How To Choose The Right Network Marketing Opportunity

By Devon Brown


People are always asking me how I choose which companies to join. Well, in all honesty I have been playing this game so long that it now takes me all of 30 seconds to make up my mind regarding whether or not the company is even worth my time.

Here are a few of the things I look for when considering a company:

1. The company needs to be legit and offer a legit product or

service with mass appeal.

I know I've said before that products don't matter, but if we are going to do this thing right then we might as well offer something some people may actually want. Not to mention the fact that we don't need the headaches from the government's regulatory agencies.

2. The company needs to have a price point of entry with mass

appeal.

In other words it can't cost an arm and a leg to join. What is affordable to Peter is not necessarily cheap to Paul. I may have $10,000 sitting in the bank, and if that's the case then paying $995 or $3,995 to get into a program is easy for me.

But the reality is that most of us don't have that kind of money (at least that amount that they may be willing to risk). I would argue that the best price point is actually anything under $300. This way, most people can afford it. Many very successful people would disagree with me and argue that the higher the price point the more serious the people involved. They would also argue that the higher the price point the larger the commission checks. I agree with them to a certain extent but as far as the masses are concerned, most people don't have $2000 to join and then another $2000 to advertise.

3. The pay plan must allow for fast upfront monies as well as long

term residual monies.

Let's face some reality here folks, if Bob does not get his first paycheck quickly then he is out the door. A company needs to pay weekly bonus checks as well as monthly residual checks (heck, truth be told, its really great when you can even get paid daily). When I used to sell cars I used to get paid 4 or 5 times a month...it was a great feeling and it kept me motivated.

Think of it kind of like someone joining the gym and trying to lose 40 pounds. The reason that most people quit the gym is because they don't see any immediate results and therefore don't get any immediate reward for going. Adult human beings are just like kids and puppies we need to be rewarded quickly for the simplest things at least at first.

4. THE COMPANY MUST HAVE AN AUTOMATED SYSTEM THAT

DOES THE MARKETING, EXPLAINING, SELLING, SIGNUP AND

DUPLICATION.

Every company claims to have this but hear me and hear me well when I say that... "THERE IS NOT ONE AFFORDABLE COMPANY OUT THERE THAT HAS CREATED A TRULY EASY AUTOMATED SYSTEM".

Some companies have come close but no-one (to the best of my knowledge) has really hit the nail on the head. No company has created the ability to have someone sign-up and then push a button that says “do it for me”.

This 4th and final requirement is the piece of the success puzzle that everyone is missing.

Now...don't be fooled by imposters; every company out there claims to have an "automated system" but the small handful of companies that seem to have decent systems usually cost thousands of dollars to join. (Way too expensive for the average person trying to make it)

To be completely honest with you, there is not one company out there that really has it figured out (at least in my opinion).

The biggest piece of advice I can give you is this:

Look at what you had to go through to sign up, if you were chased down by someone or 3-wayed to an upline, or any of that mess, then chances are you will have to do the same thing to get others to join under you.

But, if the system was easy enough and explained everything well enough so that you didn't even have to talk to your upline, then chances are the system as a whole is relatively hands off.

Now please don't get me wrong. I understand with and agree with some of the principles and concepts behind talking to people on the phone and actually creating a relationship with them. But as far as I am concerned, we can become buddies later.
