There
are several advantages to network marketing opportunities. Most of them
are more personal than business, but, they are advantages all the same:


•    Increased personal time – it is the desire of most of us to have
an abundance of time for ourselves and family. Network marketing
affords the opportunity to do so.


•    Working from home – the ability to do business from home is
attractive within itself. But, the choice of whether to leave the house
or not (avoiding the need to gas up the vehicle) is an advantage that
makes working from home enticing.


•    Creating a personal and business schedule – developing sound
schedules that foster relationships personally and generate repeat business professionally due to consistency and commitment is crucial.


•    Income control – the ability to control the amount of income made is unique with network marketing opportunities. The amount of time put in on the job is a good indicator of the amount of money that will be made.


The Right Personality Traits


Drive, confidence, knowledge, persistence, light aggression and
tolerance are all traits that are generally evident in those who
participate in network marketing opportunities.
If
you are driven to get a certain amount of people or money; if you are
persistent when turned down; if you're aggressive enough to go get what
you want, or if you can tolerate excuses, then this business might be a
good fit for you.


The Nature of the Business


Because of the nature of the business, i.e. the length of time in
industry, product knowledge, etc., perspective clients remain uncertain.
Only with proven performance and guaranteed return at some level, does
uncertainty turn into certainty. So, it is incumbent upon the investor
to know the product and be able to present it with a certain amount of
confidence and knowledge in an effort to get the business.
