A lot of people jump from one network marketing company to another in pursuit of the best home based business. The only problem with that is that there is no “best home based business”. What would the criteria be when everybody is different?
While there isn’t an overall best home based business that meets everyone’s requirements, there probably is one for you that meets just your requirements. Instead of always looking for the latest and greatest, look for something that you enjoy, something that satisfies your interests. If you are with a network marketing company that is in alignment with your passions then you will be more successful in selling product and finding people to join your team.
You don’t have to chase a pre-launch, ground-floor opportunity to be successful in network marketing. Some people still consider Nikken, the company I am with, a ground-floor opportunity because less than 1% of people in the US have heard of the company even though they have been around for 35 years and in the US for 20. Statistically speaking, new businesses have a high failure rate whether they are network marketing companies or any other, so if high risk is OK with you then a new company may be right. On the other hand, if you are looking for a stable opportunity then you should probably look at better established companies.
The compensation plan always factors pretty high in people’s requirements for a network marketing opportunity. Some are binary, some are unilevel, and most are a mix of different things. They can get pretty complex. Find a company that has a plan that you can understand. You need to know how you make money with your new business. Nikken has a pretty simple compensation plan that rewards retail sales of product, recruiting people into your team, and helping your people recruit people into their teams.
I elaborated on some of these points in a post on my network marketing blog site.
