Is Guard Your Place a Great Idea or is it a Scam? Research and Review of the Business and Opportunity
This article will be a GuardYourPlace Review, and will cover important information that is most often left out of Guard Your Place Opportunity presentations, as well as present my insights from over 15 years experience in the home based business industry, on the viability, and potential success the GuardYourPlace opportunity could have.
Of course, within this review, we want to evaluate and answer a prominent first question on most people’s minds: is GuardYourPlace A scam or is it a legitimate business opportunity? We will attempt to answer that question within this article by providing some relevant facts and then drawing a conclusion.
I prefer to look at certain facts in a typical review to help determine the strength of a company.
1. Unique product
2. Leadership characteristics
3. Unique Selling Proposition, IE: how powerful their marketing story will be in the market place.
Based on past experience, these three key factors will be an important guide when determining whether Guard Your Place will be a hit or a miss. On first impression, they are already a hit with the uniqueness of product as there is currently quite a buzz beginning to stir regarding the initial launch. The Guard Your Place product is really a service that allows a homeowner or business owner to visually monitor their premises remotely from where ever they are in the world via a computer or cell phone web browser.
A typical example of homeowner use might be to monitor your property while away at work or vacation, keep a watchful eye on a nanny or babysitter or to make certain your kids arrive safely home at a certain time. A business owner might monitor employees, expensive equipment or product and reduce theft. The system offers the ability to set the camera to detect motion and then send pictures instantly to you via email or text alert.
GuardYourPlace is featuring a speedy, simple and viable fix or alternative to the more complicated traditional security or video monitoring system. Guard Your Place will also let you use easy to find components such as a laptop computer, web camera and cell phone. Odds are, most if not nearly all homes and business will currently have the necessary components to get this system up and working in record time.
It makes sense, especially given a down economy, that the average person has the desire to safe-guard their family and home. Given this, the service does possess a uniqueness and useful purpose. It is time to visit leadership. Pierre Charbonneau is the Chief Technology Officer (CTO) of Guard Your Place and his input was critical in the pursuit of the program. I conducted research that shows he is also the Chairman and CEO of EGlobal Partner and is routinely involved with many charitable organizations with special emphasis towards soldiers, policemen and firemen. Feel free to research a few of important web sites, onsightsupport.org and stepupforsoldiers.org.
Granger Soward, the President of Guard Your Place, also serves as Deputy Fire Chief for Carolina Beach, NC. I find that he also has been involved in many charities and events. I was able to gain a lot of information through a web search of his name. Apparently, the leadership attitude of Guard Your Place is of a giving nature with a soft spot for those in need. Thus far, we have determined that GuardYourPlace has a specialized product and that the leadership is headed by strong character now, is there a unique selling proposition? The people at Guard Your Place inform me that they offer an affordable service and a home-based business opportunity that is designed for anyone to become involved with. So, the offer is a free trial and a low monthly fee with no contract. Subscribers can then visually monitor there home or business at any time of day. The fee is the same if you decide to market the service yourself and earn residual income. Currently, the monthly premium is set at $19.95 per month.
It appears that the service has tremendous value and is a real bargain considering traditional alternative security and video systems. In addition, GuardYourPlace offers a nice opportunity to earn residual income, I can’t think of any other security services offering that currently.
