Is it Good to promote a Free opportunity or Paid opportunity.
We come across so many programs daily which let you join for Free. Also there are well established programs which require a start up investment. I would like you all to share your opinion as to which program would you prefer to promote, The free one or the paid one.

Bruce I agree with you about SFI, however I think that their training is very good for a new marketer. You can take what you learned from them and apply it to what you are promoting now.

Brilliant analysis Bruce. Many years ago I started a FREE community regarding Business Building,. Invested a lot of time and money setting up the system.
Had a huge sign-up...and a practically ZERO involvement.
Refurbished the program, added a reasonable Tuition, and the program blossomed and the members (almost everyone) grew in knowledge and more important added considerably to their sales and profits.

I refuse to deal with anything free. For the longest time I tried with SFI which is one of the leaders of free internet businesses, and what I found the problem to be, is when 1 out of 25,000 actually spend money - it takes far to much effort to make money.
99% of the people who join free businesses (according to my experience), join because they don't have money to invest.... and they bring all their friends who don't have money to invest, who bring friends who...... you get the idea.
