More on Evaluating Network Marketing

So how do you identify the best MLM's, those Top Picks? Here's the litmus test I use: Would a real person buy this product or service at the price being offered to the end user even if they couldn't earn a penney by being associated with it?

It can be a premium product at a premium price, but it needs to be unique and at a reasonable price even if it's a premium product.

Here's the second test I use: Could a distributor make a living just selling the product if they never recruited anyone? Not everyone can sell, but *could* a living be made by simply selling the product? (Yes that still applies whether you're MLM sells shampoo, vitamins or financial products. And in the best companies, this is still completely "doable".)

Hey! Thanks for linking to my article.

Great comment on MLM's. Another thing to consider is that any business choice should begin with a marketing plan and a business plan. If you were purchasing a franchise you wouldnt set up a Mcdonalds down the street from another one, nor would mcDonalds let you. So when your avon lady tries to recruit you, stop and think, hey there is already one here!!!

I Thought this was a very good post. I think they are good test.
Also be sure to join a mlm team that has a good duplication system.
