Online Business Opportunities
– What To Look For
This is a fairly brief description on what to look for in online business opportunities, but they are foremost in my mind. Your thoughts and recommendations would be appreciated.
You can read more about my involvement with business online on the About page of this site.

∗ Support – The company should be accessible. Communication with other associates and an active support forum are good signs.
∗ Established methods for your success should be outlined.
∗ Access to upline and/or downline (if applicable).
∗ Commission Tracking – real time reports showing everything earned to date. Payment methods and payment times should be clear.
∗ Membership fees and other. – Member fees can be justified in many conditions. You can’t always expect to earn money without an investment. Affiliate programs and other online business opportunities have overhead. Not all affiliates / associates are active and successful (dead weight) and some costs can overwhelm a business if enough revenue is not being generated.
Membership fees can also be justified if some kind of benefit to insure your success is made available. It costs money to run a business and in many cases it takes money to make money. An example would be if the company hosts websites and/or other promotional aids to help you succeed (a detailed back office for instance).
∗ Work only two hours a week – No selling – No dealing with customers – Make millions – No way…
Your thoughts and recommendations would be appreciated.
