| Everyone... Beware of the Fluff. They | | | | out there? It just seems like there is |
| seem like great companies, they have a | | | | so many junk companies on the internet, |
| good sales pitch and their comp plan | | | | how do you what is good and what is not? |
| looks good too. They have big corporate | | | | Some of these companies above actually |
| offices and have been around for years. | | | | have a good product, but I would never |
| Isn't that good? Any company out there | | | | go in business with them. So, how do I |
| that sells products like lotions, | | | | choose a business that I can profit from |
| potions, pills, miracle juices or | | | | and that I can be proud to represent? |
| miracle gas saving products usually | | | | When I evaluate a company, I look for |
| doesn't work for the average person for | | | | these key points. Keep in mind, when I |
| many reasons. Those companies usually | | | | join a company, my #1 goal is to make |
| make most of their money from you, the | | | | money and to do it legitimately. I do |
| distributor, not from selling the | | | | not want to hurt anyone or rip anyone |
| products. They have you on auto ship, so | | | | off. This is what I've learned and these |
| you are their income. They only pay | | | | guidelines will help you determine what |
| about 2% to 15% so many levels deep. | | | | company is right for you. If you are not |
| They will tell you that when you fill | | | | making at least 75% of the upfront |
| the matrix, you won't have to do | | | | commission when you make a sale, forget |
| anything and you'll be making 20 to 40k | | | | it. This means that you are doing all |
| a month. The truth is, there are so many | | | | the work and the company and/or the |
| loop holes to their comp plans that no | | | | person above you is making all the |
| body ever reaches those levels. You | | | | money. If you have to have 1000, 10,000 |
| either will have too many people on your | | | | or 20,000 people in your organization |
| left, but not enough on your right side | | | | before you make any real money. DO NOT |
| to make the higher level payouts. They | | | | Join. Most people will NEVER get there. |
| tell you that you need more personal | | | | If they teach you to hold home parties |
| volume and your group volume is fine or | | | | and invite all your friends. Run away |
| vice versa, or my favorite, you had | | | | fast. If they have a sales pitch 2-3 |
| fallout this month, so you no longer | | | | times a day and only 2-3 training |
| qualify for that car bonus we promised | | | | classes per week. This means that the |
| you about. They make you hold home | | | | company is more interested in selling |
| parties to push your crap on your | | | | you than training you how to make money |
| friends. Listen to me…..If I wanted | | | | long term If you can't break even or get |
| weight loss, I'd go to GNC. If I wanted | | | | into profit with 3 sales, forget it. If |
| Lotions, I'd go to CVS, Save on, | | | | you can't speak with the owners or the |
| Nordstrom or Bullocks. If I wanted to | | | | corporate office via phone or webinar, |
| put additives in my gas tank, I'd go to | | | | Forget it. I like to know who I am doing |
| Kragen, Chief or Pep Boys and buy a | | | | business with before I will do business |
| product from STP or Penzoil. You get | | | | with them. If it is a start up or in pre |
| what I mean….? They are a copy cat | | | | launch, forget. The chances of these |
| company of the original company. How | | | | companies becoming the next Amway is |
| many companies out there are selling a | | | | about as good as winning the lottery. At |
| juice that is based from the Acai Berry, | | | | least with the lottery, you have a |
| Goji berry or the Mangosteen fruit? How | | | | chance to win once or twice a week. You |
| many of those promise to cure cancer? | | | | might as well go to Vegas and blow your |
| What a joke? Is our society that | | | | money on a good time. At least you'll |
| ignorant that if something actually | | | | have some great memories, see a great |
| cured cancer, wouldn't we want to check | | | | show and have a great meal. These are |
| it out? How many travel companies are | | | | not all the rules for success on the |
| there now? How many fuel additives are | | | | internet, but this is a great guideline |
| there now? How many of those have been | | | | to follow when evaluating an internet |
| shut down? How many make up, skin | | | | company. |
