In July, 2007, a lawsuit was filed by Henry and Sue Skaggs naming Bill and Peggy Britt, Paul and Leslie Miller, Rocky Covington, Kevin and Beth Bell, and Britt World Wide as defendants. The suit alleges that the Skaggs, having developed a software system to allow for direct order fulfillment of tools to their downline, recevied approval from Britt to continue the development of the software program for eventual rollout to all of BWW. During this time, the Skaggs state that they carried the burden of the development costs. According to the lawsuit, Bill Britt stated in 2005 that the program would not be rolled out across BWW. The Skaggs then claim they were de-edified by their upline. The suit alleges breach of contract, racketeering, and intentional interference with economic relations.

Success Story

from http://www.bww.com

Starting in his last year of college, Paul Miller was offered several opportunities to pursue an independent business, but the timing was just not right. Paul was finishing his football and baseball career at the University of North Carolina, a career that included appearances at the Peach Bowl and Gator Bowl; selection as All-ACC Quarterback; participation in the Coaches’ All-American Game; and being chosen as the ACC’s first recipient of the Brian Piccolo Award. After being selected to the All-ACC Academic Team, Paul enrolled in a joint Law/MBA program at UNC, intending to pursue a legal career. Twice while in law school, Paul was invited to attend an introductory business seminar, but his sights were firmly set on becoming an attorney. After graduation, Paul joined a law firm. Paul was again provided an opportunity to attend a formal business presentation, given by an old friend, but he was still quite skeptical. “I went to four meetings and a weekend-long business seminar before finally beginning my own business," Paul remembers. “But looking back, that was a real benefit, to be able to build my business at my own pace. As my own boss, there was no one giving me quotas to fill or deadlines to meet.” Still, the first two years of business were "internal growth" years.

"It was one struggle after another," Paul adds. "There were financial struggles, fears to overcome, bar exams to pass, strangers to meet, and products to sell."

By remaining upbeat, staying steady, and not giving up, Paul was able to leave the legal profession, and has been able to devote his full-time efforts to building the business.

Paul credits the BWW support system for helping him overcome his early struggles as a business owner. “The business system created a roadmap that can be followed very easily. Whenever there were questions or challenges, I had business mentors right there to give advice, based on their own experience. That kind of experience is invaluable, and now, in turn, I am able to advise people who are just getting their own businesses started. Anyone, with hard work, willing to learn how to build it, can make this business work.”
