Crowd sourcing takes two words and forms them together, crowd and outsourcing. This means that tasks normally given to an internal employee are delegated to a crowd outside of the area. This is what Narc Technologies is doing with their Narc That Car business opportunity.
There is an individual aspect involved, but in order to make any decent amount of income you must recruit others to join your team. This opportunity is no different than many MLM programs, team building is what will build large incomes here.
According to Narc Technologies, police departments, repossession companies and other various departments and companies have access to the Narc That car database. A fee must first be paid to the company before this access is granted. They are then able to log into the system and view information on individuals that they may be searching for, and the last known whereabouts of that individual (or their vehicle at least).
The data that is contained within this system is collected by the individual representatives that have chosen to sign up for this business opportunity. As representatives, they are required to go out into the field and collect license plate numbers and the locations of the vehicles that these numbers have been obtained from. This information is then placed into the database. Each representative is required to collect a minimum of ten license plate numbers per month.
There is an initial sign up fee of $100. After you become a member, there is then an additional fee of $24.95 per month required. This fee is to cover the costs of websites and the tools provided to you. On the surface, the compensation seems extremely low. However, as with most MLM companies the possibility of building a large income comes in your ability to recruit and build a large organization.
Narc Technologies is not yet well known by many. Those that do hear about this business opportunity look at it one of two ways. Either they find that the simplicity of it means that it must be a scam, or they think that it is a wonderful opportunity for them.
So does this mean that Narc Technologies is running a Network Marketing scam? Not necessarily is this true or false. Many people look at what a scam is or is not in different context. Webster defines a scam as being a fraudulent or deceptive act or operation. This would lead one to believe that no matter what is taking place, as long as they are honest and upfront about it, then it isn’t a scam. Narc That Car Inc is honest when they tell you that the pay scale isn’t huge. They do advise you up front of the monthly fees involved with the opportunity. At the same time, they do make it seem extremely simple, when in fact network marketing is anything but. It does take a lot of work to do. It should also be noted that the BBB has given Narc a highly negative report and low company rating. I don’t know the details or causes but is something that warrants further investigation.
There is something important I feel that I must add to this review. Over the past few months I have spoken with several Narc reps that told me about their difficulties contacting or speaking with anyone at Narc Technologies home offices. I’m not sure if this is a continuing issue but something worth looking into if you are considering joining this opportunity.
When looking at the opportunity and deciding if this is a viable option for you or not there are a few things to consider. Are you familiar with how to properly market yourself or your business? Are you joining a strong team that will provide you with the support and tools you require to succeed?
One last note. There does not appear to be any type of capture page or followup system in place for reps wanting to build their businesses online. There is a much better solution however that will allow you to build your own brand and downline all in one place. Click the link below or opt-in to my newsletter above to learn more.

I have recently joined CSI and I am excited about the possibility of becoming successful. I have been involved in several MLM companies in the past, Mary Kay, ACN and most recent Ardyss. Ardyss for me was just too much work. The most successful for me was ACN. I was not financially successful however the training that I acquired was without a doubt priceless which I plan to use marketing CSI. The main reason that I am excited with CSI is because it is so simple and easily duplicatable. In addition there is NO selling products, NO inventory that potential customers have to purchase, NO autoship, NO change of service for potential customers and the investment is low. These are GREAT talking points! A point that I would like individuals looking at CSI to consider is the newness of the company, the idea and concept is somewhat new to network marketing. Quite frankly I think that’s a good thing. There will be problems with a new company; customer service, management, perhaps slow getting paid, etc. that to be expected and the upline individuals should convey that to their downline…Personally my only challenge with CSI is the same in any MLM company; successfully recruiting. If I can learn techniques, skills and tools on HOW to recruit (bringing intrested prospects to me) I know I can find success (financially) with CSI. I understand the challenges the company currently is faced with, and some of them are in the process of being resolved. I think CSI have the potential to become one of the biggest and most successful MLM companies around. I’m in!
