Important Pointers for Moms about to Join a Network Marketing Company

I can completely empathize with your situation as I am a mom too.

Like many other moms around the world, you would like to contribute to your family’s income. It could so happen that a friend or relative has introduced you to an opportunity, and what is really bothering you is the doubt where it could it be a scam? There are innumerable network marketing companies and it’s true that not all of them are genuine. However, you will need to do your homework and thoroughly research your options before striking the final deal. As a mom I would like to guide you and help you choose the best network marketing option.

Is Network Marketing really a scam or is it for real?

The long and short of it is that yes, network marketing is a genuine business opportunity approved by the FTC. Several people have achieved success through this opportunity and all you need to do is recommend people to purchase products and your commissions keep coming in. However you will have to be careful not to get involved in an illegal pyramid, which is a form of scam disguised as network marketing. It is really unfortunate that people tend to mistrust genuine opportunities given that the reputation of network marketing as a whole has become questionable thanks to illegal scams.

Checklist of the TOP 5 things you need to be aware of:

Make good use of your “mom” skills and find out if your chosen network marketing company has all the features to make it real.

1.    How will the money flow in? Any legitimate network marketing company will have a business plan neatly sketched out on paper, and you need to be shown this paper before signing up any business deal.

2.    What will I need to do? The demands of different network marketing companies depend on their requirements. You might either need to host parties in your home, or make cold calls, or indulge in other marketing activities. Make sure you find out what you need to do and whether you are comfortable with it.

3.    How much money will I need to invest per month? This is a crucial question as different businesses will have different costs, and you will need to decide how much you are willing to invest in. However, be very careful of companies who claim to charge you no fees or seem to avoid talking about costs.

4.    Will I have any guarantee to get my money back? Many network-marketing companies allow you to try out the work before you decide to finally join the business. If for any reason you decide to move out you have the satisfaction of knowing that you can get your money back.

5.    Where do I find help? One of the perks that come along with network marketing is that you are not on your own and several of the companies provide support and training to help you market a product or line of products. Similar lessons in marketing would cost you a fortune outside the network marketing industry. In network marketing you usually get to work with a mentor or sponsor who is always ready to keep you motivated and inspired.

The truth is with the right time management skills and knowledge about pipeline marketing, you can go far with network marketing.
