As I think back on my first year in internet marketing and network marketing online this thought comes to mind.

Every program I joined I did so because person I joined under offered me hope that I could make money and be successful like them. The programs I stuck with were a direct result of my sponsor helping me become successful.

The other thing they all did is offered to do things for me that made it easy to be in business with them.

Most people joining an internet marketing or network marketing program do not have skill level to do what is required to become successful in that business.

Offering to do things for them gives them hope that maybe they can learn from you and someday become successful themselves.

Having read about or tried many of "Hottest" programs at time I feel qualified to recommend which ones will work.

Now that I am making money online I can recommend programs and products along with things I am doing to make money.

But I carry it one step further. I put my money where my mouth is when it comes to helping people make money online. I will go so far as to do 'Grunt' work at first to help people get their own work at home businesses started.

I will do things like place new members under my new partners to get them off to a fast start.

We use autoresponders in my groups for follow-up. I will personally load follow-up messages in autoresponder for them.

I put all follow-up messages in one general message that my downline can access and set-up their own responder as soon as they are capable.

I will write follow-up letters to their new prospects.

I will personally call new prospects on their behalf.
