Thinking of starting a home based business? – Read this first.There are lots of people these days looking to start there own home based businessdue to the state of the economy, lots of redundancy’s, house prices in free falletc. There are 100s of different opportunities out there for you to do. But whichis the one you should choose. I wanted to write this not to get you in to myopportunity, that’s not what this about, but to give you an insight in to what youshould be looking for.Here are some guidelines that you should be sticking to when looking into one ofthese opportunities. They are in order of importance and you may or may not agreewith them but here is what you need to look for.1)The first thing and the most important thing you need to look at is YOU.That’s right you are the single most important factor in the whole business. Youare the one who has to the work. Far too many people come into these businesseswith the attitude that they are doing the person that introduced them to it afavour by signing up. Let me tell you, you need me more than I need you sinceyou’re the one who needs to make more money or what ever your reason. Also are youprepared to learn new things, do things that you’re not combatable doing, takeknock backs and disappointment. Are you prepared to do whatever it takes toachieve your goals, if the answer is ‘no’ then stop reading now and find somethingbetter to do with your time.2)The second thing you need to look at is why you want to do this business isthe support that you are going get from your upline (the person who sponsors you).How is your upline going to help and support you, do they have a system in placethat will help make your business successful. If they don’t have a system how doyou think your business venture will end. Ask them out right how they developleads and how they pay for those leads. Good tip here you should never pay forleads. Also Google there name and see what they are up to online, see what kind ofperson they are, you will be surprised.3)The third thing is the training that the company provides. Do they havelocal and national training, website training, who are the leaders who give thetraining? Will you be trained about the products and how to build a business. Willyour upline show you how to use the internet to bring in business. What resourcesdo they use and do they have a system that you can duplicate.4)Find out about the marketing plan and how you will make money. Can yourupline train you so that you will be able to stand on your own two feet and makean income.5)Next we come to the products, you don’t need to try the products to see ifyou like them unless you plan on being your only customer. You don’t have to beexcited about them or like them, do you think that a man who sells women’s shoestries the product first, or someone who sells nuts and bolts gets excited aboutit. The products are there to help solve a problem that’s it. The best thing to dois get your family and friend’s opinion of them by letting them use them and youwill get a much better overview of the products. All you really need to know aboutthe products is what are they and can you use them.6)Find out about the sales kit. Yes this will cost you some money, there is nosuch thing as a FREE lunch, get over it. This is an investment in your future,most people will pay into a pension that is more than likely not worth the paperit is written on and not bat an eye lid. Ask what is in the pack and can you usethe products.
