I am talking about one of my referrals. Not here, I cannot get anyone here to stick around that I refer! I have no idea why, I love it so much here.
Anyway, I am so proud of her because she is really doing well on my other site and she is putting in an effort! Unlike most referrals I get she is actually doing it!! Apparently she WANTS to make money!
Do you have any referrals that you are proud of? Or do you have the opposite problem like I have here with referrals?

Yes, I have one referral I am proud of.
She's here mylotting with me most of the time.
Not because she wants to earn money but she find this site a good outlet- when she's down, sad, happy and everything.
I am proud of here honestly and I am glad she enjoys mylotting a lot

Yeah I only have one too. I wish more people were serious about making money but their not. They want the money but they don't want to work for it. I hate that. If you say you need money, work for it! It is not rocket science, Lol.
That's good that she likes it here like we all do. I wish I could find someone for here but sadly people fill out their interests and don't go any further with it! Ugh.

Your exactly right! It drives me crazy!! They are willing to go to these other sites and spend hours on them for FREE but not get paid for it??

I have one on another site and unless I message her on FB that a code is out, she really doesn't do much..I guess I need to encourage her more..LOL

My other referrals need to be encouraged too. They all say they want to make money, you give them ways to but they never do it!

Wow Hatley, good story..Yep, some people have that mentality that the world "owes" them and I know a few personally, they are not fun to be around when things go bad...

hi carm and Lovingmybabies this reminds me of a story my hubby told me called Peel me A Grape.seems this pretty young princess was so unhappy as she could get oodled of boy friends'but only one date and they never came back. she was really beautiful butvery lazy and a bit bossy. now the new boy friend comes
in and is all aglow at how pretty she is.She is laid out on
her golden chaise lounge.a big bowl of delicious grapes are
on a table so close she could touch them. She looks at the latest
boyfriend and languidly asks him,"Peel me a grape p lease." the boy
friend looks at her and the grapes, turns around and runs out
the door. A lot of newcomers come here with the attitude mylot
owes me money just for being here.

I have the opposite problem with referrals. I referred a lot of people some of whom were active for just a few short weeks and then stopped completely. The others never even got active with one discussion. I find it hard to understand people who take up a business opp and then ignore it, yet they will post on FB for nothing... _Derek

Don't feel bad, I only have one referral on my modeling site and I have 10 people here on my referral list doing absolutely NOTHING!! It is quite annoying! I just do not get it at all. Why would anyone not like being here? Makes no sense to me! Then they complain about having no money????
My referrals here stop in the middle of doing their interests!

I used to really try to get people to be referrals on here. Afew would try and stayed awhile. But most of them didn't like it or found it too much work I guess. My referral page is chuck full, just none of them stuck. I do wish I could get one or two to stay on. Had one for awhile but they left too.

Glad the one referral is working for you. I wonder what is different between us and the referrals that don't work out? Hmmm.

Funny that you said that. I have wondered that so many times and I cannot figure it out!
I can't decide if they just don't think its enough money, if they think its work instead of fun, or what exactly it is...Makes no sense to me! Lol

I have tried too. I have 10 on my referrals page now because I deleted all the rest that I did have. They all do NOTHING! They fill out their interests page and do nothing more. I just don't get it. This one person wasn't even worried about the money, she told me she wanted people to talk to when she had nothing to do. I said ooh I know the perfect site for you! She filled out her interests and said its not really my thing... How would you know that when you have not even looked around yet??
I wish I could get one to stay here too. I love it here and I think others would too if they gave it a chance! I am grateful for my one referral on my modeling site though, at least she is putting in really good effort!

Hi friend, good to hear about your referral, but i am not lucky to have a working referral, most of my referrals are inactive my sites, as well as i don't expect a lot from referrals, our hard work only help us to earn more, if we got this kind of active referrals, we are so lucky

Thank you. I feel lucky to have her because she is the ONLY one who does anything! The rest of my referrals are inactive and it drives me crazy! I am grateful for at least one referral.

I think most of us have the same problem. Out of all the people you introduce to a program, usually you end up with just a few that will actually put the effort in. That's just human nature, I suppose. The same thing happens in MLMs, direct sales and other similar opportunities. The majority seem to want money to fall from the sky without doing any actual work for it. Those people should stick to the lottery.

