Thinking of joining a Network Marketing company or starting your
own? Many companies have found this to
be an extremely profitable marketing method.
Companies such as Shacklee, GNLD and Amway have been operating this way
for more than 50 years.
While many network businesses market themselves as “non-selling”
groups, you need to know that selling or “sharing” is essential to a successful
career in this type of business.
Fortunately, the Internet can help anyone with a willingness to work
hard to be a top earner without strong selling skills.
- The first and most important step for the beginner is to choose a company that provides top notch training. This is critical! And don’t be fooled by thinking that you won’t have to put a great deal of effort into the education side.

There are many products and services available to
the new Internet Marketer. Make sure you
choose a company whose products or services you already know and respect or
that you would buy yourself.
Be sure that there aren’t territory
restrictions. The Internet has opened up
the world’s population to your product or opportunity so you shouldn’t join a
company that limit’s your audience.
Make it a point to work with a company that will
provide a mentor or coach to help you with the training and advice you will
surely need. Regular education sessions
and webinars will be invaluable as you move forward. Mastermind groups can also provide
brainstorming and encouragement. Most
companies won’t require you to have experience or qualifications for you to
join but the community connection is so important.
There are several types of companies in the marketplace but they
really break down into 2. The first is a
product based company where something is sold or purchased and often
consumed. Companies in this category are
Amway, Shaklee, Zija and others and will require a small to medium size buy in
and many require their distributors to ship or deliver the merchandise. Make sure you understand this element before
joining. The second type of company is a
service company where services such as technology, education, training, etc.
are offered. Companies such as MLSP,
Talk Fusion, Empower Network and others provide tools and education. In this category, the initial investment is
small with a monthly fee for continuing updates and information.
Network Marketing requires a lot of energy and patience but the
success stories are many and the industry is constantly creating tremendous
success stories.
Let’s sum up the positives and negatives.
