shopping...oh the IBVs that are going to flow your way.
  3. How do you believe it will simplify your daily routine? Well, I believe the Internet has us wired for success. Having access to my Market America portal, literally within my grasp at all times, would be FANASTIC. Since I do not have an iPad, I cannot personally testify to the advantages of the available apps for efficient and effective leverage of my time, but that is what I am hoping for. Is there a Market America app to make my life easier? With Apple as a partner store, I think we should get in on some major R & D.

  Why should I own an iPad?
  
  I am a full-time college student and an UnFranchise Owner. I own an iMac, which I love, but I lack the mobility. I am a commuter, so once I am on campus, I stay on campus and do work rather than back at my house with my 6 roommates. Today, being the week before finals, there were no computers available. This is a problem I frequently run into on a campus of 10,000+ students.
  
  What will I use it for?
  
  Not only will I able to complete school work more efficiently, I can download books to my (potential) iPad at a cheaper cost of buying them in paper and not worry about forgetting them at home. And since the entire campus is wireless, I will be able to show the plan, whenever and wherever I want! Like previously stated, I have 6 roommates and trying to organize a business presentation to show the plan on my iMac which is a desktop computer in my bedroom, isn't exactly professional! I frequently resort to the flip book, but being able to use an iPad in any location would significantly increase my presentation and confidence!
  
  How will an iPad simplify my daily routine?
  
  Being a college student and always on the go, I will be able to be up-to-speed with the world! School-wise: I can take/type notes in my lectures directly onto my iPad instead of writing them in class and later typing them into a study guide. I also won't have to stress over not finding a computer to research and do papers in the library. I can sit in a study booth, drinking my MochaTonix, and stay on top of my work! Business-wise: I can take my business with me EVERYWHERE. I can show the plan, access my back office whenever I need to, and send/answer e-mails on-the-go! These are some of the things that can't be accomplished on the desktop I have now.
  
  Great idea JR!

  I work at home and I'm constantly on the computer working. Practically 24/7. It's vert rewarding but painful on my hands at the same time. I will use the iPad instead of a computer because it's lightweight, portable, and easy to use! It will make my daily routine so much easier because my hands win hurt and I can get my work done faster.

  I need to own an Ipad. A device like this would definitely simplify things for me both as a college student and as an employee.
  
  As a Marketing major, it would help with taking notes, doing research, checking email, finishing assignments, etc, and all this without having to borrow a friend's laptop or going to a computer lab.
  
  In my job, I have to market and outreach for the program I represent. With an Ipad, I can give presentations to small groups with flare... sharing visual aids, slideshows, facts, and statistics to recruit for my program instead of having to print and copy papers to pass out (going green).
  
  The Ipad is a great marketing tool... and I intend to use it to make myself and my program more marketable.
  
  Thanks for the contest JR.

  Aloha JR,
  First, let me thank you and our corporate team for all of your hard work and leadership. I am amazed and trilled at all of the new and exciting opportunities in technology that Market America continues to expand in. Using technology, including Facebook, has helped me gain new customers and distributors! I love Market America and Apple!
  1. Why should I own an iPad? I must admit that I was planning on getting an iPad in the next few months. It is important for me and my Market America business to be on the cutting edge. And my family and friends actually expected me to have and be using the ipad already. I would be fun to be able to share with my friends that not only does Market America offer great products and residual income, but the president of our company, JR Ridinger even gave me an iPad for making a comment on his blog.
  2. I will use the iPad both for business and personal use:
  For business, I will use it to check my email, to listen to ma audios, place orders with customers on my portal, show the business plan, and much more. I will be able to assist my customers on my portal when they would like to "chat."
  I will load business apps like mint.com, keynote, pages, and numbers to be able to create and show people how my ma business is technology driven w a personal touch.
  Social networking is amazing in building relationships. I will continue to use the iPad to do that. (FB, twitter,etc)
  
  For personal use, I will use it to load my audios and personal growth books. (It will be much easier to bring along an iPad than the three current self-help books I am currently reading.)
  
  I will use it to pay my bills online!
  
