10 Tips On Choosing A Good home business

10 Tips On Choosing A Good home business

If you are looking for a good multilevel marketing venture to be a part of and succeed in it, make sure that the following ten points are in order.

  1. Are you convinced with the product that you will have to sell with the business opportunity? If not, there is no reason you should go ahead with it.

  2. Are you convinced of their business plan? Most importantly, have you understood it thoroughly and will you be able to explain it to others in the same way your business representative does it for you? If the business plan is complicated or if you think you will not be able to explain it to others, you can give this one a miss.

  3. Do they insist on some unreasonable membership fee? Most home businesses are low investment opportunities. If you have to spend more than $200 to be a part of the activity, drop it.

  4. You must get a complete kit when you join. It should contain a detailed instruction manual and a manual about the product you will be selling too. It should have several things that can help you promote the product such as stickers, buttons and pins, etc.

  5. How are your immediate upline members? Your leader, the one who explains the business to you when you join, must be friendly and even charismatic. He or she must be able to help you initially in convincing people to join.

  6. Does the business hold seminars to induct more people frequently? Remember that without such contact programs, it will become difficult to bring more members to the network. The physical approach is unbeatable. Also, leaders must be present at these seminars to speak to the people and convince them.

  7. Does the business have an online presence? Without that, you can give all hopes of earning good money. The best way to bring in more people is through the Internet. The business should use these opportunities to the maximum extent.

  8. Do you have enough people to back you and support you, at least initially? Are you a social person? Such things help in getting the initial members. It is a good idea to speak to some people in your immediate circle to find out whether they will support you by joining the network themselves.

  9. Do you have time for the activity? Remember that a business venture is not a get-rich-quick scheme. You have to put in effort. If you cannot, no such activity will work for you.

10. What is the reputation of the company? This is highly important. The products will be sold faster if the company has some reputation. It is difficult to join newbie companies that no one has heard of, unless they have some highly innovative products that people would love to interest themselves in.

About Uplines And Downlines And Moving Upward

About Uplines And Downlines And Moving Upward

MLM stands for Multi Level Marketing. The word itself tells you that there are various levels of people involved here. When you join into the network, you are becoming part of someone’s downline. For you, these people who are present already and are at levels above you are part of your upline. Then, as your enterprise kicks forth and you manage to bring new people into the venture, they become your downline. For them, you are the upline! So, for you, you are at the center of the MLM network – the people above you are your upline and the people below you are your downline. But remember one very important thing – the upline and downline do not stretch indefinitely. All MLM programs are commission based. Whenever a person in the network makes a sale, the commission is earned by members in the upline. There are some levels of members that will earn commissions. Suppose you make a sale. In that case, a commission of that sale will be earned by the members in your upline. But to how many levels? Not all. The commission may be applicable to about three to five levels of members above you, which will depend on the policy of the MLM company. So only these members are in your upline. The members who are higher than these are not in your upline. It works in a similar manner for downlines. You may get commissions for the sales made by three to five levels of people below you, but not lower than that. Of course, different MLM companies have different rules. Hence the limitation on the upline and downline will also differ. This should actually be one of the most important criteria for selecting your MLM opportunity – choose one that has more levels of upline and downline.

Now, your greatest attention when you are in an MLM opportunity is to move upward in your own upline. How do you do that? You cannot physically dislodge the members that are already in higher positions. But when you increase the size of your downline, you automatically gain a higher status. From a Gold Level member, you might become a Platinum Level member. When that happens, even the commissions that you earn will increase. Again, it is not a single person’s effort. Everyone works together to raise your position. The beauty of MLM is that it is a mutually benefiting business. When people work at bringing new members into the fold, they are helping their upline to progress also. That means, you need to be as cooperative with your downline as possible. It is they who basically hold the reins that can propel you upward in the network. Invest In Your Future!  Invest In Yourself! Join My Team Today!
