The best way to use a coop is as an incentive to get your downline active. Design a monthly contest where you offer shares to those who complete their EA designation or whatever you are trying to promote for the month. Then put the winner in for that month. You can remove them the next month if you want.
Offer shares for a percentage of the cost if you want, but I've found it hard to get participation when I charge, but I do get more activity when I offer it as a contest.
The cost of giving out shares free is small compared to the benefit you get if an individual is keeping their EA.
A coop works great even if you can only afford 1 Sbuilder unit. You can send the weekly letters and other mail to anyone who joins in any level. If you have a member that isn't to keen about sending welcome letters, you can for them. You can also include any downline level in your coop and other activities.
