I am determined to not to be a cheater in money business. Many times i take to refer someone about a product that i think it is a legit one. Before i ask them, i have take survey about the product i'd be offered. I look for many references of it. Try to be caution not to doom oneself to failure and i started from myself. When i'm sure it is a very legit and good product based from my survey research, i dare to offer it to people. But again, it is not as simple as i thought. It still very hard to assure someone and ask them to struggle together in one kind of money business.

Hi firdauzi,
When scammers is more then the legit one involved in so called internet business, people would take extra precaution before they put their money and time. This is one hel.l of business. In order to success, people would cheat at a time or another. And this is what others believe and keep in mind.
Previously, proof of payment was enough to convince someone to give their money or at least their time for us, it is not the case now. With the technology advancement, everything can be produce including the proof of payment. We only need to know how to use "paint" or other photo edit application for that.
If we were honest enough in our business, all we can do is try our best to convince others in a proper way and leave it all to our God to determine it if we can get a business from it or no.
All we need is do the best and hope for the best. But, prepare for the worst so we can stand whatever come after it.

Most of the scam site would made a payment for the first one or two months before they stop. This is because they want others to believe that their site is paying and they can proved it. Even those who get paid also would try to market this site and try to convince other to join especially to become his or her referrals.

Nowadays its pretty hard to convince people to invest in any kind of business. Even though you already done your part and investigated the said business making someone else want to join the same thing is another thing. You need to have the patience and the right kind of attitude to make them believe you and then in return you will get their support. Treat every rejection as a learning process learn what part you failed when it comes to convincing people and try harder next time. Not being able to convince someone doesnt mean your not effective it just simply means you need more time to be good at what you do

i think this is not hard for you only to make someone believe on you. this is for everybody. and behind this the reasons are those people who have deceived earlier.
so people around us are more cautious.
but gradually when they get the better service from your side they will start believing on you and that will be more steady.

I think now lot of money business do not have credibility anymore. There too much scam, maybe up to 90 percent of they say is scam.
Right now when someone say something good about money bla...bla...bla... people don't trust... they will think it's lie. Because there is too much lie... too much scam... and very little about the truth...
Even we show them proof... they will not just believed. Trust is so difficult to find nowadays...and people not fool and don't want to be fooled.

i felt this also. When i join a GPT sites, i found the difficult way just to ask someone to join below me. So i'm just depending a rented referral to lift my online earning. Someday when i reach my minimum goals,at least get earning monthly, then i'm sure people will start to believe in me.

I think there has been a lot of scams in the past, and especially with things over the internet from other countrys you really have little comeback. I mean even if people show you a copy of a document over the internet is is easy to copy and try and scam someone that way. I also suppose it is like the real world the better you know a person and the longer you have known them the more they will be willing to trust you.

yes firdauzi you need to give them proofs. when they see you earned because you share your payment proof they can easily believe and join under you. Even I am, I do not believe in the saying," i have been paid on this site blah blah blah". You have to show me that the site really pays. If it is true nothing to worry, isn't it. We should understand them as many of the online members have been victim of scams. It is much nicer at even at first we are being true with them because they will truly marked us.

i'm agree with you. For now i'm still trying to get my own payment proof in some sites. There is people who stick other persons payment proof which has a great earning to their blog. Then giving the link to their own account. I don't like this way. I prefer to prove it myself then show it publicly. Eventhough it is a hard way.

Everyone wants the best product. So use your proof to convince them. Since you've done enough search, you should be confident of youself. So as long as you can go over the barrier of yourself, others will believe you.
Happy mylot!

I don't have that extra patience to convince people to do something that they can get paid, or to sell a certain product. I am not really good at convincing people because it is truly difficult to make them believe that it works even if it really worked on you.They would insist to let you show more proofs. And when you can't think of anything more then you ended up not selling a single item at your hand. That makes a MARKETING JOB too difficult.

Marketing is really difficult, of course. I knew a story about a war between Sega and Nintendo. Actually Sega has console as good as nintendo, or even better when they release Dreamcast which is 128bit and Nintendo only has a 64bit console (N64). But because of the issues in marketing, Sega fell down and lose from a newcomer Sony Playstation. That shows why marketing ability is in the first place to get a profit from the product we sell.

people up to now still want to see to believe... to see is to believe as the saying goes.. but if it is really difficult to convince your buyer why don't you tape your test and let them see the results that you have made in your self... at least you have proven it yourself than fool your buyer... have it tape, photograph but be honest on making your testimonies to your product...okay? i hope this some kind help you.. i am not in selling world but i hope you got my point...

yes, i gotta do that. But the case is i offer a new product which i am also a new member of it which the product has been proved by other people. While we are in the equal level of a beginner, it is harder to convince someone, right? So i should be show my successful proof first to ask more people who want to follow my trail.

Honest and Business are two works that hardly are seen together.
In the world we live, people usually plays always the crappiest cards to get stuff.
It's indeed nice you being determined to be a honest worker and is possible to make that possible and if you aim at the right persons you can win lots with that. People give more credit to honest and trusty people then to cheaters that get billions today and nothing tomorrow and is to that people that you need to aim.
What is better? Make 3000000 people to buy your stuff and don't care about you never ever again or to make 30000 people to buy it and say, thanks, pleasure to talk with you, come again, It will be nice to see you again and be a usual costumer? I would choose the second one because is a client for the future and that's good.
Honest all, just choose the right persons and never be stressed if something fails or doesn't go as you would expect.
