Question of the day:
Why can’t I pay after I’ve made money with your program? I don’t want to pay first.
Answer: Well, I suppose this would all come down to mindset. Think about it.
“I don’t want to pay until my referrals pay and I make a commission, then I’ll decide if I want to pay.”
Chances are your referrals would have the same mindset as you, which means they won’t pay either until they’ve referred some paying members.. but then THOSE people would do the same thing… not pay until THEY’RE making money. Do you see a pattern here? I do. The end result: NOBODY is paying, and NOBODY is making any money.
Remember, you’re not paying for the program. You’re paying for the products that the company is selling. The affiliate ‘program’ is attached to the product. It’s up to you if you want to make money by reselling the products. But you’re not going to get ‘real’ products for free.
How about this: I’ll offer you a job at my company, but I won’t actually pay you until you’ve proven that my company will benefit from having you as an employee. You can work for free for me for a month or so, then I’ll decide. Still interested in the job? … didn’t think so.
You need to be willing to invest in your business, in yourself, in your knowledge, your education, and your skills. If you’re not willing to do this, you’re not right for this industry and you should keep working for someone else.
If you want it, you’ll do what it takes to succeed. If you’ve got it in you, you WILL be successful.
Have a great day,
