New business networking benefit
The first of a list of long anticipated networking benefits is finally here! Networking Miles™ is a new concept in business networking. The more active a networker you are, the more Networking Miles™ you gain, giving you a higher ranking on the members’ listings. The members list is ranked in descending order according to activity. The most active members feature at the top of the list and gain more exposure and promotion. Other members can gain the benefits of rising to the top of the list by increasing their activity.
The top-10 active members will feature on the home page, and as long as you are in the top-10, your business will appear on the home page.
The more you earn, the more exposure and business you will get!
