Generally rules can be of four types:

●Rules for governing distributors ●Rules for qualifying for various commissions. ●Rules to curb distributors from committing legal mistakes that would jeopardize well being of a company. ●Rules to make distributors disciplined.

Some companies pay distributors, commission on sales that had been made by them and some percentage of commission on sales made by people forming their downline. In some companies distributors get 7 % commission for products or services sold by their direct recruits and 5 % on that made by next level of recruits. This sequence goes on for other levels of recruits too. There's restriction in some companies on number of levels of recruits a distributor can be paid for. In some companies number of levels allowed are equal to number of sales made, while in others, some other parameters are set. There are some procedures too that enable a distributor to create and head his or her own chain of distributors on achieving some targets of sales.

I could fill pages with those promises. When I started my own online business, I have wasted my time and my money on some of those tools, discover how to save yours!

Online marketing is an area where you can find a LOT of hype. Make a quick search at Google for ‘buy hits’, ‘ad blaster’ or ‘email blaster’ and you’ll have an idea how wide those big void promises of getting ‘automatic’ traffic to your website. But it’s not a real traffic...

By real traffic I refer to traffic that has a great potential to convert to either sales, joining business opportunity you promote, joining your newsletter or any other purpose you might have. This IS bottom line of your business...

As an online business owner, especially of you are building it on a part time basis, you would be very tempted to ‘skyrocket’ your business easily and ‘without efforts’ as those ads implies. Just know this:

YES... you will submit your ad to thousands of websites. And YES... you would get plenty of hits, however, your conversion ratio (how many sales or signups you would gain out of this traffic) will be on a severe diet!

Let’s look at some examples to clarify why this kind of marketing is NOT worth your time or your money:

1. Ad Blasters

First, most of people visiting free classified sites are doing so just to place their ad, and not to view others ads.

Secondly, those ad blasters made many of those sites absolutely useless!

Think about it for a second: Let’s say there are ten people (only) using that database of 10,000 or so classified sites (and I’m sure they share same sites even if they are using different ad blasters). Each makes an automatic submission of 10 or more copies of same ad to a single category (that’s one of so called ‘features’ in those blasters – multiple submission of your ad copy to a specific category). What do you think will happen?
