SIX KEY QUESTIONS TO ASK BEFORE YOU SET UP A NETWORK MARKETING BUSINESS

Network marketing can be exciting and great fun, and it can be highly profitable. However it is also a business in which many people lose heart and fail. No one wants that to happen to you, so I've developed a check list of 6 different questions which you should ask yourself before you make the big decision to start your own Network Marketing business.

Maybe you have just come from a really impressive meeting, at which the business opportunity inspired you to look seriously at becoming involved. That's great, and I wouldn't want to discourage you in any way.

However it is important to remember that a Network Marketing business is indeed a business, just like any other type of business. It doesn't matter whether you're setting up a grocery shop or starting a network marketing business, the same principles apply and need to be taken into account.

With this in mind, I have developed these 6 key questions for you to consider. There is too much material to blog in one go, so I'll discuss the first one below and cover the other 5 in additional entries over the next couple of weeks.


Question 1 - Do You Have Products Which You Believe In?

This might sound like an obvious question, but it's actually very important indeed. If you go ahead with your new business, you are going to be spending a lot of time working with your product range. So it's critical that they're products which you both like and believe in.

If you're not totally committed to your products, you'll find that your business will quickly cease to be enjoyable. And before long, your business will cease to be.....

Equally bad, if you don't totally believe in your products, you're going to feel uncomfortable when you start selling them. No one with principles can last long in a business of that type. And always remember that the sole purpose of every business is to sell its products. In the case of Network Marketing, you will probably also be selling a business opportunity, but this too is a product and will be centered around your product range.

So the first question is very important: do you really believe in the products you'll be selling?

If the answer is "NO", don't go any further. Start looking for a different business. If the answer is "YES", it's time to consider the second question, which I'll discuss here tomorrow.
