A couple of weeks ago, a colleague of mine sent me an email noted "Important Notice not a joke". Normally, this would have been sent immediately to my trash bin, but since I actually knew this guy I decided to go ahead and give it a look. Based on his email, he's seemed to be extremely excited about an opportunity that he considered to be a "gift" from his well-trusted friend (keywords) and naturally he wanted to pass it along to others. So I listened to a 2-minute and a 20-minute recording, curious to see if I would reach that same level of excitement as he did. Well did I? Not so much?
Fast-forward two weeks later?
As I prepared to attend my daughter's basketball game, I received a phone call. I wasn't sure who it was, but the number shared the same area code as mine so I answered it. It was him calling from his landline (that explains why his caller ID didn't show up?smh). I already suspected what he'd might say, so I just prepared myself for the "pitch".
"Hey, Mike! Did you get my email that I sent to you a couple of weeks ago? What did you think?"
"Different person, different opportunity, but similar pitch." (Well, this is what I thought to myself anyways)
So I asked him what I typically ask everyone else that presents me with a new opportunity, "What kind of marketing does this company have in place for its distributors?"
The reason I asked him this question is because I find that most companies out there would rather "hype" you into their opportunity rather than actually train you on how to market that business should you decide to join.
Here are a couple of things that I believe many of you will see when searching for Narc That Car Reviews on the internet:
1. People bashing Narc Technologies or any network marketing company for that matter. There are those who will never understand the network marketing industry and would rather dish out all sorts of negative comments regarding the industry. They believe everything is a scam and would rather complain about having no money, yet refuse to take action. 2. People who have built successful organizations in their own companies and have decided to coach others to do the same with various e-books, webinars, etc. It's not uncommon for them to sponsor people effortlessly into their organization. 3. Narc That Car distributors explaining how great their company is, their exciting compensation plan, or what leaders are a part of their company.
If you have been introduced to Narc Technologies and are considering joining, I've taken a look into the company and want to give you an unbiased review and why I personally decided not to join. (?and no I'm not telling you that you shouldn't join)
What Is Narc Technologies? Narc Technologies is a Dallas, Texas based company that has been in business since 2005. Ford, Nissan, Toyota, and other finance companies have been getting assistance from Narc Technologies to locate delinquent vehicles from a network of thousands of consultants (being you) who will submit license plate numbers into a national data base.
What Is Required Of A Narc Consultant?
This part seems fairly simple. As a Narc Consultant, it is your responsibility to write down 10 random license plate numbers per month from grocery stores, shopping malls, restaurants, apartment complexes, etc. After the information has been submitted, lien holders will crosscheck their information from their super-confidential "Watch List". (Ok, I'm reaching a little bit.) Consultants of this company may become offended for me saying this, but it almost seems as if you are being paid to become a snitch.
How Is A Narc Consultant Compensated?
There are 2 primary ways that a consultant can get paid. A commission will be paid every month when ten new license plate numbers are entered or when new consultants are sponsored, management overrides will be received based on their production. I'm not going to go into every little detail of the compensation plan, but you can find the complete comp. plan in pdf. format by clicking here. However, from viewing the comp. plan it seems that you will absolutely need to have a fairly large organization if you are planning on receiving a nice-sized monthly income. Downline attrition combined with the inability to sponsor new reps on a consistent basis will quickly put you out of business if you're not taking action.
Should You Join Narc That Car?
This is entirely up to you. However, I would advise that you evaluate this company thoroughly and make a smart business decision. Don't make a silly decision to jump on board just because you attended one of those hotel-hype meetings and got overly excited about the opportunity. Is Narc Technologies A Legit Business?
You have to wonder if randomly selected license plates from narc consultants will hold any significance to the repo agencies. How do you actually know if they are actually paying for the license plate information that is being entered into the national data base?or is the real cashflow coming from the constant recruiting of people combined with the $24.95 monthly website fee?
So, is this company a scam?
Well I wouldn't go that far, but seeing that there isn't much of a product involved has made me raise an eyebrow. In order to make an substantial income with this company, the emphasis is placed on recruiting rather than the selling of products?and well you be the judge.
Why I Wouldn't Join This Company
#1 -I would more than likely never join a company that doesn't actually show its distributors how to market their opportunity. One thing that a lot of network marketing companies are missing is a duplicatable system in place for its distributors. (Telling anyone with a pulse and getting them to tell anyone with a pulse about your opportunity is NOT a system!) Narc That Car is no different. Systems can be duplicated, people cannot (Just ask McDonald's). All of that "you get 3 and help them get their 3 and so forth" is out of the window.
#2 - 95% of companies fail in their first 2 years and their Network Marketing Go Live was started in July of 2009 so personally I wouldn't invest in a company that hasn't shown me some type of stability. However given their low start-up fee of somewhere in the range of $75-$100, you wouldn't be losing too much if the company takes a turn for the worse.
Look if you're a were thinking about joining this company and came across this review, understand that it's not meant to sway you in either direction. If you join I wish you much success for you and your family. Take out the time to learn how to market effectively and literally explode your Narc Business. If you decide not to join, you already know that there are numerous companies out there that you can join after thorough research.