  I have three children, one of which is a 7yr old boy, I will use it to load games for him to play. Or Iʻll load movies for any of my kids to watch. Streaming netflix (of which I get IBV) is going to be amazing to see.
  
  I will have my calendar and daily planner available instantly on the iPad.
  
  I will use the maps feature too. These roads here in Hawaii are long and almost all start with the letter "K." :)
  
  3. Finally, the iPad will simplify my life by allowing me to be connected to both my business and personal life when needed. If I have a few minutes waiting for a prospect or my kids to be finished from school, I could jump on the iPad and take care of personal or business items. (Like those listed above) As a single father, every minute is scheduled and to carry around a device that can do all of what I mentioned would definitely take the weight off (Pun intended.)! :)

  It is all about business
  
  JR, please allow me to answer the question no 2 first. What will you use it for?
  
  When I go out to meet an HP, I need:
  - an Internet ready laptop,
  - able to run the applications simply by pushing a button or a key,
  - it is light weight and
  - has at least a 2-hour battery life.
  
  The minimal applications I need are:
  
  - a browser,
  - power point,
  - Excel spread sheet,
  - video player, and
  - able to connect to a projector.
  
  Some people call iPad as a keyboardless office. But in its first version, like JR has described in his previous posting, I'm not sure if it's ready for all these applications that I need. Thus in that sense, it would not help me in my business if I have an iPad now. I think a $300 netbook with 160 GB Harddrive or a comparable price lightweight laptop with DVD/CD player would do the job better despite they are slightly heavier than an iPad.
  
  1.Why should you own an iPad?
  
  If you ask me to go and buy one, I will definitely say 'No!' I love to compare iPad as the bikini girl in sunny Miami Beach. I will stick to my wife, eh, my laptop than run for the iPad at this time. But wait a moment. It's all about business. An iPad costs $499, but with JR's autograph on it, Priceless! Guest what? It's all about business. If I win it, please pardon me, JR, I will put it on eBay, then go out to buy a netbook and use the profit to pay for the data dataplan. Then when I have earned enough money later, I will buy the 2nd or 3rd version of iPad when it is ready for business, and come to apologize to you, JR for selling this iPad on eBay, then I will ask for your autograph to my new iPad in person. That's the Priceless one that I will keep with me.
  
  3.How do you believe it will simplify your daily routine?
  
  Please don't get me wrong. iPad can be used to show MA or NutraMetrix catalogs and it's handy and very impressive. JR has listed all the positive thing about iPad in his previous posting together with the points that need improvement. As for email, FB, Twitter and other social media? Yes. But we can do that without an iPad, right? So at this moment, the only thing I thought iPad would help me is its light weight. But I'd rather wait until it has all the applications ready before I switch from a laptop or netbook to an iPad.
  
  Thanks JR for let me join the draw even if you know I will resell it to other distributors for a higher price. :-)

  1)Why should you own an iPad?
  The number one reason is it's a E-Reader. The Ipad have access to apple book library and most importantly, it's the only device on the market besides Kindle that can read Kindle books (Kindle format e-books). now that's the most complete e-book library you can have, and ofcourse in color.
  The second reason is it's Performance, I have (i think most of us do) tried the Ipad in the apple store, this thing is zippy, with it's brand new chip it's very quick and smooth in accessing anything you do, photo, music, email, social networking, safari AND, a beautiful and good size appointment book.
  And lastly, the addition of 'Iwork' application can let me edit, read powerpoint, word, excel in PC or MAC format anytime anywhere, and most importantly, very fast.
  The third reason is its video capability, stream videos, Netflix application, this thing is a anywhere video machine.
  
