Okay, made the decision, I am going into business for myself.

I have been on the fence about what to do. I had tried my own home business before and my results were not only zero profit, but a net loss. I tried Shackley, Oh my God, that was so long ago about 30 to be exact. I just could not get it to work and unlike my sponser I could not afford a garage full of product. I just could not get anyone else interested in the buiness opportunity or product. My next attempt was one24, great product, really liked it but again no one was interested in my product or business opportunity. They viewed it as a pyramid scheme. So after 3 months of making no money, I threw in the towel. The next business opportunity I would attempt would be empower network. That one I had high hopes of making it a success, I could not get my sponser to answer my phone calls or emails. I called support and was told I would have to speak to my sponser. Wow, how am I going to speak to someone who will not answer his phone or email. I even called suppport back to make sure he was still active with empower network. Yeah, they said he was but I don't understand how they could say that when he did not even answer a email or phone call. So three months of donations and not even one hit to my site I quit! I was done. Finished and totally frustrated. I just did not get it. I put loads of hours into trying to get empower network to work for me and I got absolutely no help and did not even get out of the starting box so to speak. So I had to ask myself. If other people were making money at the same ones I had attempted and failed miserably at then what exactly was I doing wrong. After all it had to be me because the only thing these three companies had in common were, (you got it) me! Now not figuring out what I did wrong before, had now became my quest! I had to know how come it seemed others made money on the internet why not me? Well, the first one, I devoted little to no time in it and I got a equal and just reaction. Yet, one 24 I put in the time and effort. Yet, I only signed up one person and did not even make commission on that one sale. Yet with empower network, I did not even get one visitor to the site to even see the offer. Yet, I worked hard to get a result. So hard work was not the issue. So before I attempt this again I need to know a few things. -what product will I choose? -what is the commission plan? (don't want to be paid peanuts) -Is the company stable? How long have they been in existence? What is their debt ratio? How are they ranked with the better business beaurea? -Do they have a system that you can plug into too? (I don't know about you but I would prefer some step by step directions). -Is their system duplicateable? You see I do not want to have a job, I want a business that allows me not only financial freedom but time freedom as well. one where I am not doing the training but the training is so simple a 5 year old could perform them. -It had to be mobile, see I do believe I have a little gypsy in my blood because I have been known to change my zip code more than once. -I also needed a plan that would work because 97% of online businesses fail in their first year. -I would need something that would not only put me in profit quickly but support my business so I could scale up and get it in higher profits quickly. So here is what I decided. I need a business that will supply me with a residual income. I need a platform on which to market that business and bring in new leads. I needed a profit margin that would support the business the next 90 days always using all monies generated to build it toward bigger and bigger profits. I would need quality leads. So who is my target audience? My age group, too old to start a brick and morter business, too young to retire, unable to retire due to economy. they are known as baby boomers. And people who are either already involved in a home business or MLM. I needed a marketing blueprint in which to follow. I have a product in mind for marketing that will most likely reach my target audience. I will share with you whose product I decided to use later. Product selection. Product selection is one of those things that can make or break your business. The best kind of product is one that they are currently using where as you can show them how to not only get it cheaper but earn money while referring others. I have two hot products that I have selected. One is very very hot and the other one sizzles, both products are in industries that do billions in sales annually. Both are backed by stable and secure companies with no debt. The final item I decided that I needed was a high ticket high converting product that will fund my business for the next month if I only have one sale a month. I call this product my business backbone. All three businesses offer a marketing program and plan but I want my own marketing platform one that I know has been proven and when you see it, I know you will agree. It has some of the biggest internet marketers in the business as members. This plan has been forming now for the past 30 days. I will not be able to start my business until May 14th. When I can purchase one marketing platform, my own autoresponder, and 3 membership/distributor packets and licenses. I have elected to use more than one product and market more than one product. I did this because I think it will work to my advantage. I want my own marketing platform so I can split test my ads and their results. I want my own autoresponder because in the long run I think it will save me money. The three products I have choosen are all hot products, with a excellant supportive set up to get even the greenest newbie off the ground quickly. Let's see how this pans out. I will update you with products, links and what I have invested in to start my home business. Hope you have enjoyed this post.
