The Very Best Network Marketing Opportunity
The very best network marketing
opportunity could be one you've already heard of: Avon, Mary Kay,
Herbalife. Or it could be a dark horse you've never imagined.
The network marketing group sounds
huge: over $40 billion in annual sales. Sounds like a lot,
doesn't it. In truth, it is less than one percent of all sales in
the US. Sounds pretty small, doesn't it.
It's easy to say that the best Network
Marketing opportunity is the one that works for you. But you may
not know which one works for you. So, here are some guidelines
1. Make sure the product is real.
Don't buy an "opportunity". If
you do, there won't be any "opportunity" there. Companies are in
business because they have good products. Your company should be
the same.
Any company that does not promote the
value of its product is a fraud. It is nothing more than a
pyramid scheme, and something you want to keep away from at all costs.
It doesn't matter what the product
is. We have
some examples for you, but there are lots and lots more
exceptional products out there for you to discover.
2. Make sure you are paid mostly
for your product sales, not for "selling" others on the "opportunity".
In the best Network Marketing
opportunity that I ever worked with, I earned over 90% of my income
from product sales. Only 10% came from "selling the opportunity"
to others. It's an important distinction.
3. Make sure that mandatory costs
aren't draining your income.
Are seminars mandatory? Are
monthly product quotas mandatory? Are sales brochures or other
advertising mandatory? Check on those kinds of things.
There are lots of ways you can get ripped off before you ever see your
paycheck.
4. Don't pay more than $300 to
$500 for your initial costs.
Sure, there is an investment needed
for many companies, but the best network marketing companies aren't
after your money -- they are after your sales.
5. Watch out for high income
claims.
| The "best" is not necessarily
the one who can shout the loudest. Often it is the quiet
company. And those huge dreams are just that -- dreams.
|
Be realistic and expect to work to
build your business.
6. Don't buy product unless the
company will buy it back.
The Direct Selling Association
mandates that member companies buy back all product at 90% of its
costs within a year of its sale. That's a big guarantee.
If your company doesn't offer that, it's not a member of the Direct
Selling Association. If it isn't a member of the Direct Selling
Association, ask why not.
7. Look for an established
company
About 90% of all network marketing
companies fail within three years. That's a huge number.
If you have invested your time, your energy, your website, your future
in that company, you are up a tree if they go out of business.
Older companies are just more stable.
8. Make sure there are
complimentary products and/or services you can feature on your site.
Your affiliate company may be the
core of your business, but a whole lot of your income may well come
from complimentary products and services that you feature on your
site.
