10 Questions to Ask Yourself when You Evaluate a Business Opportunity

Are you a bit Confused?

I understand.

There are 100's and 100's of existing Affiliate, Network Marketing / MLM programs on the market today. I know it's mind boggling to any opportunity seeking entrepreneur to sort out.

So let's ask a few questions and see if we can narrow things down a bit.

First, we need to sift through the scams verses the legitimate programs and figure out which one's are best.

Here's a basic first question to filter out questionable programs.

1) Is the company of the product you plan to promote a MEMBER in good standing with the Better Business Bureau, and BBBOnline?

If they are not, it behooves you to question "why not?"

Though I'm not allowed to tell you here (against BBB rules), you can call the local San Diego BBB and ask if Life Force is, or even check it out online at bbb.org.

If the company you're considering passes this elementary test, then it's safe to proceed.

Next, you have to choose your product(s).

There are many product categories to choose from.

2) Do you LOVE the product(s) you're selling over the internet? 

That's the first thing for you to consider. Because it's the entire foundation of YOUR business. The PRODUCTS are the reason the business even exists!

If YOU don't extremely like the products you're marketing, then who else will?

Are YOU really sold?

If not, you're going to have a dickens of a time marketing the product. 

Too many affiliate marketers get dazzled by impressive recruiting systems and good pay plans (which is important) ... BUT, many fail to give much thought to the absolute VITAL importance of the actual products. 

In whatever program you're looking at, look for the "Web Site that SELLS" the program offers you.

Do they offer you a Site that SELLS?

This is SO important that there's a website totally dedicated to this subject at ...

http://sitesells.ipfox.com/

If the product is really good enough, the program will have a site dedicated to the PRODUCT like the "Site that SELLS" you see here. Otherwise, it's a sure indicator to you that their product is not a very desirable product or strong seller. 

The program must offer you ways to show your customers an in-depth detailed description of the products that COMPEL your prospects to want to BUY NOW.

You get that here with our "Sites Content That Sells" ... when you become a full MWG member on Option 3 with Lifee Force.

Never settle for mundane or "me-too" products. 

Be careful not to get swayed by opportunities which preach that "internal consumption" of the products by your affiliates, alone, will be enough to build you a solid business. It's not true.

You, your affiliates, and their affiliates will only order the required volume of a mediocre product (to qualify for maximum commissions) for just so long before you and they eventually QUIT.

Why? Because you, they and their affiliates will not do very well marketing the products. Nobody makes much money. So your empty "pyramid" will eventually UNRAVEL and erode from the bottom up. I've seen it happen many times.

A strong product line is one your affiliates will WANT to buy, no matter the opportunity attached.  

Remember, your best affiliate prospects are REAL businesspeople who are looking for strong programs based on legitimate products that have real demand. They need and want brilliant ways that work to market them ... 

... not some scammy "get rich" program which offers false hope by creating layers of people with very little product movement. 

We want to attract serious self-starting business people, LEADERS, as our affiliates, not some naive and neophyte opportunist who's looking for that elusive "get rich quick overnight" opportunity. I'm sure you'd agree.

Only the serious business person takes marketing the product to heart. We sure do. 

Target THOSE business people. THEY are the hard workers you want.

Keep in mind that the competition for affiliates is increasing.

There are literally thousands of Affiliate and MLM programs each competing for the same affiliate ... while the actual statistics of the number of available "opportunity seekers" have remained rather stagnant over the last few years.

There's more opportunities, per capita, than ever before. This means you must make every affiliate you get COUNT.

HOW?

By helping them move MORE PRODUCT per affiliate. By helping them SUCCEED.

But it takes extraordinary products with smart marketing systems to do that.

So remember, 

" the PRODUCT is the utmost priority for you to consider FIRST."

Without that, you have no solid basis for a long-term business.

3) Can you clearly name the U.S.P.'s of the products you're considering? 

The product(s) you choose MUST be special with a unique selling proposition that the competition can't match.

If you can't specifically name the unique selling propositions, you're going to have a terribly hard time marketing the product(s) ... especially on the internet.

Basically, there are three types of products to market on the internet:

a) Information based products (i.e.: e-books)

b) Services (like web mastering, site promotion, adult, etc.)

c) Hard and soft goods (like the repeat buy "Herbal Body Wrap")

Lets look at ... a) Information based products

I like information based products because I'm a writer.

But it is a fiercely competitive industry. Everybody seems to be marketing 100's of these "marketing e-books" to a confused business-to-business consumer who don't really know which e-books are truly worth the money.

So these products are getting increasingly hard to sell because the market is flooded with similar products.

4) What's the income potential? Can you retire with permanent RESIDUAL income in two years?

No, certainly not by selling information-based products. If you are already in any of these, how much money are you really making doing this? What's the future?