  2)What will you use it for?
  The number task that i will use the Ipad for is to replace my entire "recruiting Kit', i carry my recruiting kit with me everyday and trust me it's heavy. The Ipad is the greatest alternative to replace my entire recruiting kit that includes: Flip chart, Annual report, tax times, motive/ma catalog, powerline, Haute Living(this thing in digital is a huge plus), blank papers for me to draw and/or show anything, appointment book (huge, for 2vs1 appointment, can't live without it), laptop which is use to show 'ma' portal, 'ma'DVD video(physical copy and on the maTV), 'ma' audios(it's also a ipod). All of those tools are what i carry every single day, and the Ipad can replace ALL of those tools into one device, it's just very very efficient. but at the same time i do also carry physical copy of some tools to borrow to prospects so that they can return it back to me for another appointment.
  Second biggest thing i will use is what i've mentioned on the last question E-reader, i was hoping to have one device to carry all my heavy books and especially i can carry them anywhere anytime. I mean literally i can bring 100lb of books in one device, it's incredible, and ofcourse i mention before Kindle books too and in color, just one of a kind.
  third thing i will use it for is editing my documents, at first i don't think this thing can edit documents, but later i found out the Iwork app which support powerpoint, Excel, Word across both Mac and PC platform, and it's fast!
  
  3)How do you believe it will simplify your daily routine?
  Like a mention above, it simplify my everyday market america task, listen to market america audio, reading books, newspaper, social networking, unfranchise management, document editing in a hurry, looking at my appointment book to see everyday goal, using it for prospecting, do 2 to 1, or just simply show off the market america portal when people around me are exited about the Ipad of both(attract prospects to approach me). Bring the business with me anytime anywhere in one device is just something that's greatly efficient, and im highly recommend this device.

  Thank you for the opportunity to obtain such a great piece of technology.
  1.Why should I own an iPad? I should own an iPad because I believe that it will help me manage both work and home better.
  
  2.What will you use it for? I will use it to manage my work life better by reducing the amount of notepads and sticky notes that I have laying around and/or stuck to my desk. I will be able to remote into our systems with LogMeIn Ignition without having to remember to take home my company laptop. I won't have to wait for it to boot up when I am on a tech support call from work. I will use it to keep a better handle on my work and home calendars. I will use it to read our son some of the classic stories that my wife and I grew up with. I will use it to rekindle my love of comic books. I will let my wife use it as a cook book. She is a wonderful cook and baker and on those long car rides to visit family my wife and son can watch movies on it in the back seat.
  
  3.How do you believe it will simplify your daily routine? I believe it will simplify my life by enabling me to keep more of the needed organizational tools I need for home and work in one device. This is a must have for any IT admin daddy in today's world.

  1.Why should you own an iPad? I should have an iPad so that I can better balance my home and work lives. I can't have one without the other and I can't focus all or nothing on one or the other.
  
  2.What will you use it for? I will use it to keep better tabs on my personal and professional schedules. I will not have to remember to take my company laptop home every night. I will use it along with LogMeIn Ignition to remote into our company systems when needed without having to wait on my work laptop to boot. I will use it read our son some of the classic stories that we remember our parents reading to us. I will use it to rekindle my love with comic books.
  
  3.How do you believe it will simplify your daily routine? I believe it will simplify my routine by enabling me to care more of the information that I need on a daily basis with me in one single device.

  I should own an iPad because it is top shelf tech and extremely intuitive. Not only would it help me with my business (the ma-App) but it would be an integral part of keeping my business fun. I would have my book-reader and networking platform all in one convenient package.

  What's that?
  -It's my new iPad...it's how I run and manage my Unfranchise business.
  
  Unfranchise business? What's that?
  -[launches browser to webportal] It's a product brokerage and internet marketing business...I help my customers to find the products they want and need. My customers earn Cashback rewards when they buy Market America branded products [swiping through featured brands/categories] or from our numerous partner stores. [scrolling through alphabetical list]
  
  Hey! I recognize a LOT of those store and I am really interested in health and nutrition. So, you earn money helping people shop and you help them save money too?
  -Yes. And I can do it part time until I decide to fire my boss.
  
  Hmm...I hate my boss. How can I find out more about this Unfranchise business?
  -Here, watch this short presentation [launches video].
  
  Wow! That was amazing! That JR guy is quite a visionary! I've got a couple of friends who would love this company. Can you show them what you showed me?
  -Tuesday afternoon or is Friday night better [brings up calendar to schedule, then contacts to get prospects info for follow up]
  
  P.S. It will also be great for taking notes at Convention-with a battery life of 10 hours, I wouldn't be looking for a power outlet or lugging some backup laptop batteries.

