MLM And Network Marketing: Join One Company Or Many?
When you’ve made the decision to work from home you’ve made a huge stride in the right direction. However, there are a lot of other choices you’re going to have to make if you really want to make good money from home.
First of all you’ll want to choose a company to join and then you’ll want to find an upline sponsor that you’re comfortable with. Sometimes you find your sponsor by them being the first person from that company to contact you and other times you’ll have to “Shop” for an upline.
Finally you’ll be faced with a decision that almost every home based business owner is faced with at one time or another. Should I join just one company or should I join several and up my chances for success.
I know that the idea of joining lots of different companies might seems like a smart investment but it never is. It’s not like buying multiple lottery tickets and hoping one is the winner because unlike the lottery all home based businesses require work and effort.
When you join more than one company you are splitting your focus and you are actually lowering your chances of ever really being successful in any company.
Most home based business owners already have a lot going on, family, friends, perhaps another full or part time job… the list goes on. So the more you add to that list the more everything else will suffer.
Once you have chosen a company, stick with it. Give your chosen company all your focus and energy for a significant amount of time and you will see results, no doubt about it.
I have often ran across people to promote the idea of joining multiple companies and will tell you that it’s the best way to go. In every instance those people really aren’t successful in any company. So why would you listen to them when you want to know how to be successful.
When you look at the top income earners in every single company I will promise you that not one of them is a part of any other home based business. That’s why they were able to be so successful, because they focused on one business and gave it everything they had.
Finally, the upfront cost of joining multiple companies can really hurt your bank account. Most companies cost hundreds of dollars to get started and it’s worth it because you’re going to be making all that money back. However, if you invest a lot of money and then make hardly any of it back you might be tempted to quit working from home all together.
When you join just one company your investment is much smaller and you are much more likely to succeed. It’s a no brainer really.
So do the best thing for your and your wallet. Join a home based business you can get excited about and stick with it. I promise you will see success!
There are so many great options out there that a person can be passionate about, though. So, maybe we should go with a compromise… Not one, not many… Just a few? Gives you a chance to cover more of the people w/ whom you network and gives you a chance to “test” new programs for potential.
Thanks for stopping by, Mark~
I’m with you. While I think it’s a mistake to go with too many, it’s also a mistake to limit yourself.
