subject: The Best Mlm Opportunity, Which Ones To Choose? [print this page] A MLM Opportunity is a network marketing company where products and/or services are rendered through the work of commission based representatives in a tiered paid structure. Reps in the business are compensated for their own sales and also the sales of those they train in their own mlm downline. The benefit of this business model is that anyone can come in and generate a very healthy income just by making some direct sales and managing a team of other reps who make sales. Since this is strictly a commissioned based industry, only those who can make sales and teach others in their mlm downline to do the same will stay profitable in this type of business.
Don't get a MLM Opportunity confused with a job.
A job is trading time for money where a top network marketing company is leveraging your time and a portion of your mlm downline's time to generate sales volume. This type of leverage allows more freedom in life as you will still be making money when your not actively working.
It's the theory of why 100% of your time isn't as effective as 1% of 100 people.
So what is the Best of the Best? Which MLM Opportunity do I really believe is the best?
1) How much competition is out there?
It's competition from competing companies in the same market place. Are you going to be able to cut through the clutter and really show why your juice is better?
How many reps are there in the company? These reps could potentially steal your ideal prospects if you're not working fast enough. Rep saturation is a problem especially offline if everyone in your town has been exposed to your opportunity already. Example Amway.
2) How easy is it to sell?
Many reps in the industry fall into the trap set by their upline that this is not selling but sharing. I'm sorry, that is a load of crap.
If you are in a network marketing company or looking to join one you are only there as a paid commissioned rep to move volume. That's it. Plain and simple. Sure you can sugar coat it that you're "sharing" the opportunity, but in the end you need to move volume. Volume only comes when you are aggressive in marketing your home business and products/services.
So this leads us to "How easy is it to sell"?
Let's say you have found a juice that helped your diabetes. So you feel if this juice is the real deal you wanted to go ahead and make a living out of it. If you were aggressive in your approach and were able to get in front of a target audience of other diabetics then this product would sell.
But what are the chances you will be able to sell enough? That is the real question.
What do you make on personal sales? If the sale isn't easy, why are you spending so much time convincing people? Shouldn't your products sell themselves?
If your product was universally understood how much easier would it be to move?
Are you giving away your product as samples or are people waiting in line to take your products?
See if my product was at a trade show I would NEVER give my product away as samples where other companies would want to give away free samples. My business Opportunity is self explanatory in that I don't have to convince someone they NEED or WANT it.
3) Are you trying to move a Traditional MLM Opportunity Online?
I teach many reps in different mlm opportunities on how to build their business with online marketing strategies. This ranges from teaching video marketing to more advanced pay per click skills. In a perfect world every single company can make it online but...
Every Single MLM Opportunity is different!
If they were not different then we could just close our eyes and just pick one out of a hat.
But this is not the case.
The reason we picked or looking to join a network marketing company is because we feel it has the best chance of making us money. But sometimes we forget some simple principles.
Conversions online and offline will always be dependent on the company and products being sold.
Are you promoting the business to make them money even though it's hard to do online without home parties or are you trying to make you money? Remember, stick with the reason why you're doing the business.