  J.R., J. R., J.R.,
  To participate in this contest, I first had to sit down and imagine myself winning the iPad. I had a conversation in my head with you that made it real as I envisioned myself accepting the iPad.
  Then, I had to go backward to find what would make that happen. I had to get into your mind. I contemplated and I meditated. I became afraid, and then I got really really scared.
  Getting into your mind is no easy task. However, I believed that if I followed the process I do with most things of which I am afraid, I would be alright.
  So, after I read and reread the two articles "Why should I get the iPad" and "Giveaway:Win an Apple iPad" and re-reading the ma Newline about the contest, I began.
  J.R. you have a language I have not met before. It is a new language. Not to you perhaps, but for me it kept me very busy over the last few days. For example, what is iteration.
  Iteration...the action or process of iterating-or repeating. Hmmm...I had to reiterate (learn by doing) how to go to your facebook page, become a fan, share the blog beingjrridinger on facebook and when I became fearful and overwhelmed, I called professional services at Market America and received a walk through of how to do that. (thanks Angela) I respect the teaching aspect of what you were doing here. So, I had a moment. Very good J.R. :)
  I didn't know what it meant URL (optional) and received instruction how to cut and paste. I did so well in fact that I am able to do it again and again...and iteration. Thanks also to Laura at professional services.
  Monetization had great references for gas, traffic and asset monetization, however I continued to search until I found the application that applied to computer technology. I found monetization to mean "creating profit from your local (or global-my interjection) marketing campaign. Then I really got excited as I read 8 ways to monetize...service sellers, products, affiliate programs, sitesell, google adsense, google cash, newsletters, and e-books/seminars. What a light bulb moment. I got into your history of the creation of Market America and your vision as a global internet presence and I was flooded with the memories of the early conventions of the 1990s when you would say over and over again, "one day we will be a virtual business on the internet" That I found the business sense in that by looking up the word you used is astonishing to me. No small help from google searches here.
  Not to be left there, I noticed the word entreprenuralism. I was sure it was a misprint, as I love to find misprints when I read, but the challenge was not to be right, but to get into your mind. So I looked it up. Surprise! A new word for me...defined as a person who organizes, operates, and assumes the risk of a business venture. Hey!!! that's you!!! and it can be me!!! I felt so good. I have met a part of your mind that I have not cultivated on my own. I reference ma Newline Issue 46.10 dated Friday, April 23,2010 11:33 am "While you're entering the contest, be sure to go inside the mind of Market America's President and CEO, JR Ridinger, as he shares his take on technology, success and entrepreneurialism!" (here I copy and pasted...a new skill developed to participate in this contest. hooray for me! :) )
  Why should I own an iPad. New challenges frighten. Taking part in this contest was frightening. Yet I know that one of the best anti-aging weapons we possess is learning something new. So I want to become a part of the "tech" world. (and I wouldn't mind reading comic books with my 11 year old grandson and playing car racing games with my 3 year old grandson)
  I love the English language. And because I am thirsty to learn, I am always looking up words. There are so many words I do not know, and when I think I know something, it stops me from growing. I am always writing and studying and looking up the roots of words in my Greek, Latin, and Sanskrit dictionaries (yes, I am a nerd) It is always so surprising to find that a word doesn't necessarily mean what I think it means.(Which has been driven home to me again in participating in this contest) The more I dive in, and then define the definition in the root languages, I feel full of knowledge which can then be developed into wisdom. I would use the iPad to journal and continue the search of etymology of words.
  It will help relieve me of the papers, scraps, snippets, cuttings, marginal notes, and swatches of papers I have lying all over my house, in my car, in boxes in storage. Even the margins of my Soduko puzzle book (the BIG ONE) is burdened with my inspirational thoughts and musings with words.
  I could carry it with me and jot down almost anything and have the added benefit of all the online dictionaries at my disposal. In my heart of hearts, my deepest dream is to be an author. I have had amazing things happen in my life that I want to record for my family, and if they were interested, for my community, even my world.
  I heard on television when the Apple iPad came out that one consumer complained that although the base price was low, by the time he added his applications it ran into the thousands of dollars. Tonight, I went to Apple Store at our shop partners site on MarketAmerica.com and located my nearest retail Apple Store at the Walden Galleria in Buffalo, New York. I called and questioned the pricing and the salesman told me that was a myth. So, he had assuaged my fear of price. When I told him your concern regarding the $15-$30 monthly fee, he told me there has to be a price to hit a tower and receive a signal. It made sense to me...and I believe you are right, that as popularity increases, sales go up, the subscription price may come down. I told him about the contest and asked him if there was anything he could tell me about the product that would help you better make up your mind about whether or not to get off the fence. He told me that the unique quality of the product makes touching it necessary to really appreciate what it can do. He asked me to come in and I told him I was on the last leg of preparing for the contest, and that I am going to win it and when I do, I will go in and he can teach me.
  I called the Lincoln Road Apple Store in Miami and told them who you were and that you were promoting a contest for the iPad. I spoke to Megan, so if you go in there, tell her I said "Hi" I indicated that if you had any concerns about functionality, it would be great if you could visit their store and they assured me they would be happy to assist you.
  As a final note, I was moving in and out of windows applications to look up words and copy and paste and all that went into preparing this document, and I made a mistake, J.R. and accidentially closed the window after I had written this whole thing out without any specific format written in longhand. So I will tell you that I reiterated the information and by so doing have a pretty fair grasp of what I set out to learn for this article.
  I have heard it said of you that you are the Henry Ford of the internet. I thank you for the opportunity to increase my skill set. I am not on the internet as a way of life, so for me this was truly a challenge. I hope you have enjoyed another perspective of getting off the fence.
  Have a great day...and J.R... Keep Growing :)

