WHY CRESTCOM?
Tens of thousands of people wake up each morning not wanting to go to work. They
may be uncertain about their job security, tired of office politics or maybe
they were unfairly passed over for a promotion. Still others have difficulty
dealing with their boss or colleagues. Some are just ambitiously dissatisfied.
They are tired of making other people wealthy and they would like to be their
own boss.
The difficulty for the majority of these people is finding a career opportunity
which allow them to maintain or increase their standard of living, while
escaping the frustrations of a typical corporate environment.
If any of these thoughts have crossed your mind, then owning a Crestcom
Franchise, the "executive level" business opportunity, just may be the
opportunity you've been looking for.

FRANCHISE TESTIMONIALS
“Crestcom’s unique end-to-end sales process and quality product is helping us
build a solid business, fast. Crestcom has presented a fantastic opportunity to
develop the skills of Managers in a fun, practical and dynamic environment and
help fill the Management Skills void allot of SME Businesses in Australia are
currently facing.”
Andy Springer, Sydney, former Consultant to Toyota Australia
There are so many advantages to being in the Crestcom business. To begin with, I
have my own business but I’m part of a large, very supportive network. Secondly,
I’m proud to be associated with the product – it really is fantastic and it
works (proof is in the repeat business I’m already getting). In addition, my
hours are flexible; I can work from anywhere and there’s an opportunity to
leverage my income. Last but not least, I achieved my first year earnings
objective in seven months so I know that the best is yet to come!
Arji Fry, Melbourne, former Managing Director, Multi-national Recruitment Firm
“Because of Crestcom, my work/life balance is way better than it used to be. My
wife lives the “corporate life”. One reason that she can take full benefits out
of her career is the fact that I am flexible time-wise. I can do all kinds of
necessary things to keep the household running (picking up the kids, doing some
of the shopping, etc.). That way, there is a nice balance in our family. We do
not have the stress that you normally find in families where both parents have
full corporate careers”
Rutger Bierens de Haan, Netherlands
“I was tired of the 60-70 hour work weeks and saw the result of Crestcom
training first hand as I put most of my management team through the training and
was amazed at the results! With Crestcom I can work from home. There are no
hassles or daily fires to put out. There are great people in the organisation
who are willing to help you succeed.”
Mike Pinto, former Managing Director, Elmer’s Products Inc, Canada
“Crestcom allows me to work out of my home, earning a high income. I am my
children’s room-mom, soccer coach and I help with my kid’s homework. All of this
while increasing my family cashflow”
Jennifer Goodrich, former Corporate Strategist, USA
“Having owned a company which employed 100 people, I was looking for a business
with few overheads and few employees. With Crestcom, I can operate the business
out of my home, either by myself or with a few associates. I have been able to
accomplish all my business objectives while spending three months a year skiing
in Colorado”
Harvey Kramer, Annapolis Graduate, Naval Officer, USA

their personnel in Crestcom training in any location worldwide where the
training is offered. This benefits Franchisees because it allows them an
opportunity to generate revenues from sales made, or training provided, by other
Franchisees, in markets that may be thousands of miles away.