There's a TON more "end-user consumers" than there are "business-to-business consumers." Have you ever considered appealing to this much, much bigger consumer audience?

When I got involved in internet marketing, I got involved to be able to automate my business, and make RESIDUAL income on repeat sales.

Continue asking yourself more questions:



PERMANENT HAPPY CUSTOMERS ... 


5) Does the affiliate program you're investigating (or in) give you credit for the sales to your customer YOU found ... for LIFE? 

In other words, do you make commissions off the sale every time the customer picks up the phone or order online? That's only fair isn't it? Or are they just a one-time-sale customer? Then the owner of the affiliate program keeps the profits on YOUR customer on all future sales. Not too fair, is it?

With the Life Force program, your customer is always linked to YOU every time they buy any of Life Force's products. You keep them FOREVER!

REPEATABILITY ...

Another VITAL strategy for expansion and profit is to consider CONSUMABILITY. 

6) Are the products you're selling such that the consumer has to buy and RE-buy the same product over and over ... preferably on a MONTHLY basis?

As much as I like information-based products, you can only sell that same product only ONCE to the same customer. 

But Life Force THIRTEEN CONSUMABLE products that consumers use each month, over and over.

More carefully thought out in-demand products are constantly being added too. 

So you get lots of back-end sales automatically that are REPEATEDLY purchased every month, month after month.

Your customers are already PRE-sold on buying the rest of the product-line after they get results with products such as Body Balance, Colon Cleanse, or the Herbal Body Wrap formula.

As you can see, REPEAT SALES of in-demand consumables are the optimum product-line for your long-term growth, stability, and profits.

Why deal with the pressure of always hunting for new customers to buy a ONE-TIME only product if you don't have to?

It's just too much stress, a lot harder work, and not nearly as profitable for you.

INSTEAD, work on getting "regulars" and keeping them coming back for MORE.

So your income keeps growing each month exponentially as you add new customers to your continued growing customer base. 

Work less and make MORE!

It's just smarter to make your marketing life a LOT easier with monthly CONSUMABLES, don't you think?

COMPANY STABILITY ...

7) How long has the company been in business selling the products?

If you put a lot of work into this, you want to make sure the company stays around so you get paid AND paid ON TIME. What's the company's history?

Life Force / Dr's Signature has been around since 1981 marketing these PROVEN products. That's a 22-year history ... yet virtually nobody has heard of them. That spells lots of profit potential for you.

With such a proven company track record, it behooves you and I to spend our time marketing products that we know people will buy over and over again.

For your information, Life Force founder, Wayne Hillman, originally sold these products exclusively to Doctors. It wasn't until 15 years later when they decided
to open up to all markets except for the big retail store channel.  

PROVEN PRODUCT ...

8) Are the products PROVEN Sellers?

I shouldn't even have to mention this but you'd be surprised at how many people will try to promote an UN-proven product. Are you willing to take that risk when there are other products available to market that are time-proven sellers?

Not me. I want products that make people happy, where they come back for MORE and MORE. Obviously that's the smartest way to market.

Never tried consumer oriented CONSUMABLE products?

Reconsider ...

The weight loss industry alone is a 33-billion dollar a year market. Herbal Body Wraps are a large and growing "niche" market with relatively very few competitors.

Everybody wants instant product-results NOW. 

AND Herbal Body Wrap fulfills that consumer demand for instant self-gratification. This product proves to them right away that Life Force products WORK. 

Interestingly, Herbal Body Wrap bridges the gap between the Vanity industry and the Health industry. You end up turning NEW people who, before, may have just want to look better ... into health conscious consumers.

So Herbal Body Wrap helps you CREATE a brand new market. 

There's a huge demand for Life Forces' other 12 products too but Herbal Body Wrap is the perfect "leader" into back-door sales of their other health products.

Actually, Herbal Body Wrap is "only" the #3 seller for Life Force. That's because their existing affiliates haven't figured out how to market it right. But ...

I HAVE. :-)

I already know Herbal Body Wrap is the best product to LEAD with.

(Incidentally, Life Forces #1 seller is their liquid nutritional Body Balance.) 

You'll be flabbergasted at how much attention Herbal Body Wrap gets as soon as you mention what it does. Try it, you'll see. People can't believe it. But they can't resist the temptation to give the product a try.

So go right ahead. Talk about it. You'll get an immediate feel of the demand for it.

Virtually everybody wants it, or knows somebody who does, even weight trainers.

Do you REALLY know what you've got a hold of here?

Go ahead, do a search using the keyword "body wrap". You'll easily find our biggest body wrap competitor whom charges $7,500 for a minimum starting inventory and a whopping $7,500 per 25,000 population territory.

(See for yourself. I did. The above are actual license and territorial costs which were expected of me before I could get involved with them. Let me know if you'd like faxed copies of this.)

