There is no point involving in what you know you can not be able to meet up with.
But I think there is no harm in try out new things. This is a free world and I personally love trying out new stuffs especially when there are possibilities of making some good money from it but in as much as I love trying out new things, I also don't want things that seems to be a waste of time to me because over the time I've watched several YouTube videos on how to make effective use of referral bonuses but they all seem impossible when I tried because for you to get something really worth it from referrals then one has to have a great niche and audience of people who believe and would easily do as you tell them to do ( just my opinion).
In as much as you a trying a new thing that does not mean you can get it that easy. Life is not a bed of roses mate so if there is anything you want, you must try it out to get it in a good scale but the possibility of getting it free is minuit because you would pass through processes to get it done. Any thing that seems to be a waste of time to you means that there is something lacking which invariably means you are not putting in your efforts or it just do not entice you because I believe anything worth doing is worth doing well. If You are talking of audience, I believe they should be your followers because what ever you tell them to do that is what they would do not to talk of what you told them to do is of more benefit to them. You see one thing with refferal bonuses and audience, if you can not scale through the process at first on your own do not get them involved otherwise you will get yourself frustrated and loose their trust in you.
