Who is Lightyear Wireless?
Lightyear Wireless, launched on July 29, 2008, is the 3-year-old wireless subsidiary of Lightyear Network Solutions, LLC.
Lightyear Wireless is revolutionizing the cellular industry with its No Contract, No Credit Check, No Deposit, No Hassles, No Surprises Pre-Paid wireless service. It also offers other pre-paid plans, currently at $20, $30, and $34.99, and standard Post-Paid 2-year-contract service.
Lightyear Wireless is the phone company behind its cellular service. It handles all of the provisioning of phones, customer service, and the technical details of its services. It buys airtime at wholesale from Sprint, one of the top two cellular service providers in the U.S. A recent survey ranked Sprint and Verizon tied for first place in customer satisfaction.
On June 8, 2011, Sprint & Lightyear announced a new 5-year agreement between the two, further securing and enhancing Lightyear Wireless’ cellular services.
Unlimited Wireless Plan
It’s Lightyear’s revolutionary Unlimited Wireless Plan that’s making a major impact today, along with its offer of “Free Wireless Forever”. The Unlimited Plan offers Unlimited Talk, Unlimited Text, and Unlimited Web for only $59.99 per month. Talk all you want, Text all you want, and Surf the web all you want, for one low monthly price, or free, if you refer a few friends. Currently some 303 Million U.S. Residents have a cell phone, with some 4 Billion owned world-wide. Wireless is now a $200 Billion industry. It’s expected to grow to $400 Billion by 2014.

Free Wireless Forever
Unlike any other U. S. wireless company, Lightyear Wireless offers both its customers and its representatives the opportunity to earn Free Wireless Forever, by simply referring a few friends to Lightyear’s wireless service. Only Lightyear Wireless, because they don’t do mass advertising, is in a position to offer such a program to the public.
For customers, the You + 5 = Free program lets Lightyear’s customers earn free service by referring five new customers to Lightyear, one time, and receive free wireless each month, as long as they and their referred customers are on the same or higher plan as the referrer.
For representatives, the You + 3 = Free program lets Lightyear’s representatives earn free service by referring three new customers or other representatives to Lightyear, one time, and receive free wireless each month, as long as they and their referred customers are on the same or higher plan as the referrer.
These two programs are exploding Lightyear’s customer acquisitions, leading to month after month of surpassing the previous month’s sales record.
Lightyear Wireless Business Opportunity
Like other wireless providers, Lightyear Wireless could spend hundreds of millions of dollars on advertising to gather customers, but they don’t. They know that their customers and their representatives would end up paying much more that way. Instead, they spend their marketing budget on the people who are actually using their service—their customers, both retail customers and representatives.
Lightyear uses word of mouth advertising–the most effective advertising there is–as their way to gather customers. This saves Lightyear a lot of money, since they only pay for the one ad that got results. That keeps costs low, so they can share some of their revenue with their users, offering them a way to earn free wireless forever, for a one-time effort. This is how Lightyear can provide “Free Wireless Forever” for anyone who’s willing to help spread the good news. It just makes good business sense, because it brings Lightyear lots of new customers.
So, Lightyear’s primary advertising medium is its voluntary sales force comprised of individuals who see the unique opportunity that Lightyear provides for individuals to join with Lightyear and spread the word about Free Wireless Forever, earning both immediate income for customer acquisition, and recurring income, based on overrides on the monthly service charges paid by those who are in the process of earning their free service, or simply those who choose to pay instead of refer others.
This opportunity has permitted numerous individuals to begin building a home-based business which can grow into a significant income producing machine, provided that they share the opportunity with others and build a sales force of other like-minded people who are excited about Lightyear’s unique offering to the public.
In summary, Lightyear Network Solutions, LLC, a stable, currently 18-year telecommunications leader, spawned its own wireless division, Lightyear Wireless, and is rapidly carving out its share of the ever-growing wireless industry by offering Free Wireless Forever to its customers and its representatives, as well as a business opportunity for those who’d like to own a piece of that lucrative industry.
