Recruiting vs Sponsoring in Network Marketing

What is the difference between recruiting and sponsoring in network marketing? Not much in actual usage, really, but there is one way to differentiate the terms. Recruiting literally means signing a prospect up to do your business. Period. You sign them up, you recruited them, you are done. Sponsoring people into your network marketing business, on the other hand, suggests a more long term relationship. A sponsor first recruits, then trains and helps their new associate find success with the business. See the difference? Sponsoring is the whole package. what you’re looking for when you sign up in a network marketing business is a sponsor who is interested in helping you get started.
