Home based multi-level (MLM), network marketing or direct sales businesses are only as good as the company behind the products or services a new affiliate will offer, and a steady predictable flow of real customers, not just leads. Focus on opportunities from companies that offer and guarantee the best products, that provide affiliates a long term residual payout plan, and will handle all the tough day-to-day operations and shipping details that rob time from the primary business: getting customers.

Products: It's All About Quality and Repeat Sales

Ultimately, every business rises or falls in direct proportion to whether its products and services provide real value in the marketplace. When evaluating a work at home proposition, consider these issues:

  • Are the products needed, desired or both? Food and good health are universally wanted, in any economy, and necessary for a satisfying life. Many infomercial gadgets are fascinating, but people mostly can live without them.
  • Do they confer real benefits? If people who make up the market perceive an item as benefiting them, they are much more likely to order again, and generate repeat sales.
  • How many products does the company sell? A few is not enough. Look for a branded, consistent variety that appeals to a wide and diverse audience.
  • Are the products safe, legal, ethical, and understandable by—and appealing to—an ordinary individual?
  • Are the products unique or different from or better than their competition? Are they patented? If the products are science-based, as in the case of many nutraceuticals, is there genuine peer-reviewed science behind their claims—or just unfounded assertions?
  • How well have the products sold in the past, and how are they selling now? Are they fairly priced? What is the reorder rate?
  • Does the company support and guide its customers in the use of their products? Avoid companies that hide from customers behind non-functioning 1-800 numbers after the sale .
  • Is the market for the products temporary or permanent? Is the business opportunity ground-floor in an expanding or even exploding industry? Or is it in a mature, dying market?
  • Do other business affiliates actually use they products they promote and sell?

Operations: Who Ships The Products?

In any product-based business, the heavy lifting of `production and fulfillment—making, packing, shipping, distributing—can be complex and burdensome. Ponder these day-to-day operational issues when deciding which opportunity is a good fit, especially if the customer base is global:
