Bruce A. Berman, Author and President of the Berman Investment Group, stated, "I believe giving away copies of my business development products will give me a jump-start on my mission. By offering free business plan review we create a real win win scenario, The business plan writer gets his ideas reviewed by professionals for free and we get to look for opportunities that we can participate in. I also want to introduce people to the vast array of other wealth and business building products I offer. There is no question this free product offer is competing with my own distribution channels; for example, my book sells for $26.96 on Walmart.com (NYSE:WMT) as well as the entire Berman Differential(TM), which is available on Yahoo! Shopping (Nasdaq:YHOO) and eBay (Nasdaq:EBAY). Even though this offer will momentarily cut into our sales through our distribution channels, in the long term, I believe the people that take advantage of our free offer will come back to us for all their business development needs."
