    Hello guys,

    I would like your opinion about a brand new business called ACN. It's a kind of business where you make money by selling video phones and sponsoring. You see, a kind of phones you can see the person to who you're talking worldwide.
    I don't remember the name of the founders but i know Donald Trump is one of the spokesman.

    I like the concept of that business and would like to know what you think about it.

    I had a buddy drag me to an ACN presentation - it's a MLM scheme that costs $500 to get started. You can make $1000 by getting 20 people to switch gas companies once you join, but you won't see anymore money coming in after that - only promises. A few people I know tried it out.

    It's not worth it...I had attended three times at the meetings, but I didn't join, a few of my friends joined it and they wanted me to join them too, but I hide away from them kekeke...smart.....ha?
    I don't know if those of my friends got $3000/month after getting two rep. for themselves and 5 customers :(
    You can go to google and search for "ACN Spam" to read more on how people saying about ACN though..

    This company has been around for ages and defintely isn't new. I would suggest you do A LOT of research. One of my old friend's mom was a higher up in this company.

    Like PC said, it's a MLM scheme and it takes a lot of work just to get your $500 fee back.

    It actually sound just like you are a vacuum salesman working on commission.

    I wouldn't really think that would be to profitable, but then again probably more easy than selling a vacuum.

    Thank you all for sharing your opinion about that company. But you know, nothing is easy in life. It most of the most take commitment and a lot of work to succeed. Nobody became successful over night. It takes belief and action in order to succeed.

    Hey, I know about ACN... I'm a member of a similar company called 5linx... the reason why most people would call companies like ACN a scam is because they've been unsuccessful in the MLM industry. There's always a way and a strategy about being successful in this business. And to be honest with you its not thru word of mouth... and ACN and companies like it are not gimmicks... you just need to learn how to work your business...

    Most people that i've came across who have knowledge about ACN and 5Linx have told me that they'll rather be in 5linx b/c of the compensation plan...

    anyway check out this free ebook that explains why 97% of network marketers fail in this industry...

    i promise you once you read it, you'll have a new way off thinking and a better way to boost your MLM business

    ACN has been around for a long time. Originally they offered telecommunication services however after deregulation etc. they moved towards other products.
    The video phone is one of their more popular products however they also are better than competitive with their digital phone service. I actually use their phone service as it was 40% less than my comcast service.

    I have a handfull of friends involved with ACN and they are all doing well. Some are making a LOT of money and others are making in the hundreds/month but they all follow the system they have in place.

    It is not a scam and it is also not for everyone. Like anything else you would have to work hard to make big money. If you join and don't do anything you will be throwing your $$$$ out the window.
