I have invited my friends to join me with my online job. Most of them are willing to join and earn extra money during their free time. My problem is that most of them can not even start working because of several reasons, e.g they can not log in, they don't know what to do and a lot more reasons. I have been flooded with questions on how to do this and that. Being a permanent employee, there are times that I can not attend to their queries which maybe the reason some of them can not work or some just quit working. Even if some sites are claiming that special skill is not needed in order to work, I doubt it. Exploring online world is a special skill for us already. Please give me suggestion as to how I could address these problem right now. You opinions and advices are greatly appreciated.

Hi, I am also working online only on mylot. I am enjoying this site. Sometimes I also feel that I should work on some other sites so that I can earn extra money. But Every time I avoid to join new sites. Some sort of fear is in my mind. I think I can't work on more than one sites effectively. So it would be better to concentrate on one site.

Maybe you could create a blog about how to use the site or something. It will really help your friends and it will also help you since you will gain a lot of active referrals. Hope this could help. Happy mylotting!

Thank you savagecabbage for this suggestion. Actually, my real problem is that I don't have much time to do these things. I already created a blog but I can not update it.

Usually, earning online takes a lot of time and effort. It's not just a simple working and earning. It also takes a lot of understanding about how it all works. A common problem for people who are new to online earning is that they expect immediate results. Sometimes some people don't read rules and F.A.Q. whenever they're in a new site and they expect their referrers to explain everything to them and then they expect everything will be easy but it's not.

That's really true! Some of my referrals always asked me what to do next. Although it's just okay for me to explain but there are times that I can not because of my job which is equally important to me.

Hi Aries, I think when we all had experienced this during the early part of our internet business. We too have doubts if there's really money in the internet. We too, had lots of questions to ask about certain sites, how to do it, how to make more money, how things should be done, etc. And many times, I'm sure that many people out there (who eventually becomes our friends) help us explaining how things should be done. Now that we had gained experience, I think its our time to return the favor by helping others who were just starting in this business. Sometimes, they can be really annoying, but I think at one point we too becomes annoying to others. I think all you had to do is to devote sometime explaining to these annoying new comers the in's and out's of this business. By doing so, you will surely earn the credibility which helps you earn more later.

Whenever we get into something, there's always a fear of failing. You cant blame your friends because they may feel this way. They may think that it is not worth their time and effort. It's up to you to give them assurance and motivate them after all you are the one who invited them. Everything will be alright. Good Luck!

Hello jvincent! Thank you for the reply. I know part of the problem came from me. I just don't have enough time devoted for the marketing. Oh, how I wish I could still have more time. There are also some who can follow the steps online, but others really have a problem with it. You know, we are not that expert on matters like this. I've been trying to write a blog that will guide them. I hope this will work.

I admire you for having the desire to make extra money online. It's one area that most people doesn't seem to notice. Or it may be that they are not educated yet about online earning. As you stated, you found out some of the reasons like they don't know exactly what to do. You can address that by coming up with a tutorial whether video or in text. That can help. The problem is that they didn't have yet the desire to make money online. If they do, they can always make a search for themselves. What programs are you doing online? Care to share? Thank you Aries.

In fact it is not easy to earn online. First, there are many scams and it is difficult to find honest earning websites. Second, usually these honest earning websites don't offer a very well paid. Some people are not interested in earning such a little money. But you can't earn anything since you don't make efforts. This is why many people find it hard to earn online. I love China

In fairness to my friends, the eagerness learn is there but since I can not assist them personally, they don't have the guts to learn by themselves. They are afraid to commit mistake. That is how I assess the situation. Thanks for the time youless. I like your profile. It's soo cute!

I think that one of the main reasons that people fail to earn money online is because they don't have the drive to put enough work in to be able to earn the money. One of the things that I have learned in my time of earning online is that nothing happens fast, and you have to work hard to build up your portfolio before you're able to earn anything near the amount that people seem to expect to earn. If you start trying to earn whilst thinking that you're going to earn a fortune then you're going to be demotivated by not earning as much.

They are motivated by that wrong perception of earning online and after several attempts and doesn't see the results, they quit. I admit it I am very new to this kind of job. But I'm sure nobody invited me. I look for it. That's maybe the reason why though I was scammed for so many times, I never give up. I keep on searching for the real one. That's when I found myLot.

For me, if there's a will there is always a way. No buts and ifs. Maybe they are not really interested because if someone is interested on something, he will do the hard work just to learn that something. By the way, if I may ask you, besides from mylot, what other online job are you referring to? I am interested. LOL.

It takes a lot of time to convince someone of a real online opportunity. Because of all the scams out there people have lost their faith. People fail to make online money because they expect to get rich very fast, they get discouraged when they see they have to work, to learn. Online jobs are not for everybody.
