Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

• Why did Network In Action (NIA) decide to launch NIAX?

  NIAX was created to meet the demand for a modern networking model that rewards real results. Business owners told us they wanted more than just relationships — they wanted revenue. NIAX brings accountability and incentives into the networking world.

• How is NIAX different from traditional networking groups?

  Traditional groups focus on attendance, industry exclusivity, and vague “give-to-get” expectations. NIAX removes the barriers — no exclusivity, no forced referrals — and adds what’s been missing: cash payouts for closed business and tools to track it.

• What are the two ways I can earn with NIAX?
  • Grow your own business through high-trust connections and referrals.
  • Earn commission payouts when you refer business that results in a closed deal — even if the business isn’t for you.
• How do commissions work?

  Every member sets a "thank-you" commission for closed business. If you refer someone and the deal closes, you earn the commission they’ve agreed to pay. NIAX tracks it all and facilitates secure payouts.

• Do I control the payout amount for my own referrals?

  Yes. As a member, you determine how much you offer others as a thank-you commission for sending you business. You stay in control at all times.

• Is my commission income taxed?

  Yes. Just like any income, commissions paid through NIAX are reported and subject to applicable tax laws. You’ll receive the appropriate documentation for tax filing each year.

• Do I have to share revenue to participate in NIAX?

  No, but doing so incentivizes referrals and significantly increases the chances that other members will send you business. The most successful members treat the commission model as a smart investment in marketing.

• What does a typical NIAX meeting look like?

  NIAX meets monthly — just like Network In Action — but the focus is on business opportunities, growing your business, and tracking closed revenue. Meetings are led by experienced facilitators who keep things efficient, intentional, and results-driven.

• Is there industry exclusivity?

  No. Unlike traditional networking groups, NIAX allows multiple members from the same industry. Competition creates accountability and lets buyers choose the best fit.

• How does NIAX track referrals and closed business?

  Our proprietary platform allows members to:

  • Log referrals
  • Track outcomes
  • Record commissions owed or paid — all in one place

  This creates transparency and ensures everyone is rewarded fairly. Money never leaves your account without your knowledge and control.

• What if I refer someone but the deal doesn’t close?

  No problem. Commissions are only owed on closed business. The system is built to reward results, not activity.

• Can I participate if I’m new in business or just starting out?

  Absolutely. NIAX welcomes entrepreneurs at all stages. In fact, newer business owners often benefit quickly by receiving referrals from more established members.

• What kind of support or training do I get as a member?

  NIAX includes:

  • Monthly business training
  • Leadership access
  • Referral coaching
  • Exclusive tools to help you generate, track, and close more business
• How much does it cost to join NIAX?

  Pricing may vary by region or facilitator, but it is designed to be competitive — with the potential for a full ROI from just one closed deal. If you are intentional in your referrals you should gain more in commissions than the cost of your membership.

• What happens if I refer someone who joins NIAX?

  You can earn a bonus or ongoing credit depending on your facilitator’s program. Ask your local NIAX leader about the referral incentive structure.
