Question On A Residual Income?

[jrmintt1]

Hello every one! Hopefully every body is doing well. I have a question about a job that a friend is trying me to try out. It's a communications company called ACN. I went to a meeting to see what this company is all about and I didn't know what to think about it. Well basically its about working part time from home and paying a $499 entry fee includes(training, team management, etc). I was told they don't do any marketing like media advertising telemarketing mass mailing because they rather do relationship marketing. The pay off is a residual income by acquireing customers and representatives. The equation for the pay goes by every customers monthly bill you obtain a comissiopn of 10% and every customer your representatives have you recive a percentage. At the end it equals to #/reps X phone customers X $/mo= $. I'm very new to the business world and I'm looking for an extra source of income on top of what I curently do. I like to come in strong and work hard but I don't know if this is a good opportunity to makea little revenue. Is this worth taking shot at, or should I keep searching for something else? Let me know what all you think about it. Thank you for your time and you guys have a good day.

Do not throw your money away at this scam. I've had two friends fall for it and the bottom line is that they're out 500 bucks a pop.

It is simply a pyramid scheme in its purest form. If you go ahead with this joke of an "opportunity" then we shall be expecting your "i fell for a scam" thread a few months from now. Save yourself the money for something that actually has a chance of bringing you money.

Just google "ACN Scam" and do your research.

This is just another MLM company. Very common, virtually the same concept everywhere.

If you can eat the fact that you are paying for a sales job...and if you think you can sell the shit out of whatever they are selling then go for it.

Any job where you have to pay first for registration is a scam

Thanks guys for all the help and advisement you are giving me. I almost fell for it but I was skeptical about it, so I said to hold up a bit. Then I came and asked about it here. So I appreciate all the help you give me good thing you guys came to the rescue. What type of business do you guys recommend to get into as a novice person in this field? I'm looking to get my feet wet a little step at a time or push hard if directed to the right direction. I'm going to school currently for entrepreneurial studies/small business, but there’s nothing like doing it. Thank you for your time and you guys have a good day.
