It's not like they are gonna lose something... But still it is hard to convince people to join some program. What do you think?

I'm guessing that most people think that their information won't be safe or that they will obtain a virus or malware. I'm not sure. Maybe some people just don't have to time to deal with those sort of things.

Hi Xygatrix, Me too never heard people will think like this...! But thanks for the info...! It is possible to happen like this too...! People use to show some legit banners and lead us to unusual places...! I'm suggesting it, But there is a possibility...!

well really some god topic to disccus on in feel it's diffuclt for the people who feel it's diffcult and if u feel u can make it then u can but the majore things need to keep in mind while refreing is need to use some good techniques to convince the people and make them very clear on what your saying and how they can benifited but still these days it's some thing diffcult becoz most of the people are joining indivisualy before we try to refer them and we are doing spam for the refres which cannot get any refrals so we need to get rid of it

Well, justcallmestan I can sum it up for you this way... Once a referral or potential referral figure out what's the true nature of what a referral really is and what they do no one really wants to be someone's else slave that is the reason it is so hard to get others to sign up under you...

hello stan, Before i tell you the reason, let me just tell you a story. after joining mylot last year, it was hard for me to do alot because no body seemed to have been helping me. until i realized that the person who was first adding me to his account was my referee and i got so upset because i didn't knew i became his referral. and did nothing. then, after that he sends me another referral link and i toss it out of his face response. now, why on earth did i do that, HE DIDN't HELP me when i was just starting, that made me furious. just like a few of my friends who asked me to join under them, that i eventually told one that no more and I've had it, then i got also on another friend for asking me for to be his ref. bu that changed when HE was voluntering to be a referral. eventually we exchanged refs and he became active on the site and not me, because it was about an affiliate program or something.

You must get them first.In order to make them believe to You.A trully marketer usually give a free stuff that can help per member.While what IM doing right now is use Facebook to make my list.Make a group in there and try to help what they need to.It is need a pasion before we can get them.

The answer I get when I ask someone to sign up is, "You want me to sign up so I can make YOU some money?" Like that's so bad. I'd like to let everyone in on a little secret....you've been making money for other people ALL your life!!! Most likely it was someone you didn't like.

well lemme tell you one thing every one likes to get somethig fore free.. but at the same time every one hate to give way anything fore free. .. the same thing applies here too... most people hate the fact that when we join as a referral to some one they will earn some money free because of us.. and belive it or not every one hates that...

Some people are selfish, Maybe they don't want to increase others' income, even if they won't lose someting. you have to hide your referral link by some ways , such as redirect. I hope my answer can satisfy you. by the way, I don't want to be others' refferal too.