  Initially, I didn’t get what the hype about the iPad was all about. I didn’t really think it was fulfilling any need or that it falls in a niche between an iPhone and a netbook. It is quite impractical to be used as a phone and does not have the same capabilities as a netbook – no usb ports, no content creation (no camera/video capabilities), no flash support, no multi-tasking, etc. However, what I am amazed by (as always) is Apple’s marketing capabilities. They have created this product, which might be seen as a luxury and will soon turn it into a necessity. Where there is no real need, they will create a need and hence, demand.
  My apprehensions about the iPad were mostly swept away after using it. One can never discredit the ‘coolness’ factor when it comes to Apple’s products and the same applies to the iPad. It is a very sleek device and is incredibly easy, fun and cool to use. The most important feature of the iPad is its digital reader. Even though the iPad has constantly been criticized because one cannot create content with it, as a college student, it is equally important to be able to access content. The iPad can do this, by granting me access to all my textbooks, and other interactive content at the click of a button. Furthermore, in a world that is driven by technology, I believe that in order to be successful, one must never stop learning or growing, and must constantly stay abreast of the latest trends. Again, the iPad can help me do exactly this. At the same time, it will make my daily routine much simpler by eliminating the hassle of carrying around a heavy backpack with a lot of books. To all the iPad critics, I will say this – don’t knock it, till you use it and if you must, wait till the next-gen iPad comes out. That’s probably what I am going to do, so maybe I can sell this iPad (if I win it :) and save up the money for when the 2nd-gen iPad becomes available :). I think the iPad is the future of education and I would really like to win it to support my education.

  Hi Mr. Ridinger,
  
  Don’t let this 3 year old boy outsmart an internet mogul like you! Go ahead and get one!
  
  Check him out!
  
  (http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=5410798&l=aaf7c509ef&id=729711795)
  
  Why should you own an iPad?
  
  Actually, I was considering Kindle but since it is being carried by Amazon.com who is not a partner store, I would settle for the Ipad and earn cash back rewards and IBV ( by purchasing accessories for it) and since Mr. Ridinger is giving it away for free with open arms I would gladly accept it and since I just signed up as a distributor 2 weeks ago, having one sure comes in handy in checking my BV’s and IBV’s.
  
  What will you use it for?
  
