Don't commit yourself to any business opportunity unless
you fully understand what you are supposed to be doing first.
Some of the key factors as to why people quit and fail....
They don't know what they are supposed
to be doing!
They never ask how to work the business as a business!
They think or may have been told that they don't need to sell or recruit!
They try to market to their friends or family and then fall out with them
because they won't join your team!
They are not prepared to put in the time and money, you will only get
out what you put in!
Some key factors that should not be overlooked....
Ask what you are supposed to do BEFORE you commit yourself to any Multi
Level Marketing programme or business opportunity, maybe go to one of
their meetings, ask to try the products or services free, if you have
to purchase the products or services before any trial note the pricing,
is this the price you would expect to purchase these products or services
for, at say your local supermarket?
Are the products or services better than what you can buy locally anyway?
Would You normally buy these products or services?
Do you think others would buy these products or services without much
prompting?
Is there a product or service?
Be very wary of MLM schemes that do not have products or services or heavily
promote sending automated bulk emails, nobody likes to receive unsolicited
mail, some folks can get very nasty when they receive spam emails as it
adds to their bandwidth usage.
Don't join if you not going to give it everything you've got for at least
2 years and you can take rejection!
Estimate how much money you are prepared to spend over the next two years
promoting, attending functions, purchasing marketing products and literature,
these essential initial outlay costs can mount up and they are part of
working the business, if these initial cost are going to take up all your
profits for the next two years are you prepared to do that?
How much time are you prepared to give each week toward the business,
you're wasting your time if you intend to do only a few hours a week,
you will only get out what you put in!
A business without products or services is not a business, it's usually
a scam!
Therefore if the business does have products or services there must be
either selling, marketing or recruiting involved otherwise the business
will not work!
Are you prepared to sell, collect, despatch, ask for re-orders and payments
for the products and services on a regular basis, or do you expect someone
else to do all this for you and wait for the cheques to roll in? Get real!
To make money in MLM, you have to sell something that may well be over-priced.
And, if that isn't enough of a challenge, you have to recruit a team of
people to also sell the products or services. A lot of online MLM consists
of nothing more than thinly disguised pyramid schemes. They tell you to
recruit new people, and give you a 'website' that is supposed to do the
selling for you. In fact, all that happens is that the new recruit gets
sucked into buying some product or service they neither need nor want,
in the hopes of being able to attract their own team.
Very few of these 'opportunities' offer any realistic training.
Mostly it consists of re-hashed and out-of-date ideas.
Being told to follow-up with your leads may sound like good advice, but
how?
Using auto-responders is great, but how?
Writing ads is important, but how?
There are so many questions, and so much to learn, a person would have
to do a two year college programme to get started. Is it any wonder then
that so many people just simply fail by quitting?
Very few people ever really succeed and ecceed their expectations, less
than 1% in fact. They give up and run away. Nobody ever tells them that
they will need to learn all that stuff. And a lot of it is specialised
knowledge that is very hard to get anywhere else. All that work to sell
an over-priced product?
There are a few opportunities out there that have real products at realistic
prices. The majority of those however use an Affiliate Program. They don't
have several layers of commisions, and the percentages that are paid aren't
too high. There are people out there that make good money on affiliate
programs.
I suppose one could say that there are some pretty awful
tricks in the business, but I think if you answer the questions above
honestly, you should not get suckered into something that you know nothing
about.
Is failure a sure thing for the 99% that don't make it?
Only if they quit before learning exactly what they need to know and need
to do to work the business and to make the business work.
Is it possible to make money fast? Maybe, but only after
you have studied and practiced for a few years, and built up a team that
has also studied and practiced.
MLM's, Work at Home Business Opportunities and Affiliate
Programs etc... Are a job. Nothing More, Nothing
Less . Domainsrush warn people
to be careful... There are a lot of Scams out there! The internet is full
of examples of fraud! Try not to hurt or bother people or spam them. Try
to establish yourself and do business the way it's suppose to be done!
