Ordinary Man – Extraordinary Results: Steve Thompson (continued)

By the end of 2004 Steve had Co-Authored a Non-Specific MLM training book designed to help anyone and everyone interested in the industry entitled “Of Course You Can, How to Build a Successful Home Based Business”. In addition to the 8 years of volunteer services in the Emergency Medical and Rescue business, finding out that Thompson created a book that would help anyone in any business further exposed him as a person committed to helping others.

After a year in the Skin Care World, Thompson moved to the excitement of MLM Travel. Travel is a huge industry and just a lot of fun. Over the next few years he became a Top 20 Money Earner in Travel. And although he loved the company he worked with, and Travel itself, a larger opportunity was about to show on his horizon.

October 2006 all of Steve’s experiences paid off when he put his education and dedication to complete use when Ambit Energy chooses him as the Founding Consultant. This time, Steve had the experience to recognize the difference between a “Start-Up” opportunity and a significant business and lifetime opportunity.

“As a service organization, our vision is to be the finest and most respected residential energy provider in the United States.” Thompson explained “We have one of the most compelling story’s ever told in the MLM Industry, we built a company, and a product first that people needed, trusted and that could deliver and THEN we built the MLM model around it.”

Steve’s desire to help others over himself led him to look at Ambit Energy as a opportunity, because it held what Thompson refers to as the NECESSARY ingredients for success at every level. Leading the way for those necessary parts is ELECTRICITY Thompson stated “Things have to get pretty bleak before someone goes without Power!” which is Steve’s way of saying MLM companies that offer lotions, potions, powers and pills work as great MLM models until economic times get hard enough, then people stop buying the ‘extras’ as he put it.

“Electricity is the perfect product to offer: everyone needs it, everyone understands it, everyone uses it every month, and everyone likes to save money. Demand for electricity is growing. And states all across the country are just beginning to open their electricity markets to competition. Natural gas is no different. In markets where Ambit Energy provides natural gas service, our Consultants can offer the same kinds of savings and benefits we offer our electricity customers”

In order to ensure the security of those he brought to the opportunity table, Thompson evaluated the management team and founders. He found that Jere W. Thompson, Jr and Chris Chambless co-founded Ambit Energy, with some specific goals in mind. In order to accomplish this goal, Jere and Chris understood through decades of previous experience that they would need to assemble the finest management team possible. They assembled a world class leadership team that included Jim Timmer CFO, John Burke CIO, Jim McFelea Senior VP Operations, each with specific and extraordinary experience that created a one of kind, unprecedented story.

Steve also wanted to ensure that people at every level was getting paid for their efforts. “Ambit Energy has one of the most lucrative compensation plans in the industry. Our plan has been carefully designed to help you earn immediate income while you build for the long term. As an Ambit Energy Consultant, there are five different ways you can earn”

Steve explained that you earn through Jump Start Bonuses, Team Builder Bonuses (important to Thompson, because this creates an environment where you are incentivized to help those you recruit), Customer Residual Income (important to Thompson, because this creates an environment where you are incentivized to help your customers), Consultant Leadership Bonuses and Customer Residual Bonuses “The compensation plan has to reward people not only for results but through the right efforts and behavior, they did it, they created a system that rewards us for both”
