Choosing The Right Business Can be difficult, today I'm going to
share with you some tips that will ensure you are at the right
place at the right time...
Choosing the right business can be a daunting task for some
people. Especially for those who are starting their own business
for the first time. This industry has been around for many years
and made many people very rich. While the effort you put into a
business of your own is most certainly what you will get out of it,
you must be sure you are making the right decision to get involved
with starting a business. With so many opportunities available how
can you be sure you are choosing the right business?
Choosing the right business is crucial to your success.
Over 92% of home based business owners fail every year for many different
reasons. A big reason is that most people get involved expecting to
make big money right away and never see stick around long enough to
see the results. Another reason is because there are a lot of
companies that never make it off the ground and close their doors
leaving you with nothing. The following secrets of success
will help you be a part of the 8% of individuals who do make
it in the home business world and become a part of the top 1% of
money earners in the United States.
1. What Are You Passionate About?
When thinking about getting involved with a home business think of
something you are passionate about. This will help you in the long
run, if you are passionate about a product or service, it's easy to
be passionate about your business and it will be hard to get
discouraged by any negativity that may be around you. If you truly
believe in what you are marketing, your passion will shine through,
others will notice and the results of your efforts will be
reflected tremendously.
Learn why super duper gurus, top leaders, top recruiters and top marketers are catching the Mandura Madness fever. Mandura is the next wave in M-L-M. Mandura is the first company that uses a One Straight Line, Power Line, Forced Matrix for their compensation plan.
2. Evaluate Leadership
Leadership is one of the biggest secrets of success. Look at
the credibility of the owners of an network marketing company before
getting involved. When choosing the right mlm business, consider
the length of time the company has been incorporated, if it's been
around for 6 or 7 years, your chances of making it BIG are slim.
If the owners have a proven track record there is a good chance you
are getting involved with a legitimate opportunity and you can rest
assured the company will be around for years to come.
I would also evaluate the leadership abilities of your upline
sponsor. How readily available is your upline sponsor if you need
help? If you don't have a phone number and an email address I would
be wary of the leadership above you. You want to be sure you are
going to be able to get a hold of your upline for support or your
business is doomed.
3. Evaluate The System and Training
This step is a very crucial step to your success.
Be sure that the team you are choosing has some type of system and
ongoing education to ensure your success. I wouldn't join anyone who
doesn't have a clearly defined direction for their new
representatives. When choosing the right business, you must
understand the products and services that you are marketing or it
does you no good to have a business of your own. Evaluate the
marketing tools that are available to you and make sure there is
some type of marketing system for obtaining leads. Without tools
and a system it will be hard to find prospects to market your
product or service to and you are risking the chance of being a
statistic in the 98% of those who fail.
4. Quality Of Products And Residual Income
Residual income is the reason why most people get involved with a
home based business. It ensures our income keeps coming in when we are
ready to stop working. The quality of the product or service you
are marketing is the key to a repeat sale in order to create a
solid residual income. Again, I would say be sure you are
passionate about what you are marketing and you won't have to worry
5. Evaluate Yourself
You have to ask yourself is now the right time for you get involved
with a business of your own? Is it the right time for you to be
doing something? You must understand that getting involved with a
business takes hard work, dedication, commitment, heart and desire.
Be prepared to make sacrifices. Being successful is not easy and if
you aren't prepared to make a few sacrifices you will be heavily
disappointed. If you aren't ready and don't have all of these
things, it's probably not the right time to get involved.
Once you have evaluated your opportunity and committed yourself to
getting involved you should be very pleased with your results. If
you are truly passionate and give your all, it will be virtually
impossible for you to fail. Be confident that you have chosen the
right business. While a home based business isn't for everyone, it
has proven, for those who have selected it, to be a very effective
way to create an alternate stream of revenue without the expense of
a traditional business.

What Is Postioning in Network Marketing
What's positioning?
It's a marketing technique used by every successful marketer, guru, personality, and successsful business on the planet.
And, it can be used by any Network Marketer. In fact, all the big dogs within the industry use this technique everyday to build their businesses.
Okay, okay...but what is ist?
Positioning is simply this:
Defining you target market and what they're looking for and placing yourself and your product in the pathway of their search
Defining your target market is easy.
To do this you need to understand your product and its benefits. Now figure out what particular group of people are looking for those benefits and where they're looking. The Internet? Magazines? You bet.
Next, use the tools of marketing (the phone, the Internet, etc...) to "place" yourself (position yourself) in between your target market and the benefits they are seeking.
Can I give you an example?
Let's say you're marketing a telecom product. Your target market consists of people who are looking to switch providers. All you do is place yourself and your product infront of those people.The key is to target the people who are already looking for the benefits your product delivers.

Where Do You Start?
Almost everyone has aspirations of becoming self employed and independently wealthy. The image of not having an employer and being totally in control of one's time and money has caused millions to take the plunge into the world of entrepreneurship.
Some have succeeded but many have fallen short. Observations of business failures frighten many away from envisioning their dreams. Most individuals and businesses fail due to a lack of knowledge in creative marketing; a skill that ultimately results in leads that are then converted to paying customers
What do you do when all the pieces are in place for the perfect business You have to let the world know how to get to your store before they can buy your product.
You need hundreds of people coming to your store right NOW! You need a marketing plan. Most businesses fold within the first year because the bills keep coming and the income doesn't keep pace with the business expenses. A successful marketing strategy is critical to your personal and business success.
Sure, word of mouth advertising is a proven successful network marketing plan and everyone in business should use it, BUT IT IS SOOOO SLOW! It's also uncomfortable for some to depend on friends for the growth of a business.

What is Network Marketing
Also known as Multi-level marketing (MLM or Direct Marketing
• A business in which a distributor network is needed to build the business. Usually such businesses are also MLM in nature in that payouts also
• Direct Selling Generates $110 billion worldwide
• Over 300,000 people worldwide joining the direct-selling industry each month
• 61 million people worldwide in the industry doing business in more than 170 countries.
“This Industry gives people the chance to make the most of their lives…”
— Bill Clinton
“…The best investment I ever made.”
— Warren Buffet
“Be in the right place, at the right time, and do something about it.”
— Ray Kroc
Founder of McDonald’s
Three criteria that a network marketing company must meet to make it a most desirable opportunity: They are:
1. Stability: 90% of all network marketing companies fail in the first 18 months. Financial stability is crucial.
2. Ground Floor: Harvard Business School stated that if there were less than 500,000 people involved, you would be on the cutting edge of a great opportunity. If the company has less than 100,000 distributors, Harvard Business School considers it to be a once in a lifetime opportunity.
3. Momentum: This period usually lasts 2 to 4 years also. This is when the company experiences phenomenal growth. Distributorship explodes ....in terms of expanding growth, and during this period a company virtually …..sweeps across the nation. When a company reaches $50 million annually, they reach “critical mass”, Also approximately 2/3 of the company’s growth of new distributors occurs during this period. Let’s assume you have an organization which is producing an override bonus check to you of $1,000 per month. When the company reaches “critical mass”, distributors automatically experience a ten fold increase in their earnings. In other words, $1,000 per month becomes $10,000 per month. This is the reason for getting involved on the ground floor, or as early as possible so you will experience the benefits of explosion growth.
4. Stabilization: This period lasts for the life of the company.