But why pay a minimum $15,000 fee to our competitor when you can get, essentially, the same (actually better) opportunity for FREE with Life Force? 

Life Force has a comparable product (better in my opinion) PLUS many more consumable products to make lots of money with which our competitors don't have.

The only reason a business person would ever fork over that much dough to these competitors is simply because they don't know about Life Force yet.

The Life Force opportunity has MUCH more potential because you can also build a large sales organization too who market the products for you. 

Also, our competitor doesn't offer RESIDUAL retirement income either. So you'll always have to trade your time for money with them to make money.

With them, your work will never end.

That's not the case with Life Force. Once you build up your Life Force business, you can take a month (or more) vacation without working or worrying that your business will fall apart while you're gone.

9) Does the business you're doing or considering offer you "Walk Away Income?"

Business people are always screaming for more time for themselves. Who wants to work 80 hours a week babysitting their business?

You don't have to with a Life Force business. 

In fact, you can even eventually take the rest of your life off if you like.

What other business opportunity allows you to eventually spend the rest of your life off ... not forced to work? 

How would you like to work 2 years and take the rest of your life off?

(Note: Our competitors don't offer anything like our free "Retail Site Content That Sells" website  ... like this one ... to help you grow either. You get an "UNfair" advantage over our competition with our strong support team and effective tools.)

The only reason our competition can get away with charging outrageous license fees and large starting inventories is because they know the DEMAND is there for this type of hot product ... Body Wraps. 

(... AND the unfortunate business opportunist who bought into their franchise doesn't know yet they can market Life Force for FREE. Once they find out though, they'll be joining YOU ... and not be paying the competitors for the "privilege".)

You see what kind of HOT SELLER you've got a hold of here?

You have a product that's in far more demand than you ever dreamed a product could be. All it takes is clearly getting the message out. That's where smart marketing comes in ... like using a content of this entire site once you join my downline and get on Option 3 with Life Force.

THAT is where I can help you. I help you market. You get help to really sell.

Incidentally, the competition's product doesn't do nearly everything Herbal Body Wrap does either! :-)

(Note: Some people decide to use Herbal Body Wrap so they can do Body Wraps for others and make instant income. Typical prices charged are $75-$125 for each wrap. THAT is even another avenue for fast cash and full-time income using this product alone. This is one of our "LOCAL" money making systems.)

Besides making money on your own sales, AND your affiliates' sales on Herbal Body Wrap, remember, you get commissions on the entire company's product line.

MARKETING SUPPORT ...

10) Is the marketing support you get for building your business EFFECTIVE?

Most affiliate programs provide some sort of marketing support. But here's where you should proceed with CAUTION and ask ...

" Does this program offer realistic marketing systems?"

Also, what about your affiliate "sponsor" who introduced you to the program?

WHO are they? Where are they? Are they giving you good, if ANY, support?

IF they are, does their "help" really make you money?

When you're competing against thousands of affiliates who are marketing the same product, you better have a smart way to separate yourself from the rest of the pack. 

You need exclusivity.

You get that here with our support.

Myself, and my affiliate "upline" have several support systems to help you better market the Life Force brand of products, and recruit others to market the products.

We're using successful ideas nobody else is doing which I'll tell you more in a minute.

Not only do you get paid on your own growing customer base ... you also get paid on the customer base of those you recruit. So you get another way to build your business exponentially. It's just like compounding interest. 

Because of this three "tier" (level) program, and additional bonuses on further levels down, you have a good opportunity to make significant monthly income ... even residual retirement income.

Many others are making $25,000 and more a month doing this. 

I can name names. For example; Brian McMullen only 26, is making over $40,000 a month. You won't make that overnight (it took him a year and a half) but it's very possible for you too ... provided you work smart and hard. Brian didn't have all the systems we have at his disposal, either.  

Of course, if you just want some part-time income of a couple thousand a month, that's fine too.

In order for this additional method of making money (by recruiting your own marketing/sales organization) to succeed, and become profitable for you and your recruited affiliates, you must have successful systems in place to provide for your affiliates ... 

... so they succeed at truly SELLING the products.

Because no product movement? ... no profits! It's useless for you to have affiliates without them making sales.

So we provide systems that SELL products for you and your affiliates so everybody profits ... like allowing you to use the same content you see on this site.

MWG and our other systems help you recruit affiliates to build you a large marketing organization that will pay you residual income ... even after you stopped working.

"I have been involved with several network marketing affiliate companies over the past three years, so when I joined Life Force I was skeptical on how it would work. But using the systems we have, I have been able to build a affiliate organization of 700 people in seven months. My checks have gone up every month and I am making more money than I have ever made before. I love Life Force and the Freedom Support Group."
