How important are relationships in ebusiness?

You're absolutely right Steven.

Relationships equal trust and trust equals success

@Deborah You will always find people like that and that okay. Don't waste your time about thinking what you have done wrong. Just go ahead and go your way. There are other people who will be thankful for your help.

I don't think you can, Deborah. Just concentrate on relationships with the ones you CAN and hope the mutees just keep on trucking on their own

I agree that relationship is paramount to what you are wanting to help people achieve.But dilemma may haunt everyone is "the mute multitude". Those downlines that will not respond to messages;or give a simple thank you for free credits.
I have a downline of 23 in a particular TE; and frequently send them credits as a thank you for staying active or to offer help.
Frustrating I must say. How can you build a relationship with people like that?

I think a good relationship is the main part of every online business.

To make sucessful ,you should be able to relate others,they have to be satisfied your personality to do the business with you and build a relationship and trust.

It is good to see different opinions thanks

More than just important, they are ESSENTIAL. Especially with so many choices of programs to join and commit to out there we all need to make and nourish our connections and relationships if we expect to get anywhere