  I can use the Ipad to potential customers and show them my web portal and help them navigate. I am not a tech savvy nor a geek person who is into technology but having one would be a very useful tool in my new found business opportunity because of it’s numerous applications which I believe would be beneficial in helping my business grow. Hoping it would replace my old Dell Laptop which takes forever to sign on. Likewise, my little boy would love it since he sure knows how to use it and is learning a lot from it’s different applications. That’s what I call business with pleasure……
  
  How do you believe it will simplify your daily routine?
  
  For a not so hi tech person like me, I don’t have to worry on how to install the cables or where to insert the red and yellow cable wires no need to worry about hard drive, or how to connect to the internet. It comes in handy, any place where there is wi-fi I can access my web portal and check on reports and ma updates, check my emails and connect with friends and business partners. It’s so thin, and has numerous applications. What’s more it has an amazing multi touch screen.

  In using the iPad in my everyday MA business and social networking, I would be able to provide Apple with suggestions to make the next generation even better!
  
  Having an iPad would let me operate outside of my office more and move most of my operations to one place; showing the plan, listening to audios, daily reading, posting on social media, keeping track of appts, etc.
  
  It will simplify my life, just like my portal does; everything I need in one place (including my portal)! Small and light enough to carry anywhere!
  
  (In addition, my husband, after experiencing the iPad at the Apple store said, "Maybe you should want one of these for Christmas!" :-)

  Hey Jr, thank you for allowing to enter this contest. Out of all devices Apple has released over its many years, I havent owned one product. They are very expensive, and I just dont have the finances to purchase this device. I am a fan of Apple even thought I havent owned any of their products, and I would love to. I am a college student whose parents are both disabled and unemployed.
  
  The ipad is very portable which is a pro I like. Its size and shape would come in handy for when I am in Chemistry lap and need internet access for differnt Energy laws. I would also use it to simply enjoy it!
  
  If I win the ipad I believe it would simplify my daily routine significantly. I don't own a laptop, or anything to check my eamil and study using Spark Notes. I wouldnt have to fight anymore to use the lobby computers for once lol. It would save me alot of time and hassle. I also wouldn't have to work so much and save to purchase a laptop. Loans are alot to pay back.
  
  Thanks JR

  Why Should I own an iPad?
  
  Because they're like a large iPod Touch! I already use my iPhone to network and for quick sales with the MA Mobile App. It would be wonderful to have a larger screen to show products and MA with. It would also be a wonderful calendar utilizing MobileMe with Apple Computers and my phone so I always know where I'm suppose to be and when, no matter where I am!
  
  What will I use it for?
  
  Selling Isotonix! I'll carry it everywhere and it will cut down on the huge bag of products I carry with me, with a calendar, laptop and supplements. I will use it for selling and showing the plan! What a great technology for marketing.
  
  How will it simplfy my daily routine?
  
  Incredibly! It will offer a calendar, internet access with my portal and various other websites I can share to help build my business and share Market America. The best part is, it will all be in one nice package... I'll even be able to download books and read them!! Amazing!

  * Why should you own an iPad?
  - Two reasons - ease of use to get the web where ever you are and to look gadget cool
  
  * What will you use it for?
  - Look up possible businesses to approach for our web site solution which can be viewed at mawebcenters.com/cnyshops
  - Exchange emails with my prospects and customers about upcoming events and new product releases
  
  * How do you believe it will simplify your daily routine?
  - Make my communication with everyone faster and more fun.

  Dear Jr:
  I would like to recommend that you get an Apple iPad with Wi-Fi + 3G. This will maximize the iPads’ usefulness as a portable office device for creating and editing full size documents, brochures, or presentations while having the capability to transmit the document to another team member, immediately, on a priority basis, not waiting till you are near a Wi-Fi hotspot.
  
  A Wi-Fi only iPad will support GPS functions to find your current location meant to localize the information you receive from the application, however it will not support GPS applications used navigating your travel. Navigation will work fine in a 3G enabled iPad.
  
  Combat higher prices for 3G coverage by choosing a limited data plan and use it for your priority traffic only.
  
  With a Wi-Fi only iPad you can still get a sprint hotspot or convert your iPhone to be a wireless hotspot for the iPad allowing your iPad to communicate anywhere you iPhone would.
  
