Beware of the Wolves in Sheep's clothing. They present themselves as solid online marketing companies, have a stimulating sales pitch, and their compensation plan doesn't look too bad either. They have large corporate offices with all kinds of people back there to ensure your success. Sounds nice, yes? Companies that sell products like lotions, potions, pills, miracle juices or miracle gas saving products aren't often to the advantage of the average person for a variety of reasons, some of which are:
The truth of how many loop holes a marketing online company has in their comp program is terrible. They pay roughly 2% to 15% so many levels deep. Then you're told that once you've filled the matrix, the money will just begin to pour in. The reality of not having enough people on your right side or too many on your left makes it virtually impossible to reach the higher level payouts.
The bulk of the money they receive is from you, the distributor, and not from the product at all. They have a program called auto-ship which entitles you, the distributor to purchase product from them at wholesale prices. You are then required to sell said product and, hopefully, make a profit. Once you've paid for the product, they're unconcerned whether you can move it or not. They've already made their profit.
Either you've got too many people on your right and not enough on your left to reach the payouts at the higher level. Or you need more group volume vis a vis your personal volume. Not to mention that free car or vacation you can earn, but your numbers came in just a little below par so you no longer qualify. This too, after you've worked your rear off to qualify, in which they've benefited from your sales.
Home parties have been around for a while as everybody has friends and family they can push this crap on. Who better to obligate? It's really simple... If I wanted weight loss, I'd go to GNC. If I wanted Lotions, I'd go to Save On, Longs, or my favorite Department store. If I wanted to put additives in my gas tank, I'd go to Kragen, Chief or Pep Boys and buy a product from STP or Penzoil. You get the idea..? At least you know what you're paying for and more importantly, what you're getting for your money. You could probably take it back and get a refund as well.
How many online marketing companies offer a cure to a leading illness like cancer?! If these juices made from Acai Berry, Goji berry, Mangsteen fruit or some kind of Marine product can really cure cancer, or any other major sickness, would we be ignoring it? Come on! While I don't disregard that some of these products might have some essential qualities, I wouldn't go into business with them. Not if I want to yield returns.
How do you choose a business, and the right online marketing program, in which you can profit and be satisfied to represent? How do you know which are genuine and which are not? Well, having made the assessment that out of the number of companies on the internet that are simply bogus and only a very few are legit, I offer this simple but effective guideline to use.
There are seven initial key points in assessing an online marketing company. Your #1 goal is to make money, and to make it legally and justifiably, without any underhanded deeds. This guideline will help you assesses and determine which company is right for you.
1. If you have to have 1000, 10,000 or 20,000 people in your organization before you make any real money. DO NOT Join. Most people will NEVER get there.
2. If you are not making at least 75% of the upfront commission when you make a sale, forget it. This means that you are doing all the work and the online marketing company and/or the person above you is making all the money.
3. If you can't speak with the owners or the corporate office via phone or webinar, forget it. I like to know who I am doing business with before I will do business with them.
4. If they teach you to hold home parties and invite all your friends. Run away fast.
5. If it is a start up or in pre launch, forget it. The chances of these companies becoming the next Amway is about as good as winning the lottery. At least with the lottery, you have a chance to win once or twice a week. Spend that money wisely instead-go to Vegas and have a blast, at least the memories will be worth it.
6. If you can't directly contact the owners or the corporate office via phone or webinar, forget it. Do you want to do business with some faceless, voiceless entity? And why are they hiding? If that isn't a red flag, I don't what is.
7. If you can't break even or get into profit with 3 sales, forget it. Remember this one!
Naturally, these are not all the rules for success on the internet, but it is a great guideline to use when accessing and choosing the perfect online marketing company.
