The best way for me till now it joining forums and networkcommunity's just like adlandpro and all that.
You have contact with the people so you can let them see what you doing and if its succesfull and above all..is it paying
For me is that the best way to get people in my downline..i'm now in this for just two months and have a downline of 25 people and for a newbie like me i think it's very good.
I have already see here some of the community's where i'm a member of but 1 not
So i put the link over here.

1 tip: People love to see that you have been payed. I works very well!