  Still another option is to have your iPhone work as a G3 MODEM (Modulator/DEModulator) for your iPad. It works like the Wi-Fi option but requires a cable to connect the iPad to the iPhone. The Wi-Fi connection is recommended.
  ----
  My primary internet service is in the office or at home here in Hawaii. My cell phone is on 3G
  ----
  If I had an iPad I would as a portable office in support my Market America team, maximizing its usefulness by deploying the options mentioned above.
  
  Sincerely billyghawaii

  To answer your questions:
  1)Why own an Ipad? Apple, I think has really turned the corner with their new IPad and IPod technology and it's very exciting to see them come into their own again in the extremely competitive technology marketplace. The IPod Touch was definitely revolutionary and having the supporting software programs was instrumental in their success, especially the compatability with the office and business programs, which the IPad has! The IPad is small, yet has the storage capabilities of a larger laptop, while portability of the smaller portable computers for the traveling business people, which is definitely a big plus!
  2) What would I use it for? Well between work, finishing my Master's Degree and my life.. just about everything! I am a regional director for a large Medicare Managed Care Organization, so I work a ton, I'm also an RN, so I do a ton of medical research and am also a full-time Master's degree student, plus a mother, etc. I would love to streamline my life onto one device.
  3) I would love to win the IPad to be able to compile all my data that we all need to run our busy lives into one place, which the IPad would offer! No more need for switching between your IPod, your Blackberry and hauling around your laptop and I know many of you are relating to this.. I know I'm not the only one in the airports trying to grab the appopriate device to find what I'm looking for.. and yes, I am seriously thinking of joining Market America, thanks to my ever persistent friend, Devin Shipwash.

  I should own a Ipad because it's fun and organizing my things.It's like a computer but you can carry it around easily.I would use it it for organzing my things and go online without a computer,it's the easiest way I can think of traking down and keeping my photos,videos and other things.I can show my mom's Market America web portal anytime anywhere to anyone without using her computer.

  The i-pad would simplify my life because litterally from running a region full of 15 charity chapters down to the student learning about social media marketing while they take social media marketing praticum.... to just using for the charity carwashes to do receipts and collect data for donations! I love the security level the apple platform offers! Thanks Steve! I love the power of the MPCP.... it provides use with the ability to make large donations to our charity partners! Thanks JR.... and finally thanks to evryone one at corporate including the security guard that has master the 1 to 1 relationship as he looks out for the safty of every person who works at corporate, that truely is the key to blowing up the Paid to shop program and referral fee! Pay it forward and just focus on transferring 100% of YOUR buying POWER!

  1)I should own an ipad because I like keeping up with the latest tools and it would simplify my life.
  2) I will use it for my Motives website and on the spot demonstrations of our great shopping site.
  3)Because it is so light and portable I will be able to carry it with me at all times and not have to worry about leaving my laptop in the car and getting it stolen.

  I should own an IPad because it is easy to take to anywhere all the time and it's battery can last for 10 hours.
  I will use it for showing the plan to my prospect and show our incredible shopping site with Shop.com that anyone can get paid to shop from #ma cashback program which earn upto 50%cashback and if invite friends will earn 1/2% on what people shop forever.
  I beleive that IPad can simplify my daily routine because it has the funtionality quick and easy to learn it can stay online at least 10 hours that access to Internet everywhere you go.I do not have to have a lot of devices coming along and difficult to get internet access. so I beleive that make my life easier and happier.

  I should own an iPad because I will be among the cool people who own an iPad - actually I will just be keeping up with the 21st Century to own one! I would use it to have fun doing my Market America business where ever I am. I believe it will simplify my routine by making the internet available to me during the routine parts of my day where I could make use of valuable time such as stuck in traffic or waiting in the doctor's office.

  I should own an Apple I-pad because of (1)the mobility it would give me which would allow for me to use it for keeping up with the latest information and be highly effective in (2)information sharing and prospecting. Not to mention how my daily routine can impact others because of (3)the apps and cc swipe capabilities to perform one-to-one marketing.
