How to spot the top network marketing companies
Ranked #149,881 in Business & Work, #1,174,947 overall
There are many business opportunities out there and it is hard to know which one to choose.Every distributor you come across will tell you their's is the best.They have the best product the best compensation plan the best marketing material.
But there are some key points you must address and in this lens I set out 9 of what I think are the most important.By reading this lens you will have a much clearer picture of which opportunity is right for you before you hand over any cash.
Does anyone want what you are selling?
2.The company will sent the product directly to the customer.You do not want a garage full of product that you are waiting to ship.
3.The company should have a easy to navigate back office that will show the status of all your customers and distributors.Where are order is,how many people your downline has signed up in the last month.
4.The company should be reputable and preferably listed on the Stock Exchange so that it's accounts are easy to obtain.The accounts should show a strong cash flow and balance sheet.
Is the company global?
6.What is the entry cost?Some price points are very high thousands of dollars.So firstly can you afford it?Secondly it it much harder to sell a more expensive item than one that is cheap.Are you up for that?
7.How much freedom will the company give you to market online.Some will not allow you to mention their name in social media like Twitter or Facebook,and personal websites have to be vetted and approved-for a fee of course.Best not to mention the company at all until you are talking offline with a prospect.
8.The compensation plan.These vary and are often difficult to understand,but you must know you are going to have to build a substantial downline before you get to a passive income big enough for you to live off.
9.Who is your upline and how much training and support is she going to give you.If the first thing they say is "make a list of everyone you know" be afraid ,be very afraid.For they know only "old school " MLM,you however want someone who is internet marketing savvy.
It's all about you
Relying on one source of income from one network marketing company is like being an employee.You get retrenched.Then what do you do?
Yes you want an opportunity to generate income,but building your online presence and learning all the online marketing skills out there will give you the firm foundation on which to build your financial security.
I have gathered together the resources you need to take the next step in marketing online which you can find at my website Networking-pro.com.Learn about social media,autoresponders,social book marking and so much more.I even have a free 7 day video boot camp.
I wish you success