Yes it is SO annoying that only a couple will put in any effort at all. Yeah they want money but they don't want to do ANY work for it. That is not reality people! They should just stick to the lottery, good luck to them. Lol

I only have that one but not on here. She is on my modeling site. I am grateful she is taking it seriously.
People I have referred here have not done anything with it. They pick their interests and thats it. It is so frustrating!

None of mine here have either. All they do is fill out their interests and nothing else. It drives me nuts! I love this place so much. I cannot imagine not being here. If only people would give it a shot they would love it too!

That is cool.
I can never get my friends to actually do stuff like that. They may join a site, but that is rare; even if they do join, they end up not being active--even though they often complain that they could use more money and certainly spend enough time online that they could pick up at least a few dollars from the sites I've recommended.

I know she is the only one I have on my modeling site. Everyone I have referred here will only fill out their interests and quit there. It drives me crazy!
Yeah most of the people I have referred said they need the money, I tell them and they do nothing!

Good for you and for her. I don't have any referrals that are doing all that great. Some start out doing wonderfully then it just does off. I wish I could get a referral I am proud of. What other sites you working on? Send me a message with the details.
@LovingMyBabies (85288)

Yeah, she is the only one I have on my modeling site. It was difficult getting one referral! And so far, no one will stay here long enough to do much of anything!

I have never gottan any referrels. I never have tried. I have heard so many stories of Mylotters getting referrels and they give up in a shaort time. So I decided not ever try to get any on Mylot or any other sites.

I don't blame you for not trying. It is a pain thats for sure. So many people said they needed extra money or they wanted some more people to talk to so I told them about this site. They come, fill our their interests and quit! I don't get it...

I've had the exact same problem with referrals that I've made here. They will participate in one or maybe two discussions and then they will disappear from the site. However, there are a couple of other sites that I work on and I find that the referrals that I make on those sites do tend to be pretty active. This is something that I am really thankful for because not only are those people helping themselves, they are also helping me.

Yeah my referrals here do nothing. They pick their interests and do nothing more. So frustrating sometimes! If they would just stay a little longer I know they would love it the way we all do!
I am glad we have referrals in other places, I just wish we could get more here too. =)

Your lucky one is doing something here! None of my 10 referrals are doing ANYTHING on this site at all! It is so annoying. They fill out their interests and then nothing else.
I am glad I have one referral for my modeling site, at least it's something!

lovingmybabies I read so many discussions here about mylot referrals not putting in any effort at all.So I just d id not bother as I am
on here so much that I c an make money with referrals. I hate confrontations anyway.but I think its great that your referral is
actually doing well on your other site and that will aide you
both. I love my lot and cannot understand how people start out as referrals and just quit and leave. I think too many people mainly younger people want pie in the sky money and cannot settle for what they could make on mylot.they have overblown ideas of how much
money they can make here or that they actually have to do something to earn it.

Yeah I have 10 on my page right now and not one of them is actually doing anything here! I have no clue why. I love it so much here, it blows my mind that other people don't want to give it a chance! They fill out their interests and then nothing after that!!
That might be true, maybe people are hoping to get rich over night. News flash for them, aint gonna happen!

My sister got me in here. So, I've been trying to do the most of my experience here on myLot. To the point that I've even surpassed her number-rating.
So, I've also tried to look for people that could also do well for me as my referral. Sadly, I've been unlucky at that department. Even the friends that I thought would do great here, would just be here for a few months and then disappear.

I am sure you have made her very proud! My referrals here sadly are not doing anything at all! They fill out their interests and thats it! I hate it. I wish I would find a good referral here too! But I am glad my referral on my modeling site is doing good!
Yeah so many people give up here, I don't get it...

Actually only on the social network I belong to. I did get one of my friends from there to join me here, but she has not been active in the last few days. I don't know why they stop coming here. But none of my other sites, I have no luck when it comes to referrals.

Sadly, no. I have asked my student and friend to try writing here by become my referrals, but I think none of them are really interested in trying rather than just asking. I knew this site from a friend who thinks I am really capable in making money here. So I think I'm more like your friend to mine.

Yeah most people that are referred here do nothing anyway. I have 10 referrals right now and not one of them do anything at all. They filled out their interests and that was it.
I got lucky with this referral for my modeling site! She is doing great.
