You can lead a horse to the water...but you can not make it drink.

I am not sure what it is, if new members do not realize there are REAL people on the other side. If the sign-ups are from robots? Whether it is the test of time that people no longer treat each other as people, or that interacting via the internet has gone into a phase of anonymously. And that people don't realize anymore that behind every screen there sits a person looking back at them.

When you have signed up under my account, I am here.

And I am looking back at you, expectfully and eager to help you.

You only have to do one thing, please place one message under my welcome message on your profile.

"I am here to look around, and I will let you know if I like it or not"

We stay good friends whatever you decide, but please let's interact as human beings.

I'm with you on this Loes.
A lot of the time I don't get a reply even though the person contacted me first.

I also notice that a lot of people do not offer the courtesy of a thank you for helping them.

I cannot help but think that they think we long term members and /or ambassadors are at their beck and call and we should be helping them.

We are not here to be at anyones beck and call and we have our own online business to take care of and we also have family and friends we want to see and talk to as well.

A little good old fashioned courtesy is all that is needed but its sadly lacking in a lot of members and not just the new members.

Have an awesome Tuesday Loes.
Robert

Thanks Robert, I see this as common courtesy too, but it doesn't seem the norm of today anymore. Enjoy your day too!

I will do my very best to enjoy my day.
Just about to go out the door and head off uptown.
Take care Loes.
Robert

Great Post as ever, I speak regularly to my Referrer Jerry and he helps me a lot, thanks again Richie

Glad you do, most of my referrals don't give a sound

Thanks Loes, Very true. The internet can be so cold and impersonal. Glad you and others are here to give a helping hand. To your success. td

This blog is another way to reach out to them, they all get a notification 🌠

brilliant Loes and a thought we all have I'm sure!

Yes, I reckon I am not the only one😫

This is a very good post Loes, very true, I think the ones that go offfor many different reasons, think the grass is greener on the other side.

If only they realised that building a WA blog is the starrting point for their list building, which once they start that, leads t ofinancial freedon within 12 months, if done daily

Thanks for sharing

Yes, if only...

Agreed

How do you determine and know that I am your referral, Loes?

Unfortunately, you are not my referral, you are not on my list, Jimmy.
You can see on your dashboard, who has referred you to WA, when you click on Help Center, you'll find Kyle, Carson and a 3rd person, that's your referrer. When there isn't a 3rd person, you'll are directly signed up under Kyle or Carson

Thanks, Loes. How can I know who are my referrals? Let's say for a long time I've known somebody and never signed up but decided to do it after five years.

Go to the $ sign and click on Referrals, then select the Premium tab.
Also, check your WA emails - you should get a notification that someone has joined.

Thanks, Jackie.

I agree Loes. Which is why Iam trying interact with them each day or when they reach a goal. We do need to make sure we don’t sound like a robot. Many answers I see are the same fir every person. I suggest if they have their profile to make the comments personal and different. Works better fir me. Great post.

Then you are a step further than I am. When they reach a goal, they are at least interacting. I am talking about the ones who come and leave without one sign of life or saying one word.

Thank you Lows for the reminder. I will keep it in mind from now on with all messages from the WA community.

It's a pity so many people skip this opportunity

Yeah, I can totally relate to this Loes. The referrals care to signup but don't care enough to leave a comment /respond to welcome message. And then Vanish like they never have come to WA or had signed up. I have like 20+ referrals (if I ain't wrong) but none had gone past Money Goals with the majority of them simply signed-up. They have an excellent opportunity to interact with other members Via Live Chat, have access to all the courses/training, videos, Q&As; in different classrooms to be able to conclude WA isn't a Scam or Crap like many programs out there. But sadly they don't take benefit of this Features.

Yes very sad they do not even take a peek or say something

I always treat my referral and everyone else with kindness and respect :)
Good post Loes

Yes, I do too, if only they gave a sign of life, it would be so much nicer:)

Yes had a couple of those already :(

I think I have 250 of those
