So many Opportunities...

Who is right for me?

If I have noticed one thing in the last five years of Network Marketing, it is that there has been a huge rise in the number of companies out there to choose from. So which one is right for me?

My advice to you… Beware of all that sparkles my friend. They seem like great companies, they have a good sales pitch and their comp plan looks so very tempting too. They have big corporate offices and have been around for years. Isn’t that good? Any company out there that sells products such as, lotions, potions, pills, miracle juices or weight loss products usually doesn’t work for the average person for many reasons.

Those companies usually make most of their money from you, the distributor, not from selling the products. They have you on auto-ship, so you are their income. They only pay about 2% to 15% for so many levels deep, and then they will tell you that when you fill the matrix, you won’t have to do anything and you’ll be making 20 to 40k a month. The truth is, there are so many loopholes to their comp plans that nobody ever reaches those levels. You either will have too many people on your left, but not enough on your right side to make the higher-level payouts. They tell you that you need more personal volume and your group volume is fine or vice versa, or my favorite, you had fallout this month, so you no longer qualify for that car bonus we promised. Oh yes, and they make you hold home parties to push your wonderful products on your friends and family members also.

Listen to me... If I wanted weight loss, I’d go to GNC. If I wanted Lotions, I’d go to CVS, Save-On, Nordstrom or Bullocks. If I wanted to put additives in my gas tank, I’d go to Kragen, Chief Auto or Pep Boys and buy a product from STP or Penzoil. You get what I mean?

There are tons of copycat companies of the original companies. How many companies out there are selling a juice that is based from the Acai Berry, Goji berry or the Mangosteen fruit? How many of those promise to cure cancer? What a joke? Is our society that ignorant that if something actually cured cancer, wouldn’t we want to check it out? How many travel companies are there now? How many fuel additives are there now? How many of those have been shut down? How many make up, skin lotions and vitamin companies are there out there? Give me a break!

It just seems like there is so many companies on the Internet, how do you really know what is good and what is not? Some of these companies actually have a good product, but I would never go in business with them. Get real! I do not want to sell something to people that I know does not work.

So, how do you choose a business that you can profit from, and at the same time, you can be proud to represent?

Which one is right for you?

Let me give you a little background about myself. I am actually an Independent Network Marketing Consultant, a Success Advisor if you will, who helps network marketers to achieve true success in their chosen business. I help networkers gain the knowledge, skills, and training they all need to achieve their goals and build strong, organizations and to duplicate their success!

When I evaluate a company, I look for certain key points. Keep in mind, when I join a company, my #1 goal is to make money and to do it legitimately. I do not want to hurt anyone, act like a used car salesman or rip anyone off. This is what I’ve learned and these guidelines will help you determine what company is right for you.

• If you are not making at least 75% of the upfront commission when you make a sale, forget it. This means that you are doing all the work and the company and/or the person above you is making all the money.
• If you have to have 1000, 10,000 or 20,000 people in your organization before you make any real money. DO NOT JOIN. Most people will NEVER get there. In fact the record shows 97% will fail or drop out due to not making any money.
• If they teach you to hold home parties and invite all your friends. Run away fast.
• If they have a sales pitch 2-3 times a day and only 2-3 training classes per week. This means that the company is more interested in selling you on the training than how to make money long term.
• If you can’t break even or get into profit with 3 sales, forget it.
• If you can’t speak with the owners or the corporate office via phone or via Webinar, Forget it. I like to know just with whom I am doing business with, before I will do business with anyone.
• If it is a start up company or is in pre-launch, forget it. The chance of these companies becoming the next Amway is about as good as winning the BIG lottery. At least with the lottery, you have a chance to win once or twice in a lifetime. You might as well go to Vegas and blow all your money on a good show and week-end on the town. At least you’ll have some great memories, see a great show and have a great meal.

These are not all the rules for success on the Internet, but they area great guidelines to follow when evaluating any Internet company.

Let me give you an example and you can see just what I am talking about.
