How Your Network Marketing Home Based Business Stacks Up

So how does your network marketing home based business stack-up against all of the other ones? Is it legitimate?

You want your network marketing company to deliver quality products (and/or services) and a mean for you to generate a good source of income. In order to do this, the company has to be strong and reliable. That strength and reliability must come from all facets of the business: financial, corporate, products/services, marketing, and support services.

The following 20 questions can assist you in determining the strength and reliability of a company's network marketing home based business program.

1. How long has the company been in business? Ninety-five percent of ALL companies fail in their first year. A general rule of thumb is to look for a company that has been around for at least five years.

3. Have company sales been consistently growing exponentially?

4. Does the company have an international presence?

5. Does the company management team have a proven track record?

6. When marketing their program, does the company disclose about who they are? Some companies try to hide their identity - there is no reason to do so if the program, products and services are legitimate.

7. Does the company have a written, clearly defined code of ethics that it will enforce?

8. Does the company provide direct access to the vice presidents, managers, and supervisors?
