As you all know there are many companies out there. If you were to Google 'work from home' you would get over 300 million results to sort through! For a newcomer it can be pretty daunting so this list should help and give a few pointers.
1. Your upline. Support, training, mentoring, coaching, whatever you want to call it, it is so very important. A good sponsor will provide reassurance and guide you through the early days and can help to get your business going. The motivation and encouragement are also a huge help. Some people can do well without an upline, some cannot. You choose if you are confident enough to find your own way.
2. Business Tools available. Find out whether you will be able to plug into the internet system in your group or not. It can make a big difference to your business.educationeasy.net lead generation and branding success.
3. Products or services. Make sure they are reliable. They should certainly be consumable so you get re-orders and build your customer base. Are they guaranteed? Are they safe and have they passed the standard regulatory checks? Can you get an unlimited and reliable supply? Most importantly...do they work?
4. Stability of the company. How old is it? Is the company established in its own right? Is it ethical? Is the particular industry flourishing? If you find anything except a positive yes for any of those questions you should think about looking around a bit more.
5. Territory. Will you be limited to a certain area to operate in? A no territory limit is better. Is there room for you to start in your area or is there a market for it? Do some research, it will be time well spent.
6. Entry Fees. If you need to pay a lot of money to join, be careful you are getting a product or training that will bring more than your investment, either in resale value or in knowledge. If you pay small money you should still receive something, whether it be products, training, catalogues, etc.
7. Getting Paid. You should get paid a commission on what you sell and what your recruits sell. You do not want to join a company that pays out solely on how many people you bring in.
8. Buy back Policy. Check that the company or maybe your upline will buy back from you if cannot sell something or you want to quit. They usually will and should do at a discount if the product is as new. You don't want to be left with a room full of product you have no intention of selling.
9. Direct Selling. Make sure the company is registered with the appropriate Direct Selling Agency.
10. Follow your Instincts. Even IF all the points listed are ok but you have a bad feeling, don't join. You are better to follow your gut instincts from the start as the business is YOURS, not the company's and not your upline's. As always, be true to yourself. Be disciplined. Be open-minded. Be moral. Most importantly, enjoy it!
Good Luck!
