boomerang business model

A business model in which consumers receive a substantial portion of the profots they generate.

A website that uses a boomerang business model generates advertising revenue proportional to user traffic, then returns a portion of the profits to its users to patronize their ongoing support.

Boomerang Lead

A Boomerang Lead is the art of throwing an offer back at an unsolicited attempt to do business. Don't let that action fall flat, just throw it right back.

An example of, "Boomerang Lead" is -

Unsolicited Message: "Hey I couldn't help but notice you are breathing you should buy my stuff."
Reply: "Cool! I happen to have dictionaries to sell! I could help you with better grammar and punctuation."

Pizza Boomerang

a simple dinner request could turn into either a friendly getogether with the family or a violent attack of epic porportions. beware that boomerang pizzas are not all the same... they all are made differently with all of their, as yu can call it, "unique powers".

beware: for if they fall in the wrong hands they may be deadly.

example if it gets in the the wrong hands:

"WOAH MAN!? howd you get that scar on your forehead?"
"its a battle scar..."
"oh... like army? marines..? what happened?"
"family night...4 years ago... turned deadly...that sauce...those images...*gasp* i never saw it coming.."
"wat was coming?!"
"..the...the...p..PIZZA BOOMERANG!!!"

example if its in the right hands:

"hey wanna toss that pizza over here?"
"not THIS pizza *SHAMWOW* i got my handy dandy
PIZZZA BOOMERANG!!"
"OHMYGOD YOU GOT ONE?"
"yes. now dance."
