A friend of mine message me again about her networking business that she wanted to join to since her friend was already into it and earning better than when her friend was an employee. She said that the income is really great if you have many referals that are so active in referring and selling the products as well. I heard and read that some people are really so successful to this kind of business or networking.
Im still hesistant about it since I never tried to joing a networking business before and the registration or joining fee is quite high.
I better have to look for possible referals and buyers of the products that could make my earnings bigger.
Have you ever tried to be in this kind of business?
Any experienced to networking business?

Even I hate joining any kind of networking business as we have to work as a team and if any chain break while doing business your earning may hamper. It is good for those people who are talkative and request so many people ( a good social contact also needed) and mentally prepare to listen no

Yes there are some people who are good in this kind of business.Talkative and sociable enough to convince other people to join the team and make it bigger to earn more.Maybe people who will join in this kind of business venture will surely be positive and determine to find possible people that they can add to their group.Patience is needed and sale talk is a must.

Personally, I am not a fan of networking business. I think its a scam. Although I tried but I was still in college back then and was very naive at that time. And it was my close friend who recruited me so I went there, out of friendship. I attended one of their seminars and the speakers are very convincing, attracting you with higher earnings and money and whatever. But that's it. I never attended anymore since I don't like recruiting and I don't want to pay money (they asked for a big amount at that time) just so I can be a member. I think that when cashing out some money is involved, that's the time to back out (same goes in internet sites).

Maybe a scam for other who are not successful in the end unlike the other who are really earning big.Usually one of our friends used to recruit or convince us to join and sometimes we can't say no due to friendship.

I have joined several networking businesses however, all of them did not turn out successfully. I'm not good in recruiting. The chain practically stopped at my level. It could not go on. I lost interest in this networking business. I was convinced before because my upline promised me to help recruiting but when I was already a member no help was made to me.

I know also some who don't succeed in this kind of field so I already have a bit idea how it works but still, there are some who are really so successful in this field.Maybe those who don't succeed still have to learn more and work harder.Maybe they are not for them unlike to others who are really into this kind of business.

This type of networking business is also known as multi level marketing or MLM. Majority of MLMs are no other than scams. They promise high bonuses and so on as long as you help recruit people to join. Some may not have a physical product while some do. However, they are aiming at using people to help the higher ups to make money.
I once joined such program, I have managed to get a few small payment. While eventually the company owner ran away with all money. I believe millions have been cheated. Just make sure that it is completely save and don't invest extra money inside the business if you really want to try it.

Good thing that you got even small payment. There are some hearsay and news about some people who got scammed with some not legit netwroking site so we have to really be careful into things that we will invest into.

Hi ardoy!
I joined this kind of business before and I can say that I am not successful on this because I am not good in convincing other people especially if it would involve buying a product.
So I would just spend my time online to find the kind of work that would fit me and would bring me more success.
Have a great day!

Oh I also find online earnings easier that joining networking business.That's what I am worrying as well once I join one, the recruiting thing to make the group bigger and earn more.Maybe I will be good in selling the product but convincing for new members will be a problem with me.But this is where the income will be higher through recruiting or referrals so this kind of business will not for me as of now.

Networking business is a numbers game. You won't really make it alone unless you have an extraordinary talent in selling the products, that is, if you have an excellent one. When you enter into this kind of business, you must delete the word "stop" in your vocabulary. You will never be able to please everyone but you will definitely find people who will join your group. Know your products, master the compensation plan and share, share and share until it becomes part of your system.

Yeah right, there are some people who are really lucky to get many referrals and recruit many member, those who have excellent talent to this kind of business as you have said.Sharing and talking is one of the key to be successful to this kind of business.Determination and finding the right people to recruit to join the team.

Networking works if you have referrals who works hard.
I also joined this business for sometime and I can say that I earned from selling product- but I am not good when it comes to recruiting people.
Or shall I say- I don't want to fool others that networking is an easy money business.

Working hard with patience is one of the needed.Being sociable and talkative could be a plus and an advantage the fact that they could easily talk to people and convince them right away.Maybe for me, selling will be okay but the recruiting will be my problem as well in case I venture in this networking business.But for the meantime, don't have plans to join in any.

I have been enticed to join a networking business too, but i just wasted my money because not one centavo was returned to me.
That's because i wasn't able to recruit others who are willing to capitalize some amount just to be in networking business.
Actually, in networking , you will only prosper if your recruits can really recruit others because if not, the downline will stop and you won't be able to get back your capital.
Now, if someone offered me online or a networking business that involves a capital even if it's a minimal amount, i don't go for it anymore.

That is always the sad part for some, that they invested yet they don't get anything in return and money was just wasted,maybe their efforts were not still enough convinced other people to join, unlike to the pioneers who could really get lots of referrals.
At least you have learned about it and knew now how it really works.For me, there were some friends and people I know offered and discussed some kinds of network business yet I am still not decided and not into this way of earning money.

I am also in your sort not interested in such kind of online investment. We must be very careful while joining with such kind of sites.

Oh yes we really have to be careful in investing our money.We have to make sure that our money will earn even small profit than gone from nothing.There are lots of networking business out there that offers big earnings and profit so we have to be careful which one we will join into.For me, I am not into it as of the moment and no plans to join.

Networking business often involves selling something to people and recruiting new members. Not everyone will find this kind of work suitable. I personally is not cut for this kind of thing. Most people will start with their own family and friends. Unfortunately, non of my family members or friends is interested to join this kind of thing. However, my husband is the type that is easily influenced by people, he falls into this "trap" very often. I am not entirely happy because you lose money before you earn anything. Selling things or signing people up this way is harder than selling something people genuinely need.

There are some people who could easily be convince to joing such kind of business through lots of explanation and expertise of the people who are into this business. For me, I always have to make sure about it and thinking about it couple of times before joining. So far i never joined such networking business, maybe I may not be on this kind of business.
