Where to Begin
First of all you must be warned that there are thousands of get rich quick schemes and scams calling themselves network marketers. Be very careful and read everything with a critical eye. Go with your instincts and know that if it sounds too good to be true, it likely is.
What to Look For
Before learning anything about the company's MLM compensation plan get a clear understanding of what products or services that company is selling. These products should be available to the public without any hidden costs and you should be able to purchase their products or services without having to sign as a new rep.
Also be suspicious of any network marketing program that requires you to make bulk purchases of inventory up front. Chances are you'll get stuck holding the bill for that inventory and won't have much success in selling it. If the company believes in their products, the wouldn't be worried about your buying inventory from them up front.
Another red flag is that the sole purpose of the company seems to depend on recruiting as opposed to selling their products. These businesses have the distinct odor of a pyramid scheme. Not only are these businesses illegal, you have only the slimmest chance of ever making a profit.
Taking all this into account, the reassuring facts are that most network marketing businesses are legitimate business opportunities. You might even want to consider some of the newer networks often called Top Tier approaches. These new programs address some of the struggles the MLM market has had recently.
Due Diligence
Like with any important business decision, finding the best MLM program or alternative network marketing programs like Top Tier requires due diligence. Learn everything you can about your options before making a choice to invest your money and time with a new program. With a well-rounded understanding of your options and a willingness to try some new approaches, your business will be turned around in no time. Good luck!
