To be perfectly honest, and I can be because I'm not selling you anything (wink) the term dealer incentive program is a little more broad than getting cash or prizes for buying something. In a very real sense a dealer incentive program can bolster sales, reduce sales costs, reward loyalty to your brand and help launch new products.

Why Do You Want to Work From Home, Anyway? (be sure to stay balanced)

Ask any one person what they want from life. Most will give the same answer. Most people just want to spend time with the ones they love and enjoy their lives to the fullest degree possible. Having money is nice; having fancy homes and cars and other luxuries is nice; but I think you'll find that most people are more interested in having meaningful loving relationships with family and friends than they are in being rich.

People wanna be surrounded by friends and family; the ones they love.
